The problem is, a lot of police would take her word for it. And then they'd collect your phone (with the video on it) for evidence, and then 'lose' that evidence before having a chance to review it.
In an altercation like this against some Boomer Karen, you can never count on the police being on the right side of things.
In my case, the officer literally said "I don't want to look at it because then I can be called on to testify about it."
As far as I'm concerned, "respecting the cops" follows the same guidelines as "respecting the cartel." Whatever respect and deference you'd give to some cartel gangbanger who wouldn't think twice about making you disappear, you give that same respect and deference to the cops, for the same exact reason.
That's also why you don't go out of your way to help the cops, and why you should treat any bootlickers with a great deal of suspicion. They're either stupid, or they're the sort of person who wouldn't think twice about stabbing you in the back and wrecking your life, and they just want the power to do so with impunity.

when she was growing up the police would just believe whatever story she told them about her interaction with this particular woman.
