Many cities rely on police calls for service as their primary source for this information. Recent studies find, however, that citizens underreport gunshots. This has led some communities to invest in gunshot detection technology (GDT) as an alternative data source. GDT remains an expensive and often controversial solution with limited evidence for long-term benefits. This underscores the need for additional research on third-party reporting of gunshots. The current study, conducted in Portland Oregon, surveyed 1,240 residents in 23 neighborhoods with above-average firearm discharges. Analyses confirm that gunshots are vastly underreported. Multivariate logistic regressions found that respondents with higher trust in the police and those worried about gun violence were more likely to call 911 when they heard gunfire. Obstacles to reporting include ambiguity regarding the nature of the sound, diffusion of responsibility, and the perceived hassle of dealing with the local emergency dispatch system. Implications for surveilling gun violence are discussed.

At the time, little attention had been paid to this issue in the UK, although it had been the subject of significant research elsewhere, predominantly in the USA and Canada. Since then, and in the wake of several very high-profile cases, there has been increasing public concern about PPDA, violence against women and girls (‘VAWG’) and misogyny within the police more generally.

Systemic failures continue and victim/survivor confidence remains disturbingly low ‘Lorraine’s’ abuser was promoted to the rank of Chief Inspector, despite having two entirely separate rape allegations against him from two people who had no prior knowledge of one another. ‘Sally’, herself a police officer, who reported frequent abusive messages from her ex-partner – an officer with the same force - was incorrectly told “that’s not harassment, we don’t need to record this as a crime.” New research from Centre for Women’s Justice (CWJ) reveals shocking levels of domestic abuse by police officers continues and police forces are struggling to tackle the abuse of power or recognise that abuse off duty must be addressed.
