police decision making and domestic violence  

Définition

  • All states have enacted mandatory or preferred arrest statutes that require or encourage officers to arrest the batterer in domestic violence incidents when probable cause exists. Mandatory arrest laws still allow officers much choice about when to arrest, because the criteria for whether there is enough evidence to meet the standard of probable cause are ambiguous.
