"Cuomo said victims who interact with police are too often the focus of attention.

“Why do that? Because you wanna make the problem them,” he said. “Takes the onus off the idea that you’re wrong about policing needing to change.”"

I'm not saying police reform of some type is not needed, I'm saying if you are the criminal the story is going to focus on you. You decided to become a victim when you chose to break the law, be in the wrong place at the wrong time, act suspicious, not obey an order from a cop, etc. 

Of course, we know the criminal/victim will be shown as innocent by the media so the cop can be the bad guy.
