Assigned Cop At Birth. When the birth profession of the person does not match with their actual profession confusion might arise, hence this term designating people who were born as sworn-in police officers.
This term is useful for people who no longer wish to be police officers, despite it being their identity for their entire lives. ACABs may present differently from other police.

Person one: How do you identify?
Person two: Well I was ACAB, but now I identify as more of a real estate agent.
