Criminal investigations sometimes fail, but why?
A new study by Kim Rossmo, Martin Bouchard and Lucia Summers explores both investigative and managerial points of failure. Some fascinating findings that probably won't surprise too many detectives.

I'm on Episode #91 of the Reducing Crime podcast. I guess Jerry is running out of "important" people to talk to. At least I'm glad I (barely, mind you) made Jerry's "100 under 100 list."
Joking aside, it's a good podcast and a good episode.
EPISODE ALERT: #91 with @PeterMoskos now available.
His chat with @Jerry_Ratcliffe covers the 1990s crime drop in New York and his related book, 'Back from the Brink'.

Here’s a potentially simple way to attract more women into policing. We need more research, but what evidence we have shows there are multiple benefits to having more women in sworn ranks. But how to achieve this?

Boys will still be boys, but does that mean they have to go through the criminal justice system? Some see police-led diversion as being soft on crime; however, a systematic review suggests it’s actually being (moderately) smart on crime. Here’s a summary of the review.

Does predictive policing work?
There are many variations of predictive policing, but getting cops to the right place at the right time is a common use. @PhillyPolice ran a huge randomized study in 2015-16 for six months and spanning the entire city.
Here are the results.
