<content:encoded><![CDATA[and that footage right there shows exactly why when cops forcefully confiscate potential evidence of their wrongdoing and they themselves don't/can't provide the evidence to prove their innocence, they should be assumed guilty. Otherwise people like you would keep claiming they are innocent because their guilt can't be proven beyond a reasonable doubt. That shouldn't matter. They should be presumed guilty even if their guilt can't be proven just based on the fact that they confiscated potential evidence potentially supporting their guilt and they failed to provide any evidence proving their innocence. That their guilt can't be proven (assuming the absence of the above footage that did leak) is irrelevant.<br />
<br />
The fact that the phone was forcefully taken and no footage released from it should presume guilt. I don't want a forensic circus telling me that nothing happened. I want murder convictions. and I want huge penalties for the wrongful confiscation of evidence. I want it to be assumed that evidence proving their guilt was destroyed since no evidence proving their innocence was provided. The cops failed to provide it, they failed to bring their own cameras and they failed to provide the evidence from the confiscated camera of their innocence and the footage that did leak didn't absolve them of guilt, it proved their guilt (the earlier is important, the later is not since their guilt should be presumed unless proven otherwise). I want convictions.]]></content:encoded>

<br />
This evidence certainly doesn't absolve their guilt. No, it proves it. But even without this camera, there should be enough evidence otherwise to assume their guilt. The cameras being confiscated should result in even far more punishment than what they would otherwise receive even in the absence of the evidence that did leak out. That alone is intolerable.]]></content:encoded>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[This is all due to the fact that morons re-elected a president who doesn't respect the constitution. Obama simply thinks that only government has constitutional rights and that if you're someone they don't like, you don't get constitutional rights.<br />
<br />
The U.S. Constitution has been under attack a lot more since Obama took office. I hate to say but when the Departmenty of Justice has been the single department that has been singling out everyone in this country, then there's a serious breakdown. And I seem to recall someone stating that Obama is very familiar with constitutional law.<br />
<br />
The man is a moron. I'm just waiting because things are reaching a boiling point where Americans aren't going to take these attacks lying down any longer. Our country is simply under attack by Democrats and Republicans.<br />
<br />
The constitution should never be interpreted by politicians. That's something that should be left up to the courts.]]></content:encoded>
