Upon Asst.

Lassen Peak's advisory committee consists of nationally recognized experts to address critically important issues such as civil rights, law enforcement policy and procedure, and key community perspectives as they relate to the introduction of Lassen Peak's upcoming products.The committee will provide insight and guidance into the methods and application of Lassen Peak's ground-breaking concealed weapon detection technology throughout its development, currently targeted for introduction to law enforcement departments and agencies in 2023.

Assistant Sheriff McCurdy states, "Lassen Peak's approach will broadly prepare law enforcement and private security agencies for a new process of detecting concealed threats without the contentious hands-on physical contact of the past.This is a new opportunity for officers and patrol individuals to take pause and consider the necessity of close quarter contact, potentially reducing dangerous altercations and injury."

Lassen Peak Chairman of the Board and CEO, Hatch Graham, states "Greg's range and diversity in public safety stems from decades of law enforcement combined with best practices at major private sports, entertainment, and gaming venues.Add to this his social justice awareness as a member of the National Organization of Black Law Enforcement Executives and his technology competence as an affiliate of a leading first-responder communication network, and we gain the insight of an expert of all phases of public safety."

Lassen Peak is developing handheld technology that will allow highly accurate weapon detection to be conducted anywhere in the field, at a reasonably safe distance, and without physical contact – all while providing safeguards that protect civil rights and privacy, and while offering a path to a greater level of accountability than today's manual concealed weapons searches.
