I always thought of Nick as one of the good guys and the way he handles things does not translate to a good guy. I'll just have to start viewing him as another dark character like the rest. As a dark character, his only way of handling the criminal element Wesen would be to do it himself.
I view Nick as a good guy still, my guess is this is another thing that makes nick different, by wesen law they cant show themselves, so in some cases if it were to go to court the only way would be to make the reveal themselves, this would assist nick and cause the cases to be truly legal but at the same time the said wesen would be breaking council law and then would have a mark for death by the council
in these rarer cases Nick does have to kinda go around the law but even when he does he tries to stay somewhat within it, and you sometimes see he's unable to make a choice
in the frog girl episode nick actually wants to arrest the girl and put her in jail, it Rosalee that tells him she literally has no control over it and even when she tells the men to back off they wont, they technically kill themselves and that nick cant honestly arrest someone who is actively trying to not hurt people, especially if rosalee can help her
they do a poor job of showing it but i believe this episode was supposed to show Nick's turmoil and how his life has become split since becoming a Grimm, cause up until that girl the other things were able to be explained atleast part of the way
the "Demon" boy had a rare infection from a water parasite
and Krampus thought he was human and had literally no idea he changed for 12 days and ate children (this one is kinda like the frog girl since nick himself decided to let him go)
but again its only cause you cant bring that case to a legal court, the guy only changes for 12 days at christmas so unless they wait a year they cant prove anything, and then if they did wait a year to prove it like the above the guy who has no idea whats happening would be marked for death by the council cause Krampus is visable by all, and that dont seem fair either
atleast nick is better then the council, the council most likely would have killed every single wesen nick has encountered, if they knew of them that is, if they didnt all those dangerous wesen would still be running around
