The correct answer is D) hiding exculpatory evidence.

An abuse of authority that is not part of the typologies elucidated by Baker and Carter is hiding exculpatory evidence.

In 1985, David Carter came up with what is considered the best definition of police abuse of authority. And is “any action by a police officer without regard to motive, intent, or malice that tends to injure, insult or trade on human dignity…” Carter and Baker believe that the abuse of authority by the police abuse can be broken into three areas. Physical abuse, psychological abuse, and legal abuse. But the abuse of authority that is not part of the typologies elucidated by Baker and Carter is hiding exculpatory evidence.

The other options of the question were, a) professional courtesy, b) retaliatory brutality, and c) perjury.
