Do do any one of you know what the definition of a crime is? Can you even tell me that? >> Okay, somebody that's not the reason >> No, no, I'm asking you a question, sir. You have to answer my question. Hey, rein it in, dude. What is the definition of a crime? >> There's kids in the area. >> There was no kids in the area. >> Okay, when I pulled up there was kids walking down the sidewalk headed to school. So, there was kids in the area. >> Police approached a man who was out jogging after receiving a vague complaint about his allegedly suspicious behavior and possession of a legal self-defense tool. When the man explained that he carried the item solely for protection, officers continued to pressure him despite having no evidence of any criminal activity. Remaining calm, he challenged the accusations, repeatedly asked for the legal basis of the stop, and questioned the officers' unfounded suspicions. Rather than investigating the incidents he had reported, the officers attempted to portray his lawful possession of a self-defense tool and his presence in the neighborhood as suspicious. Ultimately, when the original allegations could not be substantiated, the officers had no choice but to end the encounter and quickly leave the scene. >> Hey, what's up? I'm good. >> Reason I'm talking to you is somebody called in and saying that you were kind of being a little suspicious out here and there was kids in the area walking and >> Being Jogging is being suspicious? >> No, that's why I'm I'm I see >> Oh, that's what they were saying. >> That's what they were saying. >> Yeah, so this >> They said it looked suspicious because you were standing by the mailboxes and they said that you had like a hunting knife on you and that there was kids in the area and they were concerned. That's why they were >> Uh, I don't I don't believe anybody would say that because none of that even happened. You're manipulating me. Yeah, you are. You're trying to manipulate me. I never stood [clears throat] by any mailbox. There's no kids out here. So >> I said that's what they >> No, you don't get it, dude. You're manipulating me. You're trying to manipulate me. Let me catch my breath. I've been jogging. Because there was I was never standing by a mailbox and there's no kids out here. So, why would anybody call? Why would anybody call and say that? >> You can get a hold of our dispatch and you can you can request the call record if you want. And you can see that somebody called and they said that male subject black sweatshirt, black hat, hot knife on the side, standing by the mail boxes, kids in the area, suspicious. >> So what what how how is that suspicious? >> I don't know. >> I I have I >> I'm not the one calling in about it. I'm just being in the area, so so I'm just making contact with you to see if everything's okay. >> Yeah, of course it's okay. Like I I mean if anything wasn't okay, then I I might have called you or whatever, but you know, I people need to stop calling the police. I like if I I'm suspicious, why don't they come up and ask me? Come up and ask me what's your name? Where do you live? What are you doing? >> disagree with you. >> Yeah. >> All I'm just saying is that's why I'm here, so I'm here to grab your buggy or something. >> All right, we'll see. I have a right to carry a knife on me because I usually don't do that. There's a house right here that every day every day I I go jogging by there and these dogs attack me. They try to bite me, so I have a knife on me to defend myself. I even talked to them. I told them, I said, "Hey, every day." I said, "Take care of your dogs. Take care of your dogs." >> So did I tell you that it's wrong for you to carry a knife? Did I tell you you can't? I never once said that it's not or you can't or it's against the law. I never said that. >> Well, so >> the way you're explaining it to me cuz you have the right to carry a knife, so I don't >> Well, you're you're taking the side of the person that that called. Yeah, you are. >> I'm not. >> Yeah, you are. You're taking the side >> Go home and review your video and you'll see that I never once took the side of the caller. I just told you the reason why I'm here and I'm making contact with you and now I'm going to go. >> But all right, cool. But there there shouldn't even have been in a call because there was no crime committed. You know what I mean? They can uh >> I guess since you know our job, then >> Yeah, I do know your job. >> Okay. >> I'm not perfect and neither are you. You're human, I'm human, but like I've seen enough cop videos and I've had enough experiences with police to know that none of you guys are good people and it's not your fault. You've been trained and probably you you're trained the wrong way. Yeah, how's it going? >> Good to go, sir. >> Good. >> So just have a conversation with you. >> Oh, wait. So what is your badge name and badge number? >> Hering, I'm GT49. >> GT49? Your have your name and badge number? >> Oh, GT19. >> Name and badge number. >> Deputy Austin, GT46. >> Sweet. >> So. >> All right. Yeah, thanks for reminding me. I'll actually I'll do a public records request and then I'll see you know, listen to the the the video or the call. >> Yeah. >> But yeah, I don't >> I requested 911 and why that person called in saying you were suspicious. >> I'm I'm probably thinking it's the >> He's thinking that we made this up and we're making contact to harass him. All right. You good? >> Yep. >> Yeah, man, I'm good. I'm just I'm I'm assuming it's this house right here. If you want to take care of something, take care of these people. I talked to them almost every day I go by here jogging and their dog tries to bite me. You know, and I've told them over and over take care of your dog. Dog, I don't believe in calling the police. I can handle [ __ ] myself, you know what I mean? So, if I call the police, I don't want the dog to be put in the pound or or they're just going to tie him up, you know what I mean? Like be responsible and take care of your pet. Yeah. >> They do have the opportunity to call the cops if they want to. So, and that's why we're here to make the interaction if they're not able to or not willing to. >> Yeah, but that there's nothing suspicious about what I did. I I'm jogging. >> say I can't Did you tell him what what the call what we got? >> Yeah, he doesn't believe me. He thinks I made it up. >> Yeah, like I said, it it the vast majority of calls that we go on every day that we investigate to end up being like this. There's no crime that happened. >> Yeah. >> There's no paperwork that's done or reports that are done, but when people call we have to respond. It's our duty to respond when people call, right? >> Well, this could all be you know, put to rest. You might not even have to have to respond. Do you do any one of you know what the definition of a crime is? Can you even tell me that? >> Okay, somebody that's not the reason >> No, no, I'm asking you a question, sir. You have to answer my questions. Hey, rain it in, dude. What is the definition of a crime? >> There's kids in the area. >> There was no kids in the area. >> Okay, when I pulled up there was kids walking down the sidewalk headed to the school. So, there was kids in the area. >> The guy was walking around with a knife. >> Three cops walking around with a gun acting like cops? Dude, look at you guys, man. Like what is the definition of crime? You don't even know that. That's this Your whole job is based on that concept. Answer my question. >> I hope you have a great day. >> Answer my question. You guys don't even know the definition of a crime and you're out preventing crime? >> We do. >> What is the definition of a crime? >> going to sit here and have this debate with you. >> Yeah, because you can't answer. You can't answer. You guys are a bunch of bullies. Peace, man. Peace. See you. You're a bunch of liars and manipulators.
