In the spirit of Christmas and open science, I'm sharing some work I did that never quite got out of the door! Quite proud of this, looking at the impact of 2017 bail reforms on domestic revictimisation.

🔍 Based on 27 studies, the authors found:
– Evidence ploys and minimization tactics increase false confessions
– Deceptive tactics, common in accusatorial methods, can do more harm than good

I've finally written up some analysis I did on the impact of a new #police IT system on crime recording and charging rates in #London... Hopefully useful to someone!

I totally geeked out at my first day of IACP's program evaluation course for evidence-based policing. It is so gratifying to be surrounded by people who truly care about finding the best ways to deliver policing services to our communities.

@lewisatkinson.bsky.social remind us was it above or below 1500 people killed by antisocial drivers?

And how many seriously injured? 30000! 😬

2/ In fact, some crimes decreased, including vehicle theft and mischief.
Why? Possibly less reporting due to inconvenience, but it challenges the idea that stations themselves deter crime.

2/ With a “driving force” (gunfire, injured victims, chaos), officers were ~80× more likely to support immediate entry.

Without it? Most chose to wait, matching modern training.

👮‍♀️ Investigators may want to use collaborative interviews when:
🔹 Individual interviews don’t provide enough leads
🔹 Multiple witnesses saw different things
🔹 Time and resources allow for it
Great potential for serious incidents.

2/ ✅ Benefits of a national database:
• Transparency & public trust
• Show force is rare & usually justified
• Identify trends & create mitigation strategies
• Correct misconceptions

Already working on my #evidencebasedpolicing class for Semester 1 2025 (I have some early enrolments). I am so excited. This is one of my favourite classes to teach. @utas.bsky.social

The training:
– Weekly 10–15 min videos
– Topics like sleep hygiene, napping, & fatigue countermeasures
– Paired with simple at-home practices
Low burden. High impact.
