Police Corruption

Police corruption,
The task of corruption control is to examine the barrel, not just the apples

"“The ‘rotten apple’ theory won’t work any longer. Corrupt police officers are not natural-born criminals, nor morally wicked men, constitutionally different from their honest colleagues. The task of corruption control is to examine the barrel, not just the apples – the organisation, not just the individuals in it – because corrupt police are made, not born.”

Research found that much of the slippery slop to corruption could be avoided, if questionable activity was dealt with openly. Police with nothing to hide are not easily enticed into hiding the corruption of other Police within the force.
