Significado de la ética policial ante la confiscación de bienes provenientes del delito de tráfico de drogas

Abstract

In Falcon's territory, policies have been increased to act against the commission of the crime of drug trafficking and, by law, the Venezuelan State has the power to confiscate the assets derived from it during the development of the criminal investigation. However, when property is altered, destroyed or disappeared within this act of criminal justice, a serious vice is incurred that affects the credibility of anti-drug police agencies and the actual confiscation of such property, Therefore, it was necessary to study the ethics of police officers who have the responsibilities of intervening in the confiscation of property and effectively achieving the culmination of due process. In view of the above, it was proposed to interpret the meaning of deontology, through an experiential interpretative research through qualitative methods such as phenomenology, for this five key informants with experience in this judicial process were selected who expressed the need for a protocol from the ethical deotonological conception of the criminal investigation officer inserted within a continuous specialized technical training for the police officer. On the other hand, the research was framed in the third line of UNES research: Police, Criminal, Forensic and Criminological Sciences, which stipulates the study of the police and criminal context to guarantee citizen security.
