II/100 DISCIPLINE PROCESS

100.00 DISCIPLINE PROCESS

All alleged or suspected actions of departmental personnel that may involve the commission of a criminal offense, misconduct, neglect of duty, or other violation of departmental rules or orders, will be investigated by the Department.

101.00 PURPOSE

The primary objective of such investigations are:

A. PROTECTION OF THE PUBLIC – The public has the right to expect efficient, fair and impartial law enforcement. Therefore, any misconduct by departmental personnel must be detected, thoroughly investigated, and properly adjudicated to assure the maintenance of these qualities.

B. PROTECTION OF THE DEPARTMENT – The Department is often evaluated and judged by the conduct of individual members. It is imperative that the entire organization not be subjected to public censure because of misconduct by a few of its members. When the public is informed and knows that its Police Department honestly and fairly investigates and adjudicates all allegation of misconduct against its members, the public will be less likely to feel the need to raise a cry of indignation over alleged incidents of misconduct.

C. PROTECTION OF THE EMPLOYEE – Employees must be protected against false allegations of misconduct. This can only be accomplished through a consistently thorough investigative process.

D. REMOVAL OF UNFIT PERSONNEL – Personnel who engage in serious acts of misconduct or who have demonstrated they are unfit for law enforcement demonstrated they are unfit for law enforcement work, must be removed for the protection of the public, the Department, and Department employees.

E. CORRECTION OF PROCEDURAL PROBLEMS – The Department is constantly seeking to improve its efficiency and the efficiency of its members. Occasionally, personnel investigations disclose faulty procedures that would other wise have gone undetected. Such procedures can then be improved or corrected.
