Incidents of terrorism and what is happening throughout the U.S. can often be an
overwhelming task for a local jurisdiction and officers to follow. This course will assist line
officers and supervisors prioritize their concerns based on recent law enforcement sensitive
intelligence for this region.
Working members from the Terrorism Liaison Officer Committee (TLOC) and local expert
officers from some of this area’s largest jurisdictions will amplify and then refocus what
officers should be looking for in their own jurisdictions.
While lesson learned in other parts of the country will be discussed, emphasis will be placed
on threat assessments, practical tips, and what to do when something is in progress.
Preparation and planning cycles can be disrupted, intelligence can be gathered, and action
can be taken before incidents such as Mumbai occur.
As one retired intelligence operator reflected, “I was never worried about counterintelligence
agencies catching me in my work. The one I was afraid of was the local cop who
sensed something was out of order and was not afraid to act.”
Topics addressed:
- Examining a history of plot disruptions in the U.S;
- Understanding names, relationships and family connections;
- Ongoing criminal enterprises, money making schemes and other illegal scams;
- Establishing rapport with mainstream Muslims
- Knowing the top recruiting strategies for radicalizing American Muslims
- Explosives, chemicals, biological, and radiological/nuclear indicators and familiarization
- On-line terrorist camps
The Chicago Metro Area is uniquely served by the Joint Terrorism Task Force(J.T.T.F.) and
the Terrorism Liaison Officer Committee, (TLOC) that meets quarterly. This course will be
taught by Mathew Pecoraro, Chicago Police Department, members of the Joint Terrorism
Task Force, and the F.B.I.
This program is designed for officers with less than five years of on the job experience and
will review fundamental writing guidelines and suggestions. This program is also
appropriate for more experienced officers needing to improve their report writing
proficiency. Most importantly, it will prompt officers to re-examine their current writing
standards and the impact these standards have upon follow-up investigations, courtroom
testimony, and civil litigation.
Specific objectives include:
- Examining current writing standards
- Methods to simplify report writing and reading
- Emphasizing the importance of complete records
Participants are required to bring paper, a black non-erasable pen (not felt tip), and blank
copies of their departments' case report forms. These will be handed to the instructor at the
start of the class.
This course will be taught by: Detective Bernard Hogancamp, Homewood Police
Department (Retired).
