“What would an appropriate punishment for government employees who violate the Constitutional rights of citizens?”

Good question. (And of course one definition of a “good question” is: A question for which one does not have a good answer.)

I think it would have to depend on the circumstances, not just of the crime but of the violation. It could range from monetary penalties to time off without pay to forced retirement to firing to jail time. But again: “Yeah, I know...like that’s going to happen.”
