This is good news. I am a fan of good policing, but we are all in trouble when the police abuse their authority. In order to insure that we all live in a free society we all have to be equally concerned about the constitutional rights of every one of our fellow citizens. Allowing the policing agency of the police to be ineffective in rooting out problem officers undermines the entire justice system, weakens the trust and faith we all have in the police and cause the communities that fall victim to abuse of power most often to see the police as an enemy.
