I'm with you. I don't want perps to walk but folks, I'm from Louisiana. Our public officials including law enforcement often have earned a less than sterling reputations. Give me proof. BTW, I expect to be called for jury duty any day. I'll report back if I am selected.

In 1986 I got popped for DUI to which I plead guilty to. One thing I did learn in this is LEO's are trained to "make their case" even if that requires fudging the facts a little. Before this had I been on a jury and it was your word against a cops I would have believed the cop. No longer. Now I will try to determine who's telling the truth and that extra evidence would help in that.
juries are too insulated from what goes on in the court room. I think they should be allowed to hear what the def/pros argue about being put into evidence, and why it was not allowed/was allowed
