Chutzpah: Afroman's House Raided by Cops....Cops Sue Afroman....
....for using video from Afroman's surveillance cameras in a music video about.....those same cops raiding his house, and coming up with nothing.
Afroman is countersuing. Hope he's successful. The sheriffs busted up his house, took his money, eventually returned some of his money after 'losing' some of it, and left him to pick up the pieces of property destruction and having his wife and kids terrorized for nothing. https://www.fox19.com/2023/03/22/afr...ided-his-home/ Quote:
So, I bust into your house at gunpoint, terrorize your family, steal cash, destroy property, and I am the one who is traumatized? Alrighty then. Beyond the absolute absurdity here, it's well established that it's perfectly legal to video public servants in the course of their duty. Afroman didn't hang outside of their houses and stalk these deputies, they came to him, and he got video, captured before they figured it out and disabled his cameras. Why disable cameras if you're not doing anything wrong? |

Wow - you would think the guy was a Jan 6th protestor or something, lucky he wasn't locked up for two yeas for a misdemeanor.

You have to understand, LEOs need to have a RIGHT to privacy when they are stealing cash from tax-paying citizens. How are they supposed to pad their lifestyle if every time they try to pilfer a few tens of thousands of dollars from a private citizen, there is a camera looking over their shoulder?
Now, for the rest of their lives, they are going to have to deal with the fact that there is video out on the internet of them using their "authority" to burgle a home. How are they supposed to get the next gig to keep stealing? Have you even thought about this at all? |

There's a new tactic being employed by attorneys for these cases where cops have destroyed property looking for evidence. It is based on 5th amendment principles and was recently successful in Texas.

Obviously ALL cops should be banned. We need more defunding of the police! Only white folk commit crimes, so why are they breaking into some thug rapper house??

Would be very funny at the other place...
Having said that, I hope he gets an impartial process. At face value, this is total BS. |

They busted into his house, found nothing, took his money, failed to return it all after some of it mysteriously disappeared, and refused to even pay for what they broke. If police busted down my door, I'd expect them to pay for the damages, at minimum. |

The Streisand Effect hard at work here. I and many others knew nothing of the raid and music videos until these meatboys filed their suit and the media picked up on it. In my non-legal opinion they don't have a shot in hell of winning anything. It's pretty hard for a jury to find for the plaintiff when they are laughing at the evidence. For a credible legal opinion: |

I hope he takes the rotten cops to the cleaners. Unfortunately, it is the taxpayer who has to pay for their misdeeds.
