I have 32 years of experience, and specialize in the field of law enforcement, with specific knowledge in the areas of arrest policy and procedures, use of force, and proper police policy and procedures. I have published on such topics as the legal aspects surrounding deployment of police canines. My career has focused on advising and representing the Connecticut Department of Public Safety and the State Police Officer Standards and Training Council (POSTC) on a wide variety of legislative, policy and legal issues related to law enforcement administration, concentrating on arrest policies and procedures and the use of force.
