Lance LoRusso, Author of When Cops Kill To Speak At The Georgia Department of Natural Resources

SUWANEE, Ga. - June 20, 2013 - PRLog -- Attorney, Lance LoRusso, author of the acclaimed book, When Cops Kill: The Aftermath of a Critical Incident will be speaking at the Georgia Department of Natural Resources Committee and Board Meeting on June 25, 2013 at 9 AM ET at Georgia Southern University 1332 Southern Dr  Statesboro, GA 30458.  LoRusso will be speaking in favor of the creation of a new law enforcement division within the Georgia Department of Natural Resources.  Currently there is not a single law enforcement division within the department and some GADNR law enforcement personnel report to civilians who are not familiar and versed with law enforcement procedures. The proposal that LoRusso will be speaking on will create a more efficient structure that will reduce liability for the Department and State and also protect the Department’s law enforcement officers, as well as, providing standardized hiring policies and procedures.

“The proposed change for the Georgia Department of Natural Resources will provide greater efficiency and cost-effectiveness for the state,” said Lance LoRusso.  “Even more importantly it will provide law enforcement officers within the Department with greater protection and a more streamlined process of operations.”

When Cops Kill: The Aftermath of a Critical Incident by LoRusso, is a comprehensive book for law enforcement and family members of law enforcement officers to deal with the aftermath of the law enforcement officer having been involved in a shooting or violent alteration with a suspect. The book deals with the media coverage that will follow such an incident, the investigation, the potential of a civil lawsuit and how to deal emotionally with such an incident. The book is an excellent resource for law enforcement officers and their family members for the day when the call of duty leads to more than a random warrant being served or ticket being issued. LoRusso draws on his hands-on experience as a former law enforcement officer as well as an attorney who represents law enforcement officers.  Proceeds from the sale of When Cops Kill are being donated to charities for law enforcement officers and their families.
