I like cops, but boy, I like the cell phone video cameras even more.
They need classes for the cops and deputies: “You have no expectation of privacy while you are performing your job. Don’t hassle the guys with the phone cams, except maybe to get their personal info if you need the video for evidence.”
Yep. It’s sad that this needs to be said, though.
Cell phone video cameras can be a good asset for cops as evidence that they did *not* engage in a given criminal behavior.
They should encourage the public to videotape them.
