Who trains Texas police and sheriffs? A state agency is taking a closer look after questions raised in an NBC 5 Investigation. “I can't speak for why action wasn't taken then, but I can say when we had the opportunity to listen to these now, it gave us the chance to evaluate this under the standards that we have,” Beauchamp said.
TCOLE found,"… there is no meaningful authority cited supporting these proposed legal theories." The agency notified the CSPOA in a letter ,"… similar content will not merit TCOLE training credit in the future."Right now, TCOLE only vets the curriculum for state-mandated law enforcement courses. Elective classes are vetted just at the local level by state-licensed training academies at police and sheriff’s departments.
In a statement to NBC 5, Richard Mack called TCOLE’s investigation findings,"… inaccurate and misleading." TCOLE also expressed concerns about Mack's legal teaching, saying in its investigation,"…the events invite Texas law enforcement officers to step into the roles of court and lawmaker because they are 'empowered to say what the law is.’"
