Sampson was arrested while he was simply doing his job of stocking the coolers at the store. Several other customers and Sampson were in the store when a police sergeant walked in and made him place his hands around his back telling him he…
son will follow. The Army taught me many great things including the value of teamwork, leadership, and self-discipline. I was deployed with the 1/17th Cav to Iraq in 2005. It was in Iraq that I learned what military leadership looked like. The officers in my unit took great care of the troops. They took the time to know the enlisted soldiers and would encourage each soldier to meet their potential. Their going above and beyond what is called…

ethical leadership and behavior continues to be a challenge for police organizations. In the Law Enforcement world, the word ethics means much more because police officers are always under the microscope of society. Actions of the officers are always being watched by the citizens and criticized by the media, especially when things go wrong. Officers are expected to always act in a moral, ethical manner because we have the ability to not only take away someones freedom, but also their lives;…
