Editing Frameup (section)

===In police operations===
A frameup where a police officer shoots an unarmed suspect and then places a weapon near the body is a form of [[police misconduct]] known as a "throw down". This is used to justify the shooting by making it appear that the officer fired in self-defence or to defend other bystanders.<ref>{{cite web|url= http://openjurist.org/689/f2d/1220/webster-v-city-of-houston |title= 689 F. 2d 1220 - Webster v.
