What if you were on a bus, sitting across from a cop bashing somebody's face in? Ok, back up two rows to be able to video. Check!
What if you have to get out of your car, but leave your camera running and the cop decides to drag you down and put a knee on your neck within 8 feet?
- nvrspyx 4y agoFor the second example, you wouldn't be a bystander, so I don't think it would apply. If you were the passenger though, I guess it would.
- jksmith 4y agoSo the law reads that this only applies to bystanders? Including spouses/family?
- rndgermandude 4y agoIt does not apply to the person who is subject to police action. It does furthermore not apply to other occupants of a vehicle (as long as they do not interfere otherwise). And it allows to make videos in a "closed structure" on private property from closer than 8ft unless the person is interfering otherwise or the entire area is deemed unsafe. And it's only a misdemeanor after the police already warned you and you continue to take video from closer than 8ft. https://www.azleg.gov/legtext/55leg/2R/bills/HB2319S.pdf https://www.azleg.gov/legtext/55leg/2R/bills/HB2319S.pdf
