Tip Of The Day..

Police Officers

In the age of ubiq­ui­tous video and mush­room­ing over­sight, how can you ensure that your use of force does not bring unwant­ed dis­cred­it upon you,and your department?
Know the law, and com­ply with it.

Where an offi­cer has prob­a­ble cause to believe that the sus­pect pos­es a threat of seri­ous phys­i­cal harm, either to himself/​herself, or to oth­ers, it is not con­sti­tu­tion­al­ly unrea­son­able to use dead­ly force to stop that threat.

Rest in peace con­sta­ble Leighton Hanson
