I don't know. But the fact that this cop was actually sentenced to four years in prison for this will help to move things in the right direction.

The next thing that has to stop is right wing politicians trying to pass laws that prevent citizens from videoing police while they're doing their jobs. And after that, the next thing that has to stop is police NOT doing their jobs because they're afraid of being caught on video doing something illegal, like abusing suspects.

If you can't do your job without breaking the law, then QUIT, and find something else to do for a living.
