A Baltimore cop, identified as Richard Pinheiro, was recorded on video planting drugs then "finding" them moments later - in front of two other unnamed cops. The video was made possible due to Pinheiro's body camera being designed to keep the 30 seconds of video prior to it being "switched on".
Charges against the civilian suspect have been dropped; no word yet on any criminal charges against any of the three cops.

Just makes them better at hiding their crimes (for those who get slightly embarrassed at getting caught, or get bored with "administrative leave" since they can't roam about extorting or shooting people).
