Synopsis: Most students of criminal Justice, and the general public as well, think of policing along the three basic types of municipal, sheriff, and state police. Little is known about other-avenues of police work, such as the constable. In policing textbooks, when a position such as constable is mentioned, only a line or two is presented, hardly enough to indicate it is of any importance. And yet constables and numerous other alternative policing positions are of vital importance to law enforcement in Texas and in other states.
