The Idaho Department of Correction (IDOC) intends to maintain a safe and peaceable environment for all individuals under its jurisdiction. In circumstances where using force is necessary, it must be used ethically and in the minimum amount necessary to address the circumstances. 2. It is the policy of the Idaho Department of Correction (IDOC) that in all aspects of their conduct, all staff and contractors will act with the greatest regard for the preservation of human life and the safety of all persons involved. Control Number: 109.001 2 Title: Use of Force Page Number: 3 of 31 Idaho Department of Correction 3. All staff and contractors must only use force when necessary to control the individuals under their jurisdiction to ensure the safety and security of department facilities and the general public. 4. All individuals under IDOC jurisdiction must receive fair, humane treatment and must not be subjected to avoidable injury. 5. If force becomes necessary, the least amount of force required to achieve order must be used. 6. Corporal punishment is prohibited. D. PURPOSE The purpose of this SOP is to provide guidance for use of force (UOF) incidents and reporting requirements for UOF incidents. E. RESPONSIBILITY 1. Chiefs and Deputy Chiefs of Probation and Parole, Prisons, and SIU Chief Investigator The Chiefs of Probation & Parole and Prisons and the Special Investigations Unit (SIU) Chief Investigator (or designee) are responsible for monitoring their district/facility/unit’s compliance with this SOP. They are also responsible for implementing this SOP, providing training, and ensuring staff utilize the guidelines, standards, and procedures provided herein. 2. District Managers, Facility Heads, and Supervisors District managers, facility heads, and supervisors are responsible for implementing this SOP and for ensuring staff comply with the guidelines, standards, and procedures provided herein. All managers, facility heads, and supervisors are required to review this SOP annually and participate in all UOF training offered in the district, facility, or unit. 3. Staff Staff will comply with the guidelines, standards, and procedures provided herein. Armed staff will be required to review this SOP annually and participate in any UOF training offered in the district, facility, or unit. F. DEFINITIONS 1. Active Resistance: Any resistance that poses a threat or risk of harm to the staff member or others, such as when a person attempts to attack a staff member, exhibits combative behavior (e.g. lunging toward another person, striking another person with hands or fists, kicking, or possessing any instrument that could be used as a weapon such as a knife or stick), or attempts to leave the scene, flee, or pull away from the staff member’s grasp. Verbal statements alone do not constitute active resistance. Control Number: 109.001 2 Title: Use of Force Page Number: 4 of 31 Idaho Department of Correction 2. Client: A person who has been convicted of a crime against the laws of the state and is on probation supervision as ordered by the court or parole supervision as ordered by the Commission of Pardons and Parole. The term client includes any use in Idaho law, Board of Correction rule, or IDOC policy or procedure of the terms “offender(s),” or any other term referring to a person on probation or parole supervision by the Board of Correction. 3. Control Strikes: Impact-oriented techniques used to subdue or gain control of a subject. Control strikes involve intentional staff contact on or with the body of another person, including palm strikes, knee strikes, elbow strikes, punches, kicks, and contact with pressure points such as the common peroneal nerve (side of the leg), radial nerve (top of the forearm), or brachial plexus origin (side of the neck). 4. Core Leadership Team: Consists of the IDOC director, deputy director(s), division chiefs, and human resource officer. 5. Corporal Punishment: Any measure intended to be injurious to a person. More specifically, it is a use of force on a person for the purpose of inflicting pain or discomfort, the improper use of any type of chemical substance, or violence of any kind to cause physical harm that is not done in response to a perceived or actual threat of harm to staff or others. 6. De-escalation: A decrease in the severity of force used in an incident in direct response to a decrease in the level of resistance. De-escalation is also a tactic designed to place staff members in a position of advantage when dealing with irrational, unpredictable, or suicidal persons. De-escalation helps staff bring chaotic moments to as peaceful a resolution as the person will afford. Examples of de-escalation include, but are not limited to, speaking in a lower voice, listening to concerns, demonstrating empathy, and when appropriate, creating space between the staff member and the person, or even allowing the person to safely be left alone for a period of time to collect themselves and their thoughts. 7. Electronic Control Weapon (ECW): A device that when implemented properly comes into contact with a person and uses electricity to impair voluntary motor responses and causes discomfort to assist with gaining compliance and overcoming resistance. An ECW may aid in the capture, control, and constraint of a person. 8. Exigent Circumstances: Circumstances that would cause a reasonable officer on the scene to believe that a particular action is necessary to prevent physical harm to themself or another person(s), the destruction of relevant evidence, the escape of a suspect, or some other consequence improperly frustrating legitimate law enforcement efforts. Control Number: 109.001 2 Title: Use of Force Page Number: 5 of 31 Idaho Department of Correction 9. Force: Any physical strike to or contact with a person, including contact or attempted contact with an instrument or implement, where the contact or attempted contact is intended to restrict the movement of, control the action of, or overcome the resistance of the person. This includes discharging a firearm, pointing or aiming a firearm at or near a person, use of chemical spray or an ECW upon or towards a person, exercising physical control over a person, taking a person to the ground, or deploying a canine on or towards a person. Force does not include escorting or handcuffing a person who offers no resistance to such conduct. 10. Great Bodily Harm/Serious Physical Injury: Significant or substantial bodily injury that creates a substantial risk of death, causes permanent disfigurement, or results in long-term impairment of the function of any bodily member or organ. These terms are used interchangeably in this SOP. 11. Impact Weapon: A less-lethal weapon used to control a subject’s actions, to defend against an attack, or to deliver a stunning blow. Impact weapons include batons and specialty munitions such as beanbag rounds. 12. Less-Lethal Force: Any UOF other than that which is considered lethal force. Less-lethal force involves physical effort to control, restrain, or overcome the resistance of another. 13. Less-Lethal Munitions: Less-lethal munitions are designed and primarily employed to incapacitate subjects in order to gain control of the person/situation. Examples include, but are not limited to, tasers, OC, blunt force projectiles, flash bangs, stingers, etc. Staff should only use IDOC approved less-lethal munitions. 14. Lethal Force: Any UOF that can reasonably be expected to cause death or serious physical injury to another person. 15. Non-secure Perimeter: A perimeter without armed patrols or armed towers. Of note, Pocatello Women’s Correctional Center (PWCC) does have a non-secure perimeter, but it is considered a secure facility. 16. Passive Resistance: Refusal to follow a lawful directive without using violent or aggressive methods. Example: Staff member requests that a person turn around to be handcuffed, but the person remains in a sitting, standing, or limp position, and fails to follow the direction of the staff member. 17. Physical Control: The use of physical strength and skilled defensive tactics to control a person who is resisting being taken into custody or resisting being transported from one place to another and offers some degree of physical resistance. Such techniques are not impact-oriented and include use of pain compliance pressure points, takedowns and joint locks, touching a person, and escort holds. Control Number: 109.001 2 Title: Use of Force Page Number: 6 of 31 Idaho Department of Correction 18. Physical Restraints: Physical restraints are utilized to limit a person’s movement. Physical restraints include handcuffs, belly-chains, shackles, and the Wrap restraint system. 19. Planned Use of Force: A planned UOF occurs when staff members have time to prepare a planned-out course of action to respond to a known situation. 20. Positional Asphyxia: Positional asphyxia occurs when a person is placed in a posture that prevents or impedes normal breathing. Examples of how positional asphyxia can occur include, but are not limited to: a) when person is lying prone, face down with arms restrained behind their back (the weight of a staff member’s leg or other body part that is holding the person down can rapidly increase the severity of the situation); b) when a person is put in a position that blocks their nose and mouth; c) when a person is put in a position that prevents the person’s chest from expanding. If a person is restrained in any such manner and is not released from the position, death may occur very rapidly. 21. Reactive Use of Force: A reactive UOF occurs when staff must rapidly respond to a quickly evolving situation where time does not permit staff to disengage from the situation without an undue risk to the safety of staff, residents, or the facility. 22. Resident: A person who has been convicted of a crime against the laws of the state and ordered into the care and custody of the Board of Correction. Resident includes any use in Idaho law, Board of Correction rule, or IDOC policy or procedure of the terms “offender(s),” “prisoner(s),” “inmate(s),” “incarcerated person(s)” or any other term referring to a person residing in a correctional facility in the care and custody of the Board of Correction. 23. Secure Perimeter: A perimeter consisting of two perimeter fences (both with razor wire attached) and an armed patrol or armed towers. Of note, Pocatello Women’s Correctional Center (PWCC) does have a non-secure perimeter, but it is considered a secure facility. 24. Serious Incident Review (SIR): Reviews conducted by a designated group of individuals when serious uses of force occur. 25. Serious Use of Force: Any action that involves: a. An intentional use of lethal force, including all firearm discharges aimed at or near a person or property, or use of instruments that could result in death or great bodily harm. b. A UOF that causes serious physical injury or requires emergency medical treatment (beyond first aid), or hospital admission. c. Use of ECW against a person. d. Use of chemical agents against a restrained person. Control Number: 109.001 2 Title: Use of Force Page Number: 7 of 31 Idaho Department of Correction 26. Unresisted (Cooperative) Handcuffing: When a person complies with the staff member’s verbal commands to permit application of handcuffs and/or willingly allows the staff member to position their arms in order to apply handcuffs. 27. Weapon: Any instrument, article, or substance, including a vehicle, which, under the circumstances in which it is used, attempted to be used, or threatened to be used, is readily capable of causing death or other serious physical injury. G. STANDARD PROCEDURES 1. General Statement a. IDOC’s priority is to preserve human life and ensure the safety and wellbeing of all persons, including staff, contractors, members of the public, and those under IDOC’s jurisdiction. IDOC authorizes staff to use force only as a last alternative, after all other reasonable efforts have failed to resolve the situation, or when the urgency of the situation does not allow other non- force alternatives. b. When it becomes necessary to use force, staff must use only the amount of force reasonable and necessary to accomplish their lawful objectives. Instances where force may be necessary include, but are not limited to, efforts to control a situation, effect an arrest or detention, overcome resistance to arrest or detention, prevent a resident from escaping, defend themselves or others from harm, or complete their lawful duties. c. The authority to use force carries with it the need for accountability to safeguard the rights of persons under IDOC’s jurisdiction, as well as the public, and to preserve the integrity of the Department. IDOC is committed to documenting, reviewing, and investigating (when indicated) all UOF incidents. As such, it is IDOC’s policy that all staff must report all UOF incidents in a timely, complete, and accurate manner. d. No part of this SOP is intended to require staff to unreasonably endanger themselves or others. 2. Using Force a. All UOF must be objectively reasonable based upon the totality of the circumstances as perceived by the staff at the time of the incident. Any interpretation of reasonableness must allow for the fact that staff are often forced to make split-second decisions in circumstances that are tense, uncertain, and rapidly evolving. Control Number: 109.001 2 Title: Use of Force Page Number: 8 of 31 Idaho Department of Correction b. Any acts that are not in accordance with this SOP including, but not limited to, excessive force, corporal punishment, provoking a resident/client so that force may appear justified, harassment, or the use of chemicals or electronic devices when a resident/client is restrained or controlled are prohibited. Such behavior is subject to disciplinary action in accordance with SOP 205.07.01.001, Corrective and Disciplinary Action, and may also be subject to prosecution. c. If it appears that the force used by a staff member(s) may have been excessive or unauthorized, supervisory or administrative staff will take appropriate action to address the UOF, which may include, but is not limited to, seeking a review by the Force Review Board, requesting a Serious Incident Review (SIR) (see SOP 125.001, Serious Incident Reviews), and/or pursuing corrective or disciplinary action if warranted. d. Unresisted handcuffing and routine escorts are not considered a UOF. 3. Limitations on Use of Force a. A UOF must be objectively reasonable based upon the totality of the circumstances known or perceived by the staff at the time of the incident. b. The degree of force employed should be in direct relationship to the amount of resistance exerted, or the immediate threat to staff or others. c. Each time force is used, the need for continued UOF must be reassessed. Staff must be able to articulate the need to use additional or continuing force. d. Corporal punishment is expressly forbidden and will be cause for disciplinary action. Any act of corporal punishment is to be reported immediately to a supervisor. e. Maintaining a position that causes positional asphyxia for an extended period of time is strictly prohibited. While residents or clients may be placed in a prone position, once compliance is gained, staff must move them to an upright position. f. Lethal force will be utilized only as a last resort to prevent escape from a secure facility, serious physical injury, or death to staff or others. g. Verbal commands should be given before any UOF, including lethal force, unless doing so is unreasonable given the circumstances. h. Staff must never fire any warning shot. i. Intentionally firing shots at a moving vehicle is prohibited unless there is imminent danger of death or serious physical injury to staff or other person(s) and there are no other means available to avert or eliminate the threat. Firearms may not be fired solely for the purpose of disabling a moving vehicle. Control Number: 109.001 2 Title: Use of Force Page Number: 9 of 31 Idaho Department of Correction 4. De-Escalation a. When feasible, every effort should be made to resolve a situation by using verbal de-escalation techniques before using force. However, not every situation will allow the time for verbal de-escalation. b. At least once every two years, uniformed security staff must attend formal training that focuses on and incorporates verbal de-escalation techniques. IDOC must present training often enough for staff to meet this requirement. 5. Categories of Force Force categories are not to be confused with a Use of Force continuum. These categories are used for reporting and documentation purposes only. a. Category 1 i. Category 1 UOF includes: 1) Applying physical control techniques without using a weapon. For example, using joint manipulation to intentionally cause pain in order to gain compliance. 2) Applying physical control techniques to a vulnerable area but not including strikes. For example, using pressure points to intentionally cause pain in order to gain compliance. 3) Note: A staff member’s use of physical direction alone is not a UOF. For example, placing someone on or directing someone to a wall to apply restraints when the person is compliant does not constitute a UOF. ii. Category 1 uses of force must be reported to the immediate supervisor as soon as is possible at their earliest convenience, but no later than the end of the working day or shift in which the UOF occurred. Such report must be submitted on a Use of Force Report and reviewed by the supervisor. b. Category 2 i. Category 2 UOF includes: 1) Applying a chemical agent upon or near a subject. 2) Using an ECW upon or near a subject. 3) Intentionally pointing a firearm at a subject but not firing. 4) Using an impact weapon, including specialty impact munitions, or any other instrument in an attempt to strike a subject, whether or not contact is made. 5) Using an impact weapon for a non-striking purpose. For example, prying limbs, moving, or controlling a subject. Control Number: 109.001 2 Title: Use of Force Page Number: 10 of 31 Idaho Department of Correction 6) Using physical control strikes but excluding strikes to the head. Such techniques include: a) Hand/palm/elbow strikes b) Kicks, or knee strikes c) Leg sweeps d) Takedowns 7) Discharging a firearm at an animal while on-duty. 8) Striking a subject upon the head but excluding intentional use of an impact weapon. 9) Engaging in a use of force which results in injuries to a subject requiring emergency medical treatment (beyond first aid) or hospital admission. Note: For the purposes of this SOP, an evaluation by a medical professional to assess a complaint of injury is not emergency medical treatment. ii. Category 2 uses of force must be reported to the immediate supervisor as soon as possible and in any event no later than the end of the involved staff member’s shift. The report must be submitted in a Use of Force Report, which will be reviewed by the facility head or district manager and by the division deputy chief. c. Category 3 i. Category 3 UOF includes: 1) Any use of force that results in death. 2) Any use of force involving a firearm discharge, regardless of injury. 3) Any use of force that creates a substantial risk of causing death. 4) Any use of force that results in serious physical injury as identified in the definition section of this SOP. 5) Any use of force involving an intentional impact weapon strike to the head. ii. Category 3 uses of force must be reported to the immediate supervisor immediately (as soon as possible given the circumstances) and in any event no later than the end of the involved staff member’s shift. The report must be submitted in a Use of Force Report, which will be reviewed by the facility head or district manager and by the division deputy chief. Category 3 uses of force will also be reviewed by the Force Review Board. Control Number: 109.001 2 Title: Use of Force Page Number: 11 of 31 Idaho Department of Correction 6. Use of Physical Restraints a. The proper application of physical restraints can help reduce the risk of injury. They must only be used until the need for their use no longer exists. Physical restraints will be used for the following reasons: i. When a person is taken into custody ii. When it is necessary to prevent injury to the individual, staff, or the public iii. To prevent escape iv. To prevent serious property damage v. For routine movement or transportation b. Pregnant Residents When it is necessary to restrain a pregnant person, staff must take every precaution to ensure the fetus is not harmed. Pregnant persons should be handcuffed in the front. During the third trimester (weeks 28-40) of pregnancy, residents shall be transported without restrains unless an articulable security risk requires use of handcuffs. Except in extraordinary circumstances, IDOC does not authorize use of restraints of any kind during labor and delivery. Use of restraints during labor and delivery requires approval by a chief or their designee. Pregnant clients who are arrested in the community must be handcuffed in the front. c. The WRAP Restraint System Only certified WRAP instructors can train IDOC staff on the use of the WRAP Restraint System and cannot deviate from that training in any way. Staff must participate in a WRAP-specific training before using it and must adhere to the manufacturer’s instructions and training, with no variations. 7. Foot Pursuits Foot pursuits are inherently dangerous for staff, the resident or client being pursued, and members of the public. Staff must use their best judgment when deciding to conduct foot pursuits. At a minimum, staff must consider the totality of the circumstances, including the person’s criminal history, the reason for the arrest, and the threat to the safety of staff and others. If the decision is made to pursue, staff must continually assess their surroundings and consider officer and public safety concerns. Staff must not conduct foot pursuits when alone. 8. Vehicle Pursuits a. “High-speed” vehicle pursuits (i.e. attempting to follow a vehicle that is using high speed or other evasive tactics such as driving off a highway) is prohibited, unless performed in cooperation with an outside law-enforcement agency and in a vehicle with emergency lights and siren. Control Number: 109.001 2 Title: Use of Force Page Number: 12 of 31 Idaho Department of Correction b. Simply following a vehicle while obeying traffic regulations is not considered a vehicle pursuit. 9. Less-Lethal Devices Staff may use less-lethal devices that they are certified to use and that have been issued by the Department. Staff using less-lethal force must stop using the force once it is no longer needed to gain compliance. If the less-lethal device does not gain compliance after deployment, the staff member should use another tactic. a. Types of Less-Lethal Devices i. Chemical Agents and Oleoresin Capsicum (OC) Spray 1) Chemical agents and OC spray may only be issued to and used by a staff member specifically trained in their use. 2) Chemical agents and OC spray must not be deployed when compliance or submission has been gained. 3) Staff issued and trained in the use of OC spray are authorized to use it in a reactive use of force action if needed. 4) The supervisor may authorize the use of chemical agents and/or OC spray in a planned use of force action when the circumstances dictate the need for such agents. 5) For chemical agent or OC spray usage in a facility, if time permits, medical staff must be consulted to determine if the resident(s) involved has any condition that might seriously be aggravated if a chemical agent or OC spray is used. 6) OC spray must not be used on residents/clients who have been placed in restraints, unless the staff member can clearly articulate specific facts that indicate the subject posed a risk to harm himself, the staff member, or others, and that the use of the OC spray was necessary for safety. 7) Staff members, residents/clients, or others affected by a chemical agent or OC spray must be decontaminated as soon as possible, appropriate, and safe. Use the following steps for decontamination: a) Apply copious amounts of low-pressure cool water. b) As soon as possible, remove all exposed clothing (clean clothing must be made available). c) Immediately after exposure, and when it is safe to do so, medical personnel must examine and treat the subject for any injury or side effects and then document the medical check in an Information Report. In the community, this may occur at a hospital, jail, or by EMS. Control Number: 109.001 2 Title: Use of Force Page Number: 13 of 31 Idaho Department of Correction d) Within one hour of exposure, if practical, those contaminated must be allowed to shower. ii. Electronic Control Weapon (ECW) Only trained staff may be issued and use an ECW. Such a device may only be used when circumstances dictate the need. Staff must be able to articulate the facts and circumstances that necessitated ECW use. When using an ECW, the manufacturer’s instructions must be followed. iii. Impact Weapons - Batons Only trained and certified staff may be issued and use a baton. Such a device may only be used when circumstances dictate the need for such a device. In the UOF report, staff must articulate the facts and circumstances that necessitated baton use. iv. Impact Weapons - Less-Lethal Munitions (Kinetics) Only trained staff may be issued and use less-lethal munitions. Less- lethal munitions may only be used when circumstances warrant the need for such munitions. In the UOF report, staff must articulate the facts and circumstances that necessitated less-lethal munition use. b. Training and Certification At a minimum, all staff authorized to carry less-lethal devices other than OC, must receive training and certification, for each department-issued device, on an annual basis. In addition, these staff must attend annual training and receive certification on arrest technique procedures. 10. Use of Department Issued Firearms a. Staff are authorized to use firearms in the performance of their official duties under the following circumstances: i. When the staff member reasonably believes that the subject poses an imminent danger and has the ability, means, and opportunity to cause death or great bodily harm to the staff member or another person. ii. To prevent an escape from a secure facility when there appears to be no other alternative to prevent the escape. iii. To suppress a riot when the staff has reason to believe that the subject poses an imminent risk of escape, death, or great bodily harm to another person. iv. To prevent or stop extensive damage to property if the staff has reason to believe that the damage could directly lead to escape, loss of life, or great bodily harm. b. Firearm Prohibitions i. Staff must not fire warning shots. Control Number: 109.001 2 Title: Use of Force Page Number: 14 of 31 Idaho Department of Correction ii. Staff must not fire from a moving vehicle. iii. Staff must not fire at a moving vehicle unless there is imminent danger of death or serious physical injury to staff and others, and there are no other means available to avert or eliminate the threat. Firearms may not be fired solely for the purpose of disabling a moving vehicle. iv. Staff must not fire at an aircraft or drone in flight. 11. Use of Force Equipment a. Only department-issued UOF equipment may be carried while on-duty. All UOF equipment must be purchased and issued by the department and must be maintained in good working condition. b. Upon resigning, terminating employment, or transferring, staff must return all UOF equipment issued to them to the supervisor in charge. c. In the event UOF equipment is lost or stolen, the staff member must immediately file a report with the law enforcement agency of jurisdiction. The staff member must immediately report the incident to their supervisor in writing. 12. Lethal Force Incident/Officer Involved Shooting (OIS) Protocol a. Lethal force may only be used when a staff member reasonably believes that a subject poses an imminent risk of, and possesses the ability, means, and opportunity to cause death, or injury likely to cause the death of a staff member or other person. b. All lethal force incidents will be investigated by the Critical Incident Task Force (CITF) in areas where IDOC has a CITF Agreement in place, or local, and/or State law enforcement. IDOC’s SIU will conduct a separate administrative investigation. All staff involved in a lethal UOF must cooperate fully with any related investigation. c. Staff Responsibilities Any staff member involved in the lethal force incident must do the following: i. Immediately obtain medical assistance (if needed) for any person involved who complains of or appears to be injured. ii. If a lethal force incident occurs in a community setting, immediately notify local emergency dispatch of the incident and location. iii. Notify their supervisor of the use of lethal force. Any supervisor notified of a lethal force incident must immediately notify the facility head or district manager, who must then immediately notify the division chief, who will immediately notify the IDOC director and deputy director(s). iv. Protect and secure the scene until the arrival of the on-scene supervisor and/or independent law enforcement agency conducting the investigation. Control Number: 109.001 2 Title: Use of Force Page Number: 15 of 31 Idaho Department of Correction 1) Limit access to the scene to those whose presence is needed for medical or investigative purposes. Secure scene perimeter with barrier tape, if available, and establish an ingress/egress point and a crime scene log. 2) Ensure that no evidence is removed from the scene or disturbed in any way without approval by the CITF supervisor, or investigating agency, unless removal is necessary for public safety or to preserve the evidence. 3) When capable, the staff member should holster or otherwise secure their own weapon that was used, without altering the weapon. It should remain undisturbed until the weapon is collected. 4) Loose weapons or instruments that belong to the subject or the involved officer(s) must be left in place if the scene is secure and it is possible to place a guard on the weapon. If the scene is not secure, safeguard the items, but do not alter them. Alteration includes “making a weapon safe”; this must not be done unless it is impossible to safeguard the weapon in any other way. Notify the supervisor upon their arrival of the location of all weapons and any alterations made to them. 5) When possible, involved officers should digitally record dying declarations, spontaneous statements, contemporaneous statements, or statements of then existing or previous mental or physical states. 6) Maintain proper evidence keeping and recording procedures at all times (see SOP 116.02.01.001, Custody of Evidence; SOP 116.04.02.000, Custody of Evidence: Community Corrections; and SOP 153.01.01.001, Body-Worn Camera Systems). v. Brief the first arriving supervisor of the nature of the incident and actions taken. Identify involved staff, assisting staff, and witnesses. Advise them of the need for future law enforcement action or activity. vi. Upon request, surrender all weapons (including backup weapons) or equipment used in the incident or in the staff member’s possession at the time of the incident. vii. Aside from the information that must be provided to the supervisor, an involved staff member must avoid discussing the incident with anyone until interviewed by the assigned CITF investigator (or state/local investigator if there is no CITF presence), except: 1) When briefing the responding supervisor; and/or 2) When speaking with a clergymen, psychologist, or legal counsel in one-on-one sessions. Control Number: 109.001 2 Title: Use of Force Page Number: 16 of 31 Idaho Department of Correction 3) No involved officer will participate in any group debriefings or group therapy sessions until the formal interview with CITF/assigned investigator is complete. viii. Complete a Use of Force Report and submit it to their immediate supervisor. This may be delayed until interviewed by the law enforcement agency assigned to the investigation. ix. Cooperate fully with the CITF, local, and/or State law enforcement agency conducting the lethal force investigation. Cooperate with staff conducting the administrative investigation. d. On-Scene Supervisor The on-scene supervisor must do the following: i. Care for involved staff. ii. Coordinate aid and medical care for any person involved in the lethal force incident. iii. Confirm the scene is secure and ensure it remains secure. iv. Contact the facility shift commander, CRC manager, or district manager. The facility shift commander must immediately contact the facility head. v. Account for all involved staff and equipment. vi.

Each staff member who uses force must submit a separate written Use of Force Report. The staff must articulate, in specific detail, the facts and circumstances surrounding the force used. ii. Any staff member who witnessed a UOF must advise their supervisor and submit an information report. Control Number: 109.001 2 Title: Use of Force Page Number: 20 of 31 Idaho Department of Correction iii. If staff used force on more than one subject during the incident, they must complete a separate Use of Force Report for each subject.

The division chief has the responsibility of disseminating findings from the FRB to all managers within their division, and reporting the findings to the Core Leadership Team. The FRB will fulfill the role of a Serious Incident Review panel. 17. Use of Force Requirements for Probation and Parole a. Operations Involving Law Enforcement and Special Operations Units In the course and scope of their duties, department staff may be assigned, asked, or required to operate in close cooperation with law enforcement and special operations units. Law enforcement and special operations units undergo intense, highly specialized training that is above and beyond the operational training and ability of department staff. As a result, department staff may assist law enforcement and special operations units but only to the level of authority, training, and experience the specific staff member has (e.g., warrant/search authority). In general, staff must maintain perimeter or outside support status until entry has been made and the residence or Control Number: 109.001 2 Title: Use of Force Page Number: 22 of 31 Idaho Department of Correction building is declared secure by the law enforcement or special operations unit team leader. b. Operations Presenting Imminent Risk Upon occasion, in the course and scope of their duties, PPOs may encounter a situation that presents an imminent danger to staff, clients, or other persons. Imminent danger involves exigent circumstances created by a set of facts that reveal a compelling need to take immediate action. Before acting on imminent danger, the department staff member must have an articulable reason that the totality of the circumstances establish an immediate risk of great bodily harm or a threat or danger to life of staff, clients, or other persons and local law enforcement is not present and available or able to provide an immediate tactical response. In these limited situations, where the PPO has an articulable concern for the life of staff, client(s) or others, departmental staff may take appropriate steps to meet and reduce the identified risk , including making a forced entry into a client’s residence or other physical premises to preserve life or mitigate harm (e.g., a subject is observed through a window to be choking, or suffering from a suspected overdose). 18. Use of Force Requirements for Prisons a. Reactive Use of Force If a reactive use of force action is necessary, use the following steps: Functional Roles and Responsibilities Step Tasks Staff Member 1 If practical, before force is used, give the resident verbal instructions to comply. Staff Member 2 If the resident complies with the verbal instructions, do not use force as long as the resident continues to comply and allows restraints to be applied, if required. 3 If the resident refuses to comply, only apply the type and amount of force needed to gain and maintain control of the resident. Staff Member 4 When it is safe to do so, provide verbal notification of the use of force to the shift commander.
