What Cops Know Matthew C Stelly

LoyolaNew York: Pocket Books, 1990), 336 pages's Dr. Connie Fletcher penned a book in 1990 titled "What Cops Know" (New York: Pocket Books, 1990, 336 pages). During the time of its publication up to now, the comments in the book, relying on Fletcher's interviews with actual Chicago police officers, were quite disturbing. Mr. Stelly strips the comments of those officers of their pomp and impious ceremony and reveals them for what they are: the comments and views of badge-wearing vigilantes who view minorities and women as "the other." In this incredible book, written using Critical Race Theory, Mr. Stelly offers reasoning and explanations that explain the current nadir in police-community relations.
