Coral Springs Florida 2018
On February 14, 2018, a former student entered Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland Florida, killed 17 individuals, and wounded another 17. Retired Chief Tony Pustizzi, a 30-year veteran with the Coral Springs Police Department, along with members of his agency, arrived at the school within minutes. A multidisciplinary approach, including law enforcement, first responders, emergency managers and school administrators and staff, was initiated. This session includes a deep dive into the events that unfolded that day. Chief Pustizzi will also discuss many of the issues that ensued with regard to leadership and the unique challenges he experienced as an on-scene commander. He will review the response to the shooting and provide an analysis of the lessons learned.

Michael D. Ranalli, Chief (Retired)
Duty to Intercede: A Leadership Tool to Mitigate Risk and
Managing Risk in a Video World
Michael D. Ranalli, JD, retired as Chief of the Glenville, NY, Police Department after having served as Chief for 10 years; having started his law enforcement career in 1984, with the Colonie NY PD. Chief Ranalli is a frequent presenter and author on various legal issues as well as a published author and editor. Additionally, he is a consultant/instructor on police legal issues to the New York State Division of Criminal Justice Services and he has taught officers around New York state for the last fifteen years.
Chief Ranalli holds a bachelor's degree in criminal justice from the State University of New York, Utica/Rome and a Juris Doctorate from Albany Law School. He is admitted to the New Yorek State Bar and the Federal Bar (Northern District of New York)
Chief Ranalli's courses will focus on when and to whom "duty to intercede" applies and how to intercede effectively to keep officers safe and mitigate risk. Proper policy, training, and agency culture around the duty to intercede can create redundancies to help prevent and/or mitigate tragedies when officer are under high-stress encounters.
Additionally, Chief Ranalli's presentation will provide an overview of the use of video in two contexts: understanding an incident that has already occurred and using video for training and evaluation of current policies and procedures because cameras and their footage are both an asset and a liability. Both the media and the public use video recordings as irrevocable "truth" when both interpreting and subsequently discussing incidents involving your public employees and security professionals.
