For what reason? >> Cuz I'm going to ask you to step out. >> For what reason do I got to step out of the car? >> Cuz I'm going to ask you to. >> Is there a reason I should step out of the car? >> Yes, that's Supreme Court case law. >> What What What Which law is that, sir? >> Pennsylvania versus Mimbs.

It's Pennsylvania >> But why do I have to step out of my vehicle? >> to go to jail. >> Police stopped a man claiming he was not wearing his seatbelt, even though he insisted he had been fully compliant and argued that the officer had no factual basis for the allegation. Calm but firm, he repeatedly questioned the legality of the stop, demanded an explanation for the officer's suspicions, and objected to any attempt to expand the investigation without evidence of criminal wrongdoing. When officers ordered him out of the vehicle and continued applying pressure, the man asserted his constitutional rights, refused consent to any search, and repeatedly emphasized that he had committed no crime. Despite this, officers escalated the encounter by conducting what he believed to be an unlawful search of his vehicle. Ultimately, when they were unable to uncover evidence of any criminal offense, the officers issued a vague citation to justify the stop and quickly left the scene. >> What's your name and badge number? >> Me? >> Yeah, what's your name and badge number? >> Sergeant Wells. >> How you doing, Sarge? >> I'm good. How are you? >> I'm doing all right. I'm just being I'm just recording for your safety and my but your officer did >> record yourself, but that's fine. >> But I'm allowed to do that.

He know that. He been following me for the longest. >> Okay.

I don't You ain't really been a-holing nothing, but he the one that should be not be an officer by the law no more, cuz I am a law-abiding citizen. And he thought he uh he probably ran my name. He's been following me the whole way down Military Trail. Was not speeding, I had my seatbelt on. He pulled me over. And lied deliberately. He wouldn't even tell me initially why he pulled me over. >> I can't speak for them. I speak for myself. >> Yeah. >> he just let me out of the car. The sergeant right there didn't even tell him why.
