When Dr. Erroll G. Southers was called in to offer security advice to a Delaware school that was experiencing violence, one of his recommendations was for the school to free up one room for use by local police. The school complied, and local police found the room to be very useful, as it gave them a place to file paperwork without having to go back to a police station.
“They had more cops going in and out than they ever could have paid for,” Southers told approximately 100 attendees in his keynote address at the 2019 RS2 Technologies Conference in Coronado, Calif. March 5-8. In addition, he said, there are now more students who want to be police officers.
