Continuum of Crime
Preventions program in a community targets to institute strategic changes in how prevention, intervention, and handling of crime are done in a community. The program also suggests diverse methods that can be used in curbing crime rates. The strategies may seek the cooperation of the community, local leaders, law enforcers and the local government for proper execution. However, crime must be clearly defined to find out what it implies in this context. Crime can best be defined as acting or behaving in a way that breaks the criminal laws of an area. Crime prevention aims at reducing victimization, avert crime and arrest perpetrators.
The government applies crime prevention so as to enforce the law and maintain criminal justice. Over the years there have been a lot of programs that have been rolled out to help curb crime in different states. This paper seeks to develop a program that will help Houston city improve its crime intervention and prevention and hence impact positively on the general security of the City which is among the City's strategic development goals.
Continuum of Crime
In the United States, there are several cities which have a history of high crime rates, I wish to take a close look at the crime statistics of three cities of San Diego, California; Houston, Texas, and Detroit, Michigan. Analyzing the existing data on crime rates, I found different readings and interesting statistics each year. Basing on the statistics, Detroit has witnessed a reduction in crime rate from violent robberies to property crime going down and is likely to drop further. In 2010 violent crime rate in Detroit was higher than the national crime rate in the excess of 367.58% with property crime rate also surpassing the national rate average by 80.6%.
Comparing Detroit with Michigan, Detroit's violent crime rate was high by 284.94 with its property crime rate exceeding that of Michigan too. Houston overall crime statistics showed a general trend of increase in crime rate, both violent crime, and property crime. Basing on the trends from the statistics it is expected that there will be an increase in crime over the next few years in Houston. Its violent crime rate was higher than Texas by 118.98% and the national rate of property crime has been surpassed. The statistics also pointed out the national crime rate being lower than that for Inglewood City, but California surpasses the violent crime rate in the city by 9.57% (Levine, 2015)
My proposal
To prevent and reduce crime, I propose that the Local government enacts a legislation that will ensure that upon release from incarceration all offenders are registered. The registration will make it easier to ensure that they get absorbed back into the society as good citizens, they can employ based on their qualifications and be given a place to stay. These programs will be instigated to prevent them from being repeat offenders. Parole officers will be tasked to ensure that the offenders report on time and report on any developments to the Department of Public Safety. When out of view of their parole officers should wear an ankle monitor for continuous monitoring.
