Sociologically speaking, how would this changes things for the area in which the power-abusing law enforcement members worked and for law enforcement in general?

They often find themselves on the other side of the law .. Depending on the offense.

getting arrested is the first thing that´s gonna happen. Depending on the animal´s condition and how long the animal has been suffering you can be taken to court, be fined a large amount money, the animal will most likely be taken away from the owner if they have not provided the necessary vet care and basic care needed, and sometimes even be banned from owning an animal for long periods of time. And the worst part is that some animals that go through animal abuse have to be put down because they mentally can´t handle the real world where real people want to get to know and take care of them. They think that they´re going to be abused again and refuse to socialize because of that fear. If you think that someone is abusing their animal and its really bothering you inside you should call the ASPCA and have them look into it. If you do nothing, nothing will be done and that will remain in your conscious. Hope this helps.

When it becomes pervasive it destroys the entire spectrum of criminal justice institutions at every level.
The police become exploiters, rather than guardians of law.
The courts become a meat grinder to feed the prison machine and the lawyer monster.
The individual caught inside becomes a product.
As illustrated by the War on Drugs. The river of money sweeps it all away.

Well first there has to be a complaint made in an official way and Internal Affairs, Citizen Committee and/or the Police Board or Commissioners will review it after the Police Chief has a chance to monkey with it for a while. You can call the city or county for the appropriate action to take in your area.

They should be, but are not always, punished more harshly for their crime then if they had been a civilian. Cops have a responsibility to the people for protection and guidance so it is worse for them to commit a crime than a normal person.
