a weapon's call one six three I I'm you ask me what you're going to jail for and that's what I'm just telling you OK one four six nine out of the prisoner what do you got on June 16th, 2023 Tampa International Airport Authority Police responded to a theft of services complaint at a restaurant inside the airside terminal under Florida Statutes Section 812.015 obtaining food or services with intent to avoid payment constitutes theft of services the subject's statement good go to jail is legally significant it removed all ambiguity about intent to avoid payment crystallizing probable cause for arrest the server's firsthand account provided the articulable reasonable suspicion required under Terry v Ohio to justify an investigative detention probable cause is evaluated at the moment of the officer's detention decision not based on facts that emerge afterward the subject's subsequent payment of the tab does not retroactively eliminate the probable cause that existed at the moment of contact the subject's use of profanity directed at officers does not constitute a criminal offense city of Houston v hill established that the First Amendment protects a wide range of verbal criticism of law enforcement officers are held to a higher threshold of restraint than ordinary citizens when facing verbal provocation however First Amendment Protection does not extend to conduct that independently disturbs public order Florida Statutes Section 8 77.03 requires conduct that disrupts the peace or tends to provoke a breach of the peace in a public place a crowded airport terminal is unambiguously a public place under Florida law the ground control technique applied here is evaluated under Graham versus Conner which establishes three factors the severity of the crime at issue whether the subject poses an immediate threat and whether the subject is actively resisting the underlying offenses are misdemeanor level no weapon threat was present however active physical resistance in a congested public terminal shifts the proportionality calculus no strikes were thrown no weapons were deployed the technique served to contain not to punish under the gram standard the force used falls within a defensible range one officer stated you have a right to remain silent use it this does not constitute a complete Miranda warning Miranda v Arizona requires four elements the right to silence notification that statements may be used in court the right to an attorney and the right to appointed counsel if unable to afford one no substantive interrogation followed on camera which limits but does not eliminate the procedural deficiency any statement obtained from the subject prior to a complete advisement would face suppression under Miranda the search conducted prior to placing the subject in the patrol vehicle is constitutionally authorized Chimal versus California established that a search incident to a lawful arrest requires no additional warrant the subject's resistance during this search pulling away and tensing against officer control satisfies the elements of Florida Statutes Section 8 43.02 obstruction or resistance of an officer in the lawful execution of a legal duty without violence primary officer b minus correct statutory application no weapons deployed however a disputed early physical contact that the camera angle does not resolve appears to have ignited escalation that may have been avoidable Miranda advisement was procedurally deficient secondary officer B+ consistent de escalation language proactive duty of care positioning during transport and professional composure throughout subject C+ profane speech was constitutionally protected the charges did not arise from language they arose from sustained disruptive conduct and physical resistance during a lawful search both charges were of the subject's own making department B adequate procedural training reflected in the arrest with identifiable gaps in rights advisement compliance that warrant reinforcement the key takeaway from this encounter is the distinction between protected speech and actionable conduct officers must recognize that profanity and verbal hostility do not satisfy disorderly conduct statutes the conduct element sustained physical disruption in a public space is what makes the charge legally defensible here for the public constitutional rights are tools not Shields against the consequences of one's own conduct silence compliance and the courtroom are consistently more effective remedies than confrontation and for both parties
