Sherita Dixon-Cole accused Officer Daniel Hubbard of sexual assault and activist Shaun King bought it seemingly with little issue.

Once the camera footage came out, the backpedaling began:

It's beautiful. It's delicious. My day just brightens up when someone's gullibility comes back to bite them in the ass in such a big way...

I just hope some sort of legal action can be taken against Cole and King to give people the heads up that you can't just make up claims nor can you push them either. This officer's life was put at risk.

More camera tech in more places please. Cameras are the ultimate witness.

She got caught. Good. But clearly, you never liked them and their 'activist' activities. Having seen true police brutality, I can tell you that no one/group owns the exclusive right to morality or crime. Also, do we need actual video footage of sexual harassment before people can bring it forward? Heck no that is ridiculous. Either way, your post seems like group thought telling me what I should think about certain kinds of people and I know that Fox will enforce that and the last thing any of us needs is actual news wrapped up in poor attempt at dog whistling. Its not beautiful that this guy was tricked and had his credibility harmed by an obvious liar. No one deserves that not a cop and not an activist.

Body cams are good for both sides, keep the cops in check so they don't go overboard and stop false claims like this one. Good job America

Even with body cams, justice isn't served and people still get away on both sides. But I'm glad this one turned out right. Just wish that would be the case for all instances.

"But clearly, you never liked them and their 'activist' activities."

>I don't like King. He seems awfully gullible.

"Also, do we need actual video footage of sexual harassment before people can bring it forward?"

>No but we need it before we broadcast it as fact which King did.

"Either way, your post seems like group thought telling me what I should think about certain kinds of people"

>That gullible people are dumb and potentially dangerous?

"and I know that Fox will enforce that"

>I know it's Fox but let the article speak for itself.

"and the last thing any of us needs is actual news wrapped up in poor attempt at dog whistling."

>Dog whistling?

"Its not beautiful that this guy was tricked and had his credibility harmed by an obvious liar. No one deserves that not a cop and not an activist."

>He did this to himself when he reported a false story as fact. It's his own fault and I hope this proves to be a lovely and expensive learning moment for him.

It saddens me that everything has to be filmed because of situations like this. Why can't people just not lie about serious things like this?

Public spaces and during interactions between law enforcement and non-law enforcement.

Completely agree. This case should have been solved through a regular investigation, not officers being dependant on cameras (that actually help push the idea of them being guilty of everything they are accused of). The case also shows how fast we human turn into the "lynch mob" mentality based on nothing but someone's story. 

As someone who has seen justice served for myself only thanks to public cameras I would like to see them expanded.

Regular investigation? There was a regular investigation and the camera footage cracked the case wide open! A camera does not lie.

Words or text on a webpage will always be less effective than actual camera footage. Every time! People are too visually oriented to trust anything else to a greater degree.

There is no greater weapon against falsehoods than the most trustworthy witness.
