There has to be a component of individual responsibility. I agree the City Leaders are ultimately responsible but there is already a law against planting evidence. If the cop doesn’t pay a criminal and civil penalty there is nothing to stop them.

It's the elected District Attorney who decides whether or not to file charges and prosecute the case.
If the electors don't hold him responsible, then no one will.
