Yes Nir has made a good suggestion.
Police kill people all the time. Hence constant protests in the USA. Earlier this year an Aussie woman in America called the Police for help and was gunned down by the cops, oops, forgot to put my camera on....
Australia is perhaps the safest place on earth. I have worked in Law Enforcement, I know there is corruption in all organisations. It's naive to think otherwise.
What foxtrot25 and Nir Shelter said.
And in the US it's becoming SOP that cops must also use? body cameras, turn them on every time they confront a suspect.? Or have a damn good alibi to account for the gap in their camera log.? But maybe it's different in urban Australia, assuming that's where the story is set.
It is plausible that a rookie officer may face an ethical and legal dilemma;? that's a rite (or wrong) of passage in police work. I know; I've been there, faced that.?
But? I suggest that the objective goal needs a stronger focus that "get out of this".
Also,? what does "kidnap" mean in the context of the story?? What's the time frame.? PO's have latitude to hold suspects in their custody for hours if they have "probable cause".? So what is the difference between that and kidnapping in this story?
