Can't Always Trust Cops

Judges will usually take a cop’s word over the word of a citizen, and many of them use that to their advantage, thinking that, since they “know” the subject is guilty, it’s okay to “falsify evidence” to get ”one more bad guy off the street.” One problem is, sometimes their “bad guy” isn’t a “bad guy,” THEY are. In this case, the cops are heard on their own dash camera feed admitting they had no search warrant, and talking about “planting” drugs they had in their car to make it look like a “righteous search,” which is wasn’t. They did this in such a routine fashion, it makes you wonder how often this has been done. But they forgot their own dash cam and got caught. They even phonied-up blood tests, according to the victim. This case points up the fact that such raids must be looked at a lot closer than they are, to uncover the illegal acts of overzealous, if not criminal acts of the cops, themselves. In any case, it shows that their unsupported word should not be accepted, unquestioned, by ANY court. (Last Resistance)
