It really depends.. there are like 17k police agencies..., assuming that the average is 100 officers per agency that/s 1.7 million... further assuming 1/2 the offenses are bogus, meaning 40k/1700k meaning a 0.02% bad cop.. or 2:100. Given it's a high stress job, which lends to certain personality profiles over others, it's still pretty bad. Now, that's also assuming those infractions are the worst kinds, which most won't be. Repeat offenses within a given timeframe are more serious though. And I'd like to see soft limits on infractions in a ~5yr window leading to automatic dismissal. For that matter, up to 2% of the worst offenders being able to be dismissed per year as policy (this is where the union becomes a problem) as a possibility. There are other things that could improve things, mostly around required camera footage being taken, and publicly accessible. There are of course caveats.
