Tuesday - Thursday; March 31 – April 2, 2020 8:00 am till 3:00 pm

This course complies with the guidelines of the following mandate(s):

Civil Rights | Constitutional & Proper Use of LE Authority | Lead Homicide Investigator | Legal Updates

Course Description: This is a 3-day, twenty-one hour program on the Reid Technique of Interviewing and Interrogation®. The course includes; interview and interrogation preparation, behavior symptoms, the Reid® Behavior Analysis Interview (B.A.I.) and “The Reid Nine Steps of Interrogation” which include:

Interview and Interrogation Preparation The style, appearance and approach of the successful interviewer and interrogator will be covered, as will the room settings conducive to these activities.

Behavior Symptoms Differences in verbal and nonverbal behavior between innocent and deceptive persons often can be observed, and are thus indicative of whether or not a suspect is telling the truth. A guilty suspect makes a conscious decision to resist your effort to get at the truth. In trying to maintain a structure of verbal lies, however, that suspect most often develops internal conflicts and tensions which manifest themselves in nonverbal behavior. Thus, body movements, facial expressions, eye contact, attitudes, posture and grooming gestures can indicate whether the subject is telling the truth or lying. Nonverbal indicators can also be used to determine whether the suspect under interrogation is listening, maintaining a defiant attitude or is ready to confess. You will learn how to observe and assess critical behavior symptoms and use those assessments to determine whether to move on to the next step of the interrogation.

Reid®” Behavioral Analysis Interview “(B.A.I.) The information developed through use of the standard investigative questions of “who,” “what,” “when” and “how” is often not adequate — even in combination with physical evidence — to identify the wrongdoer. The Reid Behavioral Analysis Interview is a technique that uses a structured set of non-accusatory behavior-provoking questions developed as a result of many thousands of interviews. The B.A.I. makes it easier to determine whether the suspect is telling the truth about involvement in the matter under investigation, and is flexible enough to be used in cases ranging from employee theft to homicide. The Reid Nine Steps of Interrogation® The nine-step approach to a successful interrogation has been developed by John E. Reid and Associates through extensive research and practical experience over a period of 60 years. Because of the subject’s importance, approximately half the classroom time in the seminar is devoted to the interrogation process and detailed examination of each of the nine steps.

John Reid and Associates will provide the instructor for this class.

New Lenox Police Department 200 Veterans Parkway, New Lenox, IL 60451

Friday; April 3, 2020 8:00 am to 3:00 pm

This course complies with the guidelines of the following mandate(s): Civil Rights | Constitutional & Proper Use of LE Authority | Lead Homicide Investigator | Legal Updates

Course Description: This course is for individuals who have completed the 3-day seminar on The Reid Technique of Interviewing and Interrogation, and builds upon their knowledge of the Reid Technique.

Most unsuccessful interrogations are a result of the investigator’s inability to move the guilty suspect from one stage of the interrogation to the other. Reid has defined three distinct stages of the interrogation that may give the investigator problems:

1. Defiant stage: seven proven tactics to move suspects out of this stage 2. Neutral stage: four proven techniques to get the suspect to listen to the

interrogator’s themes 3. Acceptance stage: three specific techniques that will dramatically increase

admissions of guilt

People who commit crimes do so to fulfill certain needs. What needs were satisfied is based upon the case facts, evidence and results of the interview — types of needs that will be thoroughly discussed are: • Real need crimes • Impulse need crimes • Esteem need crimes • Lifestyle need crimes

The Advanced Seminar will also address the following specific problem areas for some but not all interrogations: • Juvenile interrogations • Interrogation regarding guilty knowledge • Playing one suspect against another • Interrogation on multiple crimes

This course will be taught by Instructors with John E. Reid and Associates, Inc.
