Sunday World (Republic of Ireland) 17/3/2025 News Police-Led Interventions for Deterring Organized Crime: A UK Cluster Randomized Trial Targeting Criminal Network Recruiting and Its Vicarious Effects on Co-Offenders Many United States law enforcement agencies have integrated their crime intelligence and technological capabilities into various ‘centers,’ including fusion centers, crime gun intelligence centers (CGICs), real-time crime centers (RTCCs), and crime information centers (CICs). Yet, despite their rapid diffusion, there is little understanding about the implementation, operations, and efficacy of these centers. This scoping review aims to systematize research on these four center types and identify knowledge gaps. We identified and reviewed 34 studies across 41 academic publications and gray literature. While most studies were methodologically limited, some evidence suggests that CGICs, RTCCs, and CICs can improve criminal investigations of violent crimes, with less information on their ability to prevent crime. There have also been no rigorous evaluations of fusion centers, despite comprising the largest share of studies in our review. We discuss the implications for practice and provide a roadmap for future scholarship.
