Most police and public safety officers are dedicated to their mission of protecting and serving the community in accordance with the law. They have a lot of responsibility and their work is often difficult and dangerous. Their days can be stressful and that stress can sometimes lead to poor decision-making. Additionally, improper training, screening, or supervision of officers may leave them ill-equipped to deal with some situations. And some law enforcement officers, due to their psychological makeup or other factors, should never have been allowed to become cops in the first place.
While law enforcement personnel have a great deal of power and control over citizens' lives, that power is limited by our United States Constitution and other laws. When law enforcement officer crosses the line and violates protected rights, that violation may also cause physical injury, emotional turmoil, medical expenses, disability, and other losses.
