In a Time of Crisis

The Police Protective Fund announces a ground-breaking service to assist law enforcement departments during the difficult and emotionaldays following a line-of-duty death.

The “Police Memorial Program” provides law enforcement agencies access to one of the nation’s foremost authorities on police memorialservices, John Cooley — a 30 year police veteran who has coordinated over eighty police memorial services in his career.

This free service ranges from a one-hour telephone consultation to complete, on-sitecoordination of the memorial ceremonies (typically five days). The “Police MemorialProgram” pays Mr. Cooley’s established consultation fee, as well as his travel and lodgingexpenses, from a fund established by the Police Protective Fund.

Experienced Assistance is CrucialThrough this service, the Police Protective Fund brings decades of police memorial planningexperience to those departments that due to size or budget constraints are not equippedto handle the full range of activities and ceremonies a police funeral demands.

“Police officers deal with tragedy every day, but when it is an officer from your ownagency, things becomes extremely personal. It’s hard to remain objective and organized

when you’re grieving,” explains Cooley.

In the midst of crisis, there is much to consider:

· Be careful not to make promises.· Give assurances that everyone’s needs will be considered and, hopefully, met.· Establish the budget before spending any money.· Be cautious how any Trust Fund for the surviving family is worded. There is a difference between a fund for the “Spouse and Children” and“Spouse and Minor Children.” (Adult children are often glad to share thousands of dollars with their minor siblings, usually from a secondmarriage.)· BE ABLE TO SAY “NO!”

All of this occurs simultaneously with the criminal, traffic, or death investigation, as well as during a time of collective shock and grief for theagency. The coordinator of a police memorial service should be as competent as theincident’s lead investigator. Their presence will provide the necessary guidance toinsure a traditionally dignified, respectful, and honorable police funeral.

If you need assistance, please contact John Cooley immediately at (805) 522-4861. For specific details on funeral services – go to www.PoliceFunerals.com

Sgt. John Cooley retired in 2001 after 30 years of service with the LosAngeles Police Department. As the Officer-in-Charge of LAPD’s EmployeeAssistance Unit from 1992 until his retirement, he served as thedepartment’s Funeral Coordinator, among other responsibilities.

A Certified Bereavement Facilitator, Cooley has coordinated over eightypolice memorial services throughout his career.

How did you get involved in planning policefunerals?

I was a police officer for 11 years before I waspromoted to sergeant. One of my assignmentswas to the LAPD Personnel Division, the EmployeeAssistance Unit. We offered health services,psychological counseling, among other things.When the position of funeral coordinator cameup, my Commanding Officer recommended mefor the job. I retired in July 2001 after 30

years with the LA PD.

Are there any special skills that lend themselves to your job?

Well, there are really two things. One - you have to be exceptionallyorganized. Two – you must havegood people ski l ls . Those areessential when we only have four orfive days to plan an event for 3000to 5000 people. There just isn’ttime for committee meetings. Eventslike this require a lot of groundsupport. I typically uti l ize theexperience of traffic supervisors,officers for ushers, crowd control,log i s t i c s suppor t for cones ,barricades and signs. Our primaryneeds are to control all trafficrealted activities, including thechurch, motorcade and internmentsite in a timely manner.

After the planning begins and acomprehensive picture begins toform of all the events, activities,services, ceremonies, logistical needs, and related expenses, then theword “yes” may be cautiously used.

There will be little opportunity for in-depth discussions, revisions andpreparations. A select strategic planning team may find themselvesresponsible for a staff of a hundred people on the day of the services,

with events at several locations, and attendance in the thousands.

You primarily work with smaller agencies rather than those inlarge cities. Why is that?

My experience has been that larger agencies have experienced adeath recently and they have someone who has experience or theyat least have a plan they can dust off and put to use again. Smalleragencies, like Simi Valley, where I have worked, don’t experiencean of f i cer ’ s death thatfrequently. They were justoverwhelmed when theyexperienced a line-of-dutyin 1995. I worked with oneagency recently, in a smalltown here in California, thathad not had a death in 90years.

What’s the most rewardingpart of your job?

There is great comfort in providing a memorial service that reflectsthe reverence and admiration all police officers feel when a fellowofficer falls in the line-of-duty.

extremely popular and described byadministrators as a “cutting-edge officer”who was part of the department’s recentmodernization.

“I had the fortunate opportunity to grow uparound Scott,” recalls Officer C.A. Hunt ofthe Lakeside P.D. “He along with severalothers influenced me to become a policeofficer. I respected Scott greatly not onlybecause he was a great police officer, butbecause he showed a sincere passion forlaw enforcement and a sincere passion forhis family and fellow officers. He will begreatly missed but never forgotten. Scott was

a TRUE HERO!”

[ Onl ine Po l i ce Academy ]

For over ten years the Online Police Academy hasprovided America’s law enforcement professionals withauthoritative and engaging distance learning opportunities-– from “Perspectives on Terrorism” to “Violence on SchoolCampuses”.

Featuring courses written by recognized experts in theirfield, each of our distinguished instructors either conductscourses in resident universities, professional trainingfacilities, state certified police academies, or is adepartment training officer.

Formerly a division of the Smith& Wesson Academy, theONLINE POLICE ACADEMYfound itself looking for a newhome when management atS&W de-emphasized training.As the AAPO and the PoliceProtective Fund were alreadyin the process of developingweb-based training courses, itwas a natural for ourorganizations to assumeoperation of this importanteducational resource for lawenforcement officers.

Vital and Timely Courses

“We are delighted to bring these two great organizationstogether to provide the law enforcement community withvital and timely courses that will contribute tothe professional growth of every policeofficer,” said OPA Administrator David Dierks.“We welcome the ONLINE POLICE ACADEMYto the AAPO family and look forward to workingwith our new colleagues.”

ONLINE POLICE ACADEMY can be found atOnlinePoliceAcademy.org or through PoliceUSA.com.

In recognition of its design,content and service to the lawenforcement community, theOnline Police Academy is theproud recipient of the followingawards.

Bill Clede 1928 - 2003

Emile W. “Bill” Clede, acclaimed writer and founder of the OnlinePolice Academy passed away on June 16, 2003 in his hometown ofWindsor, CT.

Clede, 75, continued to oversee the law enforcement courses he offeredthrough OPA, right up until the time of his death. A longtime member ofthe American Association of Police Officers, Bill approached the AAPOin 2000 to take over the reigns of the distance learning organizationhe founded in conjunction with Millersville University in Pennsylvania.The Online Police Academy was later offered through the Smith &Wesson Academy until finding its final home with the AAPO.

“Over the past two years, we worked closely with Bill, insuring that thelaw enforcement training he established would carry on,” says DavidDierks, Chief Financial Officer of the AAPO and the Police ProtectiveFund.

Bill’s courses, including “Concealed Handgun Carry For Police”, havealways been the most popular on the OPA site. “We will continue tooffer his courses through the OPA,” notes Dierks, “preserving his uniquevoice within the law enforcement community.” (All proceeds from hiscourse will benefit his family.)

Bill enjoyed an active and varied career. He graduated from theUniversity of Maryland in 1951 majoring in law enforcement. He wasemployed by the U.S. Navy, Riverdale Maryland Police Department,U.S. Air Force, National Rifle Association, Hartford Connecticut Timesnewspaper and the Windsor Connecticut Police Department.

Bill’s first writing effort, a column on the rights of gun owners, sold in1954 for $5 to his local weekly newspaper. Since that time he soldmore than 1,500 magazine articles and newspaper columns, as well as

author ing s ix books . Hewas also a proud memberof Nat ional R i f leAssoc iat ion , Soc iety ofProfess ional Journal i s t s ,International Association ofLaw Enforcement FirearmsInstructors, and AmericanSociety for LawEnforcement Training.

Bill’s own personal credo isbest summed up on h i swebs i te . Referr ing tocourses and his often lively

and outspoken views, Bill stated: “I can only promise that everything Iwrite is what I believe to be true with sources attributed. My primaryprofessions, reporter and police officer, are based on truth. For me,it’s a way of life.”

Bill is survived by his beloved wife Lois. Memorials may be sent to theAmerican Heart Association, 2550 US Highway 1, North Brunswick, NJ08902. For on- l ine express ions of sympathy please v i s i twww.desopo.com.

[ C loud Over Amer i ca : Te r ro r i sm & Law Enfor cement ]

Q. You practiced thesetechniques on the dogs sothat later on in one of youroperations you would be ableto perform such techniqueson human beings, is thatcorrect?A. Yes. We wanted to knowwhat is the effect of the gas,yes.

The Sept. 11th terrorist strikes on the Pentagon and World TradeCenter were devastating, but as every law enforcer knows, theywere certainly not a worst case scenario.

There remains today the very real possibility that terrorists areplanning to strike the United States with a weapon of massdestruction. Properly employed and under the right environmentalconditions, chemical weapons could kill tens of thousands ofpeople. Biological weapons could kill hundreds of thousands.

There are those, outside the law enforcement community, whocontinue to dismiss the threat and criticize our government’svigorous response. I encourage them to read the testimony ofAhmed Ressam. After being convicted for his role in the avertedMillennium bombing of the Los Angeles International Airport,Ressam agreed to cooperate with U.S. prosecutors in the July2001 trial of co-conspirator Mokhtar Haouari. His testimonyoffers chilling insight into Osama bin Laden’s terrorist trainingcamps and into the merciless minds of the Islamic extremists whostill threaten this country:

Prosecutor: Why don’t you tell the jury about the experimentsthat you conducted on dogs? Start with the experiment whereyou watched as your chief put a dog in a box, correct?Ressam: Yes. We were all present there.Q: He added sulphuric acid to the cyanide, correct?A: Yes.Q. And the dog shortly thereafter died fromthat experiment, correct?A. Correct.Q. How long in general would you say thatyou watched these dogs suffer?A. Not very long.Q. How long?A. Not very long, I don’t remember precisely,maybe four minutes, because the dog wasvery small.Q. In the four minutes you watched the dogsuffer before the dog died did you doanything to stop your leader from killing the dogs?A. No.Q. You wore a mask over your face during these experiments,correct, so that you would not breathe in any of the poison?A. Yes.Q. You practiced these techniques on the dogs so that later on inone of your operations you would be able to perform suchtechniques on human beings, is that correct?A. Yes. We wanted to know what is the effect of the gas, yes.Q. Some of your potential targets while you were in the campwere American citizens, is that correct?A. In regard to targets in general, yes. Yes, we were speakingabout America as an enemy of Islam. ...Q. The reason you were trained in the use of cyanide at thecamps in Afghanistan was because you were going to use cyanidein your urban warfare, correct?A. Possibly if I needed it, I would use it.Q. One of the examples was to put the cyanide near the airintake of a building such as a government building, correct?A. Yes, that’s right.Q. And the reason that you were trained to put the cyanide nearthe air intake would be to kill the most amount of people withoutendangering yourself and without being detected, correct?A. Yes, that’s how gas is used in killing. ...

The Po l i ce P ro tec t iveFund works wi th lawenfor cement exper tsto he lp the na t ion’slaw enforce rs facedomes t i c te r ro r i sm.The fo l lowing pagesprovide in for ma t ionabout these ongoinge f fo r t s .

While many outspoken critics of the war on terrorism dismiss thechilling implications of Ressam’s testimony, America’s lawenforcement community is professionally honor bound to preparefor the worst.

Thus far, law enforcement’s response to the challenges of homelandsecurity have been magnificent. However, there is still much todo. In addition to terrorists organizations, law enforcers mustface another foe — an enemy as stealthy and potentially lethalas the terrorists themselves: namely the lack of resources neededto fully train officers to deal with chemical and biologicalweapons.

The Police Protective Fund, a non-profit organization, is proud tolend a hand to our Chiefs and Sheriffs who continually strive tokeep their personnel trained and equipped. Although no amountof training is ever enough, we are confident the CD rom, “Terrorism:A Law Enforcer’s Survival Guide” is an invaluable educationalresource for the entire department. Using a simple and easy touse format, the CD rom offers law enforcers an effective way toaccess this vital information.

In addition to the educational materials found on the CD rom, thePolice Protective Fund offers the full length version of FederalOfficer Greg O’Hara’s course (Terrorism’s CBR Threat”) throughthe Online Police Academy (www.OnlinePoliceAcademy.org). Ifyou would like members of your department to enroll in theonline course and benefit from Officer O’Hara’s years ofexperience in the dangers of CBR, please contact us through theOPA website. (PPF will cover the tuition fee for departments withlimited training resources. PPF also offers additional copies ofthis CD rom at no cost.)

This educational initiative is our way of supporting the men andwoman of law enforcement. Through these and other efforts, thelaw enforcement leadership of the Police Protective Funddedicate ourselves to supporting those heroic Americans in uniform-- both home and abroad -- who make a stand for freedomeveryday and who more rightly claim the title, “Americans forPeace”.

AN EDUCATIONAL RESOURCEFROM THE LEADERSHIP OFTHE POLICE PROTECTIVEFUND

TERRORISM:A LAW ENFORCERSURVIVAL GUIDECD ROM

With more than 1,600 CD roms alreadyrequested by departments and training agencies, “Terrorism: A Law Enforcer’s SurvivalGuide” CD rom offers law enforcement officers a wealth of vital and critical informationregarding terrorism and its impact on the safety. Using a simple and easy to use format, theCD rom, was written and developed by a distinguished expert in chemical and biologicalterrorism, Federal Officer Greg O’Hara.

“The goals of the material are simple:awareness, improvisation, quick thinking, and above all self-survival,” observed GregO’Hara, a veteran of both the military and law enforcement anti-terrorism initiatives. “TheCD rom offers officers a fundamental awareness of terrorism: What it is, how to recognizeit and how to prepare for it. With that knowledge, first responders are safer and betterprepared.”

Designed to provide a general introductionto the basic concepts for first-responder awareness at the scene of a potential terroristincident, the CD rom offers law enforcers who have received little training in dealing withWMDs an effective way to access this vital and often complicated information.

An Interview with CD rom’s Technical Advisor,Federal Agent Greg O’Hara

Greg O’Hara knows terrorists. Or at least he knows how terroriststhink. “Thinking like a terrorist is easy for me,” says O’Hara.“How can I perform mass hysteria upon the general population?Where can I get the most bang for the buck.” O’Hara has usedthis knowledge to create “Terrorism: A Law Enforcer’s SurvivalGuide,” a CD-Rom available from the Police Protective Fund.To date, various law enforcement agencies across the nationhave requested more than 1600 copies.

Now, O’Hara says it’s time to bring this training to a newaudience… the general public. “Right now, we need to teachpeople how to look for signs in a terrorist attack so they knowhow to be prepared when first responders come in.”

As an example, O’Hara points to a recent New York City newsreport giving Big Apple residents a tour of the state’s emergencycenter of weapons of mass destruction.The top-secret warehouse is stocked with state of the art detection equipment, protective gearand decontamination systems. New York State has already taken delivery of 125 trailerssimilarly equipped.

O’Hara believes this type of information works directly against terrorists. “If you tell peoplewhat is going on you remove rumor, you remove surprise, misconception. That’s the only thingthe terrorist has.”

O’Hara is proposing a series of government funded public service announcements, on television,radio and CD-Rom to give Americans basic information on how to respond to a chemical orbiological attack. “Can you tell if a person is dying from cyanide poisoning? Most peoplecan’t,” Says O’Hara. “We need to be teaching people about WMD’s and terrorists’ use ofWMD’s. Inform them … these are blistering agents, they are blood agents, these are nerveagents. These are the symptoms; these are the smells that they’ll smell. These are biologicalagents, these are chemical agents.”

While training of first responders is crucial, O’Hara believes the amount of training timerequired per year is keeping some from getting the training they would need in the event ofa terrorist attack. Consequently, a program designed for the general public would helpbridge that gap. “Terrorism is covert. It’s designed to grow fear in the public’s mind that thegovernment can’t protect them from the terrorist. If we impart knowledge to the public on howto respond to a WMD attack, they’ll eat it up.

O’Hara says the effort would be relatively minimal compared to the results. “Bottom line –this is an awareness course. It’s not meant to make you an expert, it’s meant to keep you alive.”For more information on Greg O’Hara, visit his website at www.nbcnco.com.

As important as first responders are to the war againstterrorism, Suzanne D’Ambrose performs a task vital tothe future of law enforcement in America. D’Ambrose, alaw enforcement instructor at Monmouth CountyVocational School in Freehold, New Jersey, is activelytraining tomorrow’s first responders today.

Clearly, the events of 9/11 have had an overwhelmingimpact on today’s law enforcement agents. ButD’Ambrose has seen at least one positive result of thetragic event. “Attendance for my class has jumped90%,” says D’Ambrose. “I think the economy has a lotto do with it. My students are seeing that mom and dadcan’t buy that new car and they are looking for successfulcareers. The trend just started around 9/11. I nowhave a waiting list of students who want to be in myclass.”

D’Ambrose has also seen a change in the curriculumtaught to these prospective first responders. “We spenda lot more time on community policing,” says D’Ambrose.Today’s cops are in schools, in senior citizen communities,spending a lot more time with the general public. Iused to spend one week talking about communitypolicing, now it takes me three weeks to teach thatsection. Cops are dealing with the public more andletting go of that façade of ‘you can’t talk to me… I’m acop.’”

Veteran law enforcement officers as well as studentshave benefited from D’Ambrose’s experience. Incooperation with the Police Protective Fund, she createda program for School Resource Officers. “I took mytraining as a teacher and my experience as a policeofficer and pulled together what I thought wasimportant,” says D’Ambrose. “Basically, it’s methods ofinstruction. My short title is ‘Teaching police officershow to teach.’” Currently, there are efforts underwayto take the curriculum nationwide with an online courseoffered through the Police Protective Fund website.

It’s all part of an awareness and increased interest inlaw enforcement, which D’Ambrose finds veryrefreshing. “Kids are changing in a good way. Thesekids a few years ago were out of control, wild. Today’skids are more focused,” she says. “Their attitude iscompletely different because they are more focusedon what they want to do.

This summer, D’Ambrose retired from the Del Mar PoliceDepartment after nine years. She says she is encouragedby the enthusiasm in her students these days and theopportunities that lay ahead for her professional life asa teacher.

Maintaining security for our nation is aconstant duty for local state and federallaw enforcement. A great deal ofcooperation between these entities isrequired to keep our country safe fromterrorist attacks. Still, there is more thatcan be done to encourage collaboration.

Dennis Haley, special agent with the FloridaDepartment of Law Enforcement, believesthere is room for improvement incommunications between agencies. He saysturf wars, a break down in the sharing ofinformation and questions of jurisdictionwork against our country’s homeland securityefforts.

According to Haley, the primary problemis access to information. He says Floridaand a handful of other states are workingon ways agencies can access informationon individuals. “The local police, the copon the beat, are who comes in contact withindividuals day in and day out and theyneed to be able to access this informationas well as provide information to thisdatabase,” says Haley.

The solution may come from an automated,national database, similar to the NationalCrime Information Center, where agenciescan make inquires and get immediateanswers.

“The problem we are dealing with is thatwe receive intelligence information that isnot always confirmed. It is informationreceived from confidential sources anddatabases secret to the general public.And certain federal agencies are forced tosit on that information, not share it, becausethey would be in violation of the law,” saysHaley.

According to Haley, the state of Florida iscurrently converting to a new intelligencedatabase, known as Matrix. The systemwill help agencies within the statedisseminate information. Haley believesthis type of system will be necessary toimprove homeland security efforts. “Forthere to be any real security for our nationwe must all work together as one.”

ONERECKLESS PURSUITFoot pursuits can be dangerous. Somedepartments recommend that a lone officernever engage in a foot pursuit. In any case,use great caution and, if you lose sight of yourtarget, discontinue the chase and set up aperimeter.

TWOPOOR SEARCHThere are so many places a suspect can hideweapons that your failure to search is a crimeagainst fellow officers. Many criminals carryseveral weapons and are able and preparedto use them against you.

Effective and thoroughsearches are essential toofficer safety. Search asif you know the subjecthas a weapon hiddenand, when you do findsomething, check evenmore closely for anyadditional weapons.Communication betweenpartners is crit ical.Remember the importance of watching yourback.

THREENOT ENOUGH RESTDid you get a good night’s sleep last night?When is the last time you tried qualifying atthe range after physical exertion? Manyofficer involved shootings occur after extremephysical activity. If you were in a fight foryour life, would you be able to endure thestruggle and overcome? To do your job youmust be alert and in shape. Being sleepy onthe job or physically unfit can endangeryourself – not to mention your fellow officers.
