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.’”
Predators love positions of authority and control.

Not exactly exonerating.
It’s enough for his coworkers to defend him apparently. Ugh.
