If you're going to detain an American citizen walking down the road, then you need to find another line of work. >> At this moment, you are being detained. >> Cops love when you record them while they're performing their duties, cuz they appreciate the transparency. >> If you don't want to get involved, find one of these officers. You heard what I said. >> Okay, maybe they're allergic to transparency. All right, within this video, I've got two different police interactions to show you. In this first one, LaShay is the woman recording, and she's the mother of the suspect's child. The suspect is being dog-piled by the Fort Wayne Police Department right here. She was recording from in front of her home on the 300 block of Butler Street. Apparently, before I play this, what happened was around 12:26 a.m. on Saturday, September 12th, uh FWPD officer saw a blue SUV on Lafayette Street flickering its headlights, then driving with them off, according to the officer. The officer tried to stop it. Police say the SUV ran a red light, kept going, and then stopped suddenly. The driver, 45-year-old Sean Kabisti, put the SUV in reverse, got out, and ran. That's when the unoccupied SUV rolled backward into the patrol car. Officers chased him on foot to Butler Street near LaShay's house, and that's where this viral video starts. Several officers basically are dog-piling a guy for driving without his headlights. But, pay close attention to what one of the officers says to LaShay as she tries to exercise her constitutionally protected rights to record public servants while they perform their duties. >> PUT [ __ ] [ __ ] HANDS ON YOUR BACK. WE'RE [ __ ] ROLLING, [ __ ] Shut the [ __ ] up. Give me your [ __ ] hands. It's part of that sheet. If you don't want to get involved, you might want to [ __ ] disappear. You heard what I said. >> He just ran. >> All right, I saw you. I just followed you in my car. I just said that was perfect. He ran the street, the alley, and I just followed him. >> Not a bank robber, not a mass shooter, wasn't harming anybody, threatening to harm anybody, damaging property, stealing property. He's just driving with his headlights off. >> What do you need an ambulance for, big guy? What? Well, well, you ran from us. You ran from us. You ran from us. You ran from us for what? For what? Cuz you're a little [ __ ] You just ran from us. This is what happened. This is what >> [ __ ] [ __ ] listen. You lucky you didn't get more. >> Are y'all recording this, man? >> [ __ ] yeah. >> Just acting like a bunch of badged uniform thugs. But back to the threat of the woman recording police abuse of power. >> This part of that sheet. >> If you don't want to get involved, you might want to [ __ ] disappear. >> You don't want to get involved, you might want to effing disappear. >> You heard what I said. >> This guy's trying to use his power and his authority to threaten somebody into being scared of exercising their rights. According to the police affidavit version, officers gave commands to stop. On the ground, Kubitski would not show his hands or put them behind his back. Pepper spray didn't work. Officers then used physical strikes to get control of his arms. Three officers reported minor injuries. Kubitski was taken to the nearest hospital where he was cleared medically, then to Allen County Jail. According to one report from the department, two officers are on restricted duty while Internal Affairs investigates. Chief P.J. Smith said that was for the best interest of the public and our department. Smith has publicly said that people can record police and that the department {quote} will never tell people they cannot record. He also said Internal Affairs is looking at the disappear comment and the use of force seen in the video. According to one news report, he doesn't have unilateral firing power. He can suspend an officer up to five days. Anything harsher goes to the civilian board of of after due process. My bet is nothing's going to happen to these cops and they're going to get away with attempting to chill First Amendment rights. Okay, today we're in Fort Smith, Arkansas. FedEx staff is freaking out over a man with a camera and then calls the cops. Weak-minded female officer Strong arrives to tell the man that he's being detained. Remember, unalienable rights constitutionally protected rights cannot be legitimately trampled because officers get a call. Let's go ahead and take this from the top and make some comments along the way. >> Am I being detained? >> Huh? >> Am I being detained? >> Well, we're getting the >> No, I just want to know the question. >> Yes, yes, you are being detained. >> For what crime? >> Uh detained at this point. >> For what crime? >> Cuz we are >> Okay, go talk to the RP. Go talk to the RP and find out. >> talk or do you want to talk? >> Um I'm just telling you I'm not a D. Okay. >> You asked me a question. >> Okay. >> Okay. We're getting calls from businesses. >> I heard them. >> Okay. For you taking pictures >> I am taking pictures. >> videotaping them and all that kind of >> Absolutely. >> We're getting We've gotten numerous complaints from a number of businesses. This is the second business you've been up here at. >> It's not my problem. >> Okay, well, if we keep getting calls for this, yes, it is. >> How How's it illegal activity a problem? >> a supervisor coming down here and you can chat with him. >> All right. Is there a reason why you don't want to identify yourself? >> Absolutely. >> Okay, what is that reason? >> Uh I don't answer questions. >> You just asked him. >> Yes. >> Okay. Well, like I said, we've got a supervisor coming down here. Here, so you can talk to him. >> So, am I Am I being detained? >> Yes. >> And Tell me what crime >> to you >> No, you haven't given me a You haven't given me an ICA. >> I'm not going to sit here and have a a argument with you. >> No, just >> I've got a supervisor coming down here. >> You have an ICA that I violated. >> Again, sir, I'm not going to sit here and get into a a argument with >> So, you have no reason to >> There you go. Once again, I'm not going to get into an argument with you because I have no logical, reasonable, morally based argument. They always do that. >> crime has You're being detained. >> for >> Okay. Well, we're asking you to provide your name. You're not providing your name. >> have to. >> Okay. All right. Well, I'll >> I have not committed a crime. >> Like I said, we'll have We're have We've got a supervisor coming down here. He can um We'll have chat with him. >> Fort Smith, Arkansas Police Department. Officer Strong already said that he was detained, but he walked away. That's interesting. >> I still don't know what crime I'm detained for. >> Sir, you're being detained until we can determine that no crime has been committed. >> So, I'm being detained for nothing until you can make something up. >> I have the right to detain you until I'm done with my investigation and I find out that there's no crime committed or there has been a crime. >> You want to say that again? >> Yes. I said, you are being detained and I have the right to detain you until I determine that no crime has been committed. >> That's not how it works. You have to suspect that a crime has been committed before you can initiate the detention. You can't detain somebody till you figure out if there has been a crime. >> You know Arkansas 12-21-106? >> Sir, I'm not getting into >> I'm just asking if you know it or not. >> Again, I'm not going to get into >> Nothing [snorts] legal about it. It's a yes or no question. >> All right. You don't want to answer my questions. I told you the reason why you're being detained and we'll leave it at that. >> Okay. >> But, it's your okay. >> Nope. Nope. >> She does not like to be recorded. She doesn't like to be called out. She doesn't like to be challenged. >> You don't think that's fair law 12-21-106? Cops winning. You're trying to make something up. So, do you have reasonable articulable suspicion yet? >> Like I said, >> No, there's yes yes It's either yes or no. >> But, like I said, I'm legally able to detain you until I can determine if there's >> You've had me detained for over 20 minutes. >> crime has been committed and you are the blood below that name. >> Oh, if a crime has been committed, yes. >> Huh? If a crime has been committed, yes. But, walking him down the side of the road is not a crime. And you can't make it a crime. Oh, there's your supervisor. Let's go talk to him. >> Wait, just hang tight right here. Just hang tight right here. >> You're not going to block my own traffic. >> not need to go up to my supervisor. Yes, I do. He will come here and talk to you when he's ready to talk to you. Okay? >> So, you >> You're not going to walk up on my supervisor. >> I I I just walked up on you. >> here when to talk to you. >> I just walked up on you and there was nothing nothing happened. >> Again. And you didn't walk up to me, I walked up to you. You're not going to walk up to my supervisor until he's ready to talk to you. Okay? >> I'm going to go and take a picture of this guy, though. Hi, kitty. Ooh, a baby lion. Ooh. Look at you there. Hi, kitty, kitty. Hi, kitty. Hi, kitty, kitty. Oh, hi, kitty, kitty. >> [snorts] >> Hi, pretty kitty. >> Sir, you need to stay off their [clears throat] property. >> I'm not on Look, look right here. >> This is the driveway. >> does not fit part of the driveway. >> This driveway is the street. This driveway >> Look right there. See that blue marking? That's you telling me stuff. I hear you banging, listening. >> Sir, [snorts] we need to hang tight here, okay? >> to go right over here and take a picture of this man. >> you to hang tight. Okay? I need you to hang tight. >> What you need and what you get aren't always the same. >> You're going to. Okay? >> You heard that uh song it's uh What get what get what? And sometimes you just might find Yeah, but I You work for me at this point. I haven't committed a crime and you have no authority over me until I commit a crime. >> Yes, I did. >> don't. >> Yes, I did. >> If I haven't committed a crime, you can't tell me jack crap. >> [clears throat] >> I have a legal right to ask to see you. >> Well, past the 20-minute mark now. Miss Officer Strong here, weak-minded Officer Strong, actually believes she has authority over people even if she doesn't suspect that they've committed a crime. That's the cop mentality. It's not just relegated to Officer Strong. All cops believe that. All cops believe that they have the right to claim your time, which is your life, and detain you for any reason whether they have a crime or not. >> Reasonable amount of time. Reasonable amount of time. >> Reasonable. >> There's a woman in the corner holding her until you guys get there. >> Reasonable articulable suspicion. Which you can't provide. >> Can I have your right on that one? >> You guys just think you can do whatever the hell you want to do, don't you? >> There's a car by the >> You can't. >> There's a woman in this house that she's holding her until you guys get there. >> A lot of applause to you, King. >> Okay. >> Okay, does that mean you don't care? >> No. >> It means you don't >> this job if I didn't care. >> You're right. If you're going to detain an American citizen walking down the road, then you need to find another line of work. >> At this moment, you are being detained. >> That's fine. >> Okay. >> For a constitutionally protected activity. >> Okay. >> Which you cannot criminalize. >> Okay. >> [snorts] >> I've been detained here for over 30, almost 30 minutes with no reasonable articulable suspicion of a crime being committed. >> I'll apologize for that. I can only get here so fast now. >> Well, you know, What What do you even need to be here? They should have known the law. >> Well, >> The law specifically says I can be on the side of the road taking pictures. >> It doesn't say you can be out here on the road. >> I've been detained here for over 30, almost 30 minutes with no reasonable articulable suspicion of a crime being committed. >> I'll apologize for that. I can only get here so fast now. >> Well, you know, What What do you even need to be here? They should have known the law. The law specifically says I can be on the side of the road taking pictures. >> It doesn't say you can be out here on the road. Okay? >> Actually, it's going to be a white truck in a red car for your car. >> Sure. >> She's recording. She's recording, and she's recording. >> Okay. >> Unfortunately, I left my >> That's fine. We got plenty of We We plenty of body cams. >> Yeah. >> So, this place over here is I guess. >> They can call all they want. >> Right. Right. And I agree to that, okay? But they said you were on their property. >> Nope. I got it on video. >> Yeah. I Well, I don't, okay? I don't have that. All we got is what they're saying, okay? They said that you were on their property looking in the car and stuff. And again, sir, I don't know that. I'm All I can do is what they called. >> I understand. >> So, then I guess this place called. >> They just told me they didn't call. >> [snorts] >> Somebody's called. I know >> I know they called in 15 45 20. Somebody down that way called. >> Maybe Maybe that's the one that called. >> These guys were just standing there talking to me and laughing at me. >> Well, maybe that's the one that called, okay? Cuz I I don't have the addresses. I can't even see them from here. Um but anyways, these folks called. They said you were on the property. >> Okay. >> Come in as a suspicious person, okay? >> Okay. >> So, we're coming out here. That's what we're out here on. They're investigating that. Um obviously, that's why you're being held here, okay? But you're standing out here on the property for a little while. >> That's correct. >> You're not violating anything in our presence in our presence, okay? So, all we're doing, we're going to take a report for them. And then if they want to follow up with this, they can follow up with it. >> Okay. >> And you're free to go. >> All right. Thank you very much. >> Good luck. >> Have a great day. >> You too. >> People like Officer Strong are why police departments get sued. This is why cops have qualified immunity because law enforcement departments know that they're hiring low IQ, zero morality individuals. And it's just a matter of time before they cause the city a lawsuit. Unless a cop reasonably suspects that the person is committing a crime, which by the way, photography in public is not a crime. It's a constitutionally protected action. Unless they know that they have reasonable articulable suspicion that you have committed a crime, they cannot detain you. They can't detain you waiting for enough information to convince them that you have committed a crime. They have to suspect that you've committed it in the first place.
