I hope those who have/had pride in their respective department can empathize with the public and not take it personally - Hawaii is a small place and I'm sure there are more than a few CB readers who cringe every time a new story emerges about their own workplace.  

It must be hard for every new deputy prosecutor and fresh HPD academy graduate to know the public automatically distrusts/hates them.  Especially when it is the public they've sworn to serve and protect.  Thankless job is a nice way to put it - they knew what they signed up for though.
