When it comes to trying to keep kids out of gangs (or grabbing kids as they&#8217;re slipping perilously in the direction of the streets), Deputy Mayor Guillermo Cespedes says he&#8217;s switching the emphasis of the city&#8217;s Gang Reduction and Youth Development program&#8212;GRYD&#8212;from individuals to families.

DIGITAL SELF INCRIMINATION 
So, let&#8217;s say you&#8217;ve been arrested, and you&#8217;ve been told by the cops (or the assistant district attorney, or whomever) that you have to decrypt the hard drive of your laptop, which law enforcement has been unable to hack.

The LA Times reports that, Wednesday afternoon, in a meeting with the paper&#8217;s editorial board and reporters, Los Angeles Police Chief Charlie Beck expressed what he saw as the need for some kind of driver&#8217;s licensing for California&#8217;s undocumented residents.
While Beck&#8217;s thoughts on the topic are exceedingly practical and steeped in&#8230;oh, I don&#8217;t know&#8230;logic and [...]]]></description>

Everyone with any sense who has made a study of successful law enforcement agrees with the virtues of community policing.  If a community knows its police officers as people, and vice versa, both groups benefit&#8212;as does public safety.
Yet for decades there have been only brief, token gestures in the direction of the strategy in [...]]]></description>

COULD THE COPS HAVE STOPPED FLOR MEDRANO&#8217;S KILLER?
In mid-November of 2009, Flor Medrano, a 30-year-old housekeeper and mother of a 3-year-old, sought protection from her murderous stalker boyfriend at the Wilshire Division of the LAPD.
