North Dakota law contains a
detailed Code of Conduct and Oath of Office that its peace
officers must vow to uphold. That applies to the Morton County,
ND, Sheriff, his deputies, and reinforcements from other
sheriff's departments who are working temporarily for the Morton
County Sheriff's Department or any city, county, or state law
enforcement agency within the state of North Dakota.

As anyone with eyes who has read
North Dakota's "Peace Officer Code of Conduct and Oath" can see
from the videos that have been recorded and published via
Facebook, various Web sites, and other online media outlets, the
Morton County Sheriff, his deputies, and outside deputies called
in as reinforcements have repeatedly violated virtually every
stipulation in the Peace Officer Code of Conduct and Oath, as
stipulated in Chapter 109-02-05, subsections 109-02-08-01 and
109-02-08-02. The photocopy of that Code of Conduct and Oath is
displayed below. The
Morton County Sheriff's Department, including its sheriff, its
deputies, and reinforcements brought in from other sheriff's
departments must be held accountable by a
federal court for their violation of not just their own
state-mandated code of conduct and oath, but also the violation of
the Indigenous American people's federal Constitutional, civil,
and human rights, as well as for their terrorist tactics,
intentional intimidation, threats, and multiple counts of both
verbal and physical assault.
The Morton County Sheriff's
Depatment and the county jail personnel must also be held
accountable for unnecessary humiliation of strip searches for
misdemeanor charges, and in some cases intentionally causing
some detainees to spend hours nude in a jail cell before
providing a means of covering themselves. This is especially
true of female detainees, as testimony from numerous detainees
has established.
