If I understand correctly, the argument against seems to be that bad and unfair arrests will be used as the basis for future arrests, convictions and sentencing. I think that's a valid point. The article goes on to make the case that the entire process is inherently unsalvageable, which I find less than convincing, but I also am not sure that I trust US police to get it right This article is also in the context of recent rioting and calls to defund the police, versus data that indicate the basis for these calls is perhaps not so clear-cut It is a conundrum
