From the second article:

Apparently the dispute was over the division of reward money.

You know, there are people out there who put the cops on a pedestal, and assume they can do no wrong.

But whenever I hear that line of reasoning, I automatically think of the Rampart Scandal - or the name of Frank Serpico pops into mind.

Of course there are bad cops; that goes without saying. But police corruption - or abuse of power - are very bad things that cause a lot of problems in the long run.
