Those partnerships include fellow law enforcement agencies as well as developing relationships with the community you serve. Attempting to build these critical relationships during or after an incident is too late. ASAC Kowenhover described the chaos after the bombing at the Boston Marathon in 2013. The crime scene covered a 15-block area and casualties included three people killed and over 260 injured. The amount of evidence at the scene was overwhelming. A physical evidence collection team, a digital evidence collection team and cellular telephone analysis team were established. Relationships between the FBI, Boston PD, and other federal and state agencies, established long before the incident, were critical to information sharing and coordination. ASAC Kowenhover mentioned that because of the previously established relationships everyone worked well together from the start, which is critical in the early stages of such a complex investigation.

While not on a scale anywhere near the events ASAC Kowenhover and Chief Belmar were in charge of, the community I police has been in a crisis of its own.

    Introduction The New Orleans Police Department is an organization that struggled long before Hurricane Katrina made landfall in August of 2005.

Beginning in the 1980’s, police brutality became a major issue in the city, which still continues now, almost 12 years later. During the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, it seemed that the situation was only worse.

Mangan deliberated his concerns with the citizens that they needed to build the police headquarters up and he needs the citizens to become volunteers. The turnaround year for the police division was within Mangan’s second year when he turned his attention to making changes about the sector itself. While, Mangan was still open about his goals for the Spokane Community and willing to adopt a more community-based, proactive approach to policing, he needed to transmit his mission to all the levels of the organization.

Captain Preston, who ordered all to fire, was found innocent and two soldiers were convicted of manslaughter. This was named as the Boston Massacre, which had a lot to do with how America is today.

I learned about the past in Detroit, which is plagued by racism and police brutality, most notably in the riots of 1967.

    I think that the British soldiers acted in self defense during the Boston Massacre. The colonists were threatening and provoking the soldiers by shouting vulgarly, beating people with clubs, and throwing rocks covered in snow, so I believe that the soldiers had a right to fight for their lives. Just take a moment to imagine the Boston massacre, it’s late at night and people are tired and confused. The colonists are shouting “Fire and be damned, who cares! Damn you, you dare not fire,” (Exhibit B) and the British soldiers are ready to defend but don’t know what’s going on.

    The Boston Massacre is an event most Americans and British students learn about over the course of their education. In America, we learn that British soldiers fired upon innocent civilians, although this may not have been the case. British historians have referred to the Boston Massacre as the "Incident on King Street". After looking over the "Captain Thomas Preston 's Account of the Boston Massacre", as well as "Boston Massacre Trial Depositions" I believe that American historians should refer to the "Boston Massacre" as the "Incident on King Street". The definition of a massacre refers to an unnecessary and random killing of a large number of individuals.
