this is what subpoenas are for. Let the court force them to provide it.
and if the camera "turns out" to be on the fritz, they can provide the IT support ticket, complete with dates and times entries were made.
- bigiain 12y agoMy approach? If the cop's camera suspiciously turns out to be "on the fritz, your honor", all the cops evidence loses it's "magic cop assumption of reliability", and they fail to establish any "balance of probability" in a purely he-said/she-said situation. (even _with_ backdated IT support ticket claims - make it in the individual cop's interest to have working, reliable gear - penalise him personally/professionally if he "lets it slide", just like he and his colleagues penalise you if you let your licence or insurance renewal "slide".)
