We agree on that. I just sadly doubt that he walks the walk about turning in bad cops. And I believe he has underestimated the number of bad cops.

I read two recent reports on the NYC police misconduct board which suggest an extremely lenient system

NYPD Discipline Review Panel Found Dozens of Cops Deserved More Serious Punishment - THE CITY

My Family Saw a Police Car Hit a Kid on Halloween. Then I Learned How NYPD Impunity Works. — ProPublica

I think that second link, to propublica is especially worth reading.
