Video footage that Victoria Police want scrubbed from the internet has been viewed more than half a million times in less than 24 hours.

Last week police came knocking at my home, delivering me a threat that if I don’t take down a news video that I recently published, I could face two years in prison.

The letter, signed by Acting Detective Sergeant Adam Moore of the Victoria Police Crime Squad, didn't mince its words. Read the full letter for yourself.

I published the video yesterday despite the threat because it is important to show that we will not be bullied into silence when there's so much at stake.

The video shows footage the police don't want you to see. Bodycam footage depicting shocking conduct by Victoria Police officers.

If their objective was to silence me and make sure the footage was hidden from the public, they've failed miserably with the video widely shared across social media.

Doing real reporting from the front lines often puts me in a position that makes capturing and telling the truth a difficult task most journalists in the mainstream media don't dare (or care) to do.

🚨Police made a silly mistake thinking a THREAT of jail would scare me into removing a video.

Help me make their plan backfire.

WATCH & RT the footage of Police misconduct they don’t want you to see.

Then help me fight back!

But I'm no stranger to threats and intimidation and I'm already suing Victoria Police Command for their conduct.

What's concerning now is the threat of jail time if I refuse to comply with their orders.

But I'm not backing down.

This really is an ongoing David vs Goliath battle, and I'd have no chance against the full resources of Victoria Police if it weren't for your help.
