Lawsuits: You need to show that your staff is trained to reduce liability.

 

The typical security guard will "observe and report" - nightclub security needs to be different and engage with customers and go beyond this.

 

You may be able to get discounts on insurance if your employees have this training.  You will have to ask insurance company for this discount.

 

TIPS Training - Server Training

ServeSafe - Server Training

 

In August offering training again at Gentleman's Expo in New Orleans.

 

Richard Bristline - Fellow Instructor - Previous Police Officer

 

They will come to your location and provide training to your staff and review your current security procedures. 

 

You will increase the amount of money in your operation by reduced guest complaints, reduced liability, reduced lawsuits, and reduced insurance premiums. 

 

You are not a police officer and must learn to be proactive instead of reactive to situations.  Security must be engaged with customers instead of waiting for situations to occur. 

 

You are the true first responder till the medic or police arrive. 

 

When engaging with customers you are providing customer service proactively.

 

Understand who your guests are and what experience they want.

 

The most aggressive / violent incidents are male, 21-28, after midnight, and intoxicated.

 

Profiling is not illegal, just what you do with this information that can be wrong.

 

Powers to Arrest / Private Person Detention

 

Infractions - traffic offenses

 

Misdemeanors - drunk, minor assault and battery, using wrong ids, disorderly conduct, vandalism

 

Felonies - narcotics, assault with deadly weapon, high dollar vandalism, high dollar theft - You need police response to protect you from the liability that may be coming from the victim.

 

CAD-computer automated dispatch - when staff calls for support, there is a record of this and this may jeopardize your license, police may be more likely to provide more over site to your facility.

 

Breach of Peace - officer jargon - call from bar / nightclub for situation at location   

 

Security knowing the difference between these allows you to profile the situation / understand the response to the situation. 

 

Private Person's Detention / Citizen's Arrest

No difference between the two.

 

Just by stopping two people fighting you are making a citizens arrest / detention.

However, you need to document the situation.  Just by breaking up a fight and removing them from a nightclub, you are making a private person detention.

 

Nevada - NRS 171.126

A private person may arrest another for a public offense committed in their presence.

When a person has committed a felony not in their presence as well.

When a felony has been committed and you have reasonable cause for believing that the person arrested committed it. 

 

Door / Exit Entry - this has a high degree of a aggressive situation arising, If person stops and turns while exiting, there is a higher likely hood of violence, while being engaged by security. 

 

Police will only arrest the security guard / bouncer when unreasonable / excessive amounts of force is used. 

 

If using handcuffs, must have training to prevent liability and injury. 

 

You can pat down and search everyone prior to entering nightclub.

4th amendment applies to the police but not private citizen / security if I need to go into your pockets for contraband.  I can reach into your pockets during detention.

Recommended Searches - contraband, felony assault suspects, ID and weapons

 

Always search detained suspects once for weapons and ID.

 

StealthVid- apple app that allows you to secretly film (screen is black while filming) for use during incidents, this can help you with reports / liability / to give to officer. 

 

Only the force necessary to stop the threat is "Allowable Force"

 

Force of Continuum to stop situation of increased severity.

Presence

Uniformed Presence

Voice Requests

Commanding Voice Requests

Body Placement to Separate

Light Hand Placement

Holds, Hugs, or Grabs

Push, Strikes, or Kicks

 

Avoid restrain / or moving aggressive customer via neck / head.  (half nelson, neck lock) unless severe threat - high liability.

 

Grab / pinch the inside of the biceps arm on two individuals or one individual to get them to stop or help get them under control.  

 

Daltons Rules

Never underestimate opponent, expect the unexpected.

Take it outside- never start anything in the location, unless its absolutely necessary

Be nice - treat others with respect.

 

To get someone outside bar: ask for their id and walk outside with their ID, ask to speak to them outside where you can hear them

 

Do not use unreasonable force for the purpose of criminal liability, civil liability, perceptions, injuries, costs.

 

When Incidents occur -

Never engage anyone alone

Try to have management present,

Use police as a resource,

Document event, witness, subjects

Remain calm

 

Suggests pepper spray is not a good nonlethal way to deal with individuals in nightclubs. -can affect other patrons in club.

 

Is it legal to confiscate a bad or borrowed identification?

-depends on the state, you can hold the ID and tell person you are going to contact authorities, but give them a receipt, it could be card with info written on back

 

Can you accept a license from Mexico?

You can choose not to or honor it.

 

A ABC violation defense

-you can take the following forms of identification, a driver’s license, state identification card, military id, us passport, alcohol purchase card, federal id card. 

 

You can have a policy that says that you check all IDs of people who appear to look under 30. 

 

You don't have to legally check every person's ID.
