Recent criminological research has developed a processual conceptualisation of scandal to analyse policing and criminal justice transgression and its attempted management. Through media content analysis and in-depth interviews with police and non-police respondents, this article applies criminological theories of scandal to a case of bystander-filmed police excessive force at the 2013 Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras parade and uploaded to YouTube. The article renders scandal more complex than existing models, emphasising outrage and surprise in cases of bystander social media police scandals involving police excessive force, in conjunction with Mawby’s processual model. However, it argues that despite the mobilising force of outrage through social media, police capture of police complaint mechanisms and political opportunism can normalise police transgression and blur lines of responsibility. Individual transgressions can be linked to a macro, ‘chronic’ scandal of police excessive force, diminishing scandal’s conceptual and practical purchase as a police accountability lever.

社交媒体,警察过度使用武力和愤怒的极限:评估警察丑闻的模型

最近的犯罪学研究已经建立了丑闻的过程概念化,以分析警务和刑事司法违法行为及其未遂管理。通过媒体内容分析以及对警察和非警察受访者的深入采访,本文将丑闻的犯罪学理论应用于2013年悉尼同性恋狂欢节游行中由旁观者拍摄的警察过度用力的案例,并将其上传到YouTube。这篇文章使丑闻比现有模型更加复杂,并强调了与旁观者社交媒体警察丑闻一起涉及警察过度武力的情况下的愤怒和意外,并结合了莫比的程序模型。但是,它认为,尽管通过社交媒体动员了愤怒的力量,警察抓捕警察投诉机制和政治机会主义可以使警察的过犯行为正常化,并模糊责任分工。个别过犯可与警察过度使用武力的宏大,“长期”丑闻联系在一起,从而减少了丑闻在概念上和实际上的购买行为,以此作为警察问责制的杠杆。
