Watch the rest of the video sometime.

The cop picks it back up and holsters it.

In the full video, the person with the camera is initially walking along the sidewalk and the camera is not pointed at the confrontation. During that period, you can hear a rapid clicking and pop sound - very much like a taser being fired.

The camera then points at the confrontation. It is not clear how or why the taser falls to the ground behind the cop.

Then the man runs, is shot, the cop does his "behind your back" thing and cuffs him, and then goes back to fetch the taser. When he comes back to the body, another cop has arrived and is standing there during the drop.

Don't stop watching there.

The other cop has gloves on and is looking over the body. THEN, the first cop picks up the taser and holsters it.

So, if you have in fact watched the whole video, can you explain exactly what it is you imagine the second cop to have done?

If he didn't report planted evidence he should be charged with being an accessory to murder. nt kelliekat44 Apr 2015 #14
