The Need for More Effective Control of USAF Security Police Discretion.

Abstract

This limited exploratory study was conducted to find out, initially, if USAF security police law enforcement personnel were in need of more effective controls over their discretionary actions, and if so, to make a recommendation on how these controls should be implemented. USAF security police law enforcement personnel need more effective controls over their discretionary actions because lack of policy guidance results in too much informal discretion, and tends to lower their morale. this may be partially due to a possible inverse relationship between experience and need for policy guidance. A crime control plan and administrative rulemaking procedure is recommended.
