In May, a marijuana dispensary in Santa Ana, California, called Sky High Holistic was raided by the police, who claimed it did not have a valid permit.
It started off like a standard raid the police banged on the door, ordered customers onto the floor, and proceeded to sniff around.
Then police started to dismantle the security cameras which was caught on tape by one of the cameras they missed.
The footage goes on to show the officers chumming around, playing darts, and snacking on edibles, before making some unsavory remarks about the dispensary manager, Marla James, who is an amputee.
In one exchange, an officer asks, "Did you punch that one-legged guerita?" and another replies, "I was about to kick her in her f------ nub."

Now the cops are suing to keep the video out of evidence.
