Topic
Police violence in America is a hot topic in the news. There has been multiple occurrences involving some very serious incidents which garnered the nation’s attention. Unjustified shootings, severe beatings, fatal chokings, and rough treatment of offenders have caused the public-at-large to scrutinize the activities of police officers – and question their authority – like never before. The ability of the public to digitally record these incidents in real time has exasperated the problem. This enhanced scrutiny has caused officers to hesitate to utilize an appropriate level of force when confronting potentially dangerous situations. There is some concern that the anxiety officers currently face could potentially compromise their safety.
Choose a recent high profile police violence incident that received extensive media coverage within the past 12 months. The incident should have occurred in 2019 or 2020. Discuss some unique ethical dilemmas related to the case – and the potential ethical issues relating to the aftermath of the incident – i.e., overarching implications upon the field of criminal justice, implications related to the public’s perception of criminal justice professionals, etc. NOTE: The case you select should be no more than one year old
