Description
 
This book titled “Lethal Force and the Objectively Reasonable Officer” was published by Looseleaf Law Publications, Inc. in 2015 (www.LooseleafLaw.com/800-647-5547). It was written to help save the lives of law enforcement officers from the often-deadly attacks leveled against them by persons who have no regard for the sanctity of life. It was likewise written to assist officers who have been involved in deadly force situations in defending themselves against potential criminal charges and civil lawsuits for alleged constitutional rights violations. The book explains the legal principles involved in civil rights lawsuits filed pursuant to 42 U.S.C. §1983 in excessive force and deadly force matters. It contains many actual case studies; ; and action/reaction and wound ballistics studies designed to educate law enforcement management officials (including Internal Affairs Officers), prosecutors, judges, juries and the general public regarding street officer vulnerability to serious injury and death in the real world of police work.
