“Behind Closed Doors: Officers, Eviction, and Ethics on Camera”

In this lecture, we examine bodycam footage that captures a shocking incident involving police officers during an eviction in Tyler, Texas. What begins as a routine eviction takes a controversial turn when officers are seen handling and seizing personal items from the property. This video raises critical questions about law enforcement ethics, public trust, and the misuse of authority. We’ll explore the relevant Texas laws, including Theft by a Public Servant and Official Oppression, and discuss how these apply to the events shown.
