On Monday, 11/30/2015 at approximately 1755 hours, Officer Lauritzen and I responded to intersection of Holt Blvd and Plum Avenue to assist Sergeant Ortiz to subdue a suspect who was fighting him. Upon arrival, I saw other OPD officers trying to handcuff the suspect, later identified as Kevin Larry. Larry was on his stomach and he was yelling that he did not do anything. Larry was resisting arrest by turning his hip side to side and was trying to pull his hands to the front of his body. Larry was grabbing our handcuffs and he was not letting them go after being told to let go. We told Larry to not resist arrest and stop fighting. He refused and we forcefully pulled his hands from his sides and placed them behind him. We handcuffed him and he

In this week’s scenario situation is a bit confusing with the actions of Officer Jones. There are the actions that he left a victim unattended while in an investigate state. It was later found that it was a domestic violence situation which could have ended with her husband returning to harm her. The actions of Officer Jones making contact with who he assumed were the actor was wrong. There are departmental policies as well as training in the proper manner to handle situations. His actions, in my view, if I was reviewing the use of force would not be justified. There are several procedure requirements that he violated that resulted in the use of deadly force.

The Tulsa County Sheriff’s Office has been in the news lately for some serious accusations. They have engaged in unethical and criminal behavior throughout the years and the information about this department is coming to the forefront for the world to see. On April 2, 2015 during a sting operation of an undercover drug and gun buy, the suspect known as Eric Harris was shot by Robert Bates 73- year old volunteer reserve deputy with Tulsa County Sheriff’s Office.

6, and 7). As mentioned before, Justice Sotomayor has been very outspoken in cases that deal with police officers being granted the legal benefit of the doubt. Justice continued by saying that her colleagues were sanctioning a shoot first, think later policy (Barnes, 2017, para. 8, and 10). Also, Sotomayor added that in the particular case it is unclear who's in the wrong. The author goes on by summarizing the case of Salazar-Limon. The officer suspected that the driver (Salazar-Limon) was driving drunk so he pulled him over which later resulted in a struggle. The driver started walking back to his car when officer drew his gun and order hi to stop. Next, the officer shot the driver because he was reaching toward his waistband, as if reaching for the weapon. No weapon was found. Sotomayor cited media reports of incidents involving individuals reaching for their waistbands and being shot at by police officers, but the lower courts said that Salazar-Limon gave controverting evidence which made officer's use of force reasonable ( Barnes, 2017, para. 12, and 16).

On September 27, 2016 an African American man was shot and killed by El Cajon police. A woman whose is sister of the man who was shot called the police indicating her brother was “not acting himself”. The man whose name Is Alfred Olango was walking into traffic in the 800 block Broadway before police officers found him behind a restaurant around 2:11pm. Olango ignored the instructions from the police officers multiple times, then [quote] “concealed his hand in his pant pocket,” Davis said [end of quote]. Olango would pace back and forth then [quote] “rapidly drew an object from his front pants pockets, placed both hands together on it and extended it rapidly toward one officer, taking what appeared to be a shooting stance,” the chief said [end

P alleges assault and false arrest. P alleges that plainclothes MOS approached him and did not identify themselves therefore P attempted to run away. P claims that MOS punched and kicked him causing bleeding to his face. MOS stated that they observed P throw a bag of marijuana to the ground. P flailed his arms to avoid being handcuffed. P accepted an

For this reason alone, the officer was allowed to point the gun at the man because he felt his life was at risk once the man had pointed an object that looked like a gun in his direction. The article title is not accurate at all because when you watch the video, it is clear to see that the man is swaying back and forth not complying with the officer. This alone shows the reader that this man was not compliant and an obvious threat to the

Reaction Officer P. Peteke was responding to an alarm activation at a commercial property. When the officer arrived at the property, the client informed the officer that two male had just stolen her purse and have run away.

According to Swanson et, al. (2014), “If an investigator/officer is lawfully in a place and sees contraband or evidence in plain view, the investigator may seize the evidence, and it will be admissible” (Swanson et, al. 2014, p.32). Her reaction to the circumstances were justified because she saw what could possibly be contraband and a firearm on a speeding suspect on an area of criminal activity. She was proceeding with the law on her side and the situation described that the area in Downtown Center City was victim of violent incidents, criminal activity was present because the suspect was speeding. Automatically Quintana becomes a suspect in the eyes of officer Bird leading to his arrest.

Offer Jones did not have probable cause or reasonable suspicion to stop and confront the individual. As law enforcement officer Jones should contact his supervisor and inform them about the tip that he received about possible drug activity at that location. He could have got authorization from his supervisor to conduct surveillance to verify that there was actually drug activity going on at that location. But because this officer decided to stop the individual without concrete evidence made his actions

Officer-involved shootings are some of the most complex cases to document. A lot of questions need to be answered after an officer-involved shooting. Such as, Could lethal force have been avoided? Who was truly threatened, the officer or the suspect? How could the incident have been avoided?

He pulled over a black SUV that was just reported stolen however it was the wrong vehicle and his partner told him it wasn’t the vehicle they were looking for. When Officer John Ryan seen that it was a black couple he pulled them over. Officer John Rayan had the couple get out of the car after the black female would not stop yelling at him. As he went to search the female he did it in such a way that it was degrading not only because she was black but because of her being a female. During this time her husband just stood and watched because he was too afraid to say anything because of him being a black man with two white cops. He thought if he said anything they would get into a lot more trouble. Also this involves sexism. It involves sexism because the white cop felt that he was more superior to the black women. Sexism is when a person feels that they have more power over someone of a different sex (Schaefer,
