Police Misconduct: An International Comparison

Review the Interpol web page on Corruption (Links to an external site.) and evaluate Interpol’s international policing and ways Interpol is investigating these crimes. What is Interpol’s definition of corruption? Would you change anything about the definition provided by Interpol? Review Chapter 6 in the textbook and compare police misconduct in the United States to police misconduct in other countries.

Your initial post should be at least 400 words in length. Support your claims with examples from the required material(s) and/or other scholarly resources, and properly cite any references.
