Description

When is police use of force justified? Is a police officer protected from liability for harm he causes due to errors in judgment? (And a bit of an added note re preservation of law and preservation of the peace, from Shemuel I 13-14: Yonatan's trial and exoneration or pardon.) Geared toward a group including people without extensive background in Torah text study.
