"before you file a criminal complaint based only on this provision of the law, be sure you can commit yourself to a long drawn out legal process where you will be personally called upon to repeatedly defend your interpretation of what was specifically unlawful and why. it may be helpful for you to maintain a collection your department's training materials and policies which cover this. you can expect various levels of your department's management may not agree with your interpretation of unlawful use, be ready to counter their testimony"
Thanks, MarkWhiskey. This is exactly the type of input I'm looking for.
Anyone else? I want to start working on finalizing this over the weekend.
Also thank you to Lonnie for the original effort in making this PA version of the doc.

But it would be very informative to most people.
Steve, if all the local LEO were like you we wouldn't be having this conversation

I'm thinking of a trip to wherever mullen sits in office, if he stays in and personally handing it to him.
