Assignment 2: Library Research—Fusion Centers as a Law Enforcement Tool
Since the terrorist attacks against the United States on September 11, 2001, there has been a
real push in local law enforcement agencies—especially large ones—to incorporate
intelligence-led policing techniques.
A part of that strategy has been the creation of fusion centers in all fifty states intended to
facilitate the sharing of police intelligence information between federal, state, and local
agencies. Consider the Lambert (2010) article, "Intelligence-Led Policing in a Fusion Center" and
the "US Government Accountability Office (GAO) Report on Fusion Centers" in the
Webliography.
The creation of fusion centers and their operations have not been without controversy. Many
civil libertarians have expressed concern that instead of focusing only on real threats, fusion
centers encourage the government's suspicion toward law-abiding citizens and groups that are
suspected of potential hostility toward government.
Tasks:
Write a 2- to 3-page paper. In the paper:
Take a definitive stand, with explanations, for or against the use of fusion centers as a local
law enforcement tool.
Discuss how these centers may be abused to violate citizen rights.
