Basic Handcuffing

Handcuffs are the tools most often used by police officers and security personnel.  Despite their extensive use, training is often overlooked or left up to the individuals to practice on their own.  Experience dictates that individuals quite often attempt to resist arrest or detention, resulting in injuries to both subject and officer.

Topics included; liability, the law, nomenclature, guidelines, handcuffing the non-resistive and aggressive subject, handcuffing from the standing and prone positions, removing handcuffs and the use of contact/cover officers.
