Interesting event. It is commendable that reform is prioritized alongside the restoration of public trust and the transformation of policing culture. Strong leadership integrity is crucial for improving the relationship between law enforcement and the communities they serve. Addressing current challenges requires innovative approaches to crime prevention, particularly through community engagement and technology. These efforts should consistently focus on community participation, accountability, and transparency. By fostering collaboration and adapting to the evolving needs of society, the police can position themselves as trustworthy partners in maintaining public safety. The future of policing will hinge on these three foundational pillars: integrity, innovation, and collective responsibility. Boosting the number of police officers in line with the police-to-public ratio is essential to alleviate fatigue and reduce the pressure on current officers. Other pressing concerns include addressing knife and hate crimes, as well as fostering healthy relationships among individuals from various communities and ethnicities.
At the John Harris Memorial Lecture, I reflected on our ongoing mission to rebuild public trust, transform policing culture, and drive forward reform. We must lead with integrity, innovate in tackling crime, and be accountable to the communities we serve. Together, we can reshape the future of policing. https://lnkd.in/eAPZkehb

Obviously as is absolutely the case with regards to every discipline and profession, there are, of course "bad/ corrupted criminals-in-disguise", effectively. That must be rooted out. However, if you are going to let an exceptionally tiny minority of such sorry excuses-for people justify your not actively supporting the #thinblueline, then you are absolutely one of the also exceptionally tiny but - generally - obnoxiously-loud minority, who are a giant part of the problem. That is, the problem of the very deliberate dividing of this nation, the epidemic of crime in far too many formerly safe cities and towns and generally, the continuing breakdown of law and order, the Rule of Law and the emerging reign of an increasingly-obvious also very deliberate, Two-Tiered so-called "Justice" system. +++ But that's just what I think might be happening and might be some of the causes. What do you all think? #surveysays
A sea of blue enveloped Merrick Road outside of St. Rose of Lima Catholic Church this morning. Police Officers joined us from across the globe to honor our hero, Detective First Grade Jonathan Diller- standing shoulder to shoulder with us, and comforting his extraordinary family. The patches on the officers’ shoulders may be different, but we are forever bound by our solemn oaths to serve and protect our communities. The same principles Jonathan Diller lived by: To make our world a better, safer place for all. #FidelisAdMortem

Another great article posted by the Director of Second Look Network at The Sentencing Project regarding use of clemency powers to address excessive sentences. The number of older people in State & Federal prisons is increasing faster than any other age group. How could anyone claim that the point of incarceration was to incapacitate the truly dangerous when there are more people older than 55 in US prisons (165,000) than there are people in the high-crime range of 18-24? Geriatric healthcare in prison is both disgraceful and expensive. It costs on average, 3x more to incarcerate an older person than a younger one. Governor Andy Beshear could help alleviate the excessive costs mass incarceration has incurred on Kentucky as a proponent for second chances, and providing additional resources to protect public education and access to affordable healthcare-basic rights to the citizens of the Commonwealth. #SecondLookLaws #FreeKarenBrown
What an incredibly bold and inclusive way for a Governor to use clemency powers to address excessive sentences. Read New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy's clemency initiative at: https://lnkd.in/eXHPEwdj Governor Murphy's statement: “Today on Juneteenth, a day that celebrates freedom, I am incredibly proud to launch a historic clemency initiative. I’m committed to using my powers as Governor to pardon and commute sentences to address injustices and overly harsh sentences in our criminal justice system. Thank you @ltgovway, @pastor_rls, @meekmill, and @wallo267 of @reform, Amol Sinha of the @aclunj, Justin Dews, and everyone who joined us in Newark today in support of second chances and the values of justice, compassion, and rehabilitation."

Geriatric healthcare in prison is both disgraceful and expensive. It costs on average, 3x more to incarcerate an older person than a younger one. National survey data according to the Prison Policy Initiative show that most victims support violence prevention, social investment, and alternatives to incarceration that address the root causes of crime, not more investment in carceral systems that cause more harm. Governor Andy Beshear could help alleviate the excessive costs mass incarceration has incurred on Kentucky as a proponent for second chances, and providing additional resources to protect public education and access to affordable healthcare-basic rights to the citizens of the Commonwealth. #SecondLookLaws #KyFreeKarenBrown
