minus-squareXtalllllinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4·11 months agoGood cops can only exist until they come in contact with a bastard cop. When a police officer beats someone to death or shoots an unarmed motorist or steals drugs from the evidence room, there is often at least one witness: Another cop At that point the good cop either becomes complisit in the cover up and is no longer a good cop, or they report it in which case they will be excluded, fired, harassed, sent to dangerous situations without backup, or die under unusual circumstances.
minus-squareFrowingFostek@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·11 months agoYeah, I think that can apply to the people of a police department. We don’t really have a uniform guideline for policing. I’m sure there are best practices but, I’m unaware of a standardized protocol for all departments nationwide.
