Produktbeschreibung

Written by police for police, this second edition continues to show how consistent, standard protocols for investigation help avoid unnecessary litigation, public distrust, media frenzy, and harm to the agency and the officer's reputation. Updated and expanded, it presents new information from leading expert Randy Dickson on post-incident support and Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, the use of Tasers, positional asphyxia and Excited Delirium Deaths, report writing, and public information policies. New case studies illustrate expert tips on handling suspects, interviewing witnesses and employees, and investigating the scene, as well as critical points for working with assisted suicides.
