[b]She Said a Police Officer Sexually Abused Her. His Body Camera Tells a Different Story [VIDEO][/b] Source: [url=http://controversialtimes.com/issues/constitutional-rights/she-said-a-police-officer-sexually-abused-her-his-body-camera-tells-a-different-story-video/#ixzz3aTQei555]Controlversial Times[/url] _______________ [quote][img]http://i.imgur.com/ErlHJaQ.jpg[/img] After being arrested for DWI, an Albuquerque, New Mexico woman accused an officer of sexually assaulting her. Luckily for the officer, the whole thing was captured right on camera and the suspect was shown to be a liar to the whole world. It all started when Deanna Griego was arrested for driving while intoxicated. After she had been taken to the police station, Griego asked if she could use the restroom. The arresting officer, Jared Frazier, heard the woman speaking on a cell phone and instructed her to come out. Griego had hidden the phone in her bra, and the phone was taken from her. That’s when Griego began making accusations that Frazier innappropriately touched her in the back of her squad car.[/quote] It's a good think he was wearing the camera, otherwise it would have been her word against his.
[QUOTE=Pretiacruento;47761800]It's a good think he was wearing the camera, otherwise it would have been her word against his.[/QUOTE] That would be something else, huh. In a your-word-against-his situation, typically the cop comes out on top over the common man, but she's claiming sexual assault, and the jury is quick to find in favor of that...
Give her a few years in prison, put that shit up all over the media to show people can't get away with shit like this.
Body cameras already paying for themselves in all directions.
If I were a cop I would get a bodycam privately even if my district wasn't issuing them as standard.
Unbelievable that some people are against body cameras when it reveals shit like this
[QUOTE=Araknid;47761938]Unbelievable that some people are against body cameras when it reveals shit like this[/QUOTE] "muh privacy", like you aren't already being recorded by a ton of cameras when you go out in public, and like anybody cares about what you're doing in public.
[QUOTE=Reds;47761979]"muh privacy", like you aren't already being recorded by a ton of cameras when you go out in public, and like anybody cares about what you're doing in public.[/QUOTE] Or better, complaining about privacy. On your facebook. With position tracking enabled, statuses set to public, and good dozen photos of whatever the fuck are you doing, every week.
It won't be long before bodycams are as prevailent as dashcams due to their ability to exonerate the wearer from any wrongdoing.
[QUOTE=WarRage333;47761876]Give her a few years in prison, put that shit up all over the media to show people can't get away with shit like this.[/QUOTE] Sadly there will always be people who will fight against that by saying "it will scare real victims from telling anyone".
This is pretty good evidence that body camera's can protect the cop just as much as the other way around. Why anyone would be against them completely is beyond me.
[QUOTE=Zet;47762049]Sadly there will always be people who will fight against that by saying "it will scare real victims from telling anyone".[/QUOTE] But this is proving the exact opposite? If they were real victims, the body cam would show that too.
[QUOTE=Awesomecaek;47761924]If I were a cop I would get a bodycam privately even if my district wasn't issuing them as standard.[/QUOTE] Yeah, but then someone would sue you for recording them without their allowance or something.
That's good that this was caught but it seems like this article is trying to promote the idea that cops don't regularly sexually assault people which they do
I'm glad that body cameras can be used to work both ways.
[QUOTE=Dr. Punchgroin;47762418]That's good that this was caught but it seems like this article is trying to promote the idea that cops don't regularly sexually assault people which they do[/QUOTE] Yeah media should put even more focus on making the cops look bad...
Throw the book at her for wasting police resource.
[QUOTE=Reds;47761881]Body cameras already paying for themselves in all directions.[/QUOTE] And now that the cops are going to use one as evidence to prove she made false allegations the ACLU is going to demand they be banned as excessive surveillance.
This is what detractors of body cameras ignore-- they work both ways! They are every bit as much for the officer's protection as the civilians he might be crossing paths with. They ought to be mandatory in every precinct.
If she actually filled out a complaint against the officer then she would have committed perjury and filing a false police report. Its just that most of the time the police department doesn't press those charges.
[QUOTE=Bradyns;47762028]It won't be long before bodycams are as prevailent as dashcams due to their ability to exonerate the wearer from any wrongdoing.[/QUOTE] and then we catch the corrupt pigs that give the good cops a bad name. IDK about other people's, but the police force here is seriously fucked in the head. You can call me a cop hater all you want, but it's the truth.
youtube link: [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vCidpHYLmtE[/media] incident is from last october
[QUOTE=Boss;47762563]Throw the book at her for wasting police resource.[/QUOTE] As if they aren't wasted enough already.
And yet we struggle to even put temporary identification numbers on riot police here in Germany
[QUOTE=AntonioR;47762288]Yeah, but then someone would sue you for recording them without their allowance or something.[/QUOTE] this isn't a thing you can do in most places
[QUOTE=AntonioR;47762288]Yeah, but then someone would sue you for recording them without their allowance or something.[/QUOTE] Video recording is totally valid without permission, and I'm pretty sure police officers are allowed to record audio too, for the sake of archiving incidents.
[QUOTE=Killuah;47762855]And yet we struggle to even put temporary identification numbers on riot police here in Germany[/QUOTE] What do you expect, it's Germany. You can't change shit here without 3 years of debate and bureaucracy. Even video material as evidence is problematic since you violate the personality rights of the ones on the video. It's the reason why dashcams are illegal. v:v:v
[QUOTE=Araknid;47761938]Unbelievable that some people are against body cameras when it reveals shit like this[/QUOTE] My main problem with body cameras is storage costs of the data if it police force wide. But generally that can be dealt with by setting up or paying for long term storage archiving at a datacenter via tape storage and a buffer of normal hdd storage for the a few months of data.
This is an older video, but it still shows how useful these things are. People pull this shit all the time.
[QUOTE=Dr. Punchgroin;47762418]That's good that this was caught but it seems like this article is trying to promote the idea that cops don't regularly sexually assault people [u]which they do[/u][/QUOTE] How often is regular? No source cited with your claim?
