This crime scene management program has been designed for patrol officers, detectives or
recently-assigned evidence technicians and will review how to avoid crime scene
contamination and discuss how to increase evidence potential from the scene.
Officers will be guided through a seven-step crime scene protocol to be used at all crimes
scenes. Case studies will be used to inform officers how to use testimonial, circumstantial
and physical evidence to strengthen their cases. Evidence recognition, handling, packaging
and submission will be demonstrated, and officers will complete practical exercises in those
areas.
This course will be taught by: Sgt. Heather Poerio, State Police Crime Scene Services
Command.
Good officers recognize non-verbal "tells" given off during encounters and are able to
consistently gain advantage by using this street sense. While safety protocols must always be
followed during street encounters, many other officers are oftentimes unaware of how the
language and gestures they use can shut down communication with those they encounter.
This program will provide officers, particularly those involved in community-based policing
initiatives, with methods for improving their street interviewing skills and establishing
trustworthy rapport
and dialogue with those they meet and serve. Additionally, students will examine
communication cues that can be indicative of potential threats, deceitful statements, or
suspicious explanations.
The instructors for this class are Patrick J. Solar, Ph.D. and Chief of the Genoa Police
Department and James Zalud, communications consultant.
This course will be taught by: Chief Patrick Solar, Sycamore Police Department (Retired);
and Mr. James Zalud, Communications Consultant.
