I totally agree with what the photographer said. And it's a shame the police not only treated him the way they did at the scene, but how they have continued to treat him and the situation to cover their own backsides instead of admit a mistake.

Cops never ever admit any wrongdoing.

An admission opens them up to a multi-million dollar lawsuit. I doubt that many here would be very open in a case like that either. Not that it makes their actions right.

Well at least Police Brutality is getting some air-time.
It's about time people realized what goes on in the streets around them on a daily basis.

The interview is a little unnecessary and a touch hypocritical though, and it kind of negates the point of the article.
