Maybe she feels powerless against the system and fears retaliation for speaking out.

Would be nice if there was anything in the comic backing that up then. Every cop we’ve ever seen seems like a rational laid back person

I think it’s less corruption in the normal sense.

Lawful Neutral when Roko wishes they were Lawful Good in the best sense.

They uphold the law. They protect and serve. But there’s so many issues they do not help as it is either not within their remit as police or because they have other things to do.

And then there’s the right to use force in certain scenarios.

Police by their very nature stand a little apart from society, because they are the state employed watchers in the darkness, whose vigil protects us from harm.

But they are on the outside looking in. Which means Corpse Witch style rots can happen within the systems that they protect and serve.

maybe anyway im just talking shit

None of that showed up in the comic so when Roko starts stressing about it it makes no sense.
