DARRIEN HUNT MURDER INVESTIGATION ARGUMENTS
ISSUE #5 – Where’s the Surveillance Video?? Anything substantiating what the police allegedly said happened that day, mysteriously vanished. Obviously, if there was footage proving their claims – then it would have been exposed to the public immediately!
1. Cyprus Credit Union exterior camera footage is missing. The day of Darrien’s murder there was what appeared to be a camera mounted on the northeast corner of the building which would have caught the initial altercation between the officers and Darrien, yet within 3 days the camera disappeared. It was no longer mounted on the exterior wall of Cyprus Credit Union and the space was patched up beautifully as if there was never anything there. Oddly enough, it reappeared two months later after the initial investigation had been completed by Utah County Attorney’s Office. There should be multiple camera angles from the bank; however we only received footage from ONE ATM camera from the police that recorded a different area. Management from Cyprus Credit Union stated that they turned over ALL camera footage to the police; but also stated they don’t have many surveillance cameras due to being such a small branch. Either way, (if that is true), and they turned over ALL of the cameras to the police, that would imply more than ONE camera and ANY BANK would have, at least, ONE exterior camera for security. Panda Express – for example - has 6 cameras that we know of, so it seems absurd that the police would expect us to believe there was only ONE video turned over to them from Cyprus Credit Union. If the footage proves Darrien swung the sword and attacked the officers then why remove the camera? Where is ALL the videotape?

2. We are not the only ones that recognize that there is other video footage from Cyprus Credit Union that the police have in their possession. We have been contacted by multiple citizens stating that they are aware of footage from the bank that has never been released to us or the media. We were informed by one particular individual that “police investigators DO still have in their possession exterior security footage from the Cyprus Credit Union.” Also stated that they, “Asked on Tuesday whether the drive-through forecourt where Hunt and the officers had their first encounter was covered by surveillance cameras, Jessica Taylor, a spokeswoman for Cyprus, said in an email: “Yes. The credit union has external security cameras on our branch in Saratoga Springs.”… “We provided footage from our outdoor camera to the authorities for the times requested,” said Taylor. “Cyprus is cooperating with all requests from the authorities.” How is it then that all we received from Utah County Attorney’s Office was a single view from the ATM? We also received this message as well “according to the official Utah County Attorney's summary report, "surveillance recordings were taken from the Top Stop (Chevron gas station), Panda Express, and Cyprus Credit Union." Yet to date, only the Top Stop and Panda Express videos were made publicly available. I believe the credit union video potentially could be a crucial piece of missing evidence. Otherwise the only available eyewitness photo with police and your nephew has him calm and smiling.” (see attached statement posts)
3. In the Wal-Mart videos we obtained, you cannot see any footage regarding the incident between Darrien and the officers that morning. It’s been argued by the police that Darrien was running towards a crowd of people, however you can clearly see in the Panda Express video of him running for his life, and in the Wal-Mart video surveillance that there was not a crowd of people anywhere to be seen! (See attached video surveillance pics) Also, Included with the pictures are insets of other Wal-Mart angles that surprisingly are much more clear taken at the same time. We simply find it interesting that the only camera angles that would show anything are so out of focus.
4. There are 2 additional cameras on the West side of Panda Express that, at least one of them would have captured the initial stop and altercation between Darrien and the officers. This would have potentially shown shots fired at Darrien, while he was being chased down and running for his life. We NEVER received the video surveillance footage from these cameras either. WHY?? If this video or any other video proves Darrien was a threat, and Schauerhamer, Judson and the Citizens of Saratoga Springs were in ANY danger – Why would they not want us or the public to see them?? (see pic of Panda Express cameras – taken during the investigation)
Please look for and share (on any social media) our posts in order to create more awareness and dispel any error in judgment regarding Darrien’s death as we work towards justice.
The surveillance footage from where the shooting took place - last seen in police custody - has since disappeared.
