Book Description
From the award-winning author of The Feral Detective and Motherless Brooklyn comes an utterly original post-collapse yarn about two siblings, the man that came between them, and a nuclear-powered super car. The Arrest isn’t post-apocalypse. It isn’t a dystopia. It isn’t a utopia. It’s just what happens when much of what we take for granted—cars, guns, computers, and airplanes, for starters—quits working. . . . Before the Arrest, Sandy Duplessis had a reasonably good life as a screenwriter in L.A. An old college friend and writing partner, the charismatic and malicious Peter Todbaum, had become one of the most powerful men in Hollywood. That didn’t hurt. Now, post-Arrest, nothing is what it was. Sandy, who calls himself Journeyman, has landed in rural Maine. There he assists the butcher and delivers the food grown by his sister, Maddy, at her organic farm. But then Todbaum shows up in an extraordinary vehicle: a retrofitted tunnel-digger powered by a nuclear reactor. Todbaum has spent the Arrest smashing his way across a fragmented and phantasmagorical United States, trailing enmities all the way. Plopping back into the siblings’ life with his usual odious panache, his motives are entirely unclear. Can it be that Todbaum wants to produce one more extravaganza? Whatever he’s up to, it may fall to Journeyman to stop him. Written with unrepentant joy and shot through with just the right amount of contemporary dread, The Arrest is speculative fiction at its absolute finest.

In a career spanning thirty-seven years both as a beach lifeguard and police officer, Mark Cleavenger gives us a look at true accounts of dealing with the public, many times on the worst day of their lives. Majoring in Western philosophy, he kept a personal journal since 1980. He chose to impart his extraordinary career through selected verses that provide the lessons and raw emotions of police work. Mark was an accomplished swimmer and flat water kayak athlete, making it as far as the 1992 Olympic trials. He has two adult children and currently lives in Camarillo, California, where he continues to supervise beaches in Malibu, California. “There is no genius without a mixture of madness” (Aristotle).

The story is touching, warm, and impressive.” —Kid Lit Reviews

Book Description
This report serves to assess the Nation¿s progress in addressing juvenile crime. The 2007 data bring some welcome news, as the recent trend of modest increases in juvenile arrests in 2005 and 2006 has been broken. The good news is reflected not only in the 2% decline in overall juvenile arrests and the 3% decline in juvenile arrests for violent crimes from 2006 to 2007 but also in the data for most offense categories, for males and females, and for white and minority youth. However, one area that merits continued attention is disproportionate minority contact with the juvenile justice system. For example, the arrest rate for robbery among black juveniles was more than 10 times that for white youth in 2007. Charts and tables.

Book Description
This report explores arrest quality as a measure of police performance. A small number of officers are responsible for the majority of arrests that end in conviction; however, there is no substantial evidence for attributing variation in officer performance to personal or demographic characteristics. Data were gathered along two different but related lines: first, PROMIS data were examined from seven diverse jurisdictions; secondly, a sample of High Conviction Rate (HCR) and Low Conviction Rate (LCR) officers was surveyed in Manhattan and Washington, D.C. The study found that officers responding to crime calls should be fully aware of the importance of recovering tangible evidence and enlisting the cooperation of persons who have witnessed or know about the crime. HCR officers indicated that they tended to focus greater attention on locating and dealing with witnesses than LCR officers. HCR officers were more willing to use both a direct, factual line of questioning and a psychological, indirect approach; LCR officers preferred the indirect approach. Furthermore, HCR officers reported success in improving witness cooperation by locating additional witnesses in order to create mutual support. The lack of difference in the demographic and attitudinal portions of the interviews rules out policy recommendations in areas such as recruitment, selection, and screening. However, the study recommends that officers receive feedback from the courts in order to improve the quality of their arrests. Study data and 7 notes are provided.
