Highway Interdiction Training Reviews

Police officers need to attend this class. The information that was provided about how the inner workings (ideology) of multiple organizations was mind blowing. I highly recommend this to every level of law enforcement from patrol to chiefs.

Shaheen Pardazi delivered an outstanding presentation of his Mules & Martyrs class. I was genuinely blown away by how important and relevant this material is. His delivery was sharp, practical, and connected directly to what we deal with on the street. This is hands down the best class I’ve attended in years. Every cop should make it a priority to sit through this course, it’s that good.

Great class, lots of information but it’s delivered with detail. Instructor is great makes the class engaging. Definitely recommend other officers to take this class.

Excellent class. Lots of information . Recommend to all LEOs

Mules and Martyrs was a really eye-opening class that gave me a better understanding of Muslim culture and how it differs from extremist beliefs. It helped clear up a lot of misconceptions and gave practical info on how radicalization happens and what signs to look for. I feel more prepared to spot potential threats while still being respectful and aware of cultural differences. Overall, it was a solid class that made me more confident in handling situations involving possible terrorist activity.

I recently completed Shawn Pardazi’s 24‑hour “Mules & Martyrs” course in Southlake—a timely, critical training that should be mandatory for all Texas law enforcement officers.

In today’s world—marked by ongoing conflicts in Israel, Palestine, Iran, and Syria—understanding the ideological spectrum of Middle Eastern communities is more vital than ever. Recent events have shown how U.S. citizens have been targeted and killed by individuals radicalized into extremist interpretations of Islam. Mr. Pardazi’s curriculum addressed myths, debunked false narratives, and offered a balanced examination of cultural diversity alongside the realities of extremist ideologies.

Prior to the course I had limited knowledge of Middle Eastern cultures; I left with a comprehensive, actionable understanding that I can apply directly in the field. This course delivers far more value than many currently mandated training sessions that lack operational relevance. Highly recommend!

This course provides an outstanding overview of the mindset of a terrorist that is helpful for my work. Great Course

Learned a lot of things from overseas that I didn’t know that existed in the US

Encourage all LEOs to attend.

Great course! All officers should take for intel.

Outstanding class. Something every cop or law enforcement officer should attend. In this day and age is very necessary information.

Awesome class! I think this class is a must for all police officers, no matter you experience or title.

Mules & Martyrs’ Drug Interdiction & Counter-Terrorism class is the most authentic, no-nonsense training I’ve taken. No sugar-coated theory just field-proven insight delivered by an instructor whose real-world wins frame every slide. Over two focused days we learned how to craft questions that pierce cover stories, tell a genuine threat from a hopeful recruit, and read the cultural currents driving radicalization. There were no staged exercises, yet the vivid operational examples street interviews, border checkpoints, post-blast debriefs made each tactic stick. Every lesson ties to actual seizures, arrests, or foiled plots, giving you methods ready for tonight’s shift. If your agency wants results, not academic fluff, book this course and watch your team’s interdiction IQ jump overnight.

This class was extremely informative and was mind blowing. Will recommend to fellow officers.

Great examples of real life hidden compartments found while on patrol.

Jeremy was a solid instructor with good enthusiasm throughout the entire class. I was glad he hit on slight interdiction tactics as well as very in depth hidden compartment findings. The body can and real live videos that were added to the curriculum was a great addition.

Awesome, credible, ethical training on traps, and good review of interview techniques.

Been doing this job for 15 years and in those 15 years I’ve only been getting personal amount of dope. This class has taught me to search vehicles and to look in areas I’ve never thought to look.

Great class

Very well put together class.

Great breakdown of all different areas of vehicles

Phenomenal class and instructor that has a plethora of knowledge on the subject. Tons of unknown voids that I was unaware of before this class.
Highly recommend!

This class was motivating. Makes you realize how much you are missing when you search a car

Instructor Bedingfield was great. Very informative and explained what to look for making it easy to understand.

Great course! Jeremy made the class interesting and easy to see the contrast between cars with traps vs cars without. I have no doubt this training will help me and my department with locating traps.

Great class, great instruction, and great teaching.

Great class.

This was super informative! Learning some of the most basic "clues" to notice helped me realize how simple it can be to find the compartments.

I've taken a few interdiction and trap classes and this is probably the top class which does not have hands on. Great organization as well.

Great class
