As a police officer, I completely agree with everything that was said here.
We don't even choose the times anymore, we just Add the charge and it sets the time, we can't reduce it or anything like that.
I believe the 4 hour prison time is a terrible addition to the server, at least in the state it is in. The prison is empty and there's no RP to be had there.
As for police convicting without evidence, I have seen it done and I have confronted a couple officers about it. I've also pointed out to a few officers during an on-going investigation that either we don't have any evidence or this is the evidence we would need, lets attempt to obtain it. If we don't have evidence, I'd rat on his ass if he places charges.
This server has taken a hit from the combination of the prison addition and the GTMP update. I try my best to keep as many people within the server as I can, and I try to get my colleagues to do the same.
I'm sorry if they have wrongfully convicted anyone without evidence, I hope you don't take to offensively, as sometimes it is hard to distinguish whether you have solid evidence or if you are just metagaming.
