Police misconduct encompasses situations where law enforcement personnel exceed their authorized powers or infringe upon citizens' constitutional rights through the application of excessive force, unauthorized detention, or other improper conduct. Although the majority of law enforcement officers perform their duties with integrity and professionalism, it remains imperative that those who engage in misconduct face appropriate accountability, particularly in instances where their actions lead to severe physical trauma or loss of life.

This accountability not only serves justice for the victims but also maintains the integrity of law enforcement institutions and public trust.
