Officer Jarrod Martinez #19081 (June 9, 1979 - October 29, 2009)

Officer's Creed


I, a member of the California

Highway Patrol, subscribe in word

and deed to the following:


To serve the United States of America and

the State of California honestly, and

conscientiously; and fulfill my oath as a

solider of the law; to uphold and

maintain the honor and integrity of the

California Highway Patrol;


Be loyal to my fellow officers;

respect and obey my seniors in rank;

and enforce the law without fear,

favor, or discrimination;


Assist those in peril or distress, and, if

necessary, lay down my life rather than

swerve from the path of duty;


My personal conduct shall at all times

be above reproach and I will never

knowingly commit any act that will

any way bring discredit upon the California

Highway Patrol or any member thereof;


To all this I do solemnly pledge my

sacred honor as an Officer of the

California Highway Patrol.
