IIL BUSINESS
A. Ethics Pees®ntation by Jon Zeliff
Police Chief Jon Zeliff presented a power point presentation on Ethics and how
citizens should view. elected .officials..
• He stated that more officers are lost to the business of law enforcement
because of ethical misconduct then being killed in the line of duty.
• Ethics is in us, it can not be taught. We are either ethical people and follow
the rules or we are not and eventually succumb to misconduct.
• Elected Officials and City Officials need to do the right thing, not just the easy
thing.
• Anger, lust and greed are the three things that lead to unethical behavior.
• if something is predicable, its preventable.
• Think about your legacy. On your tombstone there is a dash between the day
you are born and the day you die. The important thing to remember is how
did you live your dash. How will you be remembered.
