Eleven Dallas law enforcement officers were shot, three fatally, by what is believed to be two snipers who opened fire during a demonstration downtown over recent police shootings in Minnesota and Louisiana, the Dallas police chief said.
The snipers fired from an elevated positions on police officers minutes before 9 p.m., Dallas Police Chief David Brown told reporters.
"We believe that these suspects were positioning themselves in a way to triangulate on these officers from two different perches in garages in the downtown area, and planned to injure and kill as many law enforcement officers as they could," he said. Some were shot in the back.
Three of the 11 officers died, two are in surgery and three are in critical condition, Brown said.

I read somewhere that Wisconsin police don't have body cams. At least not yet.
In comparison with the woman who in initially very stoic, the cop seems to be in a state of hysteria.

From the article that I posted that you read: "St. Anthony Police Officers dont wear body cameras."

That may be true, but this took place in Minnesota.
Speaking of cameras, do you find it odd that she started recording after the shots? Could it be there's more video before the shots which would negate her story and justify the shooting?

Then I'll amend to say the state where the incident took place does not have body cams for police.
No, it is not "odd" at all. Until shots were fired, there would have been minimal reason to record anything.
The possibilities are endless, aren't they? Except that if the guy wanted to do a shootout with the cop who stopped him for a broken tail light with his 4 year old in the back seat, and his girlfriend in the passenger seat, he'd need a pretty good motive.

From what I've read elsewhere, I'm not sure it's his 4-year-old or his girlfriend.
Be that as it may, certainly if she started recording as soon as they were pulled over -- and if her story was true -- it would be damning evidence against the police version of events, right? What possible good is a video after the shots were fired?

Your powers of deduction are incredible.
Well it does show the cop in a state of hysteria, screaming and such, while she remained respectful and calm. It also shows the cop not seeking to administer first aid to try to save the guy, and not immediately calling for an ambulance.
All in all, the cop seems very...... paranoid.

It's not paranoia if they're really after you. If you're any example, this cop will be lucky if he keeps his job.
His "side bitch" is calm because she knows she'll continue to get her welfare, housing and food stamps.

Oh, he'll probably not be criminally penalized or fired, because there are no body cams or audio recordings to back up the woman's claim of events. He will be taken at his word that he told the guy not to reach for his license while her contradictory testimony will not be considered reliable.
AS for paranoia, it is a feeling of fear that others want to harm you, regardless of whether it is true or not. One can be justly paranoid. It's another word for you to learn about, after "mock".

Whoa! Who said the cop asked for his license? Yeah. The girl.
Who said he told the cop he had a concealed carry license. Again. The girl.
Who said they were pulled over for a busted taillight? The girl. That's a lie and I suspect the other statements are also.

CNN is a poor source for information. Some jurisdictions in Minnesota have body cameras, some do not. It is still in the process of being rolled out.

At the end he makes a good point -- law enforcement is unable to get their side of the story out. That needs to change.
There's nothing we can do about the lies put out by the other side, but the public deserves to have both sides, sooner rather than later.
