While I agree there are documented cases of Police breaking the law, and that is clearly wrong, it's not corruption, unless they are murdering and raping at the behest of someone else? Again, if there is any evidence of widespread corruption in the Police, you think it would surface more often?

The original cast and tv series is a frickin hard act to follow. I do remember watching it entranced with the wife, and the ending and the closing credits still sticks in the mind. Best of luck to them :-)
