If Police Officers finish the Police Academy and pass then why do they act like this?

A federal appeals court today upheld convictions and sentences handed to former Mount Clemens police officers in connection with a 2002 beating of a 24-year-old motorist and a subsequent cover-up.
Five Mount Clemens officers went on trial in federal court in 2004 in connection with the 2002 beating of Robert Paxton following a "road rage" incident that involved an off-duty Mount Clemens officer.
A jury convicted Officer Patrick Carson of depriving a person of his rights and was sent to prison for 3 years, conspiracy to obstruct justice and obstruction of justice. Officer Robert Hey was convicted of obstruction of justice and perjury. Officer Peter Jacquemain was convicted of obstruction of justice, and his brother, Officer Robert Jacquemain, was found guilty of conspiracy to obstruct justice. A fifth officer, Daniel Gerkey, was acquitted of all charges. The Mount Clemens Police were noted for beating people for simple traffic stops. The Police Department was disbanded in 2006. All Officers in the Department were fired.

Because cops are human and have human emotions. They are not robots. What these officers did was wrong and they are paying for it. This by no means represents the vast majority of officers who do their job everyday with honor, dignity, and courage.

Eddyj..yes we are all humans. humanity is measured by how humane we are to each other. I'd say at this point humanity measures short and is hanging by a thread.
