Whoooey!
Found in Usenet, watched all four video clips.
Someone had their car wired for sound, someone else hidden with a video camera, when the police decided to pull the car over for no reason other than a random check.
The lady complains about being stopped and asked for her papers...
That wasn't "someone hidden with a video camera", it was a video recording unit in the cop car - and the audio was probably wireless mike(s) going back to that same recorder - it's frequently used for traffic or DUI stops, to record evidence against the accused. The "VSP" in the lower left corner is most likely Virginia State Police, the agency whose officers were involved in the interaction. The video probably got to the website via the defendant, who received it through the pretrial discovery process. -- Greg Broiles gbroiles@well.com "Organized crime is the price we pay for organization." -- Raymond Chandler
