For illegal actions, they should be investigated, judged and if necessary, punished. Just as regular citizens would be for such actions. Being in law enforcement does not mean you get extra slack when violating a law, it means you enforce the law. But if a police officer violates the law, they diminished the rule and respect for the law. > the evidence is discarded, giving them a strong incentive to follow the rules. I don't think that is a strong incentive at all. Such absurd exception from law enforcement is so advantageous to the criminal elements in the police and the government that they will use it to their advantage. A situation where one part of government is allowed to violate the law by another part of government with no law enforcement action means the checks and balances aren't working.
