bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this
obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of
evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties
of the office on which I am about to enter. “so help me God.”
That same day, he signed the PBI Pledge for Law Enforcement
Officers, in which he pledged, in part: “I accept the obligation
in connection with my assignments to... consider the
information, coming into my knowledge by virtue of my position as
a sacred trust, to be used solely for official purposes. . .., In
‘the performance of my duties and assignments, I shall not engage

in unlawful and unethical practices.”
