Drugs, bribes, falsifying evidence, unjustified force and kickbacks: there are many opportunities for cops to act like criminals. Jammed Up is the definitive study of the nature and causes of police misconduct. While police departments are notoriously protective of their own—especially personnel and disciplinary information—Michael White and Robert Kane gained unprecedented, complete access to the confidential files of NYPD officers who committed serious offenses, examining the cases of more than 1,500 NYPD officers over a twenty year period that includes a fairly complete cycle of scandal and reform, in the largest, most visible police department in the United States. They explore both the factors that predict officer misconduct, and the police department’s responses
to that misconduct, providing a comprehensive framework for understanding the issues. The conclusions they draw are important not just for what they can tell us about the NYPD but for how we are to understand the very nature of police misconduct. ACTUAL MISCONDUCT CASES »» An off-duty officer driving his private vehicle stops at a convenience store on Long Island, after having just worked a 10 hour shift in Brooklyn, to steal a six pack of beer at gun point. Is this police misconduct? »» A police officer is disciplined no less than six times in three years for failing to comply with administrative standards and is finally dismissed from employment for losing his NYPD shield (badge). Is this police misconduct? »» An officer was fired for abusing his sick time, but then further investigation showed that the officer was found not guilty in a criminal trial during which he was accused of using his position as a police officer to protect drug and prostitution enterprises. Which is the example of police misconduct?

Review
"This inside look at bad cops comes with a powerful corollary that demands further exploration: 'Good policing is not the absence of police misconduct.'"-New York Times
“Jammed Up provides a lively empirical study of career-ending misconduct in the NYPD from the late 1970s through the 1990s. Interpreted through the lens of criminological theories of deviance and enriched by sketches of police officer miscreants, Jammed Up will be of interest to students, scholars and members of the general public who are curious about the causes of police delinquency.”-Jennifer Hunt,author of Seven Shots: An NYPD Raid on a Terrorist Cell and Its Aftermath
“Jammed Up is a must-read for police scholars and practitioners who want to understand police misconduct and how it impacts officers and organizations. Robert Kane and Michael White brilliantly weave their analysis of bad policing into layers of information that help us understand good policing. This comprehensive volume helps us understand how to investigate police misconduct and how to understand it. It is a complex book that uncovers the dark side of policing but keeps it in its proper context.” -Geoffrey P. Alpert,co-author of Policing: Continuity and Change
"Not only is the book extremely well researched and complete with references and citations of the scientific literature pertaining to police misconduct studies, but the writing style is accessible to a general audience as it uses a character-driven model of police misconduct cases and examples."-Criminal Law and Criminal Justice Books
"This study should be of great value to scholars, advanced students, and police practitioners."-Choice

Clear and fascinating to a non-academic
By T. J. Fleck
"Jammed Up" is absolutely not an "expose on dirty cops" or anything lurid like that. It's a scientific paper rewritten for The Rest of Us. But that's not to say it's boring. Suggested by a friend, Jammed Up was a fascinating read on many levels. A quick read will provide fun facts and lingo about policing in general and the NYPD in particular. For me, TV and movies provided abundant footage behind my eyes as I read about the different scenarios where cops go astray. The authors know this, and start by citing the movie Serpico, then transitioning to a number of case studies about real cops. These are referenced throughout the remainder of the book, giving a powerful human touch to what otherwise might have been too analytical. I think you could ignore the science entirely and come away with a better appreciation for what a strange and separate society a police force is. I could clearly see how hard it might be to stay honest in that job, or even define what "honest" means.
Then there's the huge labor involved in the authors' study: taking tons of mushy information gathered by real people on paper forms in a huge and political bureaucracy over a period of decades, deciding where to draw the lines and attach the labels, entering and crunching the data and finally suggesting actionable conclusions. For me it was a very thought-provoking introduction to the complications of quantifying real life. In these days of Big Data where every move we make is statistically analyzed, Jammed Up gives a concrete example of that kind of analysis.
I recommend this book as a refreshing break to fiction or popularized non-fiction. Jammed Up is the opposite of many analyses of our society that start with a conclusion, then pick the data to support that conclusion. The authors suggest conclusions which are suggested by the data, but they don't seem to overstep or preach. In fact, in concluding and looking forward, Kane points out that proactive steps based on this analysis of Bad Cops are probably not the same as those which would identify and encourage Good Cops. Here he brings up some important questions and suggestions that reminded me of the classic management adage: "Measure what you want to improve."

...bad guys are good guys...good guys are corrupt...real bad guys are dispicable!
By PL Pearl Kirkby
The bad guys are the good guys, the good guys are corrupt...and the really bad guys are purely devient...what's a reader to do?!
I missed the first book in the series, "Mickey Take", and that might be the reason I found the prologue a little slow the first time I read it (although, when I re-read it, I found it much more relevant); but from the first page of the first chapter, the action very quickly gained momentum.
The introductions and backstories of the protagonist(s) are realistic in that, in real life, everyone has admirable characteristics as well as, sometimes, serious character flaws.
Herb Long (the first good, bad guy...that is to say, not exactly your most law abiding citizen, but certainly no thug) is shown to have an inescapable sense of right and wrong, even if his 'business' is a bit left of the law.
As far as "Jam" is concerned (the second good, bad guy...but who is the primary character), I was able to relate to him in a personal way, having known a number of young men like him, in 'the hood' where I once lived. Tough as nails (a bit thuggish, and a boxer to boot), bitter and bent on revenge concerning a childhood experience where his best mate was beaten and degraded...and yet with a heart of gold...you can't help but stand in his corner and cheer him on; every action he takes is understandably fitting and forgivable, especially because of his sense of loyalty to that childhood friend, Jabba, a young man who is 'slow' since birth.
Mac is just tough. He's in Herbs employ, a situation that appears to have a significant history. It is inferred that Mac is Herb's main enforcer. And yes, I agree with another reviewer...Mac can scare the daylights out of you!
Siobhan was the only character about whom I felt slightly cheated; I just wish I knew her better. Her character is like one of those people who waltzes into your life and then, just as you're really beginning to form an attachment to her, she stops visiting! A personable waitress, she meets both Jam and Herbert in the cafe where she now works, after having given up her training as a nurse (this turn of events is explained...and, at the last moment, has no small significance).
As an aside: one of my very favourite aspects of Mr. Hayward's writing style in this book is in the manner of Jam's and Jabba's dialogue...it is written "in dialect", and I could actually 'hear' them speak. Not every writer is capable of the spelling, syntax and appropriate punctuation that realistically portrays the various dialects of any given language. Hats off to this author for a job well done!
A very short summary: Herb, a gentleman to all practical appearances, seems to be in the midst of a shady operation, for which he needs a lookout...a watchguard, per se, although he has a few enforcer(s ?) on his payroll...to insure his orders are being followed.
Jam, who is, initially, a labourer working on Herb's house, stands up to Mac when he (Mac) starts bullying him and his constant companion, Jabba; tough Mac suffers a wee bit of humiliation when tough Jam proves himself to be more than a match during the ensuing altercation! It is at this time that Herb offers Jam the change of position...and we start wondering if Mac will let bygones be bygones.
It is also at this time that we begin to be introduced to the violence and perverse nature of the true criminal element of Riggs...a sadistic man who gets pleasure from forcing the most horrific pain on his wife, has at least one cop in his pocket through blackmail and who also, unbeknownst to Jam, has in his employ the last bully who assaulted Jabba as a child.
I will not go on...you need to read this book yourself. But be forewarned, it doesn't have the ideally happy ending that seems to be on the way!!
And speaking of the ending: I know there will be another followup, but I wish there had been a bit more detail on Jam's incarceration and Herb's influence or actions to help him.
Thanks so much to Steven Hayward for providing this ARC of 'Jammed Up' so that I might review it. It is a book with anger inducing violence, "Awwww!" inspiring, budding romance ( j-u-s-t enough to make it interesting) and heart racing action.
Bravo!
