in detention for 22 hours after being released he was not charged with any misdemeanor or felony the individual who threatened to take his life was also successfully rescued Chief churos was fired after this incident 4 days later if you think this was the only cop who realized they were caught then probably you aren't aware of this next case so what's what are you doing I'm just I'm just chilling I don't want to go look I can't I can't sit in the pocket lot cuz I'm Liv out here where you you have some IDE what's your IDE or is it in the car it's some because what's what's the you can make it super difficult but you do I'm I'm just wondering why why y'all I've literally been on the phone just talk I know go and get your ID and then while while you give us your ID she can speak with you but you need to identify yourself so go and get your ID so right now what it falls under ising yes because like if you were like getting gas waiting on somebody like if you were doing anything other than just kind of like hanging out it wouldn't be an issue on June 4th 2021 Officer James was accompanied by two other deputies officer pittz and officer Mosley they confronted an individual who parked his vehicle in a gas station and was on a phone call while roaming outside near his car in Locust Grove Georgia watch what the officers do after they see him roaming shows up 54 M quick trip do Dodge Charger oh what's what's going on man what are you hanging out are you meeting somebody are you waiting on somebody are you lost I live on here so the reason I'm asking we've been here how long probably 20 minutes 30 minutes 30 minutes got had got any gas you had gone in and got any food you parked at a gas pump and I know I know the Tank's not on the side it's on the other side right no I know the tank is the gas so what's what do you do I'm just I'm just chilling I don't want to go no I can't I can't sit in the parking lot cuz I I live out here where you you have some idea what's your idea or is it in the car it's on but what's what's the problem you can make it super diff but you do I'm I'm just wondering why why yall i' literally been on the phone just talk I know go and get your ID and then while while you give us your ID she can speak with you but you need to identify yourself so go and get your ID so right now what it falls under is yes because like if you were like getting gas waiting on somebody like if you were doing anything other than just kind of like hanging out it wouldn't be an issue well I I've been on the phone we know this area is known for narcotic activity it's known for criminal activity so that's reason another reason why we're speaking to you want to make sure that's not a foot right here people will park they'll go over there they'll wait right here they'll wait for somebody they'll they'll like that and under you have no idea well I live out here I I believe you do you know you have your ID with you is is the license or the address on your license current is that okay what's your current address that's everybody down the street and I've lived out here for a long time cuz you know everybody but i' I've never been like I know a lot of DET if you no F gas go so the state's definition of lering is doing something not like the nor hanging out in the gas pump not like a you hear what I'm saying so we we have to just come get out now if you to like take off and run as soon as you see us over here the Georgia loitering law requires individuals to identify themselves only if they are causing alarm or posing a safety threat to those around them officer pittz fails to mention this requirement while citing the law notice the officer's improper approach during the encounter why would I do that well so that's it that would add to it but you didn't so it's it makes it look a lot better you get what I'm saying well but I I literally come here all the time I live I live here that's what I'm trying to tell you yeah that's fine but you can't just if you're if you don't have if you're not doing any business if you're not getting gas you're not going actually going to go in there I just had a phone conversation well that's cool but now that we've had this communication it's what they call dispelling the alarm now that we're able to to figure out okay this guy doesn't have any issues or anything like that then we can be by our marry way but we never met you a day in our life I never I've never met you I've never got she's never met you he's never met you so we're just doing our jobs what we're get paid to do 23 all right Mr Lawrence finish up the phone call do your business if you got to and then head on home all right yeah but kind of crazy look it's like I've never go look up Ling in in Georgia Co my my my father's an entire share okay I know I've never like I said this this a is known for for joid transactions we're makeing sure none of that's occurring here tonight in the time and I haven't spoken to no and I know you saw the weird girl run up to my car and I'm like yeah they just came from a party a bunch of a whole ton of drugs and we're sitting right there with our blue lights I do a lot of stuff my car is really well know I race at Silver Dollar I do traic BS I don't do no rug at and like he said earlier the reason we got out with you and asked you and then just like immediately throw you in handcuffs it's called dispelling The Alarm that's all that happened so but your the do these change like can you make them just one regular color uh I can turn them off with a switch okay so the blue lights you can't have blue lights anybody ever tell you that I mean I you don't have to do it right now just before you get on the road no blue lights all right um but other than that look you're good just future reference you got to look at it from our point of view okay my dad is a retired Chief Deputy then you definitely should defin understand our job then then you should then you should understand if you if if you're if you say all these things and if you're in the profession you would understand why we're do that's why I had no problem we definitely appreciate we appreciate the cooperation no it's not random we sat there for a while we we deserved you we're watching okay this guy's not getting gas he's not going in there we're watching everybody come and go so it drew already drew our attention then we saw somebody that we dealt with earlier with a whole bunch of drugs around here coming up to you like okay and they said hey I see your car everywhere I live out here they said we see your car SRT on the side I said Thank you which makes sense and that's the reason why we came over here to introduce ourselves dis spell the alarm make sure there's nothing nefarious going on now we're going to be about our way cuz that now if if we thought something nefarious was going on then we'd be going a whole different direction you understand but we have to dispel alarm make sure nothing nefarious is going on you understand that I I I guess good night Sir all right have a good night I don't have one on me I'm Officer James it's officer pits that's officer mosy I mean and and I definitely encourage you to go look up the co-x ocga Laing l t e r i n g look it up the deputies leave the scene without arresting the individual consequently 3 days later offic pitz was terminated from her position if you think this was the maximum cops can go unlawful and realize they got caught wait until you watch this next case we're investigating something you're not allowed on the phone put it in there I'm not going to ask youe it's a lawful order so it's a lawful order put it in there that sound dumb put it in there put your pH there put phone I don't care I'm not going to ask you

a warrant despite this the search was conducted and he was also put under arrest the driver of the vehicle was also arrested for interfering in the passenger arrest all of them were later released from the scene the identities of the officers remain unknown if you think this was the last cop who realized they were caught then probably you aren't aware of this next case so you can hang up the phone or I'm going to take the phone that's how this is going to work oh absolutely not so she said hang up the phone and they're going to take the phone cuz at this point I'm being threatened it's not a threat I've asked you several times and you're just going to go back and forth with me a reason as to why my is being taken so the fire is going to be under investigation by the fire department so stop stop don't interrup me to do with my device interrup me this is an officer from the normal Police Department on February 8th 2023 the police officers from the normal Police Department responded to a call regarding a fire eruption in an apartment of a college student named Taylor Brown the apartment is situated in Normal toown Illinois Miss Brown was taken to the police station upon the officer's request for questioning however despite waiting for several minutes she was not interviewed watch what happened when she requested to be released all right are you who are your phone with so we're going to have to seize your phone so go ahead and hang up seize my phone for what go ahead go ahead and hang up why go ahead and hang up they want to seize my phone but I'm not under arrest for you're not under arrest but your phone's going to be seized um no no we're going to you're going to hang up the phone um SE my phone but I'm not in c three of them all around me face for a second you you listen for a second so the fire is going to be under investigation that's fine okay and we're going to seize your phone why because we are cuz the fire is under investigation I need to know where my pH so you can hand me the phone or I can take the phone but I need to know where my phone's being they're not telling me a reason why my phone I just I just did but you said it's under investigation what y so so listen to me the fire her phone so the fire is going to be under investigation and your phone's going to be seized sh yes everybody's phone's being seized oh no because you you never told me that my phone would be seized when I got here she didn't tell me that okay and when I and when I got here the detective wasn't here we were waiting for the detective so the detective is going to seiz your phone no one told me any of this the officers told her that they needed to seize her phone without a warrant as the investigation regarding the fire in her apartment was still underway this might be a potential violation of the Fourth Amendment where the laws protect the citizens from unreasonable searches and seizures by law enforcement watch how the situation is about to escalate okay you told me that you about to take me home okay so I'm not going to sit here and argue with you so you can hang up you can hang up with your the phone with and I can take you home yep no they're not taking my phone and letting me leave I don't know what I'm going it's 3: it's 4:00 a.m. I can't go without my phone how is she going to go where where am I going to go without my phone if I do the interview that's not that's up to you no you're not doing an interview well if I do the interview can you can go do the you can go do the interview but your phone's going to currently be seized can I talk to him first can he come down here cuz nope we're we're not going to do that so you can hang up the phone or I'm gonna take the phone that's how this is going to work oh absolutely not so she said hang up with the phone and they're going to take the phone cuz at this point I'm being a threaten it's not a threat I've asked you several times and you're just going to go back and forth with me a reason as to why my is being taken so the fire is going to be under investigation by the fire department stop stop don't that have to do with my Dev so don't interrupt me the fire there going to be under investigation don't ever tell me not to interrupt you and I so the phone's going to be seized so in a second I going to take it what I'm asking you I'm asking you a reason I'm not being rebuttal I'm asking you a reason so if you would like to talk to detective you can why is my phone being SE if you would like to talk to the detective that is seizing it you can do you wish to talk to him yeah but do you want to give an interview no you're not no I wanted to ask him why my phone's being seized cuz she said she could take me home but without my phone that doesn't make sense it it sounds like so are you going to talk to the detective no I need I need everyone to come come and tell me why my phone's being seed cuz no one told me this until right now this second so cuz it seems like that's the question so the question it seems like he's being petty cuz he woke up and I won't do the interview so this was so the so the question is are you going to talk to the detective as a matter of fact are you recording this yeah okay are you going to talk to the detective and provide an interview yes or no is that with or without the phone without the phone the phone's being seized are you talking to the detective or no the phone I don't know that that's not my question I need an answer to that before I get so the question is are you going to provide an interview no unless want to hand me the phone I have to know if my phone is go hand me the phone do not kick okay push your legs up stop relax relax Mom not letting go I promise relax Mom not letting go we just want your phone that's okay we just want your phone they trying to give me with no protection get they got me stop kicking stop kicking they trying to give me Hey Taylor give me your hand give me your
