What makes it look worse is the officer is a sergeant that you would expect to know and understand the law better since they usually are involved in training. What do you usually do when you dont like the response from the officer, ask for a supervisor who is supposed to be more knowledgeable and professional. so this supervisor doesnt know the law about providing secure storage in a courthouse or about recording public officials (no he didnt need permission, even if he was a "d-bag" attorney). Then it gets worse, the sergeant gets visibly flustered and starts name calling and degrading the guy, in front of subordinates. The same as saying it's ok to treat the public like "d-bag" because the supervisor does it and if there is a complaint, the supervisor gets to look into it. If that's how their sergeants act, makes you wonder how the rest of the leadership will act if they look into this.
