Keele University 13/5/2020 News Institutionalising restorative justice in the police: Key findings from a study of two English police forces This paper reports the findings of an empirical research project, exploring ongoing attempts to mainstream restorative justice within two English police forces and examining how the police understood and used restorative justice in practice. The findings suggest that two institutional priorities – to satisfy victims and manage the demand on the police’s time – strongly influenced the interpretation and practice of restorative justice. This created tensions as police officers who facilitated restorative justice processes used their discretion to determine, on a case-by-case basis, how best to balance these institutional goals with the restorative goal of stakeholder empowerment. These findings illustrate how the police can implement abstract concepts in a selective, discretionary manner, and enhances the limited empirical literature that explains how existing priorities and embedded ways of working within criminal justice agencies, shape their understanding and use of restorative justice in practice. Such knowledge is crucial, if we are to help maximise the benefits and minimise the risks of restorative justice and restorative policing. The article also introduces the concept of ‘managed empowerment’ to help explain how the tensions between restorative and institutional goals manifested themselves.

Police Federation of England and Wales (PFEW) 13/5/2020 News Why you can’t identify changes in crime by comparing this month to last month Social researchers want to understand how covid-19 and the associated restrictions on daily activities might lead to change in various social processes. There have been many claims about the impact on crime. In Scotland, police reported overall violence fell in April 2020 compared to the year before, but fraud increased, while the frequency of shootings in Boston was broadly similar in March 2020 as compared with March 2019. While such binary comparisons of one period to another are common, they can be seriously misleading. In this blog post, Dr Matt Ashby (Lecturer, University College London) outlines five reasons why you should avoid binary comparisons, before suggesting some preferable methods you can adopt that can produce more reliable results.
