Book Synopsis Houston Police Department by : Tom Kennedy
Download or read book Houston Police Department written by Tom Kennedy and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2012 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Houston Police Force was established by the naming of a city marshal in January 1841. Houston Police Department historian Denny Hair wrote, "As befitted a frontier community, the meeting of justice in Houston was swift and uncompromising. Trials were conducted in an informal manner with little attention paid to formal rules of evidence and legal procedure." Eventually, conditions changed and law enforcement became more sophisticated. The "Bayou City" population went from 44,633 in 1900 to almost 1 million by 1960. "Houston" was the first word spoken from the moon, thus it became "Space City" and, ultimately, the nation's fourth-largest city. Its police department weathered decades of mayoral appointment for every officer before state civil service reform in the 1940s. It also met the civil rights years better than most cities and saw dramatic change with the 1982 appointment of Lee Brown as the first African American police chief of a large American city.

Book Synopsis Race and the Houston Police Department, 1930–1990 by : Dwight D. Watson
Download or read book Race and the Houston Police Department, 1930–1990 written by Dwight D. Watson and published by Texas A&M University Press. This book was released on 2005-11-10 with total page 227 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Houston, as in the rest of the American South up until the 1950s, the police force reflected and enforced the segregation of the larger society. When the nation began to change in the 1950s and 1960s, this guardian of the status quo had to change, too. It was not designed to do so easily. Dwight Watson traces how the Houston Police Department reacted to social, political, and institutional change over a fifty-year period—and specifically, how it responded to and in turn influenced racial change. Using police records as well as contemporary accounts, Watson astutely analyzes the escalating strains between the police and segments of the city’s black population in the 1967 police riot at Texas Southern University and the 1971 violence that became known as the Dowling Street Shoot-Out. The police reacted to these events and to daily challenges by hardening its resolve to impose its will on the minority community. By 1977, the events surrounding the beating and drowning of Jose Campos Torres while in police custody prompted one writer to label the HPD the “meanest police in America.” This event encouraged Houston’s growing Mexican American community to unite with blacks in seeking to curb police autonomy and brutality. Watson’s study demonstrates vividly how race complicated the internal impulses for change and gave way through time to external pressures—including the Civil Rights Movement, modernization, annexations, and court-ordered redistricting—for institutional changes within the department. His work illuminates not only the role of a southern police department in racial change but also the internal dynamics of change in an organization designed to protect the status quo.

Book Synopsis Balancing the Badge to Make a Difference: What Every Law Enforcement Professional Should Know about Managing Money and Life. by : Jim Kalinowski
Download or read book Balancing the Badge to Make a Difference: What Every Law Enforcement Professional Should Know about Managing Money and Life. written by Jim Kalinowski and published by . This book was released on 2018-10-23 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Balancing the Badge to Make a Difference is a holistic approach toward balancing a law enforcement career with a purpose-driven retirement. Balancing the Badge to Make a Difference is based on a relationship with God and family, and a solid financial plan. Jim's passion for creating the Balancing the Badge concept and writing this book began while working alongside peace officers and providing financial services to them. He quickly recognized the importance of Balancing the Badge to provide financial information for officers to plan for retirement and also for developing a purpose-driven retirement to keep retirees motivated, healthy, productive, and most importantly, happy in retirement. Research for this book includes more than 36 years of police experience as an officer and a manager, providing financial services to officers and the public for over 20 years, raising a family, his relationship to God, teaching financial planning and life planning for over seven years to officers and cadets, and conducting extensive interviews with law enforcement professionals regarding their life goals during their career and into retirement. The goal for this book is about transforming law enforcement personnel to embrace the concept of Balancing the Badge because a purpose-driven retirement is critical for law enforcement survival. The objective of this book is to provide the tools to cross the bridge from achieving financial wealth, to also achieving life wealth. Building a life portfolio is as important as building a financial portfolio. This is a must-read book for all officers at any stage of their career including retirees that wish to live a life worth living. This book can easily by applied to all other careers as well. Reviews include: "Jim's classes were valuable to both me and my wife as we planned for our retirement. It caused us to have realistic goals and expectations and to formulate a plan to keep everything in line with God's plan for our lives, as well as meeting our financial goals." - Eric Fagan, Houston Police Officer (retired). "Jim has an enormous heart and unyielding energy to help officers and anyone in need to live a life worth living. Jim's vast police experience and extensive financial experience coupled with his faith and charity work guide him to help others live a balanced life. This book is a must read for all law enforcement personnel at any stage of their career, including retirees. I also recommend this book to anyone searching for their purpose." - James Bollig, Houston Police Sergeant (retired) & Army Veteran. "Balancing the Badge is a great 'How To' book on achieving Financial Freedom as well as genuine freedom. Everyone wants to be successful financially, but most of us never attain it. The reason is because we either don't know how or are not willing to do what it takes. This book gives you the knowledge and the motivation. Remove the handcuffs and start living a life free from bondage. Thank you, Lt Jim, for writing this book!" - Terry Farrar, CFP. "The value of a plan integrating the priorities of career, finances, family, and spiritual well-being cannot be understated. This book provides a road map in establishing your long-term plan to achieve personal success, happiness and financial security, geared specifically to law enforcement." - Dan Murphy, Inspector, NYPD (retired).

Book excerpt: The State Law That Prevented Chiefs from Controlling Officers In the 1940s, mayors and police chiefs ruled with iron fists. Mayors returned political favors with special treatment, and police chiefs, if they wanted to keep their job, went along. The Texas Legislature created a law in 1947 which offered cities a chance to change that situation greatly. Civil Service offered freedom from political influence - but planted a seed that grew rapidly and became a contagious behavior. Read how this benevolent law cast the Houston Police Department officers into workers and drones - and how the chiefs had little power to change them.
