“As a result of the numerous legal cases that have proven recording police officers is not a crime, authorities are getting more creative in attempting to stop abuse by law enforcement offices ending up as a viral video on YouTube. In the clip above, Detective Shannon Todd of the Newark Police Gang Unit approaches a man who is recording a police stop on his cell phone, ordering him to, ‘put your phone down, put it in your pocket.’ Despite acknowledging that the device is a phone, when the man refuses to follow the unlawful order, Todd remarks, ‘I need to hold on to it,’ before stating, ‘May I look at it and inspect it to ensure it’s not a firearm.'”
