I kind of share the sentiment expressed in the final quote of the article. From the way the dataset is described this could be really helpful to criminals and really harmful and dangerous for other folks - police and civilian alike.

I would rather have an extra criminal on the streets than risk ruining someones live that is innocent because some cop planted evidence.

Just this week a bodycam from NYC officer shows him planting drugs over 2 years ago. The person who's involved took a plea deal because they didn't want to risk going to jail for many years. The cop still has his job and this wasn't the first time.

Try getting a job in the US with a criminal record.

Do the cops not comprehend that they were recording themselves while committing crimes against the people they are sworn to protect?

> against the people they are sworn to protect?

This is a misnomer.

Cops are not actually "to protect and serve", and this has been proven in court.

Their function is to uphold the law. That's it.
