Cut the amount of Tax dollars given to them. Used to, it seemed like the cops drove around with 2 in a car. Now they have their own car that they can take home with them and they want to gripe about not getting paid enough even though they get paid off by drug dealers.

There needs to be more Internal Affairs officers to investigate all the crooked cops and we need non-profit groups like www.policeabuse.org to do more investigations. Most importantly there should be greater concequences for cops breaking the law because too often they get away with crimes that would have sent ordinary citizens to prisons. After the cops get away with a few crimes then they think that they are invinsible. There should be special hot lines that people could call anonymously to report wrongfull or suspicous police behaviour and every claim should be investigated thoroughly.

Well I think you may be taking the actions of a few as a generalization of the actions of the many. I know a few policemen and I don't find them to be corrupt or abusive of power.
At the same time if you want to understand why some my be corrupt or abusive of power consider the job they do VS the compensation they receive.
They are on the front lines protecting us from the worst in our society and the people they protect us from don't follow any rules or code of conduct.
You want to make them better. Then support them better. Vote for tax increases that will help the police, fire and parametic organizations. Tell your elected officials that you want your police supported. Tell your media that your not interested in seeing every miss deed publicized all the time. Cut them a break it's one hell of a tough job.

The actions of a few is no reason to tolerate corruption... write letters of complaint with copies to: the Governor, Attorney General for your state, State legislators for your district, police chief, sheriff, and mayor.... ALL of the above, also local news media. Enough complaints, things start to happen.

Power corrupts. That's it. You need to cleanse the hearts. It's easy said than done. Maybe you can control it. But to wipe out corruption totally, is definately impossible because the world is inhabited by bad people. Haha!

Rampant corruption and abuse...man, that's pretty harsh. Sounds to be like your a disgruntled customer. Sorry to hear that. I think if it were that bad you'd see it plastered all over the place. It's quite unfortunate that isolated incidents give a bad name to police departments and officers all over the country.

If a police department is so corrupt that you cannot even go to internal affairs, then report it to your state's attorney general, or to the federal authorities.

Local involvement in the political process
Support of a free press
Support of existing groups that monitor police actions
A large enough percent of the population that cares

Vote. It is the most civilized non-confrontational way to deal with the problem.
