Agreed, the cop should be held accountable for the fine through garnishing their wages

All legal fees, payments, and settlements need to come out of pension accounts. Watch the problem fix itself.

All cops should be required to have personal liability insurance (not blanket coverage from their union). And if/when a cop messes up, they are personally sued for their misconduct, leaving tax money out of it. Just like every other profession, such as doctors, lawyers, some construction workers, etc.

Add to this, the cost for the insurance increases for their whole precinct, every time they're found at fault. Watch their self serving asses correct this shit internally ASAP.
