And they won't be the last. 99% of LEOs are good ppl who uphold their oath & do a thankless job. Why would they continue to do it if they're receiving even more hate? While being shamed & smeared for the actions of a few bad apples? I mean would you do that job?

Then why is there a culture of cover-up, support, and sweeping under the rug of various violations, actions, and attitudes b/w fellow officers? I’m not denying there are countless amazing policemen and women across the country. W/ that said, there appears to be no accountability
