Addressing Police Misconduct – “Policing the Police”

Описание: We will examine one of the most important and challenging issues in contemporary criminal justice: addressing police misconduct. To support this topic, I have posted a short YouTube lecture titled Policing the Police, which provides an overview of the mechanisms used to regulate, investigate, and hold law enforcement accountable for misconduct.

The lecture explores internal and external oversight strategies, including internal affairs investigations, supervisory accountability, civilian oversight, and policy reform efforts. It also addresses the broader implications of misconduct for public trust, legitimacy, and constitutional policing. The video is designed to reinforce this week’s readings and to help you connect theory, policy, and real-world practice.

Please view the lecture as a supplemental learning resource as you complete this week’s assignments and discussions. The content will help you better analyze reform strategies and evaluate the effectiveness of accountability systems in modern policing.
