Prepare Three Short Scenarios Need For Training F
Here’s What Happened . . .
After your report was presented to the Centervale chief
of police, he realized there is a need for training for law enforcement
officials. Using the Simpson case as the basis, a proposal was presented
and approved by the mayor to fund a special project.
You have been asked to produce a written training
curriculum to educate the trainers of Centervale’s law enforcement
officials about dealing with crime victims. The chief has asked you to
cover both stranger violence and intimate violence. Your curriculum will
supply trainers with information that would assist them in training new
recruits, first responders, and detectives.
Here’s What You Need to Do . . .
- Prepare three short scenarios that
could be used as training material. In the training material, include
the three areas of stalking, intimate violence, and stranger violence. - Following each scenario, generate
questions that the trainers could present. Be sure to offer answers to
these questions, with support, as a handy guide for the trainers. - Finally, design a summary for the trainers that they can use to end their training. The summary should:
- Highlight the
differences between criminology and victimology and why it is important
for law enforcement officials to have a basic knowledge of both. Use
examples from your created scenarios as support. Identify the relevant
theories that pertain to violence against women. How can law enforcement
make use of these facts? - Explain the importance of law enforcement learning more about proper
treatment of victims in order to ensure the system does not revictimize
them. Consider how interviews, order of protection service, time until
arrest, safety planning, and lethality assessments play into this
treatment.
- Highlight the
- Create a curriculum:
- Develop three to five
questions for each scenario. Focus on relevant victimology or
criminology theories, victims’ rights, lethality assessments, and proper
treatment of victims. - Develop potential answers for those
questions, including the reasoning behind those answers. Hypothesize how
past inadequacies in victims’ rights, as they pertain to law
enforcement, might have led to different endings to the scenarios. - Predict the danger level for each
victim and connect to the necessary actions of the advocate or the
detective that will come from this alert. - Create a solution that would properly treat victims in order to
ensure the system does not revictimize them. In creating a solution,
consider these questions:- What can you recommend should be done for the victim?
- What can you recommend should be done to the suspect?
- What resources are available to assist law enforcement in working with victims?
- Develop three to five
