It always starts the same. >> YOU KNOW WHAT? HEY, GET HIM THE OUT OF HERE. >> SOME FLASH their badges. >> Cincinnati. >> Okay. Okay. >> Others try to talk their way out. >> Field sobriety test. >> Yes, sir. A standardized field sobriety test. >> Would you be willing to submit? >> I wasn't driving. >> And when they fail, they pull rank. >> Molly, come on, BUDDY. >> COME ON. YOU WANT I WANT THE CHIEF OF POLICE IN BRIDGEVIEW. WHY YOU DO THIS TO ME? NO, YOU'RE NOT. >> Some even turn cruel, ridiculing their fellow officers. >> So, the bail on that is what, 500? >> I I I honestly don't know >> cuz you're a [ __ ] amateur. >> Don't tell us how to do that. >> You don't have [ __ ] PC. >> Okay, so we're going to go with fat guy now. >> Well, have you seen yourself? >> But when nothing else works, the begging begins. >> Okay, guys. Come on. No, you guys are my buddies. >> I know. Then let's go. Let's go. >> I know, but don't. >> Then comes the oldest defense in the book. Denial. >> Man, how much you had a drink? Literally nothing. >> Because they all know what's coming next. >> If I refuse, I go to jail. >> I don't know. We'll find out. >> Four cops, four arrests, one sobering reality. No one's above the law. These are the top four cops. Arrested for being drunk. All right, so let's start the video with this guy, Officer Paul Fenick. It was early morning in San Antonio when Officer Paul Fenick showed up for his shift, same as he had for 18 years. But that morning, his supervisors noticed something off and asked officer Allison from the DWI unit to check him out. >> Okay, Paul. >> Yeah, this officer Allison with the DWI unit. How you doing, Paul? >> I guess they've got more stuff they're working on right now. um authority of the chief's office. So um he's just going to talk to you a little bit here. Just listen to what he's had to say and we'll go from there. Okay. >> This was serious. Orders came straight from the chief himself. >> Okay. >> All right, Paul. At first, I'm just going to read you your rights. Okay. Before you ask any questions, is my duty as a police officer to advise you of your rights and warning the consequences of waving these rights. >> You have the right to remain silent. You do not make a statement or to anyone. Any statement that you make will be used as evidence against you in court at your trial. You have the right to have a lawyer present to advise you in court for a lawyer at trial. You may have your own lawyer present or feel unable to employ a lawyer. The court will appoint a lawyer pre- charge now at the time you want. >> Fenick was in uniform on duty and drunk. His supervisors noticed the smell of alcohol on him during roll call. >> Stage of proceedings. Paul, do you understand his rights as I read them to you? >> Yes. >> Okay. Paul, would you be willing to submit this field sobriety test? >> A field sobriety test? >> Yes, sir. A standardized field sobriety test. >> Would you be willing to submit? >> I wasn't driving. Well, that's not true. When his supervisors noticed he was drunk, they started an internal investigation, but Officer Fenick quietly slipped out, got into his patrol car, and drove off the lot. His supervisor called him back immediately, and now we are here >> driving. >> Um, evidently, you have been driving, I guess. So, that's where >> I was in I was in the parking lot. >> Yeah. >> Um, yeah, I guess there's video of you driving. He's been on the force for 18 years. He knows what's coming next. You >> going to bring me to jail? I >> I don't know at this point right now. This He's just He just got here. So, we're just This is all just starting like right now. So, >> what the happened? I don't know. >> He doesn't know right now. It's >> I just need to see I just need to evaluate you. >> If he refuses, they will arrest him. And if he agrees, he knows he will fail the test. Yeah. >> Nobody wants to be here, Paul. I promise you that. But we do have to make a decision on what you want to do. >> Well, I can't refuse. >> It's it's it's your choice. You could refuse to go to jail. >> You couldn't refuse the P test at this point. What you do is all up to you. But right now, this isn't administrative stuff. So, This is all this at this point. Your supervisor is not out of the equation. It's it's really officer Allison. And again, like you said, nobody wants to be here, but here here we are. So, moving forward and nothing to do with them. It's you either want to participate with the field test or you don't. >> But it's not it's not a supervisor issue at this point. >> No, we're already ratted out. Are we going to do this part or? >> Yeah, I guess we'll do it. I mean, what am I going to do? >> I That's your decision. >> Yeah. >> Got no choice. >> So, come here. >> Go follow you, Sergeant. >> He was escorted to where it all started that morning. >> All right, Paul. Want to stand right there? >> Mhm. >> Feet together. arms by your side. >> Mhm. >> Just maintain that position until I tell you to begin. Okay. >> The test starts. First up is the horizontal gaze nestagmas test. >> All I need you to do, sir, is keep your head still. I need you to focus on the tip of this pin. Okay? Using your eyes and your eyes only. >> Make sure you're keeping your head still. Officer Allison watches for tiny jerks in the eyes. The kind that becomes more obvious when someone is intoxicated. Make sure you're focusing on the tip of the pin. He's already >> He barely passes the HGN test. And now it's time to do the vertical gaze nestagmus VGN test. >> Okay. Same thing. Eyes and eyes only. Don't use your head. I'm going to go up with it. Okay. >> Mhm. >> All right. Ball goes and relax. All right, sir. Next thing I'm going to ask you to do is face the wall over there. Okay. Imagine a straight line. Okay. I need you to place your left foot on said line. Try to go towards the middle there. A little bit to your right. Right there, sir. Yes, sir. Okay. Place your right foot touching heel to toe in front of your left foot. Arms by your side. I need you to maintain that position until I tell you to begin. Do you understand, Paul? >> Can I get a verbal yes or no? >> Yes. >> Okay. All right. When I tell you to begin, sir, you're going to take nine heel totoe steps straight along that imaginary line. Um, as you're walking along that line, you're going to look down at your feet. Count your steps out loud. Uh, looking down at your feet. Once you start, you can't stop. >> This is called the walk and turn test. >> No. Like I said, whenever you're ready, you may begin. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 back. >> As I instructed, sir. >> 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9. >> Okay, Paul. So, this is going to be the one leg stand. At this point, I need you to put your feet together, arms by your side, just like this. Okay? And then, uh, when I tell you to begin or I need you to maintain that position I tell you to tell you to begin. Do you understand, Paul? >> Okay. When I tell you to, you're going to raise whichever foot you desire, your whole leg, uh, left or right does not matter to your choice. >> This is the one leg stand test. One of the most difficult tests to pass. 100,0001 102 1003 1004 105 1006 107 1008 10901 201234 120 Morning. >> Okay, go inside. >> You can see a few signs that he's drunk, but Officer Fenick hasn't actually failed any of the physical tests so far. Still, the smell of alcohol is undeniable. He handles the balance part fine. Let's see how his coordination is. Close your eyes. Left, right. Left, right, right, left. >> Okay, go ahead and relax, Paul. >> Mhm. >> He passes that too. Then the DWI officer gave him some simple mental tests. Could you without counting or without saying the song the alphabet song could you say the alphabet from C to P >> backwards? >> No, just C to P. >> C to P. >> Yes, sir. C and the alphabet to P. >> C D E F G H I J K L M N O P. >> Okay. And uh could you count backwards from 54 to 41? >> With practice, people can get through the physical tests, but the mental ones are harder to fake. And that's where he slips. He ends up skipping a number. Watch closely. >> 54 53 52 51 49 48 47 46 45 44 >> Okay, thank you. >> Okay, Paul, I'm going have to do the uncomfortable thing, right? Just turn around. >> After being detained, they took his blood sample. Fensick's blood alcohol content was 0.15, almost twice the legal limit. When officers searched his patrol car, they found an open beer in the console and a cooler full of unopened cans. He was arrested. He posted bond the same day, but then he was placed on desk duty. While the investigation continued soon after Fenick's arrest, another cop stumbled. This one, a Mercer Island sergeant who drank his way into a demotion. It began at a little roadside bar in Fall City. Officer Todd and his wife Jennifer were there drinking that night. >> A female voice from the back said, "I left my phone. Bartender told her, "You're going to have to come back tomorrow. Like the alarm's already set." >> The bartender didn't have the code. That didn't sit well with our officer, Todd. >> A male voice said, "I'm going to get in that building." Todd flashed his police badge and declared the bar wasn't legally closed yet. He insisted his badge gave him the right to enter. From there, the situation went downhill. Todd started threatening the men nearby. Jennifer, however, kicked one of the men in the groin, then slapped him across the face, even kicked him again. Todd drove off, but it didn't take long before the cops pulled him over. >> What's the BC Brut about? >> BC assault. All right. They >> Oh, really? >> Todd denied it all. He thought there were no cameras there. >> There's no assault. >> Okay. They have cameras there. >> Yeah, there's no cameras. >> Okay. >> And she wasn't going to. >> Dude, do you know there's no cameras outside? >> Officer Todd and Jennifer were so drunk they could barely get their words out, snapping at the officers who tried to talk to them. >> You have to arrest me to be able to hold me. >> Okay. Put her in cops. >> Yes. >> I You have Terry? >> You have Terry? Put her in. No one to put her in. Let's [ __ ] go then. >> You can go. >> I would love to take a picture of you, but I don't have my phone. >> I know. I'm really sorry about your phone. >> Oh, I will. >> Are you? >> I am. >> Are we going now? >> I'm okay. >> You don't have Terry. >> Stop. >> You don't have So, no. You don't have Terry. >> I do. >> Really? >> Jennifer was loud and out of line, but it was Todd's behavior that really caught the department's attention. >> If you want to pursue us, guess what? You can't. >> Okay. And if we take off, you cannot chase us. >> But I could charge your friend with felony of looting. >> And who's he? >> It wouldn't be hard to find. >> King County prosecutors do not charge of looting. >> They most definitely do. >> No, they don't. >> In Todd's mind, the cops had no probable cause to stop him. And he had every right to just drive off. >> You had no [ __ ] PC to stop this >> on medication. >> I don't need probable cause. >> Yeah, you do. >> I need reasonable suspicion of a crime. >> Oh, that's cute. >> No. >> [ __ ] him. No, he can't do [ __ ] if we take >> What the hell? >> No, he knows he can't do [ __ ] >> Eventually, Jennifer came to her senses. She didn't fight the arrest, but her attitude was still ugly. >> Do you understand his rights? >> No. >> The smell of alcohol was strong and Todd temper kept rising. So much so, he started ridiculing the arresting officer. >> I only got on 9 years. Amateur. The cop told him they had plenty of witnesses to the assault. But Todd still thought it wasn't fair. >> There's multiple witnesses there, third party uninvolved that say that's what occurred. Okay. >> Really? >> Yeah. I'm not over there, man. I'm just telling you what my partner said. Okay. >> Your partner is not wrong. I mean, >> not wrong. >> Okay. >> I am drunk. >> I know you are. >> Drunk or not, his taunts kept coming. >> So, the bail on that is what, 500? >> I I I honestly don't know. because you're a [ __ ] amateur. >> Imagine a sergeant mocking you, then trying to scare you with his connections. >> You know JD Williams? >> Yeah. >> Yeah. [ __ ] great guy. >> Yeah, he is. I'll tell you how you've been behaving tonight, too. I want I'm sure he'll want to look up the body cam footage of this. >> He will. >> Yeah. All right. >> Not long after, Todd showed up at the King County Jail. He identified himself as a sergeant and demanded his wife be released. When that didn't work, staff said he threatened to block the entrance. An internal review later listed 11 problems in his behavior from that night, flashing his badge, making threats, lying to cops. The list went on. His conduct was unacceptable. Sergeant Todd Roenamp was demoted down to officer after the investigation. Not long after the dust settled in Washington, another storm was brewing. This time hundreds of miles away in Illinois. It was supposed to be a quiet night in Justice. But things took a wild turn when officers ended up wrestling a former police chief out of his car after a crash spiraled out of control. When first responders reached the scene, former police chief Walter Cleck was yelling from inside his car. The other driver he'd hit was furious. >> OKAY, >> shut up or I'll put you out of your misery right now. >> My wife's got MS. >> She's wheel in a wheelchair. We're on our way to go have dinner with our daughter. She's already down. She's probably turned around. >> All right. >> I know he was going too fast. He hit that. This car is total out now. >> It was a rough crash. Plyc was bleeding, likely concussed, and stubbornly refusing to get out of his wrecked Buick. >> At least I got traffic. >> He's got a little bit of blood hangers on. >> Other than that, I'm trying to keep you calm. >> Yeah. >> The airbags had gone off. The horn was still blaring, and Cleck was clearly out of it. >> Hey, I'm sorry, sir. Did you see what happened? >> Yes. This guy. Sorry my English is not good, but I try to explain this. This guy coming from all the way. >> The guy in the Buick. >> Yeah, I hit the fast p sometime and hit this car. >> KMEX slammed into a guardrail, spun out, and hit another car, injuring a passenger. >> What? >> Okay. >> Okay, THAT'S >> LET ME GO. >> I SAW THE FIRE department pull out. Yeah, they probably can't open. >> I know. I know. What's his name? I was His name's Larry Cleick. HIS LAST NAME. >> HE WORKS FOR THE I don't know, >> but last name's on the back of the wife's place. >> He's got a hand injured here. That's why he's yelling, screaming like that. >> But, uh, >> come on. >> Other than that, I don't know if he's been drinking or not. >> It's hard to tell. >> Okay, HERE WE GO. COME ON. LET'S GO. LET ME GO. >> He's got HIM ON HIS LAP. >> I CAN'T tell if I can't tell if it's an I can't see if he's got an injury or what. >> What the HE'S GOT LET ME HE'S got blood on his face. >> I don't know if that was from Probably Probably the airbag. >> Yeah, maybe. >> The officers needed him out of the car so they could reach the other crushed vehicle where passenger was hurt. That's why the fire department was on scene. But Cleck had other ideas. >> Maybe. >> COME ON. YOU >> DUDE. CALM DOWN. CALM DOWN. CALM DOWN. >> Make me [ __ ] go. >> Okay. All right. Calm down. >> THEN MAKE ME GO. >> Calm down. >> Relax. >> You know what? I'm I'm the >> You know what? I'M THE COP AND BRIDGE. YOU >> don't do that. >> Okay. Stop. >> Yeah. Come on. >> No. Come on. >> I don't I don't know too. What? You have a 32 on them. >> I don't know. >> You have a gun on you? >> 934. >> Yeah, I DO. BUT LET ME GO. COME ON. >> Come on. Let me go. >> The officers had no clue who he was. All they could tell was that he'd taken a hit to the head. And maybe that's why he was acting out of control. Maybe he responds differently to the firefighters. >> I can't get in there. Um I don't know if he's got a head injury. I don't know. He's a village employee and his name's Larry Clemick. So, and he's got blood hanging off his >> And he's he's he's swearing and all that [ __ ] >> He uh >> that way. >> I'm sorry. We heard him last. >> He hit the center. He hit the center median. He was going this way and hit the center med. >> Is your car in park, sir? >> Well, you guys are awesome. You're good. You're good. Good. >> Dude, you got to get out of the car climbing. >> Let me go ahead. There you go. >> Yeah. Hearing problem. >> I don't know. >> No, I'm not. >> Larry, don't give these guys a hard time. >> Don't give them a hard time. All right. >> They're great. >> Don't give them Yeah. Don't give them a hard time. >> No, no, they're great. >> Thank you very much. You got to get out of the car, man. your head off. >> With airbag out of the way, he tried to persuade him out. >> While you're >> Wallally, you got to have to get out of the car, my man. >> Dude, don't make this harder than it has to be. Please >> try putting on this, >> Wall-E. >> Get out of the car. >> Who the [ __ ] put that in there? >> Uh, what's the make of your car? >> Not me. Obviously, not. >> I think it's a Buick. >> Wall-E, you have to get out of the car. Tell them, "Get the out of here." >> Yo, you're going in there, >> obviously. >> Get the [ __ ] out of here. >> You want to walk over there? You want us to bring the stretcher? >> Get out of the car. >> Because of him, the road was completely blocked and a long line of cars had piled up behind him. They need him out of the car immediately. >> Come on, Wally. You ready? >> Come on, buddy. You got to get out. You >> got to get out. I'm looking for him. >> It's your wedding. >> What's up? >> Well, you're right. Let's go. >> What the is this? >> Come on, buddy. >> You know what? Come on. Get the out of here. >> Let me get a seat belt. >> Oh, what? What are you doing back here? >> You know what? >> WHAT ARE YOU DOING BACK HERE IN my arm? >> Wally, come on. >> Come on. Got to come out of the car. >> No, I don't. >> You got a seat belt cutter? Hey, >> I just I just pulled it off. >> Oh, it's off. >> I undid it. >> So, it should be >> Come on, Wally.

You know, LEAVE ME ALONE. >> IF YOU WANT TO KEEP >> YOU KNOW WHAT? GET HIM THE OUT OF HERE. >> IF YOU WANT TO KEEP ANY ANY part of your career left, get out of the car. Nice. >> Getting up close, the cops noticed a strong smell of alcohol. >> That's when it hit them. He wasn't concussed. He was drunk. >> Let's go. >> NO. >> STOP FIGHTING. >> STOP DOING IT TO ME. >> NO. STOP doing that to me. >> Wally, out of the car, my man. >> I know, BUT >> STOP DOING THAT to me. >> Wally, come on.

YOU'REING HURTING ME. >> WELL, then quit resisting. >> What? >> Stop. >> You're hurting me. >> Oh, well, quit resisting. >> OW. [Applause] WHOA, WHOA, WHOA, WHOA, WHOA. THAT'S MY >> He was taken to the hospital where he's refused to give blood samples. 4 hours after the accident, Walter Cleck was taken to the station. >> Your vehicle was towed cuz you you were in a car accident. >> My vehicle? What? It was towed. >> Towed? >> Yeah. >> No, it's not towed. >> Well, yes, it was. I'm telling you. >> This is going to be >> Was it towed by you? >> Listen.

Okay. >> So, that's what's going on. >> No. >> Uh well, I mean, it's not a debate. I'm I'm telling you what's going on and what you're being charged with. >> He still looked lost, struggling to understand what happened. >> Yeah. I'm drunk. >> Okay. So then you can argue that in court. >> Yeah. >> Here you go. >> So So I'm not signing anything. >> That's just a promise. You're going to go to court. >> Citation a notice. >> I'm not going to court because >> Okay. >> I came from them when I was working and I I can't you know I came by you guys. >> Yeah. >> In the end, Walter Cleck, the former chief of police, was booked for DUI and resisting arrest. Just as the Bridge View Chief's wild, screaming meltdown made headlines, another officer faced a DUI stop in Cincinnati. But this time, the suspect stayed calm and collected. And the first thing he showed to the cop was his badge. >> Hello. >> Got you. Stop your speed. >> My bad, bro. I appreciate it. Cincinnati. >> Okay. Okay. Anything to drink tonight? >> Nope. >> Mind if I check your eyes out? >> Yes, sir. >> All right. Bring your head out here just a little bit. >> Okay. probably tip my finger with your eyes on it. Don't over, >> man. How much you had to drink? >> Literally nothing. I took my friend home. >> All right, I'm going to get you out. Make sure you're okay. Drive. Step on. >> You know your tags are expired as well. >> I I know that already. I work for Cincinnati. >> You work for Cincinnati. You got >> You got I showed you my badge. >> I know, but I'm saying you work for Cincinnati and you're driving around with expired tags. >> How long you work for him? >> About a year and a half. I gra I I started when I graduated college. >> All right. I'm going have you walk to the passenger side of my vehicle. >> You said walk to the P. >> Yes. >> Just like what do you want me to start? >> Just walk back there. Just walk normal. >> Just walk. >> Yeah. Normal. >> Okay. >> He was ready to start the walk and turn test right there. He just wanted to get it over with and go back home. >> Yeah. Normal. >> Okay. Yeah. >> I I didn't know if you were doing if you're doing the the the step test or whatever. >> No, I'm going to do HDN first and we'll go from there. Sim on my front tire then. [Applause] Where do you live at? You >> still what? >> Where do you live at? >> I'm literally going home and drop my friend off. >> Okay, >> we're at my friend's house. >> Okay, cool. >> His name is Officer Justin Shields. And at first glance, he doesn't look drunk. He talks clearly, nothing slurred, and to an untrained eye, he seems sober. But the state trooper knows how to spot the signs. The trooper starts off with the HGN test. Just your eyes on your head off. [Music] Officer Shields is laser focused. So focused he barely even blinks. >> You blink at any time. >> You can blink at any time. >> Okay. >> Okay. >> You know the process, man. I got to hold >> I know. I know. I know the process. Like I know it. >> All right. So, you know, I got to hold out there for so long. So, just stay looking here. >> You keep moving your head. Just keep it straight, man. >> It's It's the light. Like, I'm sorry. >> I'm trying to keep the light out of your eyes. Just follow the pen. All right. >> Yep. >> Now, his confidence waivers and he squeezes out the perfect get off free phrase. I literally live like 20 like 15 20 minutes away. Okay. >> You might be wondering why the trooper is giving him so much trouble. He doesn't look drunk, right? That's because you can't smell him. When the trooper first got to his car, the alcohol smell hit him hard. >> How much you had to drink tonight? >> Literally nothing. >> Nothing at all? >> No, sir. >> All right. What would anyone sane do in this situation? Step up and take the breathalyzer. Right. Judging by officer Shield's calm, cooperative attitude, you'd think he would agree wholeheartedly. >> So, nothing to drink at all. >> No, sir. >> So, if you blow a portable breath test, it' be triple zero. >> I refuse all that. You can call your sergeant if you want to. >> I don't need to call my sergeant. >> I'm just call I'm just saying, but like I had literally have had nothing to drink. >> Nothing to drink, then it would be triple zero, right? You mean you both know how it goes? >> I know how it goes. >> Yeah, me too. >> And you've been drinking? >> I have not. >> You have? I can still smell it on you as you're talking. >> You cannot smell anything on me. I can smell gum cuz I've had gum. >> No, I can smell stronger and alcohol. >> You cannot. >> I can't. >> Okay. >> Why would I make it up? Why would I pull you out of the car? >> I I have no idea. I was speeding. Yes. If you want to speeding ticket and ticket for my for my registration be expired, fine. That's fine. >> Okay. But you're not willing pulling on a portable breath test? No, sir. I want to put you do some more tests. >> I refuse. >> You refuse. Go ahead and turn around. Put your hands down. >> What? What test? >> Turn around. >> I will I will do the test. >> So, you want to do the test now? >> I will do the test. >> I really just want to meet >> Why Why are you trying to You know how this goes, right? >> I know how it goes. That's That's That's why I'm asking why you're doing this. Like, I want to get >> Because I smell alcohol. I'm doing I'm doing my job. >> Okay, I will do it. Do you want me to walk in the line with you? >> No. No. Just don't walk away. I'm right here. >> I start started the line right here. >> You want to You want to walk on the the crack of this line right here? Whatever you want me to do. >> That That is obviously uneven pavement. No, I'm going to have you walk in front of my car. >> Okay, that's fine. >> Walk up here. >> How many steps? >> Walk up. Just walk >> regular. >> Yeah. >> Not one foot in front of the other. >> No, you'll explain it when you get up here. I'm going to have you walk towards my car. >> Okay. So, just walk regular. >> Yes. That's what I just said. You're not listening. >> No, I know how it Stop right there. That's why I asked. >> Turn towards my car. >> Okay. >> Let's see how he handles the walk and turn test. Heel toe arms out at your side. Stay in that position till I tell you to start. What you're going to do is take nine heel toe steps down the line. >> This is I don't know if I can take nine steps, but I will try. >> They're going to be heel to toe steps. You'll be able to take nine hill toe steps. All right. Unless you got Shaquille O'Neal's feet, you'll be fine. And they don't look like Shaquille O'Neal's feet. So nine hill toe steps down that line. Once you get down that line, you're going to keep your lead foot on the ground. Take a series of small steps, turn around, and take nine hill checks. Okay, you can go ahead and begin a test. 1. 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9. Can I come back now? >> Yeah. >> Okay. One, two. >> A slight stumble at step number two. 2 3 4 5 6 7 >> 8 All right. >> He stumbles badly right at the end. That's a fail. The trooper has enough probable cause to make the arrest. But even a sober person who's out of shape can trip up like that. That's why the field sobriety test also includes the one leg stand. >> Okay. >> Let me know when you're ready. >> Do you understand the instructions? >> I understand. >> All right. You can go to begin test. >> 1,00 1,002 1,003 1,004 1,005 1006 1007 1008 1009 >> Look closely at his right calf. It's working overtime just to keep him steady. That's not normal. But somehow he's still not falling over. >> 2010 1,234 2015 2016, 20,021,022 1,023 1,024 1,025 1,026. >> I can't. My balance is off. All right. I >> Now you can sec Yeah. I'd love to see it. >> Go ahead. >> Put your hands behind your back. >> Are you serious right now? >> Yes, sir. You're under arrest for robbery people. Put your palms together. >> Damn. He was almost there. Just two more seconds and he would have passed. >> Bring your arms back. Do you need another set? >> What' you say? >> Do you need two sets on? >> No, I don't. >> You don't? >> I don't. >> Take your watch off and put in your pocket for me. >> This is a Rolex. >> All right. Put it in your pocket. I don't want any possession of your Rolex. fall together. >> Up until now, Officer Shields had denied drinking, but right at the end, it finally slipped out. >> So, it's your girlfriend? >> Yeah. >> She been drinking, too? >> No. >> Just you? >> Yep. >> All right. >> Well, I haven't been drinking, but >> my friend's been drinking. I confused this question. >> I have not whatsoever. >> All right. Is this too tight? No. All right. >> Shields later pleaded not guilty to the charge. In the end, it's simple. Badge or not, the law doesn't bend. Four cops, four stories, and one truth that never changes. When the lights flash behind you, you answer for what you've done.
