The Wrap - Thomasville police train on different type of restraint system

THOMASVILLE, Ga. (WALB) - Thomasville police officers recently trained on a different kind of restraint system. This wrap body restraint system is something Public Information Officer Corpl. Crystal Parker said is not used every day, but it’s really used as a last resort. “Regular handcuffs, you know that’s the first thing that we use to bring somebody under control, and the vast majority of people, once they’re in the cuffs, they’re compliant and not causing a problem,” said Parker. Parker said officers were recently trained on using the wrap body restraint system, which is only used when handcuffs aren’t enough.
