Kansas Bill Seeks to Legalize Police Retaliation

34. As a civil servant you live under different standards

And in an ideal world you might have a point. I am talking of real cases here. You think our officer in question would have faced the judge if the first complainant was sued by the officer 14 years ago? Remember she was wrong and without merit until oops, she was right? Also remember statue for criminal complaint has expired.

Departments like to cover for officers. Why? To be kind, they hate to admit there is any form of cronyism (that be officer two) or that the psychological and background check failed to weed bad apples. (That be all three officers) Of that perhaps internal culture is at issue here as well. (There are allegations against a supervisor teaching field trainees bad behavior. Super has since retired by the way)

For a well known case that was massive see LAPD Rampart Division scandal, that also emerged from baseless public complaints until...oops the FBI and DOJ got involved. The department is still under Federal Supervision.

This law has bad idea and potential for abuse written all over it.
