The Journal (Republic of Ireland) 20/6/2024 News Turnover Intentions of Police Officers when Facing Discretionary Ethical Dilemmas: The Explanatory Roles of Professional Disillusionment and Job Stress The present research investigates the impact of discretionary ethical dilemmas encountered by police officers in the workplace on their intentions to leave the profession. Doing so, it distinguishes three types of discretionary ethical dilemmas faced by police officers (professional, individual, and conflicting ethical dilemmas). Findings suggest that two out of the three types of dilemmas, namely professional and individual dilemmas, increase police officers’ turnover intentions. In addition, the study shows that the effect on turnover intentions is mediated by an increase in professional disillusionment and job stress, with professional disillusionment playing a stronger role. This emphasizes the importance of exploring professional disillusionment in understanding police turnover. We discuss the implications of our findings at two levels, that of ethical dilemma prevention and that of the measures that should be taken to help police officer face the inevitable discretionary ethical dilemmas they will encounter on the field. Police Quarterly - Subscription at source 20/6/2024 Research article Policing child abuse in Kenya—Perspectives from the frontline Child abuse in Kenya continues to present a prominent and ongoing concern. Complicated by challenges of cultural rationalization, leading to an unclear understanding of its prevalence and typologies. This study produces insights from interviews with 20 police child protection officers in Kenya to gain previously unexplored police practitioner perspectives on the typologies and underlying causes of child abuse. Notably types of child abuse identified included intra-familial sexual abuse, exploitation, and female genital mutilation (FGM) and escalating online child abuse. Identifiable causes encompassed poverty, cultural practices, and ineffectiveness and corruption within the criminal justice system—the same areas where we are not seeing enough change. Recommendations arising as a result of the study include the necessity for intensified focus and prioritization of child abuse within Kenyan policing and wider government strategies, NGO programs that aim to alleviate poverty through life-based necessities, increased cultural sensitization, and tackling corruption.
