I would take these figures with a grain of salt because I doubt any accurate statistics of police misconduct are kept.

Certainly not, but it's not even close. There were ~5,000 reports of police misconduct and ~12,000 homicides in 2010.

This may be true, but police misconduct is everywhere and most of those homicides are localized to places I don't live.

This is exactly what I was trying to say.
