The Measurement of Police Integrity

By Samuels, Julie E.

Description
Legal Reference Publication

Excerpt
Excerpt: As the history of virtually every police agency attests, policing is an occupation that is rife with opportunities for misconduct. Policing is a highly discretionary, coercive activity that routinely takes place in private settings, out of the sight of supervisors, and in the presence of witnesses who are often regarded as unreliable. Corruption?the abuse of police authority for gain?is one type of misconduct that has been particularly problematic. The difficulties of controlling corruption can be traced to several factors: the reluctance of police officers to report corrupt activities by their fellow officers (also known as ?The Code,? ?The Code of Silence,? or ?The Blue Curtain?), the reluctance of police administrators to acknowledge the existence of corruption in their agencies, the benefits of the typical corrupt transaction to the parties involved, and the lack of immediate victims willing to report corruption.
