Actually, most abuse cases don't involve strangers.

You're thinking of a different form of abuse. Absolutely a police officer is more likely to arrest someone whom he does not identify with. That's the type of thing and why police districts try to create some community bond. I've never seen this bond be successful long-term except in small towns where everyone knows each other.
