how many bad apples does it take to spoil the whole thing?

neither would i. i'm not making excuses, i'm merely pointing out that it is not just police. i'm trying to get you to see the error of your ways by blaming all police for the actions of a few. without police, this nation would be in virtual anarchy.
and with police, this country used to be tyrannical. and you're unfortunately thinking I blame all police for the actions of more than a few. those that do nothing in the face of obvious criminal action by their comrades are just as bad as the perpetrators. It's an implicit acknowledgement that they believe them to be above the law. something this country wasn't founded upon.
 
looks like I was proven wrong, although the sentence is extremely lenient for a serial rapist.

The end of 2013 brought a measure of closure to a long-running Milwaukee police scandal, though some say the officer — and his cohorts — who repeatedly and illegally shoved his fingers up black male suspects’ anal cavities got off with a light sentence considering the flagrant nature of his abuses.

The ringleader was identified as officer Michael Vagnini, a white man who routinely targeted black males as young as fifteen for sadistic — and blatantly illegal — anal searches.

One victim said that another officer put a gun to his head while Vagnini administered a choke hold, touched his scrotum and fingered his anus. Another man was probed so violently that he bled.

Wisconsin law clearly prohibits police officers from administering cavity searches. Only medical professionals may do so, and only when authorized by a warrant.

But lack of a warrant or a medical degree did not stop Vagnini from sticking his fingers inside a 15-year-old boy’s anus and touching his genitals during a traffic stop in December of 2011.

The Journal Sentinel documented at least a dozen similar instances of Vagnini performing invasive, illegal searches on black men.

For his crimes, Vagnini will serve a little over two years in jail.

As part of a plea deal accepted earlier this year, he admitted his guilt on four felony and four misdemeanor charges, earning 26 months in jail. The sexual assault charge was voided by the deal, allowing Vagnini to avoid having to register as a sex offender.
