What needs to happen is that every interaction with officials needs to be filmed and the victim needs to determine what federal district they are in as well as the name, phone number, and email of the US Attorney over that jurisdiction. Then they need to encourage viewers to flood that office with demands that officials who break 18 USC 242 be prosecuted. Lawsuits aren't doing it.
I hear cops do especially well in federal prisons so maybe setting some examples will.
• 18 U.S.C. § 242 makes it a federal crime for any official acting under color of law to willfully deprive a person of rights secured by the Constitution or federal law. The offense is punishable by up to 1 year in prison, up to 10 years if bodily injury results or a weapon is used, and up to life imprisonment or the death penalty if death results.
• 18 U.S.C. § 241 makes it a federal crime for two or more persons to conspire to injure, oppress, threaten, or intimidate someone in the exercise of those rights.
A conspiracy under § 241 is established by proof of agreement and intent to deprive a federally protected right, not by outcomes, and carries penalties of up to 10 years in prison, or up to life imprisonment or the death penalty if death results. As affirmed in United States v. Price (1966), those acting under color of law are fully subject to criminal liability when they participate in such agreements. In toto, if we could ever compel federal prosecutors to fucking enforce the law, most cops and every backup cop who participates, should be facing a minimum of 1 year in a federal pen, plus fines.
