TLP 414 – Dr. Jean Kanokogi, Tony Vergnetti, First Tactical & Bush Protective

We are back, fresh from our Rhode Island trip to cover the 2021 Federal Law Enforcement Officers Association‘s National Conference. To kick off our series of interviews from FLEOA‘s Nat Con. Lefty has Dr. Jean Kanokogi (Senior Special Agent for the U.S. Government)  & Tony Vergnetti (FEDS Protection Services) on to talk about the recently House and Senate passed bill (now waiting on the President) S. 1502 COPS (Confidentiality Opportunities for Peer Support) Counseling Act. Also in this episode we have John Rivosa with First Tactical on to talk about their newest line of duty wear and bags and Carl Lorio with Busch Protective to tell us about their innovations in head protection systems

*S.1502 COPS Counseling Act does the following in promoting/encouraging mental health among the LE community (among other things):

  • generally prohibits the disclosure of the contents of a peer support communication, and
  • requires the Department of Justice to develop best practices and professional standards for peer support counseling programs.
