Agreed, we hold police to a higher standard, because we entrust them, and they ask us to entrust them.

That's where you crazily descend into liberalism. By what logic is one unable to trust the police? The instances of unjustified police violence is extremely rare. There is no reason for one, in general, to not trust the police. But that makes great headlines, and bring in donations to the pig Al Sharpton, so the race hucksters play that card CONTINUOUSLY (in this case, that word applies). When the hucksters with megaphones can convince the dummies that they genuinely cannot trust the police, horrible things happen.
The police are unbelievably trustworthy. The facts make that abundantly clear. But it's a whole lot easier to tell people in Chicago that white cops are the enemy, than it is to tell them that their choices are the problem. That's one of the pillars of liberalism - blame someone else, preferably the closest honkey.
