I have come across a number of ordinary people who ask me if SPPD is really as messed up/corrupt/tainted as officers say it is. My neighbors, folks in stores, and so on bring up this topic when they hear I work at the police dept. In a nutshell, this is why a loyal and hard-working officer turns mute when it comes to defending this place: when injustice becomes law or policy, then rebellion becomes duty.
