That’s the ultimate idea but since we have elected government as intermediaries between us and managing the police we need to fix the one in order to fix the other.

But if a mcdonalds worker rapes a customer, do we deal with Ronald or with the actual rapist?

Just locking up the cops involved would solve a lot of problems.

If a cop kills someone and the other cops drag their feet on the investigation and then the prosecutors sandbag the case in front of the grand jury, what can I random citizen do?

We need politicians that can and will hold these departments accountable for their performance, including their performance when investigating crimes by cops.
