can be from a police standpoint. However,
the jury decided that, had the officer taken
a split second to wait behind a camper that
he was behind to maybe think it over a little
bit longer, maybe he might not have hacV to
confront the individual and shoot. And we're
all blown away by that one because that's,
you know that's just out of the realm of even
any reality. I mean, here's an individual
who made the best decision they possibility
could and somebody second guessed their
decision, so how do you train that? You
really can't. So that area is cropping up
more and more where regardless of what the
policies and procedures and tactics and the
things that are taught by the organization
whether or not they're followed, the issue of
negligence can be shown in almost any
instance, especially in human interactions,
so we are real concerned about that.
?: Was that a jury trial?
Bostic: That was a jury trial.
?: You going to appeal it?
Bostic: Yeah, they're going to appeal it.
?: That's the USC or down by USC instance, or
the Colosseum, right?
?: Yes.
?: Commander, is there some management tool by
which when check
one of these litigations there's some way for
management in the department to look at what
might have caused the problem, maybe conclude
that there was nothing that could have been,
but to use that information that comes out of
the civil litigation to take corrective
action, is there any process to that?
?: Yeah, we have a civil liabilities unit that
handles all those cases from a department
standpoint and then brings back those
findings to the staff in command of the
organization the training staff
when we have bigger issues, like I said,
we've had several cases like this recently,
its really very frightening,
whenever you take someone's life.
