Hi there. I do have a body camera on. So, the reason I stopped you is your plates are suspended. >> Yes, sir. I've already gotten a couple of tickets. I've gotten a warning. >> I got you. Do you have your license and insurance with you? My Illinois state ID. You don't have your driver's license on you? >> Not physically on me. Like I said, I lost my wallet somewhere either in the car or at the hotel while we were getting ready to come out to do it. So, do you not have a Illinois state driver's license? >> Not state driver. >> Okay. I'm going to take a picture of this real quick on my work phone. Okay. >> Yes, sir. It just sound like he was following us since we got in here. >> All right, there's that for you. >> That's right. >> Do you have your previous tickets or warnings from my bodies? I got I can tell you the police. I have I had two of them for August 6th. As a matter of fact, my last incident was incident was at uh Harley-Davidson. I didn't get a chance to even explain myself before they made up the decision. They were going to tow my car. They didn't even tell me that the tow car that the tow company was on it way until after it was there. >> Hey, just hang out here for a minute. Just work on grabbing that entrance for me. Okay. He doesn't have an Illinois driver's license. He gave me a Missouri picture of one. I don't think they have insurance. They've been stopped recently for mandatory insurance. >> So, the picture of the IP he gave you is a driver's license out of Missouri. >> Yeah, I took a picture of his picture. Yeah. So, the car's registered to him. They're saying that they've been pulling for this recently. You have tickets and warnings and all this stuff. So, he says he already has court dates to go for this stuff, too. Hello, Deputy Chief Goodwin from Mama Police Department. How's it going? >> Not not the best, boss, because this is the fourth of the time I've been pulled over in 5 days. >> Okay. >> I've already got a warning, two tickets, and my car's open. What What What is there left for me to have? >> So, has any officer ever told you within the last times that you've been stopped that you can't drive the vehicle on the roadway with suspended plates? So, here's the deal. Officers have a job to do and they don't have the discretion at times to cut people brakes. One of these times is when you're driving with a suspended plate with no valid insurance at the time of the stop. >> So So, so what do y'all What do I see? Gentleman on my right, you on my left. I'm sorry. A gentleman on my left, you on my right. What? What? >> So what's going to happen is is he told me that your driver's license is valid. However, you don't have proof of insurance and your plate is suspended. So, the state of Illinois says that you cannot drive this vehicle on the roadway. So, your vehicle is going to be towed. >> Bro, tow, bro. >> I literally just got this mother out the I promise you I have papers. I have the reinstatement and everything. You already know about my court dates and more stuff. This is harassment. Especially if y'all to my car WITHIN A WEEK, TWICE WITHIN A WEEK. THIS IS HARASSMENT, BRO. Thank you. >> I need a supervisor.

He's upset cuz his car just got towed the other day. He says he has progressive SR22 insurance. >> No paperwork. >> No paperwork to show us. And they said they couldn't access her email to show us the proof. That's all I was asking for was proof when she was trying to talk to her. >> The female went berserk and then she grabbed the keys from him and trying to push she started hitting him and I said, "Do not be hitting him in front of me and she tried to push him out of the way cuz she was going to jump in the driver's seat to drive off and I went to grab a hold of her and she pushed my hand away." I said, "Okay, now you're getting out of the car." And then she she bit me, which I ripped my hand away. Then she was kicking me and we just fought the entire time. >> Yeah. cuz I was explaining to them, listen, if you've been stopped five times, you've had your car towed. You cannot keep driving on the roadway with suspended plates. He's got a valid Missouri license, no insurance. He claimed that they're homeless and living out of their car, but yet their stuff is at a hotel somewhere. Then she claims she had paperwork and then he's like, "No, you don't. You don't have it here." So then they lost their >> Okay, let's get a record started and send them off. >> Just want to breathe. Even if we just roll down the window, I just want to breathe. I just want to breathe. I just want to breathe. Hold on. I got both of us. Okay. >> Please open up the window before before we fall off. I've been trying to cooperate. I will tip your head forward just a little bit. >> Okay. Pass it back. >> Windows down a little bit for you now. Okay. >> Just take some breaths. All right. >> What did I do to get detained? What did I do to get detained? >> So, you being taken to jail for obstruction justice? What did I do obstructionwise? >> So, we were trying to get the keys. >> I didn't take the keys from her.

How how did I obstruct justice? >> Yeah, we'll we'll chat a little more. >> No, sir. No, sir. Before you before you have a lawful right to take me to jail, you have to tell me what I did. >> It's the reason why you had to tell me my my rights before you take me to jail. You haven't read me my Miranda or anything. >> I don't have to read your Miranda rights. >> Yes, you do. >> No, I don't. Move your knees. >> Yes, you do. >> Move your knees. >> My Miranda rights are literally in the Bill of Rights, sir. It is. Oh my lord. Oh my lord. Oh my lord. You haven't read my heart. >> I don't like patients anymore. >> The male suspect, Luther, was charged with operating a suspended registration. He entered no plea and was found guilty. He was ordered to pay $390 in fines and court costs. The female suspect, Amanda, was charged with two counts of felony aggravated battery on a peace officer, resisting and domestic battery with physical contact. She took a plea deal, pleading guilty to the resisting charge. She was sentenced to 2 years of probation, ordered to perform 100 hours of public service, and ordered to enroll in a partner abuse intervention program. Most people think a stop like this ends with a ticket, but in most places, it ends with a tow and a ride. Now, in Philly, when a car got towed, officers had a responsibility. You weren't just left out there. We had to take you somewhere safe. Home, a district, even public transit if you needed it. Now, think about what you just watched. This started as a toe, right? Suspended registration, no insurance, license issues, and yes, that's a bad day, but it's not life-changing. But then it turns because he starts hitting the guy and he's gripping that steering wheel like if he doesn't let go, none of this becomes real. Some people never think about this, but the moment frustration takes over, you stop managing the situation and start becoming part of the problem. Now, this could have ended simple, a story that they complained about later. Instead, it became something they had to deal with long term. So, let me ask you this and be honest.
