Judge may drop suit by man who taped beating
A U S district judge tentatively dismissed a $100 million copyright and fraud suit by Holliday the man who videotaped the 1991 police beating of motorist Cam King ruling four grounds including First Amendment public airing. The case against CNN NBC CBS and ABC was to be argued further to make the ruling permanent. Holliday taped the beating after waking to a helicopter and his tape prompted a probe into LAPD brutality and riots with officers later convicted of civil rights violations.
