I really do think that the days of corrupt cops are nearing an end.
I was going to post something along these lines:

Thanks, Tully.
Also, with this economic downturn there is a trend of more potential cops trying to get into the service who have college degrees. At least that's what I've heard from friends who are attempting to get involved in police... in many areas (with low levels of violent crime), a high school diploma is no longer enough to make the cut. I think that the fact that departments are able to be picky would also impact the amount of corruption...
