What Cameras Are Good For

Indicting cops who try to cover up murdering people by lying.
Authorities in Cincinnati have indicted a university police officer for murder in the shooting death of an unarmed black man earlier this month.
I have zero doubt that, without the video, the prosecutor and the grand jury would have accepted the lies of the police officers and this would have been ruled as a justifiable shooting.

But you can bet your last dollar that the Apologistas Pro Policia will be out there, proclaiming that this only happened because the dead guy wasn't subservient to the officer.* Because, as they see it, not being submissive to the cops is worthy of a summary execution.

We know what the truth is, and that's that probably 99.44% of such shootings in the past have been labelled as "good shoots".** Hell, even the Feebies are fond of saying all of their shootings are justified.

Cheap video cameras and cellphone video have changed that game, as other cops are finding out the hard way.
