Arnie Corlin, President

Arnie is a rental property owner and developer in South Los Angeles, and a former 24-year reserve and volunteer with the Los Angeles Police Department South Bureau, last assigned to the South Bureau Homicide division.

Arnie's assignments with LAPD included retrieving and analyzing thousands of hours of security camera videos, that were primarily homicides. He also volunteered his time with numerous other divisions for the department, tasked with other types of crimes throughout the city. In addition to analyzing videos after crimes and incidents, Arnie personally installed over 130 cameras, that viewed almost 4 miles of streets around his rental properties, with most of those located in LAPD’s South Bureau. His cameras were used in hundreds of crimes, including over two dozen homicides.      

As a volunteer reserve officer, Arnie recognized and began tracking that a high number of calls for service, 60% of those calls for service, were to rental properties, and 90% of those involved in the criminal and nuisance behavior, live, or lived in rental properties. 
This included everything, from general and criminal nuisance to gang and narcotics activity, human trafficking, child abuse, elder abuse, domestic violence, terrorism and much more.  

The tactics and strategies became a significant tool to provide the ability to create a system on how to identify and intervene before bad things happened. This provided more options to develop pathways to success and opportunities before incidents occurred. 

Arnie founded Peelian Consulting as a follow-up to his many hours volunteering for LAPD and the communities. Peelian Consulting is a community based public safety consulting firm whose mission is to educate and empower community members to assist law enforcement to control crime and nuisance while reducing use of force, incarceration, and evictions.

The Peelian Principles

​​The Peelian Principles summarize the ideas of Sir Robert Peel, Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, that define an ethical police force.
Proper understanding of the Peelian Principles will allow for order and discipline with the reduction of use of force.
"THE PUBLIC IS RESPONSIBLE FOR ITS OWN SAFETY AND SECURITY. THE POLICE ARE RESPONSIBLE PRIMARILY FOR THE PHYSICAL ENFORCEMENT DEPENDENT UPON PUBLIC APPROVAL OF POLICE ACTIONS." - SIR ROBERT PEEL​
The 9 Principles 
  1. The basic mission for which the police exist is to prevent crime and disorder.
  2. The ability of the police to perform their duties is dependent upon public approval of police actions.
  3. Police must secure the willing co-operation of the public in voluntary observance of the law to be able to secure and maintain the respect of the public.
  4. The degree of co-operation of the public that can be secured diminishes proportionately to the necessity of the use of force.
  5. Police seek and preserve public favor by not pandering to public opinion but by constantly demonstrating absolute impartial service to the law.
  6. Police use physical force to the extent necessary to secure observance of the law or to restore order only when the exercise of persuasion, advice and warning is found to be insufficient.
  7. Police, at all times, should maintain a relationship with the public that gives reality to the historic tradition that the police are the public and the public are the police; the police being only members of the public who are paid to give full-time attention to duties which are incumbent on every citizen in the interests of community welfare and existence.
  8. Police should always direct their action strictly towards their functions and never appear to usurp the powers of the judiciary.
  9. The test of police efficiency is the absence of crime and disorder not the visible evidence of police actions in dealing with it.
Sir Robert Peele (1788-1850)
