Shots Fired by Joseph K. Loughlin,Kate Clark Flora Pdf

Get a deeper understanding of police shootings through interviews with officers involved in real-life cases Today’s media is filled with discussions about officer-involved shootings. Too often missing from that discussion are the police officers’ voices and the reality of what happens in actual shooting incidents. Through actual interviews with involved officers, this book addresses common myths and misunderstandings about these shootings. Shots Fired is a journey “behind the shield” and the experiences of the real human beings behind the badge. It explores true events through the participants’ own eyes and takes readers inside the minds of officers during the actual event. The officers detail the roller coaster of emotions and severe trauma experienced during and after a shooting event. Along with the intimate, in-depth explorations of the incidents themselves, the book touches the aftermath of police-involved shootings—the debriefings, internal and external investigations, and psychological evaluations. It challenges many commonly held assumptions created by the media such as the meaning of “unarmed” and why the police can’t just “shoot him in the leg,” creating an understanding that reaches beyond slogans such as “hands up, don’t shoot.” The book is valuable reading for anyone who wants a deeper understanding of police shootings—officers and police departments, reporters and politicians, and the public who rely on the police to keep them safe.

Apb: Shots Fired Officer Down by Frank N. Houston Pdf

This book is a tribute to all law enforcement officers who put their lives on the line daily for the public good. This is a thankless job. Police officers are not looking for a pat on the back or any reward for doing their job. They are simply looking for support from the very public they serve. This book takes you from initial training at the academy, through the jail process, and into the mean streets of the city and counties of Southern California. This book even goes further into search-and-rescue missions, extraditions, and the court process. APB: Officer Down Shots Fired is based on actual events in fictional form. Incidents like this occur across the country and even in foreign countries. Our brothers and sisters in law enforcement throughout the world understand each other. No other profession is as challenging as law enforcement. No other profession is as rewarding as law enforcement. There is no greater love than to lay down your life for another (John 15:13).
