Oath of Honor
Minimize

In February of 2006 the entire staff of the Platteville Police Department signed the Law Enforcement Oath of Honor.  To date, 108 police departments in the state have become “Oath of Honor” agencies.  This means that each of them had at least 90% of their employees sign the oath. The oath is a reminder of our commitment to our individual communities, to our profession and to our fellow law enforcement professionals.

betray my badge/profession, my integrity, my character or the public trust.
I will always have the courage to hold myself and others accountable for our actions.
