Shad White on Crime

 

 


Making arrests in "small" cases creates a deterrent

When White's office makes arrests in "small" cases, it sends a message to government employees in tucked-away offices: Someone is watching. Small thefts are where corruption begins, and rooting them out amounts to something of a "broken window" theory of policing. White has Mississippi's money handlers sitting a little straighter in their chairs. "The fancy word for that is deterrent, and that's what we're trying to create in the state auditor's office," he says.
