That is because of the union and the fact that unless the exact same crime happened exactly the same way in the same area and the cop has been proven guilty( impossible since it is impossible for exact anything to happen twice) then they are immune from prosecution. A case where a man ran into the woods ( no gun)and a cop shot him in the back when he fell was not charged because that had not happened before exactly that way, then a man ran ( no gun) and fell in a ditch and the cop shot him in the back a few months later same area, because one was shot in the woods, one in a ditch meant that no charges were filed toward either cop for what was out and out cold blooded intentional murder . Only difference was location of the fall.
Please watch Patriot Act - policing on utube or Netflix . It will terrify you once to see the documents proving that convicting or suing a cop is damn near impossible and if you get lucky and charges are made, cops do not get any real punishment for murder or abuse. Victims always get victimized over and over... Time for huge changes!
