Mosby said her office also has dropped charges in more than 40 additional criminal cases that relied on the testimony of the officers in the first video, and is reviewing over 50 more. The Baltimore State's Attorney's Office dropped drug charges against two men and a woman who had been charged in connection with the videos. The videos in both cases were submitted to the court as evidence, landing in the lap of public defenders through the discovery process without any acknowledgment or notice from police that they were anything other than real-time recordings of the discovery of drugs. Later, after turning their cameras back on, an officer leans into the vehicle and almost immediately pulls out a bag of alleged drugs. In those videos, also under investigation, multiple officers are seen searching a car without finding drugs before turning off their cameras without explanation.
