Sysop,

That is the entire point of my message. We dont know the TRUE facts either way. You can look at it both ways.


There are some ways to determine, however, if complaints have a tendency to be garbage, when people do not realize they are being recorded, or the actions of both parties are being investigated.

Those are typically situations where the "complaint" is investigated, based on evidence and testimony. IPRA normally handles those. They determined that MOST of these complaints (sometimes as high as 95% of them) were junk. My brother has tons of complaints that were filed against him by people. He also proved he couldnt have possibly done what the persons said he did because: 1. He wasnt signed in to work that weekend. 2. He was 4 hours away, with me and my family. 3. He provided receipts showing where he shopped, in that area.

People file complaints because they KNOW that the city will just pay them their lawsuits, and even if the person is lying, no harm/fine/punishment will come to them for lying. Wouldnt you possibly want to take advantage of that free roll?

You have to have a better understanding of just how fucked up this entire system is. Im not saying the CPD is innocent. Im saying that the system blows ass, and yet people with motives use it and bend/break/twist/straight-up fucking mangle the truth, to suit their agenda.

I definitely want body cameras though. Im not sure how they will be paid for. It will be very expensive, and the city isnt paying for many, many things now.
