There is some corruption in law enforcement. And most agencies (at least out here in the midwest take it very seriously and will punish or even prosecute officers that violate the law).

In the age of the internet and 24 hour news, police misconduct is more widely televised. One incident a day may seem like a lot, until you figure...there are a million police officers in this country. The percentage is quite low.

If you compare law enforcement today to law enforcement 30 years ago. You will see that over the years corruption has drastically decreased.

I think police are corrupt and can prove it. State tampering with states evedance and judges let them do it. I was charged with 30 years with zero physical evidance. Through a jury trial I won. It's a high dollar business run by threats and intimidations by officers and county attourney's office, and backed up by judges, forcing citizens into signing thereself in jail guilty or not. Why? because the county's all need paychecks and state officials need payed. Not just a little either. They get paid very good to TAKE your money. Plus the government pays them money they need that you pay in your state and federal taxes. Not very nice people are they. This is not spam. I am proof of all this.

there is corruption every where i'v known a few corrupt cops they were not big time bad,just a little bent,but i'v met a lot crooked panel beaters,mechanics,builders,painters the list is endless. It's just that a cop is in a position of trust ,its like someone taking money out of the till it makes it worse because you trust them to use it,what about the people that come out to fix your tv,i wish they would wear a mask at least that would be honest robbery.

Of course a small amount are corrupt. But for the better part, they are here to serve and protect.

I believe most want to serve and protect but some do let it go to their heads and end up putting a black-eye on the rest. The only way to deal with this is stiff and harsh punishment for those that abuse their positions of authority.

Some people are corrupt. Some corrupt people are police.

Overall, most police do what is necessary to be effective in doing their jobs.

There are always going to be bad apples-but the vast majority of cops I've known (quite a few for some reason) are honestly good hearted and try to help.
They sure aren't in it for the pay!

I do my job. I have never taken a dime I haven't earned. and by the time I take the dime, I have actually worked about 25 cents worth.

I think it depends on the cop. I don't think you can make a sweeping generalization here...there are both good cops and corrupt ones.
