I mean I've sadly witnessed the police attend a number of "assaults" that were more accurately mutual fights that escalated, and they definitely don't barge in pointing fingers until they've asked bystanders what actually happened.

That’s how it should be.

I think the ‘always believe the accuser’ thing is not from the police but more a current social media trend.People want to look like they’re on the ‘right’ side.
