Create a national data base of ALL LEOs that list all complaints by citizens and previous discipline actions for every LEO. As it now stands, bad cops can just get hired by another department within the state or out of state.

Of course there is no justice, just us. We can stand up to a reduce the injustice.

While many of these fines are reduced or thrown out. Departments are already finding very hard and expensive to purchase insurance. In some communities there is no longer insurance available at all after a few settlements.Both the fines and insurance cost come back on us and the taxes we pay.

The ultimate responsibility always goes back to an elected official, Sheriff, Mayor and Governor. Make that an issue in electing those that hire and defend bad cops.
