Luke William Hunt is a philosophy professor and former FBI Special Agent. In Police Deception and Dishonesty, he evocatively illustrates how the police's widespread use of proactive deception and dishonesty is inconsistent with fundamental norms of political morality. Drawing on his experience, a range of literature, and case studies regarding interrogations, undercover operations, pretextual detentions, and other common scenarios, Hunt makes a compelling case that many proactive tactics erode public faith in the police institution and weaken the police's legitimacy.
