The arrest was for verbally abusing a police officer, not homophobia.

We do contempt of cop here too. It's a capital offense in the US though.
I’m just relieved our police are never routinely armed with firearms, and may that continue forever.
An understandable mistake. Her name is "Badman", after all.
Even the unborn are not safe from "justice".

If you "lose" body cam footage, it should be assumed that whatever was lost was incriminating and you should be suspended pending investigation. No exceptions.
