What to do in a Critical Incident

CALL THE MNPEA LAWYER FIRST!

>Really should be first phone call
>Have your critical incident card ready & on you.
  (Number is on our bulletin board)

Firmly, but politely assert your rights.

Don't talk to "friends", partners, or fellow officers about the FACTS. But don't get isolated either.

Refuse to write "reports" until after your lawyer gets there. If problem persists, lawyer can deal with it. Don't write, sign or agree to anything.

Don't do anything without talking to your lawyer first.
> Definitely DO NOT give or make statements.
