Legal Observer (LO)

Legal observers are trained of a program who attend public demonstrations, protests and other events where there may be a potential for conflict or interactions between the public and the police or other law enforcement officers (LEO).

Their purpose is to monitor, record and report any unlawful or improper behavior by LEOs. The presence of LOs can be a deterrent to this behavior.
