Looks to me like they were showing the potential candidate that usually a SWAT type entry is unmerited, that they want an Andy Griffith type chief.


Seems like $9k is a lot to spend on a recruitment video.

No cost is too high when spending OPM (Other People's Money).

They could have saved some money and just bought a Super Troopers DVD. Seems about the same.

If Paul (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0120201/)Verhoeven (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0093870/) made low budget recruiting videos, they'd look like this.

in reality the news report would read

"Granny killed by botched SWAT raid which mistook movie scene for actual gunshots.
Officers acted accordingly and force was justified."
