FBI-LEEDA Insighter | August 20132

Greetings

It’s startling how quickly time flies when you are having fun. It seems like it was just yesterday that I was running for an office on the FBI-LEEDA board. Here it is 2013; I’m now the President of such an outstanding associa-tion and I must say that I’m excited about the upcoming year and I am especially humbled and proud to serve each of you.

I would like to thank outgoing President Ozzie Kne-zovich for his service to our membership. To Past Presi-dents, Dick Thomas and Don Dixon, I salute you for the leadership, mentorship and fellowship that you provid-ed during your tenure on the board.

The vocation of policing and public safety continues to confront new challenges that also present a wealth of prospects for initiating substantive transformation. However, I believe that police leadership is better posi-tioned to address them in ways that benefit the field and that maintain American police leaders’ position at the forefront of the profession.

I am so proud to be a part of this association because FBI-LEEDA understands that there is a void of qual-ity and relevant training in many areas of the country. Our training faculty understand that our training focus should be more on developing critical skills and less on individuals’ perceived skills.

With early retirement incentives, many agencies are replacing veteran leaders with relatively young officers with little or no experience in leadership roles. FBI-LEEDA stands ready to answer and provide the needed instruction as we continue to further develop and pro-mote the science and art of law enforcement leadership and management, to address this vacuum in law en-forcement leadership.

FBI-LEEDA understands and emphasizes the need for stronger partnerships between federal, state, and local law enforcement. We must continue to ensure that we are able to effectively piece together the information our government agencies collect on criminal threats.

Because of our partnerships with private partners, such as, Lifelock, Purdue Pharma, Tiversa, and many others, FBI-LEEDA is well positioned to provide you op-portunities to get upfront and personal with state of the art products and technology to help law enforcement leaders succeed in making their communities safer and their agencies more efficient. To all of our private part-ners, thank you for all of your support.

I look forward to leading FBI-LEEDA over the next year and I want you to know that I am proud to be a member of this fine association and, just as proud, to be a member of the executive board.

— Sheriff Greg Hamilton President, FBI – LEEDA

Skip

Charles Robb Executive Director FBI – LEEDA

A few months ago, I sat down and wrote a brief article for this magazine in which I closed out my 27 year ca-reer with the FBI which included 6 years as your liaison to the FBI. It is now with great enthusiasm, excitement, and humility that I move into the position of Executive Director of FBI-LEEDA.

One of my first pleasures as Executive Director is to thank all of you who attended the 22nd Annual Execu-tive Training Conference in Louisville. Thank you also to our conference host, LifeLock. This conference was the largest and most successful in FBI-LEEDA history! We are already planning and looking forward to the 23rd Annual Executive Training Conference to be held in Tampa, May 4-7, 2014.

Congratulations are due to our new leader, Greg Hamilton, Sheriff of Travis County, Texas, as well as our new Executive Board members Paul Shastany, Chief of Stoughton, MA Police Department and Tom Alber, Chief of Garden City, MO Police Department. We also thank Sheriff Ozzie Knezovich for his contributions as President this year as well as outgoing Board members

Chief (Ret.) Dick Thomas, Port Washington, WI PD and Chief Don Dixon, Lake Charles, LA PD for their many years of service on the FBI-LEEDA Executive Board.

I would like to close with a special thanks to Tom Stone. As the first Executive Director and a Charter member of FBI-LEEDA, Tom has developed this organi-zation into a highly acclaimed Association, known for its extraordinary training opportunities. All leaders leave a legacy. Tom’s legacy is the outstanding success and rec-ognition we all share as members of FBI-LEEDA. Tom has provided all of us with a road map for organizational success and will continue to share his knowledge and experience as Executive Director Emeritus.

All the best,

FBI-LEEDA

Executive Leadership© This innovative three and one half day program is de-signed for senior law enforcement executives focusing on the emerging challenges facing our profession. This highly interactive program follows the FBI – LEEDA “Cops Talking to Cops” model of professional develop-ment. The seminar uses a wide range of source mate-rial and calls upon the participant’s professional experi-ence to facilitate individual development and enrich the learning environment.

The course first looks inward to identify the forces of change and emerging trends within the law enforce-ment community, such as the challenges of merging the perspectives of Traditionalist, Baby Boomer, and Gen-eration X and Millennia employees and presents leader-ship strategies to manage and adapt to the future condi-tions. The program also looks into the future to forecast several emerging global “Megatrends” that are expected to shape conditions for the next few decades; discuss how those trends will affect the global law enforcement community and how police executives can influence and shape future conditions.

The registration fee for Executive Leadership© is $550.

Leadership and Leaders Without Titles How to Influence Others Without Using Authority / ForceMany leaders are placed in positions of power due to connections, education, personal cha-risma, experience, and/or socio-economic sta-tus. Although these criteria may have a corre-lation with leadership ability, they often leave out the fundamental criterion for being a good leader: a person’s personal make-up, or charac-teristics, as a human being. A leader’s human inadequacies can often lead to leadership fail-ure.

This class will explore the human attributes leaders should have before given the formal au-thority. The registration fee for the Leadership and Leaders Without Titles is $550.

This module will also review the requirements of interviewing witnesses, documentation of evidence and injuries, interviewing the subject officer, and reviewing the officer’s use of force report.

Module Four: Conducting Internal Affairs Investigations

On May 13, 2013, the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit came down with a favorable opinion for law enforcement involved in a fatal “officer involved shooting” incident. The Court’s opinion is well thought out and analyzes and evaluates each step of the incident as it progressed, ultimately leading to the fatal shooting of the suspect. A case such as this can serve as a useful learning tool for your officers to demonstrate how their actions will be critiqued and discussed post-incident, as well as those factors a court focuses on when determin-ing whether an officer’s use of deadly force in a particu-lar incident was objectively reasonable.

On September 25, 2009, at 2:00 a.m., Officers Daron Wyatt and Matthew Ellis were en route to a routine call. While turning left at an intersection, the officers were cut off by a van driven by the deceased, Adolf Anthony Sanchez Gonzalez, who then proceeded to make an il-legal left turn in front of them and pull into a gas station. The Officers were forced to brake aggressively to avoid a collision, but continued on their way to the routine call. The officers, returning from the call a minute or two later, noticed that Gonzalez’s vehicle was still at the gas station.

Due to the manner in which Gonzalez had operated his vehicle just a few minutes prior, the officers became suspicious and ran his plates. Upon determining that the vehicle had been involved in a prior narcotics stop, the officers decided to follow the vehicle to determine the need for any further law enforcement action. A few blocks from the station, the officers observed Gonzalez’s vehicle weaving within its lane and proceeded to pull it over. Even though the officers activated their lights, the vehicle proceeded for an additional 200 feet before making a wide-sweeping turn to pull over. The officers pulled in behind the vehicle and approached from both sides, with Ellis approaching on the driver’s side and Wyatt on the passenger’s side.

As Ellis approached, he observed Gonzalez reach back with his right hand toward the area between the driver and passenger seat. Wyatt drew his gun and yelled at Gonzalez, warning him that if he reached back again, he

would shoot him. Gonzalez then proceeded to clench his hands tightly in his lap. Gonzalez refused to comply with Ellis’ repeated commands to turn off the vehicle. When Ellis noticed a plastic baggy in Gonzalez’s right hand, which he believed to be drugs, both officers or-dered Gonzalez to open his hands; which he ignored.

The officers reached through the vehicle’s open win-dows to unlock both doors. Wyatt then reached through the now-open door and struck Gonzalez on the arm with his flashlight three times. Gonzalez proceeded to move his right hand toward his mouth, and his left hand toward the area between the seat and the door. Wyatt believed Gonzalez was attempting to swallow the item in his hand. Wyatt stated that Ellis, in an attempt to gain control of Gonzalez’s arms, reached through the driver-side window and attempted to apply a carotid restraint (or “sleeper hold”) on Gonzalez. Wyatt, believing that Gonzalez was attempting to strike Ellis, entered the ve-hicle from the passenger side and, with his knees on the seat, began punching Gonzalez in the head and face.

During the struggle, Gonzalez tried to shift the ve-hicle into gear and Ellis, in an attempt to stop Gonza-lez, hit him on the back of the head three times with his flashlight. Gonzalez nevertheless managed to put the vehicle in gear and pull away while Wyatt was still kneeling in the passenger seat. According to Wyatt, Gon-zalez “floored the accelerator.” Wyatt moved to a seated position and yelled at Gonzalez to stop. When Wyatt attempted to knock the vehicle out of gear, Gonzalez slapped his hand away from the gearshift. Without giv-ing another warning, Wyatt shot Gonzalez in the head. Wyatt testified that the vehicle had traveled approxi-mately 50 feet in less than 10 and possible less than 5 seconds. After the shot, the vehicle hit a parked car and came to a stop. Others officers who had arrived at the scene pulled Gonzalez out of the vehicle, handcuffed him, and performed chest compressions. Gonzalez died shortly thereafter.

On June 23, 2010, Gonzalez’s father sued the officers and City of Anaheim under 42 U.S.C. § 1983 for viola-tion of his 14th Amendment right of familial association

www.fbileeda.org 19

and Gonzalez’s 4th Amendment right to be free from unreasonable and excessive force. Gonzalez’s daughter brought a separate suit raising similar claims and the district court consolidated both actions.

The district court granted summary judgment to de-fendants and held that the force used throughout the incident was reasonable and that the officers’ conduct did not violate Gonzalez’s 14th Amendment rights.

On appeal, Gonzalez’s representatives allege that the officers applied excessive force in five instances during the incident leading to Gonzalez’s death: (1) Wyatt’s use of the flashlight to hit Gonzalez’s arm; (2) Ellis’s attempt to place Gonzalez in a carotid hold; (3) Wyatt’s punches to Gonzalez’s head and face while Ellis tried to restrain him; (4) Ellis’s strikes to the back of Gonzalez’s head with his flashlight; and (5) Wyatt’s close-range shot to Gonza-lez’s head.

To determine whether the officers’ use of force was reasonable the Court applied the factors set forth in Gra-ham1: (1) the severity of the crime; (2) whether the sus-pect posed an immediate threat to the officers or others; and (3) whether the suspect was actively resisting arrest. The Court evaluated each of the Plaintiff’s claims listed above in turn.

Flashlight Strikes to Gonzalez’s Arm

The Court stated that “officers may use a reasonable level of force to gain compliance from a resisting sus-pect who poses a minor threat.” The Court found that in this instance, the use of the flashlight to strike Gon-zalez’s arm was not excessive force given that he refused to comply with the officers’ commands to shut off the vehicle and open his hands.

Carotid Restraint, Wyatt’s Punches to Gonzalez’s Face, and Ellis’s Flashlight Strikes to Gonzalez’s Head

The Court first evaluated the severity of the crime and found that the officers had reason to believe that Gonza-lez possessed illegal drugs and was attempting to destroy evidence, and therefore committing a “felony-grade of-fense.” The Court next evaluated the immediacy of the

threat posed to the officers and others, finding this to be the most important factor. Both officers testified that they observed Gonzalez reach between the driver’s side door and the seat. The court noted that a reasonable of-ficer in that position would be concerned that Gonzalez had a weapon concealed in that location. Furthermore, given Gonzalez’s refusal to follow repeated orders and his multiple furtive reaches, the officers had reason to suspect danger. In addition, Gonzalez shifted the vehi-cle into gear and drove with the officer still in the pas-senger seat. The court found that given the escalating situation, “the officers’ justification for force increased commensurately.” Accordingly, the second Graham fac-tor weighed in the officers’ favor.

With regard to the last factor, “actively resisting arrest or attempting to evade arrest by flight,” the Court found that Gonzalez engaged in active resistance both with his motions with his hands and by struggling with the of-ficers. Then, when Gonzalez put the vehicle in drive, his active resistance became an attempt to evade arrest by flight. The Court concluded that because all three Gra-ham factors weighed in the officers’ favor, they were jus-tified in their use of significant force.

Deadly Force

Wyatt argued that, as an unbuckled passenger in a rapidly moving vehicle, he had probable cause to be-lieve that Gonzalez posed a “significant threat of death or serious physical injury to himself or others.”2 The Court stated that it is difficult to evaluate summary judgment in deadly force cases because the officer is the only surviving eyewitness. To assist in its analysis, courts “should ensure that the officer’s story is ‘internally con-sistent and consistent with other known facts’ to avoid simply accepting a self-serving statement by an officer.”

The Plaintiffs took issue with the officer’s estimation as to the approximate speed of the moving vehicle and the estimation of the amount of time that transpired during the incident. The Court reasoned that: (1) even if the vehicle was traveling at a slow rate of speed, the threat of acceleration – and to Wyatt’s life remained –


therefore, the speed of the vehicle was not a material fact; (2) rough estimates as to time are just that, rough estimates; and (3) the testimony of both officers support the contention that the van was moving rapidly. The Court reiterated that Gonzalez’s flight could have killed or severely injury Wyatt and the circumstances did not allow for a deliberate and most measured response by Wyatt. Wyatt testified that he yelled at Gonzalez to stop the vehicle and attempted to knock it out of gear. The Court reasoned that any further hesitation on Wyatt’s part could have been fatal and therefore, it was objec-tively reasonable for Wyatt to use deadly force.

With regard to the Plaintiffs’ claim that the officers violated their due process right to familial association, the Court held that nothing in the officers’ behavior sug-gests that they had an ulterior motive or that the officers had “a purpose to harm Gonzalez for reasons unrelated to legitimate law enforcement objectives.”

Conclusion

Departments should review this case with officers to reinforce the countless hours of training spent clarify-ing the facts and circumstances officers must articulate, following an incident, to justify the use of force, includ-ing deadly force. The Graham factors provide a clear roadmap for officers to explain what occurred in plain English. The question posed following the incident is: “were the officer’s actions “objectively reasonable” judg-ing from the perspective of a “reasonable officer” on the scene. What exactly does this mean? Simply, would a reasonable, well-trained officer believe it was necessary to use a similar amount of force in light of the facts and circumstances confronting the officer at that time?

When training officers on how to provide a clear picture of the force incident, officers should be told to focus on the ability, opportunity, and intent of the subject during the interaction with the officer. Departments should use the Graham factors as part of the use of force decision-making curriculum, and as a report writing template. To their benefit, the officers in this case provided a clear, concise, and factually-based accounting of the inci-dent, which the Court found to be reasonable. This case should be read by all trainers, officers, and supervisors,

and encourage them to get back to the basics of report writing, e.g., the use of verbs, nouns, and adjectives to accurately describe the actions of the subject, the sub-ject’s response to the officer’s orders, and the officer’s re-action to the subject’s response. Unfortunately, the most important part of the force incident – report writing – is often the worst part of the incident. Departments can avoid this pitfall by ensuring that their force-related policies are clear, and that officer’s receive training on them often. The success of proper force reporting starts with officers. Supervisors, however, provide checks and balances on conducting proper and complete force in-vestigations. As such, Supervisors should focus on the factual accounting of the incident in the report to en-sure it supports the officer’s decision to use force at that time. Like many high liability areas, this one starts at the beginning. As this case exemplifies, the importance of proper documentation of a force incident cannot be stressed enough.

A wise and effective chief is one who makes it clear throughout the organization, in both words and actions, that constructive input is not only tolerated, but more importantly is welcomed and appreciated

The wise leader is one who recognizes that he or she does not have all the answers, who recognizes the wis-dom of others, and who creates and maintains an en-viorment that not only tolerates, but also actively en-courages and appreciates true candor, quality input, and honest feedback.

The Quasi-Military Organization

The typical law enforcement agency fits the descrip-tion of a quasi-military organization. We wear uniforms, have military titles, and function in regimented ways. One of the occasional misunderstandings of the mili-tary, however, is that obedience is blind and that guid-ance goes unquestioned; that is just not the case. While there comes a time, especially in combat, where orders are followed without question, military leadership doc-trine places a high premium on people having the cour-age and loyalty to diplomatically question troublesome or controversial guidance. Certainly there comes a time when military personnel carry out the orders they re-ceive, but all services recognize the need for leaders to available themselves of the candid perspective of sub-ordinates, and recognize the positive attributes of those who have the courage and loyalty to both provide and accept such critical information.

Vietnam and Top Military Leadership

There is no better topic of discussion for military leader-ship failure in the area of candor than the harsh criti-cism of top military leaders during the Vietnam War. In just about every critique of the role of the military in that war, two things are strongly emphasized; there were many actions and strategies that just about every-one at lower levels recognized as largely ineffective, and a systemic failure of command-level leadership, up to and including generals and admirals, to candidly and persuasively educate their superiors with respect to the doubts and concerns concerning combat operations.

The strong personalities and bold assertions of the Secretary of Defense had a stifling and trickle-down ef-fect on military leadership, in far too many situations,

Focus on Leadership…

Chief: Are You Encouraging Candor, Quality Input, and Honest Feedback?

resulting in personnel at lower levels clearly recogniz-ing horrific problem with strategies, and folks at the up-per levels lacking the courage, fearing “career suicide,” to provide candid and perceived unwanted feed back to their higher headquarters. Without intending to be dramatic, these leadership failures contributed to failed operations, unnecessary combat deaths, and a war that went on far too long.

Talk is Cheap – You Have to Really Mean It!

Just about all Police chiefs, at least occasionally, will so-licit and consider input from subordinates, but there are far too many whose actions indicate otherwise. While most resistant chiefs will have one or more persons they do discuss issues with, these other persons are often not in positions to develop truly valuable perspectives or worse, will tell the chief what they think that he or she wants to hear.

A wise and effective chief is one who makes it clear throughout the organization, in both words and actions, that constructive input is not only tolerated, but more importantly is welcomed and appreciated. This is one of those situations where actions speak louder than words, and all the assertions of openness and inclusiveness will be disregarded if the chief fails to conspicuously em-brace input from subordinates.

“Going Through the Motions is Not Enough”

Even worse than not soliciting input is seeking it but ig-noring it. The former chief of a major department had a well-deserved reputation for going through the motions of soliciting input, but largely ignoring just about all of that he received; the standing joke was that there wasn’t so much as a comma between “what do you think” and “this is what we are going to do!” Understandably, it didn’t take long for personnel to recognize that the chief was somewhat of a “one man show” who kept his own counsel, and that providing the solicited input was pret-ty much a wasted effort.

Saying It and Meaning It

The chief’s sincerity in soliciting input, which includes constructive criticism as well, should be institionalized through the entire organization. The chief should dis-tribute to the entire department a document that en-courages diplomatic and well thought out input from all

www.fbileeda.org 23

levels of the organization, and should also make clear that interference or worse, intimidation, from any level in the chain of command that might disagree with that input, will not be tolerated.

Diplomatic and well thought out input and construc-tive criticism should continually be described as healthy and a reflection of organizational loyalty and responsi-bility. Contrary perspectives within the chain of com-mand must not be permitted to cause the original in-put to be modified, but rather should be addressed in a separate document that accompanies the original input in a process known as a “military endorsement.”

Being an “Active Listener” is Essential

Most of us can easily tell by a person’s manner and ex-pressions as to whether what we are saying is truly be-ing heard and considered by the listener. The average employee is equally perceptive and clearly recognize whether or not the chief is truly listening to and con-sidering what is being said. In face-to-face meeting, the chief has to recognize this reality, and behave in a way that makes it clear that what is being said is being con-sidered and taken seriously.

Feedback to the Employee

Whether verbal or in writing, the chief must not be seen as a “black hole” for suggestions and input. In every in-stance of input, the chief must insure that the involved employee is thanked for the input, and given feedback. In many instances, the feedback might be a discussion on why the issue(s) is being addressed differently from the input, but it should be provided in a manner that makes it clear that the suggestion was appreciated, con-sidered, and not summarily disregarded.

Bizarre Input

In addition to constructive and potentially valuable input, the chief must also recognize that some input may be somewhat bizarre and will come from employ-ees who sometimes see themselves as somewhat of a “shock jock” or who just want to “rock the boat.” This is one of those situations where the chief just has to take the “good with the bad,” consider the information, and diplomatically respond accordingly. This reality is part of the price that the chief has to pay for inclusiveness.

“Bad News Welcomed Here”

Robert Vernon is a retired assistant chief of the Los An-geles Police Department, and someone who “walked the walk” and “practiced what he preached” with respect to soliciting the unvarnished input from subordinates, however painful it might have been. His very valid per-spective was that the only things worse than the prob-lems he was aware of were the problems that he was not aware of. Accordingly, in addition to widely disseminat-ing his desire for candid input, he actually had a sign on his desk that read, Bad News Welcomed Here. His troops came to recognize his sincerity and although there were probably times when the things that people brought to his attention caused him to question the wisdom of his openness, his decisions were better decisions, and the organization was a better organization, because of his extraordinary leadership in this critical area.

Blind Obedience is Not Loyalty!

There is a type of courage that for some is far more diffi-cult to exercise than the physical variety; having the guts and inclination, hopefully diplomatic, to look your boss right in the eye and candidly discuss your concerns! Most of us have had a “unique” boss in the past where we would rather have confronted multiple armed sus-pects, armed with nothing more than a snub-nosed five shot revolver, than have been constructively critical of something that boss had done or said;

Mustering that type of courage is among the factors that separate a manager from a leader. The subordinate manager or supervisor who lacks the ability to exercise this trait is not a leader, and someone whose failure to act accordingly is letting down the organization and its personnel.

Chief, the ball is in your court. Work hard to create true two-way communications within your department, and do what is necessary to ensure that your troops know that your really mean it!
