on January 1st 2023 Oklahoma County
sheriff's deputies pulled over
19-year-old Jackson Jones of Tennessee
Under Suspicion of impersonating a
police officer
two witnesses came forward during the
incident stating Jones was claiming to
be law enforcement
you have any weapons
and the truck's over there I'm just
going to take out the best and I'm from
Tennessee so why are you wearing the
vest like I said I drove from all the
way from Tennessee but I'm not gonna I'm
not gonna have people call me
when I don't even live in this damn
State okay it's going to piss me off
you're you're a deputy sheriff well I
mean I work at the Sheriff's Office okay
I mean what were you a corrections
officer from the Sheriff's Office okay
why do you wear a vest outside of the
facility
vehicle or is this your personal vehicle
this is from Ikea okay
it's just a little odd because whenever
I worked in the jail
I took my crap off especially if I was
taking a long drive from Tennessee
if that's the same thing I have been
pulling up for so many times on
Tennessee and Arkansas right okay they
know I I told them everything that might
not be true but hold on 4-2 wearing this
stuff I mean like it every time I come
up here I mean like they don't all they
say is it's just odd I never see it
right well I mean like well guess what
yeah I like wearing it just like in
Tennessee I've got four little fours
guess what yeah I'm not saying it's
against the law or anything it's just
and I think the dad had took it off and
I've had it set right here before and
they're like and I get I get yelled at
four there's like you know it's kind of
weird that you got your belt and your
belt you got any kind of employment
identification dude they don't give me
that when you work at the deal really
you don't have like an access card or ID
badge or anything for the facility that
you work at I don't I can show you my
face though
what else is
the whole thing online
oh so my only deal is
there you go yeah are you commissioned
to carry a gun
you're not okay
like you realize we're in the sheriff on
your chest
is basically impersonating law
enforcement is that whether or not
you're carrying a gun
okay but are you commissioned to be
carrying a gun and do you have arrest
power
what do you mean
that's beside the fact you're wearing a
patch that says Sheriff okay that's
impersonating law enforcement I'm
worried all the time at the jail before
though okay well that might be true and
fine within the gel but when you come
out to public you don't have any arrest
Powers you don't you're not commissioned
do you understand I understand that I
don't understand and you got alcohol in
the vehicle well it's not mine well
that's beside the point it's my
girlfriend and I don't drink so it
doesn't it doesn't matter you realize
transporting open container if any of
that's opened or partially uh Missing
but it doesn't matter whose it is if
you're in the vehicle with it you can be
arrested for uh transporting open
container well I mean like I said it's
it's not I literally
she bought it
she lives up there in Luther have you
ever heard the phrase when guys get
hemmed up for drugs in their pockets and
they say these pants aren't mine you
realize
let's stop saying it all right
I'm not from here so all right
thank you
but there's proof right there but like I
told them I just want to take it off
I'll take it that's fine I'd much rather
you just take the sheriff patch off I
mean I could do that
because if you're if you're not
commissioned to be a sheriff's deputy or
a police officer
I am a deputy sheriff yes but I'm trying
to be nice I understand why you got
called
right but if you walk around with
a best carrier on with sheriff on your
chest and you're not sure you might work
for the sheriff's office but you work in
a jail and you're not commissioned
outside of the jail to carry a gun or
have any arrest Powers okay all right
but I told him I'll just take it off
because okay I'm not from here
I'm not trying to cause any problems
okay
this is your command at where you work
at know that you decide to go around in
the public put the vest on with the
sheriff on your chest
so you wear it anyways well I'm tired
you wear it to drive all the way from
Tennessee to Choctaw Oklahoma
I've got four
years and they've let me go they just
don't have to wear okay my biggest issue
is the sheriff on your
yeah
however long it was to get down here
it's not a good interaction for us to
know you that you're wearing your stuff
outside of work
up here with my mom so I could be a cop
up here because she lives up here and
I'm trying I'm trying to be a cop but in
your 19th yeah but they won't let me
they don't I've already put up patients
in but I still got residents down there
in Tennessee obviously right now I got
addressed on there but what were you
going to Oklahoma City for huh what are
you headed to Oklahoma City for
I'm going to 122 Northwest Street what
are you what are you doing
apartment you live there no my mom does
oh okay I was just curious I mean I'm
not trying to cause any trouble man okay
like I told him
I'm just trying to move up here
hopefully if I can I get the money right
now yeah I'm just trying to come see her
for New Year man that's it right
I really don't want did she used to live
in Tennessee or did you move out to
Tennessee or what's the deal on that why
she live here and you live in Tennessee
oh okay so you live in Tennessee where
your dad lives or whatever okay
yeah
hello
right okay
so did you get out of your car or
something here in the parking lot okay I
got out of the car yeah there's a truck
that he looked at me that's all I did I
never I never never said anything like
fall enforcement was or nothing he
looked at me and he was laughing so I
just like to go to his car and I was
like
maybe or something like that that's it
and I just like walked away okay I mean
I don't
that's all I did man you were just in
the driveway and he was just looking at
you I got in my cargo let me go inside
oh he looked at me and then I just went
up
that's all right
and you don't have a gun with you or
anything like that
I can search the car
I mean is that what you said
you asked me about it um
I was just asking if you had a gun on
you no I can search the card you don't
mind if I search the car I don't think
okay cool step on out if you don't mind
there
all right place the vehicle I'll just
check you for make sure you don't have
any guns or nothing
okay
all right
if you wouldn't mind go ahead and take
the best off and just set it in the car
okay
so do you wear this vest carrier on duty
in the jail I mean like I can I usually
wear it under my hood shirt okay
what vehicle was it you
stop to talk to I didn't stop at MLP no
I mean he said that you stopped and
talking you talked to him I mean some in
some truck but then he left out of the
parking lot okay but all I did literally
I went up that's good get the best off
for me
and the only reason I'm having you take
it off because I don't have to worry
about the knives or anything you may
have on you
that's fine I mean I've seen a lot worse
all right if you'll just go sit on the
curb up there
yeah that's fine
okay we'll just check everything out if
everything's good then we'll
we'll go on
foreign

foreign
[Music]
foreign
looked over at him they kind of made eye
contact with me and he started kind of
giggling because the way he was acting
he looked inside of his car like
he was looking for something they've got
in and having traffic they got out and
came over to his truck and was like
what's so funny what are you doing you
know just being shot with ass right and
then he goes well I was making a traffic
stop and you're over here
buddy
and then two more to go and he it was a
pack of six
all right
just all kinds of red flags man
I would not drive from Tennessee one of
the best carry on no or even a duty belt
on it seems like it off I take that [ __ ]
off just I'm tired of being in it I hate
driving from Topgolf to my house with
this [ __ ] dog
the least amount of time that I can
spend in this thing the better and his
vest doesn't even feel like it has any
kind of
Templar or anything in it
I asked him if you were worried at work
he's acted like it would it wouldn't be
a big deal if he wore it at work but
then like okay do you or do you not
yeah it does have a Templar right in
here
that's supposed to be the rear and it's
on the front
yeah it could be
[Music]
yeah
my lieutenant uh so
pretty much he he had to have
attempted to act like law enforcement
like trying to make a traffic stop
but as far as just saying something to
somebody wearing what he's saying or
wearing what he's wearing is I guess not
it's not it's kind of protected type
thing yeah yeah he he hadn't he hadn't
really crossed the law yet
he's walking a fine line yeah that I
mean man
[ __ ] I even went to go buy a patch at
the place on Douglas you got to talk to
top tier yeah and they wanted to verify
law enforcement well who I was I mean
because they don't want to be associated
with someone buying [ __ ] that isn't law
enforcement
he died he checked out he's got no
warrants no want I wonder if he's got
any uh some car checks back to him yeah
supervisor contact that we could talk to
a supervisor
we'll put his
patch back on
I got a picture of his ID and stuff
I mean I got him on video wearing it so
do you like I'm sure
wearing what looks like a dress
beautiful pants yeah
and he says the alcohol is his
girlfriend yeah that's what he told me
to I was like well
even if it's your girlfriends if you're
transporting an open container that's
against the law it doesn't matter whose
it is yeah
I don't want to run the kid I mean
you definitely need a good peace yeah
but I'm not gonna run the kid's life see
if he'll give us a contact number for a
supervisor at work or something
I'm gonna shut this other door
I wouldn't worry about the jailbreak
right now
with the beer car like I said that it's
not in my possession right it is in your
position in your cars by you owning the
vehicle and being in your vehicle and
you hit the city beside you that is
considered in positions
I'm gonna try I mean
we want to talk to a supervisor

information in there like the exact
location where he made contact with you
where he where you initially seen him
and everything and I want to confirm
right now that everything happened in
Oklahoma County right
okay
when when you first seen him he was in
Lincoln County yeah and then he followed
you into Hera yes and made made contact
with you in here yes you know where that
platform is like you're going off 62
like you're going like yeah yeah County
Line Road right there you got that pig
farm
on top of the hill it's uh the Hera
agbarn
on the south side of 62 or yeah okay I
kind of know the area of 62 in pot
County group y'all top that hill and you
start going down the hill there's a
little dirt road that goes to your left
that's where he was sitting on not on
our dark because I live on dirt road it
was on the house right next door on the
dirt road in their driveway cockeyed but
where he made contact with you and he
stated he was law enforcement was at
Sonic at Sonic yeah because he pulled up
right behind me and I was like
first thing ever yeah and when he did
tell me that I was like
yeah and then he told me his partner was
a uh
uh uh
Wellston uh he's out of Wellston and his
uh partner is a highway patrolman
I was like all right yeah put all that
in there and even put on there when
you've seen him turn around and flashing
his headlights at somebody all right
yeah yeah I I haven't found any guns yet
but I haven't done like a thorough
search of his car yet because he had a
gun on the side he did have a gun on his
side you've seen him yeah in a holster
yeah okay and he had handcuffs yeah yeah
I mean just like just like you had one
thing he had was a body Cam and then
right here on his chest right here it
just said sure right that was it I got
pictures of that yeah uh so when we made
contact with him he doesn't have a
firearm on him but that doesn't mean
it's not in the car and then uh he told
me he had let me go because he got a
call that's why he let me go out of
Sonic because he goes well because then
he flipped a yui on someone and was
flashing their life right passed over
the uh Interstate the uh right wing pass
underneath it
he put the yui it was going back towards
you know the Going Back East yeah and so
our classic lights up that car I was
like
and then I got home I just got home
because we're coming back to AutoZone
and get some parts for our car and then
uh to my wife I was like man that's kind
of strange my car was sitting in the
driveway and I wish you would have
called it in way earlier but I'm glad we
got him though and then I was thinking
yeah I was sitting there thinking if
he's Oklahoma County they don't cross
over into Lincoln County and Lincoln
County does not cross over to Oklahoma
County we might go over there to help
them with something exactly but one of
them is going to be there with this is
that because y'all don't station by
yourself it's what's on over in Lincoln
County if you're a comical all right and
that's what cut and then my wife's like
you better call somebody and see what's
going on because that's just very very
strange yeah
and the worst thing that flashes laughs
at me nothing he just got light on my
all right on my bumper man and it just
followed me into town and I was like
it's kind of weird I'm gonna pull in
Sonic to see what man if he's gonna pull
in with me right when he pulled in he
caught his car right in behind mine yeah
right right okay good I'm glad you came
over here told us because that sealed
the deal because we were gonna let him
go oh [ __ ] because prior to that we we
didn't have any like solid uh stuff on
them but thank you for coming back over
here uh if you want to work on that try
to ride as legibly as you can because
I'm not very good fast because I really
possibly I can taking about 30 minutes
you can take your time because my wife I
take it home my wife and I can tell her
and she'll write it down exactly what I
support my word how far is home from
here
yeah is it in Oklahoma County it's in
Lincoln County it's in Lincoln County
it's right on there on the Lincoln in
Oklahoma County High
on the line
let me get your and I'm not I'm telling
you I'm not a very good speller at all
and my wife see how about you can you
rap pretty good
it just needs to be legible just so I
can attach it to the charge packet it
just has to be legible to where I can
make out enough or judge can make out
enough that way you know because I can
tell my wife d-pop by detail and she can
write down perfect because we're not
very good spellers at all but I've got I
don't care about spelling as long as as
long as we can tell what you're saying
yeah that is the biggest deal so just
I'd like you to fill it out right here
and just write as slow as you have to
just to make it to where I can read it
as much as possible all right so I like
playing all right all right sound like
playing
uh signature
all right and then when you're done sign
the bottom all right all right thanks
foreign
foreign
do what
it's evidence yeah
you want you're wanting your phone to go
with you
and your ID
I can bring the cash with you it'll be
booked in
uh but you'll they'll have it like on
your books so if you're there but then
if you end up bonding out or getting out
getting released they'll give you a
check for whatever that amount is
foreign
okay all right we'll get it
uh the only request he has is uh
because he already paid for his meal
I was hoping maybe he can get his money
back because he didn't get his meal
I figured that wouldn't be a huge
that's because I can't really read his
handwriting right after ordering his
name I just wrote down right there okay
and that's the phone number that we
called to get a hold of Jacob
Royce
we have a gun
I don't know
good deal the things we're just like
we're adding up and then that guy pulled
up at just the right time I was like
thank you for coming over here
no no we're gonna impound it
all right
the guy in the SUV says he had a gun
all right I got his wallet
if you spot it just let it lay
foreign
Campbell County High School
what'd you say
huh
I wonder if that's when he applied
it's cash
that might be the change from it
you got 2.24 cents in change and it
would cost five it costs uh
there's another bottle
and who's been living in this car
I did see feminine products
foreign
that collectors
I mean that's not to say he didn't
take it off
all right
foreign
on the ground
foreign
County and that's why I came over here
17 years
yeah
so I I'll have a pretty good idea if
he's been in or around the county in the
West
should recognize him
unless he just happens to be one of
those reserves that wasn't very active
because I also I
was gonna have
to deal with right and to not have any
kind of formal
identification for
for the agency
and checked everything on that okay
thank you
all right

they're working on getting your money
from McDonald's did you want the cash
that was in the car
you want to leave it in the car
yeah it's getting impacted Okay so

ownership
