The Law Enforcement Code of Ethics
As a law enforcement officer, my fundamental duty is to serve the community; to
safeguard lives and property; to protect the innocent against deception, the weak against
oppression or intimidation, and the peaceful against violence or disorder; and to respect
the constitutional rights of all to liberty, equality and justice,
I will keepmyprivate life unsullied as an example to all and will behave in a manner which
does not bring discredit to me or my agency. I will maintain courageous calm in the face of
danger, scorn, or ridicule; develop self restraint; and be constantly mindful of the welfare of
others. Honest in thought and deed in both my personal and official life, I will be exemplary
in obeying the law and the regulations of my department. Whatever I see or hear of a
confidential nature or that is confided to me in my official capacity will be kept ever secret
unless revelation is necessary in the performance of my duty.
I will never act officiously or permit personal feelings, prejudices, political beliefs,
aspirations, animosities orfriendships to influence my decisions. With no compromise for
the crime and with relentless prosecution of criminals, I will enforce the law courteously and
appropriatelywithout fear or favor, malice or ill will, never employing unnecessary force or
violence and never accepting gratuities,
I recognize the badge of my office as a symbol of public faith, and I accept it as a public
trust to be held so long as I am true to the ethics of police service. I will never engage in
acts of bribery nor willI condone such acts by other police officers. I will cooperate with
legally authorized agencies and their representatives in the pursuit of justice.
I know that I alone am responsible for my own standard of professional performance and
will take every opportunity to enhance and improve my level of knowledge and
competence,
I will constantlystflve to achieve these objectives and ideals, dedicating myself before God
and my chosen profession ... Law Enforcement.
