An auditor lawfully photographing police vehicles is suddenly escalated into a terrorism detention, his camera seized, and twelve hours spent in custody. No charges follow — only a lawsuit, after the police overreach falls apart under legal scrutiny.

Idiots
That will be a big payout. Usually there just searched then released and end up with 1500 quid. Locking him up for 12 hours for filming is going cost unfortunately not them the tax payers big. There comete clowns.
The biggest terrorists are worried about terrorism
A lawsuit did NOT explode. Clickbait + AI voice = blocked from freed
This police Sgt clearly has neve been in s unit that tackles terorists
Just more incredibly dumb pigs, ten a penny, they're everywhere. They don't like people taking their reg because they're ashamed people and neighbours might find out that they're nazi tyrants. Can't blame them really, who in their right mind would be proud to be a lowlife scumbag pig.?
HOW MANY COPS DO NOT KNOW THEIR JOB OR THE LAW. ABOUT 95% I THINK !!
UK Audit Network go do your own audits/videos and get the likes/subscribers through your own work, using other people's videos is disgusting.
They get a teeny bit of power and lose their minds.
This is why they should do a lot of heavy lifting before they put a law on the books. The cops will always abuse any law they can. They are using the terrorism act for everything except terrorism and everyone, brass, politicians and victims know it. Put an end to it.
Cowards
It’s all public information you idiot you can record anything you can see from a public place
Makes no difference what vehicle is on the camera they keep making false statements because if you’re threatening with arrest you have to give the reason for detaining him
DVLA will not give out names and addresses from an enquiry about a reg. number.They only give exact type
yes, at this threat level and still you haven't read your instructions that filming popo stations is LEGAL, and allowed from public.
Believe that the terror threat was caused by the canteen running out of bacon.Need clarity on whether a lawsuit was started ,not just a vague mention
Is that at a pig sty
Cop on ego trip lost his mind 😊
Blue cloth gang bully boys
Then the parrots 🦜 turn up
These auditors are just looking for confrontation to make a video so sad, this is not public interest to film police stations so stop wasting police time
Bullies
Get everyone of them arrested for kidnap and false imprisonment
Do police take pictures of people out and about in the UK today
This an old video , That copper was so full of his own bullshit 😊
AI commentary is spoiling the point of the discussion its getting worse by the day😮
The terrorist level is high at the moment, I wonder why that is??!!
The poor old Sergeants ego got in the way of his very poor judgement
He is a petty little boy . I'm the boss so do what I tell you or I will a cry
10:08 so now this lot think they can secretly arrest you. Amd the home secretary wants more? Wasn't the 5000 that shouldn't be in the police enough? God help us.
Darlo police are dirt dogs your videoing saved your life
He doesn't need to voice out his reasoning because there's five officers there to make up offences against him
I'm surprised there never deleted his footage
This is why they are hated
All them cops. Not many brain cells
Walks upto him and tells him to keep his distance..trying to force an assault…disgusting and vile
police timewaster. stop making their job difficult. fool
No one should be able to take photos of police vehicles
Has everyone forgotten the troubles
No mask on. This suggests this video is 5 years old.
LEGALISE ALL DRUGS IMMEDIATELY
REPEAL TERRIBLE THERESA'S PSYCHOACTIVE SUBSTANCES ACT NOW
TAKE BACK CONTROL
LEGALISE ALL DRUGS
REPEAL AUTHORITARIAN LAWS
ive then a uniform and they think thay are god. Sacking is the only way and sue them.
Poor recruitment, poor training, poor leadership and poor judgment 😊
This auditor was eventually arrested, charged, tried, and guilty for illegally filming aspeed camera crew. He received a suspended sentence and stopped auditing altogether after being proved wrong in court.
It is important to note the UK is not the USA so bear this in mind.
Key points regarding taking pictures or filming police stations:
Public vs. Private Land: You generally have the right to film from public pavements, but police station grounds and car parks are often restricted to authorized personnel.
