Not a cop, but as a prosecutor, I agree. A cop who has lied in the past is worse than useless to me as a witness.

As a prosecutor do you think it's appropriate to charge those officers with crimes?

(NOTE DnD posters looking for ammo...I am not defending lying cops. I am just acknowledging that there are varying degrees of misconduct and some levels are better addressed by loss of job than criminal convictions) EDIT: If we are talking specifically about this case? Not turning over the footage leaves me open to a Brady allegation. So gently caress those guys. ActusRhesus fucked around with this message at 01:52 on Aug 16, 2015 |

Cole posted:Is your case pretty much hosed at that point? What are the odds of salvaging it? I know this is dependent on the situation but ballpark it for me. honestly it would depend on the independent evidence. I can't really answer that. Plus there's the wild card of jury nullification if the jury is pissed enough. Fun side note, as a prosecutor, I am responsible for the entire police file, whether I know it exists or not, so if someone fails to turn something over to me, it's still a Brady violation....cue SJWs railing about PROSECUTOR MISCONDUCT!!!!! No, I don't think a prosecutor should be disbarred because they didn't turn over a document they didn't know existed. And sometimes it's not even shadiness on the cop's end. Example: Recent appeal I did, cop responds to a sexual abuse of a minor case. Calls the Child abuse hotline and hands it over to them, as is protocol. Writes his own brief report which is redundant with the child case worker report, but since it's no longer his case doesn't file it. Defense calls him as a witness. While prepping him before his testimony, Cop says to defense counsel "I don't remember, can I check my report?" This is the first anyone knew he had written one. Report is produced and contains the same info as the main case file. Misconduct? Should the cop or the prosecutor be punished? Sure the defendant has a claim that the late disclosure may have prejudiced his case (if it contained different info) But does anyone need to be "punished"? This is where I have a problem with DnD cries of "rampant proprietorial misconduct" Sure you have cases like Orange County, and I think every one of those fucks should be disbarred. But most "proprietorial misconduct" is poo poo like the above example, or saying the word "victim" during closing argument, hence the harmless error analysis.

Okay got a reporter question for you guys. Most of the local departments don't have Public Information officers, they aren't big enough for that. And some days it's hard trying to call up a Lieutenant to schedule an interview or to give a statement over the phone. Does it bug you having a news outlet send someone in person down to the station to get a statement?

Phuzzy posted:Okay got a reporter question for you guys. It bothers in the sense that some slick sleeve schmo has now gotta swing by to tell you in person what you were probably told over the phone. The chances of a "Walk In" reporter getting a statement at most departments is about 0% without prior scheduling or contacts. On the plus side you may be able to convince the new guy to give you a quote """off the record""".

No because the PIO is on call 24 hours a day and if nothing else the shift commander is authorized to speak on behalf of the department.

You know, you are right. The phone is on 24 hours a day. Whether you will get an answer or a call back is another story. No shift commanders he will speak, even if authorized. Admin command would be livid, they want the TV time.

One of the things that worked wonders for me, being in a small town with no dedicated Public Information Officer, was putting together a regular show featuring the chief of police. He got used to being interviewed, started working more closely with us, and was more forthcoming with information when we needed it. Plus, people loved being able to call in and bitch about red-light runners on main street to the chief.
