All of you have spoken, to some degree, about officers arresting people and rearresting them days or sometimes hours later.
My understanding is that, when an officer makes an arrest, there is a legal risk, and there is a physical risk that it could go sideways. I have heard anecdotally, but I am hoping that one of you officers can shed some light on it, that there is a temptation not to expose yourself to that risk when you know that they are going to be out on bail and it will all be for nothing.
How does it affect the morale of officers when they're seeing these people they know on a first-name basis on the street, regardless of their having been arrested for a very serious offence?
