Monolith Highway Patrol
Oath of Office:
“I do solemnly swear: I will support, protect and defend the constitution and government of the United States and the state of Monolith; I will render strict obedience to my superiors in the Monolith Highway Patrol, and observe and abide by all orders and regulations prescribed by them for the government and administration of said Patrol; I will always conduct myself soberly, honorably and honestly; I will maintain strict, punctual and constant attention to my duties; I will abstain from all offensive personality or conduct unbecoming a police officer; I will perform my duties fearlessly, impartially and with all due courtesy, and I will well and faithfully perform the duties of a Monolith Highway Patrol Officer on which I am now about to enter. So help me God.”
Code of Ethics:
“As a member of the Monolith Highway Patrol, my fundamental duty is to serve humankind; 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 people 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 what is confided to 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.”
This code of ethics is repeated by every trooper when he or she is sworn in as a member of the Monolith Highway Patrol. No one said it would be an easy job. No one said it would be a safe job. But, it is the job we all chose to do. The Patrol is a working unit; it is also a family unit. When something happens to one of us, it happens to us all. Since the Monolith Highway Patrol began in 2018, we have tragically lost 45 troopers to death in the line-of-duty, as of this publication.
