Admitting it and dropping charges was the right thing. The typical response is that they never admit being wrong, no matter how blatant. Admitting you were wrong is almost always a guaranteed loss any civil lawsuit, so they harden their position. Good for this cop.

I have to say that I am definitely impressed. Very rare to see a LEO admit they were wrong.
