Courthouse

I'm Detective Dave, a retired New York Detective with over 20 years in law enforcement and a former SWAT operator. I've worked patrol, investigations, and just about every high-pressure situation the job can throw at you. On Courthouse, I break down real bodycam footage with the eyes of someone who has actually done it. I'll walk you through what's happening in the moment, what the officers might be seeing, and why certain decisions get made. Suspect behavior, body language, tone, communication, de-escalation, compliance, use-of-force. All of it. I'm not here to overcomplicate things or pretend every situation is black and white. These breakdowns are for education and analysis, not to judge or pile on anyone involved. Everyone featured is presumed innocent, and my commentary is opinion based on experience, not legal advice or the official word of any agency. Got a video or situation you want me to break down?
