You are the swing shift (2:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m.) commander (Police Captain) for the patrol division in a large U.S. city (population 2,000,000) in 2021. You have been a police officer and leader for 28 years and have a B.S. degree in Management from a well-respected university (National University) that delivers its courses primarily online. The recent \u201cdefund the police movement,\u201d which has impacted your city with police budget cuts, has seriously and negatively affected morale, particularly in the patrol division. You suspect the majority of the officers in the patrol division have engaged in what is currently referred to as <\/span>de-policing<\/i>. A monthly report you receive shows self-initiated activity (vehicle stops, \u201cwalking stops\u201d, etc.) have dropped by more than 50% over the last 8 months. Sick days off have increased 20%. Retirements have gone from 2 per month to 10 per month and other-agency transfers have increased from 1 per month to 6 per month. Your patrol division is down from 1100 officers to 900, a 17 percent drop. Calls for service have increased by 15% and this increase is primarily emergency calls of felony crimes in progress. Emergency calls are taking an unprecedented 25 minutes on average to respond to. The chief is furious, and they have delegated to you the responsibility of preparing a plan of action to \u201cget things back to normal.\u201d <\/p>\n
