This is your discretion factor . You hold the future of society and law enforcement in your hands. Every use of this discretion will add to or take away from the profession of law enforcement. Please be responsible, wise, prudent, careful, and thoughtful in your decision making. Think about the impact you are having on the person you are handling and on society.
Good cases make good laws and bad cases make bad laws.
Don't take a case to court that will restrict all the officers in America when the court decides against your case. Be one of those officers who adds to the image, not takes away. Always remember, each thing you do will shine the badge or tarnish it. It takes call by call commitment for good results. Give em hell but treat em well.
