Inhaltsangabe

Within the pages of Targeting Discretion: A Guide for Command Staff, Front Line Officers, and Students, Dr. Casey LaFrance introduces his Target Model of Discretion, intended for utilization when addressing the multifaceted nature of discretion within the police force. The Target Model of Discretion is designed for use in practical, real-life situations that occur in law enforcement as well as by scholars who wish to analyze the factors which influence staff and officers when implementing discretion. Based on extensive consultations with individuals within various police agencies, LaFrance developed the Target Model of Discretion to help identify and improve communication issues between agency rank levels. Targeting Discretion goes beyond scholarly research and theory to offer step-by-step instructions and hypothetical scenarios for critical thinking exercises, opening a dialogue that can continue to develop beyond the text.
