They sound like the same men who wanted to make a nice movie at the Waco Siege/Standoff.
There is footage in the second "waco seige" movie (by some of the people that made the Oscar nominated one) of the lawmen kicking the crap out of the news crew that had filmed it (they were invited to be there in the first place). I don't know if the assault was over refusal to surrender the tape or some other compliance.
The news crew that videoed the officers' assault gave clear release to the filmmakers but had forgotten that was among the footage.
