DATABASES "Electro-Muscular Disruption Technology: A Nine-Step Strategy for Effective Deployment" Electro-Muscular Disruption Technology (EMDT) is a group of devices that use a high-voltage, low power charge of electricity to induce involuntary muscle contractions that cause temporary incapacitation. More police departments are using EMDT on resisting subjects, with a minimum of serious injuries or lethality. The increased use of these weapons, however, has raised concerns about the safety of EMDT, as well as the liability and risks associated with deployment of these products. This document, published by the IACP, is located in the Core Database under document #590868. "Valley "Are You Ok?" Computer Call Back System" This policy is taken from the Lewiston, Idaho, Police Department Policy Manual. The purpose of the Valley "Are You Ok?" Program is to provide a method for checking on the well being of Lewiston citizens who might face emergencies at their residence. The program will also serve the needs of citizens in Clarkston, Asotin County, Washington and Nez Perce County, Idaho; with the Lewiston Police Department’s Community Programs Officer serving as the program coordinator. The program utilizes computer technology to contact the participants daily by telephone. This policy, which includes the department's RUOK Field Interview Form, is located in the Policies Database under document #591164. NETWORKING The Germantown Police Department Needs Your Help!
