„ Help prevent crime
November 3 �,, 9 has been by
to been designated by
41) the Solicitor General of Canada as the third
annual National Crime Prevention Week.
This is not to suggest that crime prevention
is a concern only during this week, but it is
intended as a time for each citizen to ex-
amine his or her participation in preventing
crime in the community.
The Clinton Police Department takes, this
opportunity to encourage crime prevention
in this area.
Police officers have long been instructed
that "the police, are the community and the
community are the police"., This is
sometimes a difficult concept to understand
until one carefully examines the police role
in the community.
•Aside from a lengthy, list of rather un-
complimentary nicknames the police are
often .referred to as "the law". This
nickname in itself leads to a common
inisconception of the police as an all encom-
passing body of authority which enacts. the
law. and then enforces it upon the public.
The police, in fact, are only one part of our
judicial system, where as the community is
directly responsible for each step of the pro-
cess.
The .,community elect legislators who
create laws. Since these legislators are
elected representatives of th'e, people the
community is ultimately responsible fdr the
laws created.
The legislators then create authorities to
deal with those who offend the law. These
authorities allowthose who offend the law -to
be brought before the courts to be dealt with
according to the law. The' legislators must
then appoint judges to fulfill this function.
This system creates the obvious need for
the police role. The police are members of
the community empowered by the com-
munity. to identify .those wh m they believe
have offended the law and to bring those ac-
Bused persons before the courts.
The police role, possibly over simplified,
is to identify and compel offenders' to be
dealt with in our judicial system. This may
be the origin of the saying, "the long arm of
the law."
Police officers are generally a very small
portion of the community in a democratic
system of. government. On the average 'a
community will. employ one police officer
for every 600 to, 800 people living within the
community. This creates the„need for a con=
cerned community to assist the police. Con-
clusive evidence of effective policing within
a community is not a high arrest or convic-
tion rate but rather the lack of
tion rate but rather the lack of the cornmis-
sion of crime within that community. This
state of a lack of crime can not generally be
achieved entirely by the efforts of the police
officers who are such a minute minority. It
requires a community effort. Often it simp-
ly means being a good neighbour.
If you see an offence being committed, do
not ignore it, get involved. Tell the victim
what you have seen and also inform your
police department. This action plight very
well prevent you from being the next vic.-
tim.
No one needs to worry that the informa-
tion he or she has is not significant. A police
officer is never to busy to listen to your in-
formation even if you only suspect that a
crime may have been committed. Informa-
tion, which may seem insignificant to you, if
passed on to the police may save hours or
days of investigation. and, each officer
recognizes this fact.
Remember, crime prevention is
EVERYONE'S BUSINESS. Crime won't
have a chance in your community if you do
not give it one. You can contact your Clinton
Police Department 24 hours a clay by phon-
ing 482-3435.
