Could be an arrest quota. Could be a desire for OT. Could be a desire to make detective. Or a hatred for the suspect. Only the cop knows.

In our anti crime unit they had a quota on how many felonies arrests had to be made monthly. You make less than your quota you would find yourself back on patrol and in uniform. No detective track for you either.

And...thats a problem. Seriously, incentives to cheat will cause it. And criminal charges ruin lives. Its good to see you post this. It makes me happy to see folks involved in law enforcement-even if retired-care about justice.
He's listed as a witness on about 53 other cases as well. One of the reasons I roll my eyes at "crime stats". I'll stop there cuz I could go on a huge rant.

Yes, this happens every day all across the country. LE is off the chain. It gotten truly scary. Folks are better off not calling on LE for anything. There's just no confidence in police any more. If you call them for a crime,they show up and then fish for a reason to arrest you. Sheesh, what's to be done with this?
