Police Federation of England and Wales (PFEW) 12/10/2022 News Fatal police encounters – it’s not just shootings One of the most critical issues in policing today is citizen deaths that occur as a result of police encounters. Most of the fatal police encounters research tends to focus on fatalities as a direct result of police actions such as fatal shootings. However, there are a wide variety of ways in which fatalities occur during police encounters that may not be due to direct police actions (for example accidents and suicide). This study examines both direct and indirect forms of fatal police encounters. To do this, a chi-squared analysis was conducted of 106 fatal police encounters that occurred across two Australian states. The findings reveal that over three-quarters of fatal police encounters within the data were a result of indirect police actions. These findings highlight the prominence of indirect fatal police encounters and, in turn, the greater opportunity to focus on prevention strategies for these often-neglected deaths in the research. Current Issues in Criminal Justice 12/10/2022 Research article Reforming psychosocial and mental health pathways for young people following initial encounters with police The June 2022 special themed edition of Criminal Behaviour & Mental Health recognised the importance of services for young people struggling to contain their own behaviour, even dangerous behaviour, that are commissioned from outside the criminal justice system. Important issues were raised, and valuable new research evidence published, but, inevitably, some areas were largely untouched. In particular, early intervention options at the point of first contact with the criminal justice system merit further exploration. Here, we outline the potential of police contacts with young people for initial, minor offending behaviour or crime victimisation happening in an alternative setting to police stations and/or police partnering with services commissioned outside criminal justice—for example, by health, social services, or education. We argue that this would enable more focused health and welfare responses that would better safeguard young people and their communities.
