Title: Tampa Bay Manhunt After Action Report: Lessons Learned in Community Police Partnerships & Incident Command System Summary: On June 29, 2010, at 2:15 a.m., the Tampa Police Department (TPD) suffered a tragic loss when two officers were shot and killed during a traffic stop. The suspect fled the scene on foot and evaded immediate arrest. The subsequent law enforcement response and multijurisdictional manhunt involved 22 law enforcement agencies and over 1,000 personnel during a 96-hour deployment that culminated in the arrest of the suspect. TPD established a multi-agency, Unified Command using the Incident Command System (ICS) to plan, coordinate, and manage the complex response, which included volunteers and donations from the community. TPD reported that few complaints were received, despite frequent special weapons and tactics (SWAT) deployments, numerous residential searches, significant police presence in local neighborhoods, traffic disruptions, staging operations, and extensive media activities. This report demonstrates how building relations before a crisis impacts local community acceptance of extraordinary police presence or measures for extended periods of time. Tampa’s unexpected incident provides a rare opportunity to analyze an actual law enforcement response and capture the lessons learned. This analysis can be of significant use to all local, state, and federal law enforcement agencies that need to be capable of coordinating an extended, multi-jurisdictional law enforcement response within their communities. TPD asked CNA to analyze this event, with a focus on implementing ICS and incorporating community policing. The Office of Community Oriented Policing Services (COPS) supported this analysis with specific interest in the role community partnerships played. Conducting afteraction analyses by independent observers and making results widely available to other law enforcement agencies also allows for a reassessment of strategies, policies, and procedures, which can further lead to enhanced officer safety and the prevention of lives lost.

Author: Law Enforcement-Private Security Consortium Title: Operation Partnership: Trends and Practices in Law Enforcement and Private Security Collaborations Summary: This report was produced to help law enforcement and private security organizations develop and operate effective partnerships. It provides guidelines and analysis—supported by examples from partnerships throughout the nation—of trends, innovative practices, obstacles, lessons learned, and results. The law enforcement-private security (LE-PS) partnerships featured here were formed or expanded to address a range of critical needs: to avert or respond to a terrorist attack, support urban downtown revitalization, marshal resources to combat financial crimes, compensate for law enforcement budget cuts, improve safety at special events, improve security for the nation’s infrastructure, and bring community policing approaches and new resources to bear on crimes against residents and businesses. Many of the partnerships have been able to measure success not only by meetings and exchanges of information but also by crimes prevented and solved. Key Issues and Questions Many in law enforcement and private security are already convinced, at least in a general sense, that greater collaboration is needed. To initiate a partnership or take one to a higher level, though, they need more information about what is involved and what results they can expect from their investments of time and effort. For example: How are effective LE-PS partnerships formed, organized, and sustained? How can leadership and responsibilities best be shared in LE-PS partnerships? How can partners and potential partners address the trust and legal issues that challenge the exchange of vital information? What factors make the greatest contributions to partnership success? What are the most important lessons to be taken from partnerships that are meeting and exceeding their goals and from those that are not? What remains to be done to continually improve communication, professionalism, and results? This report is geared toward law enforcement managers and security directors who want to develop new partnerships or enhance existing ones. It is organized to let readers quickly turn to the issues, examples, and resources most relevant to them. At the same time, it strives for a comprehensive treatment of the topic. It includes diverse partnership models, with enough detail to understand their objectives and operating environments, and often the challenges. The underlying message is that the challenges are worth tackling. Many LE-PS partnerships have achieved impressive results. The report is also intended for government and private-sector policymakers at the local, state, and national levels, and for leaders and members of associations that support law enforcement and security professionals. Their commitment to LE-PS collaboration has a direct bearing on what the partnerships can accomplish.

Author: von Boemcken, Marc Title: Dealing with Private Security Companies: Options for Development Cooperation in Timor-Leste, Liberia and Peru Summary: Private security industries challenge development cooperation in two ways. On the one hand, they constitute a significant part of the economy and the security sector of many developing countries. Private security thus immediately has an impact on a number of development-related factors, i.e. economic growth, social welfare and overall feelings of public safety. On the other hand, development agencies themselves increasingly rely on the services of private security companies. In some partner countries, missions of the United Nations (UN), bilateral donors, and international non-governmental organizations (INGOs) are even among the principal customers of commercial security services. Hence, they are directly implicated in the wider social and economic effects of the private security industry. How should development actors deal with private security companies? This BICC publication summarizes the main findings from field research on private security companies in three developing countries: Timor-Leste, Liberia and Peru. Each summary focuses on the specific relations between development cooperation and private security. The particular challenges, which the private security industry presents to development agencies, vary from case to case. Based on the country-specific findings, this publication concludes by outlining different options for how development cooperation can successfully align private security companies with more general developmental objectives.
