Unless I've done something wrong, I'm not going to >> right now. >> Yeah, >> you are doing something wrong. I >> explain it to you. >> You didn't cuz I PULLED IN DRIVEWAYS. >> SHUT UP AND LISTEN. That's >> You see what I'm saying? Not a doubt. I got to shut up and listen to you. >> Cops are supposed to serve and protect. Yet for some people, the reality is very different. In today's episode, we're looking at shocking moments where corrupt cops get called out and owned by citizens who refuse to stay silent. These incidents reveal just how far some officers will go when they think nobody's watching and what happens when they're finally confronted. >> Follow me and everything. Let me see your ID. >> What am I doing >> right now? >> Yeah. >> Let me see your ID. >> What? >> Why? >> The man from the YouTube channel Super Rick was that day following a police ticket operation in Milwaukee. And that third encounter finally triggered officer Lent's ego. Rick was just watching from a reasonable distance, not interfering. But Officer Lent had a different narrative. Instead of finishing the routine stop, he shifted his focus [music] to the filmer's identity. And with such a pathetic approach, it's already clear how the rest of this encounter will go. >> Filming me and everything. Let me see your ID. >> What am I doing >> right now? >> Yeah. >> Let me see your ID. >> What? >> Why? >> Yeah. Why? >> Because I want to know who you are. or why you keep following us around. You can film all you want and that's fine with me. But I I still want to know who you are. I want to know who you are. >> So, let me see your ID. >> Unless I've done something wrong, I'm not going to >> right now. >> Yeah, >> you are doing something wrong. I just asked you >> for your identification. I need to know who you are because you are sitting out here filming us. With all the crazy stuff going around in this world nowadays, I am worried. Yes, I am. For my safety, their safety, and anybody else out here right now. Mhm. >> You can keep filming me. Let me see your ID. I'm going to take a look and then you can film me all you want. >> What's my ID going to tell you? >> It's going to tell me who you are and make sure that you're not somebody that's doing crazy things on you. >> Officer Lance immediately switched to a demanding tone and started insisting on identification. Even though there was no legal basis for that, since Rick wasn't a suspect of a crime or a violation, it was obvious officer Lent treated curiosity as suspicion and filming as a possible threat, which was logic that went directly against the First Amendment. But that clearly wasn't important at that moment. >> Tell that by my >> cuz I'm going to run you. >> It's not going to tell you anything. >> Yes, it is. Go ahead. >> You can film me all day, brother. I don't care. I haven't done anything wrong. >> That's That's why they're called field contact interviews, sir. >> Now, you brought yourself to us and now I want to know who you are. >> Uh-huh. >> So, let me see your ID, please. >> Uh, is that a lawful request? >> Yes, it is. >> Or an order? >> I'm asking you, let me see your driver's license or your ID, please. >> I'm denying that. >> Okay, then why don't you just turn around and walk away? >> Cuz I'm not going to. >> Then let me see your ID. I'm only going to ask you one more time. >> Wait, I just asked your ID. I just asked you if >> I just asked you and I gave you my reason why I'm out here talking to you now. >> Unless I violate >> I want You are violating my rights right now. >> Why? >> Because you're stopping us from doing our job to him over there. >> There's two of us here. There's two of them in the car right now. You are creating a disturbance. When officer Lent realized Rick didn't fit the role of an obedient citizen who backs down when seeing badges, he started inventing legal categories and claimed that filming was interfering with an investigation. That's an interesting way to redefine the law because interference is always tied to physical obstruction, not observation. But wait, unless Officer Lent was doing something wrong. >> I'm not creating you. I'm not in your Yes, you are. You're you're taking our concern because I've got to look for our safety. I got to look for our safety as well as theirs in the car. >> Let me see your ID. >> All I got is a camera. >> I'm asking you. Let me see your ID. >> Sir, I've done nothing wrong. >> Yes, you are. You're interrupting our investigation here. >> What statute is that? >> What did I just tell you? It's a safety for officers and for the people in the car. You followed from over there in tower all the way over here. And now you got my concern going. YOU CAN FILM ALL YOU WANT AND I DON'T HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THAT. >> RIGHT. >> OKAY. But I do want to know who you are. And yes, you're being filmed, too. >> Good. >> So, let me see your ID. >> Unless I've violated a law, >> a contact, >> a field interview, a contact, I can ask you for your information. Yes, I can. >> Sir, I'm not going to give you any ID. >> Let me see your ID. >> I'm not going to give you any. >> Why not? >> Is that >> What followed was a classic intimidation tactic. Officer Tobler joined in trying to legitimize the demand by talking about police safety even though no one here was in danger. You ever thought about why cops hate cameras this much? I think it's pure fear of being caught doing whatever. But hey, that's just me. >> I have to. >> You got something to hide from me? >> I don't I didn't do I I >> I'm asking you. You got something to hide from me? >> I didn't do anything to show you an ID >> right NOW. YOU DID. YOU'RE CREATING my awareness and you brought me out here. Can you call >> I can call a supervisor. >> Call him out here. >> Where are you from? Fifth district 873 >> 2816. >> Am I being detained? >> Did I put my hands on you? I asked to see your ID. >> You don't have to put your hands on me to detain me. >> Don't tell me what I'm doing and what I'm not doing. >> Did I ask you or did I tell you? I asked you >> uh 873 to 816. You owe me this stuff. >> I'm going to move away a little from you cuz you seem kind of volatile. >> No, you're the one. >> As minutes passed, Officer Lent started using rhetorical traps about hiding and motives as if Rick were a spy, concealing some criminal background. That's a technique that often works on poorly informed citizens, but Rick knew very well that a citizen doesn't give identification without reasonable suspicion. That's exactly what annoyed the officer so much. >> KIND OF VOLATILE. I HAVE NOT DONE ANYTHING. I HAVE NOT COME OUT. >> Raise your voice. You're very aggressive. >> I talk. I always talk loud. I >> very aggressive. You come up within like a foot you want. You can say whatever you want. >> It's on film. >> Yeah, you're right. It's on. >> What's your name, by the way? >> Officer Lent. >> Lent. Yes. >> Your badge number >> 1763. YOU GOT THE camera things. >> I know, but I'm not sure they'll get that. >> Well, now I'm supposed to go out of my way for all of that. >> No, it's part of your department all over the place. >> It's department policy to identify yourself when asked by a citizen >> and it's part of your policy. >> No, I don't have a policy. >> So, you could you could ask me everything I want. I can't be concerned for my safety or another concern. And that's why we want to know who you are. >> Yeah. Well, you're not going to know. >> Yeah, of course. So my boss will be out here. >> Cool. He'll set you straight. >> Yeah, >> maybe he'll >> I have every right to sit and ask. The >> ego slowly started to overpower the procedure. Officer Lent took the refusal as a personal insult, not as a legal right of an observer. He began shifting responsibility for his own frustration onto Rick, claiming Rick was the source of the problem. Let's be real here. Only one causing a problem here was the cop himself. But fine, let's pretend a little longer that he wasn't the problem. >> You can do you can ask all you want. I'm denying that request. >> Yep. >> Yeah. >> With an >> and that's where where do you want to go with that? >> Where do you want to go with it? >> I'm not going nowhere. >> YOU OBVIOUSLY SEEM TO HAVE NOTHING BETTER [laughter] TO DO. MAYBE. >> YEAH. EXACTLY. It's funny. >> It is funny. Yeah. You a motorcycle cop? >> I'm 1490. >> Can you tell? >> I would say you are. >> Okay, then. Why are we asking me the question you already know the answer to? >> I didn't know for sure. >> You must have because you said yes. >> I think you are. >> 3181. >> They're usually the most aggressive. >> Yeah, we're most aggressive. That's why That's why most people driving cars get brakes from us. >> Yeah, we're most aggressive. Oh, get breaks on tickets. >> Yes. >> Okay. >> Officer Lance kept insisting Rick was interfering even though there was no actual evidence of interference. Rick was standing on a public sidewalk, didn't approach the car, and didn't talk to the driver. Legally, Officer Lent was trying to create reasonable articulable suspicion retroactively, which was pretty much impossible. Still, that didn't stop him from pushing forward. >> Hey. All right. >> Yeah, >> I'm going to have to look that one up. >> You look that up and you see. And while you're at it, GO AND ASK THE PUBLIC HOW MANY OF THEM GET. >> Because I remember uh uh Chief Flynn saying, oh, he was giving a annual meeting or something. He goes, "Oh, the motorcycle departments, oh, they write tickets how they want." You know, >> you're right. And you just admitted it right there. >> But he was talking about how many warnings the other departments give and they just kind of dismissed it cuz you guys write. >> We give warnings too, >> all the time. >> I I'll look into that. >> Yeah, you look into that. >> I will. [laughter] I'm glad you got nothing better to do on a nice Saturday night. >> Oh, I got to keep a watch on you guys. Make sure you don't violate any citizens rights. >> Of course you do. Yeah. >> And see the disturbance now. You creating more people coming out looking around. >> Yeah. They're coming out getting in their car and going somewhere. >> Yep. >> Big disturbance. >> It is. >> That guy did a U-turn. That was a big disturbance. >> Yeah. >> Officer Lance started making insulting comments about how Rick had no life or responsibilities because he was filming the police. Great, he won. Bravo, officer Lance. It was funny how much this cop thought he sounded smart and confident while the reality was completely different. But I guess this is expected behavior when shocking moments corrupt cops get called out and owned happen, right? >> Yeah. Regular crowd here. >> Yeah, regular crowd here. You're right. 149 miles. You guys writing a warning for that guy? >> I don't know. I'm not in the car, remember? My partner's [laughter] handling. >> Yeah, he is. That's right. But I doubt if he's right in the war. >> The atmosphere then relaxed on the surface, but Officer Lent still didn't give up on the idea that filming was some kind of security anomaly. even tried to normalize the aggressiveness of the motorcycle unit by saying they were the most energetic. I know, I know. Nothing he said made any sense. But wait, he still wasn't done >> this long. >> Of course. >> Are you from District 5? >> No, I'm not from District 5. You just asked me and you. >> You never answered. You were on the radio. >> What did you just say? A motorcycle cop. >> See how you're getting closer to me. >> Don't come Don't come from the district. >> Where do they come from? and neighborhood task force. >> All right. What? >> How am I coming to you? I haven't moved any closer to you. >> You have. I moved away and you're moving closer again. You're trying to get >> You're more than an arms reach away from me, brother. >> You put your arms that way. >> Don't even go with that stuff. [laughter] >> You can't put it forward cuz I'm I'm within your reach. >> NO, YOU'RE NOT. >> YEAH. >> Right there is my reach. YOU'RE OUT OF MY REACH, TOO. >> Don't even give me that. So, you guys have your own uh department? >> What do you mean we have our own department? We work for the Milwaukee Police Department. I know you What are you asking me if you have your own? >> Rick kept observing and officer Lent kept rationalizing his fear, claiming he felt threatened by a man with a camera. Well, if someone is [music] really scared of a camera, then they definitely shouldn't be a cop or go outside ever since that's the only thing you can't expect in public. And if it wasn't this man, security and CCTV cameras record us all all the time, right? >> Or what? >> We don't have our own district. >> So, you're not from any district, but you don't >> you have any district? >> I just told you we're from the neighborhood task force. >> And that's not out of any district. >> No, we support the districts. >> Okay. So, you're allocated to each district. >> When they need us, we go, they tell us what >> That's what I'm trying to get the answer for. >> But you seem to have all the answers. District 2 has neighborhood task force. A lot of districts have neighbor and they're not motorcycle cops. They're regular. They have a SUV that says NTF on it. >> We're in a car. >> Yeah. >> We're motorcycle cops. >> All right. >> We can drive the vehicles. >> I guess that's what you do now. >> When winter comes. Exactly. There you go. See, again, you got the answer. >> I'm getting to the bottom of things. >> Yes, you sure are. >> How long is this guy going to take to get here? >> Um, first of all, it's not a guy. Huh? >> It's my boss. She's >> She be honorable. >> Officer Lance tried to ideologically justify his position by talking about an unpredictable world and possible threats. However, what he didn't know was that there wasn't a single thing he could say or do to make his situation easier after everything he had already done. And he was about to learn that the hard way. Enough to make him think twice next time before doing anything similar. >> How long is she going to be? >> I have no idea where she is, brother. >> All right. 915 safety and security. >> So, what district are you helping tonight? >> What district are you in? >> I think five. >> Okay, there you go. You got the answer again. >> I'm getting all the answers. >> You got the answer. >> That's good. Getting educated. Just when you thought Officer Lent couldn't sink any lower, he suggested that he had tools for defense and control, while Rick had nothing but a camera. That's a rare moment of honesty. Basically, let's admitted that weapons didn't create a sense of safety, but a need for domination. Yes, he was that stupid. Having fun? >> Beautiful. I'm glad you are. >> It's all right. I've had funner days. >> Well, I think you enjoy this. >> I don't I'm not looking for it, but if it happens, you're not looking for it. >> How can you say that? You were over by >> You don't have to approach me. >> You followed us. >> You don't have to approach me. See, but you don't understand. I've already told you. I get START GETTING WORRIED ABOUT MY SAFETY and their safety when all >> every attempt by officer lens to get an ID turned into a personal battle against the concept of privacy. Rick kept repeating that his privacy didn't have to be open like a book just because he was filming a public process. Lent, on the other hand, claimed that a police identity was public while a civilians wasn't. Interesting that someone like this even got that job in the first place. Then I got somebody walking around, okay, >> TAKING PICTURES. I DON'T KNOW IF YOU'RE JUST TAKING PICTURES. Maybe that's a gun OR SOMETHING. HOW AM I supposed to know what you're doing? >> Yeah. With the crazy stuff that's going out in this world, and you can't tell me, Mr. Camera guy, that you haven't heard of a lot of crazy stuff. >> If some if if I want to do something like that, why would I go right to the scene with a gun camera? >> Let me ask you, why do people Why do people do it? >> I don't know, but I They do it. >> I've never heard of it. Yeah, >> a gun all the time. >> A gun camera. >> You got gun phones, >> taser phones, all sorts of different weird things. >> Never heard of it. >> WELL, LOOK IT UP. >> I just know this and I'm legal and there's nothing you can do about it. >> And I told you you could do asking permission. It's my >> you had to ask permission. >> Well, you guys act like I need your permission. Well, no, BUT WHEN YOU'RE STOPPING US FROM being able to do our stuff, yes, you >> If you're wondering when Officer Lent would finally realize he had gone too far, turn around and leave. Well, don't get your hopes up because he still had a lot to say. Spoiler alert. None of this was smart, but he was so blinded by his desire for authority that he didn't even realize how much he was putting his qualified immunity at risk. >> Bar. >> No. >> Yes, you are. >> No. >> Yep. >> I didn't go inside your investigation. I'm over here on that sidewalk. >> First of all, like I said, >> I was right up under the car, maybe. >> From over there, then you came over here. And yes, you came right past our car. >> I came up this sidewalk. >> Exactly. Right past the car. And that's why I'm walking past the car. I went >> You're right. >> diagonally. I didn't go beside your car. >> Do you think I wouldn't worry about it? >> I don't know. >> SOMEBODY WALKS UP BY YOU ALL. >> YOU COULD BE CONCERNED, BUT YOU got the gun. You got the tasers. >> Doesn't mean I got to use it. No, but you're out. You can defend yourself. >> That's why we come out. You might be concerned, but you can defend yourself. I don't have [ __ ] >> Well, you know what? To me, that's all excuse. That's why we come out and we talk. >> Well, you talk. >> But you don't want to talk. You just want to keep taking pictures. >> What do you want to talk about? >> I told you >> my ID. >> I gave you all my information. >> You ain't getting my ID. I can tell you that. >> You want all of my information, but you don't want to let me know who you are. >> You work for us. You're a public servant. >> YOU'RE RIGHT. I AM. I don't work for you. >> You're right. And >> my information is private. >> You got my concern going up. >> Your your uh information is not private. >> My information still is private. What I do for a living, >> your personal information, >> what I Exactly. And what I do for a living here is open to everybody, >> right? >> You know, >> I agree. I mean, I would never >> And that's why I gave you everything you needed to know. >> Officer Lens still didn't have a high enough IQ to deal with Rick, who was actually a real law expert. backup had to arrive. Still, don't get too excited about the sergeant's arrival because if the sergeant had already made it clear to Rick what he was allowed to do and what he wasn't, we wouldn't have ended up in a situation where innocent citizens get harassed. >> Anything? Any information? >> You wouldn't want my job. Is that what you were going to say? >> No, I was going to say I wouldn't want your personal information. >> Well, that's a good thing. >> I'm not concerned with that. >> Well, I would hope not. 1423. 143 out at 125 East Juno. >> Did you hear her? >> No. >> At 16. >> You didn't You got You're set for 16,2. >> Huh? >> Yes. >> Did you hear me come across? You couldn't have cuz I'm at 16. Wait. OKAY, HANG TIGHT. I'LL BE HERE. >> All right, >> look now at the claims Lince was making. Just a few minutes earlier, he said he was scared of the citizen and that Rick's camera was putting his safety at risk, but turning his back didn't show that at all. If you're scared of someone, you'd be extremely careful, right? Well, if you think this is contradictory, just wait. Sir, officer, if you're so concerned with your safety, how come you just turn your back to me. >> Why? Because I got my partner sitting watching right past me. >> He would have to do something through you to do something >> right past me. >> All right. [laughter] >> Yeah, you guys are funny. >> Yeah, you are. >> When Sergeant Carpenter arrived, the dynamic changed for the worse. Still, Officer Lens rushed to her at the speed of light because if you didn't know, whoever tells their version of the story first is right. I told you there'd be more manipulation. But trust me, the real surprise comes when you hear how bad Sergeant Carpenter was at her job. There. There they are. Rick expected that Carpenter would correct Officer Lent about the law and identification policy which partially happened. However, Carpenter confirmed while there was a difference between a request and command, a citizen had the right to refuse an ID demand. But still, she didn't do what she should have done. Dismiss officer Lent because that's exactly what he deserved. >> How's it going? Right. >> Sir, is there something I can help you with? >> Uh, I think you can help him. >> Is that so? >> Yeah. >> Nothing I can help you with? >> Uh, what's your name? >> Sergeant Carpenter. >> Carpenter. >> Edge number 389. >> Thank you. >> No problem. >> Uh, no. He called he he needs to be straightened out on policy and the law, I guess. >> No, he explained it to me pretty well. >> All right. Well, is there any problem there? >> Did I do something wrong? >> You need some ID? >> Did I do something wrong? Did I ask? >> Nothing wrong with him asking. >> It was interesting to see how officer Lent backed off once Carpenter took over the narrative. The aggressive attack turned into passive standing, which in police psychology is known as the walk of shame. Rick stayed in full control of the situation because he knew the procedural truth was on his side. >> And I told him, "I'm not giving you any. It's my right to deny that." >> Exactly. >> Right. >> Right. Okay. We're clear. >> So So we have an understanding now. >> Yeah. But he's being >> he's being kind of aggressive. So I told him to call you and you would straighten him out. >> Okay. >> All right. >> Now I think we're all on the same page. >> I think I think she's doing the exact same thing I did. Standing right in front of you. She's not asking me for ID and she's not >> You already explained that she didn't care to give me ask you and you give it to me. Great. >> When you do it in an aggressive manner and then you act like it's a lawful order. >> No, no, that's just him. >> Yeah. All right. >> There you go. I talk loud. >> It's him and a lot of other cops. All right. >> Oh, I'm talking loud. >> So, we don't have a problem now, do we? >> Exactly. >> I never had a problem. >> Okay. Well, you said to call a supervisor, so here I >> Yeah, cuz he was getting aggressive. Thanks for coming. >> But we're cool now, right? and everybody's got the same understanding. That's great. >> Okay, >> we are you have a good night. >> I'm fine. You too. >> In the end, the whole operation ended without an arrest, without identification, and without any legal consequences for Rick. Still, I love how Lent acted as he thought the same thing as the sergeant the whole time. Like, we were all blind and the evidence didn't stay on camera. The only thing worse than cops who think they're above the law are federal cops who think they're above the law, which is what we're talking about next. This time everything started in a boring way. Just a simple interaction between a driver and a patrol car. But then it all turned into a police operation of do what I say because I said so. However, the whole case becomes more interesting when you find out the cops were following this driver long before they pulled him over. And the reason will shock you. >> My man. >> What's up? Can I ask you why you pulled me? >> Yes, sir. I'll explain to that to you in just a second. I see the fire on there. >> Yeah, that's right. It's something for y'all to see. I ain't going to do nothing or anything like that. So, the reason I pulled you over, man, is because we got behind you. Hey, roll that window down. Sir, I require you to roll your windows down when officer encounter. >> Yeah, my window is down. >> Roll your window down. >> I will not. I'm talking to you right now, >> sir. I'm I'm going to ask you one more time. Okay. Roll your window down. All right. Because now you're going to go to jail. >> For what? What did I do? Y'all follow me. Y'all follow me. Can I talk first, please? >> No, sir. This is not your traffic. >> Talk to me. So, roll your window down if you don't mind. >> Can you tell me why you stopped me? >> I'll explain that to you in just a second. >> I'm not rolling my window down. You ain't got to grab me, brother. I'm coming. I ain't got nothing in my hand. I ain't got nothing on recording on my phone. And can I say this before y'all do that? I don't consent to no search or seizures. I don't consent to none of that. >> Being seized right now. >> For what though? >> Because a traffic Well, as soon as the traffic lights come on, that's a seizure. >> That's not a seizure. When the cop didn't get a window, he moved to the next level, physically pulling the driver out because, well, of course, when you don't have arguments, you use muscle memory. It's never good when police treat the sedution like a suggestion. At that point, a K-9 unit arrived because nothing solves a rolledup window like a drug sniffing dog. And don't forget, the cop hadn't explained why the driver was stopped in the first place. >> What is the What is the REASON Y'ALL STOPPED? Y'ALL FOLLOW ME 30 MINUTES. LIKE, tell me why y'all follow your passenger side. All right. >> Yeah. Tell tell me why I've been recording y'all the last 40 minutes. Tell me why y'all following me. Tell me now. >> Would you let me listen to you? >> Tell me now. Talk to you. >> Talk to me. Please. Tell me. So listen to me. The the to typical normal human being is not going to pull into random driveway >> because I can do what I want. It's not illegal for me to do. >> Listen to me. >> Talk to me. >> Listen to me. YOU'RE NOT LETTING ME TALK. >> TALK TO ME. YOU'RE NOT LETTING ME TALK CUZ YOU AIN'T GOT NO LAWFUL REASON FOR STOPPING. SIMPLE. >> YOU AIN'T GOT NO lawful reason for stopping me. Cuz I'm turning cuz I'm turning in uh driveways. >> We got real suspicion to pull you over. All right. >> And what is that? Cuz I'm turning driveways. >> Yes. Normal human beings do not stop into random driveways when cars when police behind them. Because I can turn in a thousand driveways. >> You pulled into a random driver. You turn around. All right. >> I can do that. >> Then you pulled into a gas station. >> I can do that. >> As soon as we left, >> you know, I could. Y'ALL FOLLOWING ME. THAT'S WHY I'M TURNING INTO all them random places. Y'all >> The driver tried to explain that the police had been following him for 40 [music] minutes. That's why he was pulled into a different yards and parking lots. The officers called it suspicious because in their version of reality, normal people drive straight and never turn. So if this isn't racial profiling, I don't know what is. >> YOU RACIALLY PROFILING ME. I AIN'T BROKE not one traffic stop. NOT ONE. NOW THEY got a dog. COME ON, C. Y'ALL IS PROFILING ME. >> ESTHER, WHY THE [ __ ] DID YOU PULL ME? >> COME ON. CUZ I TURNED DRIVEWAYS. >> You're not letting me explain. >> Explain to me one more time. >> No, sir. I'm not already. >> Hey, can you explain to me why you got that dog got running around my car? >> Cuz you asked me to. >> And why would you ask him to do that? Can you Can you talk to me? You ain't going to answer my question. Can I get your name and badass number right there? >> Can I get your name and badass number? >> Can I get your Rogers? >> You got bad number. >> We don't got bad number. >> All right. All right. All right. All right. >> You don't worry about nothing. >> How far be around the dog? >> Oh, yeah. I ain't worried about that dog. Y'all need to see this dog. >> Yeah. You ain't going to hit on nothing. Not a crime. >> Hey, they talking to I rather watch this for a second. Huh? I rather watch this for a second. Make sure it ain't nothing going on for me there. >> What's your name? >> But can you give me the lawful reason why you stopped? You ain't told me nothing. YOU GO TO JAIL. GIVE ME YOUR NAME. >> My name Douglas Win. Cuz it's Douglas Win. Douglas Win. not playing with. >> The K9 unit then walked the dog around the car because the officers didn't have evidence, but they had a dog and in their heads that looked like evidence. The driver sarcastically pointed out they were profiling him, which became more obvious as the minutes passed. Someone might say this was routine, but I'm pretty sure there's a much better word for what was happening here. You >> you stay over there. You're not part of this. We ain't doing nothing. >> I got license. I'm going to give you my license. Can I do that? >> I mean, there you go. You >> cooperating cuz how the [ __ ] I'm not cooperating? Y'all pulling me for no reason. >> Let me tell you something. Let me tell you something right here. >> Y'all pulling me for no reason. Come on, guys. Answer his question. All right, but quit touching me. You don't touch me no more. >> Or you can go in handcuffs. Do whatever you want to do. And tell me why I'm going in handcuffs. That's what I need you to do. >> Cuz you need to calm the [ __ ] down. >> Cuz you're telling me I need to call now. I'm going in [ __ ] Come on, cuz y'all pull on me. Can you tell me why you pull me? >> I explained it to you. >> You didn't. CUZ I PULLED IN DRIVEWAYS. >> SHUT UP AND LISTEN. THAT'S >> SEE, you see what I'm saying? Now that I got to shut up and listen to you. >> Now I got to shut up BECAUSE YOU AIN'T GOT NO VALUABLE REASON TO PULL ME. >> EXPLAIN IT TO YOU. >> CUZ I PULLED IN DRIVEWAYS. CUZ YOU SAID I pulled in driveways. I explain it to you. >> Cuz I pulled in driveways. >> At one point it became clear the officers didn't even try to justify the stop. The driver asked for names and badge numbers, and the officer struggled even with that, which is fascinating because that's the most basic form of transparency. If a cop can't state his own identity, then how is he supposed to explain the actions he's taken? >> Yeah, I'm good. It ain't nothing. Yeah, I'm good. I >> was saying you were good. >> You goddamn RIGHT I'M GOOD. I JUST WANT TO KNOW WHY I'M GETTING PULLED. That's it. >> WHY THE WHY THE SHOT? >> Is there anything illegal in the car? >> Cuz ain't nobody getting in that car. >> All right. Well, the dog hit on the car, so we're about to >> So now the dog hit on the car. So >> Cuz I don't even want to talk. >> All right, that's perfect. >> Yeah, I don't want to talk. >> Do what y'all got to do. Can I get your name and badge number? >> Yep. >> Can I get your name and badge number? I don't know. >> 8217. >> Excuse me. Can I Can I get you? >> You're talking ABOUT WHY THE [ __ ] YOU GOT TO TALK TO ME LIKE THAT? >> I AM. I'M HOSTILE. I'M SITTING HERE ON SIDE OF THE ROAD. Y'ALL AIN'T GOT NO REASON TO PULL ME. BUT THAT'S WHAT THEY DID. YO, TURN that [ __ ] on. I hope it is on. >> Come on. Calm down. Look at these the pigs going all through my [ __ ] That [ __ ] is crazy. >> [ __ ] Boy, >> out here act like 12. >> Boy, I don't acting like I supposed to act cuz y'all racially profiling another black man. It ain't [ __ ] to you. It ain't [ __ ] to you. I AIN'T BREAKING OUT ONE [ __ ] LAW. BUT I GOT TO GO THROUGH THIS. >> I'M HERE TO RUN the dog, >> man. Come on. Cuz you hit a dick ride and suck dick like them. >> Stay right there. >> WHERE AM I GOING AT? CUZ CAN I RECORD? >> ALL RIGHT THEN. Shut your mouth. That's what you do. >> I wish you'd shut your mouth. >> No, I will not. >> That's what you do. I can SEE THAT. >> YOU SHUT YOUR MOUTH. >> YEAH, BOY. >> I will not. >> Boy, you [ __ ] ain't scared to tell [ __ ] violating me. The driver expressed frustration and the officer immediately responded with a threat of arrest for behavior. That's always the best part. When the law stops being the standard and police sensitivity becomes the new norm. Why are officers always surprised when people don't enjoy being searched for no reason. If they believe that's normal, well then maybe we're all already under arrest. We just haven't shown up in court yet. >> Rights. Come on cuz I can turn in men's driveways IF I WANT TO. NOW THERE AIN'T NO REASON FOR Y'ALL TO PULL ME. NONE. And don't BE TRYING TO PLANT [ __ ] IN MY CAR CUZ I AIN'T GOT NOTHING IN THERE. NOTHING. AND EVERYBODY BODY CAM NEED TO BE ON. >> Yes sir. >> That [ __ ] is dead grimy. That [ __ ] ain't right. >> Watch your back, Carson. Tell them to move. >> That [ __ ] ain't nowhere near right. And you going to run on my fire on too? And you going to run my fire on too? That [ __ ] is crazy. I need your badge number. We going to go right down here where we need to go. I need y'all to point me in the right direction. This is what I need you to do. >> Yeah. I need you to point me in the right direction. You say your badge number. >> You got it on camera. It's 8217. >> Thank you. That's professionalism, ain't it? No matter what I'm acting like, you be professional. >> Yeah. >> That's a two-way street. >> No the [ __ ] it ain't. You get paid to be professional. You a peace officer, >> [ __ ] You You supposed to keep the the oath. You supposed to be protecting me. >> I'm also an adult, >> man. Yeah, I'm a dope. THAT'S NO I'M GETTING RACIALLY PROFILED FOR NO REASON. [ __ ] DIDN'T TELL ME ONE CRIME. I I BET YOU I WILL NOT GET ONE TICKET. I WON'T GET ONE TICKET WHEN I LEAVE THIS [ __ ] >> YEAH. OKAY. GIVE IT TO ME. THAT'S WHAT I WANT. >> While the driver sat on the ground, the officer started taking the car apart like they were searching for treasure. The driver said he hadn't committed any violation and the officers were on a mission to convince him otherwise. And of course, I don't even need to tell you they didn't have a warrant or any kind of authorization for what they were doing. But since when do cops need those, right? To do. Give it TO ME. HEY, CAN I GET YOUR NAME AND PASS NUMBER? I'LL WAIT TO YOU. I'll wait. You ain't got to talk. I can understand that. And please don't find nothing in my car. What the hell? the hell my vote cuz this [ __ ] is crazy and I don't supposed to feel no way cuz I'm getting racially profiled. >> Who said you were racing profile? >> Why? What? He ain't You know why he stopped me? >> I pulled up here late. >> All right. All right. But you know why he stopped me? He said cuz I was pulling in direct I was pulling in driveways stores and and pulling right back out. Did I Is that a law? I can't pull in. I CAN'T PULL IN NO [ __ ] STORES. >> THAT not reasonable. >> How is that reasonable suspicion? >> Slow down. How is it reasonable? So, I'm trying to I'm trying to talk. I'm trying to calm down, fool. Forgive me. Forgive me. All right. I'm going to calm down right now. Forgive me. >> All right. >> So, you telling me I'm breaking the law? >> I didn't say that. >> All right. Well, you said you All right. But I'm telling you what he just said. >> See, I know you ain't. You dick sucking, man. You dick sucking. You dick sucking. That's it. You don't want to be You don't want to speak the truth. You want to ride that blue line. >> YEAH. YEAH. CUZ YOU NOT TALKING TO ME. I SEE WHAT YOU TRYING TO DO. YOU WANT TO RIDE with them. Come on, MAN. RIGHT IS RIGHT. Wrong is wrong, FOOL. >> RIGHT is because you just heard him. >> Parking the car in yards and pulling out again isn't a crime. The driver tried to explain that. But one officer said that normal people don't do it. If the police get to decide what's normal, well then we're all in for some serious trouble. Because what if it's normal to go to three stores, not find what you were looking for, and give up? What if it's normal to pull into the wrong yard? >> He pulled me cuz I turned in the driveway, turned in the store. All right, THAT WAS SUSPICIOUS. WHAT CRIME IS SUSPICIOUS? IS IT A FELONY OR A MISDEMEANOR? COME ON, FOOL. >> Come on, fool. [ __ ] ain't dumb to this [ __ ] >> [ __ ] ain't dumb to this [ __ ] We going right downtown. Hey, I RECORDED YOU WAY BEFORE Y'ALL PULLED ME. RECORDING YOU. I KNEW YOU WERE GOING TO PULL ME. Come on, man. NO. LOOK. [ __ ] BAGGING OVER THERE TO FIND SOMETHING. THEY PROBABLY GOING TO PLANT SOMETHING. THEY WANT ME so bad. They're wearing the camera. Yeah. What that mean? [ __ ] want me so bad THEY GOING TO PLANT something on me. Mother don't want me recording or nothing. Hey, excuse me. Can I get your name and badge number? >> Can I get you? As the situation dragged on, the officers kept tearing through the car like the legal basis for the stop was hidden somewhere inside. The driver sarcastically said they planned something on him because he didn't know what was worse, police incompetence or their enthusiasm. And honestly, can we really 100% disagree with what he was saying? >> Where we at, Carson? No. They going to find a reason to take me to jail, especially him. No, it's really him. I know I told you that. I'm apologize cuz I ain't mean to buy my uh I don't know cuz I I get emotion. I wear my emotions on my sleeve. And if you think this stop right here, right, I know you probably wishing I go to jail, too. But it's all right. It's all right. I ain't breaking out one law. [ __ ] told me he pulled me cuz I was turning in houses and stores. YEAH, CUZ Y'ALL FOLLOWING ME 40 [ __ ] MINUTES. Come on, man. That [ __ ] ain't right, fool. [ __ ] SEE EVERYTHING ON MY CAR RIGHT THERE. THAT AIN'T GOOD ENOUGH. THAT AIN'T good enough. They want to BRING THE DOG, MAN, AND SAY THE DOG HITTING THE DOG AIN'T DO A [ __ ] THING BUT PLAY WITH HIM. COME ON, MAN. >> That dog ain't DO [ __ ] BUT PLAY WITH YOU. I'M WATCHING YOU GUYS. Come on, man. That [ __ ] is not right. Cuz >> weed in your car. >> Now he smell weed in my car. >> In the end, the officers decided to move on to the driver, searching him as if the last piece of evidence was somewhere hidden on his body. The driver was verbally sharp but didn't resist, while the officer were physically aggressive without any legal basis. A mix of verbal distrust and physical force usually leads to lawsuits, but the officers clearly weren't thinking about that at the moment. >> If I smell weed in your car, I could have certain now. So now you saying you smell weed. >> But if your dog didn't hit Yeah, you shouldn't cuz you sound crazy, man. >> I don't sound crazy. >> You sound crazy, man. >> I do this for a living. >> Yeah, I know you do. and just arrest any black man. Look, he he looking. He How long they gonna search that [ __ ] He f to find something. I'mma go to jail cuz they going to make it their business to find something. We going What could they possibly They f to pull something out they hat. They f to pull something out their hat. >> They're wearing a camera. >> They f to pull something out their hat. Look at him. Look at him. All in the wind. Come on, car. He all in the the THE RIM. COME ON, MAN. You going to go? You going to skip the hood? Check the hood of the car. >> Look at him. >> Put your hands up there. I'm going to search you for >> Hey, can I ask you this though? Before >> put your hands up there. Shut up and put your hands up. >> See, now shut up and put my hands up there. Come on, man. You quit talking to me like that. >> Put your hands up there. All right. I'm not going to look. He trying to trying to promote me to do something. You got TO PULL ON ME. ALL YOU GOT TO DO TELL ME TELL ME WHAT YOU WANT ME TO DO. >> WELL, SHUT YOUR ASS AROUND. >> YOU TELL ME. YOU AIN'T GOT TO PULL ON ME LIKE THAT, MAN. I ain't GOING TO DO [ __ ] TO YOU, BOY. WHO THE [ __ ] GOING TO GO TO JAIL? >> Hold your money, >> man. I ain't put it on the hood. I ain't holding [ __ ] I ain't holding [ __ ] >> While they pushed him onto the hood, the officers kept telling him he needed to calm down. Interesting how police always use the words calm down at the exact moment they escalate physical contact. It's like choking someone and telling them to breathe. In law, there's a term for this, state [music] induced escalation. If anyone wants to begin to understand why regular citizens scream about freedoms, just watch this video from the beginning. >> Come on, man. I ain't It's going to be ON YOU. OH, YOU GOT MY HANDS ON THE HOOD. YOU PUSHING me on the hood. >> I ain't going to do [ __ ] >> I'mma do whatever y'all need me to do. If you want my hands behind me, just tell me. I'MMA DO IT. YOU AIN'T GOT TO PUT YOUR HANDS ON ME NOW. YOU AIN'T, MAN. YOU TALKING ABOUT TALKING TO HE PULLING on me. All you got to do is give me a direction. >> I told you money, >> man. THAT'S AFTER YOU PUSH ME. >> That's after you pushing on me. >> Find a reason. They looking for a reason. YOU WANT TO CHECK MY DICK, TOO? GO IN. GO UNDER MY NUTS. GRIP MY DICK. GO AHEAD. >> Put it in there. You want to check my dick, too? >> [ __ ] It's crazy. >> Cuz if you going to arrest me, just tell me, big dog. I'mma put my hands behind my back. Y'all ain't got to rough me up. >> I know y'all won't beat on me, man. I know y'all won't beat on me. >> Come on, cuz. Look how y'all going to let him do that to me. And yeah, if I have did anything, y'all would have threw me to the ground. >> Take my >> Yeah, I don't want that [ __ ] cuz I don't need nothing from y'all. Let me live. Let me live peacefully. >> You know, >> come on, man. How the [ __ ] I'm going to BE PEACEFUL? Y'ALL RACIALLY PROFILING ME. >> OKAY. >> Come on, man. >> And then you going to let the let the LITTLE MIGOS GRAB ME LIKE THAT. COME ON, C. WHAT THE [ __ ] >> What the [ __ ] did I do besides talk? Give me my [ __ ] Is that it? I WHAT THE [ __ ] I WANT? THEN YOU JUST THROW ME TO THE GROUND. >> THE driver asked them to just arrest him if that's what they wanted because at least the procedure would be clear. The officers wanted everything except that control without responsibility. That's the purest form of police ego theater. And if you're wondering whether this case also will collapse into a shocking moment when corrupt cops get called out and owned, keep watching. throwing ass. >> THEN YOU JUST TRY TO THROW ME TO THE GROUND AND YOU going to tell me what not the [ __ ] to do. >> HAVE A GOOD DAY. >> NO, you have a good day, dick sucker. >> Uh, dick sucker. >> [ __ ] street. Y'all time out, >> man. Well, I ain't taking THAT MONEY. I BET YOU I WON'T TAKE IT, BUT I DON'T GIVE A [ __ ] WHAT YOU DO WITH IT. I WON'T take it. The [ __ ] WANT ME TO GO TO JAIL. THAT BIG ASS STUPID ass looking white boy. The [ __ ] wrong with y'all? >> D, you know what's wrong with them. HEY, YOU PROBABLY [ __ ] YOUR DAUGHTER. YOU LOOK LIKE YOU [ __ ] YOUR DAUGHTER, >> MAN. I ain't got to leave right now. >> You need to leave before. >> LET ME LEAVE BEFORE HE TAKE ME TO JAIL. LET ME LEAVE BEFORE HE TAKE ME TO JAIL. SUCK THESE NUTS RIGHT HERE. YOU You suck the nuts. Coward. >> Yeah. Yeah. You a coward. You and you probably [ __ ] your daughter, too. >> [ __ ] dick suckers. Crimp. This how I give it up. When they finally finished the search, the officers didn't find anything worth mentioning. Nothing illegal, nothing that could justify 40 minutes of following the dog tearing apart the car, searching his body, and provoking an arrest. The driver knew it, and that's why he was angry. And honestly, it's hard to blame him. Just think for a second on how you would feel. >> [ __ ] Where? I I need my stuff. I need my firearm. What y'all do with my stuff? >> Trunks, wait for you to shut the [ __ ] up. >> No, now I got to shut the [ __ ] up. That [ __ ] is crazy. Get my [ __ ] out my trunk. These [ __ ] can suck dick. Crab. Let's get the dick suckers. I don't care. You see I got that big pole right there. I don't care. the [ __ ] they going to do? Pulling your dick suckers. In the end, the officers told him he could go. No citation, no violation, no explanation, no apology. The classic police formula. If we don't find anything, everything gets forgotten. Well, not exactly, cuz this guy didn't let it slide and post the video on YouTube. Now, we can only hope the right person sees it. In the meantime, let's talk about the last case for today, which includes another interesting ID refusal. Speaking of shocking moments where corrupt cops get called out and owned, this happened in front of a local power plant where a man was just filming the facility from a public road. In normal countries, that's known as freedom of information, but in this city, it looked like an opening scene of a coup attempt. An officer immediately approached with the energy of something suspicious happening. >> Hello. How are you? How you doing, >> sir? Why are you taking pictures? Hey, sit here and talk to me for a second. Okay. >> Why you put >> I want you to talk to me for a second. What are you doing by our power plant? Filming it. >> What's your name? >> What are you doing? Sergeant Hurst. >> Why would you touch me? >> Okay, cuz I told you to stop. I was talking to you. You got called in. Yes, you are. >> For what? You got called in here for filming our >> power plant. >> Suspicious, man. >> Suspicious. >> What do we have at our power plants? >> I didn't make this stuff. I got called down here to check you out. Let me see some ID. >> Nope. >> Excuse me. >> Yes. >> Okay. Come here. >> Okay. >> Set it down. >> Okay. Where's your ID at? >> Where's your ID at? >> Okay. You're failing to give me your ID. >> A lot of break. >> Huh? >> The ladder broke. Well, he didn't listen to me. >> What law? What do you love? >> The officer demanded identification from the guy with the camera as if he had stopped in front of the Pentagon instead of a power plant. When the auditor refused to hand over his personal information, the officer immediately moved to seize his body, pushing his equipment and searching his pockets. And if you still think the cops are just doing their job, then I ask you, what job are they doing here? >> Excuse me? >> What law broken? >> Why are you filming around our >> our power plant? Okay. >> With our security and don't don't listen to him. >> Will you let go of me, please? >> No. >> No. Cuz I'm going to try to decide what you can do. >> Obviously, what? >> Okay. Are you a constitutionist? What's your deal? >> Yes, I am. I'm a first auditor. >> Okay. >> And I'm going to have your badge. >> That's fine. Legally, I want your information. >> What are you doing? >> Okay. >> Yep. You searching, chat. >> I want to figure out right now. >> I'm going to figure out where ID is. >> You're searching my pockets. Searching me right now. I have not broken any water. >> So, why are you filming our >> our power plant? >> What's your name number? >> Why are we filming our power plant >> number? Is your Is your body cam on by chance? It >> sure is. Is yours on? >> Absolutely. >> So, >> why are you filming our >> film making public? I can film. >> Do you not understand the security measures at the end? >> Security. >> The officer explained that all of this was about national security because apparently power plants collapsed from photographs. When the police used the word security, they usually mean their sense of control, not the security of the facility. Then the auditor explained he just like the water flowing the birds. Sounds trivial, but that's the whole point. Real freedom means you don't have to justify anything to the police. >> Okay. >> It's a cool building. It's kind of cool. Birds up there. It's kind of weird how the water comes down. It's a cool thing. >> Okay. Give me just a second. >> Am I detaining still? >> Well, excuse me. Why you bumping into >> dude? Come on. Really? >> Seriously, bro. I didn't bump into you like this. >> Give me one second. What's going anytime? time did you? >> Then we have a private call from a power plant employee and the officer theatrically repackaged the story right in front of him, claiming the auditor was trying to cause a problem. I love that narrative. When the police can't find a law, they try to find motives. Interestingly, the employee confirmed the auditor never stepped on private property at any point. I'm willing to bet the officer didn't expect that. >> Go onto the property. Sir. Sir. >> [sighs and gasps] >> This is >> Hey, it's Sergeant Hurst with Police Department. How are you? >> I'm fine, sir. How are you? >> Good. We're out with this individual. I think he's just out here trying to cause. He's a activist. >> He he he didn't want to sit and talk to us and and uh you know, wouldn't stop for me when I asked him his name. won't give me his information. So anyway, did he ever come on the property or >> uh No, sir. He made real sure he stayed outside the curb line. >> Okay. Yeah. >> Uh kept squatting behind the bushes and I It's power plant, so I have no idea what he's doing. And I'm like, uhoh. >> Yeah, >> he's just down here trying to to cause a stink. And I don't know if he's live filming in it or or something, but >> anyways. >> All right. Well, I think he's just down here trying to get a ride out of people. >> Okay. >> Okay. >> Good, sir. Appreciate your time. >> Okay. Bye. >> The best part was when the officer asked if the auditor wanted police to investigate suspicious calls. That's the internal trick. Police use public safety as cover for suppressing public transparency. The auditor finally got the magic sentence. He was free to go. That was their way of saying they hadn't found a single law they could use. >> Okay. >> Detaining and arresting are two different things. Correct. When I get called to a suspicious call, do you want me to investigate it? It's easier if you talk to me. >> Okay. You're free to go. See you. any lesson. >> Stop and talk to me when I ask you next time. >> What laws does I have to talk to you? >> Why would you put a hands on a grown ass man like that? >> You know what? Just leave. >> I'm not going to sit here public. You [ __ ] leave >> and listen to your stuff. I hope you're proud of yourself. I'm sure your mom's proud of you. >> Person in a rat activity. I have the right to film anybody want anything I want public. You're coming out in [ __ ] public land and grabbing something like that. It's [ __ ] [ __ ] >> See you. detain the blow. >> Of course, the officer couldn't leave without a final blow, so he tried to give a lesson in obedience and told the auditor to talk when he was told to. In translation, the problem wasn't filming. The problem was disobedience. And then, as if the situation was already bad enough, within just a few seconds, everything went in the worst possible direction. >> Do you not understand the security measures that >> I don't give a [ __ ] about security measures, >> okay? >> It's a cool building. It's kind of cool. birds up there. It's kind of weird how the water comes down. It's quick. >> Okay, give me just a second. >> Yep. >> Am I detained still? Whoa. Bumping me, bro. >> Come on. Really? >> Seriously, bro. >> I didn't like this. You should notice. I'm just filming the public. Come on. Come on, Sergeant. Am I still detained? >> Am I detained? You should know. He has no question. >> Just hang out a minute. >> Okay. >> Call my guy down at the power plant. Okay. All right, good. So, yeah, chat. Okay, I'm willing to bet you didn't understand why the cops arrested the poor guy and why they'd instantly changed their minds the second they started doing it. Well, now we're going to see the same event from an officer's perspective. And all you can see is the officer hitting the man, then arresting him, even though he was the one who hit him. How does that make any sense? >> Did you hear him? >> At any time, did you go onto the property? That's what he's asking. Come on. Go. In a private conversation with the employee, the officer confirmed the auditor hadn't broken any law yet still continued with the process. If the police know there's no crime and keep going anyway, then legal standards mean nothing. And of course, since they had no real reason to arrest him, even though they tried, they had no evidence to justify it and the situation had to be deescalated. >> You won't tell the law broken. So he's already searched my pockets. He's already >> and arresting are two different things. Correct. >> When I get called to a suspicious call, do you want me to investigate it? >> It's easier if you talk to me. >> Okay, you're free to go. See you. >> Did you learn your lesson today, sir? Don't put hands on me when I ask you. >> You know what? Just sleep. I'm not going to sit here. You [ __ ] sergeant stuff. I hope you're proud of yourself. I am proud of myself. [ __ ] first amendment rat activity. I have the right to kill anybody I want. Anything invol public. >> Luckily, this man said he would file a complaint and take the case to a higher level. And honestly, that's the best part of the story. Police think an incident ends when they let the citizen go, but the real story begins afterward. So, what do you think? What punishments do these cops deserve for everything they showed us here? Write it in the comments. You think today's cases were the bottom of the barrel, but trust me, they're just the warm-up. There are stories out there that push the limits even further, and we're going to break them down in the next video. Don't blink because it only gets wilder from here. See you in the next one.
