Cop accidentally frames himself planting drugs on body camera footage​

Baltimore news outlets have published body cam video from a supposed drug bust back in January. The video appears to show a cop planting drugs in a trash pile, before going back to the road, activating his body camera, and “finding” the drugs that supposedly belonged to a suspect.

The cop was using a model of body cam that constantly captures and buffers footage, so that when you press the record button, it saves the previous 30 seconds of footage.

Presumably unaware of this feature, the cop accidentally films himself placing a baggie of pills in an empty can in a yard filled with trash. The officer then goes back out to the sidewalk with two other cops, presses record on the body cam, and is then heard saying “Hey, let’s check over here.”

The officer is seen “discovering” the bag of pills in record time, before coming back out to the road and turning the camera off. The drugs — and the officer’s testimony of finding them — were to be used in a case against a suspect. After reviewing the video, a public defender brought up the apparent planting of evidence to the prosecutor in the case. Charges were subsequently dropped, and some kind of investigation is ongoing, although the Baltimore Police Department has refused further comment.

Body cams have become more and more prevalent among cops in recent years, although policies around when they should be recorded and how evidence should be disclosed are still working out. Cases like this show how some police officers appear to be manipulating the cameras (however badly!) to try and manipulate evidence, showing that they’re far from the perfect solution that some have hoped for.

Unfortunately having a badge does not make you an honest person or anything more than what you are...

Sadly this isn't likely the first time this fool pulled this, I'm pleased his crime spree has come to an end..

he will resign so that the union can force the IA to drop the investigation. the DA is going to find that there's not enough evidence to pursue criminal charges. he will resurface in another agency in 6 months.

This is not a passing issue for Desh.

It's called a sense of consciousness and humanity .. and Desh has lots of it.

YEAH; ban the PIGS!! I think they should just disband the police force in this leftist urban sewer until the moron citizens realize how important it is to support the local police.

Yes BillTard, there are some bad cops. But there are many more bad actors making this urban sewer one of the most dangerous cities in the USA next to other leftist controlled urban sewers like Detroit and Chicago.
