These guys are like shoe salesman now. They need to sell as many shoes to customers regardless of size or colour, in this case, apprehend as many people- their status be damned - to make their numbers. Add to that that authorities have a perception of being above the law morally, which legally they are because of qualified immunity, as well as, many are inherently racist. With a president who rewards misbehavior and hatred towards others there is a big incentive to be the worse you can be, as it seems that is the way to move up the ladder now.
