Write an 875- to 1,050-word paper in which you do the following:
Summarize Tennessee v. Garner (1985) and Graham v. Connor (1989). How do these cases regulate the use of force by police? What is the three-prong test?
How did the two cases above influence policy agencies?
Now, choose a police agency in the United States to research for the following questions:
Describe the selection process for police officers at your chosen agency. This includes the minimum age and education requirements, as well as the types of selection tests (written, physical, oral boards, etc.).
Briefly discuss issues that are affecting the police–community partnership at your chosen agency.
Explain how the agency partners with the community to address issues. Consider any public programs the agency offers and whether citizens have roles on advisory boards.
Identify if your selected agency shares their use of force policies on their website. How do they investigate use of force incidents? Can a citizen review the use of force reports through the agency website? Discuss the level of transparency the agency provides.
