abstract="This qualitative study identifies police interactions with gun violence co-victims as a crucial, overlooked component of police unresponsiveness, particularly in  minority communities where perceptions of police illegitimacy and legal estrangement  are relatively high. Gun violence co-victims in three cities participated in online  surveys, in which they described pervasive disregard by police in the aftermath of  their loved ones' shooting victimization. We build on the checklist model that has  improved public safety outcomes in other complex, high-intensity professional  contexts to propose a checklist for police detectives to follow in the aftermath of  gun violence. To build the checklist, we also reviewed the general orders of five  police departments to better understand what guidance, if any, is currently given to  police personnel regarding how they should interact with gun violence victims.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
