Best Answer

It depends on the particular department. The general opinion among police officers is that the term is used too much and is used as a weapon by criminals and people with agendas. Usually, there is an internal affairs or professional standards office within the department. They investigate ALL police shootings to determine if they were justified, and any complaints from the general public.

Law enforcement's answer to police brutality is often to turn the other cheek. This is commonly known as the "Blue Wall of Silence" which unfortunately happens way too often.
