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 keep my private life unsullied as an example to all and will behave in a manner which
does not bring discredit to me or my ager;cy. l will maintain courageous calm in the face of
danger, scorn, or ridicule; develop self r,~atraint; and be constantly mindful of the welfare of
others. Honest in thought and deed in both my personal and oftlcial life, I will be exemplary
in obeying the law and the regulations of my depa,~tment. iNhatever 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 or friendships to influence my decisions. With no compromise for
the crime and with relentless prosecution of criminals, I will enforce the law courteously and
appropriately without fear or favor, malECe 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 tc~ the ethics of police service. l will never engage in
acts of bribery nor will I 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 awn standard of professional performance and
will take every opportunity to enr~~!;ce and improve my level of knowledge and
competence.
I will constantly strive to achieve these objectives and ideals, ~~edicating myself before God
and my chosen profession ... Law Er~farceme ,t.
