Humans are not perfect, that make mistakes and errors of judgement.
Coppers are humans. Coppers can use force, and tasers. Things can end very badly if you don't do what they ask of you. Being surprised or outraged by any of this is pretty bloody fatuous.

Humans can also be thugs, bullies, ignoramuses and racists.
One would hope there'd be something in the recruitment and induction of people into responsible public serving roles that would weed out those traits. But apparently not.
