Critical Incident Training: Officer Involved Shootings

WHEN: April 12, 2010 8AM-4PM

WHERE: The Columbus Police Training Academy 1000 North Hague Avenue Columbus, Ohio 43204

COST: $25, Free if attending: Criminal Investigations of Officer Involved Shootings *This seminar is designed for all Law Enforcement personnel as well as other

professionals within the Legal System

Course Overview:

The purpose of this Critical Incident Response course is to provide attendees with a basic

investigative model that is applicable to all officers involved shooting incidents, regardless of the size of their agencies. Police officer involved shootings are quite unique and vastly different from any other type of criminal investigation. Arguably there is no single event that can impact a police agency more than a police officer involved shooting incident. The criticism and intense scrutiny generated by the media, community activists, the general public, and the criminal justice system itself, can be enormous.

With some foresight, Columbus Division of Police homicide detectives formed a Critical Incident Response Team (CIRT) in the mid-90 to offset a growing criminal justice dilemma. Violent criminal conduct escalated and the need for police officers to use deadly force became inevitable. Columbus Division of Police provided investigators and agency administrators with a model policy and investigative protocol that enable CPD to conduct an effective investigation after a high-profile incident that attracts great public attention. The CPD CIRT team mission statement reads “to ensure a standardized and consistent investigation of all police-involved shootings, in-custody deaths as ordered by the Crimes against Persons Bureau Commander and to complete these investigations in an efficient and timely manner”.

The clarity of theColumbus Division of Police policies ensures the conduct of a thorough, unbiased, and totally documented investigation and shows an established policy that guarantees uniform treatment of all parties involved in use-of-deadly force incidents and in-custody death cases.

The purpose of this one day seminar is to provide officers, supervisors, prosecutors and

investigators in the proper response of a critical incident in their agencies and communities. The focus of the CIRT team is to provide a structured model in which their agency can employ. With
