"I'm not sure I can you help you guys much. I mean I can give you the license plate for the car, and let you talk to the guy. But as far as I know your bosses are barking up the wrong tree. Ol' Mike never done anything wrong, he's a good guy. None of the police has questioned him before either. Who are you kids anyways?" I rolled my eyes, only half listening. At least the owner of the dealership seemed only half the dolt the police officer was, and certainly he was at least smart enough to question us instead of just assuming I was trying here to prove something to my 'girlfriend'. I shuddered, the mere thought of one repulsed me. I did have to give him the benefit of the doubt, he still at least tried to treat us like adults instead of imbecile
The sound of a police siren is the worst, and scariest sound I’ve heard so far. The blue and the red lights flashing so bright, almost blinding my eyes, and warning me to pull over and stop my car immediately. My hearth was pounding like a drumroll, and my hands were shaking like an earthquake. I was sitting in my car like a statue that is glued to the chair and the wheel of my car and waited for the cops to come over. Two handsome and humble police officers came to my side and asked me to show my license and registration, once I handed my paperwork’s, the tall slim officer went to his vehicle and started examining my information, when the other officer started questioning me. Shortly after I told them, I had a few drinks, the officers told
He asked if I needed something and I asked to speak with the individual driving the silver Ford. The male said to wait, that he would get him. A male then exited the house and I began to question him on the hit and run that occurred during the night. The male stated it wasn't him and the car is his mother's.
On August 4, 2017 at approximately 2:40pm, Officer Lucas Griffin and I, Officer Kyeishia Evans, with the Ville Platte Police Department, was dispatched to 902 West Lincoln Street, Ville Platte, Louisiana, in reference to a business alarm. Upon arrival I witnessed a maroon 1999 Chevrolet Tahoe bearing license plate number ZTC679. I checked the vehicle and it was locked; however, I noticed the car was warm, as if the car had just been parked in the parking lot. I also noticed the back door of the business was opened. Officer Griffin and I checked the inside of the room; however, there was no door in the back room where you could enter the business. While checking the inside of the room we noticed damage to the tiles on the ceiling. I advised
“The Sheriff´s office has issued a mandatory evacuation order for your area.” A phone call like that will get you out of bed in a hurry, and it’s something you don’t get used too. I grew up in Ramona, California, a small rural town with not much to offer. Mountains, farm animals, hillbillies and fires… all a part of Ramona.
Law enforcement, in some form, has existed for centuries and since its creation there has been numerous improvements. Improvements have come about because of community changes and the need for more effective ways of policing the people. As crimes became more fierce and complex so did the need for the investigation and solving of these crimes. Criminal investigative techniques were not just born from thin air, some thought and planning had to go into figuring out the proper ways to go about doing things. Pioneers of the criminal justice and criminal investigation field such as August Vollmer, Alphonse Bertillon, Edward Henry, and Edmond Locard have made superior contributions to the development of criminal investigative techniques. These techniques have impacted the way police operate today and set a substantial base for law enforcement to build on.
Engendering a New Police Identity was written by Tracvy Fitzsimmons. In this article she talks about how democratization has been changing security and the police force identities. This article she says that women should be put into a police force because they would change the identity of the force and it would better to have a kinder person to handle moving towards post conflict.

Policing relies on the public trust, police legitimacy and accountability, which can be destroyed by unjustifiable police shootings (Squires and Kennninson, 2010). Within this country, there is a recognition that the police do not always adhere to the rule of law (Newburn and Reiner, 2012: 809), which has led to consistent public outrage at the lack of effectiveness and legitimacy the police has maintained. Therefore the deliberate decision to enforce police to attend to the streets unarmed was employed to reassure the public that the police were not to be feared (Waddington and Wright, 2010). Ultimately, concerns derive from the belief that the police are completely ineffective when dealing with gun crimes (Farrell, 1992: 20). However,
Police deviance is an unfortunate fact of life. What is the difference between misfeasance, malfeasance, and nonfeasance? To what extent does Plato's notion of the "tri-partite soul" help account for these misbehaviors?
The debate regarding police independence versus police accountability has been hotly contested since at least the 1960s.1 At the heart of the debate are questions relating to the degree and manner of oversight to which police forces should be subjected, while maintaining the independence of those polices forces to carry out their duties free from undue political (or other) interferences. This essay examines the principles underlying the “independence of the office of constable”, the notion of responsible government, and how the interaction between these two ideas has been characterised in the literature. It will be demonstrated that police independence and responsible government (that is, police accountability) are not
Police integrity which is their trustworthiness and sincerity is a frequent topic throughout media, academia, and all law enforcement organizations. One controversy is that police training cause recruits to act against moral standards. The present study examined recruits integrity, which was measured at the beginning and end of police academy training. There were three different training formats that were observed, social desirability, and self-reported emotional intelligence. Results indicated that participants started with momentous higher than moderate levels of integrity, and training had no significant brunt on their integrity scores. Law enforcement organizations focused on ways to guidance their employees maintained high levels of ethical decision making.
If someone was looking for a interesting job than they would want to look into one thing.
Police agencies have been traumatized with allegations of corruption and misconduct almost since the inception of law enforcement. In most organizations, an employee investigation is a sensitive issue. The employee being investigated can become unsettled, many times mentally and emotionally exhausted. Employees directly and indirectly involved can also become emotionally drained. Consider the impact an internal affairs investigation has within a police agency as it struggles to maintain the confidence and respect of the public it serves. The internal affairs process used to investigate complaints can affect the overall morale of the agency and greatly affect the value system and ethics of the police agency itself. Every chief of police must grapple with the dilemma of either exposing misconduct under his leadership or ignoring symptoms of misconduct that may not be otherwise revealed. The proactive approach to police misconduct is not only the appropriate approach, it is the ethical choice. To ignore misconduct is to condone it. Regardless of the number of complaints a police agency receives, whether one or one hundred, the internal affairs process is a very important function for checking the integrity and professionalism of the agency.
What are the standards in Police Ethics? By definition it is the Rules of conduct recognized in respect to police actions when dealing with a class of people, person or a particular group, culture, etc. In all the research I have done, books, articles and research papers I have read, I am hard pressed to find an ethicist without a political agenda or pure racist opinion, who believes that the policies should stand as written.
The earlier development of the law enforcement was developed by a man named Sir Robert Peel also known as the “Father of Modern Policing” (Bennett & Hess, 2007). He was born February 5, 1788 in Chamber Hall near Bury in Lancashire (Bloy, n.d.). He was the one who greatly influenced and set forth the fundamental principles of the police force. He developed an organized force called the London Metropolitan Police in 1829 that protected the people who were victimized due to high unemployment, poverty, and crime. An organization is “an artificial structure created to coordinate either people or groups and resources to achieve a mission or goal” (Bennett & Hess, 2007). The police’s goal is to protect and serve their community. Although the term of a police officer is mixed up with a peace officer “all police officers are peace officers, but all peace officers are not police officers” (Walker & Katz, 2011). The principles that Sir Robert Peel set for the police include:
