Welcome to the Law Enforcement Officers Advocates Council and our website. LEOAC was founded in
2008 with the primary objective of educating the public concerning duties, responsibilities, and effectiveness of federal law enforcement officers
and operations in national security. We also advocate for our officers defending America today.
It is through your generous contributions that LEOAC is able to provide technical, financial, and legal support of law enforcement agents/officers
and unlike donations made to many unions or groups, donations to LEOAC are 100% tax deductible due to our 501c3 tax-exempt status as approved by the IRS. Furthermore, we provide support to all law enforcement officers engaged in their duties regardless of agency or union affiliation.
Below, you can learn about our mission, and some of our programs and activities, our updated organizational goals, and how we serve as law enforcement
advocates. We don't advocate other issues that have nothing to do with national/border security and then ask you for a donation by bandwagoning on a single issue where security or agents are occasionally mentioned. Also, we don't ask you to donate to us because we offer fax forms/report cards, or an occasional media focused lobby event. We specialize in assisting law enforcement whistleblowers fighting trumped up charges by incompetent managers to discredit officers exposing security compromises. We also expose internal government corruption, and directly speak on behalf of the agents, deputies, officers, and troopers defending America.
Keep in mind that we cannot operate and assist America's officers, or expose security compromises without your generous contributions. America's officers need to do their jobs without obstruction or intimidation from the Johnny Sutton's of the world. However, they cannot do their jobs or blow the whistle without independent public advocates who are not employed by the same agency. We don't have a labor pool of employees paying dues maintaining our efforts. As a result, it makes your help even more imperative for us to continue our work. We think you'll agree, LEOAC works and fills a need no one else does, which benefits law enforcement and our communities.
LEOAC's Mission
LEOAC is a non-profit organization dedicated to the support of law enforcement officers at all levels of government throughout the country.
LEOAC serves the law enforcement community in many ways, working with legislative and administrative bodies from the State House to the White House, advocating where possible and litigating where necessary:
We advise those who write the laws about ways to improve them for the safety and efficiency not only of those who enforce them, but also impact the general public,
We defend law enforcement officers who are wrongfully disciplined or prosecuted, conducting independent investigations and exposing misconduct, whether managerial or prosecutorial, through the media,
We educate the public as to the duties and responsibilities of law enforcement agencies and officers, and the importance of public cooperation with them in the performance of their duties,
We do not provide the public specific operational details that could compromise law enforcement activities, including national security, though we do provide such details to legislative bodies that have oversight responsibility as well as other law enforcement agencies, and
We promote cooperative interaction between law enforcement officers of various federal, state, and local departments, building mutual respect through personal contact.
We support better border security & the enforcement of immigration laws at all levels of government, local, state, & federal.
LEOAC's 2011 Goals
Advocating for Border Patrol Agent Jesus E. Diaz, Jr who was prosecuted by the In-Justice Dept for doing his job.
Raising public awareness of the plight of law enforcement officers defending America today.
Raising public awareness about the organization, which will assist in raising money to fund operations and charitable activities.
Providing for law enforcement officers who seek our support, determining how we can best assist them, whether through a charitable contribution, advice, counseling, or technical support.
Identifying internal corruption within Federal Departments and Agencies, including National Security Compromises.
Establishing a database of government cases involving law enforcement officers to better educate officers' and the public.
How We Utilize Your Contributions
As officers have been told over the years, Government Attorneys have budgets providing millions of dollars, while the officers can only pay so much before losing everything, including name, possessions, reputation, and even their freedom. Here is how we use contributions to help our officers:
Legal Defense & Relief Fund - which can pay attorney fees and costs for investigations, depositions, court transcripts, appeals, and more, including financial relief of agent, and even families dealing with unforeseen expenses arising from questionable prosecutions, administrative terminations, and injuries suffered in the line of duty.
Widows & Orphans Fund - which provides financial assistance to the families of agents and officers killed in the line of duty.
Field Investigations - which identifies, exposes, and reports internal corruption and national security compromises to the appropriate legislative oversight committees. Investigations are conducted by our experienced professionals many of whom are attorneys and retired federal agents.
Meetings with Agencies and Legislative Bodies - which allows us to meet with Congress, Federal Departments, and other bodies and advise them as to the critical issues America is confronted with each day.
LEOAC General Fund - internal operating budget, which assists with the day to day operational costs of an organization.
How LEOAC Advocates For Law Enforcement
LEOAC is unlike other organizations law enforcement issues. We are a multifaceted non-partisan, non-profit organization, which assists law enforcement officers regardless of agency, or union affiliation. We assist "whistle blowers" in disclosing critical information; aid in providing attorneys to agents who are subjects of questionable prosecutions, or being terminated from their positions; conduct extensive information gathering and analysis, determine case merit; and speak authoritatively on law enforcement issues. Law enforcement officers being prosecuted or terminated, as well as their counsels have asked us to review cases, but we have never been asked by government counsels outside of Congressional Committees or Members. Such cases include US vs. Robert Rhodes, vs. David Sipe, vs. Ramos and Compean, among others. We support law enforcement agencies, and strive to present both sides of a case, or issue. However, it is not always possible to present such "balance" when the government violates more laws than the officer being terminated or prosecuted as the above cases became quite noted for.
LEOAC's officers have briefed and testified before Congressional committees, prepared position papers, and spoken publicly regarding the situation facing national security professionals. Our organization relies, in significant part, on a network of current and former law enforcement officers as well as specialists in the area of federal labor and employee relations, and attorneys assisting their LEO clients.
Many organizations claim to help America's officers, or investigate national security. LEOAC's board, counsels, and advisors have a proven record, which can be confirmed by reading our bios. Our team is primarily made up of federal law enforcement professionals who have served in agencies such as Border Patrol, Customs, DEA, ICE, and other agencies. You can directly help America's officers under siege by our own government today. Support our work and say today, "Yes, I am a friend of law enforcement!"
