Mackenzie is familiar with street life. She was a drug dealer who spent time in jail and prison and then cleaned up her act after she was arrested for the third time. When she was in prison she learned a lot from her fellow inmates. Now, she spends most of her time hanging out with her friends, some of whom are still dealers. This gives her a chance to be "in the know" but not in trouble.Mackenzie has been in contact with the police again but this time they want her help. They want to know about a particular inmate she served time with and the crimes that that inmate committed. What type of policing aligns best with what Mackenzie will tell the police?

Answer:Intelligence-led policing

Step-by-step explanation:

Intelligence-led policing,is a policy that aims at identifying who might be the victims of crime and those who may still commit crime again and works along with the community to help offenders change their lives, so that they don't go back to the life of being criminals and before they can commit worst crimes.

Intelligence-led policing combines infomation sharing,problem solving policing and holding police accountable according to the U.S department of Justice.

It usually counts on the cooperation from the members of the community and other agencies such as parole officers,homeland securities .

It focus is preventing victimization,meaning taking measures that will protect society from being victim of crimes and helping criminals to not commit crime again.

Police will use the information they get from Mackenzie to predict what patterns can they expect from this offender and when can it probably occur.

According to this policing ,they gather all the information necessary about offenders which may help them predict if the offender is likely to repeat their similar act or crime or another criminal activity. This can prepare them and keel them alert.
