The Legal Aspects of Policing is organized to fully explicate the material in an understandable and comprehensive fashion. The tone is conversational, much like a series of lectures on the various topics covered. There is no other text that presents this information in the manner adopted by the author. Moreover, much of material, although critical, is unique to this text. The book would be a helpful resource for upper level undergraduate students, graduate students, and police academy students. The topics covered include:
- Rare historical presentations of critical events in the adoption of the Bill of Rights; the original context of the Fourteenth Amendment; the evolution of the Incorporation of the Bill of Rights; and the development of the Exclusionary Rule.
- Unique organization and explanation of the limits and exceptions to the exclusionary rule.
- Detailed coverage and explanation of the dimensions of the Fourth Amendment and its relationship to an Expectation of Privacy.
- In-depth explanation of stop and frisk; critical extensions of Terry v. Ohio; searches that do not require a warrant; Miranda requirements; and limits and exceptions to Miranda.
