In america at least cops can’t have an IQ that’s too high or they won’t get the job. They want people smart enough to do the capitalist class’s bidding but dumb enough not to question anything.

This is a fun fact considering you need to be a cop before you can be a detective.

The official reason is that if you're too smart, the menial repetitive nature of most police work will get boring and you'll quit. The rationale being they didn't want to invest in training if you aren't going to stick around.
