Unfortunately there are bad cops who, like this policeman took “justice” into his own hands. What he did only made the millions of GOOD cops have to carry that burden of suspicion with them for the rest of their careers. He needed to be given a tougher sentence.
What do you mean, needs to be given a tougher sentence? He wasn't sentenced at all.
He needed to be given ANY sentence, and terminated. He should never wear a blue uniform again.
