Dishonesty Dishonesty from the police, especially from internal investigations, is significant and absolutely unnacceptable. This issue is not even remotely addressed, and remains a constant and annoying topic in our collective conscience. We leave it up to the Government to assure us an honest, respectful representation from those investigations, and even with civilian oversight, there is obvious favouritism and hence, the need for us to be scrupulous. It is sad testimony about our society. And we all ultimately pay for it, through emotional pain, resentment and ofcourse, our taxes.

Excessive Force A law enforcement officer has the right to use such force as is reasonably necessary under the circumstances to make a lawful arrest. An unreasonable seizure occurs when a law enforcement officer uses excessive force in making a lawful arrest. Whether force is reasonably necessary or excessive is measured by the force a reasonable and prudent law enforcement officer would use under the circumstances. (Lectric Law Library)

Assault and Battery Assault is the threat of bodily harm that reasonably causes fear of harm in the victim. Battery is the actual physical attack on another person. If the victim has been touched by the person committing the crime, this might be battery. If the victim has not actually been touched, but only threatened, then the crime is assault. 

Torture Torture is the act of inflicting excrutiating pain, as punishment or revenge, as a means of getting a confession or information, or for sheer cruelty. (Random House Unabridged Dictionary)
