I was exposed to all of these things as a child: “Police misconduct refers to inappropriate conduct and illegal actions taken by police officers in connection with their official duties. Types of misconduct include among others: coerced false confession, intimidation, false arrest, false imprisonment, falsification of evidence, spoliation of evidence, police perjury, witness tampering, police brutality, police corruption, racial profiling, unwarranted surveillance, unwarranted searches, and unwarranted seizure of property. Types of police misconduct Types of police misconduct include: Bribing or lobbying legislators to pass or maintain laws that give police excessive power or status Similarly, bribing or lobbying city council members to pass or maintain municipal laws that make victimless acts ticket-able (e.g. bicycling on the sidewalk), so as to get more money Selective enforcement ("throwing the book at" people who one dislikes; this is often related to racial discrimination) Sexual misconduct[1] Off-duty misconduct[2] Killing of dogs unjustly[3] Noble cause corruption, where the officer believes the good outcomes justify bad behavior[4] Using badge or other ID to gain entry into concerts, to get discounts, etc.[how?] Influence of drugs or alcohol while on duty Violations by officers of police procedural policies Abusive police procedures Police officers often share what is known in the United States as a "blue code of silence" which means that they do not turn each other in for misconduct.” Police brutality is the intentional use of excessive force by a police officer. Though usually physical it has the potential to arise in the form of verbal attacks or psychological intimidation. It is in some instances triggered by "contempt of cop", i.e., perceived disrespect towards police officers. Police corruption is a specific form of police misconduct designed to obtain financial benefits and/or career advancement for a police officer or officers in exchange for not pursuing, or selectively pursuing, an investigation or arrest. Police misconduct refers to inappropriate actions taken by police officers in connection with their official duties. Police misconduct can lead to a miscarriage of justice and sometimes involves discrimination.” --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/antonio-myers4/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/antonio-myers4/support
