One day, when she takes up Jennings shift so that he could go home early, she ended up patrolling with Deacon Brown, played by James Moses Black. During their shift, Deacon heads into a dilapidated building after getting a call and asked Alicia to wait in the patrol car. When she heard gunshots, Alicia put on her bulletproof jacket and headed into the building where she saw Deacon and two other policemen shoot three unarmed drug dealers. When they saw that Alicia’s bulletproof jacket’s camera had recorded everything, they try to get rid of her. Alicia takes help of her friend Milo to survive. The film follows Alicia and Milo as they try to save their lives and upload the camera footage in the police server.

What’s Not There?
