Though APD fired Eder on July 17, prosecutors officially refused to move forward with felony stalking charges in the case.
Prosecutors are part of the problem
especially the DA, wants to be re-elected, having campaign funds. prosecutors are likely in the same sitiautions, want to advance thier careers, needs police support/police donor support.
ACAB includes prosecutors
DA’s protect shitty cops all the time.
An internal audit revealed Eder used police databases to monitor the victim over a five-month span.
Eder turned himself into the Potter County Jail and was released on a single, $4,500 bond for all 78 charges combined.
$4500 for 78 charges?? People get higher bail for selling weed.
cop= discount jail scentence, and discounted fines.
off-duty access of active body cameras was not an unusual practice within the department.
Why the hell not?

Typical, they are looking out for their own.
Because of that legal classification, the victim said the county attorney’s office initially told him it would be difficult for him to access standard victim advocacy services.
WTF??
Flock should be pushing for new regs here and for this guy to be prosecuted. It would make everyone more comfortable with the cameras.
Just an FYI, if a company is ever actively pushing for regulation where they are a part of the equation, you should be suspicious. Like in your example, they wouldn’t actually care about the regulation beyond the PR of “look look we think this shouldn’t be allowed either!”
They should fuck off and cease to exist
Flock’s actual response.

Compromise on our security for your profits? Get bent!
I think stronger language might be called for here. 🤔
Flock is not going to be meaningfully regulated until a cop deletes a whole family in a public way.
I would not be surprised if a cop had already done so privately and it’s just been covered up.
It’s coming. The first case where somebody kills a cop in self defense.
99.99% sure that’s happened before, 99.99% sure it will happen again, 99.99% sure the other guy won’t survive. Or will get 50 years in jail (along with the six people closest to him).
Three Generations punishment like in NK
Ummmmmmm
What’s my take away from this comment supposed to be?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Killing_of_Nathan_Heidelberg
Oil company exec was acquitted
However, when you’re not an oil exec, you get convicted of murder
A little different than the scenario I had envisioned. One of these days the death won’t be a mistake.
It has happened.
When? I’m not aware of any cases. No cops were killed when they shot and killed Breonna Taylor.
There’s the Wilson shooting in Texas, but that guy was reckless, it wasn’t really self defence.
You dont hear about it. The people who killed in self defence are then killed by the backup.
You’re 3 comments into a conversation on the topic and none of us have actually heard anything about them.
Exactly, they murdered a cop. You will not be told that it was self defence.
Shocking but not unexpected :( I hope he’s able to find justice.
Justice against a cop in America? LMFAO
