The Law Enforcement Code of Ethics

Lachapelle forestigalion
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 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 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, 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 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 own standard of professional performance
and will take every opportunity to enhance and improve my level of knowledge and
competence.
I will constantly strive to achieve these objectives and ideals, dedicating myself before
God and my chosen profession Law Enforcement.
