One of the biggest issues plaguing this area is the politics involved in crime problems. Everyone wants to present a solution to the problem or at least appear like they are attempting to solve the problem and yet, very little problems get solved. On face value it appears that police from different agencies are working together to solve crime issues, at least at press conferences. However, the truth is there is very little communication within agencies about situations occurring or developing crime trends. Moreover, there is even less communication between agencies about progressive crime problems or how to combat them.Generally speaking, the crime problem continues to be out of control. Armed robberies are still occurring. While some of these issues may be attributed to the economy there is still a lot of people that can find jobs so the necessity to commit an armed robbery for money is a poor excuse for a crime problem.
Departmental, interpersonal, and agency wide crime problems must be addressed and dealt with. The longer departments buck for the spotlight, refuse to share information, and fail to work together in order to resolve crime issues, the longer we are going to have an spike in crime and violent offenses.
