Summary
In Police Deception and Dishonesty, Luke William Hunt—a philosophy professor and former FBI special agent—argues that many of our assumptions about policing and security are unjustified.
Through a rich discussion of literature and case studies, he shows that there are compelling reasons to think that the police's widespread use of proactive deception and dishonesty is inconsistent with fundamental norms of political morality—especially norms regarding fraud and the rule of law. Although there are times and places for dishonesty and deception in policing, Hunt evocatively illustrates why those times and places should be much more limited than current practices suggest.
