A representative from one of the local media outlets contacts you and tells you they have another video from a source who came to them rather than the police. They want you to release a copy of the video that the police department has to them and they will give you a copy of the video they have. You can get the video on your own but it will take time to go through the courts and request a warrant to do so.
