So, you can come on out. >> Oh, you need to get out of the car? What now? >> I need you to step out. >> Oh. >> All right. We'll come back to my car real quick, all right? So, you don't have any weapons on you or anything like that, right? >> No, no, no. >> Okay, I'm just going to pat you down real quick before you get in the back seat of my car. I just want to put your hands up on the bar right here for me. Appreciate it. >> I wasn't in charge. >> Come on over here. >> I wasn't in charge, so I say >> You were in charge? >> No, I wasn't in charge, so I go to bring some people. I'm Christian, I'm a >> Okay. >> I I'm I'm a >> Is there Is there any reason for the speed and the aggressive driving maneuver you made? >> No, I You know I'm not driving like the high speed. Just I was I was passing like some >> You were aggressively passing somebody in a no pass >> passed I passed somebody, yes. That's why that's why >> was a no passing zone, does that make sense? >> Huh? >> You can't pass there. >> Oh, here? I'm so sorry. >> a double solid line. You can't pass, okay? >> Yeah. >> I want you to step back here for me. I'll back here for me. You're not under arrest. I'm just put I'm just putting you in my back seat, okay? >> So, what happened? >> I'm going to have you step in my back seat real quick, okay? I'm just detaining you for the traffic stop. So, come on back here for me, okay? >> No, let me let me ask you >> Come on. Come on. We'll talk. We're going to talk through the window. You're not under arrest, okay? >> So, why why you want to take me >> Get in the back seat, man. >> No, but >> Here's where the situation becomes legally and practically important. The deputy has explained the reason for the stop. The driver passed another vehicle in what the deputy identifies as a no passing zone marked by a double solid line. The driver acknowledges that he passed and apologizes. At this point, the interaction could potentially remain a traffic investigation, but the deputy then directs him into the back seat while repeatedly emphasizing that he is not under arrest. That distinction matters. A person can be temporarily detained during a traffic investigation without being formally arrested. But cooperation becomes crucial once an officer gives lawful commands during that detention. The driver keeps focusing on his documents and insists he needs to retrieve them. From his perspective, that may seem like a simple request. From the deputy's perspective, however, allowing him to move around the vehicle could create a safety concern. The tension is now building around control of the scene. Would you have simply followed the instructions and dealt with the documents afterward? >> No. >> No, no, I'm not going somewhere. I'm not going somewhere. No. >> No. >> I'm not going somewhere. >> Stop. >> No. >> I'm not going somewhere. >> 21 start me a second degree. He's not complying. >> I'm not going somewhere. >> Put your hands behind your back. Put your hands behind your back. >> just say you ask. Let me take Let me take my No, let me Okay. Okay. >> Turn around. >> No, let me >> Put your hands behind your back. >> Let me take my my my >> No. >> No. >> No. >> Let me take my document. >> No. >> My document. >> behind your back. >> No, my document. Don't worry. >> Put your hands behind your back. >> Let me take Let me take my document. Just Take me like that. >> No. No. >> No, my document, please. >> Stay here. >> I'm not going somewhere. I'm not going somewhere. >> Put your hands behind your back. >> No, I'm not going somewhere. >> Put your hands behind your back. >> No, I say I'm not going somewhere. I'm not going somewhere. I'm not I'm not >> violent. Just stop. >> No, let me take my my my document. >> No. >> No, it's not Just license. >> No. >> Let me take my document. You know. >> No. No. >> I'm not leaving my document. >> No. Come on. >> No, I'm not leaving my document. No. I'm not going >> Get on the ground. >> No, I'm not going somewhere. >> Get on the ground. >> No, I'm not going somewhere. No. >> Hey. >> No. >> I'm going to tase you, dude. >> No. No. >> Get down. Get on the ground. >> you got it. >> Get on the ground. >> Let me take my document. >> No. Get on the ground. >> Let me take my >> Get on the ground. >> You got it. What he say? Get out of the car. You got it. >> Get over here. >> Let me take my >> No. Get over here. >> My document. >> Dude. >> No. Let me take my document. >> No. >> Let me take my document. >> Get out of the car. >> No. Hi. Okay. Dude. >> Get your hand out of the car. >> No, dude. That No, dude. That >> Get your hand out of the car. >> You got it. No. No, dude. >> Get on the ground. >> No, you make it illegal. Let me take my document. You know. You make it illegal. No. >> 21, you need to step it up. >> Let me take my document. >> Come on. >> No, let me take my document. >> Let me take I know. So, let me take my document. >> Get back. >> Let me take my document. >> No. >> Okay, take my document. Give me Give me me my wallet. >> Get No. >> Why? >> Because I'm telling you no. >> Why? >> I already gave you multiple commands to get in the backseat of my car and put your hands behind your back cuz you have to comply with law enforcement. >> You You You say I'm speeding. So, it's okay. When you give me ticket, it's okay. I have a document. So, why you taking me out? >> Put your hands behind your back. >> No, I'm asking why you taking me out. >> Put your hands behind your back. >> No. No. It's illegal. >> It's not illegal. >> Wait. The animal traffic police. >> And now we hit the moment where this stops looking like an ordinary traffic stop. The deputy has repeatedly ordered the driver to get down. And the driver continues saying he needs his documents. Then comes the warning that a taser will be used if he doesn't comply. Notice what is driving this escalation. Neither side appears to be talking about the original traffic violation anymore. The argument has shifted almost entirely to compliance. The deputy believes the driver is refusing lawful commands, while the driver seems convinced that the entire detention is unnecessary because he was only stopped for speeding or an improper pass. That disconnect is exactly how relatively routine encounters can become dangerous. The more the driver refuses, the more force the deputy says may be necessary, and the more force is threatened, the more resistant the driver becomes. It's a cycle that can escalate incredibly quickly. The important question for viewers is this: At what point should the driver have stopped arguing and simply complied? >> Yes, come on. Come on. Come on here, please. >> Yeah. Why? >> No, you're staying here. >> No. No, you make it illegal. >> You're not going anywhere. >> No, this is illegal. I'm not going somewhere. I'm not leaving my I'm not leaving my car. Just I say I need to check my wallet. We have a some document. No. Why you taking me some no no my my wallet? Come on, we not speak English. You have a question. I'm not going somewhere. I'm not leaving my car. >> jail now. >> Why? >> Because you're resisting. >> Resisting, why? No, I'm not resisting. Just I told you let me take my wallet because I have No, I'm not going >> That's not how this works. You're not in charge here. You're being pulled over. You're not in charge. >> Why you taking me? I told you let me take my my document. I'm not I'm not I'm not >> No, you need to comply with law enforcement. >> No, I'm not force. >> Yes. >> I'm not force. Never force. Never force you. Never force you. >> All right, just keep you in the car. >> Never force you. Never force you. Just you you you taking me like this one, I know. >> Put your hands out of your pockets. >> No, no. I'm not Why? >> Put your hands behind your back. >> No, you force me. >> Put your hands behind your back. Just like I've asked you multiple times. >> Listen to me. >> Put your hands behind your back. >> Listen to him. >> Listen to me. Put your hands behind your back. Behind your back. >> Okay, let listen to me. >> Thank you. Put your hands behind your back. Yeah, behind your back. >> Let me tell you. >> Yeah, behind your back. Yeah, behind your back. >> So, what what you >> Put your hands behind your back, dude. >> Listen to the de >> Listen to the deputy. >> This exchange gives us one of the clearest explanations of the deputy's position. The driver keeps asking why he's being taken into custody and repeatedly argues that he should be allowed to retrieve his wallet or documents. But the deputy explains that the issue is no longer simply the original driving violation. According to the deputy, the repeated refusal to follow commands is now the reason for the arrest. That's a major turning point. Whether every command was legally justified is a question that would ultimately depend on the specific circumstances and applicable law, but the body cam clearly shows that the deputy repeatedly communicated what he wanted the driver to do. Meanwhile, the driver repeatedly insisted that he wasn't resisting and wanted access to his belongings. This is where viewers can reasonably disagree about how the encounter unfolded. Was the driver simply confused and trying to protect his documents, or did his continued refusal make the situation much worse? Either way, the original traffic offense has now become the least dramatic part of the encounter. >> Come on. >> Let's just listen. >> No. >> Going in the car. Going in the car. >> Stop. >> Okay. All right, give me >> Listen. >> Okay, all right, I'm listening. Okay. >> I said We have all my documents here in my car. I need to check in my documents. >> We'll check it out. >> Yes, in my wallet. >> You need to listen. >> I don't have anything. I'm a citizen. I'm a pastor. So, why you talking to me like that? You like you legal. >> No, but he has a reason to. All right. >> Why you taking my key? >> Folks, you're under arrest right now. >> Listen, I do what? >> What's that? >> I do what? >> I don't know, sir. I'm here to help. >> Yes, sir. Come on the car. >> Stay in your car. >> Yes, sir. Come on the car. Yes, come on the car, please. >> Stay in your car. >> Please stay there. We'll We'll help you out. >> Yes, 247, come on. >> Step in the backseat. >> Head on in. Head on in. >> Yes. >> We'll get you Get inside the car, dude. >> You You You respect that I keep >> Get in the car or we're going to make you get in the car. >> Yes, you respected my my my my my my person. I told you let me take my wallet. When I I say I speeding. >> 21 units to the car. >> What am I asking you to do this? >> Yes, he say I'm speeding. >> We're telling you to do this. >> Yes. >> Then we're going to make you do it. >> Yes. >> We get in the car. >> You can use force. >> Please stop resisting. >> I'm not resisting. >> Please, yes you are. >> Yes and no. No, yes, I swear to God. >> Please. >> I'm not doing anything. >> Sit in the car. >> Let me Let me tell you. >> Sit in the car. >> You going to listen to me? Can you listen to me, please? >> When you get in the car, we will, yeah. >> No, can you listen to me, please? Can I say? This is my my my my Look at My insurance is my my my My license is there. >> We will figure it out. >> My My >> You're not You're okay. We standing here is taking longer. >> Yeah, yes. >> You want to stand there all day, that's not going to happen. So, we're going to have to >> No, I I want to charge you, please. >> Okay, we're just going to pull you in the car cuz you don't want to get in. >> No. >> Yep. Okay, so now you want to get in. >> Thank you. Can you Can I say Can I >> After several minutes of commands, arguments, and physical resistance, the driver finally gets into the patrol vehicle. And this is an important transition because we now get the deputy's account of exactly what happened from his perspective. According to the deputy, the driver initially complied with getting out of the vehicle, but then refused to enter the backseat. The driver repeatedly said he needed his wallet or documents, and when the deputy attempted to place him in handcuffs, the driver moved toward the front of his vehicle and reached into the driver's area. That detail is significant because the deputy describes having the Taser pointed at him before ultimately grabbing the driver's arm and pulling him away from the vehicle. The deputy says he then pushed him back and held him until another deputy arrived. This explanation doesn't independently prove every allegation, but it gives important context to the force we just watched. Now we're hearing the officer explain why he believed escalation was necessary. >> Stopped him cuz I stopped him see passing Somebody in a no passing zone. Like super aggressive pass. Flip around on him, immediately pulls over. Oh yeah, thank you. >> Anything else you got for me? >> No, I I put this in the ground cuz that's when I told him to get in the back of my car and he was refusing. I thought I knew him. >> I like that little pouch thing you have. >> It's nice. You just dump it down and throw all your crap in there? >> That thing is cool. Where did the uh >> All right. I'm going to get a case on this guy. >> All right, thanks. >> Hey Sarge. So, I stopped this guy passing in a no passing zone right here. Super aggressive pass. I flip out and around on him on 65th second. He stops right away. Um I pulled him out of the car. >> This plate? >> Yeah, yeah, this one right here. Um I asked him to get out of the car, just cuz possible intox. I don't know what he's got going on. Just weird driving driving behavior. He complies. We walk back. And I'm like, "Hey, I'm just going to put you in the back seat of my car. Um, you're just going to hang out with me. You're not under arrest or anything like that." And he's like, "No, I'm not getting in the back of your car. I'm not going to do that for you." I'm like, "Well, I'm telling you to get back there. You need to get back there." Um, and then he's trying to pull away from me. He says he wants to go back to the car to grab documents. I'm telling him, "No." Um, I go to put handcuffs on him and then he runs up to the front of his car and he's reaching in the driver's seat to grab it. So, I grab his other Well, I had my I had him at taser point in front of the car. He ran around the other side. I put my taser back. Grabbed his arm to pull it out of the driver's seat. And then, um, that's where I got him off the car. I just pushed him back by his chest and I held him here until Demoine got here. >> Okay. >> Yeah. Uh, he said he was trying to pull his wallet out of his car. I haven't looked in there yet. I asked if he had any I asked him if he had any weapons on him. He was like, "Oh, no, no, no, no, no. I don't have any." All right. All right. I mean, I searched him since he's under arrest for, you know, parents. And I didn't find anything on his person, so. >> Okay. I want to do a inventory work. >> Yeah. >> So. All right. What's his name? >> Uh. >> Now, the scene shifts from confrontation to documentation, and that change tells us a lot about what happens after an arrest. The deputy explains that the driver was being arrested for interference and says he searched him, but did not find anything on his person. Officers then discuss conducting an inventory of the vehicle, which is a separate process from simply searching someone because they're curious about what's inside. From there, the focus moves toward documenting the driver's condition. Officers photograph him and ask whether he is injured, with the driver identifying pain around one area. This kind of documentation can become important after a physical arrest because officers need a record of visible injuries or complaints. The driver then starts asking about his vehicle, insurance, belongings, and where the car is going. But at this point, the arrest process is already moving forward. The argument that started over a traffic maneuver has now resulted in handcuffs, an impounded vehicle, and an official criminal charge. >> I think he wants to talk to you if you want to I will open the window for you. >> You need anything at all for me? >> No. >> You're good to get out of here if you want to. >> Yeah, I know. I was sitting here. I was like, yeah, I I just had like two more sentences in my report. I was like, I'll just sit here. >> Well, thanks for coming out. I appreciate it. >> No, I was I was close. Yeah, I came out. I'm like, Wait, what? Oh, [ __ ] I'm >> Is this property, right? >> Yep. Uh I got a citation. I got to fill out all this stuff as well. >> Hey, Frank. I got to snap pictures of you. Or also, we got to get on the side of the road, okay? Just in case any injuries show up or anything like that. Do you feel like you're hurt anywhere? >> Yeah. >> Where at? Right there? Do you feel like it's just like a bruise or you feel like you're cut? >> I think so. You hit my foot. >> Okay. >> Yeah. >> All right. You just want to hold your hands out like this for me, okay? Hold them closer here for me. Like that. There you go. Perfect. Now flip them like this. So, you said it hurts right here? Good. Can you pull that sleeve up for me? Okay. Do you have pain anywhere else in your body, anything like that? >> Just pain there. >> Just Just right there. Okay. And I'm going to get a picture of your face and then the sides of your face, okay? And I'm going to want it on me. Do you have any questions for me at all, Frank? >> Yeah, my question is that like that that vehicle, where is that vehicle? >> Uh I'll print off a sheet with all the information for the tow company and it'll go with your property, okay? So, have their phone number and their address where your car went. >> So, why are we taking the insurance in the for my insurance being you make like more trouble to make more money and I had my brother that we we renting car when we was together. >> I'm not going to argue with that. What's your fear about that, okay? >> That's just that I I ask you. >> Your vehicle got impounded. I mean, that's set and final. We're not going to argue. Okay? >> So, the the key vehicle is it there? >> What was that? >> The key vehicle. >> The key to the vehicle will be with the vehicle. Okay? >> So, let's break down what we know from this footage. The encounter began after the deputy says he witnessed the driver cross a double yellow line and aggressively pass another vehicle. The driver initially cooperated with the traffic stop, but the situation escalated after the deputy instructed him to sit in the back of the patrol vehicle. The driver repeatedly resisted those instructions while insisting that he needed to retrieve his wallet and documents. The deputy ultimately used physical force and threatened a Taser before the driver was secured. Officers later documented the driver's condition, discussed his vehicle being impounded, and confirmed that he would be booked into the Polk County jail on a charge of interference with official acts. The footage does not establish a courtroom verdict or final sentence, so we won't pretend it does. But it does show how quickly a traffic stop can escalate when communication breaks down and neither side backs away. The bigger question is whether this entire situation could have ended differently if the driver had simply complied at the beginning.
