Here is a great example of how St. Louis cops utilize their new cameras...to make sure a potential bad guy gets summarily released.

"Hey guys, before you kick the crap out of that dude, make sure you turn your cameras off."

I shit you not, these cops are dumber than mollusks!

Bufford was named on a felony charge of unlawful use of a weapon and a misdemeanor of resisting arrest. Lab results later showed just under four grams of marijuana were recovered. The charges were dropped Aug. 26.

Schwartz said it was because the tape contradicted the police report.

But a circuit attorney’s spokeswoman, Susan Ryan, disputed that, saying Friday the case was dismissed because “the action of turning off the dash cam video diminished the evidentiary merits of the case.” She also said a review showed the officers did not break the law, although prosecutors notified police Internal Affairs about the video being stopped.
