A previous (now domed) thread touched on some good issues involving the filing of complaints against LOE. There were some good points but it devolved into this...
It's important to understand the ramifications of filing complaints. LOE are a tight-knit group.
That's why they call it the
Fraternal Order of Police. They stick together and weak complaints might cause blowback for everyone else. If you want to file a complaint it might be a good idea to get hive feedback. I'm not saying that they don't do wrong, bad cops gets what they deserve in prison, but make sure your case is strong before proceeding. Of course, you're an individual and can do whatever you want.
