No. The police officer is acting as an agent to enforce the laws of the State. The next officer or detective will handle it.

No, if a police officer is killed, his cases are not automatically dropped in court. The court procedures would continue as normal, with replacement officers or other personnel taking over the cases. The prosecution would make necessary arrangements to ensure the cases are pursued and justice is sought.
