OATH OF OFFICE
I do solemnly swear
That I will support
The Constitution of the United States,
The Constitution and the Laws
Of the State of Minnesota,
And the Ordinances of the City of Prior Lake,
And that I will faithfully perform
And discharge the duties of Police Officer.
I will never betray my badge, my integrity,
My character or the public trust.
I will always have the courage to hold myself
And others accountable for our actions,
So help me God.
