Synopsis:  

Following the recent issues which have occurred in our nation, we have received several calls regarding the stance of the Mendocino County Sheriff’s Office regarding use of force.  We first would like to thank all of the people who have reached out to us during these times. We truly appreciate these calls and conversations. 

Currently the Mendocino County Sheriff’s Office is working hard on training in various fields including use of force.  Sheriff Allman was able to procure a use of force simulator prior to his retirement.  This tool will be employed for in depth training of our personnel as well as deputy sheriffs and police officers from other agencies.   We are working to partner with other law enforcement chiefs to ensure all peace officers within the county receive the training which is needed to deliver the best work product we possibly can.
 

Senate Bill 978 requires law enforcement agencies to post on their
website “all current standards, policies, practices, operating procedures, and education and training materials that would otherwise be available to the public” if a request was made pursuant to the California Public Records Act, located in Government Code §§ 6250 et seq.

To comply with this law, the Mendocino County Sheriff’s Office has made available the documents at the below provided link, unless the material falls within an applicable exemption under the Public Records Act.
