Q Describe how your agency could combine the principles of COP and RAT as a prevention strategy for your chosen crime. In your assessment, write at least one paragraph on each of the three aspects of RAT: motivated offender, suitable target, and the absence of a capable guardian. In each of these three sections on RAT, address any adjustments you would make to your preventative strategy if you were focusing on juvenile offenders rather than adults. Using the points from the pro/con video of RAT, assess the usefulness of RAT as a model of understanding and preventing your specific crime. Explain what aspects could be useful in your prevention efforts and what aspects should be disregarded. Find one example of your police department using COP techniques or strategies to address your specific crime. Many departments use their social media pages to showcase these activities.
