The reason for doing so would be her previous experience with the frequency illegal stops.

I'm sure she understood the stop COULD have been perfectly legal but, in case it were not,
filming would be useful if questions were raised later about police handling of the event. 

I would never think to do that, but I am not a NY attorney constantly dealing with Police misconduct
as part of my job, e.g., people stopped and frisked everyday according to "profiles." 

I don't have the numbers in front of me, but I'm pretty sure that I read that violent crime went down under 'stop and frisk', and rose sharply once it was not in effect.  Are you able to confirm?
