It is claimed that through psychological testing and background checks, police departments are better able to filter out unsuitable applicants. However, the less-than-perfect reliability of such tests, as well as loose entrance requirements by individual police departments, present opportunities for applicants with Antisocial Personality Disorder to make their way into policing. Simply, there is no guarantee that these individuals do not or cannot exist within the police population. This research will suggest that police officers with traits of Antisocial Personality Disorder exist, that the types of behavior displayed have become increasingly violent, and the possibility that such traits may well have been acquired through the police subculture and its easy access to deviance. This insight is offered by the one of the authors who is retired from the New Orleans Police Department.  aPolice  aRuiz, Jim  aInternational Journal of Public Administration  a56672  c56672d56672  00104070aIIPAbIIPAd2018-07-19hVolume no: 26, Issue no: 7pAR57117r2018-07-19w2018-07-19yAR
