Blue wall of silence
The blue wall of silence, also blue code and blue shield, are terms used to denote an informal code of silence among police officers in the United States not to report on a colleague's errors, misconduct, or crimes, especially as related to police brutality. If questioned about an incident of alleged misconduct involving another officer (e.g., during the course of an official inquiry), when following the code, the officer being questioned will perjure themselves by feigning ignorance of another officer's wrongdoing.
