• When an officer is running
• When an officer issues specific verbal commands

• Ensure opportunities for victims to have a voice.
• Provide opportunities for the person who violated the law to repair the harm and to learn how to address the underlying causes for the violation, empowering him/her to make more positive life choices.
• Actively involve the community in the response to the harm experienced by all parties.
• Develop contract obligations that relate to repairing the harm, are achievable, and, where appropriate, address the underlying causes for the behavior.
• Ensure by the end of the process, that the person who violated the law has had the opportunity to develop an understanding of how his/her actions affected others.

Consent Waivers

Consent searches are a legitimate means of obtaining evidence, but officers must recognize that since a consent search is a warrantless search, it is presumed illegal until the state can prove it to be constitutionally legal, primarily through testimony of the officer obtaining the consent. The state does this by showing that the person giving consent had authority to consent to the search and that the person also voluntarily consented to the search.
