It makes one wonder:

Busy, busy. A crooked FBI agent is wreaking havoc with drug cases in DC, rip-off cops get busted in Chicago and Philly, an Alabama cop gets nailed for making a woman cook meth for him, and more. Let's get to it:

In Washington, DC, a federal judge threw out 13 more tainted drug cases last Friday. US District Judge Reggie Walton dismissed 13 criminal indictments against defendants in major drug cases as a scandal around FBI agent Matthew Lowry, 33, continues to unravel. Lowry is accused of tampering with drugs, guns, and other evidence seized in the cases, but he has not yet been charged with any criminal offenses. A day earlier, prosecutors dropped charges against 10 other defendants, some of whom had been serving lengthy prison sentences.

This is what honestly scares me about cops. To make themselves look good, they'll plant/fake evidence, arrest and threaten the quickest suspect they can find and do whatever they can to close a case quickly as possible. Doesn't matter if they've got the wrong guy, as long as their arrest record looks good and they get promoted. Sadly, I have taught my kids to never trust cops, no matter what they say.

The corrupt cops seem to be pretty common. The good ones need to start standing up more. Being the "good German" wins no sympathy from most people.

It seems wrong that LEO's are getting busted on these corruption charges; yet they are constantly found innocent for the killings of citizens and pets.

Stange imho

Yet this is what happens to good cops that try to bring light to corruption...

This Is What Happens When “Good Cops” Call Out Corruption In Their Departments

Carroll County, KY — In another case in point example of why the proverbial “Good Cop” is such a rarity, a Sheriff’s deputy in Kentucky has been fired after blowing the whistle on his department.

Deputy JT Shaw had evidence that the Sheriff, Jamie Kinman, had planted drugs in another deputy’s car, so he blew the whistle and reported it to the state police.

Kinman was indicted last week on the charges of tampering with evidence and official misconduct. Shaw testified against him in front of the grand jury.

The original allegations came back in August and shortly after coming out against Kinman, Shaw was fired.

If this Sheriff was indicted, WTF is he still doing in charge?
It just gives him time to go back, change records and make this Deputy look guilty.

This is why I never talk about the number of good to bad police. The amount of good to bad does not matter. It's not a position you want even 1% being bad, cause of the amount of damage they can cause. Its bad for the police and bad for the people, no one wins but the corrupt. Also for the fact that the bad ones won't follow the rules that the good ones are limited by. But take away the limits won't fix anything it'll just remove the limits off the bad ones as well.

As they say "locks only stop the honest".
