Yep, it's them 90% 'good cops' with clean records. Unfortunately, the GEICO rep was on the phone which was dropped on the floor of the lady's SUV. The female LEO had a bad case of over-entitlement and potty mouth. I hope they hang them out to dry, and pull their badges. Lying under oath is a deal-breaker, or should be, imo.

LEOs everywhere need to know they're being recorded and should be acting lawfully even if they are felons in sheep's clothing in attitude. To do otherwise is just stupid for someone who values their job and the accompanying authority.

Yep...just the 95% of bad apples making the other 5% look bad. Nothing out of the ordinary here.

It really makes you wonder how often we would hear about these sorts of incidents if audio/visual recording was not an available technology. After all, I've yet to see a cop turn in a colleague for abusing his shiny piece of government-issued costume jewelry, and if a citizen complaint is not corroborated by audio/visual recording, the police union/media/sheeple universally agree that the citizen was uncooperative (as if there is a duty to cooperate) and combative.
