Police Officers are required by the ADA to ensure effective communication to individuals who are deaf or hard of haring.
- A.
  
  True
- B.
  
  False
Correct Answer
A. True

Explanation
The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) mandates that police officers must ensure effective communication to individuals who are deaf or hard of hearing. This means that officers need to provide appropriate accommodations, such as sign language interpreters or written communication, to ensure effective interaction with individuals who have hearing disabilities. By doing so, law enforcement agencies can ensure equal access to justice and protect the rights of individuals with disabilities.

People whose disability is known as a Mental retardation have low IQ’s and never make good witnesses
- A.
  
  True
- B.
  
  False
Correct Answer
B. False

Explanation
This statement is false. Mental retardation, also known as intellectual disability, does not necessarily mean that a person has a low IQ or cannot be a good witness. While some individuals with intellectual disabilities may have lower cognitive abilities, it does not mean they are incapable of being reliable witnesses. Each individual should be assessed on a case-by-case basis, taking into account their specific abilities and limitations. It is important to avoid generalizations and assumptions about individuals with disabilities.

6.

A law enforcement agency receives a call from a woman complaining that someone has broken into her residence. The police department keeps a list of dwellings where people with AIDS are known to reside. The woman’s residence is on the list because her son has AIDS. Police fail to respond to her call, because they fear catching the HIV virus. Have the officers discriminated against her based on her association with an individual who has AIDS
- A.
  
  True
- B.
  
  False
Correct Answer
A. True

Explanation
The officers have discriminated against the woman based on her association with an individual who has AIDS. This is evident from the fact that the police failed to respond to her call due to their fear of catching the HIV virus. By not providing the same level of service and protection to the woman solely because of her association with someone with AIDS, the officers have engaged in discriminatory behavior.

Rate this question:
7.

The ADA does not prevent police officers from responding appropriately to real threats to health or safety, even if an individual’s actions are a result of her disability
- A.
  
  True
- B.
  
  False
Correct Answer
A. True

Explanation
The ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) does not restrict police officers from taking appropriate action to address genuine threats to health or safety, even if the person's actions are influenced by their disability. This means that law enforcement can respond accordingly to situations where there is a real danger, regardless of whether the individual's disability contributed to their behavior.

A police officer engaged in a lawful traffic stop and can order the driver out of the car without further justification
- A.
  
  True
- B.
  
  False
Correct Answer
A. True

Explanation
A police officer can order a driver out of the car during a lawful traffic stop without further justification because it is considered a reasonable safety precaution. This allows the officer to maintain control of the situation and ensure their own safety as well as the safety of others. Additionally, it allows the officer to conduct a more thorough investigation if necessary.

Rate this question:
9.

A police officer that engages on a lawful traffic stop cannot order the passenger out of the car unless the officer has probable cause to believe the passenger has done something wrong.
- A.
  
  True
- B.
  
  False
Correct Answer
B. False

Explanation
A police officer that engages in a lawful traffic stop does have the authority to order the passenger out of the car, even without probable cause to believe the passenger has done something wrong. This is because during a traffic stop, the officer's primary concern is for their safety, and ordering the passenger out of the car allows the officer to maintain control of the situation and ensure their own safety.

Bias based policing is an illegal and ineffective practice because
- A.
  
  It limits an officer's effectiveness by not fully acknowledging that criminal behavior is found in all races and ethnicities
- B.
  
  Sound research shows that bias-based interdiction of drug traffickers results in failure to apprehend significant numbers of criminals and substantial amounts of illegal drugs
- C.
  
  It negatively impacts personal integrity and the public perception of law enforcement
- D.
  
  It violates fundamental constitutional principles
- E.
  
  It may lead to expensive litigation and punitive damages against departments and individual officers
Correct Answer(s)
A. It limits an officer's effectiveness by not fully acknowledging that criminal behavior is found in all races and ethnicities
B. Sound research shows that bias-based interdiction of drug traffickers results in failure to apprehend significant numbers of criminals and substantial amounts of illegal drugs
C. It negatively impacts personal integrity and the public perception of law enforcement
D. It violates fundamental constitutional principles
E. It may lead to expensive litigation and punitive damages against departments and individual officers

Explanation
Bias-based policing is considered illegal and ineffective because it fails to recognize that criminal behavior exists across all races and ethnicities. Research has shown that when law enforcement practices bias-based interdiction of drug traffickers, it often leads to a failure in apprehending a significant number of criminals and seizing substantial amounts of illegal drugs. Additionally, bias-based policing negatively impacts personal integrity and public perception of law enforcement. It is also a violation of fundamental constitutional principles. Furthermore, engaging in bias-based policing can result in costly litigation and punitive damages against both police departments and individual officers.

A police officer issues a person a traffic citation. Exceptions to the 4^th amendment allow the officer to search the vehicle before letting the person go
- A.
  
  True
- B.
  
  False
Correct Answer
B. False

Explanation
Exceptions to the 4th amendment do not allow a police officer to search a vehicle simply because they issued a traffic citation. The 4th amendment protects against unreasonable searches and seizures, and there are specific criteria and exceptions that must be met for a search to be considered legal. Issuing a traffic citation alone does not provide justification for a search without consent or a warrant. Therefore, the statement is false.

Rate this question:
12.

While parked by the side of 9^th West an officer notices that all vehicles on the road are exceeding the posted speed limit. The officer can stop any of the speeding vehicles, but decided to use race or ethnicity to decide who to stop. This is called what?
- A.
  
  Deductive reasoning
- B.
  
  Racial diversity
- C.
  
  Racial profiling
- D.
  
  Objective reasonableness
- E.
  
  Criminal profiling
Correct Answer
C. Racial profiling

Explanation
Racial profiling is the correct answer because it refers to the practice of using race or ethnicity as a basis for law enforcement decisions, such as who to stop or search. In this scenario, the officer is using race or ethnicity to decide which speeding vehicles to stop, which is an example of racial profiling. Deductive reasoning refers to logical reasoning based on premises and conclusions, racial diversity refers to the variety of races within a group, objective reasonableness refers to a legal standard for evaluating an officer's actions, and criminal profiling refers to the practice of identifying characteristics of potential criminals based on behavior patterns.

Rate this question:
13.

Criminal profiling is
- A.
  
  Not the same thing as either biased-based policing or racial profiling
- B.
  
  Occurs when police use racial or ethnic characteristics in stopping an individual because his description matches that of an actual suspect
- C.
  
  Race or ethnicity functions as the equivalent of hair color, height or weight which can be used in combination with other factors to paint a more accurate portrait of a suspected criminal
- D.
  
  Pumpkin head harvey is attacked because of the size of his huge melon
Correct Answer(s)
A. Not the same thing as either biased-based policing or racial profiling
B. Occurs when police use racial or ethnic characteristics in stopping an individual because his description matches that of an actual suspect
C. Race or ethnicity functions as the equivalent of hair color, height or weight which can be used in combination with other factors to paint a more accurate portrait of a suspected criminal

Explanation
The correct answer explains that criminal profiling is different from biased-based policing or racial profiling. It further states that racial or ethnic characteristics are used by police in stopping an individual if their description matches that of an actual suspect. This is because race or ethnicity can be considered as factors, similar to hair color, height, or weight, that can contribute to a more accurate profile of a suspected criminal. The statement about "pumpkin head Harvey" being attacked because of the size of his huge melon is unrelated to the explanation.

You are authorized to frisk a person for illicit drugs provided that you have reasonable articulable suspicion that the person is carrying concealed drugs
- A.
  
  True
- B.
  
  False
Correct Answer
B. False

Explanation
Frisking a person for illicit drugs requires more than just reasonable articulable suspicion. In order to legally frisk someone, law enforcement officers must have probable cause to believe that the person is armed and dangerous. Reasonable articulable suspicion alone is not enough to justify a frisk for drugs.

If reasonable in scope, traffic stop based on probable cause or reasonable suspicion that the driver violated applicable traffic and equipment regulations is lawful under the 4^th amendment
- A.
  
  True
- B.
  
  False
Correct Answer
A. True

Explanation
This statement is true because the 4th amendment allows law enforcement to conduct a traffic stop if they have probable cause or reasonable suspicion that the driver has violated traffic and equipment regulations. This means that as long as the stop is within a reasonable scope and there is a valid reason to believe that a violation has occurred, the stop is considered lawful under the 4th amendment.

When Law enforcement practices are perceived to be biased or unfair, the general public, and especially minority communities, are less willing to trust and confide in officers, report crimes, be witnesses at trials, or serve on juries
- A.
  
  True
- B.
  
  False
Correct Answer
A. True

Explanation
When law enforcement practices are perceived to be biased or unfair, it creates a lack of trust and confidence in officers among the general public, particularly among minority communities. This lack of trust leads to a decrease in reporting crimes, reluctance to serve as witnesses in trials, and unwillingness to serve on juries. This can have a detrimental impact on the criminal justice system as it relies on the cooperation and participation of the public to effectively carry out its functions.

17.

If an officer has probable cause to search a car; she can search the whole car for probable cause items without a warrant
- A.
  
  True
- B.
  
  False
Correct Answer
A. True

Explanation
If an officer has probable cause to search a car, they are allowed to search the entire car without a warrant. Probable cause refers to having enough evidence or reasonable belief that a crime has been committed or that there is evidence of a crime in the car. This exception to the warrant requirement allows law enforcement officers to quickly search a vehicle when they have sufficient reason to believe that it contains illegal items or evidence.

- A.
  
  True
- B.
  
  False
Correct Answer
A. True

Explanation
Police officers should generally focus on a person's conduct rather than their physical characteristics such as skin color when making decisions about dealing with a citizen. This means that the officer should base their actions and decisions on the behavior and actions of the individual, rather than making judgments or assumptions based on their appearance. This approach promotes fairness, equality, and the avoidance of discriminatory practices in law enforcement.

- A.
  
  True
- B.
  
  False
Correct Answer
B. False

Explanation
The statement is false because it is not ethical or legal to consider a person's race or ethnicity when drawing inferences about criminal activities. It is discriminatory and goes against principles of fairness and equality. Inferences should be based on individual behavior and evidence, rather than generalizations about race or ethnicity.

- B.
  
  False
Correct Answer
B. False

Explanation
The statement is false. Police officers are not permitted to consider a person's race to determine the likelihood that the person is a member of a gang. Racial profiling is considered discriminatory and goes against the principles of equality and fairness. Law enforcement should focus on evidence-based practices and individual behavior rather than making assumptions based on race or ethnicity.

The 4th amendment protects against unreasonable searches and seizures, while the 14th amendment guarantees equal protection under the law. Racial profiling and biased based policing involve targeting individuals based on their race or ethnicity, which goes against the principles of equal protection and can result in unreasonable searches and seizures.

Information that would lead an objectively reasonable officer to suspect that a crime has possibly been committed and a particular suspect might have committed the crime or may be about to commit the crime is known as what
- A.
  
  Probable cause
- B.
  
  Objective reasonableness
- C.
  
  Reasonable suspicion
- D.
  
  Reasonable grounds
- E.
  
  Reasonable reasonableness
Correct Answer
C. Reasonable suspicion

Explanation
Reasonable suspicion is the correct answer because it refers to the information that would lead a reasonable officer to suspect that a crime has possibly been committed and a particular suspect might have committed or is about to commit the crime. This standard is lower than probable cause but still requires specific and articulable facts that justify the suspicion. It is a key concept in criminal law and is often used as a basis for conducting a brief investigative stop or detention.

In Evaluating whether sexual harassment has occurred, the intent of the alleged harasser must be considered
- A.
  
  True
- B.
  
  False

Explanation
In evaluating whether sexual harassment has occurred, the intent of the alleged harasser is not a determining factor. The focus is on the impact of the behavior on the victim, rather than the intentions of the harasser. Even if the harasser did not intend to cause harm, if their actions create a hostile or offensive environment for the victim, it can still be considered as sexual harassment. Therefore, the statement is false.

  True
- B.
