Do police stations have video footage to prove my right to counsel were violated
Derek, the presence of video footage depends on the specific police station's policies and capabilities. Do you know if the station involved in your situation has surveillance cameras?

I'm sorry, but as a free legal information service, I'm unable to search for specific records or surveillance footage. I suggest contacting the police station directly or consult with a local attorney for further assistance.
