Police are often met with all kinds of dangerous people, but what happens when instead they have to face 200 IQ suspects who know the law better than they do. When's the last time you smoked weed? Absolutely zero. So now you're trying to think I smoke weed. That's what's going on. You can't do that, man. You really can't do that. Absolutely I can. Is he allowed to do that? Here's how these corrupt detectives reacted when they were outsmarted by suspects, starting with Police Chief Michael Chikinni. On September 17th, 2022, the chief of police decided to threaten the wrong kids. Chikinni had started harassing these kids for disturbing the peace, but Parker Wayland and Travis Krenn were only playing around, and they were about to show the chief that they knew the law. Disturbing the peace. Both of them squealing their wheels out here. I um you have He's talking. Hey, Travis. Just They come here. They hit the cone. They're messing around here around this new monument. I'd had enough. What the chief did next was illegal, and Travis knew it. Get out of here. I didn't even do nothing. Yeah, you did. What did I do? What did I do? Go. Did you just commit that battery? Get out of here. Disturbing the peace. You hit me cuz of disturbing the peace? Yeah, it's a crime. You need to go. You just committed battery. No. Yes. No, he hit me with the flashlight. That's battery. Get out of here. How is that right? Krenn told his friend to call the police, but Chikinni pulled out his badge and said he was a cop trying to intimidate them, but that didn't work. They knew Chikinni was the one who committed battery, and they refused to leave until the police came. Chikinni claims that his badge allowed him to assault anyone he wanted to, but the teens didn't buy his lies. Battery, right? Mhm. Look at him. Yep, that's right. You called the cops. You just committed battery, right? Chief of Police. Call the cops. That doesn't work that way, dude. Yeah, you're going to tell me the law? What, you think you're some legal scholar on the Supreme Court? No, like what are we doing on here? Please, you can't hit me with a flashlight. You can't disturb the peace. What's the first amendment? me with a flashlight. No, you don't have a right to disturb the peace. You hit me with a flashlight, bro. What are you talking about? You won't believe what Chiquini did next. Assault me. You want me to go? I'll make out with you right now. I swing both ways, bro. Go ahead. Assault me. He ran out of options, so getting the boys to attack him was his next plan. That way, he'd have something to show the police, but the teens knew better than that. I'm not going to touch you. I'm not going to touch you. I know Get out of his face. better, bro. Hey. Can you send a unit down here? I've got three hooligans that need to go. Hooligans? You hit me with a flashlight. Thankfully, they recorded the entire encounter, and when the other officers arrived, the chief was suddenly not so brave. 5 minutes or so of the screeching tires from the birds, you know, and the hooting and hollering down here. So, I go out onto my balcony, and I look down, and they're just uh they're driving, and the guy in the long hair intentionally smashes, drives his scooter into the barricade. And I go, "Hey, cut it out. Cut your shit." So, you go up to your apartment? Um I'm up in my apartment. I forget what he says to me. I can do whatever I want. And I go, "You need to get out of here." Something to that effect. And He hit the barrel or the bar? He hit the barrel right there. The metal barrel. Open the door. Tell them to leave. Get out of here. When I approach, I walk across the little plaza here to the curb area. He walks towards me. And uh the confrontation begins. Did he When he was upstairs, did he tell you that he was going to kick your Something to that, yeah. He He said that, yeah. Chiquini said he was off duty at home when he heard the two boys destroying property. He had told them to leave, but when one of them threatened him, he decided to run downstairs and deal with them himself. But his side of the story was different from what had actually happened. I felt that he was hostile towards me, so I did how I was taught back in the day is a pick floral large muscle mass jam. Right? With your hand? With my flashlight part of my flashlight. What happened then? Uh he got angry obviously and accused me of assaulting him, calling me various names such as bald-headed. Did he know you were a police officer? I did identify myself. Showed him my badge. Prior to this altercation? Um I may have when I was walking up. He challenged me to fight and dared me to come down. Okay? I came down. He stood off on me and I did a pick floral jam with my flashlight. Okay. Okay. Thankfully, the teens could share their side of the story, too, and they told the truth. All right, what's going on? So, we were just riding around on Bird scooters, you know, like teenagers do. And then he came up here. you? I'm 19. Okay. And he hit the cone right here and knocked it over. Middle one? Yeah, and knocked it over and then he started yelling and he threatened him first, so he was defend he was defending himself like against him. How did he threaten him? I don't remember exactly what he said. Okay. But he was he antagonized him, so he was defending himself. Travis was standing right there, didn't say a single word. Right when? Like on the road and he came up and hit him. I don't know if it was like in the chest or the rib cage, but he hit him with the flashlight and then started shining it in his eyes. I was riding, you know how like when you press the brake the back wheel locks up and it makes a squeaking noise, right? Okay. And you can drift when you do kind of fun, right? I get it's kind of late and stuff, right? Right. But he's up there. He goes, "Hey big shot, you want to go?" Right? Cuz I said he said, "Why don't you keep it down?" I said, "I'm not doing nothing wrong." He goes, "Hey big shot, you want to go?" Right? And I stood right here. I said, "What's up?" He walks up to me and like I'm not going to hit you, I promise. He goes like that and jabs me like right here and the red with the flashlight. And then he said he felt threatened. My hands were at my sides. I don't know. I didn't swing at him. And then I didn't pick up. I didn't do anything. What did you do when he walked up? I just stood there. So he had to do the same thing with the flashlight back? Like the rave kid. I'm just saying, bro. Of course, Chikin wanted the two guys to be charged for what happened. I'll cut a supplement. Two charges right here. But instead, he was the one who ended up getting charges. Chikin was charged with assault and battery and is no longer Bay City's public safety director or chief of police. This next officer was determined to charge his suspect for doing nothing wrong. You ready? Yep. Okay, you can relax. Um so I'm going to read you your Miranda, okay? One second. Right now you have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law. On August 28th, 2022, Tayvin Gallanakis was pulled over by police officer Nathan Winters for having his bright lights on. And even though Gallanakis had a perfect excuse for it, the officer didn't care. Hi there. How you doing, sir? Good. How are you? Good. My name's Officer Winters with the Adair Police Department. The reason I pulled you over is cuz you have your bright lights on. Yeah, I have a I have a headlight out, so I just keep my brights on. Okay, well that's not legal. Oh, is it? No. Yeah, I turn them off when a car when a car comes by, I turn them off, but like When you're done with me Oh, you're not close enough, though. You're like you're you're a while Yeah, you're a while back. It has to be within 500 ft. Oh, my bad. I'm sorry. And you're not supposed to have your brights on in the city limits. The officer started questioning procedure and asked for his license and registration, but some of his questions were a little bizarre. You got your license, registration, insurance with you? Yeah, yeah, I got you. Is this your car? Yeah. Okay. Where you headed? Back home. Where's home? Are you new to town or something? No. You don't have anything on you, no bombs, guns, drugs? No bombs or no drugs. Okay, let's go back here. The officer noticed Tayvion's movements in the car and the smell of alcohol on him, so he jumped to the conclusion that he had been drinking. Although Tayvion insisted that he was sober, Officer Winters didn't believe him, so the boy requested a breathalyzer test. How much have you had to drink tonight? None. What do you mean, none? I have had nothing to drink, okay? Why would you Why would your eyes be watery and bloodshot? But Winters didn't want to give him the easy way out. I have had nothing to drink. Okay. So, your movements in the car, with you fumbling over the registration, Yep. Um kind of say otherwise. All right. So does the odor of alcohol coming from your person. Great, let's let's do a test and We'll We'll get to the test. I can't wait. The teen asked for the test again because he was sure of himself. He even made a video mocking the situation and the officer. So, what happens if, you know, nothing pops up? Do you get in trouble? No. Why would I get in trouble? Because you think I'm drinking, but I'm not drinking. Can I record it? Yeah, absolutely. What's your name? My name is Officer Winters. So, Officer Winters thinks I'm drinking tonight. We're about to do a test and he's going to find out I had nothing to drink. He's going to look stupid. Ain't that right? I've had nothing to drink, zero. And we're about to find out. Winters took Tayvion through a bunch of sobriety tests, all of them except for the breathalyzer. All right, so I'm going to actually have you stand uh right here is fine for now. I'm going to have you stand with your heels and toes together with your arms down your side. Okay, I'm going to check your eyes. Cool. Okay, what I want you to do is follow my finger with your eyes and your eyes only and do not move your head, okay? Yep. Do you have any questions? Nope. All right, so I want you to put your left foot on the line. Okay. Take your right foot, put it in front of your left foot with the heel of your right foot touching the toe of your left foot just like this, okay? Stay in this position until I tell you to begin, okay? Perfect. Galanakis asked for the test for the third and fourth time, but still nothing. Instead, the officer went on with another test. Come on, man. Let's squeeze. Let's do the breath now. You're two for two. Give me a little blow. I will. Blow a zero. I will here in a minute. Okay. All right. Uh couple more tests here, okay? I want you to stand with your heels and toes together with your arms down your side. When I say begin, I want you to estimate the passing of 30 seconds, close your eyes and tilt your head back, okay? Estimate Pass in 3 seconds. Yes, sir. And another. I want you to stand just like you are and make a fist, rotate your hands facing me and extend both index fingers. I wish I would record it, but like my phone's at 1%. Okay, rotate your palms. Just like that. I'm going to give you a series of commands, okay? The command's going to be either left or right. Okay, whichever hand I say, I want you to bring that hand up, touch the tip of your nose with the tip of your finger and bring your hand immediately back down, okay? He asked for the test one last time. Let's blow. Let's blow real quick. Stop doing all these damn tests. Let's blow. Let's get to business. And finally, 1 hour into the stop, Winters got the breathalyzer device, but the results were not what he had expected. You ready? Yep. Okay, you can relax. Um so, I'm going to read you your Miranda, okay? The device showed 0.0, yet he started reading Tavon his Miranda rights before arresting him. All right, now you have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law. You have the right to an attorney. If you cannot afford one, one will be appointed to you before you ask any questions, okay? Yes, sir. Officer Winters didn't show him the results and tried accusing him of smoking weed, too, but Taven caught on immediately. When's the last time you smoked weed? I do not remember that. Tonight? Who? Okay, well, I would I think it's tonight. I've had no weed tonight. Yeah, 6:30 down on 15. Well, why do you think it's tonight? Why do you think I smoked weed? I blew zeros, so now you're trying to think I smoked weed. That's what's going on. You can't do that, man. You really can't do that. Absolutely, I can. Is he allowed to do that? Yes, he is. So, I blew zeros and he thinks I'm on drugs, man. That's what we're on. I blew zeros. Do you think I'm on drugs? Winters said he had a reason for Gallanakis's arrest, but he confessed something different on the phone. Here's my situation. I stopped this guy for having his brights on. Um, he's He fumbles around with his uh, registration three, four, five times. He, uh, um, he bombed sobriety. He I asked him I said I read him Miranda. I PBT triple zeros. Um, so he He says he'll do an evaluation, but he's kind of a smart-ass. Would you want to talk to him or All right, that's what we'll do then. Okay, but I obviously have enough for to charge him with the sobriety, so. Gallanakis was arrested and brought to the police station where he went through yet another test. This time it was a drug test, and of course, Gallanakis had nothing in his system. You're going home tonight, okay? I don't think you're I have no evidence or no information to suggest that you're under the influence of drugs or alcohol. Thank you. So, he wanted to have his last words with Winters who tried so hard to get him charged. So, I just want to know like how does it feel? How does it feel for what? Remember I told you when you first pulled me over? You were like, "You're impaired. You're on drugs. You drink alcohol. Turns out I'm not on any of that. Okay. Really dumb decision by you to do that. I'm really disappointed in how you came about your job today. my decision on your field sobriety test. Was it really failed though? It was It was pouring outside. It was terrible cement. And Tayvon sure had the last laugh, but these four officers are even worse. And your badge number, please? I don't even know why you're here right now. I asked you a direct question. Do you have your badge number on you? you to leave because right now you're not allowed to be on our traffic stop. On March 27th, 2023, an officer approached a guy claiming he was standing too close to their traffic stop, but the guy was at a very considerable distance and he knew it. So, he asked for her badge number. How may I help you? No, thank you. Okay. Well, this is our traffic stop right now, so I'm just going to ask you to go. Okay. Thank you. He's asking to leave. Do you know this person? Since you're making contact with me, could you identify your name and badge number? Um I'm Officer Alby. And your badge number, please? I don't even know why you're here right now. I asked you a direct question. Do you have your badge number on you? I asked you to leave because right now you're not allowed to be on our traffic stop. At first, one officer, Officer Alby, tries to dodge the question, but the guy insisted on getting it. After some back and forth, she finally budges. Ma'am, if you're refusing to identify your badge number, it might result in a complaint with your department. Okay, I understand that. My badge number is 639. very much. asked you a question. At this time At this time it's not consensual. Despite this, the officer still demands the person should move further away from the scene, but he remains unfazed. He stands his ground pointing out his right to be there and watch the police activity from a reasonable distance, which is protected by legal rules, even established by the Supreme Court. Do you have a right to record anything? We need you a little further away from the scene. Do you remember what the Supreme Court ruled as far as the distance? Do you remember what it was? You don't know? Well, anything that we deem as unsafe. Okay, that's false. Have a good day, sir. Okay, cool. I will make sure that I research that information for Thank you, sir. I have the answer, by the way. But just know that you get too close to a scene, you can be arrested. Hey, man. They would have arrested me already, man. Have a good one. Just letting you know. Have a good one. But the situation gets more tense as other officers approach the guy. However, none of them could intimidate him. It's still on. Can we help you with anything? Do you have any business to conduct here right now? Can I ask you what type of business you're conducting here? Can you take your hand out of your pocket for me? Since you're engaging with me, can I get your name and badge number? is Officer Robinson, badge number 659. Thank you very much. right here, behind the vehicles? Did somebody complain to you, sir? No, I didn't know Have a great day, sir. Thank you. Can you step back behind the vehicle for me? Is that a lawful request? It is a lawful request. You've started a lot of traffic stops. What's your name and your badge number? Just answer it, man. I don't have to, but I will because It's your policy. It's actually not our policy. It's not? No, it's not. You don't think it's professional to identify to people? Okay. My name is Officer Love. Love? Yeah, my badge number is right there, 619. 619. Thank you, sir. This guy knew his rights and there was nothing the cops could do about it. So, they left before one of them lost their job. And make sure we always record the police cuz they don't like it at all. They don't like to be seen bullying others. Watch what happens when cops get outsmarted by a 15-year-old kid. What size are you wearing? Okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, OKAY, ENOUGH. STOP. I DIDN'T DO ANYTHING. YOU JUST CHASED ME FOR NO REASON. On September 29th, 2019, the cops messed with the wrong kid. They surrounded the house of Michael Franchek to arrest him, but his son knew constitutional rights a little too well. The whole situation started with Michael's son, Jack, who was riding around on a gas-powered bike, annoying the neighbors in the process. The neighbors didn't appreciate his presence and threatened him. So, Jack's father stepped in and got into an argument with the neighbor. Allegedly, another neighbor called the police claiming that Jack's father had a weapon hidden in his trousers. When police arrived, they decided to talk to Franchek. However, he declined to answer their question or leave his house. He asked for their names and badge numbers, but the officers ignored this request. The situation quickly escalated when the officers started questioning him about an incident, to which he responded that he had no idea what they were talking about. Can I help you? Hello, are you Michael? Hi, can I help you with something? Yeah, we're here about an incident. Officer Rodriguez. Uh, first name? Jim. Jim, how are you, Jim? I'm good. And your name? Please. Officer Sorry. Badge number? What's that? Badge number, please. Let's go ahead and talk about the incident that you had out here a few minutes ago. I don't know what you're talking about. Okay. Just step down here for me. The officers insisted he step down, but he refused. And this is when it got physical. Yeah. No, no. Hey, whoa, whoa. I didn't DO ANYTHING. YOU JUST CAME INTO MY HOUSE WITHOUT A WARRANT. Is there any gun in your back pocket? I just want to make sure we're safe. We're safe. Okay. I'm not coming outside. Can we talk Can we talk right here? Are you sure? Yeah, Jack. Come here and record this. Come on outside. Recording this. Come outside. Jack, record this. Grab my phone and record THIS. WHOA. I'M INJURED. OKAY, COOPERATE. I AM COOPERATING. YOU'RE VIOLATING MY AMENDMENT RIGHT. OUTSIDE, YOU'RE VIOLATING MY FOURTH AMENDMENT RIGHT. THE OFFICERS FORCIBLY TRIED TO ARREST him even though he was unarmed. Then, Michael was suddenly tased and dragged outside the police without doing anything wrong. I didn't do anything. YOU JUST TASED ME FOR NO REASON. OUTSIDE. What are you doing? What am What am I being detained for? Outside. What am I being detained for? Stop resisting. I'm not resisting. I'm not resisting. Thankfully, Jack was recording the entire time even though a cop did try to stop him. Don't take this phone. DON'T TAKE THIS PHONE. I'M GOOD. I'M GOOD. I'VE CHILLED THE WHOLE TIME. I haven't done anything. I HAVEN'T RESISTED. I AM BEHIND MY BACK. THIS is unbelievable. No, I know. This is unbelievable. Search warrant. This is unbelievable. Jack, follow me and record. Follow me and record. Give us space. I'm not Give us space. Okay. Get your space. Get your space. Give us space. Does this look like enough space? The cops took Jack's dad and even injured him in the process. What am I doing? You're going to twist the handcuffs. You're injuring me. I'm not resisting. Yeah, it's all been recorded. I didn't resist. I didn't do it. You know. See, he acknowledged that you didn't resist, Jack. Yeah, I have it on video. I didn't resist. Well, we asked you to stop, right? I didn't I didn't do anything against your instructions. You came This guy came into my house without a warrant, without any probable cause. Let me just talk for a second. I said I don't know anything and he tackled me in my house. And when Jack tried to talk, they didn't let him. They knew he was too smart and he would bring them trouble. Officer Okay, yeah. I'm fine. I can talk because I was in this situation. Okay, then calm down. He recorded the whole thing. This guy is out of control. Okay. What's your badge What's What's your name? Step back. I'M NOT I'M NOT TOUCHING YOU. You can record all you want, but you're stepping back right now. Don't touch me. Stop harassing me. We're just trying to We're just I'm videoing this. You can video this. Please get out of my personal space. No. Yes. You're You're not going to You're not going to interfere with what we're doing. This is my property. You're not going to interfere with an arrest. You can record all you want, but you're not going to get close to what we're I'm on my property. Move back in my personal space. I'm going to stand right here. I'm going to stand right here. Please move. You're in my personal space. What's your name? Yeah, I do not need to give you that. Yeah, you do. For what reason? I know I'm involved with this, yes, but this guy threatened me and called the cops on you. And what's your What's your badge number? What's your name? What's your badge number? Badge number. That's his name. 3K12 Okay. Now, what's your name? I'm not making any statements. You're not making any statements? No. Okay, I have the right to identify you. You understand that, right? Then you can search up my face, and you can search up my record. Okay. Okay. Their only option was to detain the kid, too, and threaten him with juvenile court, but the officers knew he had zero charges. So, you were the one driving up and down the street on a motorcycle? Uh I was on my gas bicycle. Okay, that's gas-powered vehicle. You have to have a driver's license. Um no, you don't. Not when it's 50cc and you have a permit for it. And once again, Jack knew his rights. After a while, the officers found out that Michael did, in fact, have a concealed carry permit, so he was allowed to own a gun as long as he didn't wave it around. And nobody said he did, so the cops had nothing on him. Well, if you didn't threaten anyone with it, there's no No, it was just a concern for me. Oh, no, absolutely. But I don't think there's any reason to try to write a law to get in the house. I'm going to arrest him for failure to obey lawful command, resisting uh disorderly. Yeah, disorderly's That's good, cuz he got her attention, too. The only thing that was left was for the cops to make up a story since there was no crime. I see this going to turn into something. He's going to get on something. I'm going to do the sub on um how the kid was being a dick, how I checked his cuffs. Like, his cuffs were tight. He has big wrists. You only click like once or twice in. You can't click him anymore. What do you do? Right. Okay. Anyway, you got to take him, and then what are you going to do? Resisting, disorderly, failure to identify. Failure to And then I'm going to look up me having a handgun in a dispute. It might not fly. It might fly. I don't know. found a gun. We got the witness statement. Right. But you look that up if you want. That's you may guess. Yeah, I'll look it up. But they didn't get away with it. Officer Rodriguez was charged with five violations, which included using a taser on Michael. Officer Thor was found guilty of three violations as well. Both of them were fired from their positions, and Michael filed a lawsuit seeking over a million dollars in compensation. This is what happens when anyone is allowed to become a cop.
