Fake as fuck. Cop’s holsters have locks that require more interaction than a plastic Dino grabber can provide.
Like not just cops' but arent most holsters with saftey features built to be difficult for anyone but the wearer to access smoothly?
I'm not an enthusiast or anything and could be wrong, just an impression I've gotten over the years.
A duty holster will have a retention lock of some kind, usually a thumblock or button. Thats what you'd expect a uniformed patrol officer to use on a belt kit. A detective or some other LEO that wears more business casual clothes or formal clothes will more likely to have a holster without a retention, but they aren't normally making traffic stops.
Not really worth a deep dive since the story is made up in the first place.
