There are places that will protect her and her children (if any are involved), if she decides to leave the home etc. Homes for Battered Women, Churches, and Human Resources.

6. PEOPLE v. CARMONY UNDERSTANING AND IMPROVING COMMUNICATION IN DIVERSE CULTURES AND SITUATIONS To better the community Mr. Carmony was charged and judged of oral copulation of a minor. He was required to register as a sexual offender through the proper authorities. Mr. Carmony missed two years registering in 1990 and again 1997. Law enforcers should begin proper procedure for arrest (policing). Due to Mr. Carmony release from prison for violation, he was authorized to notify authorities of his new residence. Proper policing would deal with Mr. Carmony with professionalism but also making him verbally aware of his requirements under the law.

Policing in this case should first consider the protection of the community and respect for Mr. Carmony’s Civil Rights. Policing should involve patrolling the area, or even initiating a neighborhood watch which reveals to Mr. Carmony that the neighborhood nor Law Enforcement are not allowing any criminal behavior in the community Mr. Carmony resides in (http://kucourse.com Multicultural Enforcement E-book CH 1, 2, 3,4, 5, 9).http://kucourse.com

7.

8. GOOD POLICING Good policing deals with good communication skills and professionalism. Our nation is full of diversity and each culture has a lifestyle that requires verbal understanding and wisdom of the community. Law enforcers should understand the fact that African Americans are totally different in culture when compared to Asian Americans, with the educational training policing can achieve great accomplishments through good policing (http://kucourse.com Multicultural Enforcement E-book CH 1, 2, 3, 4).http://kucourse.com

9. POLICING CULTURAL DIVERSITY IN A COMMUNITY The community may consist of single parents, minorities, women, men, and homosexual. No matter how much diversity is found in a community, law enforcers must have the skills needed to deal with the special challenges of a changing society. A police officers’ first priority is to serve and protect without social or racial profiling, and or discrimination. Law enforcers have a very hard job trying to refrain from bias behavior and pushing personal feelings to the side when dealing with criminal behavior they totally disagree with. Knowledge, awareness, and good policing skills allow police officers the increase ability to overcome all forms of cultural barriers that hinder good policing. Historical information on all cultural backgrounds allows police officials awareness on the relationship involved between themselves and the citizens of a community. No matter the race or culture all citizens depend on the policing of law enforcers. Law enforcers must build a professional trust factor that allows each citizen the freedom needed to know their culture is respected and protected through all law enforcement officials.
