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. You can tell by his mannerisms that he's trying to hide the truth of what really happened, confirming your suspicions of his guilt. The lawyer looks to you as the commanding officer to continue the conversation.
-Do you support your initial decision to file the brutality complaint against Officer Smith, or do you determine that Smith should be supported in his decision because it was in the highest good of the Bear Lake community as a whole?
