National Organization of Black Law Enforcement Executives “If the data analysis reveals that criminal activity and traffic crashes occur at a specific place within a community, then it is at that place that law enforcement activities need to be focused. A non-biased, data-driven approach to crime and traffic safety delivers law enforcement services at the right place and at the right time. To insure fairness and consistency, the approach must be uniform throughout the agency.” Joseph A.
