The men and women of the National Troopers

and heartfelt thoughts to those that were senselessly

 

killed in Newtown, Connecticut - a terrible tragedy,

 

unthinkable and difficult to understand.

 

 

 

We are also thinking of our brother and sister

 

Connecticut State Troopers who have responded to,

 

are investigating this horrible crime, and are providing

 

solace and comfort to those families and the

 

community at large.  God Bless.

“As our economy continues to struggle, law enforcement resources are being stretched.  State Troopers and Highway Patrol Officers are being asked to fill the gaps of local police departments and investigative divisions are being cut to simply maintain patrol coverage.  State Troopers and Highway Patrol Officers are our front-line safety net to prevent terrorism and maintain public order. 

 

This is a failed experiment.  You cannot 'Do more with less' in Law Enforcement......What the sequestration does is demonize your public safety.  We are now being asked to do more with nothing."

BODY ARMOR ALERT 

 

On November 26, 2011, Phoenix Police Department Officer Anthony Daley #9190, was shot and seriously wounded while on-duty. Although Officer Daley was wearing a ballistic vest, a .40 caliber round penetrated the full thickness of the Kevlar material approximately 3/8 of an inch (20mm) above the lower left front panel edge of the vest.   

 

In response to concerns of a potential vest failure, the Phoenix Law Enforcement Association (PLEA) arranged for independent testing of a ballistic vest of the same brand, threat level, model number, lot number, and manufacture date as Officer Daley's vest.

 

Officer Daley's vest was identified as follows:

 

Manufacturer: Custom Armor Technologies

- Threat Level: IIIA

- Model Number: QVA-3A-1

- Serial Number: 03005357

          Lot Numbers: 400010122119 and 1000076399

- Manufacture Date: May 12, 2008

 

In cooperation with the Phoenix Police Department, PLEA made arrangements with Oregon Ballistic Laboratories to conduct testing on a ballistic vest of the exact brand, threat level, model number, and lot number as the ballistic vest Officer Daley was wearing when he was shot. Upon hearing the circumstances and because of their concern for the safety of officers, Oregon Ballistic Laboratories agreed to conduct the test at no cost.

 

On February 16, 2012 Oregon Ballistic Laboratories conducted a test on the supplied ballistic vest using standard National Institute of Justice, NIJ, protocol with the following results:

 

Using a 44 magnum, the NIJ standard for a level IIIA vest, at a distance of 16.5 feet, there was one complete penetration and the projectile was not recovered.

 

In addition, there were two other .40 caliber rounds that failed the Back Face Deformation, BFD test maximum of 44mm. One was at 46.31mm and the other at 51.19mm. This relates to blunt force trauma injuries as a result of being shot where the round did not penetrate the vest.

 

According to a press release on Friday, Arizona DPS stated at least 56 officers within the agency have body armor manufactured by Custom Armor Technologies. 

 

AHPA is encouraging every officer to examine his or her body armor to determine if it is manufactured by Custom Armor Technologies.
