Do you know where those reports went? Straight to the trash because the “bad cop” knew more of the higher ups than the good cop that reported them. So what is the good cop supposed to do then? It takes way more than just one or two good cops reporting the bad ones. The people above them have to take the reports seriously. And I think that’s where the good cop credibility gets tossed out the window.
It seems like you understand that your argument does more to hurt your point than help it. That story is exactly why people say ACAB because even the “good ones” eventually get broken down by the system (assuming they don’t get terminated or end up getting shot somehow during duty) and end up going along with it.
