What Happens If A Police Officer Is Facing Federal Corruption Charges?

What Happens If A Police Officer Is Facing
Federal Corruption Charges?
2

• Cases of corruption are very common in the United
  States. Every now and then, an officer or a
  prosecutor will be charged and faced with federal
  corruption charges.
• Keep in mind that the bribe is a criminal offense
  which may lead to an arrest. The next time you
  want to bribe an office, consider that if the
  officer refuses, you may spend a few months/years
  behind the bars.

The Same Rules Apply

• Whether a criminal is facing federal charges or a
  police officer is facing federal corruption
  charges, the same rules will apply. The
  investigation will be conducted, and if any
  supporting evidence is found, the officer will be
  convicted and will have to serve the penalty.
• In most cases, if the police officer is
  dishonored from the police force, he or she will
  lose their benefits, including
• Medical insurance
• Payroll benefits
• Retirement benefits

• If the office is not put behind bars, he or she
  will most likely have to pay serious fines, as
  well as try and look for another job. (In
  reality, most people accused and convicted of
  federal corruption charges are incarcerated).
• If you are facing deferral corruption charges and
  need a good defense attorney, consult with
  federal crime attorneys in Los Angeles. Schedule
  your initial consultation and learn more about
  your rights and how you can enforce them.

It is More Common Than You Think

• Believe it or not, but almost every month at
  least one officer is convicted of being bribed
  or being a dirty police officer. These things
  happen occasionally, and it is more common than
  you would think. Since police officers also have
  a family to take care of, there is always a
  shortage of money. And when an opportunity
  presents to make a little extra, many will fail
  the test. However, once this is discovered, that
  police officer will face the trial and be left
  without a badge and all the benefits that come
  along.

In addition, they may face a life behind bars
based on the amount they previously accepted as
bribery. As a police officer, the worst place to
be in is definitely a prison. Keep that in mind
the next time you are offered a bribe and you
think about accepting it. However, nothing is
over until it is really over. In order to be
convicted, there has to be evidence proving that
you took the bribe. Even though most police
officers will refuse the bribe and even arrest
you for trying to bribe a state officer (it is
illegal and against the law), there are some who
will accept it when the offer is too good to
pass.
