In this three-hour LEA ONE online course, retired FLETC Senior Legal Instructor Bruce-Alan Barnard will host a discussion on Constitutional Policing and how the legal rights of citizens can be significantly impacted by the attitudes of the public and by the police officers themselves. Topics will include:

• The intent of the first eight amendments to the United States Constitution.
• The sections of the Bill of Rights that directly relate to policing.
• The clash between modern-day policing concepts and individual liberties.
• The increasing role technology plays in both policing and attitudes about policing.
• The role of social media in shaping attitudes and expectations with police use of force.
• The evolving law governing civil and criminal liability for police officer actions.

Seating is limited. Certificates of attendance will be sent to all who register and attend.
