Some of the most popular ones take place in Louisiana too.
What I've noticed is a lot of the suspects are committing misdemeanors but their mouths get them to a full-blown felony.
Donut had the best commentary on them.

No, they make me sad.

Rarely is it a good interaction. It’s either a power tripping cop or an a-hole in the car who is taking advantage of a cop trying to do his best.

I don’t want to see that shite.

Yeah I watch OIS body cam videos all the time. Really help underscore how fast shite goes down sometimes. That is a tough job.

For the simple traffic stop videos, one key takeaway: don't commit two crimes at the same time. ie: speeding while holding drugs

Bunch of people that need to shut their mouth at the beginning, middle, and end of each interaction… but don’t. They wind up either admitting something, giving probable cause, or flat putting them under suspicion for something else.

Time after time after time.

I still believe one of the biggest groups to watch the show Cops are criminal attorneys that wake their neighbors yelling “shut your damn mouth idiot!”

I enjoy the sovereign citizen idiots who claim they are "travelers" and are not required to have a drivers license. The meltdowns are hysterical.

You do realize that there are far more friendly interactions that exist, but there is no desire from people to watch a cordial speeding ticket citation. The bad or dangerous encounters (aka the interesting ones) are what people want to see and are what will be posted.

Yeah I realize that.

But the question was "Is anyone else addicted to police body cam videos?"

My answer is no.

I went down that rabbit hole for awhile, but over time the whining becomes annoying, and the same stuff happens and the same stuff is said over and over; just different people. You'll get bored with it and move on.

One thing I did realize is that when the suspects go full retard, cops should be able to stuff their mouth with a sock and put duct tape over it.

The "give him a ticket" freak out one is the goat and there's another one with the same crazy chick. Definitely worth the watch if you haven't yet

Right. But your apparent reasoning was because it is rarely a good interaction. And those are rarely posted because nobody really cares to see those. Hell, do the police even release them for good encounters? Or is it just when something goes wrong and they show the recordings for informational purposes?

My wife loves watching them. She especially enjoys the women that scream like insane maniacs but then start bawling like toddlers when the cuffs finally go on. There are a Lot of bipolar lasses out there.

I wouldn't say I'm addicted, but I watch religiously as it brings my heart great joy to see POS, thugs, and human trash get what they deserve.

My favorite ones have an ending that won't cost the taxpayers gobs of money by incarcerating an idiot for decades.

Police Activity


Way too many good ones to list, but I show this one in class (the 2nd and 3rd camera angles are scary good).
Idiot

They made me realize being an airport cop would be fun as hell plus you know the suspect isn't packing heat.

I'd say 80% of the suspects are booked on Frontier or Spirit. (Being a customer service rep for those airlines should get hazard pay)

It is incredible how much action can go down at Orlando's airport alone.

No. Watched a few on tik tok and it took like a month to get them off my algorithm.

I binge watch the YouTube channel "Police Activity", I think theyre the best on that site. Shows the good and bad cops, as well as some headlining cam footage. Makes you see the reality of the shite they deal with from the general public.
