"A total of five drug cases involving eight San Francisco police officers have been dismissed due to allegations of police misconduct, some of which was apparently caught on surveillance video, authorities said today.San Francisco Public Defender Jeff Adachi this afternoon released a fourth video of a case that allegedly shows discrepancies between the footage and what was written on police reports and said in court testimony by officers.\"It's a case of police, lies and videotape,\" Adachi said.That fourth case was dismissed by the district attorney's office on Dec. 22. A fifth case involving officers from the prior incidents was dismissed today by prosecutors, Adachi said.Video from two initial cases was released to the media by Adachi last Wednesday and appeared to show police misconduct in two incidents in December and January at the Henry Hotel, a South of Market residential hotel.A third video surfaced from the public defender's office on Thursday, which appears to show plainclothes officers kicking in a door at the home of a disabled man on New Year's Eve at Hotel Royan, a residential hotel at 405 Valencia St. in the city's Mission District.The video released today was the third to come from the Henry Hotel, located at Sixth and Mission streets, and occurred on Dec. 2, said Scott Sugarman, a private attorney who represented a man arrested in the case.According to a police report, the man was seen by police Officer Buhagiar wearing a white and tan jacket as he entered the hotel."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
