During the search, Jensen apparently found 6.8 grams of what was believed to be heroin, a .357 Magnum, a pill bottle with amphetamine residue and $43 in singles. The problem is that Jensen allegedly admitted that his on-camera search wasn't the real McCoy to deputy district attorney Anne Mayer via text messages obtained by the Chieftain.

"You'll have to watch your body cam before the motions to make sure the report and camera are the same," Mayer instructed.

"For the search, the body cam shows different than the report because it was. Prior to turning my body cam on I conducted the search. Once I found the [expletive], I stepped back, called [officer], then activated my body cam and walked the courts through it," Jensen replied.

Mayer told Jensen that he needed to write a supplement to his police report indicating that the body cam was powered down during the original search, and that what was recorded was actually a recreation.

Cajar was facing felony charges for possession with intent to manufacture or distribute a controlled substance, possession of a controlled substance, possession of a weapon by a previous offender and special offender. Now those charges have been dropped and Jensen may face disciplinary measures for his actions.

There have been instances where the veracity of body-cam footage has been called into question before, but this may be the first time alterations have come to light and resulted in charges being dropped.
