Stop the Killing offers insight into what each of us can do to end
the active shooter crisis plaguing America. Written by the former
head of the FBI's active shooter program, Katherine Schweit, shares
an insider look at what we've learned, and failed to learn, about
protecting our businesses, houses of worship, and schools. The book
demystifies the language around active shooters, mass killings,
threat assessment teams, and more. Never gathered before into one
place, readers gain access to evidence-based research and the most
up-to-date information as they travel step-by-step through shooting
prevention efforts and shooting aftermaths. Beginning with an
understanding of how to spot potential shooters, readers learn the
many ways to prevent shootings and the role threat assessment teams
play. Threat assessment experts provide insight on what kind of
information they need, and how they use it to intercept a person on
a pathway to violence. The book guides readers through the process
of assessing building security weaknesses and shows how to find
vulnerabilities in people, programs, and policies. Packed with
practical advice for training every age, from preschoolers, to
elementary school children, to adults, the book also includes the
author's own teaching outline on how to train people to run, hide,
fight. The book gathers together examples to help build
individualized emergency operations plans and shows how to tap vast
government resources to cover costs to your office and employees,
districts and students, and survivors and victim's families. Hear
sober advice gathered from those who have survived and responded to
shootings at Columbine High School, Virginia Tech, Sandy Hook
Elementary School, the Aurora theater, Los Angeles International
Airport, and more. Their common theme is that it can happen
anywhere and has. All the more reason to accept that as each of us
better understand what happens and how to prevent it, we can be the
ones to stop the killing.
