Twenty five techniques of situational prevention is a proactive move to keep crime in countries at bay. Its objective is crime prevention: intervening in the casual chain to prevent crime from occurring at all. According to Lab, S. (2004), primary, secondary and tertiary prevention are the main attributes of crime prevention. I will talk about murder; propose a potential solution to the crime, explain how the technique will effectively reduce the possibility of the crime occurrence and results expected on social and crime justice if this technique is applied.
Law enforcement agencies propose different strategies and methods to combat murder; efficient resource distribution, crime mapping, crime data collection or suspect location. I propose community outreach, where I advice that police institutions should be of reach to the community. Lab,S. (2004) argues that for security to be achieved, we have to be proactive and not reactive. Citizens should be sensitized to know the emergency numbers like the 911 for help if at all there is a security breach.
Correctional institutions should be brought closer to the communities for easier access; the courts and the juveniles that would help reform the law offenders especially when murder is involved as cited in Lab, S. (2004). Installing surveillance cameras all over the building can help to keep watch and identify the murderers. If community outreach is implemented, the level of murder crimes will reduce immensely. However, more community outreaches that provide job opportunities to the local should be introduced as cited in Clarke, R.V. (2004). Lack of jobs engineer most of the crimes such as murder. Introduction of such programmes will positively contribute socially and in crime justices.
