"Booom .... Halt!"
That police force has been rogue and a disgrace to their uniforms for a long time. Dragnet was pure PR.
Reminds me of walking patrols with Iraqi’s. We had to constantly tell them not to beat detainees that were in cuffs.
They couldn’t understand this and argued that beating detainees without cuffs made no sense to them. They thought we were crazy.
It just never dawned on them not to beat detainees.
