Discussão sobre o comportamento ético e os desvios de conduta praticados pelos policiais militares

Abstract

Police organizations, over time, have accumulated the image of institutions in which their servants do not act ethically. Officers are called off because they practice various deviations of conduct, behaviors practiced by a few, but that reflect, negatively, in general in the Institution and, all end up suffering the consequences of these attitudes. Although ethical behavior is implicit in the pillars of militarism, hierarchy and discipline, ethics as well as an institutional need, must be constantly treated as a fundamental principle, which contributes to a better acceptance of the police class. The purpose of this work was to make a brief discussion about the concepts of ethical behavior and crime rates presented by the Justice and Discipline of the Military Police of Amazonas, as well as to present recent data from the Brazilian Forum on Public Security involving the issue of deviations of conduct practiced by military police at the national level. The technical procedures used were of the bibliographical and documentary research type, with the purpose of gathering information to analyze the different positions about the research problem. The social relevance of this work is due to the high indexes of deviations of conduct, among crimes and transgressions practiced by military police, registered by DJD, against the population of Amazonas, evidencing the need to clarify how the strengthening of ethical behavior may be one of the factors to mitigate such deviations and improve the Institution's credibility within society. After analyzing the researches, it was obtained that the ethical standards should act as the basis of the public service and that the credibility of the Military Police of the Amazon as Institution is a consectional aspect, that is, it reflects the good service provided.
