While the actions of Kato are more serious in principle, I would recommend informal reprimand absent specific reason to believe that informal addressing of the matter might be insufficient to achieve the desired result in the future.
Officer Ramos did not violate any ethical or legal standards. His excessive detail in his police report is a routine matter of report writing proficiency common to young officers. Nevertheless, Ramos could be counseled informally as to the need to distinguish between relevant and irrelevant facts, particularly when unnecessary details could potentially expose the department to civil liability or other officers to unnecessary formal departmental scrutiny when informal counseling off the record would suffice to resolve apparent misunderstandings or miscommunications in the field.

Discuss the competing interests involved in this case.
Cases such as the one described here are important to the public because failure to effect arrest where justified, or where specifically required could have grave consequences to public health, safety, and welfare. This is particularly important where the call for service involves physical...
This is precisely the underlying rationale for mandatory domestic violence arrests in many states.
Graves' competing interests consisted of following departmental procedures and state law on one hand, and the desire for the respect of her fellow and more senior officer who was once her FTO. Kato's competing interests where his obligation to follow procedure and law against his sympathy for a neighborly acquaintance. Ramos did not have any competing interests in this case.
Failure to arrest subjects after investigation discloses sufficient evidence of domestic violence could conceivably have tragic results shortly thereafter. Had the arrestee seriously harmed or killed a family member on June 22nd, the failure of Graves to arrest him on June 20th could have had serious ramifications to the department in terms of civil liability.
In a more general sense, both Graves and Kato require reinforcement of the importance of following department policy, procedure, and state law, even in the face of complicated circumstances where sympathy might conflict with execution of duty.
Ethics According to the dictionary definition, ethics refer to the "set of principles of right conduct, or more specifically, "the rules or standards governing the conduct of a person or the members of a profession." Ethics and morals are closely related, but ethics is the term more commonly used in the professional realm, whereas morals generally refer to guidelines for personal behavior. Both ethics and morals are reflections of beliefs and

Moral Realism vs. Moral Relativism Philosophers have argued the merits or existence of moral realism and moral relativism for some time. Generally, the argument is designed as an either or proposition, where only one argument can be true. This is not necessarily true when one takes the time to explore what is meant by moral realism vs. moral relativism (Streitfeld). Essentially, moral realism is an objective view while moral realism is
Moreover, caring for her mother, the other option, would surely: a) create a feeling of being "unfulfilled" which brings with it depression and resentfulness; b) leave her with nothing to look forward to but the dark day when her mother actually passes away; and c) realize after a short time that she is not "a Mother Teresa" and that her live would be diminished (Stuart, 25). What does Stuart believe is
