These things are nothing new. They have happened for as long as society has delegated law-enforcement powers to a group of people.

You can prevent abuses through good screening and good training, but they'll still happen. Our system allows for oversight and for punishment when abuses take place. Is it 100%? No.

But what's the alternative?
