Sir Robert Peel created the first organized police department in London, United Kingdom in 1829. His central idea for this creation was to provide "an incessant patrol through visible ” (Ratcliffe et al. 2011) . He believed that local citizens would be dissuaded by his aggressive police presence in the area and knowing that their chances of being arrested and punished would be high. The debate in these modern times seems to hinge on the idea of ​​whether police patrol deters crime in hot spots. This essay is significant because by using the foot patrol as the unit of analysis, it will be easier to control the perspective of the task at hand. keeping information processing at a simplified level. The hope of this essay is to achieve the main goal of demonstrating that police foot patrols of hot spots are an effective deterrent. The National Research Council summarized that police foot patrols were an untargeted community policing strategy that provided only weak-to-moderate evidence of reducing fear of crime (Ratcliffe et al. 2011). In a study conducted in 2005 (Braga 2005) it was concluded that there was a significant difference in the opinion on the residence of police patrols in the targeted area. He found that due to the concentrated and aggressive police presence, residents filed complaints about law enforcement strategies. Residents feared police misconduct and excessive force, In a minority-dominated area residents will feel like bored officers were racially targeting them. Ratcliffe et al (2011) suggest that previous research on foot patrols suffered from statistical and measurement issues that did not fully explore potential deterrence dynamics within microspatial contexts. The Operation Impact program in Newark, New Jersey was a foot patrol experience... center of paper... hot spot, will promote positive outcomes. Bibliography Braga, A.
