Detecting the Impaired Driver in 60 Seconds

Tuesday, March 26, 2024

12:00 PM - 1:30 PM (MST); 11:00 AM - 12:30 PM (PST)

Presenter

Cpl. Aaron Botts - Denver (CO) Police Department

The prosecution and investigation of DUI offenses are some of the most difficult cases for both prosecutors and law enforcement. However, despite such difficulties, these cases can be much more efficiently and effectively investigated and prosecuted when a law enforcement officer has simply asked the right questions in the right way during Phase Two of DUI detection. Interrupting questions that divide the driver’s attention are a staple of Phase Two’s Personal Contact. During his over fifteen-year career – including six years as a dedicated DUI Unit and over 1200 DUI investigations – Cpl. Aaron Botts of the Denver Police Department has taken the typical questions officers have been trained to ask for decades, and put them in a precise order, with new follow-up questions. Throughout this session, Cpl. Botts will explain this simple but effective technique that has allowed him to better detect and subsequently arrest impaired drivers that may have otherwise been left on the road. Such information will allow law enforcement officers to hone their Phase Two investigatory techniques, and it will provide prosecutors with better information of what to look out for as they review Phase Two of DUI cases that cross their desks.

Cannabis & Chemical Testing

Tuesday, May 21, 2024

Presenter

Ryan Hutton, Extract-ED Training

With the growing number of states in the US legalizing cannabis for recreational purposes, are law enforcement officers making the correct arrest decision? Studies have shown cannabis does not impair the same as alcohol. Performance on field sobriety tests may not correlate with chemical testing results. This presentation will break down SFST results during a green lab and discuss concerns around prosecuting the cannabis impaired driver based on SFSTs.
