My opinion it shouldn’t take three police officer and they can’t detain one suspect with a knife. The company policy does tell the police officer what to do with someone with a knife. I believe the suspect had mental illness going on with her personality. The officer that answered the phone knew something was different with the suspect when she wouldn’t answer his questions. I believe the officer’s response was ethical. The officer used the utilitarianism act. The police officers focus was on the suspect having a knife.

Police officers have vowed their life to protect and serve. They risk their lives every day for their communities.
