Book Synopsis WHY COPS DIE (And How to Prevent It) by : Gerald W. Garner
Download or read book WHY COPS DIE (And How to Prevent It) written by Gerald W. Garner and published by Charles C Thomas Publisher. This book was released on 2017-10-30 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides time- and experience-proven advice for responding safely and effectively to threats to a law enforcement officerfs safety. It relies on law enforcementfs bloody history to reveal what has gone wrong for a very long time — and how to fix it so that no more cops die needlessly. This book identifies the cop killers and the fatal errors that cops make, and it explores how these incidents happen and why. Most important of all, the book goes into detail about how to prevent these terminal errors and furnishes to-the-point advice for avoiding them. These tactics and techniques work. It offers the same common sense advice that solid patrol sergeants have been sharing with their briefing room charges for a long while. It has been assembled by a police chief who spent 15 years as a sergeant. WHY COPS DIE can be used in a lot of ways, all of them useful for drastically reducing the number of officers who die on the job every year. It should be issued to every law enforcement academy recruit. It is aimed across the spectrum of the law enforcement organization from the rookie to the first-line supervisor to the command staff. Chiefs and sheriffs will find it of value, as will those directly responsible for the training of law enforcement officers. By applying practical, potentially lifesaving advice to their daily duties law enforcementfs first-line practitioners can sharply reduce the number of peacekeepers who die or are maimed in the future. That effort begins here.

Beaumont starts digging, the situation becomes more complicated than he'd thought. Meanwhile, Beau's lover and fellow cop, Mel Soames, is looking into the mysterious deaths of several registered sex offenders. Details of the latest suggest foul play, even possibly an inside job, but Mel isn't letting it go. When her investigation becomes entangled with Beau's, the two begin to uncover a nightmarish conspiracy that could involve people in high places.

Assembled by a veteran police chief who served 15 years as a first-line supervisor, the book provides practical "how to" advice for confronting and mastering the multiple challenges of the first-line supervisor's life. Chances are, you are already a good leader. This handbook will make you better. It contains the information you will need to succeed as decision-maker, tactician, trainer, counselor, disciplinarian, and officer safety expert.

It will, in sum, serve as a true handbook for leadership success. As you doubtlessly have figured out for yourself, today's law enforcement employees are by no means identical in personality or work style to their predecessors of even a decade ago. But they are good people with outstanding potential. They, along with their more senior colleagues, are waiting for a great leader to bring out their best. That leader should be you. This handbook will equip today's capable first-line leader to excel in his or her vital role of influencing the future of policing. Surely nothing is more vital to an increasingly complex and too-often-troubled society.

This fourth edition still addresses the triad of communication, safety, and control, but it also reflects the evolution of the emergency care industry since the arrival of the millennium: computers and cellphones, social media, active shooters, and much, much more. This book offers emergency providers methods for managing all sorts of situations safely and effectively. THE THREE MAIN PILLARS OF STREETSENSE: • Interpersonal communication with people of all sorts (including your colleagues) • Safety in various aspects—such as managing crowds, traffic, and weaponized situations • Control of such things as all types of scenes, stress, death and dying, and even legal matters Early in her career on the streets, Kate realized how much more there was to learn beyond the straight medical training. From her mentors and years of observation and experimentation, she learned the craft of emergency care. This book offers scores of tips and tricks (and traps) for helping people in crisis. Just as many industry leaders have discovered, it is a seriously helpful book.

Download or read book Borderline written by Vincent Vargas and published by St. Martin's Press. This book was released on 2023-11-14 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An inside look at the U.S./Mexican border through the eyes of former U.S. Border Patrol agent, Vincent Vargas, who served in Iraq and Afghanistan with the U.S. Army’s 75th Ranger Regiment. Featuring a Foreword by #1 New York Times bestselling author Jocko Willink. The U.S./Mexican border stretches nearly 2,000 miles and is protected by a thin line of overworked and underfunded U.S. Border Patrol Agents, who risk their lives every day. Stigmatized in the media and fought over in the halls of Washington D.C., this is the true story of what is really happening on the U.S./Mexican border. Borderline provides an inside look through the eyes of former U.S. Border Patrol agent, Vincent Vargas, who is no stranger to violence, having served in Iraq and Afghanistan with the U.S. Army’s 75th Ranger Regiment. The story begins on the battlefields of the Middle East and culminates on the southwest border of the United States, where Vargas was tasked with protecting his country, his fellow agents, and the immigrants caught in the middle. He learned firsthand about the unforgiving brutality of the cartels, human traffickers and the desert. After bearing witness to the carnage, Vargas made the decision to join the Border Patrol’s elite search & rescue unit called BORSTAR. With almost unfettered access, Vargas provides an in-depth, never-before-seen look into the U.S. Border Patrol, from the agency’s origins to its present-day missions.
Book Synopsis Danger, Duty, and Disillusion by : Joan C. Barker
Download or read book Danger, Duty, and Disillusion written by Joan C. Barker and published by Waveland Press. This book was released on 1998-11-07 with total page 243 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An insider view of an urban subculture! While much of the literature on police analyzes critically what they do, few works address issues of how police officers feel about their chosen profession, their worldview, or their visions. This refreshingly original and unique ethnographic contribution by anthropologist Joan Barker exposes the human elementone rarely seen by non-policeof officers working for the often-controversial L.A.P.D. During her twenty years of fieldwork, Barker gathered valuable information through formal, in-depth interviews and firsthand experiences, distilling her findings into an illuminating, coherent account. She discovers that five phases of occupational socialization normatively mold officers experiences and perceptions. Fleshing out her discussion is the compelling narrative of Fred, a traditional officer whose authentic voice reveals feelings and attitudes that manifest the essence of the human who does the job of policing. An insider view of an urban subculture usually known only from its public presentation.
Download or read book LEADING COPS written by Gerald W. Garner and published by Charles C Thomas Publisher. This book was released on 2015-12-01 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this book is to provide the first-line leader with practical, time-proven guidance for making decisions that range from the seemingly mundane to the life-critical.

The embodiment of the text lies in its ability to involve the reader in tasks that must be accomplished following the use of lethal force by an officer, the leader's key duties and responsibilities to citizenry and his organization, responding effectively to high-risk, on the street scenarios, while simultaneously maintaining true professional calm and even-handedness. This book will be useful as a learning tool for those interested in preparing themselves for law enforcement supervisory or management positions, policymakers, and police academies.
