If public sector police officers violate constitutional guidelines, they face the potential consequences of suppressed evidence, as well as personal criminal and civil liability. In addition, the nature of their job requires significant public exposure and consistent pressure to be sensitive to the public relations as they interact with patrons and other employees. In an effort to provide a reference for police officers employed by public sector institutions, this book discusses liability, civil rights, and police powers. It describes procedures for confronting suspicious persons, arresting suspects, and search and seizure. In addition, the book covers suspect identification, evidence, surveillance, entrapment, and first amendment rights. The book also addresses special considerations in public sector institution law enforcement, such as pursuit driving, dealing with juveniles, dealing with military personnel, establishing probable cause with intoxicated drivers, diplomatic immunity, and drug law enforcement. An overview of liability and specific aspects of tort liability is included. Relevant legal cases are cited, along with excerpts from the U.S. Constitution and selected pertinent statutes from the U.S. Code. 13 references
