  • Chapter 7: Police Deviance
    CHAPTER SEVEN POLICE DEVIANCE olice officers are human beings, and, as with all human beings, there are good ones P and bad ones, honest ones and corrupt ones. But the power and authority that the police have over the rest of us makes police misconduct unique and uniquely danger- ous. Sometimes they misbehave for what they believe are good reasons, anddistribute sometimes they misbehave for selfish reasons. Often it’s somewhere in between the two. Sometimes they are responding to pressure from other officers, sometimes they are acting on their own initiative, and sometimes they are simply caught up in much bigger social forces that are beyond everyone’s control. But because they have power overor us and because most Americans place a great deal of trust in the police, the misconduct of officers can be a very big problem—if a society is rotten, it is often the police that are the core of the problem. In this chapter, we will discuss police deviance. We will look at all forms of police misbehavior or police misconduct that are committed by officers in their professional capacity. If a police officer steps out of line in her private life, this is certainly a form of deviance, but it is not police deviance—the abuse of the unique powers of an officer are what we will discuss here. Police deviance includespost, corruption, that is, the abuse of police authority for personal gain—usually for money but sometimes for favors, including sexual favors. But police deviance can also involve things like excessive force, police brutality, and racial profiling—misconduct that is committed because officers believe that it is necessary for them to do their jobs, rather than being committed out of self-interest.

    Hello and thank you for your interest. I want to provide you with information about my legal background. I have been practicing law in state and federal trial and appellate courts since 1988. Although my interests and experience run a wide range, my primary areas of focus center around civil rights work, employment and labor issues, and protecting the rights of individuals whose rights have even violated by others, typically governmental actors and large private employers. I have extensive trial experience in these types of cases, and I invite you to look up the numerous reported cases that I have handled. A sample of several of the cases I have handled is attached, and these cases involve various civil, employment and commercial matters, including constitutional rights, discrimination, employment law and sundry types of commercial disputes, such as antitrust, securities, and contract cases.
