Report Writing for Criminal Justice Professionals

Report Writing for Criminal Justice Professionals

Larry S. Miller; John T. Whitehead

TAYLOR FRANCIS LTD
2026
sidottu
This tried and tested book provides practical guidance with specific writing samples and guidelines for producing strong reports in criminal justice–related professions. It addresses many facets of written communication in criminal justice, from police and security officer reports, to investigative findings, probation or parole reports, and other corrections forms, and forensic or scientific documentation. Criminal justice professionals often spend a large portion of their worktime writing reports. The information provided in these reports is crucial to the functioning of the justice system. Many law enforcement, security, corrections, and probation and parole officers have not had adequate training in how to provide well-written, accurate, brief, and complete reports. This book covers everything officers need to learn from basic English grammar to the difficult but often-ignored problem of creating documentation that will hold up in court. This new edition includes coverage of technological advances and potential uses of artificial intelligence in digital and electronic report writing. This book is suitable for undergraduates across the Criminal Justice curriculum as well as for police academies and other criminal justice training venues.

Introducing the fundamentals of ethical theory, Ethics in Criminal Justice: In Search of the Truth, Seventh Edition, exposes the reader to the ways and means of making moral judgments by exploring the teachings of the great philosophers, sources of criminal justice ethics, and ethical issues in the criminal justice system.

The seventh edition features discussion of current critical issues in criminal justice: accusations of racism, police shootings, stop and frisk policy, marijuana laws, mass incarceration, life sentences, prison privatization, the swift and certain deterrence model of probation, excessive probation fees, and the Good Lives Model in corrections. The seventh edition also offers completely revised coverage of capital punishment and the rehabilitation debate, and a discussion of how juvenile justice often fails to live up to its ideals. Finally, the book features new case studies of recent ethical dilemmas in criminal justice to enhance students’ understanding of real-life ethics decision-making.Suitable for advanced undergraduates or graduate students in criminal justice programs in the US and globally, this text offers a classical view of ethical decision-making and is well-grounded in specific case examples.

Burnout in Probation and Corrections

Burnout in Probation and Corrections

John T. Whitehead

Praeger Publishers Inc
1989

John T. Whitehead analyzes the extent and causes of job burnout in probation officers and correctional officers. Challenging models of burnout that focus on individual-level causes, Whitehead demonstrates that the findings support an organization model of the sources of job burnout -- a finding that has significant implications for managerial policy aimed at reducing burnout. Further, Whitehead shows that while burnout appears to be a serious problem for a sizeable minority of workers, it is not a problem for the majority. Ideal as supplemental reading for courses in criminal justice, criminology, and social work, Burnout in Probation and Corrections sheds new light on the incidence, causes, and possible remedies for job burnout in these professions.Whitehead's study is unique in its analysis of multiple samples from several states and regions and from two different time periods. The study also includes a qualitative analysis of worker comments on the factors contributing to burnout, a comparison of correctional officer versus probation officer burnout, and a comparison of male and female probation officer burnout. Based on his research, he indicates that client contact is not the cause of burnout in probation and correctional officers, a conclusion that contrasts sharply with some of the previous theoretical work in the field. Instead, Whitehead demonstrates, organizational issues such as role conflict are critical sources of burnout. Therefore, managerial policy should center upon organizational improvements to reduce job stress and job dissatisfaction.
