Security Plan on Robbery

Prevention
 The present study examined the relationship between patterns of police
arrest and subsequent variations in robbery, burglary, and aggravated
assault. It also found that while controlling for indicators of social
disorganization, increases in arrest vigor predicted decreases in robbery
and burglary, but that the relationships were non-linear: as arrest vigor
increased, robbery and burglary crime decreased; when arrest
thresholds were reached, however, both robbery and burglary crime
rates became positively associated with arrest aggressiveness.
Abstract Summary
The assumptions of structural deterrence
are grounded largely in the environmental
hazards literature of social psychology.
The research collectively examines:
 The development of threat estimates that
people make about their local environments.
 The processes by which they may transmit
those threats estimates to people within their
social networks.
Theoretical Development
Most people develop their perception of risk
related to crime and victimization through the
experiences of others .
A related consideration for structural deterrence

framework-and one that is specifically related to
policing efforts-is the identification of crimes that
may be suppressed by the increased perceived risk
of apprehension. Bursik et al.(1990, P.440) argue
that , “strong theoretical arguments have been
provided that certain offenses…are more
deferrable than other types..”Without providing
detailed justification , they note that property
crimes are more likely deferrable than homicide,
and that robbery is a suppressible crimes.
They add an additional theoretical dimension to the
study of structural deterrence ,arguing that elevated
police presence has the strongest effect on “public”
crimes-such as disorder and robbery offenses because
these crimes tend to occur in the areas in which the
police patrol. Robbery and disorder crimes contrast
with rimes more likely committed in private settings,
such as domestic violence and general assault,
because the latter often occur outside the surveillance
boundaries of police, reducing the likelihood of
apprehension even in the presence of vigorous
enforcement practices.
Sherman and Weisburd (1995)

In contrast the relationships between
arrest and crime of robbery, burglary,
auto theft, and larceny in Oklahoma City
from 1967 through 1989. Using ARIMA
analyses, the researchers found that
robbery, auto theft, and larceny arrest
predicted decreases in subsequent crime,
while burglary arrests had no significant
effect on crime.
Chamlin et al. (1992)

Its prior studies of macro-deterrence at the
city level was the former’s use of raw arrest
counts as predictors rather than
standardized arrests.
Chamblin and colleagues argued that
because potential offenders likely would be
more aware of “marginal” changes in actual
arrest activities across space than in per
capita variations in arrests, counts were
preferable to rates.

Chamlin et al. ( 1992)
They argued that such a procedure eliminated
potential “definitional dependency between arrest
clearance rates and crime rates,” which allowed
arrest to vary independently of per capita
estimations. In addition, they reasoned that raw
arrest counts are likely theoretically superior to
standardized arrests because “potential criminals
are probably more knowledgeable about, and
thereby more responsive to , marginal changes in
the number of arrest than in arrest clearance
rates.”
Chamblin et al. (1992, p. 383)

Like Wilson and Boland, Sampson and Cohen
argued that the arrest per officer ratio was more
valid than arrests per known offense in
measuring the likelihood of apprehension
because it indicates the vigor with which police
enforce the law without incorporating reported
crimes into the indicator. While controlling for
additional theoretical covariates, Sampson and
Cohen (1988) found significant inverse
relationships between arrests per officer both
robbery and burglary rates.

and Cohen (1988)
In an effort to control for possible serial
correlation between robbery arrests per
officer in the independent variable and
robbery crime rates in the dependent
variable, the study tested the hypotheses
using two versions of the arrests in the
composite, and one that did not. The models
produced virtually identical results using the
arrest vigor variable that included robbery.

Identifies areas that will house items of
sensitive nature or items of value.
Identify the main crime targets.
Assess the level of protection required.
Examine the facilities that the company
currently occupied.
What is the level of police patrol and
police activity in the area?
Security plan checklist:

Choice of detection equipment.
Vulnerable materials in protected areas.
Sufficient alarm zones to fits the lifestyle
of the complex.
Electronics outlet for areas where power is
needed.
Methods of monitoring a supervised line.
Service provided in the event of
breakdown.
Intrusion Alarm Checklist

Research suggests that limiting the amount
of cash held on the premises and publicizing
the fact that will significantly minimize the
risk of armed robbery.
Small amounts of cash being held will
reduce the attractiveness of the target.
Money should be kept out of sight.
Cash should never be counted in view.
Takings should never be discussed in public.
Cash Handling
Armed robbery is seen as a fast and direct
way of getting money. The robber may
need money for drugs, or to pay debts.
In the case of some young offenders the
thrill of the incident and the feeling of
power and may soon become a “Lifestyle
or Profession”.
This are just some factors for the robber
to pursue his motivating factors.
Armed Robbery Motivating Factors

“The most critical concern of Prevention of
Security Plan is cash retention , however
during the robbery the most important
concern is the prevention of life “.
According to Captain Frank DeMartino and he
targeted this as a key for crime intervention,
but have found it very difficult to deal
effectively, as recent corruption cases usually
happens including significant politics in
administration offices.
