New article, free download, slightly controversial?

Police stops nearly always exhibit racial disparity, compared to citywide population. But what if you use a denominator that better reflects actual police work?

Then it get's interesting...

Ron Clarke was one of the most influential criminologists of our time. He was also a valuable mentor to all of the students fortunate to cross paths with him at Rutgers. I will always remember how kind and supportive he was to me. He will be missed.

Analysts are often exposed to details of traumatic events, e.g., child abuse, domestic abuse. There aren’t many parts of policing that are free from emotionally charged situations. There’s now more focus on wellbeing of police staff & ACIA is bringing you the latest research.
