10 TOPIC NOTES 2.12 Liability Considerations Avoid conclusionary statements such as, “I used reasonable force to effect the arrest.” Use concrete, precise descriptions of the confrontation and the Force Options used. Include all Officer/Subject Factors and Special Circumstances involved in the confrontation. These pieces of information will not only aid a conviction in criminal court, but will also help in defending the officer’s actions should a civil suit develop as a result of the confrontation. Short, generic descriptions of a confrontation may cause a future reader of the report to mistakenly believe something is being hidden. 2.13 Use of Force Report In an effort to improve the reports written by officers involved in confrontations, Armament Systems and Procedures makes available, without charge to the law enforcement community, the Use of Force Report decal.
11 TOPIC NOTES SECTION 3: TECHNICAL CHARACTERISTICS OF THE ASP BATON 3.01 Overview The concept of an “expandable” baton originated in the Orient. Early models suffered from poor design and construction methods. The first American baton of this type, the Titan Taper, received limited exposure in the 1960s. However, the method of construction as well as the durability of the unit were not compatible with long term police use. The ASP Tactical Baton is a defensive, police impact weapon designed to be inconspicuous, yet highly effective in an operational setting. The concealable nature of the baton makes it an ideal intermediate weapon for the plainclothes or undercover law enforcement officer. The ASP Tactical Baton also provides the uniform officer with quick access to an impact weapon which is always carried. The ASP Baton has two telescoping shafts which lock into place with a full extension of the arm. This opening of the baton also presents a clear statement to a potential assailant. It is a final warning prior to the application of force by an officer. The ASP Baton is available in a variety of Locking Systems, Lengths, Grips and Shafts to meet specific needs. (See Appendix A) All models are characterized by an absence of sharp edges which might abrade clothing or cut an assailant. ASP Batons are exceptionally strong with few parts to fail or wear out. Friction Loc expandables have 10 parts; LeverLoc models have 15 parts. 3.02 Components (See Overheads B and C) The ASP Tactical Baton is composed of the following parts: 1. Cap 2. Retention Assembly 3. Cap O-Ring 4. Handle 5. Grip 6. Middle Shaft 7. End Shaft 8. Tip
