Course Description

In law enforcement, every contact is an interview. So, it is essential for both investigators and street officers to master the art of interviewing and interrogation. Advances in forensic technology have confirmed that overly coercive interviewing techniques and clever psychological tactics can produce false confessions and cause people to shut down. The Inductive Interview System is proven to produce credible results and reliable confessions.

Easily mastered by any officer, the Inductive Interview System creates an environment conducive to full disclosure of the truth while overcoming a subject’s attempts at deception or suppression. Our unique, “non-linear” approach is significantly different, more reliable, and much more flexible than traditional interviewing systems.

Course Topics:

• Why People Lie
• The 6-Step Inductive Interview Process
• Specialized Questioning Techniques
• Behavioral “Leakage”
• Verbal Indicators
• The Ten Types of Deception
• Seven Virtues of an Interviewer
• Managing Denials
• Induction Techniques
• Turning an Admission into a Confession
• Documenting the Confession
• Divergence Techniques
• Rationalizations and Minimizations
• Preventing False Confessions
• Signs of Surrender

Presented in a fast-paced, dynamic format, the workshop features case studies and videos of actual interviews and confessions to emphasize the training points.

Criminals invade neighborhoods much like pythons have invaded the Florida Everglades.

While on “Python Patrol” in the ‘Glades, I took a few minutes to record this latest Police Dynamics training videos. In this segment from the Dynamic of Strongholds, I use the metaphor of roaches invading a house to illustrate how ineffective traditional law enforcement can be in fighting crime in troubled neighborhoods. Just like roaches rely on a disorderly and dirty environment in which to breed, criminals rely on Fear, Apathy, Tolerance for Crime, and Mistrust of the Police. These environmental elements are best attacked through a coactive trust-based relationships with the community.

After last month’s webinar on the E5 Leadership: the Essentials of Ethical Excellence hosted by the Justice Clearinghouse, they took the Q&A session from the end of the webinar and converted it into an online article. To take a look, go here: http://justiceclearinghouse.com/resource/after-the-webinar-e5-leadership-qa-with-ray-nash/

The participants asked these very insightful questions:

1. How do we hire for character and how could we modify existing hiring practices to accomplish this?

2. How can you regain trust when you have made a bad decision despite years of making good ones?

3. How do we justify leniency for a previously “model officer” in light of all public attention on our work?

4. How do we begin this conversation with the leadership team to clearly set the standards?

On Thur. June 21 at 1:00PM EDT, the Justice Clearinghouse is hosting the last webinar in the Police Dynamics leadership series: E5 – The Essentials of Ethical Excellence.

In this session, we explore the five “Es” of ethical leadership all built around the standards of the organization:

E1 – Establish the Standard:
Almost all law enforcement standards are behavior or performance-based. Learn the importance of establishing character-based standards within your agency or team.

E2 – Embrace the Standard:
Once the standards have been established, how can they be communicated effectively? The organization’s standards should be reflected in policy, promotions, training, and discipline.

E3 – Encourage the Standard:
How to motivate officers and staff to achieve the highest of standards of ethical decision-making and professional performance.

E4 – Embody the Standard:
When it comes to leadership, the messenger IS the message. The standards of the organization must be reflected by its leaders.

E5 – Enforce the Standard:
How to deal with ethical and performance failures. A character-based system of progressive discipline is the final step in achieving ethical excellence.

This is the second webinar in our Centurion Principles series. It airs live through Justice Clearinghouse on April 24 at 3pm EDT.

The majority of work-related stress in the law enforcement profession stems from unhealthy internal relationships. Unresolved internal conflicts:

• result in hurt, depression, anger, and jealousy
• undermine internal discipline
• reduce agency effectiveness
• contribute to bitterness and other stress-related disorders

Learn how the integration and promotion of specific CENTURION Virtues can restore renegade officers, stabilize internal relationships, and reduce stress.
