Sweet jeebers, no. Hire humans to watch the videos — preferably people who’ve been beaten up by LAPD cops. It would end unemployment in California. That’s more than enough to watch every video 'round the clock.

    I feel like the complaint aspect would work perfectly anyway, if something was done wrong a complaint is filed and footage is reviewed. Otherwise just continue as usual. Seems excessive to review footage where no party filed a complaint

      Many people are scared of the police or don’t know how to lodge complaints.

      It may be excessive for us, but they’re public employees who hold an extreme amount of power. I think a little bit more precaution in keeping them in order is fair given the role.

      Agreed. Normally, that is. But in this case there were concerns that an entire department wasn’t behaving.
