Abstract
An editorial emphasizes the need to make decisions about police equipment such as mobile data terminals on the basis of its effects on daily police work and its ability to make police more efficient and effective. Other articles describe a model stalking code, the role of police accreditation, anger management for police officers, and police officer safety. Additional articles focus on a murder case in which the source of the bite marks on the victim's body were a crucial factor, the benefits of an appropriate police uniform, the 9mm Taurus pistol, the separation of work and home in police work, the Miranda rule and other legal issues, the uses of computers in police work, and planning for an effective diving rescue team for work in water.
