There was a case in Massachusetts a few years ago concerning a guy who recorded the cops during a traffic stop. The cops accused him of using\selling drugs etc. The courts defended the cops in this case and wouldn’t allow the tape to be used in his defense. Maybe someone else remembers this.
I’m as much a Law-and-Order guy as the next Conservative but cops outta control make my blood boil

Police that are out of control hurt all of us. This case is a great example of the “do as I say” attitude on behalf of a lot of our gubmint agencies at the local, state and federal levels.The only way to stop it is to raise holy hell and keep raising it at every opportunity you get.

I do. The civilian was found guilty of Illegal Wiretapping and was sent to prison. This was in 1999.
