作為一名執法人員，我的根本職責是為人類服務;保護人民生命財產安全，令無辜者免受欺騙、弱者不受欺壓和恐嚇並和平對抗暴力或阻礙;尊重憲法上所有人的自由、平等和追求公平公正之權利。

我的私生活要保持清白，以作為所有的人的表率; 面對危險、譏諷或嘲笑時要勇敢的保持冷靜;培養自制能力;時刻不忘他人的福祉。不論於公於私，我在思想和行為上都必須保持誠實，我將作為服從國家法令和本局規定的典範。除非因工作要求必須公佈機密資料，無論我看到或聽到或因公務持有任何的機密資料，均須永遠保守秘密。

我絕不意氣用事或任由個人感受、偏見、敵意和友情來影響我的決策。對犯罪我將毫不妥協並鐵面無私的起訴罪犯，我會有禮貌和妥適地執行法律，不會有所畏懼或偏好、惡意或敵意，我將絕不使用非必要的武力或暴力或接受民眾犒賞。

我了解辦公室的徽章是公眾信賴的象徵，並真誠遵守服務的道德規範以達成公眾對我的信任。我將不斷努力實現這些目標與理想，在神的面前奉獻于我所選擇的職業……執法工作。

Rochester Police Department Code of Ethics

AS A LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICER, my fundamental duty is to serve mankind; to safeguard lives and property; to protect the innocent against deception, the weak against oppression or intimidation and the peaceful against violence or disorder; and to respect  the Constitutional rights of all persons to liberty, equality and justice.

I WILL keep my private life unsullied as an example to all; maintain courageous calm in the face of danger, scorn, or ridicule; develop self-restraint; and be constantly mindful of the welfare of others. Honest in thought and deed in both my personal and official life, I will be exemplary in obeying the laws of the land and the regulations of my department. Whatever I see or hear of a confidential nature or that is confided in me in my official capacity will be kept ever secret unless revelation is necessary in the performance of my duty.

I WILL never act officiously or permit personal feelings, prejudices, animosities or friendships to influence my decisions. With no compromise for crime and with relentless prosecution of criminals, I will enforce the law courteously and appropriately without
fear or favor, malice or ill will, never employing unnecessary force or violence and never accepting gratuities.

I RECOGNIZE the badge of my office as a symbol of public faith, and I accept it as a public trust to be held so long as I am true to the ethics of the police service. I will constantly strive to achieve these objectives and ideals, dedicating myself before God to my chosen profession… law enforcement.
