"Coplaw CD"
In determining whether an officer has a reasonable suspicion of a threat to his/her personal safety the courts have considered the training and experience of the officer. See United States v. Arvizu, 534 U.S. 266, 273, 122 S.Ct. 744 (2002) (“This process allows officers to draw on their own experience and specialized training to make inferences from and deductions about the cumulative information available to them that might well elude an untrained person.”);United States v. Barlin, 686 F.2d 81, 86 (2nd Cir. 1982) (“[W]e must view the surrounding circumstances . . . through the eyes of a reasonable and cautious police officer on the scene guided by his training and experience.”); United States v. Rideau, 969 F.2d 1572, 1575 (5th Cir. 1992) (“Trained, experienced officers....may perceive danger where an untrained observer would not.”).
The "Cardinal Principle of Police Use of Force restraint" is that "if it is not necessary to use more force, it is necessary not to use more force."TM |
The “Doctrine of Necessity” states that “The least amount of force reasonable is the greatest amount of force necessary”TM
Warrior Code - Step Up! - Step Back! - Step Out!TM
If it is bound to happen, sooner or later, train for it, sooner, rather than later!TM
If you forgot what you have learned in Training, the jury is sure to remember it for you!TM
