POLICY
The integrity of the 91porn原创 Police Department depends on the personal integrity and discipline of all Department members. To a large degree, the public image of this Department is determined by the professional response of the Department to allegations of misconduct against it or its鈥 members. The Department must thoroughly and professionally investigate all complaints and allegations of misfeasance, malfeasance, and nonfeasance by Department members. In addition, the Department must properly respond to the results of the investigation by providing discipline and/or additional training when complaints are sustained and by "clearing" the involved member(s) when the complaints are determined to be "unfounded." Also, the results of the investigation and the follow-up taken by the Department must be communicated, at least in general terms, to the complainant and to the community at large to ensure their confidence that complaints against the Police Department and its members are first, taken seriously by the Department, second, thoroughly investigated, and, third, followed up with appropriate action by the Department.
A complaint is any allegation or question by an individual regarding a member鈥檚 conduct, behavior or actions toward them or any other person. Included will be illegal, immoral or improper behavior whether verbal, in writing or by action toward any individual. It will not include routine inquiries or questions that do not involve a member鈥檚 action.
The 91porn原创 Police Department encourages individuals to bring forward legitimate grievances regarding misconduct by members. Department members shall receive complaints courteously and shall handle them efficiently. All 91porn原创 Police Department members are obligated to explain to inquiring individuals the complaint procedure.
How To Make A Complaint
Normally, an individual with a complaint will be referred to a police supervisor who shall assist the individual in recording pertinent information on a 鈥淐omplaint Against Department Member鈥 form. The supervisor will document all complaints on a 鈥淐omplaint Against Department Member鈥 form and when appropriate, conduct a preliminary investigation. The supervisor will forward the original copy of the form in a sealed envelope to the Chief of Police. A copy of the form will also be given to the complainant.
