Even though by now it doesn't really matter, I'm not exactly sure about your points. The point of my posts was that cops can shoot whomever they please and then get a paid vacation, they have very little accountability these days. Of course, there are those who are convicted, and those who do go to trial, ?but the vast majority of cases do not end that way.
Mainly, I'm not sure where you got ?" innocent cops, just trying to do their job with decency and fairness, ?(and they do exist, lots of them) ?should not be condemned or punished for the crimes of the bad ones." because the only thing I said was that cops who DO kill someone should be held accountable.

I'm not completely sure how you mean it's going against common perception. I mean, a cop pursued a criminal, accidentally kills a child, and then is imprisoned for it. Perhaps a bit unfairly? Depends on how harsh the sentence is, but I see nothing that really does what you say.

And yes, what country is it?

Of course, guilty officers should be held accountable. ?But innocent cops, just trying to do their job with decency and fairness, ?(and they do exist, lots of them) ?should not be condemned or punished for the crimes of the bad ones.

In the current climate in the US in regards to law enforcement, the story in the logline swims against the tide of popular perceptions and opinion. ?That's what good drama should dare to do.

Just saying.
