      I’ve been saying it for 2 fucking decades now.

      Settlements for misdeeds should come out of the police pension fund. and take that motherfucker into the negatives. force it to take out loans and sell off investments, to cover every single settlement.

      See how long they last enjoying their gratifying abuse of the peasantry when their pension fund is 370 million dollars in the hole, and no ones getting a dime.

        Solve this the American way and it will be politically easier. Just require them to carry malpractice insurance like doctors do. The problem would be solved overnight, insurance won’t cover the bad apples.

        It’d also be interesting to see how the group dynamics play out when the real shitty cops start costing the simple enablers money out of their own retirement pockets….
