Are the police friends or foes? The public's answer to that question is crucial. As a society, how we perceive the men and women of law enforcement will dictate whether we champion or challenge them as they strive to maintain order and keep criminals at bay in our communities. In The Case for Cops: Building Community Support for the Police, Dr. Shane Stone combines legal and moral reasoning with practical insight to argue for the indispensability of police in modern society. He reinforces this case with engaging examples, real criminal cases, and firsthand accounts from his career in law enforcement. At a time when critics want to defund or "reimagine" the police, Stone offers a reasoned and persuasive argument that highlights not only the immense danger and difficulties of the job but also the impressive dedication of those who serve. This book challenges misconceptions about countless police attitudes, procedures, and tactics and sheds brand-new light on cops. To what end?

"I realized that many, even law-abiding citizens, have lost confidence in the police and need new reasons to get behind them once again. This book offers all the proof anyone will ever need to gain a fresh appreciation for police officers and the life-threatening work they willingly do so that the rest of us can sleep at night." - Shane Stone
