Violent Jihadists in the United States &

Law Enforcement Responses New Lenox Police Department

200 Veterans Parkway, New Lenox, IL 60451 Monday, May 9, 2016 8:00 am till 4:00 pm

Course Description: It is crucial that U.S. law enforcement is made aware of the dynamics of the violent jihadist threat on U.S. soil and craft solutions to combat it. The full-day program, Violent Jihadists in the United States and Law Enforcement Responses, addresses these and related timely topics as set out below. Since September 11, 2001, there have been hundreds of violent jihadist terrorist plots in the United States—San Bernardino, Chattanooga, Fort Hood, Times Square, Boston Marathon, to name a few—of varying degrees of sophistication and risk. Some of the plots were in the theoretical phase, others at disparate levels of planning, with the remainder reaching the execution phase. The violent jihadist terrorists included self-selected jihadists working alone; others comprised small groups, while larger cabals constituted the remaining groups. The violent jihadist plots in the U.S. encompassed many modus operandi and targets. Topics include:

History of Global Jihad: Selected Ideologues, Groups, and their Impact on Current Jihadists

Selected Jihadist Activities in the United States Prior to September 11, 2001 Selected Jihadist Activities in the United States After September 11, 2001

o Al Qaeda, Al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula, Other Jihadists and their Activities on U.S. Soil

o Combating Jihadists in the U.S. through the use of the Material Support Statutes

o ISIS/Islamic State connected/inspired attacks in the U.S.

Selected Law Enforcement Responses, Tools, and Strategies to Combat Domestic Jihadists

Rapid Medical Response 5 “Self-aid/Buddy-aid” (SA/BA) Kankakee County Sheriff's Office

3000 S. Justice Way, Kankakee, IL 60901 Tuesday, May 10, 2016

8:00 am till 4:00 pm

Course Description: Patrol officers are at greater risk than ever before due to escalating violence, better trained terrorists, and offenders who have military or paramilitary style training. The ever increasing intent of these criminal elements is to kill first responders in military type ambushes and wreak havoc in urban environments. Our medical and police first responders are not adequately trained or equipped to deal with the critical moments during these horrific events. Paramedics are not allowed into combat zones while shooting is still occurring. The police, therefore, are on their own to treat themselves and others for wounds sustained during a response to multiple shooters. Consequently, this workshop incorporates military style responses to active shooters with combat medical support that parallels the tactics required. This workshop familiarizes patrol officers with the basic uses of the Israeli bandage and other methods of emergency self-medical care during active shooting incidents or terrorist attacks. The workshop features use of combat tourniquets and pressure dressings similar to those used by the U. S Military in Iraq and Afghanistan. Course Summary: This 1-day course provides officers with the skills to provide life-saving self-aid/buddy-aid (SA/BA) in the event of serious injury. What differentiates this training from a standard first-aid course is the focus on providing proven tactical medical concepts in an austere and hostile patrol environment. During the morning session, officers will receive lecture and practical instruction in the core concepts SA/BA; airway/breathing, bleeding control/shock, assessment, high-threat evacuation. In the afternoon, officers will participate in multiple law enforcement based scenarios. These scenarios allow each officer to apply the SA/BA concepts learned in a dynamic patrol based setting.

Mental/Physical Response to Trauma Airway/Breathing Management Bleeding Control/Shock Management Rapid Casualty Evaluation High-Threat Casualty Evacuation Hands-On/Practical Training Scenario Training

The Instructor(s): Are supplied by, Professional Tactical EMS Consulting, (PROTEC). PROTEC specializes in providing tactical EMS consulting/contracting services and medical training to law enforcement agencies.

Tactical Field Interviewing New Lenox Police Department

200 Veterans Parkway, New Lenox, IL 60451 Thursday & Friday, June 2 & 3, 2016

8:00 am – 4:00 pm The subject matter of this course falls within the key training guidelines for the in-

service training requirements for Lead Homicide Investigator.

Course Description: The 2-day Wicklander-Zulawski (WZ) Seminar on Tactical Field Interviewing is designed to teach and reinforce the sound fundamentals of the field interviewing process for the patrol officer, field investigator, detective, police officer, special agent, or other law enforcement professional. Course participants learn a broad range of cutting-edge methods and proprietary tools to conduct more effective interviews and interrogations in their terrorism-related investigations that will result in more actionable intelligence, quicker admissions and better statements.

Instruction includes a comprehensive overview of non-confrontational interviewing methods to overcome the resistance of a traditional criminal or terrorist operative. Attendees will learn to assess verbal and non-verbal behavior, offer rationalizations, handle denials, detect deception and evaluate truthfulness. This course will enhance communication, interview and interrogation skills for a more focused and successful investigation of terrorist activities.

The non-confrontational approach to field interviewing has been recognized for the way it produces faster and more accurate results. In many cases, admissions are achieved without the suspect ever making a denial or protesting his innocence. Additionally, suspects often reveal more about their activities than during a traditional confrontational interrogation approach. The multiple strategies taught in this class provide flexibility to alter interviewing strategies depending on the reaction of the suspect. Simply said, if one method is not working, the investigator has additional techniques to utilize.

COURSE OBJECTIVES: After completing this course of instruction the participant will be able to: • Understand the law on criminal interviews and interrogations and the development of the admission into legally acceptable confessions. • Interpret and evaluate the suspect’s verbal and physical behavior as they relate to truth and

deception during field interviews. • Apply factual analysis to the interviewing process. • Assist subjects in recalling events and details of past activity. • Employ non-accusatory interview techniques to obtain information and detect subject’s truthfulness. • Enhance their skills to effectively investigate ongoing, organized drug trafficking, money

laundering, terrorist financing, and other financial transactions suggestive of criminal activity.

• Uncover patterns, trends and correlation indicative of money laundering or other criminal activity.
