Read the transcript of this episode

Qualified immunity is a legal precedent that has allowed cops to evade accountability for violating civil rights for decades. But recent arguments in front of the federal circuit appeals court by two cop watchers could bring that precedent to an end. PAR examines how the actions taken by police in Lakeland, Colorado, to prevent 1st Amendment activists Liberty Freak and Eric Brandt from filming a seemingly routine traffic stop could could lead to a legal showdown that might make it easier to hold police accountable. Please join journalists Taya Graham and Stephen Janis for this important episode of the Police Accountability Report!
