This would be believable if instead of all of these “bad cops” being caught by video, some of them were caught by their fellow officers. Even in obvious cases like that of Jordan Edwards, the officers partner will still lie for them. That is a problem.

So you think you have the moral high ground because you only received what you considered to be stolen goods? That is exactly what government employees are doing, they aren’t going door to door shaking people down. If someone steals a car and sells it to your brother and then he sells it to you, are you not as guilty as your brother for receiving stolen property?
