SSIS Florida Operations has secured two new Security accounts and continue to grow the business

SSIS has begun updating the web page to include information on all the states they currently have licenses to perform Security Guard work in.

(NEWSER) Joshua Kosatschenko was approved for a security guard license to carry arms in 2009 in Arizona. He was 19 at the time, but he was also a "prohibited possessor"meaning he wasn't allowed to carry a gun until he turned 30 because of his juvenile recordand the state of Arizona didn't check a federal database with that info, nor juvie records, before issuing the license. Kosatschenko ended up shooting and paralyzing an unarmed 18-year-old during a convenience store in...cident just six weeks after being licensed. The story is just one of many that CNN and the Center for Investigative Reporting uncovered during a yearlong investigation into training standards for armed guards in the US. Highlights: In 15 states, no firearms training is required for the armed guard license. In other states the training still doesn't seem to match the responsibility of the jobCNN notes that in California an armed guard needs 54 hours of training overall (14 of those hours in firearms), while a manicurist in that same state must complete 400 hours of training to be licensed. Federal training standards for armed guards are nonexistent, as is a countrywide listing of guards who shoot or misuse their weapons. Mental health exams, standard for police officers, are completed on armed guard contenders in just four states. Background checks seem lax: CNN and CIR found there were guards with criminal rap sheets for drug and alcohol offenses and domestic violence. In some cases, ex-law enforcement employees who had had major discipline issues in their former careers easily transitioned into armed security roles. The study discovered that 27 states don't check if guard applicants are federally prohibited from carrying arms like Joshua Kosatschenko was; nine states don't bother getting an FBI criminal-background check. Read more about the investigation and watch the second half tonight on CNN's Anderson Cooper 360 at 8pm EST. [Images (1)] Videos (1)

Appears to be open season on Law Enforcement across the nation

CAPITOL HEIGHTS, M.d. (WJLA) - 5 years ago Adrian Kinard lost his 17-year-old brother Joseph Sharps Jr., an honor roll student and athlete at Spingarn High in Washington DC, to gun violence. Continue reading Family members say that moment inspired Kinard to dedicate his profession life to protecting and serving others. They say he earned a college degree in criminal justice and was proud of his work as an armed security guard at Central Gardens Apartments in Capitol Heights, ...Maryland. They also say Kinard was only weeks away from taking the entrance exam to become a Prince George's County police officer when he was shot and killed while on the job. Police say it happened last Friday at around 1 a.m. They say Kinard and another security guard were filling out paperwork when ambushed. They say his partner survived the shooting. Kinard did not. And Lord God we just come to you Lord God that justice will be served Lord God," prays Kinard's sister Ashanti Sharps. Thursday night family and friends held a candlelight vigil for Adrian Kinard in the very parking lot where he lost his life. It’s just very upsetting. Adrian did not deserve this. He was such a lovable person," says Kinard's fiance Virginia Arausa. Kinard's mother Cynthia says her son was a goodhearted man. "This is heartbreaking. He was good, good young man, respectable. He loved people," says his mother. Cynthia Kinard says her family, once again shattered by the specter of violence, will now focus on justice as they did 5 years ago. In 2012 20 year old Kwam Kearney was sentenced to 60 years in prison for killing Adrian Kinard's little brother Joseph Sharps Jr. Now their hope is that justice will again be served for a family once again in mourning. Arausa says, I just beg anyone that knows any information to please come forward. We need to bury Adrian in peace.
