on Officer-Involved Domestic Violence and Human Trafficking

Tennessee

Tennessee has a model policy for civilian domestic violence, but Tennessee does not have a stand-alone officer-involved domestic violence policy. Tennessee’s civilian policy makes only a brief reference to officer-involved domestic violence. The reference merely states that a supervisor will be called to the scene when an officer is involved.
