    Something about the police strikes me as odd. If a judge can stay uncorrupted by power, why cant police? Assuming that this is the reason for their actions.

      The problem isn’t straight-out corruption.

      It’s wonky incentivation.

      Judges that are not measured by how many people they send to jail will always be, on average, less trigger-happy than cops who are.
