What Do
You Do? by Travis Talbot
Decide that YOU are going to be involved in the solution
you are looking for! You and your neighborhood working together
with law enforcement have the opportunity to reduce drug related
criminal activity in your neighborhood! It takes hard work and a
great deal of patience, but you will feel safe again. The criminal
justice system is in place to be the remedy for situations like
the one facing your neighborhood. There are specific due process
requirements for investigations, arrests obtaining search warrants,
prosecutions, and civil abatements. Working together with law enforcement
is the most productive focus for your crime fighting activity.
Call Lead On America to Schedule a Neighborhood Meeting Invite everyone
living near the drug house and any law enforcement officers you
have been working with. This meeting is primarily to gather and
share information. Have someone act as secretary to record information,
pass around the sign-in sheet, and distribute materials. Following
the introductions, neighbors will be asked to share illicit activities
they have observed and give detailed information about any contact
they have had with law enforcement. Make a list of deputies who
have responded to neighborhood complaints. |
