Course Description
**Cartel Traps Hidden Compartment Training** is a comprehensive one-day classroom course designed to give law enforcement officers the knowledge and techniques needed to conduct more thorough and effective vehicle searches.
The course takes officers beyond a basic vehicle search by teaching them **how to systematically identify and clear the natural voids found throughout a vehicle**, recognize indicators of aftermarket modifications, and detect sophisticated hidden compartments used to conceal narcotics, currency, weapons, and other contraband.
Students will learn how to recognize **tooling, tampering, dimensional inconsistencies, non-factory construction, electronic and manual access systems, and other indicators of concealment.** The course breaks down hidden compartments throughout the entire vehicle, including floors, firewalls, rocker panels, dashboards, center consoles, roofs, trunks, cargo areas, engine compartments, and other commonly exploited locations.
Real-world photographs, videos, case studies, and detailed trap-car breakdowns are used throughout the course to show students exactly what these compartments look like and, more importantly, **how to recognize the indicators that lead to their discovery.**
From commonly overlooked natural voids to highly sophisticated electronically operated compartments, Cartel Traps provides officers with a systematic approach to vehicle searching that can be immediately applied in the field.
**Clear the Voids. Know what factory looks like. Stop missing traps.**
*Training restricted to sworn law enforcement personnel.*

Student Feedback
Jeremy did a great job of using videos as demonstrations for this class. Using real videos and situations is very helpful. I strongly recommend this class!
Great class presented by Jeremy! Very educational and informative on what to look for in vehicles.
Great class for law enforcement especially those that want to be proactive
Excellent class
I wish I had this kind of training at the beginning of my career! Solid training, great instruction.
Lots of great information. Took a lot away from this class
Great presenter! Great training and content!
I thought the class was very informative & the instructor is very knowledgeable. There is so much more than a basic search that is very often overlooked. I’m looking forward to putting these new learned skills into action.
Course is a great to enhance vehicles searches.
I’ve impatiently waited for this course since it was posted. My expectations of this class was very high. I can honestly say that Jeremy’s knowledge and ability to teach tactics/techniques in order to identify and access traps exceeded…
