Gahanna Division of Police Policy Manual Gahanna Division of Police Policy Manual CHIEF’S PREFACE This Manual sets forth the standards, values, and expectations of the Gahanna Division of Police. It exists to promote and maintain high levels of professional conduct. Along with the Division’s core values and mission statement, it demonstrates the Division’s commitment to providing safe, effective, and transparent law enforcement services, while maintaining the Constitutional protections and dignity of all. Though this manual cannot predict every aspect of policing, nor anticipate all potential situations that might be encountered, it does provide a framework of rules and expected performance for all Division members. It is the responsibility of each member to familiarize themselves and comply with the provisions herein. To the extent that Division policy may contain provisions more restrictive than state or federal law, such provisions are not intended, nor may they be construed or applied, to create a basis for liability against the City or any of its employees. This and other written publications of the Division are only a part of the direction provided to agency members. Communication that is directive in nature from supervisory or management personnel has the same authority as any written policy. This Manual is maintained and updated as necessary to reflect changes in law, personnel responsibilities, and agency goals and objectives through a collaborative process established by the Chief of Police Copyright Lexipol, LLC 2020/12/03, All Rights Reserved. Chief’s Preface - 1 Published with permission by Gahanna Division of Police Gahanna Division of Police Policy Manual LAW ENFORCEMENT CODE OF ETHICS As a law enforcement officer, my fundamental duty is to serve the community; to safeguard lives and property; to protect the innocent against deception, the weak against oppression or intimidation and the peaceful against abuse or disorder; and to respect the constitutional rights of all to liberty, equality and justice. I will keep my private life unsullied as an example to all and will behave in a manner that does not bring discredit to me or to my agency. I will maintain courageous calm in the face of danger, scorn or ridicule; develop self-restraint; and be constantly mindful of the welfare of others. Honest in thought and deed both in my personal and official life, I will be exemplary in obeying the law and the regulations of my department. Whatever I see or hear of a confidential nature or that is confided to me in my official capacity will be kept ever secret unless revelation is necessary in the performance of my duty. I will never act officiously or permit personal feelings, prejudices, political beliefs, aspirations, animosities or friendships to influence my decisions. With no compromise for crime and with relentless prosecution of criminals, I will enforce the law courteously and appropriately without fear or favor, malice or ill will, never employing unnecessary force or abuse and never accepting gratuities. I recognize the badge of my office as a symbol of public faith, and I accept it as a public trust to be held so long as I am true to the ethics of police service. I will never engage in acts of corruption or bribery, nor will I condone such acts by other police officers. I will cooperate with all legally authorized agencies and their representatives in the pursuit of justice. I know that I alone am responsible for my own standard of professional performance and will take every reasonable opportunity to enhance and improve my level of knowledge and competence. I will constantly strive to achieve these objectives and ideals, dedicating myself before God to my chosen profession - law enforcement. Copyright Lexipol, LLC 2020/12/03, All Rights Reserved.

  • The Portraiture of Stockholm Syndrome: Cultural Dislocation in Phillis Wheatley’S Poetry Collection and Selected African American Texts
    English Studies at NBU, 2018 pISSN 2367-5705, eISSN 2367-8704 Vol. 4, Issue 1, pp. 41-60 www.esnbu.org THE PORTRAITURE OF STOCKHOLM SYNDROME: CULTURAL DISLOCATION IN PHILLIS WHEATLEY’S POETRY COLLECTION AND SELECTED AFRICAN AMERICAN TEXTS Emmanuel Adeniyi Federal University Oye-Ekiti, Ekiti State, Nigeria Abstract One of the tropes that have often been glossed over in African American literature is the concept of Stockholm Syndrome. The syndrome emphasises irrationality and abnormal psychological or mental disposition of Stockholm Syndrome sufferers towards individuals responsible for their pitiable conditions. This article examines the conception and its nexus with slavery and the use of religion (Christianity) as an ideological tool for the indoctrination or brainwashing of African slaves and their descendants in the United States of America. I argue that the syndrome, though conceived as a correlate of Freudian ego-defence mechanism, operates like a psychedelic or hallucinogenic drug which, according to Karl Marx, dulls the reasoning capacity and cerebration of the sufferers and prevents them from thinking rationally. Besides, it alters their perception of reality forcing them to accept abnormality as normality in a bid to create an escapist route for their fears, hurt feelings and pent-up wounds. Keywords: Stockholm Syndrome, African American literature, Phillis Wheatley, Transatlantic slavery, Ego-Defence Mechanism Article history: Received: 20 March 2018; Reviewed: 9 April 2018; Accepted: 20 June 2018; Published: 30 June 2018 Copyright © 2018 Emmanuel Adeniyi The Portraiture of Stockholm Syndrome: Cultural Dislocation in Phillis Wheatley’s Poetry Collection and Selected African American Texts by Emmanuel Adeniyi is an open access article distributed under a Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial 4.0 International License which permits non-commercial use, distribution, and reproduction in any medium, provided the original author and source are credited.

  • Transformations of the Evil Forest in the Swedish Television Series Jordskott an Ecocritical Reading
    NORDICOM REVIEW Transformations of the Evil Forest in the Swedish Television Series Jordskott An ecocritical reading Irina Souch Department of Modern Foreign Languages and Cultures, University of Amsterdam, The Netherlands Abstract This article is an ecocritical reading of the Swedish television series Jordskott. I discuss the effects in the series produced by the combination of the Nordic Noir’s style and narrative techniques with elements of other genres, especially Gothic horror. I argue that through the contemporary reworking of the centuries-old Nordic mythology, Jordskott demonstrates how the aggressive powers of nature in Gothic narratives can no more be conventionally explained by referring to the pagan, pre-Christian beliefs, but need to be reconceived in light of the relentless environmental devastation brought about by humankind. The link unveiled between natural ecology and cultural mythology allows the series to surpass the limitations of the regionally informed folkloric story and to evolve into an ecological cau- tionary tale of global significance. Keywords: environmental criticism, ecoGothic, serial television, fantasy, Jordskott Introduction Nature wants to tell us something! Olof Gran (Jordskott, 2015, episode 5) A crucial scene in the Swedish television series Jordskott features the retired inspector Olof Gran attempting to intervene in a press conference at the police quarters of a small provincial town, Silverhöjd. Questioned by journalists, the police struggle to explain the succession of crimes plaguing the place, ranging from the heavy contamination of the river to mysterious disappearances of young children and brutal murders of senior citizens. While the media speculate about terrorist attacks and the possible invasion of vicious monsters who persecute the people, Gran’s emphatic assertion that the town’s predicament is caused by the prolonged human infringement on the surrounding nature remains conspicuously unheard.

    1 Same . yet Other: Interpersonal Communication across Alternate Worlds Eleanor Sandry Most everyday experiences of being human involve communication with others, from sharing information and exchanging ideas at work, to agreeing on what to eat for dinner or which television channel to watch at home. Held alongside this conception of routine communication is the assumption that every human is unique and set apart from all others by virtue of their particular individual differences. The psychologist William James describes this idea of selfhood as the “splitting of the universe into two halves” named “‘me’ and ‘not- me’ respectively” (289). The central aim of human communication theory is therefore to explain how people, whose differences mean that they cannot be sure what the other is thinking, are able to interact effectively and understand one another throughout their daily lives. To answer this question, many communication theories position difference between individuals as a problem that must be overcome for successful communication to take place. Whether communication is perceived in terms of accurate information transmission or exchange, gaining persuasive influence, rational discourse and agreement, or the creation of shared social understandings, it is what communicators have in common that is most often judged to be essential for success. However, scholars such as John Durham Peters, Amit Pinchevski, and Briankle Chang contend that difference is also of vital importance in human communication, in terms of the ethical need to respect otherness. A practical argument can also be made to suggest that the other’s position of difference could well offer valuable insights on a particular situation or shared task.
