[Music] Step out of the vehicle. What's wrong with you? >> Step out of the vehicle now. [Music] >> Step out of the vehicle. >> So then leave or you will go to jail cuz I've already trespassed you. >> Name badge number. >> Three four. It's right here. Jay Yunker. Badge number is 374. >> You want to remain silent? Just show me a picture ID. So >> Nope. Nope. Nope. I am remaining silent. Cops are supposed to protect us from crime and uphold justice, right? But what happens when they abuse their power? Get ready because today we're talking about shocking moments when evil cops turn themselves into victims. Or at least they tried. >> Okay. I'm asking you to step out of the vehicle for me. >> Thank you. >> Okay. Well, you don't have that option. Okay. >> Yes, I do. >> You do not. >> Yes, I do. Matthew, >> I'm not going to step out. Why did you pull me over? >> Sergeant Steven Bryant from Longwood, Florida, stopped a vehicle supposedly for driving in the middle of the road. However, from the very start, it was clear that Sergeant Bryant was acting arrogantly and strangely. Police officers were required to explain the reason for a stop and avoiding that showed an intent to jump straight to force instead of following the law. Something tells me this was just the beginning. What's going on? Sergeant Brian Long Police Department. You let your window down for me, please. >> It's down. You need this license, registration, proof of insurance. >> There you go. >> Your license, registration, proof of insurance? >> I don't have that on you. >> Why don't you have that on me? >> Go in my phone. >> Okay. Can you move your license? >> I cannot. Unfortunately, it's a safety issue. >> I can. >> All right, Miss Class, do me a favor. Step out of the vehicle for me. >> No, no, I'm going to get you. >> Okay. >> I'm asking you to step out of the vehicle for me. >> Thank you. >> Okay. Well, you don't have that option. Okay. >> Yes, I do. >> You do not. >> Yes, I do. I'm not going to step out. Why did you pull me over? >> Definitely. You turn me in another unit. >> I'm going to ask you one more time. Okay. >> Sir, why did you pull? >> You have either step out of the vehicle or I'm going to go ahead and bust this window or pull you out of the vehicle. >> Bryant asked for a driver's license, registration, and insurance, but refused to let the driver retrieve the documents from his phone. He then ordered the driver out of the vehicle without a valid reason. Under Florida law, an officer could request someone to exit a vehicle, but only with reasonable suspicion or a safety concern. Neither applied here. However, Bryant took this as a blow to his ego. And you can imagine how far this was about to go. >> For what? >> Okay, but I'm asking you to step out of the vehicle. >> We're going to need to get my answer. >> Okay, ma'am. I'm going to ask you one more time. >> No, sir. >> Step out of the vehicle for me. >> See where it was? Nope. >> Which was at Circle K or in front of my father's house. >> Okay. Do me a favor. Step out of the vehicle for me. >> Yes, sir. I just I don't see why. >> But I'm telling you to. >> I feel comfortable in my car. I'm >> Well, I'm not asking you anymore. >> I'm getting my >> I'm telling you to step out of the vehicle. >> Just call another sergeant for me, please. >> I am the sergeant on duty. So, you can have to step out of the vehicle. >> Call 911. >> If you call 911, you're going to go to jail for misuse of 911. >> For what? You just >> I'm telling you, if you call 911, you're going to go to jail. >> I don't feel comfortable. I feel shaken right now. Well, I don't know why. >> Because you're asking me to pull over. You said you were going to break. >> Yes. Because I'm telling you to step out of the vehicle. I don't need to tell you why. I'm telling you duty. >> It is not. >> The driver asked for an explanation of why she was stopped, but Bryant refused to give one. Instead, he threatened to break the window and drag her out by force. This went against the spirit of the Fourth Amendment, which protects against unreasonable searches and seizures. Threatening physical force without any immediate danger was an abuse of authority, but that clearly didn't bother Sergeant Bryant at all. >> Yes, it is. >> So, you go ahead and step out of the vehicle or you going to go to jail? >> This on camera. >> I 100% do. So, >> all of it. >> So, go ahead and step out of the vehicle. I'm going to pull you out of the vehicle. >> Let me call you. >> Okay. You got one more option to step out of the vehicle. I'm going to shatter your window and I'm going to pull you out. I'm telling you what's going to happen. So, you can either step out of the vehicle. >> Sorry, >> step out of the vehicle now. >> Excuse me. Can I get a second? >> Step out of the vehicle now. >> Cool. >> Can I? >> Nope. I'm told you you've got that option. You're going to jail. I'm telling you now. That's the one I got when refusing to open the window. Um, you'll separate. Bryant increased the pressure, saying the driver would be arrested for misusing 911 if she called another patrol. Legally, that made no sense. Calling 911 out of fear of a police officer was not misuse. This ban directly stripped a citizen's right to ask for help. Bryant was building a scenario where he was the only authority. Exactly the kind of abuse the law was meant to protect against temporar. I'm about to shatter your window, ma'am. Step out of the vehicle. >> What's wrong with you? >> Step out of the vehicle now. >> Step out of the vehicle. Can you let me step out of the vehicle? >> Get out of the vehicle. >> Pepper the boy. Step out of the vehicle now. >> What a boy. >> Step out of the vehicle. Do it now. Do it now. Get out of the vehicle. Get on the ground. Put your hand behind your back. Do it now. Do it now. >> Stop. >> Do it now. >> Put your hands behind your back. >> The driver once again refused to get out, feeling unsafe. Let's be honest. She had every right to feel that way. The shattered car window proved it. But if you think that was too much, just wait. Sergeant Bryant was only getting started. And what he did next would show just how far he could go when someone bruised his ego. >> You're going to get tased. understand all for money. All for money. Excuse me. Excuse me. Stand up. >> Excuse me. >> Get my glasses. We'll get you in a minute. Dude, >> are you going to die in your hand while >> Brian used pepper spray on the driver, even though the footage showed there had been no physical attack beforehand, his claim that she hit him or spilled a drink on him was immediately disproven by video evidence. According to use of force standards, pepper spray was meant for act of resistance or assault. Neither was present here. But wait, because he wasn't done yet. >> Well, now you're going to jail. >> For resisting obstruction on here. >> No, I'm not worried about your glasses. >> I am. >> I don't care. I don't care about anything. What's up? >> Uh, you can keep another unit coming. I'll have that FD route as well. >> Have a seat. [Applause] >> Yeah. Okay, stop. Did you hear his laugh when he said he pepper- sprayed a poor woman who had done nothing? Was this all just entertainment for him? I hope he gets fired so he can be the one people laugh at because this is not what taxpayers are funding. No one wants to rely on police officers like Sergeant Bryant. And sadly, this story was far from over. My ass. When I bust the window, it went through it. I >> just grab >> Huh? >> I just grab >> cuz she pulled back and kicked me. >> Oh, she >> Yeah, she he >> I don't know. They throw the drink at the table. >> Yeah. >> I hate you. >> Where'd my cap go? Bryant, while speaking with fellow officers, gave a false version of events, claiming he sprayed because the driver hit him and spilled a drink. In this shocking moment, this evil cop tried to turn himself into a victim. But the video once again proved him wrong. There was no hit and no spilled drink before the spray was used. This practice of sinking stories among police officers to justify illegal force has been well documented in many cases. Just listen for yourself. What? >> Oh, there it is. >> Yeah. At least out of my face. That's all. >> I know. Did they Did the person throw the grenade? >> Yeah. That's what it said. She pulled back. She kicked back. And then that's why I said, "All right, cool." >> How you do your last be? You know, >> cuz you ain't working tomorrow. >> This is how you do. Are you okay? >> That's just from the window. If my when I hit it, my ass went straight through it. >> I know. They're they're bleeding, too. >> What' you sell for? >> Uh, high beam on. >> I be >> Yeah. He kept repeating the same lies in front of the other officers. This showed intent, not a misunderstanding. He was consciously creating a narrative to avoid responsibility. In most jurisdictions, such behavior should lead to both disciplinary and criminal investigations. Unfortunately, these kinds of reports were often accepted without verification, completely undermining the very purpose of body cam footage, right? >> Yeah. Well, my ass would have went through the windows. I'm sure it's nothing but like glass. Then she kicked me out and I'm tell the window. I bust it and I pull the door open and she kicks me and I go to pull her. She threw a drink at me all in my face. So I sprayed it, dude. >> Huh? >> This is how weird. >> All right. >> So pepper spray makes him sneeze. Just >> Yeah, just make her sneeze. >> Jesus. >> So she wouldn't roll down the window. >> She wouldn't roll out the window. It's one of those ones she did this. this. I said, "Man, if you let out your window for me, "No." "All right, cool. I'm not going to argue with you. Go ahead and step out of the car." >> Bryant explained his procedure to his colleagues, bragging about how he broke the window and threw the woman to the ground. He spoke about charges he could add, as if it were a menu of options and not the law. I mean, was he even sane? Having the nerve, if we call it that, to say these things while his body camera was still recording was truly delusional. And somehow, he still wasn't done. I don't need to step out of the car. I said, "Well, not asking you. You have to step out of the car." Got you. >> I don't want to step out of the car. I said, "Okay, well, you can either step out of the car or go ahead and or I'm going to bust your window." >> Yeah. >> I'm not I'm calling 911. I said, "If you call 911, >> you're going to jail for 911." >> All right. >> Well, I don't have to. I said, "All right, open the window." She lets it up and she's like doing one of those things. I said, "All right, cool." So, I take my ax and it flies through the window. I use a glass breaker. goes straight through the window. Oh jeez. And goes in. >> Where is it? Do you have it? >> I grabbed it. >> Oh, okay. >> And then I go to pull her out. She leans back towards kicks and throws her water. I was like, "All right, I'm done with this." And I sprayed her. >> And then uh >> I think her face gangster. >> I don't know. I don't know. She's eating something or you should bust her face. >> Oh, I have to piece anyways. All right. Uh that pulled her out and Peggy would get her. I would take her out. >> So persistent with violence, battery, and then whatever else we can take away with. >> Another female officer stated she would have done everything the same way, only more efficiently. This confirmed that the violence was a systemic practice, not just one officer's misconduct. Naturally, like-minded allies of Sergeant Bryant showed up on the scene because, let's be real, he wouldn't have called officers who actually did their jobs properly since that would put him in trouble. >> Um, >> yeah, I have to clear off said, "Hey, let's get um >> Yeah, >> pictures, pictures of him." Um, we'll get pictures of her when she comes out. Um, you want to tell the car? >> Yeah. Oh, yeah. Okay. sneak. [Applause] >> Yeah, I saw the car. Oh, >> give me a second. >> Just so you're aware, you're going to jail for resisting with violence, obstruction. No, I'm not giving you a glass right now. Oh, okay. Okay. Well, we'll take you up to the hospital. You got pepper spray anyway, so you go out there and get medical clear. I can't see the floor right there. >> We'll we'll get him in a second. I'll tell you what you're going to jail for. Okay. >> The woman was told she was going to jail for resisting with violence and obstruction. Bryant emphasized that he didn't have to explain the reason for ordering her out of the vehicle, which was again false. While the law sometimes allowed an exit order without details, refusing to give a reason in a situation like this, violated the principle of lawful conduct, and added to a citizen's justified feeling of insecurity. But really, what else can we have expected from him? >> All you had to do was simply step out of the vehicle. I don't need to tell you why your son. Okay? So, that's what you're going to jail for. All you had to do was simply step out of the vehicle. You probably would have got your ticket. You would have been on your way. Okay? What did you guys pull over? >> Driver to high beams and she did one of those author. I said, "Let your window down so I can get your ID." Nah. I said, "All right, go ahead and call for me." Nah. I said, "All right." I said, "Look, you got either step out or I'm going to pull you out one way. You're either coming out of the vehicle one way or another." "No, I'm going to call 911." I said, "If you call 911, you're really going to go to jail without 45." In front of others, he repeated that the only problem was the high-beam switch and that everything would have been fine if she had just gotten out. That was practically an admission that there was no real threat and such a statement destroyed his own version of a legend attack, but he was far too full of himself to realize it. And that arrogance was about to cost him. >> No. Just let the window all the way up. I said, "Okay." told my unit come and I shatter the window but my ass flies out through the flies through the windshield with it or through the side window with it and then uh she goes to like try to lock it again and I pull it open and I pull her she kicks me throw it back throw the water in my face I said all right I'm spraying you I'm done with this spray her then I threw her out of the car onto the ground there so she would have just got a probably a verbal warning for her high I be on her way but it's the route you choose what happens it I guess >> all Right. >> So, >> you got to do it the hard way, I guess. >> You know, make it harder than what it needs to be. >> Water all in my ear. >> Do you have anything of value in that vehicle? >> Should have broken. I wanted I had it, but I was going to break it. >> You actually took the time to take a look at >> I said, "Let me do it this way." >> A fellow officer added that she had broken the window, too. This kind of mutual approval of violence among police strengthened the us versus them mentality. When violence was treated as good practice, every citizen became a potential target. And officers like this definitely need to be taught a lesson fast. >> That's what happened. >> I went and it's like it just flew out of my handset. >> Okay. >> As long as you have causes you, that's it. hair was kicking. I said, "All right, that's it. I'm not doing this." >> Okay. I don't care. She didn't want me to take her to the hospital. I'm not going to the jail for them to say, "No, go give another medical." >> I haven't rent her yet. No, >> I literally I have no there was no explanation for her her actions whatsoever. >> Just uh I don't got to do what I got to do. >> Yeah, exactly. We can throw the lift back in the car. I'm not taking it with me. Bryant contacted his superior and gave them the false version of events with parts of the conversation where he turned off his body cam. Turning off the camera or audio during an intervention was often seen as an attempt to hide illegal actions. Maybe he thought this would get him off the hook, but in reality, all it did was confirm his story. With the lid back, I'm not taking it with me. >> Hello. >> Yeah, give me a second. Let me get you on my phone. Hey, can you hear me? Hey, nothing. I just want to let you know we had to use the forks. Uh, it was on me. Um, pulled the car over for high beams. Um, she did one of the little barely cracks the window slides slides the uh slides your DL out. I said, "Man, can you let down your window so we can have a little conversation conversation and you can provide me your uh your um proof of registration insurance?" Um, she goes, "No, I don't want to." And I said, "Okay, I'm not going to have the conversation this way." I said, "Can you go ahead and just step out of the vehicle for me?" >> This case ended with the woman being arrested for nothing, or rather for provoking Sergeant Bryant by refusing to obey his illegal orders. Still, after seeing this body cam footage, let's hope justice does exist and that Sergeant Bryant will serve his punishment for this behavior. And now we move on to the next case where officers were desperate to ID someone and got completely owned. A driver was sitting on a private property doing nothing when an officer approached him under the excuse that he matched the description of a shooting suspect nearby. This was a classic example of how police use vague descriptions to justify random stops. Man, with such a weak start, we already knew where this interaction was headed. This will be just another shocking moment in which the evil cop tries to turn himself into the victim. >> Can I help you? >> Yeah. You want to run back real quick? >> No. What do you need? >> I need you to identify yourself. >> No. Why? >> Uh because >> All right. >> Leaving the area. >> Hold on. Hold on. >> Don't worry. This is being recorded as well. I know, but your recording is a lot easier or it's a lot harder to get versus mine. >> Okay. Will you please roll down your window more to talk to you? >> No. What do you need? >> All right. Well, I need to identify you. >> No, you do not. >> My name is Officer Mercedes with the Grand Junction Police Department. All right. >> All right. What What's your What's What's your badge number? >> 2016. It's right here. >> Okay. >> And this is my corporal right here. This is corporal church. >> Okay. >> As well. >> Okay. >> All right. So, I need you to identify yourself. >> No, that's not how it works. I have rights as an American citizen. Right. >> Yes, you do. >> Yeah. Yeah. You have to suspect me of committing an actual crime in order to identify. >> The officer asked the driver to roll down his window and identify himself without stating any specific suspicion. The driver correctly replied that identification was a secondary offense and that reasonable suspicion or a primary offense was required. And he was right. Without a specific suspicion, the police had no authority to force identification. Still, his answer didn't sit well with the officer at all. >> Failing to identify is a secondary offense. You have to have an actual charge or you have to suspect me of committing a crime. You don't have that. You have nothing. I'm not going to identify simply because you because because you see me park and you want to come up and identify me. That's not how it works. >> So, okay. Okay. So, here I'll clarify some things for you so you understand why I'm coming up and making contact here. >> Okay. >> Earlier in the night, there was a shooting that occurred right near the Travel Lodge. >> Okay. >> And your car is similar in description a dark colored sedan suspect vehicle. >> Okay. >> All right. So, you're seeing leaving the Travel Lodge information that's where the suspect might have come from. >> Okay. >> All right. >> Okay. But, but do you have actual do you have a license plate number? Do you have a description of the person? Do you have anything? No, you you do you do not have articulable suspicion that I've done anything. I >> actually do. >> No, you do not. >> No, you do not. I I am I am not going to identify. >> Okay. If you fail to identify yourself, I'm going to pull you out of this car and detain you for obstruction. >> No. >> Because right now you're interfering with my investigation. >> No. I I've done I you you you do you do Oh. Oh. Okay. So, so you have to have reasonable, articulable suspicion that I have committed a crime. What crime do you suspect me of committing? >> The officer claimed the stop was due to a shooting at the Travel Lodge and that the driver's vehicle matched the description. When asked for a specific description, though, the only detail he would give was a dark sedan. Legally, that's not enough. But at least this gave away that he had made up the whole story. He'd be foolish to think we couldn't see that. Possible attempted homicide. >> Possible attempted homicide. >> Yes. >> You suspect me, actual me, of committing possible attempted homicide. >> Well, your cooperative behavior right now does not help your cause. >> No. Being cooperative or or or uncooperative. I'm not giving up my rights. When you when you when you give up your rights, you'll lose your rights eventually. I have rights as a free American. I've done absolutely nothing. I pulled into a gas station because my friends are here because we're going to >> associate. >> Absolutely not. No. No. No. You You this this this is going to go to to you guys you guys have have have lost have lost [ __ ] mind. I've done nothing. You can't just go around and pull over and and and and suspect anybody and everybody because Haven't you haven't done that because that would be a violation of people's rights. >> Right. Exactly. >> In the area of the crime. >> Exactly. >> With a similar colored vehicle, similar nature to the >> Okay. What What is What description of that vehicle did you get? >> The officer admitted that the description only included the color of the vehicle and the possibility that one of the suspects was African-Amean. This moment clearly showed how deeply racial and vehicle color profiling was rooted. The fact that the driver wasn't the only one who fit the description didn't stop the police from treating him as the main suspect. And it would be a while before they realized what they were doing wrong. >> Tell me. >> A dark in color sedan. >> A darken colored sedan. >> Yeah. >> Okay. >> And one of two people also, excuse me, two people also stated that one of the suspects may be of African-American descent. >> Okay. Well, it's not me. I've done nothing. I am not going to identify because you don't have that right to to to to take that right from me. I've done nothing. Nothing at all. >> So if you've done nothing wrong, all you got to do is N >> that's that's not how it works. That's how people lose their rights because because because because law enforcement is always like, well, if you've done nothing then then then you shouldn't be afraid. No, that's that is that is intimidation factors. Aaron, I just need your information. >> Absolutely not. No. >> All right. Corvo, can you go come over here, please? >> Absolutely not. >> The driver explained that he was a veteran and knew his rights. While the officer actively tried to intimidate him, police often didn't know how to react when they encountered a citizen who understood the law. Instead of engaging in dialogue, they turned to manipulation, trying to steer the conversation elsewhere. Here we see it in the corporal's attempt to soften the situation, but in the same goal as before, to force an ID. >> Absolutely not. >> Okay. >> Hey, Aaron. >> I understand your situation. I But but but I I am a free American. I'm a goddamn veteran Marine who's done four deployments to Iraq. You're not going to come up to me and try to intimidate me and get my identification. Huh? >> He's intimidating. >> He is. He's He's >> Do you want to talk to me? >> Yes. Yes, I I I I do. >> He'll step back. >> Can I talk to you for a minute? >> Yes, sir. Okay. >> Did he explain to you what's going on? >> Yes, he did. And and and I and I understand I understand what what all is going on, right? But I am a constitutionalist. I believe in the American Constitution. I believe in American rights, especially as a black man. Right. >> The corporal admitted they had already run the plates and knew the driver's identity. Yet, they still demanded his ID. This confirmed it wasn't about safety or an investigation, but about principle, a display of power and control. And of course, with the arrival of another officer as backup, even if you were hoping otherwise, the situation wasn't going to improve at all. >> I understand. >> You believe in the rise of somebody who shot >> that? >> That has nothing to do with me. How would we know that? >> I feel with them. I feel for them, right? But that's that's that's that's got nothing. >> Rifle competition, right? >> I'm going as a guest. >> That's kind of cool. We want to get you on your way, man. >> Okay. >> All I really need to do is identify you. >> No, you do not. No, you don't. You already know my name, which means you looked up my freaking license plate, right? So, why do you need for me to identify? I'm not giving up my rights as an as a free American because you guys are using intimidation tactics. Failure to identify is a secondary offense. Secondary, you have to have a primary charge, a primary reason, right? >> I just told you >> reasonable, articulable suspicion that I, me have committed a crime, not anybody in the area, me as a person. The driver clearly explained the difference between reasonable suspicion and mere guessing. But the police refused to admit they were wrong. This was a pattern seen in many incidents. The more a citizen knew their rights, the more the police insisted on their demands. Not because they were correct, but because their authority had to remain unquestioned. Have you ever encountered officers like this? Let us know in the comments. >> Articulous suspicion that I have committed a crime out of Colorado. >> Huh? Have you ever had an idea out of Colorado? >> No. practice Utah. >> Yes. >> All right. Have you ever been contacted by police in Colorado? >> No. >> All right. What time's your match start? >> What's that? >> What time's your match start? >> I'm not discussing my business. I'm >> just trying to get you here on time. >> Okay. You know what? At this point, am I being detained? Yes or no, please? >> Yes. >> Okay. At this point, I'm executing my Fifth Amendment right to to to remain silent. I'm going to remain silent. If >> you want to remain silent, just show me a picture ID so I can >> Nope. Nope. I am remaining silent. >> Okay. >> We may take a minute to get a photo from Utah. Just FYI. I'm going to send this video to we the people on YouTube and it's it's it's going to blow up and you're going to look ridiculous for your intimidation tactics that that you've tried to use on me. I'm just saying. After confirming he had never had any contact with the police in Colorado, the driver asked if he was being detained. He got a yes, which meant he was legally in custody. Despite that, the police still tried to get him to voluntarily hand over his ID. Seriously now, do these officers even know when to stop? Clearly, they don't. >> Go ahead. >> Done absolutely nothing. I pulled into a gas station, didn't even get out of my car or anything. You guys just come up because you see a freaking black guy in a in a in a a van that meets the description. Do you guys know how many times you guys use that that type of language to to to to violate people's rights? >> Okay. Well, I'm sorry that you feel that way. That's not what's going on here now. All right. Again, I told you you just left the area where we got information that the suspect of a crime may be. >> Okay? >> And the crime occurred right down the road. >> I'm executing my fifth amendment right to remain silent. >> Okay, you can do that. I I uh I implore you to do that. >> You know what's funny? My buddies that just left, they were also in a dark sedan. A dark sedan, right? But you guys aren't questioning them. Why? Answer me white, please. They were in a dark sedan. The exact same color, actually. The exact same color. And we're going to to a competition. You said that one of the suspects was identified as or may have been identified as as a black American, right? But which which means that that there might have been a second suspect. The driver pointed out that his friends in the same dark sedan were not stopped even though they were headed in the same direction. This selective enforcement revealed the true nature of the stop. It wasn't about the vehicle or the crime scene, but about who the police choose to target. And honestly, who even knows if that whole shooting story was real, right? Where's the second suspect? White or or or Mexican, Hispanic, whatever. Right. But you aren't stopping them and questioning them. You stop me. And you wonder why [ __ ] have such a difficult time understanding how law enforcement does [ __ ] They were in a dark sedan, dude. A dark sedan the exact same color as mine. And you did not stop them and questioning them. You're doing it to me. >> Okay. Well, I'm sorry. >> Nope. >> Shut your mouth. I don't want to talk to you. >> All right. You shut your mother mouth yourself. [Music] >> Never mind. >> Yeah. Yes, exactly. Shut the [ __ ] up. >> Frustration grew and the conversation turned into an open war of words. The officer offered no new information or valid legal basis, only prolonging the detention. This kind of holding pattern was a tactic meant to wear someone down, hoping the citizen would give in under pressure. But unfortunately for them, this man was determined to stand his ground. >> All right, I'm executing. I'm I'm just going to be quiet. >> Okay. Well, I want I I understand. >> I don't I don't want to hear you. I don't need anything here. I don't need to hear anything from you. I need I need for you guys to do do what you had to do and let me go cuz >> that's what we're working on right now. >> Okay. >> So, I want to clarify something for you. >> I don't want to hear it, man. >> 30s. So Aaron, I want to apologize that you feel this way and I really truly do appreciate your service. The reason why I'm contacting you is because another officer saw you leaving that area and requested this vehicle be stopped. Okay. >> Oh, now now your story is changing. Guess what? Guess what? They left the area, too. >> Yeah. And that officer that called for this did not see that car. Okay. >> We were We were together. Well, I'm sorry that I I didn't see that other car. Okay. So, I apologize. >> The other dark sedan with white guy in it didn't get stopped. My car gets stopped. All righty. >> Okay. Well, my sergeant's on his way. So, if you would like to talk to him, okay, >> I don't I don't give a I don't want to talk to anybody. I want you guys to let me go. >> The officer changed his story now, claiming the stop was ordered by another officer who saw the driver leaving the area. This shifting of version showed that the original reason wasn't solid or more accurately wasn't true. Clearly, they were just hoping that by throwing out enough madeup excuses, one might stick and get them what they wanted. >> Okay, we're trying to do that. All right, >> trying to violate my rights in the process trying to intimidate me like I'm dumb. I need to identify you. I need to. You don't. Get the out of here, dude. I'm the absolute last person to ever bring up race about anything, man. I don't ever bring that up. But I find it hard to believe that my buddy's car, dark sedan, exact same color, dark gray. We leave at the exact same time. He doesn't get stopped. You see how that officer came up? He said, "I need to identify you. You must ID because I came up and I'm asking for it. You must ID." That's not how [ __ ] works in America. That's why any interaction with the police, guys, you record it every time. No matter how small, you always do it. >> There's guns in the other car. He's not really forthcoming with information. Why are you not cooperative? >> Because I don't I don't have to be cooperative with your investigation. >> Well, you have to ID yourself. >> No, I do not. >> The officer still insisted that the driver had to identify himself under Colorado state law, but couldn't explain exactly how that law applied here. When a citizen asked for a precise legal explanation, the police were required to provide it. Avoiding the answer and repeating that's what the law says without citing the provision was a clear sign of either ignorance or bluffing. And in this case, looked a lot like both. >> Okay. >> I I I absolutely do. Tell me why I have to ID. >> Well, Colorado State law says you do. >> Explain that to me. >> You want me to recite the law? >> I want you to I want you to explain why I me as a person have to ID to you. >> Colorado state law says you do. Explain that law. >> Okay. What do you want to explain? >> You can't just say, "Well, the law says you are law enforcement, right?" >> So, explain to me why it doesn't. >> No, no, no, no, no, no. You know, I do know. >> No, you don't. >> How are you going to tell me what I know? >> Well, you >> How are you going to tell me what I know? >> You can't explain it. >> I did not say that. I can't explain it. You as a law enforcement officer, as law enforcement, know the law. Me as a citizen is asking that. First of all, what's your name and your badge number, please? >> Okay. >> What's your name and your badge number? What's your name and your badge number? Sir, I'm >> not going to give that to you. >> You have to. >> No. >> Yes, you do. The driver asked for the officer's name and badge number, which was every citizen's legal right. The officer refused to provide them, directly violating transparency standards. When a public servant doesn't want to identify themselves while acting in an official capacity, it raises serious questions about accountability and intent. And here, those questions practically answered themselves. You are a public servant. I'm asking for your name and badge number. >> Give me your name. >> No, I do not. You have to have reasonable or tickable suspicion that I me as a person have have committed a crime, about to commit a crime, or in the process of committing a crime. >> I agree with that. You're correct. >> Okay. So, so explain to me how with that law I have to ID. >> Explain to me. >> So, you wanted me to explain to you why I'm asking for you to identify yourself? >> Yes. And first, first, wait, hold on. First, please please give me your name and your bass number, please. >> No, I won't give you that right now. >> What do you mean you won't? This is This is the most ridiculous thing I've ever encountered. >> Would you like me to explain the reason I'm asking you for your >> I would like your name and batch number, please. First. >> You don't want me to explain the reason? >> I would like your name and badge number first. For the record, name and badge number first. >> I am willing to explain to you the reason that I asked these officer to stop you. I'll >> pull you over and ID you. >> The situation turned absurd. The driver asked for a basic right and the officer responded with a condition. I'll give you my name if you give me yours. This kind of trade had no legal basis and served only as a display of power. The officers didn't even know the rules of their own profession, which was disturbing because how can we expect them to know the law? >> Would you like me to explain that to you? >> I'm going to execute my right to remain silent. This is this this is just ridiculous. My fifth amendment right to remain silent. >> You going to tell me I don't know. >> I'm willing to explain that to you. Happy to do so. This is the most ridiculous thing I've I've ever Law Enforcement officer tells me. I'm I'm asking him the law. He doesn't want to explain the law to me. And he tells me, "Well, you don't know. You don't know." Obviously, he thinks the >> American public is just stupid and doesn't know their rights. >> Can I please have your name and back for the record, please, too, sir? >> Right after you give me your ID, I'd be happy to. >> That's not how it works. That's not how it works. You are public servant. If the public asked for you to identify, you must identify. My god. If the public asked for you to identify, you are involved in this engagement. I would like your name and batch number. >> You realize that you're holding up several officers while there's an active investigation. >> No, you guys are. You guys are. You guys are holding up yourself. I'm doing nothing. >> The driver invoked the Fifth Amendment and remained silent. The officer still avoided explaining the legal basis for identification while accusing the driver of delaying the investigation. This was pure blameshifting. Instead of admitting they had no valid reason for the stop, they accused the citizen of obstructing their work. Ah, so now that's the problem. What will it be in five minutes? >> You guys are holding up yourself. Cuz you guys are are the ones that don't want to let this go. Please, please, please identify yourself. >> I'll trade you. >> No, that's not how it works. I have a right to not >> I think that's fair. >> No, it's not fair. It's it's it's the law, man. It's not that hard. You're you are you are law. You are law enforcement. >> Huh? >> You're you're disobeying the law. >> I'm not disobeying the law. I am not disobeying the law at all. I'm abiding but by the law. You guys are not. Yeah. Yeah. Smile it up. Smile it up cuz this is going to be on freaking YouTube and you're going to be famous. Smile it up. >> Google Colorado Revised Statute. Obstruction of a police officer. Why don't Why don't you look up the basic requirement to ID? >> The driver explained that failing to identify was a secondary offense and that there had to be a primary reason, which didn't exist here. How sad it was that this really wasn't so hard to understand, yet a citizen had to explain it to the very people who were supposed to already know. And honestly, was it really necessary to have this many officers over something so ridiculous? >> I thought we've gone over that a couple times. Sell your ID is a secondary offense. I have to have a primary at first and I do not. There's going to be a lot of people that see this video that are going to ask, "Well, why don't you just ID? Why don't you you you just ID?" That's how you give up your freaking That's how you lose your rights. You lose your rights when it becomes normal practice to be, "Well, what are you being hostile for? What are you what are you not cooperating for?" or they use words like like that to try to intimidate you to force you to give up your rights. That's how you lose your rights as as a free American in the United States because the norm becomes well just give up your rights. So for all you people that are going to ask ask that question, that's why I'm not IDing cuz I am not going to give up my rights because there's too many sheep out there that don't know the law and are afraid of the police. The identity of one of the officers, Officer Steel, badge 102, was caught on camera. Even though the police tried to remain closed off and unidentified, the camera once again played a key role. The public had the right to know who was exercising police authority. Attempts to hide identity in situations like this only further erode trust in the institution. And here, that trust's already hanging by a thread. >> One person failure to ID. Another person failure to ID. Tough to say, but I think that is a guy for >> but I'll identify him for us since he name is officer steel. That's number looks like 102. 10-2 >> and then officer >> uh I can't see his name. >> The conversation shifted to side topics and technical details while the main issue remained unresolved. In the end, the driver was released without any charges, confirming that the reason for the stop was never strong enough for an arrest or a ticket. Sadly, this would probably just end with them finding their next victim. And if you think this was bad, wait until you see how the cops turned a walk in the park into a lawsuit. Speaking of shocking moments in which evil cops tried to turn themselves into the victims, on May 9th of 2025, Jeremy had his first unpleasant encounter with the police. While walking in the park, he noticed workers on an island in the middle of the lake. He stopped to watch, which irritated park worker Terry Issacs, who began cursing at him. He even called the police. Officer Jason Yner then arrived on the scene and little did Jeremy know things were about to escalate fast. >> How we doing? >> Not bad. >> So what happened? >> Guy out here come walk you up the road there. >> Yeah. >> Got red hat on. >> Okay. >> Just filming me like what what you filming me for? Don't worry about it. Captain I said I wonder what the hell you filming me for. You're supposed to do what you want. I said, "But you're filming me. What's your problem?" Kept saying you. I said, "You just need to get out of the park." I said, "I can bar cuz I'm the boss out here. You can't do [ __ ] to me." I said, "No [ __ ] Watch this. I'm going to call law and your ass." He ran out of the park. He just kept saying all kinds of [ __ ] I said, >> "Did he hurt you?" >> No, we have to go over the island. >> Oh, okay. >> I said the truck there taking chase and stuff over and just kept what the hell you tell me. I can film whatever I want. You're filming me. >> Right. Right. Right. Did he say he was going to hurt you at all or? No. >> Now he was just filming you. Okay. >> All right. So, >> so you want him trespass? >> Yeah. Me and down both want him out of here. >> Got it. I'll take care of it. Yes, sir. >> Go ahead. >> RB advisible. >> Negative. He does want him trespassed from the park and the aquatic center. Officer Jason first spoke with the workers who described Jeremy as problematic. While admitting there had been no threats or physical contact, this was a key moment. The officer should have recognized there was no basis for criminal offense here only hurt feelings. Instead, without checking the facts, the accepted the worker's story is truth and decided to jeopardize someone's rights just to protect someone's ego. [Music] Hey, how we doing? Great. >> All right. So, you are trespassed from the whole public park. Okay. So, are you familiar with the freedom of press? >> Yeah. >> Okay. So, you are allowed to press if you're doing news and things like that. Once somebody ask >> walking by, >> but once somebody asks not to be recorded >> in a public place, >> it doesn't matter. He is the property manager of this entire place. He asked you. >> He's a government employee. >> He's not. >> He doesn't work for >> This is the public park. >> Exactly. >> Public park. That's not federal. That's not government. >> It's a It's a West Frankfurt city park. >> Okay. Do you understand what I'm trying to explain to you though? If he does not want to be recorded, you cannot record him. You must turn it off. It >> This is a public place. You can't There's no expectation of privacy in public. >> Okay. Is Illinois a two-party consent? >> The worker asked for Jeremy to be trespassed, banned from the park and the aqua center. The officer agreed without a legal basis other than because he wants it. In proper legal procedure, banning someone from a public space had to be based on an actual threat or unlawful behavior, not the request of some random person. And here that rule wasn't even considered unless >> Okay. Well, you are free to leave. Just make sure that you stay at least on Cleveland Street, but you cannot enter it in. Okay. >> Are you asking me or? >> That's what I'm telling you. >> Telling me under threat of arrest. >> What's that? >> Under threat of arrest. >> I'm advising you right now that you are verbally trespassed from the West Frankfurt City Park and the aquatic center playgrounds >> for what? For filming him. >> For filming them. That's exactly right. That's right. >> I haven't given his information. >> What's that? >> Mine is the crime. I'm not going to get I'm not going to give you my information. So then leave or you will go to jail cuz I've already trespassed you. >> Name and badge number >> three four. It's right here. Jay Yunker. Badge number is 374. >> All right. Have a good day. >> Yep. >> Where would I go to lean on that guy for telling me to >> for exercising my right? >> Go to the when they have the meeting on Tuesday at the township city hall. The officer told Jeremy that he was banned from the entire park. He also made a completely false claim that in a public space, you couldn't record someone who didn't want to be recorded. Such a drama queen. This was a direct violation of constitutional rights and showed a lack of training on the First Amendment. Another officer, Mixon, brought up Illinois two party consent law, but wrongly applied it to a public space. >> The guy knows I was just trying to see how they got out there to the middle. I mean, I wasn't doing nothing to try to make you mad. >> Yeah. Well, obviously obviously thing. You know what I'm saying? >> Obviously, you instigated it even further. >> I didn't. Well, >> you did. >> No, I didn't. He wanted to tell me a second. >> Well, all you had to do was just stop recording him. >> That's what we the taxpayers pay for this, sir. >> Okay. >> You don't understand that. My taxes pay for this. That's why I come out here and walk every day. All I'm doing is out here exercising. >> Okay. >> These guys are unbelievable. They don't own this. >> They can't just kick anybody out. Okay, [Music] >> get a hold of the park board just like Officer Mixon told you. The exit's that way, sir. >> Hello. >> I got to go get my vehicle. >> The exit is that way. >> How do I drive out of here? >> Where is your vehicle? >> Over this way. >> Okay. [Music] The officers directed Jeremy toward the park exit, but he explained that he needed to get to his vehicle. This situation then became absurd. A public park was being treated as if it were a private property of the worker and the police were acting as enforcers of his personal wishes. All the while, they ignored the fact that the incident had happened in a space funded by taxpayers. his own personal place. Hope everybody in Southern Illinois understand this guy thinks he runs this place. You can't even go by here and record this beautiful West Frankfurt City Park. Unbelievable. So the West Frankfurt Police Department will kick you out. You're never allowed to walk here again. down there. [Music] I'm good. >> Are you still failing to identify yourself? >> You are trespassed. So, yes, >> I'm leaving. >> How are you still failing to identify yourself? >> I'm leaving, sir. making uncomfortable. >> My RP gave a description of Dylan >> 674. [Music] What's the address? >> After the incident, Jeremy filed complaints with the police department, the mayor, and the city council. He also gave formal notice of the lawsuit which led the police chief to introduce First Amendment training and lift the park man. Months later, Jeremy returned to the park, but something told him this story still wasn't over. >> Monday through Friday, 9:00 a.m. >> How do you man? >> Good. Your name? >> Say 444. >> Okay. [Music] >> I got it on I got it on video. >> What you got? So, I was just walking through here and they they put some new signs up and uh I I walked over here and took a picture of it because, you know, I was wanting to know what it says. He wasn't even here, you know what I mean? He he drives up and was like, "You're not going to learn till you have your ass whooped, right?" And I I didn't even see him, you know what I mean? He drove up behind me. >> You ever met him before? >> Yeah. He uh called the police on me a few times for recording out here. Tried to have me banned. He thinks this is like his own personal property and it's not. >> Yeah. I think it was explained if you're out in public, you can record whatever you want. >> Yeah. He still don't understand that he works for the public. He don't This isn't his personal thing. He can't just have anybody banned. It's not yours, man. And why do you got to threaten me? He was going to whoop my ass, man. >> It's going to happen, right? >> See what happened? I like I was just telling SE that they have them signs over there and I was just come over here and took a picture of it. It's all on record. Okay. And uh he drives up in his truck. When he sees me, he gets triggered for some reason. I don't know what it is. He just don't understand. We have a right to do it. >> You It doesn't matter. This is public property. It's not your shop, sir. It's not yours. You don't own it. >> The worker, later identified as Terry, spotted Jeremy again. Jeremy told the officers that Terry had verbally attacked him once more, this time threatening physical violence. Jeremy stressed that he had only been photographing a new sign which was completely illegal. The officers admitted he had the right to be there and to record, but Terry still refused to accept that public space didn't belong to him personally. >> Hit that through your >> You already explained everything to him, right? >> Explained everything to him. So >> he he still doesn't get it. He thinks he can take out an OP on somebody for walking through here. >> I've explained his options. Again, you're not doing anything wrong, so we're going to get out of here. Any questions for me, Jeremy? No, I mean I I just don't understand why he just thinks this is like his personal thing. Like I I did I wasn't in the shop for one thing. I I went over there and took a picture that he drives up and he's like, "You're not going to learn till you get your ass whooped." Why'd you got to come over here and threaten me? >> Did you show me that? >> I I just started recording when he said it. He knows that I'm not recording. So he drives off real quick when I start recording. >> Okay. >> He's like, "He's not stupid." And then he comes and tells you guys I threatened him. Like why would I? like he drove up and >> I'm sure they got they got cameras out here somewhere, but they won't like they're they're denying my my foyer request for those cameras and stuff. So, >> okay. >> Like, of course, they're not attached to to you guys. They're their own. >> They're like, >> and I'll explain it to you like this. They're like they're like the po the post office, okay? The post office can make their own rules and stuff like that. >> Yep. >> You know what I mean? So, >> they're a federal agency. I get it. I get it. >> You have any questions for me, man? But no, I appreciate you guys upholding my rights. You know what I mean? Because I'm not doing anything wrong. You know what I mean? I was out here just walking. I walked right through here, took a picture of that, but continued on my way. Jeremy pointed out that recording public workers in a public space was a constitutional right, while Terry kept ignoring that fact. The officers confirmed that Jeremy wasn't doing anything wrong, and he thanked them for respecting his rights. This time, they passed the test, but only this time. A month later, Jeremy once again returned to the park with a protest sign. this time calling out the park director and tearing by name with curse words included. You won't believe it. The police were called once again. >> How you doing today? [Music] [Music] >> How we doing? >> Good. You >> good? What do you want to do? Hey, I don't want that FU sign in front of these these ladies or not, that's not going to happen. >> Okay. >> And whether you guys appreciate it or not, he's not going to have a sign that says on there. >> I got you in my front right in front of my building here. So, I'm trying to cause trouble. All >> I can ask him to move to the sidewalk and >> I told him to move out there and he's told me to. >> Okay. >> So, and I told him I said, "Come in here." But he didn't come in here. >> Okay. >> Cuz he comes in here, it's over, guys. I'm telling you right now, I'm done with it. >> Okay. >> This guy just calls trouble. He's putting you guys on. >> What are what are you wanting to trespass him from the aquatic center? >> He can't come in aquatic center. >> Okay. He's not allowed. >> Sorry. >> Oh, hey Jack. Move that truck, would you? >> Hey, Jeremy. >> So, they're wanting you to leave the property of the aquatic center, but you have every right to go to the sidewalk. >> It's public property, >> but the aquatic center is different. >> It's not. This is this is actually >> I can do a public record request here. I mean, it's free speech. >> I I agree 100%. >> This moment tested the limits of free speech. The message was offensive, but legally protected as political expression in a public space. The officer openly admitted he understood Jeremy's arguments and rights, but warned that more citizen complaints would keep coming. Well, so what? All he needed to do was explain to people that they couldn't do anything while someone was exercising their constitutional rights. But I mean, it's just, you know, with little kids here. >> It's free speech. >> I understand. I understand. >> He doesn't like it. He's He's triggered. I get it. >> I got you. >> It's emotions. It's just a feeling. >> Yeah. >> Everybody has has a right to >> He said they don't want you in the building. >> Well, I mean, I can do a a request with you. I mean, he can't he can't deny that. I mean, these these these um cameras and everything, I have a right to get those. I mean, You know what I mean? >> No, I totally understand. They just they just don't like the cuss words, you know, for little kids. There's a bunch of little kids coming in and out of here. Now, somebody's parents got to explain that to them. >> I get that. >> It's not about the little kids. It's about him taking me to court and stalking. >> Does he have an order of protection or anything against you? >> Judge threw it out on the face. >> Gotcha. >> We have a right to be here. >> No, I I totally understand our feelings. I totally understand. Like I said, it's just we're just going to have non-stop calls with parents and everything else. >> And that's not my intent. You know what I mean? And that's >> I I get what you're doing. I get what you're doing. >> Judge is going to say it. You know what I mean? Does he have an intent to >> That's That's why I'm just asking you. I'm just asking. I'm not telling you. >> Once you guys leave, I I'll leave once you explain to him that I have a right to be here. >> I'm going to. >> Honestly, Jeremy handled the police well. And let's be real. If all the citizens knew their rights like this, there would be fewer officers able to violate them. For some reason, many police still think they're above the law, and it's time to put an end to that. You think this was bad? Well, unfortunately, it gets even worse. In the next video, you'll see officers taking things to a whole new level of wrong. You won't believe what some of them try to get away with. So, don't miss it.
