    BS Criminology 4

    Activity 1

    1. The student will explain the History of Law Enforcement from the earliest
    beginning of policing.
    -The first three features of policing were that it did not usually include
    compulsion. Second, there was a significant distinction to be made between
    those who were legally entrusted with policing tasks and those who really carried
    them out. Last but not least, the police carried out a wide range of duties related
    to crime control and prevention. The era of policing is reffered to as the “Political
    Era of Policing. During the era the police represented the local politicians in the
    neighborhoods that they patrolled and there was no civil service system. The
    police in the United States had to keep the politicians pleased which led the
    police to handle community crime problems that favored the local politicians.
    During this era, police had limited supervision and an enormous amount of
    discretion. Because police officers worked alone or in small groups, there was
    ample opportunities to shake down peddlers and small businesses. Officers
    allowed gamblers, pick pocketers and thieves to go about their business in return
    for a share of proceedings. This structure led to a culture of police corruption and
    a reform was needed.

    2. What are the different policing models introduce in the earliest period?
    - Security orientation—introduced in the period of Bow street runners,
    - the parachial police, and the me chart police, as well as private detective and
    - commercial police—introduced in the period of Anglo- saxon, Westminster,
    and William the conqueror.
    - During the time of the Habeas Corpus Act, problem-oriented policing was
    introduced (1679), and the star chamber of enforcement's courtIn the period
    of Oliver Cromuell's military police, justices of the peace, and old king Henry's
    law, police professionalism was introduced.
    \
    3. What are the significant contributions of the different policing era which
    contributed in the control of crime and felonies?
    - The significant contributions of various policing eras to the control of crime
    and felonies are that they all have the same mission of maintaining peace and
    order in the country, where the police have reconsidered their fundamental
    mission, the nature of core policing strategies, and the nature of their
    relationship with the communities they serve. In order to manage crime in the
    countries, investigations are conducted in order to hold offenders accountable
    for their crimes in the hopes of establishing deterrence through arrest.
