Production Company Takes Swipe at Cop Watchers after Cops Kill “COPS”

A crew member of the television show Cops was [__shot and killed by a cop__](http://photographyisnotacrime.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/the-cops-crew-member-injured-in-a-police-shootout-has-died-production-company-says) in Nebraska this week while trying to record footage of a confrontation between police and an armed robber.

Video of the shooting has not been released, but, of course, police say they have reviewed the footage and claim the cop acted within policy, even if the suspect only had an air gun.

Fair enough. Bryce Dion, 38, knew the risks accepting the job as an audio engineer for the long-running show that never fails to paint the cops as heroes, so I will give the cops the benefit of the doubt in this case for now.

However, in mourning his death, a television production company that specializes in pro-cop reality shows took a bizarre shot at citizens who record cops, accusing them of having “no good motive” and promising to “continue to stand with police officers with our cameras to tell the real story, expose the evil acts that destroy our society and help capture the killers that still walk free.”

In other words, [__Crime Stoppers Case File Chicago__](http://photographyisnotacrime.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/CSCFChicago?fref=photo) is trying its best not to lose its access to police embedment and the advertising dollars that come with painting cops as brave heroes now that police may have second thoughts about allowing television crews from riding with them in the wake of Dion’s death.

But as much as America loves their cop reality shows, it is those citizens on the streets with their low quality cameras and their Youtube accounts that have provided us with the true reality of how cops act on the streets.

Thanks to them, we now know who the real Bad Boys are.

Support our Mission

Help us build a database of bad cops

For almost 15 years, PINAC News has remained active despite continuous efforts by the government and Big Tech to shut us down by either arresting us for lawful activity or by restricting access to our readers under the pretense that we write about “social issues.”

Since we are forbidden from discussing social issues on social media, we have created forums on our site to allow us to fulfill our mission with as little restriction as possible. We welcome our readers to join our forums and support our mission by either donating, volunteering or both.

Our plan is to build a national database of bad cops obtained from public records maintained by local prosecutors. The goal is to teach our readers how to obtain these lists to ensure we cover every city, county and state in the country.

After all, the government has made it clear it will not police the police so the role falls upon us.

It will be our most ambitious project yet but it can only be done with your help.

But if we succeed, we will be able to keep innocent people out of prison.
