Crime Analysis and Crime Clearance Rates Ans✓✓✓ Research shows
that although the studies showed a relationship between crime analysis
and crime clearance rates, there is no evidence of the causality of this
relationship or whether other, more important factors explain the
difference in crime and clearance rates of the agencies.
Crime analysis is much like using an MRI to diagnosis a problem. It is
not the cure, but an important tool for identifying and
understanding a problem for police to address.
Because crime analysis does not have a direct link to crime reduction, its
role in crime reduction is understood by examining
effective crime reduction strategies by police (i.e., evidence-based
policing) and the role of crime analysis.
Standard Model of Policing Ans✓✓✓ The strategies of the standard
model of policing include the following :
1. Increased number of police officers (to increase the ability to detect
crime and arrest offenders)
2. Unfocused, random motorized patrols (to create a perception of a
police "omnipresence" to deter crime
in public places)
3. Rapid response to calls for service (to increase the likelihood of
catching offenders)
, 4. Follow-up investigations by detectives (to increase the solvability of
the crimes)
5. General reactive arrest policies (to deter and punish specific offenders
as well as deter the general public
from committing crimes)
The standard model of policing has limited effectiveness in reducing
crime. Because it generally applies various tactics such as patrol, arrests,
and investigation, there is little use for crime analysis beyond resources
allocation and providing crime and arrest
statistics.
Community Policing Programs Ans✓✓✓ Specific community policing
programs are limited in their effectiveness in reducing crime and do not
require crime analysis.
Overall, research on community policing is "ambiguous," and better
measurement is required to make more definitive conclusions.
However, there is some evidence that community policing can impact
property crime, but there is little evidence on the impact on
fear of crime. Community policing does affect satisfaction with the
police and legitimacy. The role of crime analysis in the overall
approach is that it provides information to and solicits information from
citizens to support building partnerships and
transparency.
