Social & News Media’s Effects on Law Enforcement
Shawn Morrow · Global Journal of Forensic Science & Medicine · 2019
This investigation indicates that social and news media’s fake news threatens law enforcement officers. Law enforcement is experiencing escalations in resisting arrest, physical assaults, and murders by subjects targeting the police. These increases in criminal behaviors have law enforcement de-policing within the communities, and the catalysts are social and news media’s false reports that all police officers are racist.
