Steve IjamesGUEST
And so Barry Resnick and Taser Tron.
Steve IjamesGUEST
So you had these two Taser technologies kinda competing, ultimately suing each other and stuff like that.
Steve IjamesGUEST
But I was at IACP in, in '98, walking the halls at the vendor show, and they both had booths, and I'm talking to both of them.
Mo McGoughGUEST
So that was his sort of OG nerdness.
Mo McGoughGUEST
But I remember I was at an IACP.
Mo McGoughGUEST
It was my first IACP in 2012.
Mo McGoughGUEST
And there was this sprint research awards that were happening.
Mo McGoughGUEST
Jeff Alpert and his team won for something.
Mo McGoughGUEST
And so I had the opportunity to connect with Jeff afterwards, and I was just sort of pointing out, you know, just the remarkableness of somebody like Renee getting this work done.
Mo McGoughGUEST
And in his experience, he found that when he was partnering with research agencies, there was always one or two officers who had gotten their master's or were independently going after their PhD who really saw the unique value of empirical evidence in affecting their public safety mission.
Mo McGoughGUEST
And so Jeff and I, it's always dangerous when you're with Jeff at an IACP, he's got a lot of ideas, right? So we sort of joined forces and proposed something to Greg Ridgeway, who was the director at the time, and it started as very simple.
Ben HaimanGUEST
We do that through our state liaisons, individuals that represent individual states and help connect with all the various great work and state associations that are happening.
Ben HaimanGUEST
We do that through partnerships with national organizations like Nolly and Noble, as well as IACP and other organizations where we show up and really create that space unique for professional staff members.
Ben HaimanGUEST
While they might be part of other organizations, this organization is really different because it is the space for those professional staff members to be with peers from across the country and really to have a support network in some part.
Ben HaimanGUEST
We know that public safety organizations are represented anywhere between 20% and 30%.
Kristen ZimanHOST
Okay.
Kristen ZimanHOST
So I don't know anything about that, how it started, and I had just gotten on the board of the, uh, International Association of Chiefs of Police, and it was my very first conference as a board member.
Kristen ZimanHOST
And I didn't know anyone, and I think we were in Alexandria, Virginia.
Kristen ZimanHOST
And I walk into this big conference room, and I see in the corner someone who's literally doing this to me.
Barry FriedmanGUEST
And when they come and they show you, you know, the show and tell, it's like, well, that's really cool.
Barry FriedmanGUEST
I was on the floor of the International Association of Chiefs of Police.
Barry FriedmanGUEST
They have this incredible, you know, exposition hall and you sort of wander around and get shown all the new stuff that's coming.
Barry FriedmanGUEST
And it's all like, wow.
Tom WeitzelGUEST
You don't want that to stop, right? But...
Tom WeitzelGUEST
You know, I read an article in the International Chiefs of Police put out an article that every single day an average American is on camera 200 times between ATMs, parking lots, malls, shopping, grocery stores, 200 times every 24 hours you're on camera.
Tom WeitzelGUEST
We better do our hair.
Tom WeitzelGUEST
And I told you, when I was still a detective, we were pulling IPAS information.

Cherylynn LeeGUEST
So IACP, International Association of Chiefs of Police, the FOP, Fraternal Order of Police, and some other large organizations have done some vetting already.
Cherylynn LeeGUEST
And so that would be another place to look.
Cherylynn LeeGUEST
