If and when due process and rule of law, which are supposedly critical institutional tools of justice in a democracy, are being systematically trampled by government leaders and by law enforcers themselves, and such wrongdoing is left tolerated by the public or even by people of moral authority because of their blind loyalty, then it affords wrongdoers a deadly incentive to a class of impunity which is at a certain level government-sanctioned -- a far worse class of impunity.
Where have the rest of the moral leaders of our country gone? Where are those other Brother Eddies of the land? Until when will you keep silent? When you see wickedness, don't just turn a blind eye and allow it to continue. Have the strength to plead for righteousness.

[Ezekiel 3:20] "when a righteous man does turn from his righteousness, and commit iniquity, and I lay a stumbling block before him, he shall die: because you have not given him warning, he shall die in his sin, and his righteous deeds which he has done shall not be remembered; but his blood will I require at your hand."
