Hello,

My name is Jacob Metzger. I work for the Ohio Department of Rehabilitation and Corrections. I am sending this e-mail in regards to a scared straight type of program I want to start at my institution. I was hoping someone might have some kind of resource that could help me with legal issues, liability issues and solutions to each of those. I was also wanting to inquire as to see if anyone knew of any other agency I could contact to get some ideas. If you could get back with me I would really appreciate it. Thank you for your time.

I have to create an SOP (Standard Operating Procedure) for my college Corrections class. It is to be over “Seat belts in jail vans for driver and prisoner; Not handicaps”. That is the only information that my professor said. I’ve done two other SOP’s over different topics, so I’m fully aware of how to do it. My problem is that I am having the most difficult time finding information regarding actual procedure use from any law enforcement. I have searched the internet looking for anything that can give me some suggestions of what to write other than “Seat belts shall be worn at all times”.

Do you know of any websites or references that would be beneficial to me?
