No LEO in New Mexico has Qualified Immunity any longer.
Will they change their aggressive bullying tactics, used on citizens that don't know their rights?
well what you will see is after a few cops are sued and go bankrupt is the rest moving to different states or finding other jobs. Would you work a job where you could be sued for making a mistake? Thats what happens in the real world.

It's not even just about making a mistake though--mistakes are where we can definitively establish where wrong doing has been done.
We're also talking about cops who follow protocol, but are then held and disciplined in the court of public opinion. The politicians, Police Commissioner, District Attorneys and Police Chiefs are also cow towing to the same court of opinion.
What does a cop actually gain by taking a risk in a dangerous situation when he/she can collect a check by doing absolutely nothing?

Wrong, it's the interpretation of the data on the camera that's also being held in the court of public opinion.
Most police who do not favor body cams are against them for tactical reasons.
Tactical reasons such as? My local department cited budget as the reason they were against them, they just bought two new helicopters.
The public opinion wouldn't be an issue if the camera were recording 100% of the time, record everything. Make the videos public.
