Law enforcement should be held to a higher standard, and this kind of violation of trust and abuse of power deserves far more than just the punishment for a DUI. The DUI punishment should be stacked on top of whatever she can be charged with for this act itself: false arrest, filing false reports, falsifying evidence, etc. And there should be no allowance for serving those sentences concurrently.
It’s all of them though. Some might not do things like this but there’s no doubt they cover for the ones that do. That’s why we say ACAB.
There’s nothing I can think to be done but dismantle the entire organization and destroy the gangs er I mean unions. Then we can start fresh with all new people, new (and extensive) training, and a completely different culture.
Seems impossible. Anyone got an idea for a way to get there?
I say ban qualified immunity, force every cop to have their body cameras turned on at all times (except for when they use the bathroom), have weekly/biweekly training, etc.
Unless you can prove in a court of law that another cop was told by another court not to dump booze in another victim’s car, then arrest them for it, then there is no way we can expect her to have known this was wrong! (Qualified Immunity)
Cops don’t have to know the laws they’re paid to enforce. (Heien v. North Carolina)
Cops have no legal duty to protect you (DeShaney v. Winnebago County Department of Social Services, Castle Rock v. Gonzales)
More than that.

But it probably won’t happen.
The real question is, what can we do? This type of shit needs to stop, I’m so tired of cops like this!

Knowingly arresting someone based on false evidence should be charged federally as kidnapping.

Oh it absolutely won’t. You have to have a reasonable expectation.
