When encountering a Sovereign citizen as a veteran police officer, the First step informs my rookie cop that one of the first things to recognize a sovereign citizen is likely to be argumentative with police authorities.

Sixth tell the rookie to write down any documentation that we receive from these people because it will help other officials later. Even if the body cameras are on we still need to have a written copy of everything as well in case technology fails or the info has come up in court. The seventh step tells my rookie and does so myself write a description of such things such as areas they frequent. The vehicles they drive, the people they associate with, their interests, hobbies, family, their parole or probationary status, employment or social service benefits status, prior drug/alcohol abuse, scars, marks, tattoos. Eighth approach the vehicle with extreme caution, while employing all necessary tactical officer safety precautions. Ninth, arrest the suspects and read them their rights make it a point to talk to these individuals. Tenth help the rookie place the suspect in the back of the cop car. Make sure the windows and the doors are locked. Then interview the individuals and debrief them. Attempt to learn as much as I can about them.

As a veteran police officer, I would give my rookie officers some valuable informational tips about Sovereign Citizens, and how to approach them with precaution before exiting the patrol vehicle. Since my rookie is in training, I will advise that he/she back me up and pay close attention while I perform the traffic stop because Sovereign Citizens are anti-government extremists. I do not want to aggravate the defendant driver because from
Tuesdays With Morrie, by Mitch Albom is a memoir with meaning that will live much longer than the paper it is printed on. We learn that we must properly allocate our time and efforts into all aspects of life; shining light on what is truly important. Our protagonist, Morrie, shows us the unimportance of materialistic goods and the things we leave underappreciated.
As stated in the beginning, police officers are extremely outnumbered by the prison and street gangs all over the country; but, with the training that some of these police officers have received and keep receiving, they’re ready to take on any task or person despite
In today’s society no one is safe from everyday peril. Situations arise daily that may present either a law enforcement official or civilian that could warrant the need for extra protection. In some cases it is a matter of he said, she said. For those faced with such situations, documentation that could be provided by body cameras worn by police officials could be of great use. Body cameras have been tested in a small group of police departments and have provided an overwhelming positive effect. Police officers wearing body cameras not only provide the officers with extra peace o mind but give civilians documentation to back up their sides of the story. Not everyone is in favor of police
When enforcing the law, for police officers not two situations they encounter are ever the same, even when examine a large number of situations over an extended period of time. The officers are usually in the
Today, law enforcement agencies, or more specifically police officers, are under constant scrutiny from their peers as well as outside sources. Many of these problems arise from how the police treat and deal with these citizens. There is however a solution to these problems, which can not only improve officer safety, but can also protect anyone else that the officer encounters. The solution to this problem is officer mounted camera systems, or better known as body cameras. These body cameras capture almost everything an officer see’s as well as hears. This allows for protection against a police officer as well as protection for a citizen who was scrutinized for something he or she might have done or not. Body cameras are ever increasing in policing and have many benefit’s as well as draw backs.
Through history it has been shown countless time, the results of poor preparation is the ultimate demise of the people. In 1999, four non-uniformed, New York City Police officers approached a suspect whom they believed was the suspect of a reported rapist. The man was no other than Amadou Diallo, a West African immigrant. The confrontation occurred in low visibility conditions, meaning at night, as Diallo “retreated into the vestibule and reached for an object in his pocket. Believing that Diallo was pulling out a weapon, one officer shouted, ‘Gun!’ and the four officers began to shoot into the vestibule. One officer tripped, and believing their fellow officer had been shot, the other officers emptied 41 bullets into the vestibule, nineteen of which hit Diallo, killing him” (Gerdes, 2004). The direct result of poorly trained police was the death of a foreign national. In this encounter, the officers made poor decisions. The first mistake was approaching a suspect without proper identification. Since it was stated that they were not in uniforms, it can be assumed these officers were either off duty, or did not properly wear their identification tags. In such situations, being a foreign immigrant, even if Diallo reached for a weapon it would have been justified

This assignment is based upon my understanding of child development and children’s learning, considering the curriculum for the Early Years and the curriculum for the Early Years Foundation Stage/Key Stage One. I propose to outline a rationale for effectively continuing children’s learning, from the end of the Early Years Foundation Stage into Year One and include strategies to support transitions, effective curriculum delivery and links between the EYFS and the National Curriculum. Throughout the assignment I will refer not only in general but also to how my research has help me as a practitioner help my setting to effectively continue children’s learning.

The curriculum that is devised for a police officer is very important to the police officer and his or her success in their chosen career path.

I also learned that they always have to have their car camera always recording when they respond to call and their body cam .What I find interesting is that during my ride along this deputy was the only one that would use the sound pitch method where if the car was going fast the sound pitch wave would get bigger and he was explaining to me how measured speed with sound. During my first day I was able to see the basic setup that the deputies have inside their car they have a computer where they could do there reports, receive calls from the dispatcher with information about the situation, and also their guns which are locked in with a secure technology. They told me the only time they would unlock their guns is only in hostile situations other than that they use their hand gun. I also learned how to write a traffic ticket, how to make a report for a missing person, and how to manage traffic when there is a car
This book also offers a chapter on the pros and cons of becoming an officer. In general, it has information on how to become an officer. The book also sheds light on the inner world of police officers, how officers will protect their own--even if that individual is wrong. There is also a chapter on the traits an individual should have to better function as an officer. I will use this source to build on the "initial entry" of my outline. I will also be able to extract information for the "requirements" section of my
I just can’t believe there is only few more days of high school left. As the days are getting closer and closer, it's getting sad. I still remember the day I stepped into Maine East High School as a Freshman, at that time, all I wished for was to graduate from this school with good grades. High school was not the way I imagined, it is way different from what I thought and definitely different from Middle School. Freshman year was the “exploring/adventure” year, finding where each classes were, what activities/clubs were offered at this school and many more. Freshman year went quickly and then Sophomore year came up. Sophomore year was probably the least stressful year in high school but from Sophomore year my family and friends started asking me the scariest question “What are you doing after high school, which career?
This summer, I worked at a television production company in the development department. I applied to the internship very last minute and was hired just a couple of days after applying. Before going into my first day of work, I memorized the company’s website, trying to gather as much information as I could from it. I was excited to learn that the development department was female lead and, according to the website, composed of mostly women. In fact, the majority of the leadership positions at the company were occupied by women. Both my family and I were happy and pleasantly surprised that I would be getting the opportunity to work in such a rare entertainment environment where it seemed that appeared be equally men and women.
