No. A Police Chief should not promote an Officer with special skills to a supervisory position.
Explanation:
There is a rule for succession. A Police Officer must have served a certain time in rank, and pass a test to be considered. Anything outside of this would have needed to be approved by a higher level of government or it could be seen as preferential treatment which is an ethics violation. Police officers usually become eligible for promotion after a probationary period.
To be a police officers you have to follow a special code of conduct and behavior, making it much different from other professions. The job of a police officer requires much mental toughness, physical fitness, and a level of ethics and morals not every individuals have. In order to for an officer to be promoted into a supervisory position, I feel that the officers up for advancement needs to be able to show a good track record of conduct and behaviors. I feel this can only be achieved through time spent “in rank”
They are both right because Barack Obama was the one who elected the justices into the Supreme Court but they are of course in no way connected to Barack Obama except for the fact that he was the one who elected them into the court.
