The police culture or subculture consists of a combination of values and norms unique to police officers. One of the major parts of this subculture is loyalty. For police officers, loyalty means backing up and supporting your fellow officers. In this case, allowing your partner's version of what took place is your way of demonstrating the loyalty you have for your partner. Because your partner is willing to seek out help to address the stress he is experiencing you feel it is appropriate to allow his version to stand. Of course, it is possible that this slightly different version may be uncovered, but you believe your partner and preserving the trust in your relationship is worth the risk.
