All Commanders
FROM: Captain Widmer <l1c~
SUBJECT: January & February Use of Force Review
The bi-monthly "Use of Force Review Committee met on March 28, 2002. It was
composed of the following personnel;
Captain Widmer
Lt. Jackson
Sgt. Hurd
The review of the submitted reports for January (23 incidents-41 reports) and February
(26 incidents-48 reports) revealed no policy or training concerns. Two of these reports
were destruction of an animal. It was noted that this was the best Use of Force Review to
date. Officers are to be commended for the quality of their documentation.
There was only one Administrative issue to be addressed. Whenever officers use proper
procedure and enter a building to do a search with their weapons drawn, only one officer
need fill out a use of force report for the incident, provided there is no further force used.
Similar to the allowance for SRT incidents, the lead officer on scene should designate
themselves to do the report.
