http://photographyisnotacrime.com/2015/04/oklahoma-police-unable-to-explain-why-body-cam-on-cop-who-killed-man-malfunctioned/Oklahoma police shot and killed a man over the weekend, then called a press conference to release body cam footage to ensure complete transparency.
However, they released all the footage surrounding the shooting except for footage of the actual shooting.
That footage was never captured due to the officers body camera inexplicably malfunctioning.
But Sand Springs Deputy Police Chief Mike Carter insisted his officers are not as trigger happy as cops are proving to be across the nation.

The body cam thing is a good idea, except for all those times when they might "inexplicably" malfunction.

Shitweasel kkkops will always find a way to short-circuit any potential for accountability.

they spend enough time oiling their guns and such. Maybe the day will come where more take the other aspects of their responsibilities just as seriously.
At a minimum, a supposedly malfunctioning camera, should be evidence to look at lot closer at what actually happened.
