Noble Cause Corruption //
词　形：
Definition: Notion held by police officers that it is justifiable to fabricate or artificially improve evidence to secure the conviction of a known criminal.

Derivation: Noble cause corruption was coined by Edwin DeLattre in Character and Cops: Ethics in Policing (Washington, DC: American Enterprise Institute, 1989), Ch 11. Popularised in the UK in September 1992 by Sir John Woodcock, Chief Inspector of Constabulary, England and Wales.
Citation: "To go back to corruption for one moment, one aspect is what is known as noble cause corruption.
