By suing the police, a person is suing the people who pay for the police, the citizens who pay taxes. I think the police officer should have got a week minimum unpaid suspension if it was his first offense, he was making a poor example for the children of the country.

Not necessarily so. The police officer, by committing perjury on the stand, shouldn't be represented by the City - the limited immunity city officials enjoy is waived when they engage in criminal acts. Lying under oath is a criminal act. It would be interesting to see how the case is captioned, but it should have been pressed against the officer "acting under color of his office". I don't see how the City Administration or any other member of the police department would be a plaintiff under this type of action.
Of course, that doesn't mean the City won't obligate the taxpayers by hiring lawyers and participating in a settlement agreement if their officer is found culpable (guilty). Actual mileage may vary - this is my experience based on the legal system in Texas.

Motorist Rod MacIver was pulled over and given a citation for running a red light despite the officer's dashcam video clearly showing that the light had not yet changed.

That is interesting (if true)...but I think the law considers it a violation only if the light turns red before your vehicle enters the intersection (not during).
