When Cops Kill

When Cops Kill is my effort to educate law enforcement officers (LEOs), their spouses, their families, the public, and the media of the reality of an officer involved shooting (OIS). I have been a law enforcement firearms instructor for nearly 25 years. Across the United States, LEOs are taught that if they use deadly force, they will face an administrative investigation, a criminal investigation, and a prosecutorial investigation likely leading to a grand jury. We also tell them they will likely be sued. I wrote When Cops Kill to give the rest of the story about the details of those investigations, the media scrutiny and the "informal media" barrage that follows an OIS. I also want readers to understand the realities of taking a life as a LEO. I interviewed LEOs who used deadly force, LEOs who were shot in the line of duty, and family members who received the call they dreaded. When Cops Kill gives a realistic view of what happens "after the smoke clears" and is dedicated to all the LEOs who did not come home at the end of their shifts. All profits benefit law enforcement charities. - Author.
