Courtesy of Jonathon Turley comes today's edition of But For Video!

My personal favorite part is when Cookeville, Tennessee Police Officer Carlos Ferell, as he's reaching in his pocket for a little weed to plant on the perp, turns toward the dash camera and mugs for the camera.  He just looks so darn cute when he does that, dontcha think?

Also of note before watching this video is the hand gesture used by the other officer to cue Ferell to plant the grass on the guy.  A group of cops who work together tend to develop little secret codes and gestures for doing things that "need to get done."  For example, they will have a secret word to alert the other officers of a person who has a concealed weapon, so as not to alert the perp that they know he's armed and prod him into using the weapon.

Here, however, they have a hand signal to plant drugs on the perp.  If they've got that set up in advance, then you have to assume this isn't the very first and only time it's ever happened.  "But Judge, Police Officer Ferell has a distinguished career of serving the community faithfully, and has never been caught planting drugs on a defendant before."  It makes me wonder what the hand signal for "beat the living daylights out of this mutt" might be.

So get the popcorn out, call the kids and enjoy the show.
