Contemporary Case Study – Boston Marathon Bombing

Contemporary Case Study – Boston Marathon Bombing. The Boston Marathon attack was unexpected. The emergency response teams from every conceivable organization mobilized very quickly. The city was on lock down in an unprecedented amount of time. Some sources indicate that cell phone towers were out of service within minutes (bombs can be remote detonated with cell phones).

Topic prompt: What type of organizational forethought and effort did the leadership of the Boston Police Department exercise in the response to the explosion?  Factor in the leadership, management and administrative approaches and designs necessary to execute such a rapid response from a multi-agency approach. Your paper must be a minimum of 3 pages, conforming to APA standards (6th Ed), and not counting the title or reference page.  You must have a minimum of 5 scholarly sources to support your commentary.  Refer to your syllabus and rubric for guidance. Please be advised that I grade strongly on thought organization, content and APA.  Here is a thought for writing: Open with an introductory paragraph that briefly explains the problem.  In this opening paragraph, tell the reader where you are going with this paper, provide the paper’s direction and list 3 key elements that you will discuss. Transition into the main body of the paper.  For each of the three key elements you identified in the opening paragraph, offer the main idea, provide evidence (scholarly sources), analyze the evidence in support of the main idea (discussion) and transition to the next key element.  Do this for each element. Conclude by succinctly revisiting each of the elements to the opening paragraph.
