Surely you could be an infiltrator cop, compiling internal evidence of heinous shit? You would feel like shit playing the part, and you'd do terrible things, but a 9 minute video of a cop choking a guy caused nation-wide riots. If you could get access to old unreleased bodycams, you might be able to do more good than one cop does evil
edit: this was the best case scenario I could think of, but like... The kind of person that could go through with it? It's not something anyone could do just because they needed a job. You'd certainly want a local support network outside who you knew could keep secrets
The Floyd murder video reaction was an anomaly caused in part by quarantine meaning people were home and had the time and energy to take to the streets
There are plenty of videos of cops murking black people that don't cause nationwide protests because US workers are so drained that they simply can't do it between their 3 jobs

Adrian Schoolcraft is a case study of what happens to people like that. tl;dr they put you in a psych ward
That's what your little outside team is supposed to prepare for, real life communist spy breakout missions go!
