Hi!
Police officers would need to know about bill of rights so that they make sure that they are being fair during an arrest, or any other police duty. For example, the first amendment of the bill of rights states that everyone should have freedom of religion, speech and press. An officer can NOT arrest a person who is giving a speech to fellow people about how he/she feels about the nation/government, because of the first amendment.
Hope this helps! Have a wonderful day/night! :)
