20. Yeah they cannot just erase those taps, as much as I bet the SPD wants to.

And nothing is granny or out of focus (sorry haters) so it is REALLY hard to stretch the truth much in this case. IF there were no tapes of Invader Zimm getting 'held' at the PD, then I would expect there wouldn't even be a question on the issue if he was hurt or not. The cops would have said he was, then they would have moved on to the next case. This is uncharted waters now because you can believe your lying eyes or you can believe what a proven liar (Zimm) tells you.

I'm sure this guy will end up appealing whatever decision comes down as never being able to get a fair trial and blame it all on the SPD.
