I try to see things both ways, and am certainly aware that there are some bad cops out there (just like every other profession). You keep saying that they lied and filed false charges against him... what are you referring to? Just because the DA chose not to pursue the felony count does not mean he didn't spit on the nurse and should not have been charged with doing so.
The prosecutor, Deteres', account of the nurse spitting thing left it open to being dubious in nature.
Here is a video of the spitting incident and what I would imagine what they were calling the "headbut". Frankly, Jones spun around when the officer took his wallet and was clearly agitated. For doing this, they strapped him into a chair.
The spitting happens around 6:50 in. If you watch it, it looks EXACTLY how Deters described it, which was Jones spit out his chewing tobacco and some got on the nurses hand and the officers went ape shit. He didn't spit in her face or anything.
