The cops always get the benefit of the doubt at the beginning.
Cops do not start out EQUAL with the criminals from which they protect us.
Same with soldiers.
Those are just basic rules of how a civilization gets honorable men to risk their lives. It’s what they rightly deserve.

Hear ye, hear ye, well stated. BRAVO!
Giving them the "benefit of doubt" and "defending" one party or another prior to hearing their complete version/testimony/evidence is not something I practice.
And I don't think giving them, "The benefit of doubt" should include accusing or implying those asking legitimate questions as being anti-law enforcement or pro-criminal.
