The "Dirty Harry problem" is another label for noble cause corruption, which refers to a situation where a law enforcement officer may break the law in pursuit of what they believe is a just cause, such as stopping a dangerous criminal. The name comes from the Clint Eastwood character "Dirty" Harry Callahan, who often took extreme measures and violated the law in order to catch criminals. "Going 10-100" is police radio code for going to the restroom, and corruption of authority refers to the abuse of power by those in positions of authority.
