As soon as it turns off alert the officer or something? They make it sound like they’re using primitive technology from the fucking 1950s.
this is the correct answer.
...and circle gets the square! Wait, what are we doing?
Cops = “perps” in this scenario. 126 videos, but the only one anyone wants to see wasn’t turned on.
There were no shots fired, what description is he supposed to fit? Is it really too much to think before you post?
Yeah. Presumption of guilt actually works for me here.
Even worse, he is big and black. Also, an officer has to assume he is on PCP (aren’t they all).
It’s just so convenient that the camera was “off” and no one knows why. Such BS. They know why the damn thing was off and that’s so they are not held accountable. Hold that officer guilty until proven innocent just like they assumed Bennett was
I’m cool with any cop with their body camera turned off for no reason being guilty until proven innocent. If they can turn them off and have zero repercussions when doing so then what’s the point of them?
Yes, it’s starting to seem unlikely that all these body cams just happen to be off when terrible things happen.
“When did you stop acting like an active shooter?”
How dare he, being black in America at a time like this! The NERVE!
My damn fitness tracker turns on with activity. Just set the body cams up like that.
The err suspect grabbed my handcuffs and actually put them on himself and then repeatedly threw his head at my fist before deciding to have a lie down on the ground to relax.
To be honest, the cops probably can explain why they handcuffed/detained Bennett.
He’d like him to answer for being black, obviously.
What is McMahill saying in that last quote? He wants Michael Bennett to tell the police why they detained him?
I’m going to go with “He’s black and we didn’t know he had the money to hire a bunch of lawyers” for 200.
