While growing up, most of us were given the impression that we could always trust the police.
We were forced by our teachers and other authority figures, to listen to fairy tales about how police are here to protect us and keep us safe.
But now that most of us are grown up, we know that's not always the case.
Unfortunantly for some children, they don't see the reality of law enforcement until it's too late.
This section was created to expose those police officers who have committed crimes against our country's youth. This is a problem that I feel needs to be seriously addressed.
