the position of Chief of the Virtual Police Department
Research Paper
You are a candidate for the position of Chief of the Virtual Police Department. You have researched the department and
you have learned about the organization of the department.
The Virtual City Police Department was created 63 years ago. The department has emerged as one of the primary
policing agency in the state. It has become a modern police department with 155 sworn officers. There are 70 civilian
employees appointed to positions ranging from clerical support to correctional officers to crime scene investigators. The
department is considered “medium” size in the spectrum of police departments across the country. (The organizational
chart is the same as the chart for Project 1.)
You are informed that the Mayor is keenly interested in Community Policing; an operational approach to law
enforcement she feels will make a difference in the public safety in Virtual. The mayor has asked you to prepare a
position paper for her that will either affirm her intention to adopt Community Policing or dissuade her from this
initiative. She has asked that you present both the pros and cons of Community and conclude with your judgment about
which course to take.
