While most officers are hardworking professionals, some are downright abusive. As an advocate for civil rights and police accountability, it is quite disturbing to know that such gross misconduct still comes easily to some officers. To protect yourself and your constitutional rights, it is very important to know your rights and make smart choices in tough situations. Some of my favorite resources dealing with abuse by law-enforcement:
Submit a Law Enforcement Abuse Complaint Form:

Just Say "NO" to Police Searches:

www.youtube.com "The Citizens Guide To Surviving Police Encounters"

The Police Complaint Center documents and investigates alleged incidents of police abuse. Their primary service is assisting victims of police misconduct with reporting complaints to appropriate enforcement agencies. They also investigate police and sheriffs deputies that are accused of misconduct and abusive behaviors.
Hope it helps!
