Yes, sports fans, it can't get more ridiculous than this. Guilty cops thought they destroyed all the video cameras. But they missed at least one. And since they thought there were no cameras, they thought their destructive activities were private.

SANTA ANA – Three Santa Ana police officers want to quash a surveillance video that shows officers making derogatory comments about a disabled woman and possibly snacking on pot edibles during a recent raid of a medical marijuana dispensary.
A lawsuit, filed last week in Orange County Superior Court by three unidentified police officers and the Santa Ana Police Officers Association, seeks to prevent Santa Ana Police Department internal affairs investigators from using the video as they sort out what happened during the May 26 raid of Sky High Collective.
"We entered a place that we knew to have surveillance equipment. We had no expectation of privacy because of the cameras, so we destroyed the cameras. The place having no cameras meant we had a reasonable expectation of privacy. Because of that, the presence of cameras violated our rights to privacy."
Yes, the police have that video of me robbing the liquor store, but I disabled all the cameras I knew about, so I had a reasonable expectation of privacy, and I demand the video evidence against me be quashed.
The police by eating the pot edibles, and other actions committed crimes. Thus there is little difference between the two scenarios.

Yes, this could become a new line of defense for all sorts of crimes. The "I thought I had privacy" defense.

Santa Ana is a 99% mexican city with corruption worse than any in mexico. The city is corrupt at all levels - this is the result of uncontrolled illegal immigration.
I think it's the same city the ciops had to make like 60 trips to a massage parlor over two years for happy endings, to "collect evidence" of prostitution.

You can't seriously expect that you would have to the same immunity from the laws that bad cops think they are entitled? That's crazy talk.
Congratulations. You've won the gross exaggeration award for the week. Your prize would be a trip to Floral Park but the residents have voted to send you to Tijuana (an actual Mexican city) instead.
There is nothing lower than people who abuse their power. That includes child abusers, wife abusers, animal abusers and cops who abuse their power.
