This article focuses on the most often over-looked problems in the policing of the ghetto. Policing in these areas are characterized by problems like deficiencies of investigation, public interest, public cooperation and prosecution. These problems are to be found in every major city of the U.S., running parallel with high crime rates, abortive prosecution and danger for the people who, by choice or circumstance, live within the community. It is generally accepted that there are fewer solutions, less prosecution and shorter sentences for crimes committed by Negroes against other Negroes.
