Cuffed in the back of a van with no seatbelts. You can get a ticket for not wearing a seatbelt in your car.

Speaking of not tip toeing things:

controversial 2015 death of Freddie Gray

The murder of Freddie Gray. The cops knew that what they did was dangerous because they have to clean up car accidents. Choosing to give someone a 'rough ride' is premeditated murder or attempted murder and anyone other than a cop would be charged.

It is also not in their job description to disperse "justice", or do anything but apprehend suspects and then allow the Justice System we have in place to deal with that. The second they step outside of that description they should be treated like any other citizen who took vigilante justice into their own hands, being charged and tried as such.
