The Kimmell’s had their first interaction with law enforcement with the Montana Yellow Stone County Sheriff’s a few days after the intense search. Also, what aided the Kimmell’s to feel more comfortable was they knew George Jensen back from high school. Before any questions were asked, George asked if, “they would like to have a family member or clergyman to join them?

The author states, “there is a strong impression among law enforcement that community policing somehow removes the bold image and is trying to change them into social workers” ”(Gayadeen, pg.4).

This taser used gun powder to shoot the darts out by the wire connected to the gun. The invention did not go anyway until 1991 when two brothers Rick and Tom Smith worked on the device…

The Field Training Officer (FTO) program has brought the training of police officers a long way. This excellent program controls discrimination, and that it aids in a wider range of hiring issues. When an officer finishes the FTO program, he or she can honestly know that they have been through both thorough and stern training.

Peace-keepers often face life-threatening dangers, which have shaped me into a more…
