officer mfield Cy Police Department what's your name Elise Elise yeah okay Elise what do we got going on here tonight the car yeah is this where you parked no no who put your car here I did oh okay you just are you resting not right now no you were no okay well here's the thing Miss Elise okay I spoke with some of my colleagues here and we have some potential suspicion that you may be impaired Beyond normal faculty to operate this vehicle okay um I request that you do submit to some field toy exercises do you agree to do so yeah okay whose car is this can you get the lights off absolutely Serge if we want to I think it's right there that'll be well lit well I agree as um so miss le as you can imagine um it is 11:00 on a week night we have a lot of blue lights going and we're probably going to start to bother some people um so I'm going to ask we transport you just up the road here to this parking lot where it's a lot of fresh Light level ground and it's safe for all of us so we have to worry about nobody coming in here and hitting us with their cars what do you think okay okay all right I'm going to ask you get one of our cars drive you up there you mind doing so okay and what about my car well yeah we're going to have an officer stay with it we're probably going to have to move it from here just cuz there's still a flow of traffic that could still come through here um but other than that luckily there's plenty of us so we'll let some of my other colleagues help me out with that and then we can go down and run through some of this exercise what do you think we'll leave it where it stands for right now we we'll block the road nobody hits it or anything like that fig out s Fair yeah okay all right my vehicle's right over here will you follow follow me over to my vehicle yes okay all right I'll let you go first go ahead so where to we're going to go to my car and in my car we can go up the road on our left there's a parking lot yes the one way in the back the SUV back there you want to open I got to put look it in right here all right okay Farm let's head right over here to some of these lines we got in the parking lot okay let's specifically use this one so this is what I normally will do before I begin my exercises somebody else may do it differently um but I can ever find it here it is Miss least because I have out I have you out here with me and you are not free to leave and I am investigating a crime um I'm going to read your Miranda warning this is not an omission of guilt don't take this the wrong way it's my policy it's my job I have to read you this you have to know your rights okay um you have the right to remain silent anything you say canot be against you the court of law you have the right to talk to a lawyer and have her present with you while being questioned if you cannot afford to hire a lawyer one will be appointed representing for any questioning if you wish you can decide at any time to exercise these rights and answering questions or making any statements do you understand each is rights of explain them to you yes okay um so Mr I know your vehicle was over there um we're going to have to put a pause on running through some of the exercises for right now until my sergeant go ahead and give me the approval on doing so um may may seem to be that you were involved in some kind of a vehicle accident um do you by chance know if you have hit anything any bumps you felt with driving today anything like that no okay do you know if you hit that pole you were in front of by chance no you don't know if you did I didn't not you didn't hit it no okay cuz I guess it's kind of bent a little crooked and there was some concern about that so I just wasn't sure if you knew what that was about cuz I mean your car was there and Par in front of it and obviously I'm assuming you know that's are we not very normal for your car to be that way right so you don't know nothing about it are you trying to ask me about it or yeah mean if you didn't hit it did you see anybody hit the pull it no the the sign is bent so okay it was just like that I don't know what you want from me well Ian we're just trying to figure out what's going with the poll cuz I can't continue my investigation until they finish that one so if I can get it quicker now I can get it done quicker by giving them some information somewhere to go look somewhere to somebody to give them some information on how the pole got destroyed we only ask you because your car was parched in front of it so we figured you may have seen somebody or know what happened okay so continue on well I have to wait till I get my start appr wait to hang tight for one second 231 100 correction 200 sorry careful she advised she did not strike the pole she does know that it is bent but doesn't know how all right um so I guess it appears your vehicle did hit the pole uh a piece of your vehicle did come apart when it made contact with the pole so what they're going to do is they're going to just do a little report um for hitting the pole and then once they wrap that up we can move on to my investigation okay all right um would you feel more comfortable just sitting in the car and having a seat while we wait until he gets that approval or do you want to stand who can I contact can I contact my friend for a ride or what do you yeah for a ride until we finish our investigation unfortunately we can't we can't ask for any ride right now we have to finish our investigation first yeah okay I get that and if anybody's going to give you ride it's most likely going to be us okay especially just the time of night yeah so Le real quick if I if you don't mind mind cutting in is it okay if my officers that are out with your vehicle like get your insurance card from your vehicle yeah okay where would that insurance card be um in the glove compartment or if not it'll be on my um through my phone okay okay is it okay if my officers check the glove compartment quick can I use my phone can I call my friend or not we have to wait right now just cuz we do have an investigation going on okay that's all right now I don't mean no offense to you no it's fine we're going to make this go as Expedition I ly as possible okay no I mean I drive I I went to I work it oh right on Essence lawn which is I guess you could say dress St nice that's uh that's right right by the FD right the one by the Goodwill yeah I've been there how was it what' you get what I eat yeah what you what did you get what do they got freaking burit Ian Vitas oh nice right on I didn't even know they had that all right so it looks like Miss the least that they just about got their stuff wrapped up but we need to have them wrap up so it means I can kind of pick up where we left off with my investigation um like I said your vehicle was involved in an accident and there's property damage to include so we had to have them get that squared away and and get your insurance and whatnot before I can continue does that make sense all right okay Miss Elise I can now begin I left off do you want to do me a favor and just get back on this white line here for me real quick you want to step forward this a few feet just cuz I don't want you to come near that concrete block okay all right would you do me a favor in Sandwich your feet together heels heels toes to toes and keep your arms on your side can you get your feet closer together by chance okay T you can open separate like s said for that signal one I'll take primary with the case number all right piz together arms down at your side okay yeah okay here's what I want you to do do not move from this spot okay I will move from it and step around because I'm the investigating officer I ask you just do not move okay stay where you're at stay where I'm at don't move out of it I want to let you know right now if you do move out of this stance it's going to get counted against you okay okay all right my on holding on this forry I don't don't know where to put it okay so I'm going to ask you a few questions first is my little medical exam okay have you ever been in a traffic crash before a traffic crash crash I'm on your side yes an accident where you've got an injury any type of brain injury anything like that okay or any heart problems anything like that you know about you want me just pass out on me or nothing like that no okay you have you ever been diagnosed with a nagus a resting nag were your eyes move anything like that no you would know if you did no okay then no okay all right sounds good do you wear contacts glasses contacts are you wearing them now yes okay all right I'm just going to have you do me a favor see that little light yeah what color is it green okay I'm going to have you follow this light with your eyes and just your eyes okay don't move your head don't move your neck don't move your shoulders okay just your eyes so I'm looking you in the eyes I'm going to look at that yes ma'am you may begin looking at the light all right tell me when you're ready to begin yeah I'm look at it oh just your eyes one more time keep watching okay okay okay than up and down okay keep watching it mhm okay all right so that's going to be the conclusion of the first exercise okay the next exercise I'm going to have you perform is going to be the walking tone you ever heard of it I don't know you ever see it on TV just keep holding that position okay okay keep on that position okay on the line yep just how you are just like how we've been okay all right well I'm going to demonstrate for you okay would you agree that this is a fairly well lit flat and level surface yes okay all right take your left foot and put it on the line okay on the line yeah yep right in front of you okay try to try to Center your foot up for me a little bit set so your foot's kind of come at an angle can you get it lined up just like this middle of the line yep put your foot over a little bit over this way there's a raise on those platform would you uh this is going to require you walking do you want to take those off and do this in your bare feet cuz it might honestly work against you wearing those while you do this okay you want to take those off real quick and just do it with your bare feet yeah I I think it I think it honestly may hurt you if you you wear those cuz it's probably not going to be as much balance I didn't realize that they were a different inch from the front to the back so take them both off yeah take take them both off yeah I think it's probably going to help you okay and then I'll move these over yeah you don't put move the side there you go okay let's try this one more time okay put your left foot in the line in front of you just like so okay no that's not it okay look where my look how my foot is so left foot yeah okay I'm not hanging off the edge though right in the center of the line just like boom that's it okay now mirroring what I do with that left foot on the line you're going to take your right foot put it directly in front of it just like this like this heal the toe yep heal the toe look at me see how mine's heal the toe yeah you're not heal the toe you're not even close left foot left foot in the line right foot no okay go back now we're losing too much room all right left foot on the line left

height of a coat can approximately 6 in try to factor in what you think 6 in is off the ground okay now when if you do have your leg up and you put it back down at all make sure you raise it up okay don't put it down down but if you do lose balance and you put your foot down at all make sure you bring it right back up and keep counting okay if you step out of position at all out of this line
