WIRETAPPING??!! I thought wiretapping required premeditation and intent. Unless they can prove he used a helmet cam to trick a cop - out of uniform and in an unmarked car) into pulling a gun on him I doubt they have a charge.

Here in Utah if he had shot the cop he probably would have gotten off with self defense. A random stranger pulls a gun on you and orders you to do what he says, and he's not in uniform? Even an unmarked car is required to be displaying flashing lights when involved in an arrest.
