Cross examinations we can only dream of

Oh my, Christmas in July (or September):

LAKELAND, Fla. - It's game over for some police officers who played video games while they raided a convicted drug dealer's    home in central Florida.

Surveillance video obtained by WFLA in Tampa caught the officers playing a Nintendo Wii bowling game, with one furiously jumping up and down in celebration. ...

Officers with the anti-drug task force had just stormed into the home of the convicted drug dealer, who was already in custody. One Polk County sheriff's detective can be seen taking several breaks from cataloguing evidence so she can bowl frames.

The officers did not know a video camera had been set up in the house before the March raid.

YES, YOUR HONOUR, CONTINUITY WILL BE AN ISSUE.

Thanks to Sean Ellacott B.A. LL.B for this!!!
