“3-year-old warrant she says she didn’t know existed and stemmed from a dismissed misdemeanor charge”

I’m guessing this stunt will cost the city something like $2M, too bad the assholes responsible will face no repercussions whatsoever.

You, the citizens are on the hook for what your police do. Perhaps you’d like to push for more of a say in HOW they do what they do. For one thing wouldn’t it be nice if a citizen review board could fire those fuckers? Behavior changes real quick when there are consequences. Which I think is the whole argument for policing in the first place.
