Home Office 21/5/2025 News Reforming the management of serious misconduct: a temporal analysis of the NYPD Meaningful reform of police misconduct management practice requires a strong understanding of how complaints, and subsequent management and punitive actions influence the behavior of officers. Methods for the management of minor misconduct are important and relatively well understood, serving as opportunities to implement behavior change prior to a more serious instance of misconduct. However, when officers commit serious misconduct, not all are dismissed from an agency, with some retaining their positions as police. The present research focuses on this group of officers: Those who committed substantiated serious misconduct and were returned to duty. Using this data from the NYPD, we analyze whether there are identifiable behavioral characteristics that predict repeated misconduct among officers. Recommendations are provided for departments to address this group of officers early on, before repeated misconduct occurs.

The Times - Subscription at source 21/5/2025 News Innovative Community Policing Models in Response to Discrimination of Racialized Youth Who Use Drugs Tense relations between police and racialized youth, especially those who use drugs, are ongoing concerns in Canada and other countries, with greater incidents of racial profiling and discrimination resulting in reduced trust and police legitimacy. While there have been calls for various forms of defunding police, some youth who use drugs (YWUDs) have highlighted the need for police to have stronger connections with the community to create better relationships between YWUD and police. The concept of “community policing” may be a viable and promising approach to reimagining law enforcement. A rapid review of grey and peer-reviewed literature was used to highlight promising community policing models, and identify gaps, strengths, and approaches to promote positive relations between police and racialized YWUD. We found that very few programs offered comprehensive, culturally safe training curriculums or initiatives that involve consultation or co-development with community members themselves. Furthermore, few program models are empirically supported by evidence-based outcomes and were largely based on anecdotal evidence. These findings may inform future practice with recommendations for enhanced law enforcement training in trauma-informed harm reduction, youth psychosocial development, prosocial communication and crisis de-escalation techniques, reconciliation, and cultural safety.
