I do care about the abuse of power and religious oppression

I'm getting the impression that you don't. As long as it's a Christian. Please correct me if I'm wrong. You have repeatedly knocked the cop using only the words of people whose honesty I question. If they can convince enough people they're telling the truth, the charges magically disappear and they could be rich.

which this incident clearly is.

According to the accused people.

Suppose you were stopped by a cop, and he put in a good word for his religion. Then you receive a letter a few days later that reads, in part:

"One visit, a few prayers and an occasional opening of his Koran will not be enough. You must be prepared to make some serious changes and do so now! You may not get another intercession."

"Who knows? But you must admit that you've been contacted by Allah! And you must respond."

What would be your reaction?

I don't consider myself a Christian, but I am not at all anti-Christian; and agree with David Limbaugh for instance, that Christians in America are being oppressed by secular leftists. Christians such as Officer Hellfire and those that defend him here are only playing into the hands of the ACLU.

You have given no cogent reasons for questioning the honesty of the couple, only a personal antipathy for their religion. The cop has given us reasons to question his integrity in his job. And from Fox21.com:

But Greer Police say they are investigating why the tag was run in the first place.

If Officer Hellfire had a clear cut legitimate reason for the stop, the Greer Police wouldn't have to be "investigating," at this point they are "investigating" so as to find some reason that they can use to defend themselves in the lawsuit.
