Your Chief wants to evaluate your department’s patrol operations effectiveness
The Kansas City study on routine random patrol failed to demonstrate that adding or taking away police patrols from an area made any difference within the community. The conclusions of this study shocked many people and differed from all the assumptions made regarding police patrol. The study, however, was not without criticism. Flaws were cited in the research design, and it was noted that police patrol cannot be measured by a statistical study alone but must be measured by historical experience.
Your Chief wants to evaluate your department’s patrol operations effectiveness and is considering running a repeat of the Kansas City Police Study in your community. The Chief wants your opinion of whether the study will be effective in studying your community’s needs and problems. Prepare a two-page summary to inform your Chief’s decision.
