didn't think too much of it being a "hoax" until now. What are they hiding? Victims dead. Killer dead. Why should "evidence" be deleted?

Wait just a minute...........

From the OP's link

"Strasser tweeted that he and McKelvey were told the footage “could be evidence,” and that they were forced to delete it."

That makes no sense. If it's evidence, the last thing the cops want to do is delete it. Do cops raid homes for drugs and then tell the home owner to flush the drugs because they could be used for evidence?

Something is not right here.

Great CATCH OP!

Sorry to spam on your thread but it directly points why the crisis actors got angry when the statementpointing additional footage was mentioned in my pinned thread

Thread: Why Were The Crisis Actors Of Victim's Father and Boyfriend Get Angry Over Being Asked For Evidence?
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 70100602


The title of your thread is greatly misleading. The so called "evidence" that was deleted has nothing to do with the Megan Kelly interview. She simply asked of the camera man was a hero for pointing the camera as the shooter.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 68393094


She said to "get more evidence of who the shooter " then was cut off. not asked for.. But you get the gist.

First off, the reporter himself says the footage was poor footage anyhow. He didn't record anything worthwhile.

Secondly, the evidence comment the reporter is so puzzled about isn't all that puzzling. The cop isn't saying he wants evidence destroyed. He's saying that that footage may contain evidence they are gathering and that they don't want it entering the public realm until the case is processed and what not.

That's pretty common practice. Now whether he had a legal right to actually make the guy delete the footage, well, it appears he did not have that right. He overstepped his boundaries there.

Which is another thing cops tend to do on an all too regular basis.

Common practice would be to confiscate the card so they could have more evidence. Not says it contains evidence and have them delete. Makes no sense. Imo

Re: WOW!!! BBC journalists covering Virginia shooting 'threatened by police,' forced to delete footage
Sorry but this asshole is BS too.

the video journalist (Strasser):

"Strasser said that he decided to delete the footage because “it was either not being able to work for the rest of the day, without camera or car, or delete crappy footage from far away.” He added that he “chose the latter.”...(MO - Oh boohoo, you can't work for the rest of the day - we'll see you in the poor house!!! crybaby! - Apparently he'll never go to jail to protect his sources!)

^^^what a bunch of f-in BS lazy ass video journalist!!

Hell, I could contact my employer (that is if I was actually a good/great video journalist!) and say my car, camera and all was confiscated at the scene - --come get me, bring me another camera and I can continue with my work day here....what a bunch of BS!

Oh gee, maybe they should have instant download to the station if shit like this might happen!!!!

Gawd I hate this f-in corrupt BS media!!!!!

Just to make fun of people who think TV is real life, is all. Nothing personal, I assure you. I can enjoy the entertainment of professional wrestling--but I don't try to tell myself that it is real.

The hoaxers actually have something to lose, so I understand where they are coming from; but if your side is right--what do you gain exept a race war and a (more) totalitarian regime?

Part of the reason they behave that way though is because they rarely get in trouble for it anyhow.

That in itself is evidence. Do you not think HOW evidence is gathered is important in a case? Police mishandling of evidence, for example. Many a case has been thrown out for that very reason.
