Nearly An Hour Of Body Cam Footage Is MISSING #truecrimeshorts #truecrimestories #crimejunkies | Forensic Files

There's nearly an hour missing from the deputy's body cam footage. And that missing time might actually be even
longer. Deputy Trey Binham's body cam captures the ATV chase of 15-year-old Trip Brazil before he was discovered
dead. I watched this footage, and you can watch it for yourself, too, in our episode on this case. Trip's
four-wheeler stops working after it crashes into the ground, and then he jumps off of it and runs into the woods.
That's at 12:42. Then at 12:51 a.m., the body cam footage of Trey Binham is manually shut off. Like, you can
literally see his hand reach up and turn it off. Then nothing until 1:40 a.m. when the body cam suddenly turns back
on. And when it does, Binham is wearing latex gloves. And this alone raises all the questions. But what complicates this
missing time even further is that the pursuit happened on the night that daylight savings time ended. Meaning at
2 am the clock rolled back to 1:00 a.m. So that 49minute gap might actually be an hour and 49 minutes. What do you
think happened during that missing time?

Deputy Trey Bynum's body camera captures the ATV pursuit involving 15-year-old Tripp Brazeale. But after Tripp runs into the woods, the footage stops.

The camera is manually turned off at 12:51 a.m. and doesn't resume until 1:40 a.m. When it comes back on, Bynum is wearing latex gloves.

Adding another layer to the timeline, the pursuit happened on the night daylight saving time ended, meaning the clock rolled back from 2:00 a.m. to 1:00 a.m.

Could that affect how some of the events line up?
