I certainly hope (and believe) that most cops aren't bad. I suspect that most want to help their communities and the rest just want to do a job.
I would say that cops are rarely bad, but the few cases we know of should be cause for concern.
I think that when an officer violates the law, he or she should be punished for the offense as well as for violating the public trust. Violating one's position as an entrusted official has the potential to create more damage than a personal offense as it could adversely effect the social structure and belief system in terms of police legitimacy if not addressed.
