Background

The Chandler Police Department recognizes the current Arizona statutory law dictating that
“no unnecessary or unreasonable force shall be used in making an arrest, and the person
arrested shall not be subjected to any greater restraint than necessary for his detention.”
The Chandler Police Department stipulates officers must adhere to their training unless the
situation justifies a deviation from that training.”

The Chandler Police Department began to utilize the Use of Force Review Board in 2008 to
ensure the proper documentation of all applications of force, evaluate those applications
for adherence to established policy, and determine any additional training needs.? The
board meets monthly to evaluate the prior month’s incidents, and quarterly reviews are
prepared to share information and findings with the Citizen Review Panel.

This analysis contains use of force statistics for the fourth quarter of 2022 to identify
prevalent trends or deficiencies per the current CALEA standard.‘ in addition to an internal
comparative analysis, this report will illustrate training issues that emerged throughout the
quarter, as well as the number and general nature of injuries sustained by personnel and
suspects.

incidents were handled by the individual officer's chain of command.
