True. Without knowing how many of the officers have degrees Vs. don't have degrees it is hard to say for sure if this is proof or not. That same study did say the findings found that those with degrees, "performed on par with officers who had 10 years? additional experience." To me that is a good thing. Typically the more experience you get the better you do your job. That doesn't mean they still can't be bad cops, but it could mean they are more suited for the job.
