Presenter: Timothy Welbeck, Esq.
The highly publicized deaths of Rekia Boyd, Michael Brown, Philando Castille, Jonathan Crawford, Jonathan Edwards, Ezell Ford, Eric Garner, Akai Gurley, Aiyana Stanley Jones, Laquan McDonald, Tamir Rice, Alton Sterling, Walter Scott, et al. at the hands of police officers has brought renewed attention to the crisis of extrajudicial killings, and has encouraged closer examination of critical issues within law enforcement. This 60-90 minute seminar examines the conduct of police officers in the United States, and thereby will examine doctrinal, theoretical, and practical perspectives on the nature of policing at the local, state, and national level.
