Jail overcrowding is partly the result of many LEOs making unnecessary arrests that could be handled differently. Even when the arrest is legit, a lot of other options were there instead of a on scene arrest.
In my troop, rookies take everybody to jail for any little thing they can. It’s like a power trip. Petty stuff like one FR suspension, shake on the floor, never had a DL, went to hospital before reporting a crash, etc.
The mandatory “must charge” requirement in the policy for anything criminal should be looked at.
