Problem:
New York City (NYC) have experienced a sustained crime drop since 1990s, and city officials credited the increasing use of stop, question, and frisk (SQF) by New York Police Department (NYPD). However, the available scientific evidence on the relationship between increased use of SQF and subsequent crime reduction is mixed. Given this background of SQF, what do you expect if El Paso Police Department (EPPD) implements SQF in El Paso? Do you think SQF will be effective for controlling crime in El Paso? What are the consequences using this strategy in El Paso?
