Cutback Management or
Re-engineering Police Service?
Plans that account for the long term impact of the
recession.
Accurate measurement of workload requires high
quality information and adequate operations analysis
support.
Fundamental changes in staffing practices.
Reduced reliance on arrest and prosecution as
enforcement strategies.
Expand interagency partnerships to leverage resources.
Impact of the Recession
Not a burst bubble but a correction in the
economy
State and local funding has been significantly
cut
Economic growth and will remain flat
Quality of Workload Data
911 and Non-emergency calls
Dispatched calls for service
Cases assigned for investigation
Impact rise in Part II crimes
IT role in supporting managers
Changes in Staffing Practices
Expand role of call takers and dispatchers/NG911
Strengthen ownership of territory
Effective scheduling of patrol personnel
Expand the role of patrol officers
Measure detective performance
Reduce detective workload
Reliance on Arrest and Prosecution
Long term limits in criminal justice system capacity
Implement comprehensive career criminal/serious
habitual offender processes
More work on offender supervision by beat officers to
control offender behavior
Closer working relationships with corrections and
parole to revoke offenders rather than retry them
Interdisciplinary Collaboration
Deal with information sharing issues
Deal with key issues like chronic runaways
that lead to human trafficking, gangs, drugs
and low educational achievement
Drug strategies that promote treatment,
prevention, and support productive
enforcement

The Data Challenge
• Previous studies have shown that 50% of executives believe they have made poor decisions based on inaccurate or out-dated data.
• The goal of our DashPRO system is to provide our commanders and
executives with:
– Real time data – User friendly web application – One access point
3
From Concept to Design
• 2008 Began discussion of consolidating all of our reporting databases into one central access point.
• 2009 Continued discussion and started researching potential solutions and determined a web application as the preferred method of delivery.
• 2010 Developed system requirements and published a Request for Proposals.
– Three vendors responded, cost prohibitive $500k plus (budget of $300k) – Identified DOMO through a GSA contract – Submitted proposal at $127,000.00 – Began development in August
• 2011 Phase 1 design completed (400 hours).
• 2012 Phase 2 design anticipated with additional features.

Database Consolidation
• Currently connected to six databases – Tiburon RMS – TriTech CAD – Racial Profiling Database – Visual Statement Electronic Accident Reporting System – Significant Incident Database – Texas State Parolee Database

Key Considerations
• Develop core mission and focus • Establish KPIs (Key Performance Indicators) • Gain commitment from all stakeholders • Hold regular communication regarding status and progress • Set realistic goals and objectives • Seek stakeholder input and feedback • Executive sponsorship critical

ICE ICE Commitment to Community Engagement
Mission
• The ICE Office of State, Local and Tribal Coordination (OSLTC) is responsible for building and improving relationships and coordinating partnership activities for multiple stakeholders – including law enforcement associations (LEAs)
and agencies, state, local and tribal
governments, and non-governmental
organizations (NGOs).

Build awareness and understanding of partnerships through ICE Agreements of Cooperation in Communities to Enhance
Safety and Security (ACCESS)
Operation Community Shield Asset Forfeiture
Operation Predator Intellectual Property Rights (IPR) Center
• On August 18, 2011, The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) announced an effort to better focus immigration enforcement on the removal of criminal aliens, the promotion of public safety and border security, and the integrity of the immigration system.
• In order to accomplish this, a working group (DHS, ICE, CIS, CBP, and DOJ) was established. The working group was tasked with identifying the best practices to accelerate the apprehension and removal of high priority criminal aliens by, in part, limiting the initiation or pursuit of low priority cases.
• An immigration detainer (Form I-247) is a notice that DHS issues to federal, state and LEA to inform the LEA that ICE intends to assume custody of an individual in the LEA's custody.
• An immigration detainer serves three key functions:
o To notify an LEA that ICE intends to assume custody of an alien in the LEA's custody once the alien is no longer subject to the LEA's detention;
o To request information from an LEA about an alien's impending release so ICE may assume custody before the alien is released from the LEA's custody; and
o To request that the LEA maintain custody of an alien who would otherwise be released for a period not to exceed 48 hours (excluding Saturdays, Sundays, and holidays) to provide ICE time to assume custody.
• By issuing a detainer, ICE also requests that a LEA notify ICE before releasing an alien and maintain custody of the subject for a period not to exceed 48 hours. This request flows from federal regulations at 8 C.F.R. § 287.7, providing that, “[u]pon a determination by the Department to issue a detainer for an alien not otherwise detained by a criminal justice agency, such agency shall maintain custody of the alien.”
• In the event that an alien is released from an LEA on bond, an immigration detainer remains in effect and the 48 hour period applies.
• ICE has established a toll-free hotline – (855) 448-6903 that detained individuals can call if they believe they may be U.S. citizens or victim of a crime.
OSLTC
ICE ICE First Time Accomplishments

OSLTC
ICE ICE First Time Accomplishments
• OSLTC is coordinating the development of an ICE
101 DVD for state and local law enforcement • OSLTC hosted two national roundtable events in
Washington D.C., with LEA leaders from a cross the country to solicit their expertise on how best to grow relationships in the field
• OSLTC also notifies national organizations of any changes in ICE’s prospective programs
OSLTC
ICE OSLTC Goals Moving Forward
• Software Application for state and local law enforcement officers
• Increased coordination with our DHS Component (Office of State and Local Law Enforcement)
OSLTC
ICE FYI
• ICE issued 316,170 detainers in fiscal year 2011
(9/31/2010 – 10/1/2011). That equates to about 866 detainers lodged each day.
• In fiscal year 2011, ICE removed 396,906 aliens of which 216,698 were criminal aliens
• Of those 216,698 criminal aliens removed, 75,086 were Level 1 offenders.
• The Detroit Free Press (1/22, Baldas, 220K) reports, "Authorities say human trafficking has become the second-biggest and second-fastest-growing criminal industry in the world, behind drug trafficking. In recent years, the number of cases has skyrocketed --
Obama "declared January National Slavery and Human Trafficking Prevention Month." According to the Department of Justice, "of the 2,515 cases under investigation in the US in 2010, more than 1,000 involved children. The United Nations estimates it's a $32-billion industry, with half of the money coming from industrialized countries.“

Communities Identifying and Removing Criminal Aliens
to Keep Our Communities Safe
www.ice.gov/secure_communities
| 1
Responding to a Need
The need to improve public safety by increasing information sharing and removing criminal aliens has been mandated by federal government.
• Federal agencies recognize the need to share information in a timely manner to ensure informed
decisions. • The 9/11 Commission Report recommends
increased information sharing.
• The FY 2008 DHS Appropriations Act outlines a congressional mandate to improve and modernize the identification and removal of convicted criminal aliens.
• Criminal alien enforcement is a priority for DHS.

Identifying Criminal Aliens through
Federal Biometric Information Sharing
| 3
Focusing on Criminal Aliens
ICE’s focus on criminal aliens is changing the makeup of the alien population in ICE detention and being removed.
• The criminal alien population being removed has increased from 35% to 54% of the total alien population being removed.
• The criminal alien population in ICE detention has increased from 27% to 43% of the total alien population in ICE detention.
Statistics as of October 2011
| 4
Benefiting State and Local Law Enforcement
Using federal biometric information sharing to identify criminal aliens provides various benefits to law enforcement partners.
Reduces opportunities
for allegations of racial
profiling
Prioritizes enforcement action toward the most serious offenders
Provides improved information to increase officer safety
Requires little or no change to
current procedures
Does not ask or authorize
officers to enforce
immigration law
Provides a 24/7 commitment from ICE for detainers
Implemented at little to
no cost to jurisdictions
Provides a more accurate identification based on
biometrics
| 5
New Improvements/Safeguards
• Secure Communities Advisory Committee o Designed to make recommendations on focusing on individuals posing serious
threats.
• Prosecutorial Discretion
o Provided new guidance to ICE law enforcement personnel and attorneys to exercise discretion when appropriate.
• Training for State and Local LEAs
o Developed a new training program providing how Secure Communities works and relates to laws governing civil rights.
On July 17, 2011: ICE and DHS CRCL launched several new initiatives to address public concerns regarding potential misuse of (IDENT/IAFIS Interoperability) Secure Communities:
| 6
New Improvements/Safeguards (Continued)
• Protecting Victims and Witnesses of Crimes
o Developed a policy directing ICE officers to exercise discretion to ensure victims and witnesses are not penalized by removal.
• Detainer Policy
o Revised the detainer form to emphasize that state and local authorities are not to detain individuals for more than 48 hours.
• Data Collection and Statistical Review o Created a new complaint system for potential civil rights violations. o Developed an ongoing quarterly statistical review to identify improper use of
Secure Communities.

Compressed Work Weeks (CWWs)
Common alternatives:
Four, 10-hour shifts Three, 12-hour shifts
For many decades, numerous industries (including policing) have adopted them:
Medicine Transportation (aviation, trucking, etc.) Mining and Manufacturing Power and Utility Companies
Past Research on CWWs Across Industries
Lacked scientific rigor and/or had methodological limitations including measurement problems
Nevertheless, findings have typically shown that: Employees like CWWs more When there have been negative performance findings,
they are typically more common for 12-hr shifts (e.g., communication, work effort, reduced work quality, or cognitive performance)
Accident risks are higher for 12-hr shifts than for 8- or 10-hr shifts
Findings related to health are mixed, but generally health problems are greatest when individuals work more than 48 hrs per week or work very long shifts
Fatigue has been linked to longer shifts as has decreased alertness particularly for 12-hr shifts
Survey and Experiment
Random Survey of U.S. Police Agencies’ Current Shift Practices at the end of 2005 and 2009
300 randomly selected agencies (50 or more sworn) Standard shift length and rotation 96% response rate in 2005, 100% in 2009
Randomized Field Experiment in Two Cities
Detroit, Michigan Arlington, Texas
Survey Results (2005 – 2009)
SHIFT LENGTH
Agencies are moving away from 8 hour shifts (over a 10% drop in 8-hour shifts over 4 years)
More agencies are trying alternatives to 8-, 10-, and 12-hour shifts (9-hr, 11-hr, 13-hr) In 2005, 91% had either 8-, 10-, or 12-hr shifts By 2010, just 77% had one of these shifts
SHIFT ROTATION:
There has been a significant reduction in routinely rotating shifts; 72% now operate on fixed shifts (up from 54% in 2005)
Survey Results (2005 – 2009)
