Shock video:Cops Caught Turning Off Cameras Before Further Beating Man “Hold Up We’re Red Right Now!
by Ashley Jones Alternate Current Radio Network
St. Louis, MO — A lawsuit was filed, and charges have been dropped after dash cam video was released showing St. Louis cops turning off their cameras prior to further assaulting an 18-year-old man.
St. Louis, MO- A lawsuit was filed on behalf of an 18 yr old man named Cortez Bufford claiming that St. Louis police had turned off there camera’s before they further assaulted him. I know what your thinking,your thinking that Mr.Cortez made up this elaborate story, because the police would never do something that shady.
Well, in this case you would be dead wrong for thinking that, due to the fact that in the dash cam footage that his lawyer released you can actually hear a female officer say “Hold up. Hold up, y’all. Hold up. Hold up, everybody, hold up. We’re red right now, so if you guys are worried about cameras, just wait.”When the St Louis prosecutor saw the dash cam video of her officers trying to cover up a crime, they had no choice but to drop all charges against Mr. Cortez.

Police dash cam shows part of contested arrest – until St. Louis officer turns camera off
ST. LOUIS • As video cameras begin to sweep post-Ferguson policing — and policymakers grapple with whether to bar the public from watching the images — one such recording sits at the heart of a new lawsuit.
It shows St. Louis police making an arrest that would later be called abusive, and catches an apparently surprised officer yelling, in part, “Everybody hold up. We’re red right now!” before she abruptly shuts off the camera.
Joel Schwartz and Bevis Schock, lawyers who filed suit Jan. 22 on behalf of Cortez Bufford, said “red” is cop slang for a running camera. What is seen before the video stops, they claim, supports their accusations in St. Louis Circuit Court that police lacked probable cause and applied excessive force.
The video, which St. Louis Mayor Francis Slay’s office had asked a private lawyer to delay releasing last summer, shows city officers pull Bufford from a car, kick him repeatedly and shock him with a Taser. It played a role in the dropping of charges against Bufford.
