    • 1462 Words
    • 6 Pages

    it only takes one leader who is both charismatic and corrupted to spoil an entire division. In Copland, Lt. Moe Tilden, internal affairs investigator, makes he similar claim. He says, “Everyday, I see cops who lost their way. And I can tell you – these lost cops – they are a minority – but they tend together... They infect those around them. They are like maggots. Where you find one – you often find a nest.” In both Copland and Serpico, the police forces have become “infected,” just as Lt. Tilden claims. If institutions can train cops to fight against the urge to fit in with the group, then more cops would follow suit of Serpico and Heflin, ultimately building more just police institutions from the ground up. Other solutions for ridding corruption include offering support for cops who may face disdain because of reporting misconduct. In addition, governments must insure that their internal affairs operations contain individuals that will always strive for justice. Now, this will occur easily, but through review of personnel and severe consequences for anyone who does break the rules, governments can create just internal affairs committees.

    Individual corruption, when occurring within corrections, nearly always results in institutional corruption, which is defined as the undermining of the purposes of an institution over time (Satz, 2013). The primary difference between individual corruption and institutional corruption is that institutional corruption does not necessarily “involve quid pro quo exchanges” as individual corruption requires (Satz, 2013, p. 997).

Even prior to this regulation, most states had their own regulations starting in the 19th century. Since 1995, the legislature has made many changes to the existing rules, creating a complex web of…
