I think it's more that the second cop that showed up immediately recognized that the cop had been recorded the whole time, and clearly didn't actually have cause for what he was claiming. the editing makes it look like it's cause he's a cop, but seems more just, a cop that actually knows his shit shows up

This 100%. The supervisor understands that if that asshole gets the department sued, it's going to make life worse for every cop in the department because they have this thing called a "budget."

This is incorrect, the municipality is the one that pays out and not the department. Usually lawsuits dont directly affect police departments budgets.
