Well I think cops, can at times get a big chip on their shoulders by their jobs and this is why when they do forget that they are not the gods of this earth that they are reminded and we need to at the very least report such behavior.

I understand about the crying and even without being overly compassionate they could have treated her with respect. Thing is you don't have to understand or be empathetic towards the person. That's not their job but to demean her for it is wrong. Either leave it be or err on the side of compassion, but this goes the entire opposite direction.

I'm sure crying isn't uncommon and I'm not being the devil's advocate here as much as stating a fact of reality. To their credit, I bet they see far more crying in their line of work than either you or I do. Unfortunately I'm sure this works to desensitize them to it. But that's why I emphasize that I wouldn't expect them to have empathy toward an arrested person but still need to work on being fair and just in their caring of them.
