About the Course
The goal of internal affairs investigations is always to investigate with integrity, go where the evidence leads, and always seek the “truth of the matter.” We owe this to the men and women in law enforcement and to the public that we serve. In this course, Jerry Rodriguez covers what administrators need to know including how complaints should be investigated and by who, best practices for maintaining investigative integrity, and investigative techniques and protocols.
