Yeah, there are good parts to this and bad -- I think in a "normal" indictment situation (no cops involved) the extended testimony, longer wait, leaving the charges up to the jury ... all very good things. In a situation like this one where a prosecutor has any number of reasons to protect the cop, all bets are unfortunately off.

I'm waiting for someone to do a comprehensive summary of the released evidence. Want to look at it but don't have time to draw the conclusions myself.
