Metro Nashville Police Captain Jason Reinbold found himself confronting a citizen on the public bike path behind his home this week. During the interaction, he was confrontational, asking the small children with the female citizen to say profanity with him, called the lady a ‘Karen’, and threatened to turn the sprinklers on them to get them to leave the bike path, after accusing them of being homeless.

Metro Nashville Police issued the following statement regarding the incident: “We are aware of a cell phone video from earlier in the week that depicts Captain Reinbold in the backyard of his own home, which is not in Davidson County. That video is under review by the MNPD. “

Section 4.20 of the MNPD Manual covers off-duty behavior. The department defines ‘deportment’ as “the way a person conducts one’s self or the behavior of a person”.

4.20 Deportment and Personal Appearance

In order to ensure the professionalism of the police department, it shall be the policy of the Metropolitan Police Department to establish and maintain the highest standards of conduct and appearance. All employees of the department will conduct themselves in a way that reflects credit upon themselves and the department, both on and off duty.

Section D further clarifies ‘Conduct Unbecoming of an Employee of the Department’:

D. Conduct Unbecoming an Employee of the Department

The conduct of department employees, on- or off-duty, may

reflect directly or indirectly upon the Department, therefore, a

police department employee’s ability to perform his or her duties

is dependent upon the respect and confidence communities have

for the representatives of the law enforcement agency in

general. A police officer is the most conspicuous representative of

government, and to the majority of the people, the officer is a

symbol of stability and authority upon whom they can rely. An

officer’s conduct is closely scrutinized, and when the officer’s

actions are found to be excessive, unwarranted, or unjustified,

they are criticized far more severely than comparable conduct of

persons in other walks of life. Employees shall at all times conduct themselves in a manner

which does not bring discredit to themselves, the Department, or

the City. Conduct that is inconsistent with the provisions within

this policy shall be considered a violation.

MNPD Manual Section G further states that “Employees shall be courteous, civil, and respectful to all persons…”

MNPD Manual Section J (Profanity) concludes “Employees shall not use abusive, indecent or profane language or gestures in the workplace, in the performance of their duties or in the presence of a member of the public”

MNPD Manual Section O (Self-Control) states: “Employees shall not argue unnecessarily with any person or otherwise show a lack of self control.
