I always wondered how those (very entertaining) COPS type shows were able to arrest someone on camera, face showing and everything? Maybe some had given their consent, but all of them had the presence of mind to sign their privacy away?
I would never agree to something like that.
Maybe they were paid in some manner.
On COPS every single one you saw was offered and signed a release. They didn’t pay them or anything. They were all just so happy to get on TV that they would sign. Everyone you saw in those humiliating situations was HAPPY to get on TV. Guess that’s what keeps Jerry Springer going.
No joke. Don’t know about Live PD.
