Police video altered?

Sherry Williams, of CBS Houston affiliate KHOU-TV, reports multiple breaks and jumps appear in the video.
Trump flip-flops

Police report "buzzwords"
The high profile trials of Manuel Noriega, Timothy McVeigh, OJ Simpson and George Zimmerman are among the important legal stories Kim Segal covered as a journalist for more than two decades. She left her television career for a position as a Public Defender in Broward County, Florida. Here are some of her observations: As a new Public Defender -- I started in September 2014 -- I often find myself thinking, if I ever return to journalism I will never again read a police report as naively as I used to. After reading hundreds of police reports, or as we call them, "probable cause affidavits," you notice each crime has "buzz words" that are used by law enforcement to make sure the arrest sticks.
