There isn't really such a thing as acting in isolation in a police department. They work together a lot, even in departments that don't do two man patrols. The police are a fraternity. They have a code. At worst, they actively protect and cover up bad actors. At best, they just don't report it. That's why you rarely hear about officers being whistleblowers, or departments doing internal investigations and finding wrongdoing. Things rarely gets past the blue wall. Policing in America is fundamentally broken, from urban areas where people are framed, to rural areas where people are robbed. This doesn't mean that all police are bad, but the culture around policing certainly seems bad.
