I was using it to mean “not any more reliable than a statement from any person I don’t intrinsically trust” - but I see your point and accept your correction if such is the case.
Police testimony means nothing to me without some form of corroboration, and if it’s their description of how or why they killed someone, that corroboration should be video or very convincing non-police witnesses.
If I’m ever on a jury for a case that relies on police testimony as its lynchpin, I’ll hang it single handedly if I have to. Show me some evidence.
Yep. Police testimony without video corroboration carries no weight for me. Fight me. (not you personally)
Edit: Removed the word “hearsay” because I was using it wrong.

I thought hearsay is anything that is not testimony. So video is technically hearsay
