Go ahead call the cops Footage recorded May 24 in Austin, Texas Two officers sitting in their car see a woman walk by One yells out: 'Go ahead, call the cops - they can't unrape you' The video was found by a lawyer who was investigating a car accident the officers had attending Austin Police Department are now investigating the officers and whether they have had contact with 'victims of sexual assault' An internal investigation has been launched at Austin Police Department after two officers were recorded on a dashboard camera video joking about raping a woman. In the video - taken on May 24 - the officers can be heard discussing their day and a car accident they had just attended. When a woman walks near the car, one officer points her out to the other, who blows his whistle and yells: 'Go ahead, call the cops - they can't unrape you.' It's unclear whether the woman heard the call. Caught on camera: Two police officers in Austin are being investigated by their department after their dash cam recorded a conversation between them discussing rape However the first officer then remarks that the second officer had left his camera on. Seemingly wanting to distance himself from the disturbing conversation, the first officer asks the second: 'Are you insinuating something? Are you done? The second then appears to storm out of the car. The video was happened upon by a lawyer who was handling the car accident the two officers had been discussing. Austin Police Department have since confirmed the video is authentic and released a statement saying they were investigating the two officers. The Austin Police Department has validated the video/audio publicly released pursuant to the Texas Open Records Act,' the statement, released to Raw Story, said. The officers in the video/audio have been identified as Austin Police officers. 'Upon learning of the video's contents, the Department immediately launched an internal investigation. 'The investigation will include a comprehensive audit of the involved officers' contacts with victims of sexual assault to ensure the actions taken during the contacts meet the expectations of the Department, the public and most importantly, the victims. Upon conclusion of the investigation, the Department will take appropriate corrective action. Both officers in the Austin video have been placed on leave pending the outcome of the investigation. The lawyer who found the video, Drew Gibbs, said he was more disturbed by the way the first officer reacted to the 'un-rape' call - by questioning whether the camera was on. 'I would hope that when a police officer observes another officer acting inappropriately, or worse, illegally, that their initial reaction would be to correct that behavior and prevent its reoccurrence,' Gibbs told Raw Story. Instead, it seems that all too often the reaction of many otherwise good police officers is to hide any evidence of misconduct.
