"even a relative in grief is more trustworthy than them."
So you'll take one group of people's history for lying over another based on...well, because the other group are cops
Because one history has had more extreme lying than the other history.
I'm not sure who's right or wrong in this one. From experience and simple reason, the cops story seems to mesh with reality more.
For someone who pointed out OWS in his second post, you sure are forgetting the large amount of fibbing that the police are doing about OWS...
Again, the police, as a modern institution, have shown themselves to not be trustworthy unless they provide evidence.
It says that he watched the tapes the cops took. I would think if he was there he'd be mentioned in the report and wouldn't need to see the video
I see...
Actually, I'm more inclined to believe the relative now. Since he saw the video that the rest of us haven't seen yet.
However, even if the man had a knife and a hatchet, here's a hypothetical scenario for everyone.
Let's say you accidentally pressed your medical alert bracelet, and the cops knock on your door and ask if you're alright. So you say you're alright. Suddenly, they begin to bash down your door. What do you do?
If it were me, I'd probably be scared shitless and try to find something to defend myself with.
