Sounds about right. Cops have low iqs
more importantly cops don’t actually give a shit about solving crime.
In England the police primarily exist to keep noise down in middle class areas. I assume it’s even worse in America
Yeah, seriously. What is even the context of this? We have no idea. The cops might have been like “We need a warrant to look at that footage you idiot.”
Whoever owns the camera presumably has an interest in reducing/solving crime in the area (why else have cameras?), so they would likely be happy to make the footage available to police if asked nicely, with no warrant required.
