“Awww, I forgot to turn on my camera. “
“Not a problem. There were cameras outside the building. “
Was the suspect less than 21 feet away from the officer? /s
“Fridoon Zalbeg Rawshannehad”
Nice try, but you missed a couple consonants.
....$2.1 million for 400 more body cameras...
Over $5000 for one body camera. What a fraud. Which of Holder’s freinds is selling these cameras at such a high markup?
Can't wait to hear the reason why the SDPD will lose the video.
There is only 1 question needing to be asked and answered:
If a person that was not wearing a magic blue costume did this, would he be under arrest already and charged??
Any cop “forgetting” to turn on his or her camera should be fired instantly with total loss of all benefits including pension. Failure to immediately report a malfunction should carry a 6 month suspension without pay for the first instance.
A second instance should be immediate termination with forfeiture of all benefits.
Period.
The man had threatened multiple people and the store owner called 911 for help after he came in and threatened an employee....
