Study Notes

Concealment vs. Cover

Concealment provides camouflage but does not stop incoming gunfire
Examples of concealment: shrubs, fences, interior walls, and objects that keep you hidden from view
Preferable to use cover rather than concealment

Using the Senses

Sight: starting point for observation; may be affected by environmental and physical factors
Hearing: may be affected by background noises; important to recognize specific sounds indicating a crime or incident
Smell: can help identify dangerous or illegal substances; however, weather conditions or health can affect sense of smell
Touch: can help identify items during a search; maintain composure and safety

Providing Assistance

Upon arriving at the scene, find the complainant, introduce yourself, and listen to their concerns
Determine what services are needed and provide referrals if necessary
Use interpersonal skills to express empathy and understanding in situations where you cannot provide the expected level of service

Directing People to Assist

May need to call on bystanders to help in emergency situations
Evaluate the scene to determine what kind of help is needed
Authorize assistance from the public in certain situations, such as apprehending or securing a person
Give clear and specific instructions to people providing assistance

Responding to a Motor Vehicle Fire

Determine if the vehicle is occupied and begin rescue efforts if necessary
Move victims to a safe location and provide first aid as needed
Use fire extinguishers appropriate for the type of fire
Secure the scene for the arrival of fire personnel

False Alarms

False alarm: when an alarm system is activated but there is no evidence of a reasonable threat
False alarm may be caused intentionally or due to a malfunction
Document that the suspect, without reasonable cause, circulated a false alarm of fire

Lost, Stolen, or Recovered Property

Commonly reported lost property includes cell phones, driver’s licenses, and credit cards
Use a general information report to document incidents and include descriptions of property and estimated value
Note unique distinguishing identifiers to help identify recovered property

Repossession of Property

Follow agency policies and procedures for handling repossessed property
General guidelines for responding to incidents involving lost, stolen, or recovered property
Document incidents using a general information report

Motor Vehicle Repair Disputes

Florida Statutes permit vehicle owners who refuse to pay repair bills to take possession of the vehicle after posting a bond
Vehicle owner must post a bond with the clerk of court in the amount of the repair invoice, including storage fees
If the vehicle owner refuses to pay and removes the vehicle without posting a bond, investigate for theft

Civil Disturbance

Evaluate the threat level of the situation based on information relayed by dispatch, location’s call history, and personal knowledge of the people involved
Be vigilant, avoid complacency, and request backup based on the threat level
Mediate the civil disturbance and maintain the peace during a civil standby

Officer Safety and Survival

Check equipment regularly to ensure it is clean and in good working order, and make sure electronic devices are charged.
Regular training is necessary to maintain proficiency in using equipment and to develop the mindset and attitude required to stay safe.
Physical fitness is essential to handle the demands of dangerous situations, and an exercise and wellness program is an important part of fitness for duty.
Get enough sleep to perform duties well.

Factors that Compromise Officer Safety

Failure to maintain equipment and regular training can lead to serious injury or death.
Poor physical condition can put officers, other officers, and the public in danger.

Observing Danger and Signs of Criminal Activity

Pay attention to non-verbal cues, such as body language, to identify potential danger signs.
Be aware of a person's hand placement, as it can indicate whether they are a threat.
Targeted violence is often the result of organized thinking and behaviors, such as planning and preparation.
Mental health issues are rarely the main cause of targeted violence incidents.

Behavioral Threat Assessment and Management Process

BTAM is a proactive, investigative process used to identify, assess, and manage the risk of targeted violence.
It uses the law enforcement intelligence cycle to collect and analyze behavioral information about a person of concern.
The primary goal of BTAM is to prevent or mitigate acts of targeted violence.

Conducting a Security Check

Identify a person of concern for future targeted violence by responding to calls for service and observing suspicious activity.
Collect and report information about the person of concern according to agency policies and procedures.
Check for signs of tampering, damaged property, or suspicious vehicles.

Death Notifications

Deliver a death notification to the next of kin in a professional manner.
Obtain the name, address, and telephone number of the deceased person's next of kin using criminal justice databases.
Make a personal visit to the family, if possible, and follow agency policies and procedures.

Property Boundary Disputes

Property disputes between neighbors are usually civil in nature and require a recent survey to identify who owns the property.
Advise the parties to seek the appropriate remedies in civil court.

Landlord and Tenant Disputes

The Florida Residential Landlord and Tenant Act governs most rental arrangements.
A landlord can legally recover possession of the leased residence without the consent of the tenant by filing an eviction proceeding in the county court.
A writ of possession is issued by the court to the sheriff, who is authorized to evict the tenant after a prescribed notice period.
A tenant has a right to enter the residence until legally evicted, and a landlord may not prevent entry by changing the locks.

Mediating a Civil Disturbance

Separate, identify, and interview all parties involved to obtain information related to the incident.
Verify whether a crime has been committed through assessments, interviews, and observations.
Perform queries within the FCIC/NCIC systems to determine if any injunctions or warrants exist.
Provide information and resources to help resolve the conflict, such as referring parties to civil court or mediation.

Civil Standby

Maintain the peace through officer presence while serving a court order or responding to a call for service.
Civil standbys may be conducted in situations such as the execution of a writ of replevin, a child custody exchange, or a pretrial release order.
Remain impartial and use conflict management skills to prevent escalation of the situation.

Concealment and Cover

Concealment provides camouflage but does not stop incoming gunfire.
Examples of concealment include shrubs, fences, interior walls, and objects that keep you hidden from view.
Concealment provides a position from which you can observe.

Using the Senses

Sight is often the starting point for observation.
Be aware of environmental and physical factors that affect vision, such as nearsightedness and farsightedness, lighting, and color perception.
Hearing can be affected by background noises, and smells can help identify dangerous or illegal substances.
Touch can help identify items during a search.
Identify how much time has passed since the incident occurred.

Interviewing Complainants, Witnesses, and Victims

When interviewing, ask for identification and personal information.
Be personal yet professional by introducing yourself and using the person's name to establish rapport.
Separate everyone and ask each person to describe what happened.
Ask follow-up questions to clarify the incident and ask them to describe the suspect.
Take detailed notes of these accounts for documentation.

BOLO (Be on the Look Out)

A BOLO gives a description of the subject, their name, and any additional information that would help apprehend or locate them.
BOLOs can include descriptions of missing or wanted persons, stolen property, suspicious activity, or areas needing extra patrol attention.
A BOLO should include as much of the following information as possible:
- The subject's name and identifying information.
- The location of the incident.
- The reason for the BOLO.
- The alleged violation or reason the subject is wanted.
- The suspect's last known location and direction of travel.
- A description or photograph of the person, vehicle, or property involved.
BOLOs are also issued for AMBER, Silver, Blue, and Purple Alerts.

Conducting a Well-being Check

Follow agency policies when initiating a BOLO.
If you arrive at the scene of an incident and are required to initiate an immediate BOLO, relay all significant information to dispatch.
If you do not need to initiate a BOLO immediately, continue to gather and verify information to prepare a written BOLO.
Cancel a BOLO when the subject of the alert is found or the BOLO is deemed no longer necessary.
Interview any neighbors to find out if they have information on the whereabouts of the person or if a neighbor has a key.

Security Checks

Conduct security checks of residences, buildings, or grounds as requested by residents or initiated by dispatch.
Notify dispatch when you arrive at the location and park your vehicle at a distance from the building while observing the area.
Use equipment such as vehicle spotlights, flashlights, and radios to help when conducting security checks.
Look for suspicious indicators as you approach the scene.

Property Boundary Disputes

Property disputes between neighbors are usually civil in nature.
Advise the parties to seek the appropriate remedies in civil court.
A recent survey may be needed to identify who owns the property in dispute.

Landlord and Tenant Disputes

The Florida Residential Landlord and Tenant Act governs most rental arrangements.
A landlord can legally recover possession of the leased residence without the consent of the tenant only by filing an eviction proceeding in the county court.
A writ of possession will be issued by the court to the sheriff, who is then authorized to evict the tenant and put the landlord in possession of the residence after a prescribed notice period.
Until legally evicted, a tenant has a right to enter the residence, and a landlord may not prevent entry by changing the locks.

Officer Safety and Survival

Improper training, poor planning, carelessness, and complacency can contribute to officer fatalities and injuries.
Factors affecting officer safety include interactions with people, scene awareness, suspect armament, and communication with dispatch.
A community partnership can help keep officers safe.

Observational Skills

Observation is the act of recognizing an occurrence using senses to notice people, things, or circumstances.
Observational skills can be improved through practice, such as memorizing descriptions of cars, people, and details at a scene.
Focus on situations or behaviors that are important to law enforcement, and avoid distractions.

Cover and Concealment

Identify cover and concealment areas immediately upon arriving at a scene.
Cover is anything that creates a bullet-resistant barrier between an officer and a threat, such as automobile engine blocks, brick walls, and thick wood.
Concealment is an object or group of objects that creates a visual barrier but may not stop a projectile.

Interacting with Suspects

Always identify yourself as a law enforcement officer and give direct commands.
Avoid tunnel vision by scanning surroundings, practicing controlled breathing, and using task-relevant self-talk.
If you believe a suspect is armed, call for backup units and use appropriate tactics to contact, control, and disarm the suspect.

Roles of Contact and Cover Officers

The contact officer leads the approach and handles communication with the suspect.
The cover officer is responsible for officer safety concerns at the scene and watches for hazards such as hostile crowds, traffic, or escape routes.

Initiating Contact and Establishing Communication

Approach suspects carefully, keeping a safe distance and observing their position and body movements for indications of flight or assault.
Scan for weapons and verify a suspect's identity via criminal justice databases.

Well-Being and Security Checks

Conduct well-being checks on persons with medical issues or abnormal situations, such as a bad odor from a residence.
Check for signs of unlawful entry or inactivity, and contact the property owner or management to obtain information about the person and access to the location.

Death Notifications

Deliver a death notification to the next of kin in a professional manner, using criminal justice databases to obtain the necessary information.
Make a personal visit to the family, if possible, and follow agency policies and procedures.
