More details to this question:
The case I was a victim in was not investigated correctly, The detective did not interview me and turned in a statement to the DAs office that was very different from what happened. He refused to interview the perpetrator. He put in very little effort on the case, I really believe that he didnt care and did the least he could. Can I sue them for this?

No. As a general matter, police officers enjoy immunity from such claims and do not owe any duty to individual citizens.
