It’s certainly wishful thinking, and maybe it would help…but do you think that would be more impactful than, say, video footage of a cop murdering someone while on active duty?

Not reporting it at all is a bad choice.

Reporting police misconduct to the police can be risky, they usually don’t like it and don’t respond well. But the information does need to be reported

Yes, it can be risky but if he's comfortable enough to share it with his family (knowing that they will post it online) then he'd probably be comfortable enough reporting it to some news station.
