      Yes when they turned off their body cameras it was interfering which is an additional crime to planting the evidence and the cops should be charged every time unless a third party unaffiliated with the police or courts can verify there was a valid reason to stop documenting the arrest.

      Btw the sealed bottle is heard breaking when the police open it in the linked video in the article at 1:05 you silly billy.

          What does the contents of the cup have to do with the cops breaking the seal and reporting it as open. That’s not a typo that’s misrepresenting the facts aka lying, an example of a typo is writing contets instead of contents not reporting the sealed bottle was open. From that point the report is suspect because we already know they were lying based on the video evidence.

          And then on top of that turning off their bodycams to prevent saving further evidence of their crimes? It could be a cup full of lighter fluid and the cops still broke the law and tried to cover it up.

          You sure are bending over backward trying to defend cops caught falsifying evidence and to paint the suspect in a bad light.
