Live Monday April 20, 2026 - 11AM - 1PM EST

 
Join retired Violent Crimes Lieutenant Brian Sanders for an exclusive live online training event designed to help officers uncover the truth during everyday street encounters.
 
Every officer has experienced it.
  • The driver who seems nervous but you can’t quite articulate why.
  • The passenger whose story doesn’t quite add up.
  • The person you’re convinced is hiding something, but you can’t clearly explain it.
Deception during street encounters has real consequences.
  • Missed behavioral cues lead to missed contraband.
  • Weak questioning leads to weak articulation.
  • And when deception goes unrecognized, violent offenders and serious criminals walk away.
Worse, it creates opportunities for dangerous individuals to expose you, your partners, and the public to unnecessary risk.
Whether you are a patrol officer, investigator, or supervisor, this training will sharpen your ability to recognize deception, gather actionable intelligence, and conduct more effective street encounters.
