"Prostitute? Sex? Abuse?

What am I missing here?"

I am guessing that you are missing a conscience and a sense of right and wrong if you have to ask that question. Hope you aren't a police officer or anyone in a position of authority.

Since a cop is in a position of authority and is supposed to be an example out there on the streets, I would expect him to get punished harder than the average guy. But dirty cops usually get off light.

I saw a story out of Dallas where a cop caught a guy who was running from him on foot, shot him in the back while he was on his knees with hands held high, and then pistol-whipped him after he was cuffed. The cop didn't know that there was a news copter hovering a mile away getting everything on camera. The kicker is: since the perp lived and didn't have any permanent injury, the cop was convicted of misdemeanor assault, was fined a few hundred dollars with no jail time, and was fired. The cop successfully sued to get his job back with full back pay. Makes me sick.
