The Times - Subscription at source 7/9/2019 News Policing People With Mental Illness: Experimental Evaluation of Online Training to De-Escalate Mental Health Crises This study was conducted to complete a proof of concept for a brief online training designed to improve the policing of people with mental illness. The training, positioned within a stress inoculation framework, is scalable worldwide at minimal cost. Our primary intent was to effect improvements in law enforcement officers’ ability to effectively respond to and de-escalate mental health crises. Participants were randomly assigned to either DEFUSE, the online de-escalation training, or a delayed treatment control condition. DEFUSE was evaluated with the full array of measures also used to assess CIT, the most comprehensive mental health training available to law enforcement in the USA. Additionally, DEFUSE was evaluated using a randomized controlled trial design, including additional measures assessing performance competence, knowledge, and satisfaction with the training. Participants initially receiving DEFUSE showed significant improvement in performance competence, assessed from their responses to simulated mental health crises.

Express 6/9/2019 News “They Just Don’t Care About Us!”: Police Custody Experiences For Young Men With Histories of Injecting Drug Use Young men (aged 18–24) represent a quarter of all episodes of police custody detention for adult males in Victoria, Australia. Despite this, little is known about their experience. Using Bacchi’s Foucauldian-influenced “What’s the problem represented to be?” approach and data from interviews with 28 young men with histories of injecting drug use who were detained in police custody prior to adult prison, we aim to address this gap in the literature. We highlight how dividing practices of discrimination made possible their subjectification as “dangerous violent Others” and how unruly behaviour and self-harm were simultaneous mechanisms for voicing their despair and frustration, for gaining power in a place in which they had very little control and for resisting dominant truths imposed upon them as worthless subjects. It is such positioning we argue, that allowed the forfeiting of their rights to basic health care, fair treatment and respect, and at the same time produced and exacerbated a range of psychological, physical and social harms. Our analysis raises important questions about police custody, notably its role in the production of inequality and further marginalisation of vulnerable groups.
