I was just threatened by a police officer tonight. The guy has been a good friend of my brothers for 20 years and a friend of mine for 18 years. He is also married to a client of mine. Last month, I dealt with an officer that is under investigation for assaulting/battering his ex-wife and kids and threatening a fellow police officer. While he was doing all this stuff, he received the LEO of the year award. Just like everybody else, there are good and bad of everything. Problem with LEO's is that they have a gun and they know the legal system somewhat decently. A corrupt garbage collector isn't too bad because they don't have enough power to make your life miserable, but a corrupt LEO, Judge, or politician can cause you some serious problems. Any job with power involved that can affect other people's lives significantly should require lie detector tests every so often.
