@MediaLawProf I hope some intrepid lawyers are watching this and considering a lawsuit, and that an intrepid federal prosecutor is considering a civil rights case.

Nice thing about a lawsuit is the burden of proof is lower than in a criminal case and the allowed discovery broader. And, evidence uncovered in a lawsuit can be used later to bring criminal charges.

The only fix for this police department and city government is to bleed out their budget with a massive lawsuit. It's the only way to get their attention.
