Police who raided a marijuana store, destroying security cameras and the DVR, harassing the store's customers, consuming edible marijuana products, and playing darts, were caught on camera. The cops claim that said recording is illegal because the cops had an expectation of privacy after destroying all of the security cameras.
I wish I could make up this stuff.

Gotcha, thanks. So, shoot the slow/bad ones to make the rest do a better job rather than make an example of the bad one to discourage bad behavior in the rest.

As my original comment was "Fire each and every officer involved in the raid,, "Pour encourager les autres", I disagree. I would include the Chief of Police and chain of command to the raid as well.
