Ethical Issues and Decisions in Law Enforcement

Former FBI director Louis Freeh once stated: “We who enforce the law must not merely obey it. We have an obligation to set a moral example which those whom we protect can follow.” As we enter the 21st century, drug law enforcement officers are faced with many challenging daily decisions. These difficult decisions impact public trust, upon which all aspects of drug law enforcement depend. This training will address these challenging situations, which can either cause destruction of personal worth and value to both family and agency, or establish true worth, enabling officers to efficiently combat the war on drugs. Emphasis will be placed on decision-making skills, consequences of ethical and unethical behavior, and the roles of moral development and personal character in the professional life of drug law enforcement officers.

Introduction to Interview & Interrogation

This unique course offers investigators insight as to what a person is actually saying and most importantly, what they are not saying. Studies have found that while the majority of people do not lie, they instead choose to omit information. This is more commonly referred to as “Lie by Omission and not by Commission.” In doing so, they display involuntary signs of non-verbal body language, they offer “Evasive Verbal Responses” to direct bi-polar questioning, and their written statements oftentimes identify areas that are sensitive to them. While the type of crime is inconsequential, what is important is that the person giving the information is affected by the same passions of guilt, stress, and psychological reasoning relating to their particular crime.
