Police recruits required to take ‘wrongful conviction course’
Extra intense coaching is coming for brand new law enforcement officials in Illinois.
CHICAGO – There’s a new coaching requirement this 12 months for all police recruits in Illinois.
Officers in coaching should take the course “Wrongful Conviction Avoidance”.
The course teaches the significance of fastidiously gathering and analyzing proof in investigations, and never leaping to conclusions about suspects.
“A variety of these wrongful convictions police could have had some position in, and even unintentionally, simply not following greatest practices,” stated Michael Schlosser.
