What's the police code and procedure for my screenplay?

[harmonica]

In my screenplay, during a police chase, two of the cops are bad and are actually out to kill an innocent suspect, who they originally framed. They wanna shoot him when they get a chance and make it look like it was justifiable. One of the cops figures this out and knows who the two bad ones are. He has to get on the radio and announce to all the other police in pursuit who the bad cops are.

Now in the movies, the cops never know what to do about this sort of thing. However, in real life, I'm guessing there is a procedure that can call in, that will bring a police chase or an operation, to a halt if there are killer cops secretly about, and have every cop detained until it is all figured out. I have no idea, but guessing there is some procedure like that. If there is, what is it called and how does it work? And it would help if I could get the police code for it. Thanks.

You think there is a secret police code that we use when bad cops are in a pursuit of someone they want to catch and kill who is innocent?

Police codes vary so much that even if there were such a thing (there isn't) it would be different depending on state and locality.

Something that rare and complicated is best done in plain talk to avoid any confusion.

And how on earth would "all the cops be detained until they could sort it out?" Who exactly would detain them?

I believe that's a 10-43...

They would just detain themselves indvidually. God do you know anything about police work?

Our agency uses the ID-10t code.

Our agency uses the ID-10t code.

That's a good call by your agency. The ID-10t codes are universal and easily recognized by virtually all law enforcement.

Same with ours.

I also wondered who would detain all the cops...

[harmonica]

I'm guessing after the one cop who knew who was bad told the officer in charge, the officer in charge would then radio all the other cops to abort everything and come back to the station to figure it out. If any cops didn't cooperate they could just send out other cops to detain them maybe? I dunno how it works in real life. However in my script then one cop that tells the officer in charge what's going on, is a from a different police organization does not have any jurisdiction. Are the other cops legally required to listen to him if he has no jurisdiction, if it means that bad cops are among them and it's an emergency?

Wow. I really am not even sure where to start here...

How does an officer from another jurisdiction become an "officer in charge" of guys that don't have to listen to him?

If a lot of officers are involved in a pursuit from several jurisdictions, then they aren't all just going to stop because a cop says he thinks two of the officers are dirty. They may alert all the officers, they may order the two dirty cops to come back to the station, but two cops being dirty does not override whatever the suspects are wanted for in the first place. There's a reason they are chasing the suspects in the first place, after all.

Don't take this personally, Harmonica, but with as far behind the curve as you seem to be on the most basic of police procedures, I have to wonder if you would be better served with a screenplay about topics with which you are more familiar...

I am impressed. You are going to try to reason with him?

Citi,

You need to speak louder, having a tin foil hat covering one's ears makes one hard of hearing.

[pac201]

reps Kimble!!!

[deputywave]

I dunno how it works in real life.

Slight understatement.

I see your screenplay going straight to Beta.

[Curt581]

The code for your screenplay is 10-200

I think you should rewrite it as a musical.

[DCF]

Our agency uses the ID-10t code.

What concerns me; we've given the secret ID-10 code where just anyone can read it. Is the secret handshake next??????????
