PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE

Greetings –I would like to begin by thanking the membership of FBI-LEEDA for giving me the op-portunity and the privilege to serve as your President. Through this experience I have grown as a law enforcement professional. I have become acquainted with numerous government and private sector offi cials exposing me to leadership and management practices that I would not have otherwise seen. This experience has enhanced my ap-preciation for great work being done by law enforcement professionals in this country. It has also deepened my understanding of just how important local, county and state law enforcement is to the security of our country.

This brings me to the fi rst point of this message, “Get Involved in FBI-LEEDA.” The FBI-LEEDA Association is comprised of 5000 members (and growing) that share a com-mon desire to develop the leadership capacity of our profession; share best practices with our peers; and the ex-pansion of leadership and management training through public and private partnerships. That is our purpose as an Association. So how can we make this happen? “Get Involved.” There are a number of ways you can be active in our Association:

• Attend and participate in the Annual Executive Training Conference April 6-8, 2009 in Tampa Flori-da. Attend and help us reach our goal to grow member participation at the annual conference to at least 400 delegates. Each year a member of the Executive Board attends each of the major Law Enforcement confer-ences. I can say without hesitation that our conference is the best conference in the country. As an attendee at our conference this year you will receive outstanding training, networking opportunities, great entertainment and relaxation venues along with breakfast, lunch and several dinners to include the annual banquet. All of this for a $225 registration. The Tampa Marriott Water-side is a terrifi c facility and the room rate is $133. Other major training conferences could cost between $250 and $300 for registration, another $300 per night for rooms, and you would have to pay for your banquet ticket and most of your other meals. Our conference is a great deal and we are all in one facility, enhancing the training and networking.

• Become a leader in our Association and run for the Executive Board, Sergeant at Arms position. If you are a sitting Chief or Sheriff and plan to continue in this role for another six years, help us lead this great association and run for Sergeant At Arms. The expe-riences you will gain from six years on the Executive Board are immeasurable. Now that you are inspired to run, please have your letter of intent in to FBI-LEEDA by March 10, 2009. Better yet, go ahead and send it in today!

FBI–LEEDA

• Become a Regional Representative. Due to the growth of FBI-LEEDA and the expanding number of training services we provide we need help. As a Re-gional Representative, you will be the Association’s “boots on the ground” in your area of the country for FBI-LEEDA Training and initiatives.

As you can see, getting involved in FBI-LEEDA is easy. It is also fun, rewarding and has signifi cant purpose. I encourage and applaud your increased participation in FBI-LEEDA, the best law enforcement association in the country.

I cannot end a message without talking about the “Under the Vest” program. In this issue we have pro-vided our third health bulletin. This one is a little dif-ferent. When I was a young police offi cer no one in my department coached me on how to stay fi nancially fi t. Yet each year I witnessed offi cers losing their jobs or spouses because of poor fi nancial decisions. This year, because of the struggling economy, I noticed increased stress on the families and employees in my department. In response we brought in a Financial Planning group that gave all of our employees training on basic fi nanc-es, family budgeting and how to start saving for the fu-ture. The employees have found the fi nancial training helpful and timely. Please consider using the “Under the Vest” fi nancial health bulletin in your department.

In closing, have a wonderful holiday season and we look forward to seeing you at our Annual Executive Training Conference.

— Chief Jon R. Zumalt, President


What’s Going On Under the Vest?

Financial FitnessThe current fi nancial crisis is making us “TIGHTEN OUR BELTS” and look deeper into our own fi nancial fi tness. We work diligently to keep our bodies healthy, but are we on a good fi tness program for our personal fi nances? One aspect of fi nancial fi tness is practicing sound home budgeting principals and being aware of your current fi nancial status by:

• Understanding your benefi ts • Getting a handle on your debt

• Learning how to maximize your opportunities for fi nancial success

Bulletproof Your Financial FutureEMPOWER yourself to take control of where and how you spend your money and develop a plan for your fi nances. Start with baby steps to get an overview of where you are standing at present then speed walk into a more secure fi nancial future. Let’s get started with our fi rst steps and continue heading towards a leaner fi nancial future.

Baby Step 1 — Take a net worth snapshot of your personal fi nancial inventory.

Assets <less> Liabilities = Your Net Worth

ASSETS – Income from various sources (i.e. bonds, CD/money market, checking/savings, real estate/residence)

LIABILITIES – Items of cost to you (i.e. car loans, credit cards, loan payments, mortgage, utilities, home mainte-nance/improvements)

Baby Step 2 — Seek assistance with a fi nancial group or advisor to get you started with debt management.

What can you cut back on? Hmm, think about it.

ITEM COST ANNUAL COST

Lunch $6.00 5x wk

$1,560 $59,644

Dinner for two (dining out)

$5,200 $291,214

(These amounts are assumed to be invested annually at 9% rate of return compounded annually for 20 years.)

Responsibility drives our belief that we have an obligation to ourselves and our family for a secure fi nancial future. It is not about taking the fun out of life but balancing the desire to the need and security of planning to enjoy life later in years.

FBI Academy Update The FBI Academy, led by Assistant Director Brian D. Lamkin, continues to be a busy location as it seeks to achieve its three-pronged mission:

• To lead and inspire through excellence in training and research• The education and development of the criminal justice community; and• To infl uence change and forge partnerships that ensure the safety and security of the citizens of the United

States and around the world. While New Agents, Intelligence Analysts, and National Academy students occupy most of the available space, reno-vations and updates to the facilities promise a bright future for the Academy.

The LEEDS Program at the FBI Academy continues to thrive. The LEEDS team, consisting of Mark D’Amico, Kevin Crawford, and Pam Merryman, did a great job with the recently completed LEEDS sessions 59 and 60, which were held in Fredericksburg, Virginia. Preparations are currently underway for LEEDS 61, which will be held on Janu-ary 18-30, 2009. Congratulations and thank you to the Team. Keep up the great work!

The National Executive Institute team of Mike McAuliffe and Deb Southard is planning the Thirty Second Session of NEI, which will begin in March 2009. Due to space constraints, NEI XXXII will be held off-site from the Academy.

The Leadership in Counterterrorism (LinCT) program began its sixth iteration in Los Angeles on November 9, 2008. The FBI Team for this mostly international program consists of Bill McCormack and Andrea Brown, with the support and talent of Mark D’Amico.

October 30, 2008, was a very exciting day for a graduating class of New Agents. Not only did the class receive their credentials to begin their careers, but the graduation ceremony was highlighted by the attendance of President George W. Bush and Attorney General Michael B. Mukasey.

Finally, thank you to Jon Zumalt, Tom Stone, and FBI-LEEDA for a successful and well attended Breakfast Meet-ing which kicked off the 2008 IACP Conference in San Diego.

The Reliable Source Executive Director’s Report

Plans are being fi nalized for our 18th Annual Executive Training Conference to be held at the Tampa Waterside Marriott, April 6–8, 2008. We will have early on-site registration Sunday afternoon,

April 5, followed by an evening recep-tion. The Executive Board has orga-

nized an excellent training schedule throughout the conference to deal with contemporary issues facing each of you as law enforcement leaders. The Executive Board re-

alizes that agencies are faced with fi nancial challenges because of cur-

rent budget constraints. Registra-tion fees for the conference have remained constant for the past few years and will not be increased

for 2009.

To accommodate the growth of FBI – LEEDA, the offi ce relocated to Malvern, Pennsylvania on October 6, 2008, and additional staff was added.

As you will see from the schedule of training opportunities outlined in this issue of the Insight-er, 2009 will be a benchmark year for our execu-tive training programs. In addition to the Com-

mand Institute®, Supervisor Leadership Institute®, Execu-tive Survival: Policing in the 21st Century®, and Managing and Conducting Internal Af-fairs Investigations, we are fi elding numerous requests for summits: Identity Theft, Heavy Equipment, and Methods of Entry – Defensive and Offensive Strategies.

The General Membership Meeting and Breakfast was held in San Diego on November 9 in conjunction with the IACP Conference. The event was a great suc-cess with more than 160 members and guests in at-tendance.

Membership renewal invoices were mailed on December 1. Your support of FBI – LEEDA and partici-pation are a major factor in the success and growth of your Association. We appreciate your continued sup-port.

Please contact the FBI – LEEDA offi ce if there is any-thing we can do to assist you and your colleagues.

Safe Advice vs. Legal AdvocacyIgnore that advice ... sometimes! – by Keith D. Bushey

Does your department have the wrong person perma-nently assigned to the wrong position as a result of legal advice that you now question? If so, you are in good com-pany. To one extent or another, most agencies are bur-dened with a similar festering situation that may not have truly been necessary.

Most of us have come to both depend upon and covet the advice that we receive from our legal counsel. Given the complexities of today’s workplace, and the many laws that govern personnel practices, it is a careless individual who does not seek out the very best advice possible on the myriad of issues facing today’s law enforcement ad-ministrator. With that in mind, however, it is imperative to recognize the limitations, as well as the strengths, that are occasionally demonstrated by our legal advisors, and the sometimes-catastrophic organizational consequences of safe advice versus legal advocacy.

It can be argued, with some degree of merit, that our real challenges lie not in dealing with crime and public safety issues, but rather in managing the complex and often con-tradictory laws that affect the workplace! Beyond the le-gitimate and worthy situations, there are unfortunately no shortage of instances where problem employees take full advantage of the American Disabilities Act, worker’s com-pensation rules, anti-discrimination laws and rules, and other types of state and federal programs and statutes to obtain questionable benefi ts and/or accommodations. Given the fact that most of these programs and statutes favor the applicant, the mere fi ling of a claim or complaint often places the employer in a defensive position; the need for proactive legal advocacy has never been greater than it is today.

What are some of the most common consequences of safe advice? The problem employee who, based upon medical advice, is accommodated in a position other than which the individual was hired for; both reducing that per-son’s value to the agency and denying other employees an assignment to the position. The elimination of deroga-tory information from a problem employee’s personnel fi le, based upon a grievance; further empowering a troublemak-er and sending out a message of administrative impotence to others in the workforce. The problem employee who

feigns or exaggerates a medical condition and receives undeserved benefi ts, but who is not subjected to discipline and/or prosecution; a troublesome and often conspicuous situation that infuriates the good employees and serves as an unfortunate incentive for additional fraud and dishon-esty. The promotion of a less qualifi ed individual based upon a negotiated settlement, or threatened civil litigation, where gender and/or ethnicity is alleged to be the reason why the individual was not initially selected for promotion; a situation that can be devastating to the overall workforce and make a mockery of the merit system. The individual hired as a law enforcement offi cer who, although failing a portion of the selection process, prevailed based upon a civil service appeal; a not uncommon situation found in some of our problem employees. While many situations such as these are based upon absolute legal necessity, there are also many similar situations which are a result of safe legal advice, and which may not have been neces-sary had true legal advocacy been exercised.

In each of the situations described previously, the saf-est course of action was the one provided. It is safe and simple to recommend accommodation based upon a re-ported medical condition; to resolve a grievance by the elimination of a contested comment in an evaluation re-port; to fail to deal decisively with an employee engaged in medical fraud because of the complexities involved; or to resolve civil litigation by the hiring or promotion of a plaintiff. There are, however, often other factors, which if considered and carefully articulated, may have mitigated an/or eliminated the need for the course of action that was provided in each of the examples. Our legal advi-sors must possess the energy and professional qualities to explore courses of action beyond the provision of safe advice! The potential long-term negative consequences to the organization, in situations such as those described, demand nothing less. The role of the attorney ends when the advice is provided; the consequences of that advice can last for a long time.

Legal advocacy goes beyond research and advice. It also involves education and oversight to help key person-nel recognize what measures need to be taken, and how those measures need to be documented, to increase the likelihood that the department will prevail in the resolution

often-troublesome situations. It should come as no surprise that counsel for the problem employee, will do everything possible to bolster the employee’s case, and either minimize and/or attempt to have excluded evidence that supports your agency. Legal advocacy should result in situations where proactive and appropriate measures are taken, and those measures – as well as the honorable intentions of the agency – are admitted and found compelling in administra-tive hearings and/or courts of law.

Beyond the isolated consequences of questionable safe advice, the cumulative consequences of months and years of questionable safe advice can absolutely result in varying degrees of real and discernable organizational paralysis. Every accommodation, to some extent, results in a loss of latitude for at least one person and one assignment, which if multiplied in a number of instances results in a percentage of the organization over which the executive has a diminished ability to infl uence. As sad as it may be, it is an absolute reality that accommodations have a tendency towards s a ripple effect, and almost always result in similar demands by other employees. As an example, one major law enforce-ment agency, at one time, had accommodated so many dis-patchers in positions outside of the communications center, that police offi cers had to be taken off the streets and as-signed to the communications center in order to ensure that emergency calls were answered!

True legal advocacy is a combination of two factors: an attorney who truly recognizes and cares about the long-term consequences of legal advice, and a partnership between that attorney and the law enforcement executive staff. I wish I could say that all of the attorneys who support our agencies possess the energy and determination to be solid partners and strong legal advocates in helping us achieve maximum fl exibility in the management of our departments; unfortu-nately, such is not always the case. The legal profession is not unlike other professions, where some persons are more qualifi ed than others, and where workloads, energy levels, personal agendas, and attitudes are sometimes factors in the work product. All of these factors infl uence the quality of the legal advice that we receive.

Most of us can look back at times in our careers where we, without seriously questioning what we were being told, acted upon legal advice which in hindsight turned out to be the wrong thing to do. Today, the wise executive is one who is not reluctant to question potentially troubling advice, to seek second opinions, and instead of asking counsel what to do is more likely to ask the legal advisor how to achieve the objec-tives of the law enforcement executive. We must also realize that our attorneys are staff advisors and not decision-mak-ers, and that the ultimate course of action is something to be decided by the executive based on a variety of factors.

Before being too critical of our staff attorneys whose advice tends to be on the safe and conservative side, it is wise to engage in some self-refl ection. We must ask ourselves if we have done our job in developing and mentoring our legal advisors so as to ensure that there is no misunder-standing as to the role that we expect them to perform. Our legal advisors are just like the rest of us; they want to do a good job and to be responsive to our needs. Make it clear – and demonstrate through your behavior – that you covet the role that they play, expect them to be proactive in helping you fi nd solutions to challenging situations, and that, without eroding your role in having the fi nal say, you truly want them to be your partner in moving the organiza-tion in a direction consistent with your vision.

We as law enforcement executives often do not have all the answers to the challenges we face. We brainstorm, do research, reach out to colleagues and professional organi-zations, and often put a lot of effort in deciding on course of actions. Our staff attorneys should do no less in helping us to determine the best course of action for the legal is-sues that arise.

Should we as executives occasionally reject the advice that we are given? Absolutely! Legal issues are just like other issues; we evaluate the pros and cons, consider what we have to gain and what we have to lose, and choose the course of action that is best for the organization. Although we need to avoid taking foolish and unnecessary risks, sometimes what we have to gain far outweighs what we run the risk of losing. Obviously, we lessen the potential adverse consequences by doing our homework, looking at all sides of the issue, clearly identifying the additional and mitigating factors, and by clearly understanding the multiple consequences of our potential decisions before embarking on a course of action.

Many other persons, including our legal advisors, play a critical role in much of what we do, but do not bear the ultimate burden of managing our work forces, or dealing with the sometimes catastrophic consequences of bad decisions and poor advice. Give yourself and your organi-zation every possible advantage, and develop your staff in a way that is likely to ensure that is the case. Developing your legal advisors in a manner consistent with your vision, and making it clear – through words and actions – that you desire proactive legal advocacy versus safe decisions is a “must do” for every law enforcement executive.

Concerns of Police Survivors – by Chief Paul F. Armitage, Ret.

I imagine that, similar to me, over the years you have received thousands of solicitations in the mail looking for money for what appeared to be a good cause. And I suspect that a good number of you raised by WW II-era parents learned from them the virtue of donating to those in need. So we choose those organizations that are supporting a cause that is near and dear to our hearts. Thus, twenty-fi ve years ago when I received a solicitation from Concerns of Police Survivors (C.O.P.S.) I started a practice of routinely sending my small donations to an organization that cared for the emotional needs of families and individuals who were affected by the loss of a police offi cer who is the vic-tim of a line-of-duty death. And then never gave the organization a second thought. By then I had been a police offi cer for fourteen or so years and a line-of-duty death was something that happened to other agencies, somewhere else, not mine.

Then, on the afternoon of July 10, 1997, it happened to us. Ed Couture, a cop with whom I had bunked at one time in our “Os-car and Felix” type apartment, was direct-ing traffi c on Route 62 in Middleton when a driver suffered an ill turn, and struck and killed my friend.

In the hours, days, and months that passed after that tragic afternoon, I learned what my donation dollars through the years had contributed to. I gave to an organiza-tion that has as its mission to “rebuild shat-tered lives.”

In 1984 the fi rst ever National Police Sur-vivors’ Seminar took place in Washington, D.C., during Police Memorial Week. These “grief seminars” represented the fi rst time survivors, 110 of them, had the opportunity to get together and learn from each other the ways they had dealt with their line-of-duty loss, and learned ways to cope, get on with their lives, and survive. This was the birth of Concerns of Police Survivors. The organization has been headed by Executive Director Suzanne Sawyer since its inception and has had a positive affect on over 15,000 families in the past twenty-fi ve years.

Hours after Ed Couture’s death on that hot July day, various members of the Massachusetts Chapter of

Concerns of Police Survivors started appearing at the Couture residence to show their support for his wife and two young daughters. Women who had also suffered the loss of their police offi cer husband contacted Mrs. Couture and offered their words of comfort and sup-port. Police offi cers who had previously lost a brother or sister to a line-of-duty death arrived to support my brother offi cers and me. We were not alone.

The following May, with heavy hearts and our minds laden with lots of advice from the members of MA C.O.P.S., a large contingent of Middleton police offi -cers and their families headed to Washington, D.C., for our fi rst Police Memorial Week. Mrs. Couture and her extended family had the opportunity to participate in grief management sessions, as did Ed’s fellow offi cers. We were bused to Judiciary Square to the National Law Enforcement Memorial where, for the fi rst time, we saw Edward Couture’s name etched for posterity

and heard his name called along with more than one hundred other brave offi cers who went down that year. With tears in our eyes we saw the “thin blue line” beam across the dark Washington sky. And we felt the warmth of thousands of others who had come before us and now returned yearly to show respect for those lost and those who remain. On Peace Offi cers’ Memorial Day, we went to the United States Capitol where, once again, we heard the names of the offi -cers who fell that year and again heard Ed’s name, Sergeant Edward M. Couture, Mid-dleton Massachusetts Police Department.

At night, during that week, we interacted at the various hotels with our brothers and sisters who had experienced a similar loss that year and in previous years. We met the survivors, the husbands, wives, children, mothers, fathers, siblings and co-workers of the fallen offi cers. And we learned that

we were not alone. C.O.P.S. had designated this place and time for us to begin to heal, to begin to rebuild our shattered lives.

While the adults spent time with each other, there were also activities for the children. Boys and girls who perhaps had not been away from their surviving parent since the tragic loss of Dad or Mum, boarded buses with the C.O.P.S. KIDS mentors and trekked off to the

Marine Base at Quantico to visit the FBI Academy. And probably for the fi rst time, these children have an opportu-nity to talk about their respective losses with others who knew only too well what each child was experiencing. On a second day those same children gathered in the morning for yet another trip with the C.O.P.S. KIDS mentors. The difference this morning was that we now had several hundred children eager to start the day with their new friends and they all seemed to have a newfound positive outlook on life. This trip took them to the Fairfax Virginia Police Academy where the children again had the opportunity to break up into groups of between six and ten children, along with mentors and therapists, to spend the day talking and working through the issues that come from being the sur-viving child of a deceased hero.

By the time we left Washington, D.C., that week I knew that I had to do something that could give back to C.O.P.S. for the smiles and enthusiasm I could see on the faces of Sgt. Couture’s children. I wanted to do something in Ed’s name that could be positive. I wanted to do something that could give meaning to this tragic loss. So I trained to become a C.O.P.S KIDS mentor. Every May since then I have returned with other law enforcement offi cers to help the surviving children and families of those lost that year.

This past year, I offered my name as a candidate for the position of Northeast Trustee for Concerns of Police Sur-vivors. Since May, I have served as the Trustee for the States of Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Maine, Vermont, Rhode Island, Connecticut, New York and New Jersey. My responsibilities include watching over survivors from previous years, assisting the local chapters, and assisting the agencies and survivors when an offi cer dies in the line of duty. Responsibilities that I am honored to perform.

But I have given only on a minute portion of the support services that C.O.P.S. offers. Concerns of Police Survivors, Inc. wants every agency to be prepared to handle the trauma of law enforcement death. We offer training sessions that can be as brief as a four-hour in-service training or as in-depth as a three-day session called “The Traumas of Law Enforcement”. No registration fees are charged for law enforcement-oriented participants at C.O.P.S. training sessions that were funded by the Bureau of Justice Assistance until last year. In 2008 and again in 2009, Concerns of Police Survivors must now raise the $90,000 for the seven 3-day sessions of “The Traumas of Law Enforcement” that will be held during January, February and March of 2009.

C.O.P.S.’ four-hour training covers such topics as: • Myths vs. facts about coping with the loss of a law enforce-

ment offi cer• Support issues for the surviving family, the agency, agency

personnel and their families• Being prepared with General Orders for line-of-duty death• Individual offi cer/family needs in a high-risk profession • Regular updating of family information and benefi ciary cards• Discussion of state/local benefi ts• Organizing fi nancial matters• Offi cer safety issues• Symptoms of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder• Psychological/critical incident stress debriefi ng teams to

address the needs of effected co-workers and co-workers’ families

• Spouse seminars and employee assistance programs

The Survivors’ Perspective:Geared toward offi cers who deal with the survi-vors, C.O.P.S.’ all-day session includes the above topics as well as: • Death notifi cation: injury vs. critical injury vs. death• Assisting the family at the hospital• Support for the family during the wake and funeral • Cultural differences that infl uence law enforcement

funerals• Providing information and assistance on benefi ts to the

surviving family• Continued follow-up with the family• Department support for the surviving family awaiting

trial• National Police Week activities• Individual offi cer/family issues the agency should

address

I’m sure that there are readers who have benefi ted from the training “Traumas of a Law Enforcement.” These three-day sessions include all the above topics as well as: Police victimization, Research fi ndings from agencies and survivors, Police suicide, Disabled offi cers, The stages of grieving, Male grief vs. female grief, The trauma of losing a co-worker, The role of CISD, Diffusing and debriefi ng, Support programs/organizations.

These trainings will be held in or near Houston, TX; Minneapolis, MN; Hartford, CT; Baltimore, MD; Atlanta, GA; Indianapolis, IN; Boise, ID; and Denver, CO. At these classes offi cers have the opportunity to learn how to prepare for the traumatic loss of a close co-worker and learn what to do when such a tragedy strikes. These offi cers learn what we already know, that every two-and-one-half days a law enforcement offi cer will go down, as the result of a line of duty death.


What else does C.O.P.S. do? If you have ever been assigned the task of applying for line-of-duty death benefi ts for one of your families, you are aware that it makes your annual tax preparation look like child’s play. C.O.P.S. has developed a database for line-of-duty death benefi ts for every state in the union. Fur-ther, through the Department of Justice, C.O.P.S. has personnel trained to assist agencies with the extremely cumbersome paperwork required by the Public Safety Offi cer Benefi t Program when fi ling a claim for the Fed-eral death benefi t available to surviving families of line-of-duty death.

In addition to the National Police Survivors’ Con-ference held each May during National Police Week, C.O.P.S. programs for survivors include scholarships, peer-support at the national, state, and local levels, “C.O.P.S. Kids” counseling reimbursement program, the “C.O.P.S. Kids” Summer Camp, “C.O.P.S. Teens” Outward Bound® experience for young adults, special retreats for spouses, parents, siblings, adult children, and in-laws, trial and parole support, and other assis-tance programs.

In the News RedFlex Goes Green

Friends and colleagues,

We were asked to support a photo-op in front of the State of Arizona Capital Building in Phoenix.

Below is one of the images, which shows our Arizona Department of Public Safety fl eet of 40 of the most tech-nologically advanced, hybrid mobile speed enforcement systems in the world and the Redfl ex dedicated mobile speed program support staff.

Each of these units can be used for bi-directional en-forcement, infrared imaging options, full motion video and high resolution still images; GPS and real-time video mon-itoring; and since it is AZ (driver-onus) each of these vans capture both front and rear violation images!

When I viewed these pictures, I felt compelled to share my excitement with my brothers- and sisters-in-arms in this industry.

This is truly a monumental occasion for all of us.

In addition to the Massachusetts Chapter of Concerns of Police Survivors, which covers Mas-sachusetts, Maine New Hampshire, Connecticut and Rhode Island, there are chapters in most of the other states of the union. All have the same goal: to rebuild shattered lives.

I have given to you only a very brief look into an orga-nization that all police offi cers should support and honor. Our job always carries that unspoken risk that we will not return home at the end of our shift. It is vitally important for the well-being of our families that an organization such as C.O.P.S. exists. I am very proud of having been and continuing to be a member of this very important orga-nization. At the end of the day, when I know that I have helped a spouse, father or mother, sister or brother and most importantly, the child of a fallen offi cer, I know for sure that my friend, Ed Couture, is smiling on me and that family.

Author’s Biography

Paul Armitage has recently retired from the Middleton Police Department after thirty-seven years service, the last ten as its Chief of Police.

In addition to these 40 mobile speed systems, the Redfl ex team will have installed, equipped and supported a total of 100 speed systems, all implemented in under a three month period. Please remember, these fi xed systems are located on Freeways, yes, massive Freeways across the State of Ari-zona; which are some of the most complex installations we have ever supported.

As always, please let me know if you have any questions.

Kind Regards,
