Police Oracle - Subscription at source 3/3/2023 News Relationship Between Criminal Intention and Criminal Behavior This study employed the theory of planned behavior to explore the relationship between criminal intention and criminal behavior and the factors influencing them. The present study focused on injury, theft, and drug use, the three most prominent types of criminal behavior in Taiwan. An anonymous online questionnaire survey of male adults was conducted with 864 valid responses returned. The responses revealed that attitudes toward crime, subjective norms, and perceived behavior control effectively predict the intention to injure, steal, or use drugs. Criminal intention effectively predicts the occurrence and the frequency of injury to others, theft, and drug use. Planning and anticipated regret do not moderate the relationship between criminal intention and criminal behavior. The implications of the findings and their practical application are discussed.

Policing Insight - Subscription at source 3/3/2023 Feature, Opinion Sentinel event reviews: applications in criminal justice settings Sentinel event reviews were developed in the medical, military, and aviation fields and involve systematic assessment of the processes that resulted in a critical event such as an unexpected death of a patient or an airplane crash. The sentinel event review is intended to identify system weaknesses that resulted in the negative outcome and to inform corrective actions. Sentinel event reviews have rarely been used in the criminal justice system, although recent years have witnessed experimentation in the use of review processes to examine negative outcomes such as domestic violence homicides and drug overdoses. This study examined the development and implementation of sentinel event review processes in three midwestern cities. The sentinel event reviews built upon existing reviews of shooting incidents and extended those reviews through a systematic approach that involved deeper investigation into specific critical incidents. The research involved participant observation, review of the materials related to the sentinel event reviews, and a small number of key actor interviews. The results suggest that the reviews hold promise for informing decision makers on system weaknesses and for improving criminal justice practices. Yet, they also revealed obstacles to effective implementation and utilization of sentinel event reviews in criminal justice settings. Journal of Crime and Justice - Subscription at source 3/3/2023 Research article Exploring Perceptions of Police Legitimacy: The Role of Family, Friends, and Procedural Justice Since its inception in 1990, Tyler's process-based model of regulation has provided a fundamental framework for understanding why people obey the law. Numerous studies have found support for Tyler's process-based model of regulation, with the majority of research reporting an association between procedural justice and legitimacy. The research is limited, however, in its ability to explain the correlates of legitimacy outside of procedural justice, which is surprising considering research indicates that the development of behaviors and attitudes toward legal institutions and actors is complex. Based on the legal socialization literature, the current study explores how perceptions of police legitimacy may be impacted by family and/or peer views of the police. In order to investigate this relationship, the current exploratory study relies on data from students located at two universities in the United States. The results suggest that family views, peer views, and procedural justice are all significantly related to perceived police legitimacy. These findings are explored and contextualized in the broader literature on police legitimacy.

Police Professional 3/3/2023 News National Chair, Steve Hartshorn, comments on the recent leaked texts from Matt Hancock The leaked texts from Matt Hancock, if true, have revealed a total lack of respect for the police at the very heart of a government that clearly found it acceptable to use derogatory language and negative stereotyping when talking about policing. During the pandemic my colleagues were faced with legislative and legal changes on a weekly basis. They were expected to deal with protest and disorder at the height of Covid-19, yet were not prioritised for the vaccination, like other frontline workers. They faced abuse, assault and were spat at by people who said they had Covid – literally putting their lives and the lives of their families on the line. So, to discover that then Government ministers referred to them as ‘plod’ who ‘got their marching orders’ is an absolute disgrace.
