To paraphrase Homer: the cause of, and solution to, a problem! In this case police misconduct.

It does make me wonder whether electronic evidence of police behavior will materially impact actual behavior over time. But given that the normal reaction is to deny access to evidence, I doubt it.

The people who want to be police officers tend not to be the people everyone else would want to be police officers.

In modern American penal code you are ALL felons. EVERYONE. Ok, maybe the guy in a coma. Wait, there is probably some medical fraud statute that makes him a felon if he twitches a thumb.
