| AS A LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICER, my fundamental
duty is to serve mankind; to safeguard lives and property; to protect the innocent against
deception, the weak against oppression or intimidation, the peaceful against violence or
disorder; and to respect the Constitutional Rights of all men to liberty, equality and
justice. |
 |
| I will keep my private life unsullied as an example to all;
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 laws of the
land 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, animosities or friendships to influence my decisions. With no compromise for
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
the police service. I will constantly strive to achieve these objectives and ideals,
dedicating myself before God to my chosen profession ... LAW ENFORCEMENT |
