This book was released on 2020-04-16 with total page 21 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book covers Suspect Searching issues for law enforcement officer. The goal for officers to understand and be able to perform proper techniques of searching a subject and escorting him to a designated area. A search is a careful, systematic examination of the suspect's person at the scene of a crime, or immediately after apprehension. Body searching is a vague subject. It is very difficult to perform in a proper and effective way. In body searching, there is close contact between the officer and suspect. Being in such close contact sometimes creates a critical situation. Everyone placed under arrest must be searched. There should be no exceptions to this rule. Failure to conduct a proper search could cost an officer's or civilians' life. Generally, there is no legal distinction between searching and handcuffing a man or a woman. Gender should not be an inhibiting factor in the application of proper techniques. However, these techniques should be tempered with the individual officer's good judgment. Police officers should not confuse the object of the search with the application of the search technique. A cooperative suspect should not lull the police officer into a false sense of security. The suspect's attitude is no guarantee that they will not attempt to escape when such an opportunity presents itself. Topics and techniques presented in this book will be of both great interest and great value to trainers and students of law enforcement.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book covers Hard Empty Hand Control issues for law enforcement officer. The goal is to provide police officers with an understanding of the principles of Hard Empty Hand Control techniques. Hard Empty Hand Control techniques are defined as striking techniques. These techniques are used to control active aggression, with empty hands and feet, when the intermediate use of weapons is justified, but are not tactically available. The term hard is descriptive of the nature of the technique. Hard empty hand strikes are always defensive not offensive. These techniques are taught to protect lives from immediate danger. All hard empty hand control techniques are basic in nature; however, they address non-lethal use of force situations, and are generally reliable and effective when properly utilized. Police officers should learn and demonstrate knowledge of the striking areas as well as methods of striking. When these techniques become necessary, loud, clear, repetitive verbal commands are an important aspect of the control process. The subject needs to know what the officer desires him/her to do. In addition verbal and physical de-escalation is always preferred and should be attempted, if applicable. In training, safety is paramount. Perfect practice makes perfect. Proper technique is more important than the speed of technique application. Proficiency will increase the speed proportionally. Topics and techniques presented in this book will be of both great interest and great value to trainers and students of law enforcement.

It is critical for officers to have the necessary defensive tactics (DT) skills to successfully overcome resistance in an efficient, safe, and legal manner. The answer to achieving these results is NOT in teaching thousands of possible responses to an infinite number of potential attacks.

This book was released on 2020-04-15 with total page 25 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book covers Weapon Retention and Disarming issues for law enforcement officer. The goal is to develop the officer's understanding and awareness regarding firearms retention techniques, and to enhance Weapon Retention and Disarming abilities. Law enforcement is normally achieved without any danger to the officer or other citizens. However, police officers occasionally encounter persons who will resist violently in order to evade detection and prosecution. Officers or civilians may be killed or injured by offenders who take and use an officer's firearm. In some close encounters, a suspect may try to grab the officer's sidearm. Then the officer's equipment, stance and his/her ability to react may literally decide his/her fate. Loss of the officer's gun could mean the loss of his/her life. Officers must develop a defensive awareness that their weapon can be snatched. They should learn some basic techniques to regain control of the firearm once it has been snatched from them. In extreme cases, the officer has to deal with the threat of deadly violence, i.e. disarming a suspect pointing a firearm. Any attempt to disarm a suspect who is pointing a firearm at the officer is a last resort measure. If an officer is alert and attentive to potential dangers, this last resort will never have to be employed. This chapter will focus on weapon retention (defensive awareness, regain control) and describe some techniques for disarming which must only be used as last resort. Topics and techniques presented in this book will be of both great interest and great value to trainers and students of law enforcement.

Download or read book Weapon Retention Techniques for Officer Survival written by Robert Downey and published by Charles C. Thomas Publisher. This book was released on 1981 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This text presents techniques and information to help police officers avoid being disarmed by a suspect (take-away incidents) and then injured or killed with their own or their partner's weapon. The opening chapter on conditioning emphasizes the importance of the officer's mental as well as physical readiness. Strength, endurance, and agility requirements, an integral part of police testing and academy regimen, are necessary for the survival of active duty officers. The times within the arrest procedure when an assault is most likely to occur are identified, and ways to distinguish between passive and potentially violent subjects or situations are discussed. Fourteen case studies illustrate the errors, lack of preparation, poor training, or other deficiencies that make take-away incidents possible. Specific lessons to be learned are enumerated along with each case: search the suspects before requesting identification; never leave one officer alone with the suspect; never cuff a suspect's hand in front of his body, etc. The chapter on 'games cons play' uses photographs to illustrate the varied techniques criminals use against police officers in confrontations. Next, the Downey-Roth weapon retention technique is introduced. Its chief principle is that since action is faster than reaction, violation of the danger zone (the area within which the officer is vulnerable to a suspect's grab or kick) should be guarded against. The three factors present in weapon retention -- distance and timing, holsters that can prevent the illicit withdrawal of the weapon, and techniques that are well-rehearsed and answer countermeasures are outlined. Photographs and case studies illustrate the nine techniques, including countering approaches from the front, rear, and side to seize either holstered or drawn weapons.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book covers Use of Force issues for law enforcement officer. The goal is to provide officers with an understanding of the various force options available to them, and to make them aware of international standards, regarding use of force. The use of force is a necessary and at times unavoidable part of the duty of a law enforcement officer. Officers should use no more force than is absolutely necessary to achieve a legitimate law enforcement objective. During their normal duties, officers often encounter various levels of dangerous and violent situations. They are often faced with situations that require the use of force in order to effect an arrest or ensure public safety. Resistance can be physical, verbal, and even psychological in nature. Sometimes, the officer has to use force and even firearms to bring the situation to an end. The authority to use force and firearms is a very exclusive one. There are many restrictions for their use. The essential principles for the use of force are those of legality, necessity, and proportionality. The objective for using force is to overcome the suspect' s resistance to an officer's lawful purpose. The officer must be able to articulate why a specific use of force was justified. The officer's justifications to use force must be so clear to the officer involved that he would not hesitate when faced with this decision. The consequences of hesitation or inaction because of inadequate training can be devastating. Therefore, the officer must carefully consider the use of force. Topics and techniques presented in this book will be of both great interest and great value to trainers and students of law enforcement.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book covers Officer Survival Skills issues for law enforcement officer. The goal is to develop the law enforcement officer's understanding of officer survival for the safe and efficient performance of their duty. The majority of police officers duties become routine, though the potential for danger is always present. The duties of the officer require them to enforce laws, and to control the illegal actions of certain citizens. Survival techniques, if properly applied, provide the officer an opportunity to overcome the resistive behavior of subjects. These techniques also provide officers with self-confidence, which is needed to "win". When an officer uses force, peers, the public, the media, the government and the world review that actions. If the officer applies inappropriate force, it reflects poorly on the individual and gives a non-professional appearance to the entire force. The officer is subject to legal limitations. When the officer is faced with a violent situation, it is required that he make decisions in a fraction of a second. He may have to justify his actions in court. Therefore, proper defensive tactics training provides the officer with the tools required not only to apply the proper techniques, but also to decide the proper level of force necessary to overcome resistance. This will obviously enhance officer survivability, insure proper performance during the situation, and justification in court. Topics and techniques presented in this book will be of both great interest and great value to trainers and students of law enforcement.

Download or read book Weaponless Control written by Jeff Cope and published by Charles C Thomas Pub Limited. This book was released on 1979-01-01 with total page 285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Police techniques which offer an alternative to the display or use of deadly force are presented for security personnel and law enforcement officers. In order for officers to protect themselves from injury, protect criminal suspects from unnecessary injury, while still bringing suspects under control, they must integrate weaponless control techniques into their work skills. By mastering the methods of control during searches, control during transportation, and self-defense, the officers may act effectively and without hesitation when a critical and unexpected confrontation occurs. All control techniques are based on the effective use of 'command presence' which incorporates concepts of the officer's proper appearance, attitude, demeanor, and ability to prevail in a possible confrontation. As a tool for controlling a potentially dangerous situation, the officer's command presence, and the subject's concurrent perception of the officer's abilities, have proven to be just as effective as any of the weapons issued to the officer. For each situation a distinct level of control is required; while most police work requires only a friendly authority figure, the arrest of a dangerous felon necessitates a readiness to use the baton, sap, or firearm. As initial confrontations can quickly become hazardous, officers should maintain their awareness of their surroundings and physical and mental condition, carefully evaluating each situation. Specific techniques, such as the wristlock, for the control of violent suspects and their apprehension, searches, and transportation are described and illustrated with photographs.

Book excerpt: The book provides a theoretical and practical foundation for understanding the use of force by criminal justice practitioners and to provide examples of "best practices" for the use of force that incorporate research, principles, and philosophies. Chapter 1 discusses the background of the use of force by criminal justice practitioners, walking the reader through the history and the purpose of the use of force before turning to a discussion of the extent of force. This chapter deals with issues of police professionalism, character, and ethics. Chapter 2 considers the assessment of risk when faced with the possibility of using force against a suspect. A four stage Predatory Prevention Matrix is presented that helps pinpoint opportunities for proactive prevention efforts to quell suspect use of violence at the earliest stages. The four stages involve policy, control, risk, and phases of an attack and offer three levels (primary, secondary, and tertiary) for criminal justice intervention. Chapter 3 advises on the development of departmental use of force policies. The use of force continuum is described, which guides officers on appropriate levels of force, from simple officer presence to verbal direction, soft and hard empty hand control, and defensive and less-than-lethal tactics. Chapter 4 explores use of force training philosophies, perspectives, and techniques. The author explores training standards and programs, as well as the scope of use of force techniques, before presenting a model of best practices in use of force training.

Download or read book The Survival Code and Situational Awareness written by Tony Lee Burleson, PhD and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2012 with total page 133 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When it comes to the defensive use of firearms, the skill of not being shot is at least as important as the skill of shooting. Moving to cover and shooting from cover should be a constant part of Handgun drilling, but unfortunately, most exercises don't emphasize this aspect of defense. In a perfect world, the first shots a beginner fires would be from behind cover. Seeking cover while drawing or firing should be an instinct you are training yourself every time you handle a gun, and if you stand out in the open when shooting drills, you are training yourself to stand out In the open when returning fire, an immobile and easy target, as is very often observed in law enforcement shootings. The antidote is to shoot from cover, from the very outset, and keep it a constant part of your training. As law enforcement training shifts to this paradigm, they observe that officers who come up for qualification are uneasy firing in the open--they instinctively prefer to shoot from Behind cover when it is available. There is very little use of cover in these drills, which is why I mention it here. They can, however, be adapted. It is up to you to give yourself the kind of training you want to have.
