The code as adopted by the Medford police: Funadmental Duty As a law enforcement officer, my fundamental duty is to serve mankind; to safeguard lives and property; to protect the innocent against deception, the weak against oppression or intimida tion, and the peaceful against violence or disorder; and to re spect the Constitutional rights of all men to liberty, equality and justice. I will keep my private life un sullied 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 regu lations of my department. What ever I see or hear of a confiden tial nature or that is confided to me in my official capacity will be kept ever secret unless revelation is necessary in the performance of my duty. Enforce Law , I will never act officiously or permit personal feelings, preju dices, 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 appropri ately without fear or favor, malice or ill will, never employ ing unnecessary force or vio lence and never accepting gratuities. I recognize the badge of my office as a symbole 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.
