The things that he taught were simple and applicable. He shows both his successes and his failures in his career. Instead of hiding failure he encourages ownership and overcoming those failures with preparation. I highly recommend this course to any Officer looking to grow and fight crime. |

As a seasoned deputy I appreciated the insight into current trends in trafficking and how to be proactive in the interdiction of these
traffickers. |

We covered case law, probable cause, and reasonable suspicion, then closed with an important discussion on officer wellness. Instructor Dakota Cook was knowledgeable and made the material personal and easy to relate to real-life patrol work. Overall, it was a great reminder of both sound tactics and self-care in the field. |
