Trinity Badge 210x300 Indianapolis Security ServicesTrinity Executive Services, Inc. continues to be one of the top-rated security services providers in Indiana.  While many companies have been unable to weather this most recent recession, Trinity Executive Services has emerged stronger than ever.

In a recent interview the President of Trinity Executive Services, Inc., Brandon Stone, had this to say about their continued success, “Since 1994, Trinity has always provided the best service at the most competitive price.  However, when the recession hit, we had to make some concessions.  These included among other things: foregoing annual rate increases, fewer office personnel, less discretionary spending and pay cuts for owners and executive management.  We found that with smart business decisions, that would not adversely affect the service we provided our clients, we could survive the recession”.

A shoplifter cannot be easily identified; sex, age, race, religion, personal appearance and even economic status will not help identify a shoplifter.  Shoplifting methods and tools used are limited only by the imagination of the shoplifter.  The shoplifter can be anyone.

Facts about Pepper Spray

0

There can be no definitive answer as to whether or not pepper spray will protect you.  It all depends on the type of pepper spray used and the manner in which you use it.  I have been a police officer since 2000 and have used pepper spray several times to protect myself and others.  As an experienced and trained user of pepper spray, I know that all too often, circumstances beyound our control may render the pepper spray ineffective.

Pepper spray is commonly referred to as OC Spray, which is short of oleoresin capsicum.  Just as its name implies, pepper spray is made from Cayenne peppers, which are amonth the hottest in the world.
