Unverified Persons & Trespass Response

Start with observation and a respectful plan. Identify the person’s location, behavior, stated purpose, and immediate risk. Verify authorization through approved channels; do not rely on appearance, rumor, or a badge viewed from a distance. FIELD PRACTICE For trespass-response work, verify the boundary and authorization, use calm lawful contact, create distance when needed, escalate unclear authority, and document statements and outcomes. Use a concrete field example from the course domain without including unnecessary personal data. FIELD CHECK • Separate verified facts from reports, assumptions, and recommendations. • Preserve safety, privacy, evidence, and a clear handoff. • Escalate unresolved risk through the designated channel and record who was notified.
