The war on drugs was an important program of President Duterte, even calling on the Philippine National Police or police officers to kill drug users and dealers to mitigate the drug abuse problem. the Police crackdown affected both the Philippine National Police personnel and the families of the victims of the fatal shooting. Because of this, the study documented the risk experiences of Philippine National Police Personnel during a buy-bust operation and coping mechanisms after a drug operation. Also, Expert Insights were gleaned from their experiences using in-depth interviews and a focus group of 15 Philippine National Police personnel. The results revealed five themes: exposure to deadly and critical situations, dealing with court hearings and lawsuits, being subject to negative public perception, and lacking logistics and community support. The community plays a crucial role in the war against drugs. The implications of the study include the vital role of collaboration and cooperation in the community and other sectors of society. The illegal drugs were prevalent in the community because they did not concern them. Thus, it shows the contribution of police officers in maintaining peace and order in the community.
