I have read about people in that work administering the law and how they break it ALSO! Sorry to burst peoples bubbles but just because you have a badge or sit on a bench and hand out sentances does not mean you are allowed to get away with doing things that the normal civilians go to jail for! But alas it happens more then you think! The only difference is they can hide behind that badge and bench! This is total B.S.!!! What needs to be done is the laws need to modified so that if you are a representitive for the law and you break it you penelty should be double what the average everyday person would get! I mean they are suppose to be doing what's right and follow the law of the nation are they not and to think they can break it and get away with it is worse then some of the crimes the put people in jail for! If they are good people and up hold the law this won't effect them in anyway! It will get the other scum that hides behind the law!

Oh and by the way I am a victim of this!!! So don't go saying it doesn't happen because it happened to me! I just don't have the money to appeal and get it thrown out! It just makes me wonder how many other peoples lives this cop has destroyed with his lies! I also want to say I have friends who are police officers in a few states and they said he is scum to! Not all cops are this way by anymeans I do support them fully it is just the ******* trying to make a name for him or herselve that this applies to!

Penalties aren't going to stop them. Scum are scum and they will find a way around it. Maybe they should be put with all the people who's lives they effected and them do as they WILL. An eye for an eye. It might help afew who still have some morals and ethics hiding deep inside them and if it doesn't then maybe the hurt families will feel better and can go on with their lives.

Sounds like you've been a victim of sorts. There is a higher standard of responsibility for lawyers, judges, police, etc. Its called a preamble and code of ethics. Of course, If one knows the intricacies of the law, the easier it is to break it and not get caught. It's another Catch-22. The best answer lies here;
What a lousy earth! How many winners were losers, successes failures, and rich men poor men? How many wise guys were stupid? How many happy endings were unhappy endings? How many honest men were liars, brave men cowards, loyal men traitors, how many sainted men were corrupt, how many people in positions of trust had sold their souls to blackguards for petty cash, how many had never had souls? How many straight-and-narrow paths were crooked paths? How many best families were worst families and how many good people were bad people? When you added them all up and then subtracted, you might be left with only the children, and perhaps with an Albert Einstein and an old violinist or sculptor somewhere.
Heller once said, "Everyone in my book accuses everyone else of being crazy. Frankly, I think the whole society is nuts and the question is: What does a sane man do in an insane society?"

I would be ok with a mandatory maximum penalty for all officers of the court and members of law enforcement.

The laws and penalties are already in place - abuse of authority under color of law.
