The goal of this unique book is to increase officers' awareness that training in low-light and no-light conditions is necessary in order for them to prevail in such situations, to help facilitate correct decision making under these conditions, and to help them understand the use of a myriad of illumination tools available for professional use today. Major topics include: (1) dim-light and no-light doctrine, including navigation techniques, threat location, threat acquisition, and threat identification; (2) flashlight doctrine, including many examples of engaging a threat using a flashlight; (3) low-light weapon sighting systems; (4) techniques used for signalling during dim-light and no-light conditions; and (5) illumination technologies supporting tactical and emergency operations, including infrared systems, thermal imagers, night vision systems, strobe lights, and lasers. Through the use of the techniques described throughout this unique and comprehensive book, the skill, professionalism, and ability of police officers to operate and survive in dim-light, no-light, and artificial light conditions will be enhanced

Download or read book The Implementation of Digital Photography in Law Enforcement and Government written by Craig A. Coppock and published by Charles C. Thomas Publisher. This book was released on 2002 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a complete guide on how to effectively implement digital photography in the field of law enforcement and government. The introductory chapter describes the features of the ideal digital photography/videography work station. It also contains discussions of forensic video analysis, the digital mug photo, networking, and the ideal lap-top computer for digital photography/videography. A chapter on legal ramifications explains the chain of custody rule for the admission of evidence at court; this also applies to digital photography. A chapter on "implementation for long-term compatibility" provides guidelines for system purchase, the staffing of a digital photographic work station, and management responsibility. This is followed by a chapter that compares the cost benefits of digital photography with traditional photography. It advises that although the cost to produce an individual image could be more with digital photography than with traditional photography, the courts, investigators, and business meetings are changing the way they view and present photographic images, such that digital photography is favored. The author advises the use of the best of both systems, while preparing for a totally digital photographic environment by setting up the necessary protocols for digital photography at the start of the conversion process. The next chapter discusses digital equipment suitable for photographic imaging use, with attention to platform, device interfaces, and RAM; digital cameras; flat bed linear scanners; 35 mm film scanners; storage devices; hard drives; compact disc; DVD; and other computer hardware and software. A chapter on video and surveillance addresses editing and editing software, as well as surveillance techniques. The concluding chapter provides a comparative analysis of photographic enhancement, alteration, and manipulation.

Download or read book A Law Enforcement Guide to Surviving the Off Duty Environment written by Daniel Bowen and published by . This book was released on 2019-08-06 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When choosing a career in law enforcement, we are responsible for the lives within our community, our fellow officers, and the representation of our department. However, many of us may forget the responsibilities to ourselves once we hang up that uniform at the end of the day. Our service never truly ends after our shift. Unfortunately, we may become exposed to those same risks off-duty as we would on-duty. Understanding our capabilities in an off-duty capacity will not assure our survival alone. We must acknowledge that we do not have the same resources, strength in numbers, tools, effective communication, or identifying markers to react in every off-duty situation. Mastering your emotions, understanding your surroundings, maximizing your skills, and minimizing your limitations as an offduty officer only benefits the world around you.

Download or read book Basic Handbook of Police Supervision A Practical Guide for Law Enforcement Supervisors written by Gerald W. Garner and published by Charles C Thomas Publisher. This book was released on 2022-02-23 with total page 219 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This updated handbook provides reliable guidance on what to do next and offers practical, no-frills advice about what to do to counter the day-to-day challenges and outright calamities that make up the first-line leader’s work life. Perhaps even more important, it offers time-proven recommendations on how to prevent a bothersome situation from escalating into crisis proportions in the first place. It will prove equally useful to the veteran, novice or future law enforcement supervisor. Its sound advice will help him retain his emotional as well as physical and moral health in a real-world environment that seems to become more challenging every day. It will help him to lead and bring his people to share his practices and beliefs in doing a very critical job the right way. Just as it should be, the handbook is short on theory and long on “how to” advice. It is literally a resource that the supervisor can tuck into an equipment bag or otherwise keep close at hand. It likewise will aid him in carrying out the very practical tasks of communicating effectively; evaluating employee performance, correcting inappropriate behavior and helping his officers survive both on the street and in the police organization. A new chapter has been added on the topic of how to lead successfully during the current, very challenging environment for law enforcement, entitled “How to Lead During Challenging Times.” Summary boxes have been interspersed throughout the text that emphasize important points for police leaders to remember. Meanwhile, the handbook will assist the law enforcement leader in working well with his own boss and planning his own career. There is no job description in the world quite like that of first-line law enforcement boss. The job is as unique as it is difficult and vital to the success of any successful police organization. This book will help them become even better at their very important job.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a general orientation for survival, using the author’s “everyone goes home” approach as in previous editions, to keep the police officer safe and secure. It details the specifics the intelligent police professional must master in order to survive the many types of risky situations he will be exposed to over a career. The book is painstakingly thorough in its approach to officer survival in an era where peacekeepers are required to be highly transparent and accountable in all their actions. Every use of force by a law enforcement officer will be closely scrutinized. This is one reason why it is important that today’s officer has access to every viable tactic and technique that may prevent the need for force in the first place. The book details everything from searching an arrested individual to searching a building; arresting a 300-pound outlaw biker to a surly teenager. Techniques and strategies discussed in the book include personal preparation for risk reduction, vehicle stops and contacts, defusing disturbances, domestic violence, burglaries and structure searching, barricades and hostage-takers, vehicle pursuits, ambush attacks, emotionally disturbed and mentally ill persons, prisoner control and transport, terrorist threats, off-duty confrontations, and reducing the emotional risks involved. At the end of each vital chapter, a quick and concise “Risk Reduction Checklist” is presented. These chapter summaries are excellent for review and merit rereading by the police professional intent on surviving to a healthy retirement. An Appendix has been included containing informative accounts of police deaths, culled from the “Law Enforcement Officers Killed and Assaulted Report” put together by the Federal Bureau of Investigation. Other accounts are also found at the end of each chapter. Each one makes a point by way of grim example, yet every tragedy described can help save the life of an alert police officer who might otherwise become one more statistic. This unique and comprehensive text will be invaluable to all law enforcement professionals, investigators, policymakers, and police academics.
