What they need to do is step back and look at the bigger picture to try to find the root causes of crime and dealing with them accordingly. A lot of times especially in criminal justice leaders they tend to close of their emotions and not having any feeling because in some way it will compromise their judgement. Leaders in criminal justice tend to close their emotions and strictly enforce the law and blame the others or the people that are charged with a crime and say that it was their fault and they should pay the consequences. This creates a separation between criminal justice and the community and creates an us versus them situation like back in the 80’s.
