You are a member of a police review board investigating a case for internal affairs. As a group, select a case involving police misconduct or judicial misconduct/malfeasance to research. Use the library, news reports, and the internet to locate information on the case your group has selected.

• Details and evaluation of the code of conduct related to the case, including the ethical responsibility of the officer (including possible differences on how an officer acts off or on duty)

Please add your file.

Group portion: As the police review board, your group will report based on the facts of the case and close with a recommendation of the review board of whether the officer who was involved in police misconduct or judicial misconduct/malfeasance will continue to work as an officer or be asked for a resignation. In your discussion, be sure to address the following:

• theories of morality, values, and consequences
• judicial ethics and responsibility
• implications of judicial misconduct
• recommended course of action for the officer or judge

Please use your Small Group Discussion Board and small group chat as forums to discuss the elements of this project.

Your team lead will submit the final project into the small group’s submitted assignments area.
