We really oughta figure out a way to take the money from the entire police department's pension fund instead in these types of situations. Give the "good apples" a reason to hold the bad ones accountable, or they'll never do it.

Here's a crazy idea: Force police unions to pick up the tab for all monetary liabilities caused by their fellow member officers.

It will cause one of two positive outcomes

  1. The police union goes on strike, causing mass replacement and/or disbanding of the police union in general or

  2. They clean their house of garbage/corrupt/psychopathic cops and bring accountability to their doorstep.

I hope losing his pension is one of the things the prosecutors will attempt to achieve.
