No. But if a cop injures or kills someone innocent in the line of duty, they should be able to be sued just like anyone else.

It's not as easy as a blanket statement like that.  Consider this hypothetical situation.

A cop responds to a major traffic accident.  The driver is in the car and is injured.  The car catches fire.  The cop removes the driver and it turns out that person had say a neck or back injury.  The action of the cop removing the person made the injury worse and the person ends up paralyzed.  Should the person be able to sue the cop for making the injury worse and causing paralysis?


There are 10 kinds of people in this world.  Those who understand binary and those who don't.
