The State News editorial regarding the Lansing police officer who was arrested for drunken driving was presumptive and appeared to smear the good work of the majority of law enforcement officers by the alleged wrongdoing of one (“Crooked Cop” SN 10/11). The editorial asked the question, “After Tuesday night’s arrest of a Lansing police officer for drunken driving, how can area police expect people to heed their teaching and demands concerning sober driving?” The answer is the same way readers are expected to believe the veracity of the stories we read in newspapers, despite the fact many journalists have been found to have plagiarized work, falsified information and made up the stories. One person’s misdeeds do not warrant smearing a whole profession. The police officer was arrested, not convicted and until then he is presumed innocent just like any other citizen. Once this incident has been adjudicated in court, then - and only then - should the police department take final disciplinary action. To do otherwise would not be in keeping with the values this country was founded on - due process, freedom of the press, etc. Mentha Manning criminal justice and psychology senior
