I'd also like to know what you civilians are using for video. I'd love to have something small that recorded on a 30-minute loop.

I think, from the description GigAg04 and others have given in this and other threads, that the police recorders are always on, but when activated keep the data from that point on and do not overwrite the preceding 30 seconds, or whatever they have it set for, prior to activation.

I'm sorry, but this LEO didn't care about the truth. He only saw what he wanted to see and left no room for any other possibility. I have also been a victim of this type of abuse and luckily it only cost me several hundred dollars nearly 30 years ago. And we are usually at their mercy with no way to prove what the truth of the matter was. Fortunately, I have not come into contact with another officer like that since then.
