Title: Workplace Violence in Law Enforcement

Author: Steven G Carley

Narrator: Tonya J Williams

Format: Unabridged

Length: 24 mins

Language: English

Release date: 11-01-16

Publisher: SGC Production

Genres: Nonfiction, Social Sciences

Publisher's Summary:

Workplace Violence in Law Enforcement discusses the profession of law enforcement from a statistical viewpoint in terms of violent occurrences. These violent occurrences are not always fatal, yet law enforcement more than any other profession has the highest risk of a demonstration of fatal or non-fatal violence. In depicting this violence, the case of Carl Burtion and James Irby is a center of focus. A look at 50 other cases is part of a major three-year study of the FBI in determining the motives and likelihoods of these attacks. It seems these individuals have an inclination of concealing weapons. Much of the time, these individuals are trained in the use of firearms even more so than the officers who legally yield the weapons. Officers who fail to comply by regulations find out their inclinations are eventually going to be wrong when the suspect-offender makes the decision to avoid capture at all costs. Whether these thoughts and attacks are premature or premeditated, the violence associating with the workplace in law enforcement is of really no comparison.

Title: Creating Guardians, Calming Warriors

Author: Kimberly Kindy

Narrator: Fleet Cooper

Format: Unabridged

Length: 15 mins

Language: English

Release date: 10-31-16

Publisher: Diversion Books

Genres: Nonfiction, Social Sciences

Publisher's Summary:

In 2015, The Washington Post launched an unprecedented effort to account for every fatal shooting by an officer of the law. Their study has motivated the FBI to action, and changed the way we think of those who serve and protect. After a police officer shot and killed a black teenager in Ferguson, Missouri, the media began to pay greater attention to deadly interactions between black men and the law. But when reporters tried to get to the bottom of some basic questionshow often do police shoot people? Who are the victims? Are officers ever charged with crimes?they came up blank. Police departments were not required to report these statistics to the FBI. The Washington Post set out to track every fatal shooting by an on-duty officer in 2015. Its database chronicled the shootings in real time, using news reports and other public sources. It compiled a trove of data, from the race of the person killed, whether the person was armed when killed, to whether the person was purported to have threatened the officer prior to being killed. The results found by the Post are shocking and haunting, from the sheer breadth of shootings by police in the U.S. to the stories of those killed. And its call to reform is being heeded. This groundbreaking book will radically alter how you view confrontation and accountability within the ranks, and offer a new perspective going forward.
