Bodhipaksa@pixplz @anders_von_hadern @stux Thank you for letting us know this is fake. It did strike me as a bit staged.

I don't know how bodycams work in the US but probably if it was real, it would never have been published

@jaj @pixplz @anders_von_hadern @stux
Probably not in this case. I can only remember seeing body camera footage being published when there's controversy (freedom of information acts, subpoenas, etc). It's probably not going to happen for a minor confrontation between a cop and a meter maid, unless, you know, he shot her and claimed he thought her notepad was a gun.
Ray Gulick, he/him/wtf ๐บ๐ฆ โ๐He seems to be holding a drink. Was his 'official police business' getting coffee at a coffee shop?

Nathan A. Stine@stinerman @rgulick While they should be the ones setting the example..
@stinerman @rgulick It's disgusting
Lenz Grimmer@stux You are one a power trip! Says the person clearly NOT on a power trip who thinks he's above the law.
Marquise de What ๐จ๐ฆ@stux Iโve seen this going around, itโs pretty great. It is, however, a scripted reenactment scene, not actual news.
Still great, however.
Still great, however.
ts ๐@marquisedewhat great and incredibly accurate, yeah
Larry Garfield@marquisedewhat @stux Citation?
echo ex machinait's probably best practice online to look for a citation that something is authentic, rather than believe things by default until they're debunked

RayneToday@EchoExMachina Uh-huh. Never heard of "Lead Stories" let alone "Uliana Malashenko," whose family name is Russian, easily traced to Bryansk oblast east of Belarus.
@raynetoday Regardless of the author's surname, the article cites *the video's source* where it has a disclaimer saying their videos are produced content and not real bodycam footage.
https://bodycamdeclassified.com/#licensing
"PLEASE NOTE: The content on Body Cam Declassified is created and produced content, not actual bodycam footage from official sources."
"Our videos represent original creative works that we script, film, edit, and produce ourselves."
@EchoExMachina That's what you should have led with, especially since your account is whopping 8 weeks old, has few follows/followers/posts.
Don't just expect people to trust some unknown news site that could be pink slime.
@EchoExMachina @raynetoday But theyโre not the OP. @stux is, and they have edited their post to add that itโs a re-enactment.
Thx Echo for volunteering the citations! I didnโt have time to do that. :)
Thx Echo for volunteering the citations! I didnโt have time to do that. :)
@marquisedewhat @EchoExMachina But whatever. If you're going to make a cogent, trustworthy criticism, bring credible receipts upfront ESPECIALLY when you don't have a history on Mastodon to support your credibility.
Now I'm going liberate you from wasting our time any further. *block*
Nah. Thanks but no, not relying on a site that in turn relies on revenue from Meta and ByteDance.
@raynetoday it's an IFCN-verified fact-checking site and their link to the video's source was like two paragraphs down... at a certain point it stops being my responsibility to spoon feed information to folks
@EchoExMachina @marquisedewhat @stux Thanks.
You're not wrong, but it's also helpful to lead with the citation in such cases.
BlechTerror STOPPEN@Crell @EchoExMachina @marquisedewhat While staged, it is loosely based on a real case: https://www.nbcchicago.com/news/local/cops-receive-million-parking-ticket/1889077/
CrazyDogLadysezBreatheWithMe@marquisedewhat @stux Yeah, I was thinking how did the โcopโ body cam get on TikTok?
Earthshine@stux here on official police donut shop business
Jenica@stux for one, I don't like parking tickets, I think it's a waste of time. But this? This is gold! This is exactly what parking attendants need to be doing, ACAB.
Michael Vilain@mvilain ? Did this happen? It could be that a handicap space still requires meter payment or there was another issue...
@tsyum @mvilain No, it didn't happen. It's fake: https://leadstories.com/hoax-alert/2025/05/fact-check-video-does-not-show-cop-losing-his-mind-over-parking-ticket.html

@tsyum It was a handicap space outside a Whole Foods ON THE STREET about 10 years ago. The meter maid started writing the ticket before checking the dash for the placard and I guess didn't see the license plate.

๐ฟ๐ถ๐๐ถ "not yet begun to fight"@stux she got arrested.
@anubis2814 @stux no, I watched the next two parts from the op on TikTok.
@Lana @anubis2814 @stux He follows her, destroys her ticket machine (city property), arrests her. What do you think are the legal consequences?

Unfortunately I haven't found reliable journalistic news on it yet.
@Lana @anubis2814 @stux PS. it's a FAKE! https://leadstories.com/hoax-alert/2025/05/fact-check-video-does-not-show-cop-losing-his-mind-over-parking-ticket.html
Thanks to @pixplz
BUT it is a reenactment of a REAL case: In 2006, three police officers acted similar, the meter maid was later rewarded $1.5 million in damages: https://amy-movie.com/blog/viral-bodycam-video-showing-cop-threatening-parking-officer-is-fake/

Everyone needs to stop making stuff up and spreading lies.
Regardless of the topic.
Robin Barton@stux Good for her. People like police need to be held to a higher standard and now a lower one. I hope she still has her job

@stux Wonder what a judge would do in this circumstance.
Interesting that she can ticket the car but could a towing company tow it without risking it's business license? Towing government vehicles is a no no.
Firefighters wouldn't hesitate to break it's windows to reach a fire hydrant.
In any case, his shift supervisor isn't going to be happy with him, especially with this video going viral.
