Not,defending the guys politics, but cops often get falsely accused all the time- they deal with the worst scum on earth on a daily basis, and arrest many drugged out zombies who lie for a living. The accusers are hardly the bastions of truth that agendists make them out to be, and the sleazy lawyers that represent the accusers are even more despicable really.
Defiling out justice system is the lowest of the lows.
