Session Spotlight: Investigating Force in the 21st Century
Introduction to Human Factors

This course provides a foundational understanding of how perceptual, cognitive, and physiological limitations affect officer performance during high-stress encounters. Participants will learn how these human factors influence decision-making, memory, and behavior.

These insights are critical for conducting fair, accurate, and context-driven use-of-force investigations that reflect the realities officers face in dynamic situations.

The Tega Cay Police Department is experiencing the heartbreaking loss of one of our own, Lieutenant Lauren Galloway.

Today LT. Galloway, a 12-year veteran of the Tega Cay Police Department, passed away after a long battle with cancer. Lauren was a leader, a mentor and a provider to our department. She was so kind to everyone and served the citizens of Tega Cay selflessly. The men and women of the Tega Cay Police Department are trying to comprehend and and endure one of the most difficult chapters in our Departments’ history.

We have received many inquiries asking how people can donate to support LT. Galloway’s family. If you would like to place flowers or memorials at the Police Department, please do so safely at the rock located in front of the station along Tega Cay Drive.

Arrangements and service for LT. Galloway will be announced soon. Please keep Lauren’s family and friends in your prayers. LT. Lauren Galloway will be missed.
