NCIS, or Naval Criminal Investigative Service, is a crime investigation show focusing on the investigations done within this branch of the government. This episode was investigating a naval officer that had a stroke and died on Air Force one after having dinner with the president. Therefore this investigation involved the NCIS, FBI, and Secret Service fighting over control of the case. This show, like many other shows involving the investigation of crime had some themes that are talked about in Surette, 2015 (Bellisario, 2003). One is these themes is that the main character of this show, Agent Gibs, is a “good cop.” He is a dedicated professional of the criminal just system that is using the latest technology to repeatedly proved that crime does not pay (Surette, 2015). His whole NCIS team would be considering apart from the “good cop” theme. While in this episode the NCIS team was fighting with other departments to get control of the case, none of the other departments would be consider “bad cops.” In this episode their was also no civilian crime …show more content…
They were all very effective crime fighters and were portrayed to be the best at their jobs (Surette, 2015). Everyone involved was a federal agent, with the exception of one character that was a local coroner, but he was only in one scene. The only real expectation the theme of them being G men would involve them following police procedurals. Agent Gibs would be the best example of someone bending the rules to be able to do the investigating the way he would want to and he therefore didn’t following the rules giving to the police by the letter. Examples of this include when he took the plane the man had just died on so he could ditch the FBI and when he had his employee pretend to be a dead body and gave him to the FBI so he could take the actual body back to NCIS so he could have control of the case (Bellisario,

Holton explains that the founding fathers were became increasingly paranoid that they were going to lose their influence within the colonies. The gentry’s influence stemmed from their ability to control the markets of two key commodities in colonial America; land and labor. Gentlemen were beginning to feel constrained by the people above them, the British government, who were constraining the gentry’s access to land by the signing of the Proclamation of 1763, which
Tiller Russell’s enthralling film “The Seven Five” is shameful yet engaging that it gives a valuable lesson. The documentary focuses on the occurrences in the 75th precinct of East New York during the dark days of the 1980s and the true-crime deeds of Michael Dowd, a corrupt officer, through interviews with Dowd himself, investigators, Dowd’s partners, and drug dealers. Joined the New York Police Department in 1982 when he was 20 years old, Michael Dowd became a patrol officer for 10 years and 5 months, and within that decade, he confessed into using his authority to commit crimes and acts of corruption in violation of his sworn duty to uphold the law.
• Integrity: each police officer is presumed to do the right thing, at all times, regardless of the matter at hand, those involved and any other influences. Officers are held to a higher lever of integrity and expected to perform above all else, at all times (Baker, 2011).

People always look at the police or any law enforcement as the heroes or the “good guys”. That they are supposed to be the brightest and outsmart criminals in any given situation. But what if they really weren’t what they seemed to be? Directors Spike Lee and Bryan Singer tackle this idea in their movies Inside Man and Usual Suspects. The theme of cops being not as smart as they are supposed to be.
When the public looks at us as public servants they expect officers to be of the highest ethical, and moral standard. When the police deal with the public, unfortunately it is usually when something is wrong. To be able to fix things that are wrong in society you have to be a person of integrity with moral values. The public would never trust someone who does not have integrity to fix there problems. In order for officers of the Las Vegas metropolitan police to perform their duties the community needs to be able to trust them. When a officer is trustworthy, he or she can be relied upon to be honest, reliable, and loyal, which to me means they have integrity. But its also equally important to be respectful, responsible, fair, caring, and demonstrate good citizenship. An officer with integrity does exactly what he says, and says exactly what he means. There is no conflict or doubt between his thoughts and actions. His actions are consistent with the values he claims to

The criminal justice system is made up of many fundamentals. Officers need to go through a variety of procedures in the hiring process, and once completed they need to go through a training academy. Many U.S. citizens have witnessed a broken criminal justice system throughout the years. Citizens observe officers causing a huge attempt of corruption. Corruption is occurring worldwide and is making our law enforcement system look unprofessional. Our criminal justice system is not all fully corrupted; only certain individuals are. Police get engaged with certain individuals and get brained wash with the mentality of doing the wrong choices and not getting caught because they know how the system works. The majority of law enforcement officers are competent, honest, professional, but there are some that use their license to steal and/or kill. Some police officers are involved with drug trafficking, involving innocent people with crimes, and causing harm to our society.

What is this ‘good police work’ that Klinger references? When he says that, he is giving an idea of how the police should do their job. But this phrase means something different to each person. In general though, it probably means giving assistance where needed, bringing culprits to justice, and being a helpful and responsible member of the community. In contrast, Klinger references ‘questionable actions’. This phrase could include taking bribes, being disrespectful to members of the community, using excessive force, and acting with an air of being correct no matter the result.
