Use of Deadly Force Investigations with Robert Santoro 1 of 2: Learn from a man who spent years investigating OIS

Please message us! We’ll pin to the episode, and would love a dialogue.Between homicide investigations, homicide supervision and state level investigations, Robert has spent considerable years collecting facts following violent crimes.  If you wear a badge and carry a gun, there is a chance that at some point you will pull the trigger while aiming at a human.  Doing this without a justifiable reason is a crime - aggravated assault, attempted murder, murder.Doing this within law and policy is deemed "justified" - kind of like that bad TV show where the cop in the cowboy hat shoots someone every episode and then says, "It's justified."Having investigated many officer-involved deadly force encounters, Robert is highly qualified to discuss the legal standards involved in his investigations, case law, and generally what to expect in the hours and days following your incident.After you pull the trigger is not the time to find out if you have to give a statement immediately, timing of report writing, and generally what the investigators will be looking at.  No surprises needed on the most traumatic and pivotal day of your career.As always, you are encouraged to listen with a critical ear.  If someone you work with has had one or multiple officer-involved shootings, encourage them to listen and confirm accuracy.  Relevant Case Law:GRAHAM v.
