Yes, I think it should be an investigatory agency with subpoena power. It could replace the IA department at offices.

We currently allow PDs to investigate themselves, which is a mockery of justice.

It ends at subpoena and arresting power. The courts would mediate disputes as they already do.

People confess in interview rooms because they are naive about the criminal justice system and thrown off balance by its sudden collision with their lives.

People testify because they feel greater loyalty to society as a whole than to the defendants.

Neither of those things are going to work against cops.
