You have been with the local police department for three years and are assigned to the patrol division. You are about to leave a coffee shop one night near the end of your "graveyard" (overnight) shift after having finished a bathroom break. Before you do, one of your fellow officers comes in, off-duty, and clearly intoxicated. Jim Marsh is a 14-year, senior corporal on a shift opposite of you, but is on the list to become your next sergeant. You asked him, "Hey, Jim, tell me you're not driving." He replies, almost bragging, "Of course I am." His demeanor was defiant, as if to say, "What are you going to do about it?"

Make a report that includes the following:

1. What is the appropriate course of action for you to take in this case? (at least two hundred words of the four hundred required words of discussion offered here)

2. List and discuss at least three possible consequences of your choice to take appropriate action.

3. List and discuss at least three possible consequences if you did nothing to address this.

4. Consequences can include but are not limited to criminal, civil, personal, financial, emotional, physical, etc. consequences.

5. Include concepts, terms, etc. from the textbook to display an understanding of the chapter material.
