the cop who does career suicide is a trope I vibe with.
there’s a TV series that is like 15 years old now which introduced the character /popped off with an Irish gardai pulling over a conservative/austerity minister’s car for speeding. the minister is like, “don’t you know who I am?” and the gardai is like, “yeah you’re the prick that sacked all those nurses.” and the minister is like, "I will have you fired for this " and the gardai just shrugs like, “you’re right, might as well make the most of it” and then busts the guy in the mouth.
it was so satisfying. it flashes forward like a year or so after that event and now he’s an ex-cop who does like private detective shit for the downtrodden. it’s called Jack Taylor and it’s OK, but sorta falls off from that starting high point.
