A criminal justice program instructor will be giving a lecture today that’s free and open to the public at Centralia College on police misconduct and excessive force.
Professor Gregory Gilbertson is a licensed private investigator, international police trainer and nationally recognized expert witness in police practices and procedures, according to the college. He is currently consulting with criminal defense and civil rights attorneys as an expert witness on over 30 active cases in 14 states.
Gilbertson will share his experience and perspective on what he describes as the epidemic of police misconduct and police excessive force cases currently plaguing our nation. He will also share insights and strategies on how to effectively interact with law enforcement officers in adversarial situations by explaining our fundamental rights and responsibilities under the 1st, 4th, 5th, 6th, and 8th Amendments to the United States Constitution.
The lecture is part of the college’s Spring Lyceum series.
The event will be held in Washington Hall Room 103 and runs from 1 p.m. until 1:50 p.m.

Hey Steve,
If you truly feel that you have something to say to me why don’t you meet me someplace and we can settle this like two men. Put up or shut up
To ignorant to understand? Understand what? That you’re a horrible person and said you were happy that one of our local Police Officers died? Or that you hate your community and obviously your Country?
OH YA!! #BOTONORTHKOREA
Oh don’t worry I don’t intend on giving up anytime soon! People like Steve are just too ignorant to understand
Bo , keep up the good work! Steve you sound like liberal trash?
Anyone else think Rupert should should be deported to North Korea??
Police officers do commit crimes of misconduct. Not only do they do it on the job, but they do it in their personal lives. Police officers are only human.
That being said, police officers must be held to a higher account than the regular Joe. Unfortunately, in Lewis County, and in other municipals, police officers are often in bed (so to speak) with judges and other court officials who look the other way or who excuse bad police behavior. There are police officers who brag about knowing certain court commissioners and those police officers know that no matter what they do, they will never be held accountable for their bad behavior. These criminals ruin the lives of ex wives/husbands/girlfriends/boyfriends because they can, especially with the help of our court system.
Most police officers do their job, go home to their families and live a respectable life. The few who are monsters are the ones who ruin it for everyone.
I would have to have one first.
FO RUPERT OR I’ll tell your probation officer!! LOL
Well I sure am going to call you a punk, because you can talk this crap on here every, but you aren’t man enough to say it to my face.
YOU’RE GOING TO CALL SOMEONE A PUNK?? TOUGH WORDS FROM A LYING CRIMINAL AND CONVICTED FELON!!
Make me punk!
STFU BO RUPERT!! YOU DAMN IDIOT!!
I can’t believe it takes a professor to reiterate to all of you what I have been saying all along for the past 7 years!
His background seems legit, but beware the title of “Professor”.
82% of Law Professors are Democrats, and 98% of Democrats are Liberal Idiots!

This is an excellent idea. Certainly hope he covers how to deal with mentally ill and drug effected people since that is a fair percentage of who the police must deal with.
