Force used to quell out-of-control demonstrations or detain unruly
individuals can result in litigation and bad press for law
enforcement agencies. Injury or loss of life can best be avoided if
agencies have accurate knowledge and proper training in less lethal
options. Risk Management of Less Lethal Options: Evaluation,
Deployment, Aftermath, and Forensics discusses how lessons learned
from major disturbances have helped law enforcement professionals
develop concepts and techniques that police departments can apply
to increase successful outcomes, manage risk, and limit liability.
The methods presented in this book were developed over a decade of
testing, training, evaluating, deploying, analyzing, and testifying
related to the use of these tools. Topics include: The evolution of
the less lethal paradigm through the analysis of the outcomes of
major incidents Categories of less lethal options-including impact,
chemical, electrical, and distraction Riot-control agents (RCAs),
which produce rapid sensory irritation or disabling physical
effects that disappear within a short time Less lethal impact
munitions (LLIMs) that deliver blunt trauma, including the study of
their capabilities and limitations Important factors for developing
a successful less lethal training program Challenges caused by
arrest-related death, in-custody death, and Excited Delirium
Syndrome (ExDs) The use and forensic analysis of conducted
electrical weapons (CEWs)/Tasers Effective post-event report
writing, evidence collection, and court preparation Risk management
of less lethal options requires a complex, multi-tiered approach.
This volume provides law enforcement professionals with guidelines
to manage risk from the street to the courtroom when utilizing less
lethal options to subdue offenders. Praise for the Book: This is an
