Tell him the next time to do his job right. >> This encounter started when an Arizona officer approached a man sitting on property where he claimed he regularly worked cleaning at night and informed him that he was being trespassed. The problem was that when the man asked whether the officer had actually spoken to the manager before issuing the trespass warning, the officer admitted that he had not. The dispute quickly turned into a battle over who actually knew the facts. The man insisted he had permission to be there and repeatedly challenged the officer to verify that claim before trying to remove him. As the conversation continued, questions started piling up about whether the officer had done enough homework before taking action. The more the man pushed back, the more uncomfortable the situation became for the officer. >> They asked that you not come back over there on the property, okay? >> Okay, I would ask for you to ask Officer Hatch why he lied on that police report on the on the person that ran me over. And I would like my property that you guys stole from me on private property that you trespassed on, arrested me, and took my [ __ ] to Gilbert. I would like my motorcycle, my van back.

Uh so so I'll ask Officer Hatch >> And and my my probation officer knows that everything that's going on, so >> Okay. >> And and I don't know how you guys expect me to get to Gilbert cuz there ain't no public transportation out here and I ain't going to be damned if I'm walking all the way to Gilbert to get my van and my motorcycle that you stole from me. >> Well, I don't know how you get to Gilbert either, but as far as >> Well, I'll be seeing you guys in the courtroom and there will be a lawsuit.

She's a real nice lady. >> Yeah, I had given you guys the number when you guys when you guys let me out of jail after you towed my private property. >> All right. >> After after her actual supervisor felt the need to come up here and tow my instead of saying instead cuz I didn't have a warrant that morning and none of your officers tell me that that I didn't have a warrant that morning.

But he said, "No, you two came here." Oh, no, I'm all good here. I know I'm all good here. This is the same property you guys trespassed on and stole my van from. >> Okay. >> And my motorcycle and my tools and all my clothes. I've been wearing the same clothes for over a [ __ ] week. Because you guys want to steal my I'll be sitting right here until I get my van back. If not, I'll see you guys court. Have a nice day, sir. >> The biggest issue in this encounter wasn't the officer speaking with the man. It was the apparent lack of verification before attempting to trespass him. If a property owner or authorized manager wants someone removed, officers can generally enforce that request. But based on the facts presented in the video, the officer admitted he had not spoken to the manager before telling the man he was trespassed, which is exactly why the civilian kept pushing back. The civilian's strongest argument was simple: verify the facts before taking action. If he truly had permission to be on the property and was working there, then attempting to remove him without checking with management would have been a mistake. The radio traffic suggesting he was allowed to be there only made the officer's position look worse. If there was uncertainty, the proper response would have been to contact the authorized representative of the property first, determine whether the man had permission to be there, and then proceed based on those facts rather than assumptions.
