The world isn’t so black and white. There are good cops and bad cops and everything in between. Good cops join because they want to make the world a better place, and bad cops join because they’re attracted to the power and authority of the badge.
A good cop will arrest a bad cop given sufficient evidence, and I’ve seen several documented cases of that happening. Some districts are really good about that and are led by a great chief, others are rotten throughout.
The police system certainly needs reform and better checks, but that doesn’t mean all cops are bad.
