Law enforcement officers ______ accept any gratuities or gifts for services rendered in the exercise of their official business.

Must
Can
May
CANNOT

The correct answer is: CANNOT

Law enforcement officers CANNOT accept any gratuities or gifts for services rendered in the exercise of their official business. This means that it is not permissible for officers to receive any rewards or favors for performing their duties. Option A, Must, implies that officers are required to accept gratuities, which is incorrect. Option B, Can, suggests that officers have the choice to accept or decline gratuities, which goes against the principle of impartiality and can lead to unethical behavior. Option C, May, indicates that officers have the opportunity to accept gratuities, which is also incorrect as it is against the code of conduct for law enforcement officers. Therefore, Option D, CANNOT, is the only correct choice as it accurately represents the prohibition of receiving any gratuities or gifts for services rendered.
