For you to draw a parallel between a cop abusing his power and access to proselytize, and a missionary strolling up to your door to have a consensual chat is beyond absurd.
They were detained, and then under arrest, by an officer of the law during the time in which they were proselytized. Do you realize that this creates a different situation than one in which a Jehovah's Witness requests that you talk with them at your door, of your own free will, for as long as you feel?
Later, the volunteer cop abused his access to their personal information in order to send them a strange and vaguely threatening letter at their home.
For you to suggest that this is simply a matter of "them having heard something they didn't agree with" is not honest.

The proselytizing officer was way out of line and had no right to impose his beliefs on them.
