- 9. Sheet3 Week 6 (1) What unique ethical challenges, if any, are faced by law enforcement "superagencies?" Law enforcement superagencies are made up of employees from all different areas of expertise with many different ways of doing things. In a career field made up of mostly type A personalities, these multiple levels of experience can sometimes clash. This clash can lead to infighting and poor ethical decision making which can have detrimental and irreversible consequences as seen in the CF Somalia case (Fitch, 2014). As the text states, “Today’s superagency leaders must capitalize on the multitude of experience and capacities of their generational cohorts of employees; they must also promote ongoing learning and celebrate ethical, professional behavior, critical thinking, and decision making” (Fitch, 2014) (2) What do you believe are the key challenges and/or effective strategies for recruiting ethical people to work in law enforcement? One of the biggest challenges for recruiting ethical people to work in law enforcement is the fact that many people can present themselves well on paper and in an interview but how they perform and make decisions when faced with an ethical dilemma is unknown. In depth and detailed background checks are effective and often draw out red flags. Past behaviors such as drug use, stealing, or cheating need to be critically evaluated in order to determine a pattern of poor decision making. Unfortunately, the pool for qualified police applicants is at all time low, thus resulting in some agencies lowering and compromising their background standards. Questionable behaviors and decisions that were once automatic disqualifiers are now being given time frames in order to raise qualified applicant numbers. For example, marijuana use was once an automatic disqualifier where now as long as you haven’t used maijuana in the past five years, you remain a qualified
- 10. applicant. Lowering standards in order to raise “qualified” applicant numbers is a slippery slope and will only lead to problems and unethical behavior down the road in my opinion. Ethical behavior must be a foundational pillar within the agency in order to recruit ethical applicants. Accountability must also be at the forefront of recruiting in any agency so that they recruit only those who share the same values. (3) Describe the importance of the link between law enforcement training and ethical behaviors? Law enforcement training is crucial in molding ethical behavior for the new police officer. While agencies must do everything they possibly can to recruit an already morally sound and ethical applicant, academy and in-service training must continue to teach and demonstrate ethics. Police officers are faced with unique situations daily that often involve decision making based on proper judgement, discretion, and ethics. It is imperative that experienced veteran officers display proper ethical behavior and decision making to new recruits in order to set the standard for acceptable conduct. Ethics is taught at police academies and recruits are evaluated through their performance in realistic ethical scenarios. Training as well as real world implementation is key to ensuring ethical behavior. (4) What are some of the best practices or industry standards on the topics you are auditing (Research paper) The best practices when it comes to a successful find and bite canine team is dog selection and continuous training. In speaking with the founder and head trainer of the Sacramento Police Department Canine Unit, dog selection is crucial to an effective and successful canine team. While some agencies still look for the meanest and toughest dogs, progressive and well educated agencies seek the dog with the best temperament, sociability, and eagerness to learn. Seeking a well tempered and trainable dog has reduced the liability of the agency when it comes to accidental bites and excessive force complaints. It has also produced a more confident canine handler who can use his dog as a recruitment tool by showcasing it to the public without
- 11. fear of dog aggression. Continued training using real world scenarios has shown to be an industry standard among most canine units across the country. Introducing the dog to new environments and changing the scenarios ensures that the dog never becomes acclimated resulting in a dog who is eager to learn and succeed. (5) What are some of the possible training or policy recommendations that you identified in your audit (Research Paper)? In my own agency, the use of canines policy was recently changed in order to clarify when the dog could be deployed per department guidelines. I feel that the policy is well written and protects the agency, the handler, and the public. I would not recommend any policy changes at this time. In regards to training, I would recommend more inter-agency conferences and training days in order to explore and even implement effective training methods used by neighboring agencies. References 1.)Fitch, B. D. (2014). Law enforcement ethics: classic and contemporary issues. Los Angeles: SAGE. (1) What unique ethical challenges, if any, are faced by law enforcement "super-agencies?" Following the 9/11 terrorist attacks, the United States, Canada and other countries believed that there was a need to form umbrella super-agencies that consolidated border, customs, and inland policing services (Fitch, 2014). The unique ethical challenge that is presented with the formulation of these super- agencies is the subcultures that likely exist within some of agencies that can easily go unknown or unaddressed until a significant mishap. Fitch provides the extremely unethical behavior of members of the Canadian Airborne Regiment from with the broadly formed Canadian Forces as an example of a subculture acting unethically within a larger super-agency (2014). Fitch states that the Canadian Forces failed to “clearly
- 12. communicate its vision of change and transformation among its rank and file, attain buy-in of its new peacekeeping-focused organizational culture, and educate its personnel on professional and ethical conduct” (2014, p. 335). However, I only view this latter point of educating regarding ethical conduct as key to this failure. Leadership must ensure that each subculture is explored and that ethical standards are identified and followed. (2) What do you believe are the key challenges and/or effective strategies for recruiting ethical people to work in law enforcement? The key challenges lie in identifying potential psychological issues and/or background details that should preclude certain individuals from getting hired as law enforcement officers. There are problems with the veracity of psychological testing with accurately identifying potential problem candidates as well. Other times, departments will disregard obvious potential issues due to other positive traits (Fitch, 2014). There can be problems with background checks not fully identifying other potential negative characteristics as well. Personality instruments can be a good tool to use to evaluate suitability for work in law enforcement. There are several types of these personality tests and they can be effective if used in conjunction with other pre-employment psychological tools, such as interviews. Using these interviews to collect and discuss background experiences are a key strategy to hire ethical officers (Fitch, 2014, p. 39). Having an officer candidate discuss actions to various situations will assist in uncovering suitability concerns. These strategies are all critical to selecting ethical law enforcement officers, however, there must always be a significant probation period for these positions because inevitably there will be individuals who demonstrate questionable conduct and many times that conduct will require separation. (3) Describe the importance of the link between law enforcement training and ethical behaviors?
- 13. Law enforcement training and ethical behaviors are interrelated in that department leadership cannot expect compliance with certain ethical standards without making those standards clear to all employees. Ethical standards are different among all of us due to culture, family, country and other childhood upbringing aspects. This training must be clear and engage new recruits. Educators, or facilitators, must understand that context influences the form and quality of learning (Fitch, 2014, p. 59). They must include examples of ethical situations that officers will likely encounter and encourage a dialogue between students, which will help to ensure effective learning (Fitch, 2014). Fitch explains that real-life scenarios are key to positive results in the field with regard to ethical performance (2014). (4) What are some of the best practices or industry standards on the topics you are auditing (Research paper) The best practices in my audit have been researched, identified, and clearly noted by the Federal Bureau of Investigation. The Bureau has researched the best practices from throughout the United States (many high performing police departments and offices), the US Military Special Operations community, and other entities, and compiled an excellent industry standard for others to follow. (5) What are some of the possible training or policy recommendations that you identified in your audit (Research Paper)? Regarding possible training recommendations, I plan to encourage department integration with FBI active shooter response trainers. I will note that during one of my interviews of the department, it was made known that they are currently in discussions to join another department in this kind of FBI training. With regard to policy, my recommendation is going to be to include a statement that the department will take efforts to ensure its officers are provided annual joint training in active shooter response.
- 14. 1. What unique ethical challenges, if any, are faced by law enforcement "superagencies?" Canada’s Combined Forces initiative (CF) is an example of ethical challenges faced by law enforcement superagencies. Put shortly, Canada combined its military forces in the 1960s recognizing that it was too small a nation to have separate military forces. Under the CF, service members from different military branches were cross trained. However, the effects that the new CF culture would have on the service members both old and new was not adequately addressed. Infighting based on organizational culture led to incidents and ethics violations i.e. the Somalia Affair where a young Somalian was tortured and killed by Canadian paratroopers. The lessons learned from the failure of CF are that organizational culture matters; that the capacities of generational cohorts must be capitalized and that ongoing learning and the celebration of ethical, professional behavior, critical thinking and decision making must be promoted (Fitch, 2014). 2. What do you believe are the key challenges and/or effective strategies for recruiting ethical people to work in law enforcement? One of the key challenges to recruiting ethical people to work in law enforcement is that people have personal values and beliefs. Sometimes, those values and beliefs fall in line with a department’s code of ethics. Sometimes, not so much. Finding the warning signs prior to hiring individuals is difficult and not an exact science. There are several strategies used for recruiting ethical people including: background investigations; medical assessments; structured interviews; psychological evaluations; drug screenings; physical fitness testing; and polygraph examinations (Fitch, 2014). These strategies not only help in identifying values and beliefs that are contrary to those of a department’s, but they help identify “poor decision-making
- 15. skills, prior unethical or criminal conduct, or a predisposition toward violence” (Fitch, 2014) which can help a department avoid spending resources on a less than ideal employee. 3. Describe the importance of the link between law enforcement training and ethical behaviors? It is not enough for departments to simply provide lecture and require rote memorization of rules and policies regarding the importance of ethical behavior. Adults are less likely to display ethical behavior with only that type of training. An active and holistic approach incorporating higher order thinking and reasoning skills is required. Departments must depart from the traditional pedagogical approach beginning at the academy level and incorporate a more “adult learning philosophy and corresponding training curricula that emphasize the critical thinking, decision making, emotional intelligence, and other soft skills necessary to empower officers to behave ethically” (Fitch, 2014). 4. What are some of the best practices or industry standards on the topics you are auditing (Research paper)? I’m not entirely sure there are “best practices” or “industry standards” on my topic unless they exist for policy formulation. In which case, in the policy process, hindsight is 20/20. Policy makers can do their best to address a certain issue through policy as they did with Proposition 47, but there are almost always unintended consequences. In the case of Proposition 47, the unforeseen consequence was a spike in property crime. In order to address that problem, it is up to all the stakeholders to recognize first that there is a problem with the policy and then to gather the data necessary to analyze and make resolution recommendations. Then, policy makers may adopt recommendations and implement them. Hopefully, they work. 5. What are some of the possible training or policy recommendations that you identified in your audit (Research Paper)? Sadly, in my opinion, there are not many recommendations out there which address the property crime problem associated with
- 16. Proposition 47. There is one that I believe has the potential to have a positive effect on the problem that was created. To me, it sounds a bit like the now fairly unpopular three strikes law: The effort aims to modify Proposition 47, which passed in 2014 and raised the felony-shoplifting threshold in the state to $950. If successful, the new measure would make repeat offenders eligible for felony prosecution after a third theft valued at $250 or more. (Sievold, 2017) References Fitch, B. D. (2014).
