Quoted: What would you suggest happens to them?
They are NOT military--the UCMJ doesn't apply.
They are [were] employees of a local government entity.
They are free to quit at any time.
They have no legal duty to any individual to do anything.

They swore an oath but no, they are not bound by UCMJ. They should be ashamed of themselves for abandoning the people they swore an oath to protect and serve. Simple as that. No respecting LEO department would ever hire them in the future so they kissed their LE careers goodbye.

Yeah, so?
Nothing will HAPPEN to them, as in discipline.
No doubt you can say they should have done their duty, but you know what? If I had to choose between protecting my family and getting them out of that shithole versus staying on the job, I would protect my family.
Family is family, being a cop is a job--no matter how noble, just a job.
There is NOTHING that is more important that a man's family and their protection.
If some of them left for any other reason, then they are cowards, selfish, or crooked.
