Firstly I want to thank Blue to Gold and Jessica Walsh for volunteering her time which allowed for this class to be free. This class exceeded my expectations because I gained more knowledge than if I was to just read the BTG books myself . Jessica was personable, funny and I stayed engaged the whole time. I learned more about (4th amend) search and seizure and report writing than I have in previous courses all within a matter of 2 days. I highly recommend these courses!! I feel more confident in my knowledge and ability as a law enforcement officer.

Courtroom testimony: GREAT class with a GREAT instructor. Jessica is highly knowledgeable with a lot of experience on this topic. Not only do I feel more prepared to testify in court but I learned so much from her. I liked the fact that we got to see videos of real cases where officers are testifying and after the videos we got to discuss how well or not so well the officers did. I’m glad Jessica became part of the Blue to Hold team. Thanks Jessica!

I met Jessica during Bullet proof report writing class that was held by HIDTA. Normally, I would not write anything about a teacher. However, Jessica is special. Jessica is a type of person you want on your side, whether just to talk as a friend or ask some serious question about the law. She’s witty, highly intelligent and knows her craft. Learned a lot in a short period of time. Thank you!!!

Det. C. Williams

Elko County Sheriff’s Office

I was fortunate to have Jessica assist in instructing the Bulletproof Report Writing class and instruct the Bulletproof Courtroom Testimony class presented by Blue to Gold. As the latter isn’t a class most get outside of the academy, I was grateful for the opportunity to attend. Jessica’s talent in her craft as well as her ability to engage with and captivate her audience was on full display. She was able to place the class inside the courtroom and into the shoes of various officers who were testifying using a combination of videos/scenarios and personal experiences. Her scenario breakdowns and discussions were able to impart a greater understanding of our roles in the courtroom and what to prepare for. If you haven’t been able to, add Jessica and this class to your calendar or you’ll be passing up an amazing opportunity for growth!

WOW! Excellent class from an excellent instructor. Makes me feel wayyyyy better as an officer in general and especially when I take the stand.

Mark Baca

Outstanding course. I always learn something every time I tune into Anthony's free webinars or courses. I also took the Advanced Search & Seizure Traffic Stops course live on-line and thought that was great also.

5

Humberto Martinez

i learned a lot. Its about the minor details, especially when it comes to our line of work

5

Lori Every

I was disappointed when the course ended, and surprised how quickly it seemed to move. Every module contained information that improved my knowledge of search and seizure, and I will watch it again. Great instructor

Todd Colichia

One of the best instructors I've had in my 12 years of being a LEO!

5

Kenneth Bishop

This training was great. It was presented in a way that makes the information extremely understandable. It also made me rethink the way some things are and have been done at my agency in the past. I'm looking forward to taking this information back to my patrol shift to better prepare them to do their jobs in the future.

As a new officer, this course was exactly what I needed (and exactly what my FTO who recommended Blue to Gold described).

I am definitely more confident in my work.

Excellent course. I found it very valuable that you gave examples of both legal and illegal scenarios.

5

Nathan Deherrera

I believe this class is crucial to both the new and veteran officer. The information is provided in an easy to understand method with references you can apply to your duties immediately. I highly recommend this training.

5

Travis Thompson

I loved the way the material was presented in a way that was easy of the "lay-cop" to understand. It was also presented in a way that was easy to remember and apply on scene, in the moment. I consider myself fairly squared away on search and seizure and still considered this class very worth while. So, thank you.

5

Paul Irwin

Great class and very useful. I have taught search and seizure and I enjoyed this class and your books. You are an asset to our profession.

The way the class is laid out and all of the "tests" and points for each principle made everything very intuitive. I appreciated all of the examples and specific ways to apply the instruction for officers.

5

Craig Meyer

This was one of the best courses I have ever taken. It should be a must for every cop out there. Anthony made it extremely easy to comprehend the things he was teaching. He took a topic that is usually very dry when taught and made it engaging and enjoyable.

This topic is used so often and often misunderstood. The course does a great job clearing that up to do be a better officer. You will leave full of knowledge.

5

I. F.

TX

How often do you encounter curriculum with dated case law and it's presented as the latest and greatest? Not this course, the references here are absolutely relevant and up to date as of Oct 2023. (course was taken 5/24). The course was well presented and clearly articulated the material in a manner such that I could work patrol tonight and put the lessons learned into practice. I'll approach curtilage with a newfound appreciation and always bring my C.R.E.W. With me.

This was a great course- building upon principles which everyday officers are enacting. The knowledge gained clarifies the ability and understanding of the “why” officers do certain things, and the “how” to properly do them; avoiding liability and penalty.

Mr. Biggs recently taught the advanced search and seizure class in Gillette, WY and as a whole I think the common opinion of Mr Biggs was "wow, he can teach, and this class is entertaining, informative, and he's a really cool guy." He gave ample examples, was clearly knowledgeable on the subjects and super thorough. He gained everybody's respect in a matter of minutes and I think from here on out we will all think back to this class and what Mr. Biggs taught us throughout our careers. It is rare to find people who are passionate for what they do and that care and especially who can teach the subject well. You have a great instructor and he needed credit where credits was due!

I attended the 8-hour Advanced Search and Seizure class in person. I have attended a lot of outside training and this class was by far the best class I have ever taken. I learned so much more in this class about search and seizure than I did in the police academy. The instructor was professional, engaging, and extremely knowledgeable. I think every patrol officer should take this course.

I thoroughly enjoyed the Advanced Search and Seizure. It is helpful to hear how the cases specifically on premises were explained in court.

Attended the Search and Seizure class in Brighton, CO. This is hands down the best legal training I’ve gotten in 15+ years on Law Enforcement. I feel veteran officers would benefit greatly, as I have, by attending this class.

5

Ryan Thomeczek

Fort Lupton PD
Colorado

Advanced Search and Seizure: the course and instructor were excellent. I’m a self-proclaimed 4th Amendment nerd and place a high value on protecting peoples’ rights. This class gave me a better understanding of some case law I did not have confidence in. In this profession, you need to know the “why” behind your action or inaction and if you are unsure about where your legal authority begins and ends, I recommend this course. Do not trust the old-timers in your agency that have been around for decades. Know current case law and trust yourself and your education. This course is awesome.

5
Colorado

Extremely helpful for a new officer like myself. Provided a lot of clarity for discussions had during the academy.

5

J. S.

Arizona

The course was great because of all the case law review and application to real world scenarios, including those offered by the class. It’s nice to confirm our authority in some grey areas as well as to see how small difference in details can make otherwise similar situations vastly different when it comes to constitutional violations or not.

I recently had the opportunity to attend the search and seizure class, and I must say it was an eye-opening experience. As a supervisor, I found this course invaluable in providing new insights on how to ensure our deputies respect and uphold individuals’ civil rights during law enforcement activities. I firmly believe that this class should be a fundamental part of every deputy’s training within the first year of their career. The instructor’s expertise and teaching style were exceptional. Not only was he highly knowledgeable about the subject matter, but he also managed to make the learning process engaging and entertaining. His approach to the topic kept the class both informative and enjoyable.

I think the quality of the class was good and went in depth with Case Law backed material. Instructor was wonderful and communicated. Questions were answered and attention to students was great. I would've liked a little information on potential issues regarding data and computer/phone devices.

Most legal updates are boring and dry, and death by PowerPoint. John kept me focused, and presented the material appropriately. It was a good refresher, and answered questions I had.

I've always loved Blue to Gold's videos and free classes. I got into them because Bandiero used to work at my agency. I read Nevada Search and Seizure cover to cover a couple times and scored top for detective testing out of around 12 people. Not a lot for most agencies but still significant for us. I attribute that scoring to Blue to Gold's book. I constantly am loaning out my books to people who want to advance themselves and encourage everyone else to get them too. They are a cops biggest tool for in the field and career development. The instructor for this class is super knowledgeable and being that he used to be a cop, makes him relatable to us. Not just some attorney. Online training is tough but he and his team are doing a great job addressing questions from in person and online students.

I just completed the Blue to Gold Traffic Stop and Arrest, Search, and Seizure course at my agency. What an absolutely phenomenonal course. I have learned more in the past two days than I did in my Police Academy. The course content was extremely applicable to our daily tasks on the street. I highly recommend these courses and look forward to taking many more in the near future! Thank you Chris McFarlin!

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.

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.

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.
