How to have better local police around Memphis

Why did the Memphians end up having low quality of local police? How can we have better local police?

Theoretically, the police are the official organization that is responsible for making sure that people obey the law. It is said that police typically are responsible for maintaining public order and safety, enforcing the law, and preventing, detecting, and investigating criminal activities. These functions are known as policing.

The Memphians don’t deserve low quality of local police. They deserve having better service of local law enforcement. At the same time, Memphians deserve low quality of local police because they allowed it to exist for a long time.

There was not enough level of checks and balances in terms of local government agencies. The first and direct blame belongs to local police and government, but the final and ultimate responsibility belong to Memphians.

The role of local police around Memphis can be controversial, as some of them may be involved to varying degrees in corruption. We don’t know or at least can’t prove YET what kind of corruption can or may exist within local police departments including, but not limited to Memphis Police Department, West Memphis Police Department, and Germantown Police Department.

A lot of police officers whom we can see on the street every day seem to work hard in order to discharge their duties or responsibilities. However, superior office or authority within the local police departments falls under suspicion of corruption. Such signs of ORGANIZED CORRUPTION are being caught especially regarding cunning and cruel white-collar crimes.

The Memphians should try to send those “Rotten Apples” into prison. That’s the way the Memphians can have better local police. Rotten apples should be put in prision.
