QUIS CUSTODIET IPSOS CUSTODES: Who Watches the Watchmen?

More cop rape, this time in Miami. The trigger-happy Philadelphia police force is also getting in on some rape, too (note how the article says that this is only the most recent accusation). Finally, while it's not exactly about cop misconduct, it is worth noting that famed Harvard Law School professor and civil rights advocate Alan Dershowitz is now also an advocate of torture. That is to say, one of the most articulate spokesmen of the last two decades against police brutality, corruption, and misconduct has gone to the other side. With civil rights friends like these, who needs enemies?

Thanks once again to J. Orlin Grabbe for the link.
