The movie “Training Day” is a simple motif of good cop vs. bad cop. When rookie cop Jake Hoyt, Ethan Hawke, who is escorted by Alonzo Harris played by Denzel Washington through the city of Los Angeles to train his way as a narcotic unit. As the movie progresses Jakes impression of Alonzo was not the idea of being ‘hard’ on the streets, but a sense of corruption, where Jakes attempt to figure out what is justice and what crosses the line in order to protect the community. “Training Day” displays a

I could also explain if the actors could be charged with “conspiracy” or not. I also explained all the elements of the crime as well.

Having an effective orientation and training plan is essential to the success of new employees and the organization as a whole.
