In 1975, Sheriff Dub Lawrence founded his county’s first SWAT team. Thirty-three years later, he stood by as that very same SWAT team killed his son-in-law, propelling him on a crusade to hold police accountable for appropriate use of force. 

Directors Scott Christopherson and Brad Barber take a close look at police militarization in their documentary, "Peace Officer."
