We learn from a very young age that lying is “bad” and “wrong”. But as a criminal justice practitioner, can lying be justified?
In your introductory paragraph, discuss separately first the legal and then the moral or ethical justification for lying as a criminal justice professional. Then create an original scenario to illustrate each of the following:
- A situation where it is legally improper for the criminal justice professional to lie;
- A situation where it is legally acceptable for the criminal justice professional to lie;
- A situation where it is ethically improper for the criminal justice professional to lie;
- A situation where it is ethically acceptable for the criminal justice professional to lie.
