Rescue seminar stresses hostage ethics and Iran crisis
Sgt. Sanford Suffin of the St. Louis Police hostage unit warned that rescuing hostages in Iran would be vastly more complex and risky. He said killing either hostage or hostage taker is a fault, and doubted rescue is humanly possible given unfamiliar crowds. The seminar at Rend Lake College drew about 33 law enforcement officials and runs next Saturday with a $35 charge for both sessions.
