Video with a cop's comments
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hDY473BV4JY “As a cop (last 23 years), I had to laugh, because there are two things absolutely spot on in this scene. First is that the complainant straight up lied through her teeth and accused the person she is complaining on of something he didn’t do. We see that a lot, and it’s one reason why for misdemeanor complaints, we just refer them to the magistrate. It’s sad that the only thing protecting people from getting a criminal charge most of the time is the complainant’s laziness (they tend not to follow through when they find they actually have to carry their butts downtown to speak to the magistrate), but ti’s so. The second funny thing is that the cops really are quite powerless in this situation. All they have is an unsubstantiated complaint of an act they didn’t witness, and they have no authority whatever to compel Ray to speak, or come inside his home against his will. It’s just that most citizens don’t realize that for something like this, being so totally uncooperative — but not presenting any kind of active resistance — leaves the police no way to proceed at all with a complaint like this.”
