Likewise if the officer has been found to have used excessive force, convicted of domestic violence or convicted of other offenses involving violence then they must have a red patch attached to their uniform to alert citizens that the officer has a history of unwarranted violence.

How many patches does a cop get? Do you think putting patches on a uniform will make a cop stop being a cop?
