In 18 years of law enforcement, I have been through a few classes. As an instructor, I have also taught a few. John is a first class instructor. The content was informative, and applicable to the laws of our state. John is definitely an expert in his field. From the newest Officer, to the oldest, all of us came away better informed and capable to do our jobs better.

I had the pleasure of being taught by John from Blue to Gold during a recent training session held in Greer, South Carolina. He covered several critical topics, including Report Writing, Search and Seizure, and Courtroom Testimony. John's extensive knowledge and expertise were evident throughout the course. I particularly enjoyed his sessions on courtroom testimony, which were enriched with new material from a recent national court case, providing us with up-to-date and relevant insights. What truly stood out was John's dedication to the officers in the class. He was always willing to take the time to answer questions, even those that were off-topic, ensuring that we fully understood the subject matter. His approachable demeanor and willingness to go the extra mile made the learning experience both informative and enjoyable. Overall, John's teaching was exceptional, and I highly recommend Blue to Gold’s training sessions to any law enforcement officer looking to deepen their understanding of the law and strengthen their career skills.

John Wiehn is a great instructor. This was one of the best courses I’ve taken as a LEO. It was informative and very relevant. Instead of putting us to sleep with PowerPoint, John was able to keep it lively and interactive. I really liked how he taught the Federal Law and the State Law.

I took Advanced Search and Seizure and Advanced Traffic Stops with John. As we all know, Washington state is very restrictive with police affairs. John dove deep into case law to provide Officers with more tools, and dispel commonly accepted beliefs regarding WA laws. And he did so in a fun and captivating manner. You can tell that John is knowledgeable and passionate about his job. Every self-respected LEO needs to take these courses — even the salty vets who may think they know it all. Thanks again John. I look forward to your next class in WA.

Great Job!

I attended the advanced search and seizure course with John Wiehn. He did a great job explaining different case laws to us and making sure we had an understanding of everything he was teaching us. Every law enforcement professional should take this course. We are all one call away from being case law ourselves and this course will protect you from that. Even though John is an attorney he keeps the class interesting and encourages questions as he was a cop himself not that long ago.

I took the 4-day session including Search & Seizure, Traffic Stops/Searches, Search Warrants, and Interviews & Interrogations, and I honestly was not prepared for how much I had to learn. Being in law enforcement for 10 years and still having so many questions makes me wish I had access to or knew about this training earlier on, however I am grateful that I had the chance to take these courses! The topics are clear and relevant, the instructor (John) was relatable, funny, and extremely knowledgeable, and he was able to answer any outstanding questions I had. I am much more confident in these areas and have a greater understanding of the legal responsibilities I have in this profession and am very grateful that this training is available! VERY highly recommended!

I really enjoyed what the class had to offer. The report writing classes I’ve had are no more than 2 hours long and this was really in-depth. This class also explained the legality side of how your report can cause you to have a hard day in court. I learned a ton and hope to share everything I learned with my agency and fellow Deputies. John was also very knowledgeable and made a report writing class entertaining! I would recommend the classes and knowledge Blue to Gold has to offer to every agency in the U.S.!

Bulletproof Report Writing


Bulletproof Report Writing is primarily focused on training officers the required articulation skills that will help them construct legally defensible police reports. Officers need to produce detailed and solid statements on encounters that allow prosecutors to charge defendants without asking for follow-up information. The key ingredient is the power to articulate and officers will learn this vital skill. (Book included with each registration: Bulletproof Report Writing)

I attended the Bullet Proof Report Writing course in Henderson this week. Having never bought into the bare minimum amount of training per year, I have invested good deal of my free time taking courses over the last 30 years. I found the recent course in Henderson to one , if not the best organized and best presented, I have ever taken. I felt my time was well vested. I look forward to trying out some of the webinars next.

Great courses, great instructor. A lot of good information has been given to me that I will take back with me and apply them in the field. Would definitely recommend blue to gold to any LEO.

The book was filled with knowledge to help and understand the class and further my skills to write. The class was more based on the 4th amendment than being a better report writer.

I enjoyed all the classes by Blue To Gold so far! The deep dive into how our legal system interprets our actions and how we can better explain our actions is literal gold. The understanding the classes teach leads to a better application of the law and thus a better understanding of it as well. I hope to see more classes from Blue to Gold offered to my agency and fellow officers in Colorado.

I recently attended a Bulletproof report writing class that exceeded my expectations. The class was not only informative but also engaging and enjoyable. The instructor’s knowledge and ability to keep us engaged was remarkable. His humor added an extra layer of enjoyment to the learning experience. I’ve gained valuable insights and skills that I’m eager to bring back to my division. Highly recommended!

The way this class was taught and presented needs to be in the academy. This should be required training for Feild Training Officers teaching Officers In Training how to write reports. I had report write explained in so many different ways that I struggled to write clear and concise reports. This class is going to help improve greatly!

5

Report writing....I think this class had a lot of great information related to report writing. The information was easy to comprehend. I think there was a decent amount of search and seizure topics, maybe some of that can be scaled back. The book is a cherry on top! Thank you!

I just completed report writing and really good presentation and made me more confident writing a report and helped me know what to write and what the prosecutors are looking for. After finishing this class, I realized I left a lot of “meat off the bone” on reports and surprised I haven’t been called to court with my lack of detail in my reports. Thank you BLUE TO GOLD
