A man impersonating a pig, at least.

A security company, run by evangelicals. Not sure where the line is between security guard and privatized police acting in a zone they were not authorized in.
Off duty security guard may be the best term. The security group likely makes their vehicles and gear look similar to police intentionally so people react to them like police.
Laws against such would be good.
No problem since the police makes themselves look like military, so if it looks like a tank, it’s probs police, if it looks like a police car, it’s most likely security. If it looks like security, then I guess it’s going to be Jimbo with the lifted truck bought on credit. /s
If we just add more laws, they’ll stop doing illegal things!
What’s the functional difference?
A rent-a-cop likely has an even bigger inferiority complex, and is potentially more dangerous, for one. Being unable to become a real cop is like being unable to win a staring contest against yourself in a mirror.
To be fair to them; the symbolic mirror fight is usually not something that happens early in a story.
