A police officer has been jailed for 26 years for 20 offences including multiple counts of rape and sexual assault on a child.

Stephen Hardy, 46, a detective constable with Greater Manchester Police (GMP), used his teenage victim as a “puppet or sex object”, Judge Robert Trevor-Jones said during his sentencing on Wednesday.

All 'good' cops are fired, resign, or are corrupted into bad cops, so no currently existant cops are good.

A cop who hypothetically joined the police force purely to do good and protect people is either supporting cops like this by inaction, corrupted by other cops to accepting this kind of thing as normal, or shoved into a closet desk job until they give up and go away. No matter how much copaganda police procedurals try to make you believe otherwise.

If someone is doing their job correctly and not speaking out/doing something against shit like this, they are still a bad cop.
