Yeah, police falsifying evidence should carry the same penalties as the crime they falsified evidence for and a guaranteed firing. This country treats cops with a bizarre level of leniency

Certainly if they falsified a federal crime, the penalty shouldn't be any less than wire fraud, which is up to 20 years in prison.
