What Policy Required,
What Was Actually Done
Every agency writes down how policing is supposed to happen: policies, procedures, general orders, and the training built on them. The analysis lays that paper next to the record of the incident and documents, directive by directive, where practice departed from procedure.
Attorney and law-firm inquiries only
What this covers.
Within this engagement
- Agency policy and general-order analysis
- Written procedures measured against actual practice
- Generally accepted police practices and national standards
- Policy gaps, conflicts and outdated directives
- Training built on policy, and whether it was applied
- Supervisory enforcement of policy and procedure
The agency's policy manual and general orders, the training records built on them, body-worn video and reports of the incident, and any administrative review, compared directive by directive against generally accepted police practices and national standards on the totality of the circumstances.
