From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

tactical v. departmental level (mass use of Terry stops)

[edit]

Distinction needs to be made between incident (tactical) level, which is governed by law and departmental (strategic) level. See:

Fradella, Henry F.; White, Michael D. (2017). "Reforming Stop-and-Frisk" (PDF). Criminology, Criminal Justice, Law and Society. 18 (3): 45–65.

This is where NYPD got in trouble (see Stop-and-frisk in New York City) by using mass terry stops as a departmental strategy.

notes on historical section

[edit]

Before Terry v. Ohio:

  • built on English commmonlaw ("watchman" detains "nightwalkers")
  • before 1963 more than half the states did not have exclusionary rule in state law. In states without it the police were free to detain and search people because evidence would not be excluded
  • Supreme Court forced exclusionary rule onto states 1963 with Mapp v. Ohio
  • problem with exclusionary rule - police have other reasons to harass people besides arrest
  • mention vagrancy rules, etc. which were phased out around this time
  • Supreme Court forced Miranda onto states - Miranda v. Arizona (1966)
