There are always many subtle levels to the truth, but if you got beat up by cpd, the burden of proof exists on you and without their video it would be hard to prove.
sucks, and I believe you based on one experience I had with cpd years ago.
driving down Vulcan off of Nike in Hilliard. We were using it as a shorter path from Walcutt to Nike rather than Roberts to Hilliard Rome. We got pulled over for literally nothing. My friend ask why we were being pulled over and the CPD guy said "get out of the car". My friend complied and offered his lic and reg.
the cpd officer said "I don't need that".
my friend said "ok, what do you need from me?"
the cpd officer threw a punch, my friend ducked.
this is no bs, it is exactly how it happened. the cpd officer was mad that he missed and looked at me, looked at my friend, and then decided to let us go.
"I don't want to see you out here anymore"
I still use that road, I showed him.
