From the article:

Which brings us to the possibility of a “Devil’s Deal.” Suppose Costco’s attorney had a “non-conversation” with Sheriff Gillespie and his METRO legal team. Maybe they agreed to a simple pact: “You don’t reveal the video surveillance data and we won’t release the 911 tape.” Nice. No video data. No audio tape. Everybody skates. Or so they’d like to believe.

Seems plausible...

METRO’s Sheriff, Douglas Gillespie, and his spokesmen have stated, from the first day of this nightmare, that video surveillance data the police department immediately seized has a “glitch,” and might be “unusable.” Those Costco video data (stored on computer hard drives) were shipped to a forensics lab in Los Angeles. That decision, in itself, is surprising.

Yeah. Surprise, surprise, surprise.

Can you say "cover up"? Good, I knew you could!

Thank you for posting this letter. Please keep us informed of this case.

I hope this family can get justice. It would be nice if this case would get the exposure it deserves.

This man should not die in vain.

Sounds like what they are covering up is nothing less than murder.

"We know another copy exists, archived offsite, per Costco’s insurance requirements."

Tort case history revealed the off-site requirement?

On TV the other day a show had the 5 year Katrina look back. They focused on a police officer beating a couple of dudes who brought a shooting victim to the station. Turn out the shooting victim was shot by police earlier. An officer jumped in the car of the wounded victim and drove off. Later the car was found burned out with the victim inside.

“Law enforcers” have a long history of burying their mistakes.

Justice would be well served if some “right minded” person were to obtain a copy of the backup and do a widespread release to the public. Releasing it to one agency/organization alone would do no good and just might result in the truth being denied for all time.

And both Mr. Sinegal and Sheriff Gillespie should be asking themselves: Who will go to jail for suppressing and/or altering evidence that is absolutely critical to exposing the truth about Erik Scott’s brutal slaying?

How can they be illegally suppressing evidence when no trial or inquest has begun?

When I was a kid I was taught that cops were trust worthy. That I was to go to one if ever I needed help.

In the late 1970’s while living in Cincinnati I had a cop point a pistol at me for having a headlight out on my car. I stopped trusting cops then and my distrust of them has only grown over the years.

why is this outrage allowed to continue? Where are the people of LV? The Governor? The feds? Anybody? The people in LV should mob the police station and demand answers.

After being stopped and blowing a zero, then being arrested for DUI, it is all over for me.

Found out that the $600 towing charge, to get my car back, was being paid to an impound lot owned by the cops brother in-law.

I am afraid to drive anymore.

All cops scare the hell out of me.

If true that the off-site copy exists due to previous suites (court of record), then should remain as is until ordered released to the Scott lawyer by authority of a court.

I think the question is rhetorical.

And someone presumably could be found guilty of tampering with or suppressing evidence for actions that occurred before an inquest or trial.

This whole situtation is outrageous. Isn’t there one honest person between the two institutions?

I think this is what rellimpank was referring to. Cut-and-paste:
