Police officers have been around since back in the colonial days. Back then, they were not called police officers they were called watchmen. Back then, every citizen was a watchmen and they did not receive pay for their duties. However, some wealthy citizens paid others to do their duty for them. People did not start getting paid to Philadelphia started paying them in 1658. Crime started rising as more towns and cities were built this went on to the 1840’s when police became more organized.

Back then instead of people in the community dealing with issues there were certain officers who were assigned to keep the city and streets safe. Police gained the power to make arrests and another person known as judge now handed down their punishment.
