Rose and Warren discuss several court decisions in relation to the need for police departments to ensure the continuance of effective, current, and realistic officer training to reduce any potential liability lawsuit payouts. Among other cases, Anderson v. Creighton set the standard of a reasonably well trained officer by which liability will be examined, while Richardson v. U.
