In this episode of the Pocket Sergeant podcast, Paul Cooper sits down with Joanne Caffrey, a nationally respected expert witness in police custody and safer detention.
Joanne shares her compelling journey from her early years as a frontline officer to becoming a sought-after authority in police procedures. She opens up about facing bullying and discrimination within the police service, and how those experiences shaped her mission to improve policing from the outside in.
From discussing the PIP Level 1 evolution, to explaining the often-misunderstood intoxilizer process, Joanne gives a deep dive into the real-world impact of flawed training, poor disclosure practices, and lack of contextual understanding in frontline policing. She also talks about the emotional toll officers face, the critical need for mental health support, and her work writing a book to demystify custody procedures.
This is essential viewing for anyone interested in law, policing reform, criminal justice, or expert witness work—and offers valuable insight into the gender dynamics, training gaps, and legal challenges still present in modern policing.
