Thin Blue Defend is the app that collects information to assist in the defense of police and security officers in use-of-force cases in anticipation of criminal and/or civil litigation.
The current system used by law enforcement agencies nationwide for reporting use of force incidents is a two-page questionnaire that fails to adequately guide officers in capturing all the critical details needed for investigations and litigation that usually follow these incidents. The numbers of officers are at critically low levels. Many current and prospective law officers are shying away from law enforcement careers due to the increasing threat of litigation that could destroy their careers and lives if they are not properly prepared.
Having these details can influence court decisions that mean the difference between continuing as an officer, incarceration, or bankruptcy.
Seven Eight CEO J. Douglas Parker, a 30-year veteran of the Georgia Bureau of Investigations and author of “A Killher Plan,” developed Thin Blue Defend as the first and only mobile application that guides law enforcement through the process of documenting critical details in Use of Force incidents to aid officers in their defense for anticipated investigations and civil and criminal litigation.
