second y'all see it right just grab the number listen I've been through this too many damn times I'm not trying to deal with this any more than I have to the male persisted in being argumentative further escalating the situation oh you calling them yes ma'am oh okay well that works makes it easier then going to call what's your badge number 056 all right I'll be back man I talk man I talk to the acting Corporal to the acting Corporal yes because we don't have an acting corporate all we have is a sergeant and an acting corpor okay I am the acting corporal not to my Shi customer call you're talking about one of your yes sir that's what I'm talking about care who you so may I or may I not call whoever you need to call Turner can you please talk to them they think I stole somebody's cell phone I did not and yes ma'am they think I stole somebody's cell phone they're saying I they got it on video and I mean if they got it on video they got it on video but they feel like I'm lying about anything you you are my acting cple you see me work from day in and day out can you just talk to them me sir you don't want to tell me your name you're not going to hear it through this regular talk where you at this is defy money paining with the bib County Sheriff's Office um yes this is yeah what's going on okay so what's going on is Mr Jones just can't grasp the situation that it clearly shows him on video taking someone's cell phone and walking off with it the person whose cell phone he took doesn't want to press charges if he gets the cell phone back but Mr Jones for whatever reason wants to give all these different answers to not the what we're telling them and we keep trying to explain it to them that myself another officer and everyone El security here at the club have all tried to explain to him that you can clearly see him pick the cell phone up off the table after the other person set it down and walk off with it okay so he wants to sit there and say he doesn't have a cell phone on him I'm not saying he's going to have a cell phone on his person but he clearly took the cell phone and if he can't produce the cell phone then he's going to jail he doesn't seem to be able to wrap his head around this okay uh why why am I being called because he wanted to call his acting Corporal to notify somebody that he's in trouble okay and who this Deputy money Penny with the bib County Sheriff's Office and where are y'all at bib County mon Georgia where are y'all at right now we're at the crazy bull downtown he still refused to produce the phone and cooperate with the officers okay uh let let me talk to GJ again he's he's right here I have not touched his cell phone I've told him several times if they if they would like to search me they can search me they will not search me because they feel like I'm going to hi it some type of way I've told them like hey if you want to search me search me right now I have no problem with that they don't want to search me because they feel like I'm just going to hide it some other type of way and then I'm not you know how I work you know how I deal with domestics you know how I deal with everything you you're being serious right now I why would I called you at 12:00 at night 1:00 at night prob 3:00 3:00 at night I mean and say this like dead ass okay well you know I sure um I mean I know what kind of person you are um why they sear that's that's we're not at that point the pro the point is he's been given an opportunity to turn the phone over he doesn't seem to understand that it clearly shows him on video there is without question matter of doubt if I take him to jail he will go to court he will be found guilty because it is clearly on video he just can't get that through his head that the video is like literally it's almost shot like a movie scene that's how clear the video is in this club and where they're at and everything like that there's no one obstructing The View there's nothing it's clear as day him grabbing this person's cell phone and walking off with it okay so where do y'all where where are y'all supposing is at if y'all want search him and look at it or look for it I mean there's there's two other girls are going to go to jail with him because they're they're also with along with him as well so they they either they walked outside are they are they in a car is it supposed to be in a bag is it supposed to be on somebody I don't I don't know where it's supposed to be at he walked off with it and now he doesn't have it you're saying that I'm standing there with it so I told you search me several times I put my hands up I told you search me sear so I mean I mean what else do what else do you want I told you to search me see several times I know the law you can't tell me anything you seem to think because you don't have this phone on you you didn't steal it and that's not the case all right bro I don't I don't know you what fine we're we're done turn stand up turn around stand stand up and turn around no take me take me I don't care stand up and turn around give here man Mr John don't even do this stand up come on turn around put your hands behind your back call okay call Lieutenant I don't care because this is some [ __ ] because they don't want to listen to me I need you to stand up and put I'm not because y'all won't even give me a chance under arrest so we need you to do whatever tase me do whatever 5 15 I need more units sent to the crazy B well right now you are resisting arrest so of course I know that my suggestion my suggestion
