Careful recording police

This is was an interesting Reason blog post.  A military vetran was recording police arrest a young woman for a DUI in a very aggressive and violent way when they saw him and approched him claiming that he was interfering with the arrest.  They then said that the man with the camera then spit on them and assaulted them (the police.)  Other cameras on the scene prove this was false but the man still faces charges that could land him ten years in jail.  From my interaction with police, this is pretty normal and very unsurprising (especially when they interact with military men).  It just makes me wonder how many others have been convicted by the lying testimony of police because they were not lucky enough to have someone on the scene recording the incident.

  1. Thanks for the ideas you have discussed here. Additionally, I believe there are some factors that really keep your auto insurance premium straight down. One is, to contemplate buying motors that are inside good listing of car insurance corporations. Cars that are expensive are usually more at risk of being lost. Aside from that insurance is also depending on the value of the car, so the higher priced it is, then higher the particular premium you have to pay.
