Please join the Smart Policing Initiative (SPI) on Wednesday, August 26 from 2:00 to 3:30 p.m. ET for the “Less Lethal Technologies in Law Enforcement” webinar. This webinar will describe devices/weapons classified as less-than-lethal used by law enforcement departments. The goal of this webinar is to provide a basic understanding of less lethal technologies and to enhance the knowledge of those who use such devices in the performance of their duties.
This webinar will be presented by Mr. Charles Stephenson, a SPI Subject Matter Expert. Mr. Stephenson will provide a brief introduction to less lethal technologies along with notes on the effectiveness of several devices in use today. He will address the issue of training, policy, and what is considered legal use of force in the United States, to include a short explanation of rights under the 4th Amendment. He will also provide an overview of the various technologies including existing, newly developed, and future devices.
