And thats exactly it.

Within the confines of the system within which they operate they are effectively 'above the law' to the point where they're even 'above suspicion' at times based on nothing more than the fact that 'they're Police Officers.'

It becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy because it's self-appointed and self-authorized.
