Lynn Continued from Page 1 Recruits learn about the complexities of traffic stops early in the 16week po lice academy. They’re covered during the use of force section. The Range 3000 system offers com putersimulated scenarios in two train ing rooms. Recruits go through the paces of a traffic stop facing a giant video screen, armed with a laserbeam pistol, taser and pepper spray. An in structor sitting at a monitor in the back of the room can change the scenario as it unfolds. Scott Willadsen, use of force coordi nator at DPSST and a former Union County Sheriff ’s Deputy, puts Stradley through a couple of scenarios to demon strate the system. One is a “rolling domestic,” where a man and woman have been reported ar guing in a vehicle. Stradley pulls them over and both occupants end up exiting the vehicle. The male driver is belliger ent and only complies after Stradley draws his taser. In the second scenario, Stradley pulls over a vehicle for speeding in a neigh borhood. The driver is hostile as he hands over his license and registration. Stradley learns he’s armed and dangerous, asks for a cover unit, and does not reap proach the vehicle. All the while he keeps an eye on the driver, who can be seen leaning over in the front seat and seconds later firing a gun out the win Is there a Willamette Valley area non profit organization that could use funds? The Big LeBocce charity tourna ment is a chance for teams to play and earn money for the charities of their choice. For $100, a team of four can compete in the bocce ball tournament at Vander beck Valley Farms in Mt. Angel and earn money for the local nonprofit they’ve named as beneficiary. Sponsored by AmeriTitle, the tour ney is set for Wednesday, June 19. Teams must register by June 5. Family, friends, kids, and community members are welcome. No previous experience or skill is required. Food and drinks will be onsite for purchase. Questions? Contact dow. Stradley returns fire. Willadsen debriefs Stradley about his decisions. “Even if somebody shoots you doesn’t necessarily mean you have the ability to shoot back,” said Stradley, not ing if the backdrop of the vehicle in the second scenario had been a schoolyard instead of foliage he would have had to find a different angle. Across the hall in another training room, recruits get “live” experience. Their pistols are loaded with plastic tipped rounds for these confrontational simulations. Getting shot hurts by de sign so recruits don’t get comfortable going into a rain of gunfire. In one traffic stop scenario, the “sus pect” exits the vehicle and fires shots at the “officer,” who gets hit in the leg and applies a tourniquet. It was eerily like what happened last week with the Sa lem Police officer, although shots were fired from inside the vehicle. Instruction can be a life saver Instructors debrief recruits after each scenario, which they believe is just as valuable as the exercise itself. They point out what recruits did right and wrong and discuss whether the use of force was appropriate. It’s nearly impossible to train for ev erything that could happen in a traffic stop, and mistakes will inevitably be made at the academy and in the real world. The goal is to not make a mistake that will cost an officer his or her life. “There’s no way to tell them ‘When this happens, do this,’ “ Stradley said.

We pre pare them the best we are able to make quick, decisive decisions for a better, safer and proper conclusion.” Willadsen said quick, decisive deci sionmaking doesn’t necessarily mean quick, decisive action. A tactical retreat may be the right decision. The recruits take turns playing the role of the bad guys, too. “There’s a huge amount of value in them being on both sides of the equa tion,” Willadsen said. “They get to see overreaction on both sides.” Training focuses on communication and awareness. Recruits learn how to deal with adrenaline and stress because they will have to make complex deci sions in fractions of a second. paranoid. The hope is their training and approach will minimize risk and prevent complacency. “It’s very difficult preparing for something that’s probably not going to happen,” Stradley said. Once a recruit graduates from the academy, his or her training continues with their respective hiring agency. Salem Police assigns each of its recruits to a Field Training Officer, an experienced member of the department who provides ongoing instruction, su pervision and guidance for about six months. Four phases of field training al low progressively more independence until the recruit is allowed to operate so lo. The department also conducts con frontation simulation training four times a year for its officers and not just on traffic stops but domestic calls and EDPs, or emotionally disturbed per sons. In light of what happened, Salem Po lice could gear the next quarterly train ing toward best practices for traffic stops. “Generally, when a large event like that occurs, our trainers will go back and create scenarios similar to that so we can work on those,” Upkes said. “Forward This” taps into the heart of the Mid-Valley — its people, history, and issues.

Traffic stops start with respect The first 28 years of his career, Stra dley worked on the streets in Portland. He made thousands of traffic stops, each time gathering information about the surroundings and trying to antici pate what the driver might do. The tactics haven’t changed since he first put on a uniform in 1983. “How you try to approach a car is to treat everyone with kindness, compas sion, empathy and respect, and at the same time be prepared for a deadly force encounter,” Stradley said. “Both have to be in play, even though most officers throughout their career will never face that; 99.9 percent of the time the person in the car is just a nice, decent person.” Instructors at the academy talk to recruits about being vigilant but not BX1880 RCK54-23BX MOWER DECK • 16.6 Gross HP,† 3-Cylinder Kubota Diesel Engine • 4WD with Rear Differential Lock Standard • Category I, 3-Point Hitch • Performance-Matched Implements Available www.edwardjones.com Member SIPC LOCAL ADVISORS Salem Area Vin Searles Garry Falor CFP ® Tyson Wooters FINANCIAL ADVISOR Mission | 503-363-0445 FINANCIAL ADVISOR West | 503-588-5426 FINANCIAL ADVISOR South | 503-362-5439 Michael Wooters Chip Hutchings Cameron Hunt CFA, CFP ® FINANCIAL ADVISOR South | 503-362-5439 FINANCIAL ADVISOR Lancaster | 503-585-4689 FINANCIAL ADVISOR West | 503-588-5426 Caitlin Davis CFP ® Tim Sparks Matthew Guyette FINANCIAL ADVISOR West | 503-585-1464 FINANCIAL ADVISOR Commercial | 503-370-6159 FINANCIAL ADVISOR Mission | 503-363-0445 Jeff Davis Phil Ridling FINANCIAL ADVISOR Liberty | 503-581-8580 FINANCIAL ADVISOR Liberty | 503-581-8580 E H T T E G O T THE POWER ONE!
