Officials are investigating a shocking video that purports to show a U.S. marshal destroying the phone of a recording bystander.

The video was uploaded to YouTube on April 19 in South Gate, California, within Los Angeles County. In the clip, recorded from a building across the street, a bystander appears to be filming and talking to uniformed officials responding to a report of a biker gang meeting. A man wearing a bulletproof vest and carrying a weapon then grabs her phone, slamming it to the ground before kicking it down the street.

The U.S. Marshals Service identified the man as a U.S. marshal, but his name has not been released.

This is deserving of follow up to see what happens to this "marshall". Perhaps job loss, perhaps federal charges for violation of citizens 1st amendment rights, perhaps fat chance, eh?. Having this fat fuck in civil court for the rest of his fucking life would satisfy me.

Your comprehension skills are lacking today, but as usual your lack of contextual sophistication...

I am the law and I am above it ... it is almost impossible to change this attitude with a section of the police force.

An officer of the law, seizing a camera (private property) and destroying it, possibly because he feared it would catch him doing something improper, or downright abusive perhaps, should give everyone pause.

Cops getting rid of witnesses is not a good sign. It's what criminals do.

Your parents were siblings.

"She was interfering with a police investigation and was dealt with. She should consider herself fortunate that she was not arrested for trespassing and obstruction of justice."

And the camera? Police thought this could be a weapon and she didn't surrender it. Anyone want to bet this won't fly?

It's all a matter of interpretation.
