The Texarkana Arkansas Police Department hosted the StreetCops Training Organization in their training facility on Wednesday.
Here is a Press Release from TAPD:
We have 38 law enforcement professionals from all over the State of Arkansas here today searching for a higher form of quality training.
We appreciate Instructor Zach Miller spending the day with us and look forward to bringing the Street Cops Orginization back to Texarkana soon!
Synopsis: The days of police officers relying on “what we’ve heard” and leaning on “we’ve always done it that way” are over! Police officers must know what the courts have deemed acceptable procedure in order to perform their duties in a constitutionally compliant manner in today’s modern policing. Having an in-depth knowledge of case law will lay the foundation to empower all police officers to perform their jobs confidently and legally.Throughout this course intended for Arkansas police officers, Instructor Zach Miller will examine, review, and explain significant U.S. Supreme Court and Arkansas State Specific Case Law that is relevant to search and seizure. The goal of this course is to demonstrate how this case law can affect how police officers must perform their duties. Miller will teach students how to avoid evidence exclusion, increase convictions, and reduce civil liability, and he will share his own personal experiences of actively applying case law to his policing.Furthermore, “Arkansas Case Law That All Cops Need to Know” breaks down the complex issues associated with case law and presents them in an easily understandable format for all police officers to use in the field to achieve their investigative goals. Additionally, all the students attending the course will be given all the materials for this course so they will be able to reference cases during their duties.
