on October 28th 2023 a Bluefield Police Department Officer witnessed Yolanda Elliott allegedly running a red traffic signal while driving a bus the officer prompted by this initiated a traffic stop the situation quickly escalated leading to a recorded exchange on the officer's body [Music] cam did you just run the stop sign I mean stop light no it was green sir it was it was red no sir my light was green cuz I pulled out right behind my bus yeah well it was red because because when we was getting ready to turn our light was green and we had to wait on your bus to get out the middle of the road to go through it oh someone need your licens and the information to this bus bus please I see your hand go up and I was like yeah it was completely red what in the world yeah like the car in front of me tried to go but they had to wait on you to get out of the middle of intersection cuz our light was green that's why SE we the bus might have been running it too one in front of it been yellow my you're have to bear with me okay here it is but yeah my light is green that's why I never run a red light specially right there I mean it wasn't green that's thing I mean if it was green on the bridge but when you went under it it was completely red because it was it was our light was green which means your light was red for a good 5 seconds because we had to wait on you to get out of the middle intersection before our our bus I was pay I'm so sorry because I I mean the light turned green CU we stopped at the red light it was green I mean it was red when we were sitting there at the red light yeah I had to stop and then the light turned green and that's why we all went according to the relevant protocol in West Virginia it is not right for the officer to argue and debate with the other person on the contrary all he or she has to do is to do his or her job as far as the law permits him or her to do so and to end the situation without prolonging it throughout the interview Miss Elliot insists that she crossed the intersection when the light was was green the officer however insists that the light was red or at least yellow when she proceeded give me look at me real quick look out that way kind of like look out like this way no right here see that yellow mon sign look right there 215 or 216 212 ride down here real [Music] quick her pupils are really really super small should go back on a y Yolanda Elliott I mean they think they're Exempted from getting pulled over but I mean obviously her light was completely green which means her light was red and she went through the middle intersection we had to wait on her to get out of the intersection before line could even move your OT subject is license 2 point it's your call control control he is 16 from Bluefield hey hey can I um talk to our dispatcher please yeah hang on just take thank you hello say green over blue how are you I'm good are good hey can you can you run a triple on that Yolanda Elliot for me please see if it's got anything on her driving wise 10 do you want her to give it back to you over the phone or do you want her to yes give it to you over the radio just over the phone all right hey just go up there and be like hey did you did he get your uh insurance card and registration card and look at her eyes I know she had sunglasses I walked up there yeah yeah she she just now put them on she didn't have sunglasses on a minute again I told her to take them off I mean they they look more constricted than mine yeah that's when I looked at his I made him look the same direction she was looking and his his are about a half a size almost to a whole size bigger than hers is or hers was she's got a speeding ticket what' you stop it before she ran a [ __ ] red I mean a yeah a red light we was sitting there and uh there's a car in front of me and then right before uh I mean our light turned green and we couldn't pull out because she was coming through the middle of intersection I just W that he like [ __ ] I just walked H that prob Got Drugs on they probably got dope on him I me me f BR on her I mean cuz she didn't have her sunglasses on until you pulled up and and The Sun Ain't Even out right here it's and uh yeah her her peoples are more constricted than his were his was look up a yoland y Elliot Cisco we have green hey she's got a lot of things on there but nothing for traffic all right so no DUI or nothing like that any drug uhuh uhuh okay all righty I appreciate it no problem all right bye bye she's got a long history nothing do everybody's I just ordered my food from McDonald's too walk down again now like the officer misrepresents the situation to arriving backup possibly to avoid scrutiny Mrs Elliot initially wearing sunglasses removes them to inspect her documents however the officer falsely alleges she just put them on to conceal her eyes This falls under police misconduct defined by the US Department of Justice as a wrongdoing by an officer which can be a criminal act or a violation of departmental policies any so he'll be walking for a little while hey she gets out on this side she gets out on this side be copy ell come here and talk to me for a minute won you turn place this way for me away from okay all right um do you take any kind of medication whatsoever I do what you take well I want you to be honest with me okay when I ask you during the day I don't take nothing okay at night time I take Ambien and I take peret okay so how long ago since it was since you took the perets be honest with you I'm trying to think I took it about 8:30 last night 8:30 last night yeah I'm not worried about anything y'all can do I mean y y'all need to do or anything like that well this this is issue I'm having is when I come up and talk to you people are are really really constricted I didn't sleep good last night well I'm going be honest with you sleep has nothing to do with your people okay okay people don't need to disclose prescriptions to law enforcement protected by the 14th amendment's privacy rights the officer's push for complete honesty May violate Mrs is Elliot's 14th Amendment rights ensuring citizens privileges due process and equal protection under the law furthermore the officer's suggestion about pupil size and sleep deprivation may be a form of gaslighting Bluefield Police Department officers aren't certified medical experts on this matter pupil size May shrink due to fatigue with larger sizes reflecting tired muscles and a fading ability to keep the pupil open um so um what I feel like we should do um to cause less trouble for the people on the bus probably should call somebody to let them uh let them come get the people off the bus real quick because I'm going to run you through Phil SB test okay okay and then we're going to go from there you want me to call my boss call somebody let let them know you got a bus out here and you you got stopped by well what what about this bus right here he got to go he's running another bus so let me call my BS make it make it pretty quick so we can get on the road with these tests okay okay to take you tell my it's just going to take just a little

inside of that lunch bag yeah what kind of medications in there I got my uh B toil and my you care if I take a look in it here in just a minute okay all right in the footage the officer casually asks Mrs Elliot if she would allow a search of her lunch bag beneath this seemingly simple request lies the officer's attempt to turn an unfounded suspicion into potential probable cause for an arrest it's crucial to know your rights to prevent officers from violating your Fourth Amendment rights the fourth amendment protects the right of people to be secure in their persons houses papers and effects against unreasonable searches and seizures requiring a warrant based on probable cause let's walk up here on this line for me okay okay all right you going be able to do F to in those boots whatever

like I used to I haden't done in a long time but I used to well just watch tip that for me okay the officer administers the Romberg balance test assessing swaying Tremors muscle tone statements and the ability to follow instructions notably this test lacks standardization by the national highway Transportation safety administration making it susceptible to challenges by a qualified DUI lawyer in court all right one more time okay all right next thing I'm going have you do okay um is just another balance test all right well first off I guess we can do it right here it's PR the uh modified rberg yeah we'll do it right here we'll do the other test down there all right so what I want you to do take your hands out your pockets put your feet together for me all right when I tell you to begin all right I'm going to tell you to touch your head back you're going to touch your head all the way back okay okay um when you touch your head back you're going to close your eyes when you close your eyes I'm going to tell you to begin all right when I tell you to begin I want you to estimate the passage of 30 seconds in your head all right once you once you get to 30 seconds in your head you're going to tilt your head back down and say stop all right and that's going to be into that part of that test okay okay let me get it say this y I'm going to tilt my head back count assume 30 seconds til my head back close my eyes assume 30 seconds then set my head back up open my eyes and say stop yep right yeah okay all right so go ahead and tilt your head back and close your eyes yep you go take your sunglasses off tilt your head back and close your eyes for me okay all the way back goad again stop all right how long was that I say 30 seconds you say 30 seconds all right how'd you get the 30 I counted how'd you count one two three okay all right cool good deal 37 seconds no you you're good you're fine was that I mean was all right on it well not right on it but yeah not right on it but just to be no all despite Mrs Elliott clearly passing the first two tests the officer criticizes her for counting 37 seconds instead of 30 a understand understandable mistake undeterred the officer decides to escalate the situation by having her take another test the finger to nose test during this test the officer looks for Clues indicating intoxication such as inability to follow instructions swaying eyelid or body Tremors speaking during the test and failing to touch the finger to the nose exhibiting several of these Clues could lead to an arrest thing have you do is called the finger and nose test okay like I said you going keep you feet together I heard about this one there you go well what you know about it kind of sorted like that you ain't going to put your arms out like an airplane though all right but I want don't you to do I want you to make a fist and turn your palms towards me down just like this there you go left hand right hand right hand left hand seven eight fix arms up hold on to this p1234 10056 17890 100123 2014 20156 17 1789 1220 okay 20 seconds I he 30 all right you walk over here with me real quick okay so what are you going to have in this bag you got any of your medications in here you care if my officer takes a look in there oh I don't care I mean I've got a bunch of junk in here all right well just lay just lay at to the side and he'll go through it okay okay just lay it this side for me I'm about toze all right so you said the last time you took the the the per sets was it 830 last night yeah you don't know when last night though yeah it was like about 8:30 last night before I went to bed Mrs Elliot faced challenges with the final two assessments especially the one- leg stand test under a less overbearing officer her difficulties could be considered reasonable given her age and disclosed sleep deprivation completing four out of six sobriety tests suggests sobriety however the officer had other plans what time did you go to bed it was about 8:30 what time how long I didn't go to sleep uh I was still awake at about you took the Ambi and didn't go to sleep no I didn't go to sleep last night I just couldn't go to sleep I was TOs and turning did you take any of it this morning no no I didn't take nothing this morning I had you don't care if I look no I don't care want you do me me a favor and just sit right here on this curb right here for me okay hey I'm going to come get you in a minute I need you to uh cff um man yeah yeah um she is possibly going to jail for DUI really yeah so she takes ambum and perets and she said she took the perets last night she said I she told me 8:30 first then she said that she couldn't Bally she was like around late last night so um I'll talk to my sergeant I'll see what he wants to do we're uh we're pretty short staff today so um she uh there might be a chance that she gets to go home today uh there's a good chance that she might go home today and she'll have a warrant for DUI um but I'm going to see if she'll go do a uh a blood draw at the uh at the hospital okay we'll get her blood and then uh we'll have that sent off to state police crime lab you going placed under arrest for the DUI okay do what yes ma'am the confidentiality of medical records is a privacy Cornerstone with West Virginia law restricting access without explicit permission the officer breached this by revealing Mrs Elliot's medication details violating her rights secondly the officer manipulated the truth by informing Mrs Elliot's employer of alleged dishonesty about medication timing constituting police misconduct with potential serious consequences for her personal and professional life so I'm going to give you an option um we can go to the uh the hospital and we can have a blood draw you can consent to a blood draw Y and we'll go ahead and do that I can do that okay all right Co problem all right I appreciate it yeah listen to me you cannot you have a job to drive people around for a living right you cannot take perets and Ambi them and drive then why did the doctor put it on my CD the doctors do that I don't know why they do that it's not legal for you to drive they should tell you time you should not drive period once you've taken that medication it takes a while for that medication to come out of your come out of your system yeah cuz I just had my CDL done last month did you do a drug test then yeah I mean I I can show you my CDL I have nothing to hide from y'all I mean I've never done WR come up on the drug test where'd you do the test that dror uh John where did I do my CDL CDL what his name uh Princeton CDL what I we doct drug test physical does she do a drug test ner okay he he done all of it and U well you want to take your sunglass off put them in your pocket so they don't drop and he did he did every bit of it and uh everything's listed on my CDL and they had to get my my my family doctor to come back and sign off on it they dropped the ball because you ain't supposed to take it and drive okay go ahead turn around for me good I'm going have to just go and turn around put your hands on you back Mrs Elliot faced a DUI arrest despite a negative blood test the charge was dropped due to lack of evidence but she paid a fine for a traffic violation she lost her job influenced by the officer's comments now she's taking legal action against the Bluefield Police Department for wrongful arrest and plans to sue the city for unjust dismissal no further updates are available as of now on June 28th 2023 Matthew Wilson a business owner was pulled over by a Broomfield Police Department Officer for expired tags despite complying with the initial request the officer later asked him to step out alleging narcotics possession Mr Wilson feeling racially Pro filed refused backup was called and the encounter was recorded on Mr Wilson's phone and the officer's body cam okay uh these officers are pulling me over they said it was a tag now they're saying that I have drugs I have no drugs I'm a business owner I'm late to pick up my wife now they're trying to tell me that I have to step out I haven't committed a crime this is Matthew Wilson uh CEO of addictive culture entertainment I'm going to pick up my wife I got pulled over cited by these officers saying my tag now they're pulling me over talking about they want me to get out no crime has been committed and they have Reasonable articulable Suspicion by constitutional law that I have to have in my car and they are therefore allowed to do a search on my car now I've told you that I have no in the car I've told you that I'm not getting out the car because I know know the law I haven't committed a crime if you want to violate my rights further I promise you you're going to be famous and I'll tell you right now I don't normally do this but we have some detectives that were following you and yeah and they think where they follow where they follow me from tell me well I don't have that information but I travel this road every day my wife is a doctor in Boulder MH they want you out of the car and we want to do a stiff on the car with you I'm I'm not you don't have call your supervisor okay I'll get the I'll get are you going to violate my violate my rights I just told you call you supervisor I'm late picking up my wife bro and I can go I can get information from other officers that tell me they have probable cause to do a sniff on your car because I'm a black man in a beamer I had no idea you were a black man until I sto CU I'm a black man in a beamer did not know with attended windows I don't care about whoever your uh supposed um detectives are that follow me man I travel this road daily back and forth multiple times my wife works in Boulder if you violate my rights I'm going to make a case against you and I'm going to win okay you're profiling me because I'm black has nothing to do with that you're profiling me because I'm black bro you just happen to be black and I just happen to be no you just happen to not be the first officer of white descent to call me a because I'm in a beamer my family is Rich my family is Rich I don't have to sell we own construction company restaurants entertainment businesses houses real estate and all type I don't have to sell bro lot of people that sell get rich and then they have these other shell companies that uh are shell compan profiling me are you going to violate my rights I asked you to call your supervisor okay we're working on that the officer initially Justified the traffic stop by claiming Mr Wilson was being followed by drug detectives who relayed information however the actual reason for the Stop was a license plate violation when Mr Wilson resisted having his rights violated the officer fabricated a drug story in Colorado traffic stops require Reasonable Suspicion not probable cause although the expired tags justifi the initial stop it doesn't permit the officer to violate rights by forcing Mr Wilson to step out and search his vehicle I've asked him to call his supervisor everybody you want to go back and say wants my supervisor I don't I've already told him I have no in the car watch this if you have no a dog slipping it will be you can bring your dog bro you can bring your dog all you want you're going to look stupid as I promise you and I'm ass Sue I don't have to sell bro my family Rich than I ain't got to sell nothing I'm set for life you about to find out watch gra pull me over for a tag they said it was a tag now they're saying I'm a detectives were following me me sir as supervisor is on the way to talk to you okay but I do need you to exit the vehicle now I haven't committed a PR not getting out the car you're not going to violate my rights I know the rights I got law we got lots of lawyers I appreciate that too but by I didn't even have to give my information and I cooperated if I was a dealer why didn't I run okay if I was a dealer why did I give my I know the law I don't even have to give him my information because I haven't committed a crime bro okay you operating vehicle with an expired registration that's not a crime bro you a civil court you have to give us your license for that sir we're ask nically speaking we have the right Supreme Court has already decided we can also see to get out of the vehicle you choose to not get out of the vehicle as a criminal advance in itself and we don't want to go that area go that route watch this okay so a supervisor is on the way but you need to get out of that vehicle because if you don't we're going to remove you from the vle and you'll be charged with the crime you'll be violating my rights and that's your choice as an American citizen but we don't want to have to get that way so if you get out of the vehicle we don't have to use force and we don't have to hey look I'm going let him search y'all watch this y Mr Wilson cited the Fourth Amendment and another section of the Colorado constitution in challenging possible violations of his rights these articles protect against unreasonable searches and seizures and allow EX exeptions such as a brief investigative stop if an officer reasonably believes that the occupant of the vehicle may be armed and dangerous the Terry stop authorizes a protective search given these legal considerations telling Mr Wilson to get out of his vehicle seemed potentially excessive however to avoid further trouble Mr Wilson agreed to comply with this instruction you check everything in it's it's it's CU I'm Black and I'm in a beamer cuz look at my family riches to find out which way it's nothing about that it's it's because of that right there December 16th of 2022 so if it was a tag you're citing that to me it's a tag this individual told me that detectives detectives were following me bro that might be there people out here doing 90 and a 65 you CH pull me over you cited I know the law bro I got lots of lawyers and lots of money you told me it was a tag but now all of a sudden detectives follow me from where where they where they follow from a house they because I'm black I must have came from the trap it's nothing about RAC I must came from the trap house huh I promise you right now I can promise you right now it's nothing about race it's nothing about that I understand your frustration have

getting find nothing cuz I don't have I'm a the song just do me a favor real quick stay right I get your agitate and I get it I'm going shut up I'm going just shut up all right that's fine that's the officers after having Mr Wilson step out initiated a k9 sniff around the vehicle while Reasonable Suspicion is needed for the police to use a drug sniffing dog the sniff itself is not considered a search if the dog detects illegal drugs it can provide probable cause for illegal search the officers were relying on the K9 to find something suspicious allowing them to conduct a legal search even if the dog didn't signal anything the officers might still claim otherwise to proceed with the search your dog getting hit on my car I know the cop tricks cuz I got a brother that's a cop your cop didn't hit your dog didn't hit on [ __ ] and when you don't find nothing just make sure you show up and say it in court trust me I got you I want to watch him search my vehicle that's my right that's

youself that's you got me there I can't lie the auditor faced three individuals determined to violate his rights and waste his time after supposedly being detained they asked him to leave and ordered him to walk away Sergeant wild accused the auditor of being intoxicated without cause displaying unprofessionalism and maintaining a hostile attitude I guess we're just going to sitay here and do nothing or what no we're waiting on an answer answer yep from the Sheriff's Office once we get an answer from the sheriff office we from there just just I just want to let you know something you can't trespass from the sheriff's department it is public property trans Fun by a tax dollar actually it's not public who funds the sheriff's apartment this isn't the sheriff's doesn't matter operation it's still it's still Texas why does it say Sheriff Department public property it's still funed by tax dollars I could be at the prison and it wouldn't matter it's funded by our tax dollars so I'm going be entain for said you were in prison I said it's like being on a prison property it's still funded by tax dollars yeah that that doesn't mean you can't be on Prison property try it and see what happens try to get in there I've done a lot of things on a prison proper I've exercised my rights on a prison property oh I'm sure you have I don't know abely okay I don't know what you're insinuating but am I being detained for a crime I told you you could believe to leave okay so I'm not detained so you don't said you were detained okay I just want I just want to get that clarified if I'm if I'm not detained then I'm free to stay I just want I no if we're worting on an answer to see if they want you primly trespassed if we do then you're going to be primly trespassed and then you will leave the property if not you can stay here I am by all means you can stand right there too I don't I don't care where you stand watch you see that's not going to be here oh I'm going to tell you something I'm not detained so you don't get my ID the best thing you guys can do for yourself is to go back in your car and leave okay I'm just being I'm just being honest I'm glad you think that I I don't what you think see I'm so glad I do these audits yeah you're doing good I'm very I'm doing a very good job hey you're going to be the star of the show thank you I appreciate that's a compliment I like being the star yeah you say that now star a lot of things I guess your attitude's problem now that's why that's why there's a disconnect yeah I agree yeah so that's why I'm here for to test out to see if you guys respect my rights and you failed miserably thank you you know the put it on my Emil the the other police or you can look up the Complaint Form him and write a complaint too I I might do that do it I might just not today I got I got better things to do me too so I mean you can leave I will whenever I get an answer I would hope the sheriff would respect the Constitution but that doesn't have anything to do with you being criminal trespassed it has a lot to do with it if if I'm not able to exercise my rights on a Sheriff's Department property which is funded by our tax dollars then that is going against the Constitution let me explain something to you okay yeah because who it's funded by doesn't have anything to do with it it's like school property school property is private property if they want you removed from their prop depend on the schools no it public school is private property it's owned by the school district okay and if they want you remove from that you can be removed from that property okay just like the Sheriff's Office it's not public property public property would be like this sidewalk right here on when I drove up you were in their parking lot up there by the office okay so that's and I was never told I was never told to leave either you didn't give us a chance either you took off running N I wasn't detain at the time either no but you but we've gotten to that point now where we're talking to you about it so once we find out then we're go for all right criminally trespass then we'll do that so you guys man so if I'm not detained I'm going go I'm behe I'm going go ahead and and leave okay okay I'm just waiting on you guys to disperse we're not going to we're staying here until we get an answer okay and we don't have to leave either we don't have to tell us to disperse cuz we don't have to we can do however we want to go I guess guess I would like to have the sheriff come out here to confirm your criminal trespass well I'm I'm I'm not going to take your word for it I'm not going to take your word for it man I would rather have a sheriff tell me so I have that right I have that right you know if they tell us to do that then we'll do it okay that's our legal right well we'll see you seem kind of bored I am you know I'd rather be doing with real crime instead of make people like this well you can leave who think they know the law I do know the law I may not know all the laws that I'll give you I that I'll give you but I know enough all right Sheriff said you need to leave the property I am on the sidewalk okay and keep walking I am on the sidewalk this is not their property how about you disperse and when you guys leave I leave how about you can't with running your dumb mouth why you got to be so mean I'm not mean you're just out of yourself you're calling me dumb let's get something I want you to understand something okay if you go back on the property over here the Sheriff property that's the parking lot parking lot their property anywhere around there okay we come back and see you there you'll be arrested and you'll go to jail okay so don't do that sidewalks okay I mean if you want a lawsuit go ahead it's not about whether we want a lawsuit or not it's about it's about you're being criminally trespassed from that man it's a so what if I need so can you walk in there right now right now it's closed exactly that don't mean that means it's not open to the public right now it is a public facility no it's it's private property belongs to the county that makes it private property no yes it does the who funds the county it doesn't matter who pays for it I pay taxes so therefore I fund the county that has nothing to do with whether it's private property or not that's what I'm trying to explain to you about the school Walmart all these people where you go sh all these places are private property the school is funed by public but I have no reason to be at a school I don't test teacher about their rights I test police about their rights that's all that's all I do understand that I understand what you're doing out here and if you know I'm not breaking the law why I just okay you were on private property they wanted you to leave you were suspicious we came to check you out you took off running that's even more suspicious instead of just stopping and talking to me like I wanted you to you decided to to make this a bigger deal than what it is there's nothing wrong with exercising your rights in public we all have our Styles in doing it there's nothing wrong with me doing my job either right I mean there's a way about there's a way about going about doing your job there is you're threatened to arrest me for going back on sh to arrest you you just said if I go on their property then I'll be arrested yes because you are being criminally trespassed from that property which is fed by want you there well how about get the sheriff out here I don't have to get anybody out here for you or a deputy sheriff I don't have to have a deputy out here they told us we have the authority to do it okay it's within the city limits okay whatever you said so I'm just letting you know don't go back on the property okay good okay do you just want to go home now I mean do you want to go back on patrol clearly there's no crime happening public property owned by the government includes Parks streets sidewalks libraries schools and playgrounds accessible to the public the police department parking lot is considered public property officer foram inaccurately defined public property even claiming school property is private which is false while certain areas may be restricted it wasn't the case here eventually the officers realized they should leave but officer hand continued to display unprofessionalism by taunting and threatening to arrest the auditor if he returned to public property clearly there's no crime happening right now I'm sure there is elsewhere well maybe go that you have us caught up with so just understand if you come back on the property you're going to jail you're going to violate my rights I'm going to take you to jail promise you're going to violate my rights I'm going take you to jail I promise you that that's how we going to do it okay okay well you have a good day okay bye byebye don't make it any more difficult than it already is okay just don't go back I've already proven what I need to prove him bro you guys don't respect the Constitution we don't have to wor about I'll be back I I'll be back tomorrow during business hours to confirm that trespass probably won be there on weekend this is a special units okay facility here it's an Annex of the Sheriff's Office okay the actual Sheriff's Office okay so all right I I'll confirm that with the sheriff's department on on Tuesday because it's Memorial's Day okay so all right you have a good day you too all right guys [Applause] so I would test that limit but I don't want to go to jail today so so we're going to go ahead and end it they clearly failed didn't respect my rights and uh that's what it's all [Music] about so mean well I mean I'm going to have to go around so I'm going to get up out of here guys um let's see if they respect our rights why is she so mean bro I know you mean I know I see you they will pull you over if you go to your car I know you know they will pull you over if you go to your car right they will'll follow you they're waiting on you to go to your vehicle so they can run your plates she's already taken a picture I know I [Music] know oh no they just waiting on me to leave [Applause] I mean you ain't got nothing better do [Music] [Applause] the sergeant stayed there for a while longer even after they had finished talking and then the auditor left it is known that the auditor did not initiate any legal proceedings but in this encounter the officer hand in particular failed and showed us once again how tyrannical and corrupt the high-powered police can be
