The policing systems of the United States

In a five-page APA formatted paper (with references), compare and contrast the policing systems of the

write about the country from which you or your family emigrated. Areas for comparison might include: the

number of police officers per capita (100,000 citizens), number of arrests and convictions per capita,

guidelines pertaining to use of force, police shootings, search and seizures.
