Ethical Dilemmas In Criminal Justice Case Study

I agree that the waitress should not have gone against the boss’s policy and should have charged the officers for their meals (Pollack, 2017). The reason she should not have done this is because she did not have the authorization to do so. If the waitress did not like the hours she worked or the policy that the owner had set then she should find another job. I believe that what the waitress was doing is theft, considering she was not authorized to give the free meals and when the officers are receiving the meals they are condoning and collaborating in the theft (Coleman, 2004, 41).
