career criminal this is unheard of man
this is very unheard of put your foot in
what did you got to tell me my rights
for one and what I did wrong when you
told me it was over it was 11:00 when I
came in here okay just so you
know way more into what it needed to be
so I it's 11:06 I pull in pull up I put
my light on him and he keeps like
reaching into the keeps reaching over
reaching over so I get up on him and
he's like sit there and he grabs his
taco and starts taking I'm sa get your
light off me just instantly starts being
aggressive so I'm like all right just
give me youring id I'm going to get you
out of the park well he keeps refusing
finally gives me his ID tell him to get
out of the car refus to get out of the
car so then he locks the car and then he
starts to back the car up oh okay so he
start move yeah so then that's when
Pratt flew up and was going to throw the
Stop Sticks behind
him all right Brian I need to know what
I did wrong sir one second I have to
read this to you first okay you have the
r from R silent anything you say can be
used against you or law do you
understand your rights as I've read them
no I do not cuz I don't understand why I
am being arrested it was 11:08 he was
sitting there talking to me before and
he brought up the time I was eating my
food bro Brian I got here after you
dealt with him okay take a deep breath
and just talk to me different okay this
could have gone a lot different if you
just would have been calm with them
right this was uncalled for this was
unnecessary it was 11:08 and I didn't
know I was at Taco Bell getting my food
trying to eat it before I drive and you
failed to follow any instructions given
by the officer you continued to reach
you locked your doors I locked my doors
because he had his dog I was being
pulled out you locked the doors before
he got the dog out so hold on this is an
ordinance violation and he treated me
like a criminal he didn't explain
nothing to me about time no not until
later then he says well I said well what
did I do wrong and he had to think and
he said the time and I looked and It's
11:08 I apologize I'm 8 minutes off so
after you apologize be like hey man I'm
sorry I didn't realize the Park closed
at 11:00 how can I help you tonight
officer you're right but when he pulled
up he shined his bright lights to where
I was blinded and I asked him to turn
his lights down that was a move I mean
I'm sitting here eating my food got my
head down eating a taco and he comes up
on me like I'm crazy you guys did not
have to tear me out of the car wrestle
me down so when you continue to reach
when you continue to act like the way
you did we have to escalate it because
there might be he was trying to drag me
out of the car if you don't get out of
the car how do we know you don't have a
gun in there when you're reaching you
keep moving your hands off the steering
wheel I admit some of a little bit of
fault but that he did his [ __ ] unne bro
I've been approached by cops before and
they were way not as aggressive as he
was off the bat okay I get it can you
put these cffs on the front of me or
something I'm listening to you bro but
if he's going to give me a ticket the
only ticket he can give me is for uh of
whatever you call it I'm 36 years old
soon on this coming up sat chared with
in and resisting obstructing for he
never told me anything he didn't say
what I was being arrested for he didn't
even I said what did I do wrong why do I
need to get out of the car why do you
need to arrest me Brian calm down again
like I said he did explain to you that
at that point you basically he had given
you a lawful command he said it out loud
I'm going to look up in the
constitutional rights of what I got to
do what is his command of law why there
has to be a reason to get me out of the
car there was no reason I didn't resist
the no arrest man and if I have to get a
lawyer and read my constitutional rights
on what went wrong I am going to do this
bro because this is way out of hand way
out of hand it didn't have to escalate
that way bro he could have people start
to act like that there's something more
going on than just eating Taco Bell
right hold hold on hold on hold on let's
back up okay what was so suspicious okay
and at the same time I simply asked him
what I want why he wanted me to get out
of the car he wouldn't give me a reason
just whole take
okay he's got a couple weapons but it's
a knife a tomahawk and a small bat right
now all I have is resisting and City
orance for being at the park after hours
can you guys just one of you write one
of those tickets for me m and then I'm
just going to do a quick report on it
that so unless he hits on the car Brian
are you injured huh are you injured at
all no okay I just have to ask you if
your cop would have given me a reason to
get out of the car and said well you
whatever he had to tell me would have
gotten out of the Caron instead of him
like trying to open the door without
giving me any kind of reason or anything
you want to hear the reason why it's cuz
you were making F of movements in the
vehicle toward the passenger listen
listen stop I'm listening okay we just
found a tomahawk a knife and a bat all
within your Arms Reach so do you
understand why we are worried when
people reach inside their vehicles when
we tell them not to you continue to do
it when I got here and told you not to
you okay I'm sorry but that's not my
intentions that's for like but how do I
know that how do I know you're not some
cra I get you I get why not just listen
to us step out of the car cuz the dog
was there the whole reason why I would
not get out of the car is cuz the dog
was there the dog was there at the
beginning you guys had to pull me yes it
was okay I take that back he went back
to his car you're right and had to get
his dog but he didn't give me any reason
we I just told you the reason and he did
give you the reason listen listen listen
let me finish talking you're not going
to jail tonight you were acting a fool
but you're not going to jail tonight all
right here's what happened I come to
this park a lot I did deal with a lot of
vehicles that I've had issues with that
come into this park after hours okay I
understand that you're in there eating
Taco Bell I saw you were eating the Taco
Bell so that's why like I didn't I saw
the fer movements but I saw you eting
the Taco Bell too so I took that in
consideration I wasn't a dick at first
right but you were being aggressive and
combative ver com the whole time and I I
want all the light that I can get in
that vehicle so I can see in does that
make sense no I totally understand you
bro I really do and I apologize but when
I do need the police when some and I
know this is irrelevant but this is why
I act the way I do around police some
guy in Cedar Rapids broke into my hotel
room I was taking a shower and
videotaped me in the shower and the
Cedar Rapids Police did nothing sent the
guy on his way okay so then I call go
back to Illinois the Illinois police
can't do anything about it and I just
want you guys to know that that's why I
have a hard time with police because
what that dude did was illegal and the
cops let him go and Scot free okay I'm
sorry hear that and but I apologize I
treated you like a human being I treated
you with decency until it was time to
not be decent and you your actions
dictated that okay yeah I tried to tell
you understand yes I am fine okay so
here's what we're going to do you're
getting two tickets all right I got to
do it because this turned into a whole
deal I didn't even want to do that two
tickets
come two tickets Park after hours and
resisting okay you're not going to jail
tonight you just got to pay a fine
what's resisting when you were resist I
know what type of fine is that I it's on
the back I don't know there'll be a
court date you is a hefty fine no you'll
go to a court date you'll get a little
slap on the wrist and we'll be done with
it but dude you can't be you can't be
sitting there and trying to put that
thing in Reverse when I'm standing right
next to the vehicle well it was in
neutral and that's why I waited until
you backed up because I know that I
wasn't trying to hurt nobody what when I
pulled in your rear your backup lights
were on yeah cuz it's a stick shift but
it was it was in Reverse those little
white lights on the back didn't come on
unless you're in Reverse yeah you put
that vehicle in Reverse got a question
for you when you were reaching acrost
the seat what were you doing I was
eating Taco Bell I was putting all my my
taco and in the back okay what's up with
the tomahawk man dude I'm a I'm an
outdoorsy person I go out hunting I fish
where was the tomahawk at I don't know
it wasn't in the back seat right yeah it
was in the back it was in the back okay
Tomahawk was behind the seat the
baseball back was be on the side of my
driver's seat and my machete was in the
very back dude I'm a hunting outoors
fish I and I feel bad that I was an
[ __ ] but if things were explained a
little simpler than me and him agree on
which I do I totally I agree with
everything that you're telling me but I
just don't agree on the you gave me a
reason to get out of the vehicle but
other than that I'm fine I just I'm glad
nothing could happen I'm just well I'm
glad nothing happened more serious too
so you're fine we're fine your vibe to
me was there's a gun in this truck he's
got a gun on him does that make sense no
it doesn't make sense man and I get
where you're coming from I get how
police have to protect we may seem tough
but like we get scared too so that's why
we do the things we do so everybody can
go home safe all right so I'm going to
put those in the back we're going to f
up this paper can I stand up at least
cuz this is uncomfortable give me give
me give me two minutes and I'll get you
the handcuffs all right all
right all right Brian go ahead and step
out me I'll get you all those
handcuffs all my pockets in the back of
the store you're not free to leave yet
cuz I got to get you that paperwork okay
by signing here you're not admitting
sign adiss a guilt it's just you signing
that you know that that you have a
court I'm getting a lawyer for this is
the only one I don't agree with the
resisting obstructing yes okay that's
fair that's fair that because I do have
I mean and I'm not trying to argue with
you guys but you know people aren't
educated and I do have constitutional
rights I'm not saying your line cuz I
what just went on is like mind-blowing
to me but I do know that I was not told
a specific reason other than I'm giving
you a command get out of my car that's
the only thing I heard from you out of
that whole thing and that's the only
thing I'm contestant against because if
you would have told me hey get out of
the car I going to run your name I don't
want you in your vehicle I would haveing
jumped out the vehicle no problem you
gave me no reason so I felt I shouldn't
have to get out of the car Brian go
ahead and sign then I'll explain you're
not even telling me how much money they
are nothing here's the thing is I don't
know how much money it is okay cuz I'm
not the I don't do the we just enforce
laws we don't do any Financial you're
telling me to sign all these in their
light fines you could be sling me
slapping in your head this is it's not
admitting guilt besides the point but
you signing that all it says is that you
understand that you have to go to that
Court ticket a City ticket is usually
anywhere from $25 to $75 depending on
the fine okay no I get it but I don't
have a job I wasn't doing nothing wrong
and once a lawyer gets a hold of this
stuff they're going to be asking in
questions bro like literally
do you guys feel the need to make
somebody no it's fine I'm just talking
being cool but he had no reason to
arrest me there was no reason for you to
act the way you did we can we can go
back and forth all night I'm not going
to argue with you I know but I have laws
in the constitutional right explained to
you why everything happened the way it
did that's cool okay that dog wasn't
there I would have been out in hard but
I've been attacked by the East Ming can9
dog in the whole County cuz my my
ex-girlfriend's dad works for the East M
prison they were laughing about the
situation using a dog to harm somebody
that was innocent I had no reason to be
bit the dog tore my nipple off ripped my
stomach out Brian listen and and you
guys don't care about that people are
scared of animals I understand that
that's why I'm going to tell the judge
and the lawyer I was going to get out of
the vehicle until the dog didn't get
removed Brian listen Okay because do you
get what I'm coming from though I do I
understand this will now be the third
time that I've explained right cuz you
agreed with me the first time that we
talked so I walked up right I walked up
and I explained to you the park was
closed correct correct okay then I got
your ID luckily you gave me your ID even
though you were reluctant to give me
that you gave me your ID I ran it right
but here's the thing is here's I'm list
so so listen so my light's on you and
you're pissed off about my light being
on you but I explained to you why my
light was on you yeah I couldn't see
right so because you couldn't see you
felt you felt that you were going to put
the truck you were going to put the
truck in reverse and start driving away
I was actually going to let it roll back
cuz it's a stick but yeah he could have
walked right up and busted your window
and we could have yanked out we didn't
okay cuz that's not the route we want to
go bro I'm not trying to argue with this
part I understand how everything went
down but I have a question for you then
why do they tell you on the internet and
other law enforcement people that aren't
cops anymore why do they tell you that
you only have to roll the window down
enough to hand out an ID and why do they
tell you that they have to give you a
legitimate reason why you are under
arrest or for you to even get out of the
vehicle because first off you can't just
listen to everything you see on the
internet now listen cuz I'm explaining
why everything is the way that it is
you're at the park after hours okay so
it's a city violation you are now
detained you're not free to leave okay I
know how to identify you right I got to
get the truck ran and I got to get your
ID ran so I know who I'm dealing with
for a it's it's it's a it's a petty
crime you know what IED up if I would
have done and I admit this IED up if I
would have done what you said you would
have gave me a ticket that wouldn't even
you would even gave me a ticket because
it was 1058 or 1059 and we started
around over here for about 8 minutes and
then that 8 minutes is what made if you
want me to show you I didn't roll in
here till 11:05 11:06 okay well it was
11:08 when you had the dogs and I'm
talking looking at the police on the
phone trying to shut my phone off
there's it's two tickets just don't miss
the court day cuz then you get a stupid
freaking City warrant okay you know what
I'm not doing any of this because I'm
going to go pay it and I don't have to
go to court there's a court date okay
why do you to go to court if you pay it
so you can pay it before the court date
you can show up and see if you can pay
it before okay but there's a court date
and to be honest you might want to go to
the court date instead of just trying to
pay a fine because I'm not certain that
they're going to just sit there and slap
your ass with a fine okay so if you do
want to go pay you you still got to show
up to court to see if you can settle up
with it okay okay can you do me a favor
so we both feel even here because I feel
I still feel like there was some
craziness going on is there any way that
you can State roughly what time it was
so they don't think I was here at like 1
in the morning well I did a I'm doing a
report right so it'll have a quick
report that I type up on what happened
and my report will state at the
beginning that I conducted a vehicle
check at this location at 11:05 p.m.
there's a gentleman eating Taco though
it will our cameras are time stamped
everything's time stamped all right no
fair fair all right man listen I'm sorry
it went the way it went but hey I think
what it is man it is what it is so Brian
be good Brian was cited for resisting
obstructing and the park violation he is
innocent until proven guilty in a court
of law
