California cops say video of them insulting disabled woman during raid violated their privacy
Three police officers in Santa Ana, California, have taken legal action in an attempt to block the use of surveillance video reportedly showing them snacking on marijuana-laced edibles and making derogatory comments about a disabled woman during a raid on a marijuana dispensary, the Orange County Register reported.
The unidentified officers, along with their union, the Santa Ana Police Officers Association, filed a lawsuit last week to prevent the department's internal affairs investigators from using the video in their investigation of the May 26 raid of the Sky High Collective dispensary.
The footage reportedly shows the officers trying to disable all of the cameras in the Sky High Collective facility, after which some played darts and ate what was believed to be edible products containing marijuana. Another officer was captured in the video insulting a customer. "I was going to punch her in the f---ing nub," she said, the Huffington Post reported.
You cannot make this shit up.
Cops HATE cameras and that is LARGELY because they KNOW they intend to do bad, unacceptable, and illegal things BEFORE they do them.
here we have them on one video trying to disable other cameras.
So they can do bad shit.
Like bully the disabled and consume products from the marijuana dispensary, when they'd be arresting people for the same thing if they could.
So, yeah: they have actually filed some appeal to suggest their video recording violates their privacy (!!) and they have accused the dispensary owner of 'altering the video":
“The attorney representing the drug dispensary intentionally has misrepresented what happened,” said Corey W. Glave, a Hermosa Beach, California, attorney representing the Santa Ana Police Officers Association and the officers.
Pappas said he has released two versions of the video to Santa Ana police -- a "highlight reel" and a version that he said is the full, unedited footage.
Cops lie constantly.
CONSTANTLY.
They have no credibility and they have pissed all over what "honor" they may have once had.
Cops are pretty much scumbags who feel entitled to do as they wish, bully people, intimidate people, lie, cheat and steal.
Where are the good cops? Hmmm?not all cops are dirt bags but in answer to the question where are they shamefully in the background observing some antiquated members only "blue wall of silence". we now much approach police with extreme caution we just don't know who's the one that will end us.
