PRIVATE POLICING READY OR NOT!

Call it what you will but I know that security today has reached some new plateaus and is going through an evolution unlike it has ever seen.

In this special series, we are looking at the explosion of municipal and county givernments who are turning to private security agencies to patrol thier parks, public buildings, schools and even respond to the public's calls for police service.

Many of our law enforcement agencies across the country are experiencing officer shortages, recruitment shortfalls and officers jumping ship.

Towns, cities, counties, state and federal government are now forced to rely, whether they want to or not, on private security to police their towns and
jurisdictions.

It's scary when you consider the lack of training, oversight and experience that many security officers have but it's also an opportunity for the cream to rise to the top.
