St. Louis Man Says He Caught Cops On Camera Asking Him To Help Plant Guns On Innocent People (VIDEO)

St. Louis Man Says He Caught Cops On Camera Asking Him To Help Plant Guns On Innocent People (VIDEO)

Twenty-one-year-old Terry Robinson says St. Louis police officers harassed and threatened him for two weeks, before he recorded them with his cell phone. Robinson says police wanted names of people who are not licensed gun owners in Missouri, suggesting that they intended to plant guns on those people. They also told him to produce “a gun and a body with it,” or else he would be sent back to jail.

3 videos released, at least one has been cropped to remove details and none show the only thing that people care about.

Angle 1

Angle 2

Angle 3

Angle 2 has a completely different aspect ratio (which makes everything appear stretched) and "Angle 3" is obviously the same camera as the first video with the left portion cropped out. You can tell this from the fact that the camera number is not present and the date stamp is to the left rather than centred. These discrepancies prove nothing in isolation, but they do raise questions as to how the video has been handled prior to release.

The last image is the camera set up immediately above the scene of the shooting. If the 2nd angle was too close/high, perhaps the other may have caught the incident in the right side of its view.

According to the International Business Times, the 34 year-old white cop who shot Martin was reportedly not wearing a body camera at the time of the shooting. The Guardian and Daily…

I think my problem with the Berkeley shooting is that a lot of people are saying that this case was totally different from Mike Brown and Eric Garner and that the officer was justified in his actions.

I do think that the situation was totally different, but it's still doesn't explain why the officer chose to shoot and kill with one shot rather than try to injure the man and bring him in.  Why is it that a man that shoots up a Colorado theater full of people gets taken in alive but this man was killed with one shot?

Oh wait.
