| Ethics In Law Enforcement According to a survey by the directors of Peace Officer Standards and Training Commissions and Councils across the United States, between 1990 and 1995, 3,382 law enforcement officers were disciplined. Of the 3,382 officers 2,296 (59.1%) were decertified. The average officer was 32 years old with 5 to 10 years experience. These statistics tell us that the ethics training received in basic training is not enough. Ethics training is a continuous process from the basic academy, through FTO and throughout our career. Management needs the tools to train and maintain ethical behavior in their law enforcement members. The tools needed are, ethics trained instructors, providing in-service ethics training to the rank and file. This course provides the training for that purpose. What Is Ethics In Law Enforcement It is doing the right thing in spite of pressure to do otherwise. Law enforcement officers have tremendous power over people and situations. The opportunity to take advantage of others, to act out with impunity and disregard to the law and others is within their discretion. They are motivated by law breakers, drug dealers, and other criminals that go free by shrouding themselves in a technicality of the law. In an effort to do right the officer does wrong, thinking the end justifies the means. The officer on the scene must make a split second decision to take action. An action which may be the taking of another’s life or perhaps to deliver punishment in spite of rules to the contrary. Decisions to lie or not to lie must be made when it comes to protecting illegally obtained evidence or testimony, or to cover for a fellow officer who meant to do right but did wrong. These are the ethical dilemmas that officers must face more than once in their career. The wrong decision can cost a person their life, can cost an officer’s job, destroy a department’s reputation or result in the burning of a neighborhood. The costs are measured in money, lives, reputations and grieving widows. Preparation For Ethical Decisions How do we confront these ethical dilemmas, make the proper decision and prevent the disastrous results from the wrong decision? We do it by training. Training to make sound ethical decisions when confronted with ethical dilemmas. Training that starts at the top of the management pyramid and works its way to the rank and file.
