Filming The KCMOPD Can Get You Hurt; and The Metropolitan Organization to Counter Sexual Assault

Filming The KCMOPD Can Get You Hurt

Filming the police is legal, but that doesn’t protect you from abuse and arrest if you try. Today’s guest, JJ was trying to help a lost girl at the Quik-Trip on Main find her parents when she was interrupted by an off duty KCPD officer. The officer didn’t seem to be helping the girl so JJ decided to film his badge number with her phone. The officer told her to stop filming and then she ended up on the concrete arrested for obstruction and trespassing.

Host Keith Brown El talks with JJ a woman that was roughed up by an off duty KCMOPD Officer when she tried film him.
