Infiltration: Limits, Risk, and Control
Infiltration is not acting nor improvised role-playing.
It is a high cognitive and emotional risk operation.
The professional detective understands that:
Prolonged infiltration alters perception
Assumed roles can contaminate judgment
Not all scenarios justify infiltration
The PSD System teaches that infiltration must be:
Justified
Time-limited
Mentally supervised
Continuously evaluated
When infiltration loses control, it ceases to be professional.
