ANIMAL ABUSE: WHY COPS CAN AND NEED TO STOP IT (45 MINUTES)
Far too often when law enforcement officers run across cases of animal abuse, they
slough it off as “kids being kids.” It is much more than that. Studies show that people
who abuse animals also abuse other people. Just for starters, Jeffrey Dahmer, Ted Bundy and John Wayne Gacy are prime examples of animal abusers who acquired a taste for blood early in life by abusing animals. It is a serious crime that can lead to more serious crime. Our nation’s law enforcement officers need to know how handle evidence and vigorously investigate animal abuse cases. This training video provides invaluable
information about this important area of investigation and prosecution. (includes Fact Sheet)

country's law enforcement community. We recommend you add this program your training library. (includes lesson plan and study guide)
SIMPLE SPANISH COMMANDS (30 Minutes)
With almost absolute certainty all peace officers at some point in their careers will deal
with subjects who speak only Spanish. The Hispanic minorities in many of our urban and, indeed, rural communities are growing at a fast rate. Even communities in areas that traditionally had minimal, if any, Hispanic influence are changing. It's crucial, therefore, for officer safety and departmental liability that officers who deal with Hispanics have some knowledge of basic Spanish commands a cop would use. This program guides officers through the most commonly used law enforcement Spanish commands and teaches them via a very easy verbal refresher, taught by Officer Brandy Walker of the St. Louis Metropolitan Police Department. (includes lesson plan and study guide)

lifesaving show and tell for traffic cops. You'll see and learn about the different elements
in making a traffic stop involving a big rig as opposed to a passenger vehicle. And, there
are many of them, from approach to safe interrogation of drivers and passengers. Each
and every approach and tactic is clearly visualized for officers, and this video can, too, be re-visited by officers without losing any momentum in their training. An excellent
tutorial that will explode some myths in big rig stops and approaches. (includes lesson plan and study guide)
LESS THAN LETHAL FORCE OPTIONS (20 Minutes)
More and more departments are expressing great interest in the options available to them that involve less than full lethal force. This program is geared specifically to provide

history of the Cincinnati Police Department. The incident centers on the attempted arrest
of a 350 pound man high on drugs. He resisted arrest and fought with officers for several
minutes before they finally subdued him with batons. However, he died at the scene. The officers did everything right, but the outcome was wrong. Many lessons learned here

bike patrols. Learn why bike patrols are effective and why you should consider
establishing one. In addition, many campus police departments are considering their own K-9 units. This program tells you how to go about it, what questions to ask and how to get it off to a good start. The program also includes important information for campus
cops who may one day find themselves on a crime scene working with dogs. We examine the do’s and don’ts.
REPORT WRITING/READING BODY LANGUAGE
This important program gives campus law enforcement officers the information they
need to be effective in writing their reports. It is the worst part of an officer’s job.
However, it can be the most important. Ineffective report writing can make or break a
prosecutor’s case, and can reflect positively or negatively on the author. In addition, there is an important tutorial on reading body language. A small percentage of subjects will attack an officer. This will help officers determine the level of threat
CAMPUS FIRE SAFETY
Fire Safety on campus remains a number one safety priority. However, students are killed each year in fires on campus. What is the role of the campus police officer in both
preventing fires and helping fight them if and when they occur? This is a potentially

vital for street cops who may need a refresher in the basics of safe foot pursuits. It’s also
a tremendous video presentation for recruits and young officers fresh from academy
training. Each year officers are murdered because they get complacent during foot
pursuits or simply neglect some of the basics. After watching this video, they will
definitely be on their toes again!
BODY LANGUAGE
This is a crucial addition to your video library. We feel confident it can help save officers
from serious injury and even death. Subjects who are potentially violent almost
invariably display various physical “signs” that they are volatile. However, many cops
simply have never been taught or shown these simple physical displays of anxiety or
anger. In this fast-paced roll call video, officers will go away with a powerful awareness
that subjects’ body language is something all cops must carefully observe.
FELONY VEHICLE STOPS

RESPONSE TO FELONIES IN PROGRESS
This is another program that police departments have requested we produce, and we
listened! Often, officers become complacent or lackadaisical responding to alarms. Even
when an alarm may be a good one, complacent cops can go barreling into a potentially
explosive scene. This 7 minute presentation will hit home for all street officers by
powerfully showing the right way to respond to felonies in progress and just how
dangerous it can be when you respond using poor tactics.

officers from the Orange County (FL) Sheriff's Department. You'll see excellent
demonstrations of the safest approaches for officers who have stopped vehicles with
heavily-tinted windows. Officers will learn the very best tactics for keeping subjects off-balance and uncertain about officers' presence and positioning. Also, they'll learn exactly
where to position themselves most strategically for the safest possible interaction with
subjects in tinted windows. An invaluable addition to an agency's video library.
PURSUIT INTERVENTION TECHNIQUES (P.I.T)
If your department is considering development of the Pursuit Intervention Technique

from two of the nation's finest E.V.O.C. schools, San Bernardino( CA) Sheriff's and
Fairfax County (VA).
PROPER HANDCUFFING TECHNIQUE
As any peace officer knows, improper and unsafe handcuffing of subjects can fatal. In
recent years, subjects have wiggled free of handcuffs, have accessed handcuff keys, etc. to ultimately end up fatally shooting law enforcement officers. This roll call video, we
believe, will be an indispensable addition to any agency's video library. It features police
experts taking you step-by-step on the right way to cuff subjects. You'll want to use this
program time and again not only for green recruits but also veteran street cops who may
occasionally get lax and complacent.
THE STANDING MODIFIED SEARCH
Police expert Tony Kirkbright of the Antioch, California Police Department, is featured
in this roll call video walking you through a perfectly executed ‘standing modified
search.’ This is another critical element for officers to learn and, in many cases, re-learn.
Not only will Tony show officers the most tactically safe approach to searching of
subjects but also the best, most thorough means an officer can pat down a subject. Add
this to your shopping list of videos from IN THE LINE OF DUTY. It'll be a tremendous
video resource for many years to come.
HOW BAD GUYS GET OVER ON COPS--PARTS 1 & 2 (BOTH PROGRAMS ARE 5-7 MINS. IN LENGTH)
Defensive Tactics Expert Sgt. Mike Muxo of the St. Louis Metropolitan PD explains and
shows several of the tactics bad guys utilize to "get over on the cops" in this two-part roll
call special. It'll amaze even veteran street officers the lengths to which the bad guys will
go to try to scam or "blindside" the police. Each one of the tips in these two roll call
videos could someday be a lifesaver for officers. We strongly recommend you add this to
your video checklist.
PROTECTIVE VESTS
This is more than a practical demonstration on purchasing the very best, most
comfortable and safest protective body armor. It's an absolutely vital practical
demonstration! Of all an officer's or a department's choices, there isn't much that is more crucial for officer safety than the selection of the right protective body armor; the armor that gives the street cop the best chance of surviving gunfire. Tony Kirkbright of the
Antioch (CA) Police Department demonstrates just how vital an officer's body armor
selection is. You'll want each officer in your department to view this roll call video more than once.
WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW BEFORE BUYING HOLSTERS
In one of the most graphic demonstrations ever made, the St. Louis Police Department
literally rips apart holsters before your very eyes! It's their way of determining which
holsters last the longest under the most extreme conditions. If you or one of your officers
is attacked, which holster do YOU believe would stand up to an assailant's effort to wrest
free a gun? See what St. Louis determined after putting these holsters from every major
manufacturer through their very grueling paces. Also, the Georgia State Patrol
demonstrates very graphically why THEY opted for a system-wide change in the holsters
they had been wearing. Take a good look for yourself. It's an eye-opener that will provide
you vital insight into one of an agency's very crucial purchasing decisions.
2 MINUTE WARNING PROGRAMS
Here is a series of short scenarios that are ideal for roll call training. These are appropriately titled 'Two Minute Warnings,' because that's exactly how long they last. Just---two minutes. Each individual program presents the kind of scenario any patrol officer may encounter at any time. Using real video and expert law enforcement technical analysis, all topics include scenarios that street cops face every day and night. Officers are given a series of options as to what they would do under the described conditions. The proper course of action has been determined by a panel of experts compiled for this purpose. These Two Minute Warnings are short and punchy, and provide not only an excellent training opportunity before officers hit the streets, but also help reduce complacency by effectively increasing officers’ level of awareness.
