What Would You Do?
You are Bear Lake's chief of police. In your office, Horne's lawyer asks Smith if he was the arresting officer and the one responsible for the battery on his client. Smith instantly turns red and begins arguing over the lawyer's choice of wording. He states that the suspect was "in that condition" when he arrived on the scene, and asserts that he is in no way responsible for injuring his suspect. The lawyer looks to you as the commanding officer to continue the conversation.
-Do you support your initial decision and continue to support Smith's actions, or in reassessing the situation and all probable outcomes, do you agree that this time Smith should not be allowed to get away with his unethical behavior?
