There are updates, a picture and links to video at the Blaze.
It sounds like pretty clear violation of rights, including the first amendment. The Seventh Circuit has ruled that you have a constitutional first amendment right to record police in the performance of their public duties.
The Sheriff's story does not seem to hold together.

Police should stick to their assigned duties: Raising revenue for the welfare state from innocent civilians attempting to legally go about their day.

Hope the cop's got a good lawyer.
He may not be able to hide behind his badge on this one.

Shouldn’t deleting a video of the arrest be considered destruction of evidence?

I don’t believe the guy pointed the weapon at anyone, much less in the direction of the officers.
It was dumb to hold it up and broken but, it’s even number that a cop can’t tell the gun is in safe.

You can see by the photos that the peasant Donald has been forced to assume the proper position when addressing his Donut Blimp Magic Costumed Betters - on his belly, eating grass.

What is the name of the service that lets you automatically upload to a cloud server when you film police, so that you have the video even if they confiscate your phone?

scroll down for photos - this should be "carried" whenever carrying - records several GB’s at HD. ou coulld start video taping at minute one.
they wouldn't even know they're being video taped - maybe tape with phone and then when the say turn it off - ‘comply’ - they would think they had neutralized you
