It's just super hard to prosecute police, because who do you report the misconduct to? If you go to the officer's police dept, they laugh at you. If you go to the local prosecutor -- well, they need the police to give them cases and evidence -- they laugh at you. If you try to go to the Sheriff, they laugh at you. If you go to the State Police or the FBI they tell you they don't have the resources and you need to go the police dept or prosecutor.
It's an unwinnable game. The only way to get traction is with media coverage.
