Policing Insight - Subscription at source 14/2/2022 Analysis, Feature The Delivery of Death Notifications, Associated Stress and Use of Aftercare in Police Officers: A Mixed-Method Approach The police profession involves numerous risk factors which can have an impact on the officers’ health. Delivering death notifications is one of the most stressful tasks with lack of training and poor aftercare. We analyzed data of 142 German officers regarding their experiences with death notifications, use of aftercare, and access to training. Officers feel most stressed by the interaction with the bereaved and the subjectively perceived lack of competence in dealing with them. Three-quarters would like more support after stressful operations, and over 80% reported the need of aftercare, although this is only offered to 40%. Support services as well as training are rarely used, due to lack of trust and fear of stigmatization. Content perceived as helpful for future training could be identified. The results clearly show the challenges of the police profession and highlight the lack of aftercare. Training and adequate support must be provided and become accessible. Police Practice and Research - Registration at source 14/2/2022 Research article The Effectiveness of Standardized Investigative Tactics in Clearing Non-Fatal Shooting Investigations Much research explores the correlates of clearing fatal shooting incidents. It is suggested that common investigative resources and tactics, such as the number of detectives and witness interviews, may be associated with clearing both fatal and non-fatal shooting cases. This study examines the effect of a standardized list of investigative tools in the clearing of non-fatal shooting incidents. For this study, detectives from the Buffalo Police Department’s Gun Violence Unit completed an “Investigative Checklist” for non-fatal shootings that occurred between November 2019 and December 2020 (N = 234 usable cases). Bivariate correlation analysis shows a strong association between uncooperative victims and a detective conducting multiple canvases as part of the investigation. Logistic regression shows that examining a suspect’s social media information, and detectives accessing patrol car reports, contributed to successfully clearing a non-fatal shooting case. An uncooperative victim was negatively associated with clearing a case. Police practitioners should be aware, based on the findings of this and other research, that a small number of investigative techniques contribute to non-fatal shooting case clearance rates. It may be necessary for police agencies to construct detective units, and focus on a narrow set of investigative tactics, in a way that improved clearance rates in non-fatal shootings.
