Body camera footage shows police surveillance abuse is common: "We’ve told them over and over again: 'You see a hot chick, you don’t look them up in a database.'"

Body camera footage obtained by 404 Media shows a police officer explaining why he used police databases and license plate reader cameras to research, stalk, and pull over a woman he met on the set of a TV show. “I mean, I saw a shiny thing, teasing and all that,” the cop said in the footage. “I knew that when I put that [into the system], I was like ‘Fuck.’”
