up this is really the lieutenant adamantly refused to exit his vehicle yet he extended his hands outside the the window in an attempt to communicate with the officers repeatedly informing them of his rank despite his insistence he remained inside the vehicle one of the officers resorted to using pepper spray prompting the lieutenant to finally step out so back let's go all the way back to square one okay I turned around on you at food line I actually came out of Cost Plus and I came up behind you I saw you before you turn and you had no tags displayed I I see it but part of the law it has to be in the license plate bracket I understand it's paper and I understand why it's there yes but at that time I had no IDE I didn't know that you had a vehicle registration till I approached your car and at that point I was too busy dealing with you to deal with the tag you want me to wipe your eyes so the reason we did that is because we followed you for a mile and a half with lights and siring on and you didn't pull over I understand you want to get to a low wi area a a well lit area I get that but when we follow you that long look at look at the climate this day and against everybody against us against y'all you know what I mean yeah I'm not out to hurt you and I know you don't want to hurt me that's not what it's about what it's about is making sure that everybody goes home at the end of the day so when you don't stop and you continue to proceed our suspicions are raised what's going on in the car what don't he want us to see so you pull into here and if you were to just compli with the simple commands that we were giving you originally it would have been done and over with and you would have got back on your car and you'd be gone by now but you wouldn't get out the car you wouldn't comply it was it just looking out the mirror and seeing your guns out already that's what I was ask like what's what's going on I was just and then and and not to mention you have just confused just I know you weren't reaching but not to mention you had a gun at your right leg you you get our perspective though on the safety issue for us as well you get that yeah I I I do I do and and that's why I put my hands out and I was asking what and and when you put your hands out they were like this outside the window how do we know nothing's in your hands and I was telling you stick your hands out stick your hands out stick your hands out then I was having you step out you wouldn't do any of it you following what I'm saying Okay so this can go one or two ways okay I I don't want to hem you up I'm going to be straight up with you you're a good man you've made the lieutenant in the Army how hard was that that wasn't an easy task was it no it wasn't and and what would this what would this do to your career it would hurt it and I'm in I'm uh in the middle of getting promoted right now anyway so yeah to what Captain or first lieutenant um to first lieutenant okay the lieutenant is requesting at least $1 million in Damages and for the court to rule that the two officers violated his rights so we could be concerned that somebody is targeting our police vehicles or is looking inside there to see confidential information on the screen or other things so this is a reasonable responsibility to protect confidential information reason who's responsibility it's Reon

of the precin we taking some pictures of inside of the Poli dumb guy I'll take what a dumb guy taking pictures of the inside of the vehicles that are public property I'm on a public sidewalk taking pictures of everything that is open visible from my eyes okay which is first amendment protected activity and the tough guy shows up here and tells me I can't take pictures taking pictures of the inside of the car is that's oh you too you want to get on my case too about taking pictures Sergeant Edwards argues that Mr tiger cannot film inside the police cruisers however the first amendment protects the citizens so that individuals have the freedom to film any public property and in this case police cruisers watch how several other officers join in the scene trying to cover up I'll be out at uh and you dude words Edwards yes something like that yeah something like that okay what are you doing taking pictures what am I doing taking pictures what's the problem taking pictures are the inside of the vehicle from the computer what law is that what am I breaking I don't know that's called private property you can't you that's private property come here come here Sergeant you can't take a picture come here Sergeant come here no I don't need to come here I'm good what it says over here the outsides if you'd like what does it say I don't know what does it say you tell me you don't know how to read any of you guys know how to read what's your goal sir what do you need to do I was minding my own business this guy comes over here gets in my face and gives me unlawful directives can you understand why we may I don't need to understand anything well I'm going to explain why he was concerned why so we could be concerned that somebody is targeting our police vehicles or is looking inside there to see confidential information on the screen or in other things okay so this is it reasonable who responsibility to protect confidential information is reasonable responsibility it's reason to ask is it your responsibility to protect confidential information sir exactly exactly so next time when a when a law abiding citizen inspects his own property what's your property and you're my servant that's my property everything that's on you my property except your personal effects this building my property this vehicle my property you all you you you you you every one of you work for me I tell you what to do I tell you how to do it I pay your wages right that's right and you answer to meing so when you get on my case being a law abiding citizen quiet I'm not talking to you okay quiet when when I'm a law abiding citizen and you get in my face and you start threatening me and you call your Bobbies out here assuming that I'm a criminal because you intend to do something against me guess what what are you going to do you're going to get a piece of my action what are you my freedom of speech all of us have a lot of things we need to get back to your job I didn't call you I didn't call you we here until who called you you are not here so what's going on what do you want who called you your situation your scene your level of Engagement is going to make the police be here and I do think that's your goal I literally think what you are doing is trying to create a scene to get police attention report it on I was walking down I was walking on a sidewalk have this Interac on a YouTube whatever you think so whatever your go I don't care what you think I want you to know very clearly sir that's right you are taking up valuable resources that could be helping the city I call you because we are focused on you here's how you can end this so I think that's important this is how you can end this what do you need go back to your job and mind your own damn business you need to not Point your camera inside of police vehicles and record information off of our computers according to whom don't do it according to whom that's it according to whom sir what law is that okay what law is that g ORS code that tells me that tells me that I am not lawfully allowed to look at anything my eyes can see on a public sidewalk what law is that we are going to leave and we understand that you are not going to point inside of cameras unless I'm breaking the law you can take your orders you stay on public property you stay out of a roadway understand you say out of the roadway I'm protesting at this point so I will stand wherever the hell I want good day sir get lost that's how you should have reacted in the first place you come out here and you harass me a law Biden citizen that's the reaction you're going to get servants get lost sick and tired of police officer harassing law biding citizens every day the cops failed to cite any law when Mr Ty asked for a rule that does not permit him to film the cop Cruisers after the interaction Mr tiger continued to film the cop Cruisers without any more restriction from the police as he resumed his walk along the sidewalks it is uncertain if Mr tiger pursued any legal actions against the officers involved are you carrying a firearm right now yeah okay how old are you I'm old enough to carry one huh old enough to carry one okay so the respond we got a call um said that there was a young teenager walking around body camera footage captured the interaction between the cop and a young boy stopped for carrying a weapon the cop stops him and asks him personal questions like his age to inquire if he was old enough to carry a weapon when the boy refuses to ID himself the officer seems to take it too personally so how old are you well I to one I to buy one okay so how about you show me your ID no good okay 205 I need a second one step it up refuse an ID for what cuz the call we got was that there a teenager all right here caring this arm I don't know how old you are okay that's the thing like well so I'm out here on a lawful call okay all you got to do is ID yourself you're 21 then I cut you loose you're good to go you know how it is yes it is no it's exactly how it works I have every right as a law enfor enforcement officer to request ID from anybody open I can refuse okay then go ahead turn around turn around back sir okay why am I being arrested you know you're being detained for what CU you're refusing the ID you're refusing to cooperate I don't need you're armed with a firearm you can't detain someone just for carrying a gun but I but I contain you detain you for refusing ID somebody carrying firearm not 205 show one detained come on you know what that's exactly how the law says what does it say the law says hold on which the which code hold on hold on you going to keep interrupting me or you going to go ahead I'm sorry so I can request ID anybody okay to prove age for anybody open carrying I don't believe that you're 21 you look younger than 21 okay the call that we got was approximately 16-year-old we're out here open carrying okay so that's what I'm responding to do I look 16 I don't know how old you are cuz you won't I yourself I don't believe you're 21 if you're 21 then that's fine I'm 21 I'm over 21 so now you will be so you're not 21 huh so you're 20 no I'm over 21 I said you said you will be 21 I'm over I said over I promise I'm well over and I also don't consent to uh I'm not searching you seing he sees my property I I unpoled you and I put it right here took it from me okay we can do this all day and 3802 you know you know 30802 go ahead let me hear what does it say you go ahead what is the premise on which I have to which on which I have to ID what's that what's the premise on which I have to ID if I was arrested not you're not you're being detained and I as a pece officer have I have the right to request ID from you and to obtain ID from you for anybody that I think might be violating Texas op lack car he finally agrees to identify himself when the cops proceed to detain him unlawfully I'll give you permission to take it out and Che look at my DD now you you already put me in the situation now you want to cooperate yeah cuz you're unlawfully detaining me so it's your mag that's mag uh check my front pocket or on my breast my breast pocket nothing your breast you don't have a yeah inside I thought it was in there check my you have keys so now you have no way to ID yourself y you got no way to ID yourself you got no way to prove that you're 21 all right can I go into this pocket and see what this is do you have an ID in there no you don't have no idea if it's just if it feels like ke it feels like keys and it feels like a knife so that's fine you take it out I don't care if it's a knife it's not a knife okay turn back I don't have to IDE okay until I've been lawfully arrested right and you're detaining me for not iding I'm detaining you so circumstances change when you're open carrying right what's you're open carrying right now okay even if I just saw you open carrying you can't do that that's UNC sorry even if I saw you no no no so the law specifically States any police officer can request identification from anybody who's open carrying okay open specifically open carrying when when I turn the corner I could clearly see that you're open carrying okay okay so that so so that that's it go one at a time so like a 50-year-old man who was clearly 50 uh he if he was carrying you can not take his ID if if I could if I could easily determine that this guy's well over 21 then no every circumstance is different okay every circumstance did but you got to go I explained to you what the circumstances of the call was right yeah the circumstances of the call was that there's a teenager so why would you some illegally carrying that because if you're not CU because if you're not 21 you can't open carrying the state of Texas you can't even own a firearm inex makes you think I'm under the edge of 21 well well you look on a younger 21 to me and then you also refuse tode last time you saw someone we see we see people out here all the time okay right there there's no way knowing who how who's who's old and who's not but now you're telling me you don't even have ID on you to confirm your age right so so so you're just making the situation even worse so I sawu no she's my supervis you can talk to her all day long Stuart uh nordine remember Joshua nordine he pulled me over on 183 he searched my well he didn't search my car refus and he got the dog it was probably like two years ago 3 years ago uh Xavier ring the bell uh there's a wild guy charger white charger white yes ma'am okay I don't know how old do I have the time with [Applause] I it was two years ago it was some you know well he refused the ID initially but you know I'm not underage 16 no m not yeah I I'm not saying you should have it you didn't know I know no he had it he had his jacket draped over it to where his pistol was in plain view it was not concealed it was it was it was out in the open that's how I knew it was him awesome perfect so you understand the importance of if you're going to open carry have some ID on you you realize that you still have to be able to prove that you're legally able to carry whatever firearm you car you realize that right two two Law Enforcement Officers peace officers if you are question if breaking the law you will break you will breaking a law but when it comes to Firearms specifically sidearms specifically okay specifically sidearms or uh rather pistols excuse me specifically any peace officer question anybody open carrying can you can you pull up the code for that so I can I need f up the code that's not what it says dude and you know specifically there is law that says you can't detain people Bas on the basis of firearms alone you got this you good yeah okay so I'm going to download this for you it's not loaded you got a MAG in there yeah but it's not loaded oh I got you okay you want to put it in for me well I I will for if you want me to well that makes it feel safe no are you okay with just I'm going to give this to you as soon as I leave you do whatever you want okay what about the MS I'm I'm giving it to you don't put it in the gun I'm saying as soon as I leave do whatever you want if you want to load it soon as I take off from here that's fine you can load it I don't care what you do all right I'm going to give you my card if you got any questions you want to follow up that's fine your name absolutely absolutely I'd be great give me just a second when the cops realized they had no right to detain him for lawful possession of a weapon they then proceed to explain to him the importance of carrying an ID in the state of Texas however in the mean time they had already wasted time harassing the boy for legally carrying a firearm pass a call for service number no go so for this incident okay if you want to look it up you want to contact the PD that's number you're going to reference I'll know everything well everything's on body camera anyways but I'll know everything that occurred okay all right any questions no dude has some ID on you it's that simple you need to that's the whole point of the Constitution Fourth Amendment that's fine okay secure in my person and papers we okay that's fine that's fine and in the state of Texas as a Texas peace officer if I see somebody open carrying a firearm and I have any reason to suspect that they may be unlawfully carrying that firearm that's sidearm I can request I like prob or Reasonable Suspicion it's Reasonable Suspicion it's reasonable arable suspicion that's what I just got done explain it to you yeah and and the violation was you being underage not 21 that's what it is but steuart said he's probably over 21 hand exactly okay that's that's what she got here I don't know who you are right no no no I I get that you weren't going to take me out of the handcuffs regardless until I told you yeah so I could confirm okay that's okay whether it took a minute longer 2 minutes longer whatever all right up that up to that up to that point you being okay well you can just say you don't care about it of course I do of course I do I care about both G deeply but I also care about people Respec of what the law says and the law says that as a peace officer if I'm suspect anybody who's violating only though is that you said specific specifically pistol yeah because there's specific laws about pistol you know what they are Texas open carry law what's that what's the penal code so I can look it up why don't you look it up I I know what the penal code is I don't what is it say directly all right we're not going to sit here and have a you don't know it that's not what it says okay all right that's okay you're you're free to go you can look it up while you want okay you really want me to look it up for you specific I I'll help you out I will help you out while this video shows the unnecessary harassment of an innocent citizen by the cops let me see your

countered with a lawsuit accusing the paing County Deputy of leaving their client with $75,000 in medical bills due to fractured bones and a ruptured eardrum he said that he won't want to give us our

Turner was seen filming an arrest during a traffic stop near Interstate 35 Texas the traffic stop had resulted in the arrest of those specs involved watch what officer Chelly does after he realizes that Mr Turner has recorded the entire incident on camera [Music] come back over here for me right what's that can you go stand back over where you were for me sir there's something wrong with being here yes sir there is I don't I don't want you to be in direct line with that vehicle I'd like for you to go back to where you were standing you can continue filming all you'd like but I I don't want you right here am I interfering uh well technically now you're starting to pose into somebody else's private property with your with your video videoing yes sir hey did they give you permission to film inside their truck I don't need permission on public in public somebody in somebody's vehicle I don't need permission out public no not to film us you're correct but to film inside somebody's vehicle that's an extension of their house and that is a private place so you do need somebody's permission to film inside their vehicle but is that a crime uh if they decided is yes who's they the two we got in the back of our cars if they don't want you filming or they you didn't get permission from them you can't be filming inside their cars well you guys got the door open look all I'm asking you do is go stand back over where you were even if I was back there I could still see inside the car okay so go stand back over there it's simple as that cuz right now now that I'm having to come over here and ask you to move again now you're interfering with our investigation cuz instead of me being able to focus over here I got to focus on you so if you can just go stand over there I can call a supervisor if you'd like to speak to a supervisor go ahead and call a supervisor you can make any complaints you'd like but I'm all I'm asking you to do is go stand back over there where you were just go ahead and call a supervisor okay do me a favor go stand back over there for me all right buddy I don't see what's wrong being here I'm asking you to go stand back where you were there was there was not an issue where you're standing where you were standing now there's an issue where you're at because I'm filming inside the truck right yes sir you can film us all you want we don't care we want you to do it from the safe distance so if you could go back to where you were that' be uh greatly appreciated all right if if the issue is with me filming here inside the truck I won't film inside the truck if you can go stand back where you were please there's not an issue with you filming us there's an issue with you getting any closer to the scene I'm not getting any closer than here okay do not move from here all right any closer from here we're going to have any any more AC okay I I already told you I'm not moving from here and and that's it thank you I encourage you to film thank you Sergeant here he said he over here talking just a little bit okay what's up our our Sergeant he said he's going to be over here talking in just a little bit he's here he's actually all right you got a business card or anything a business card not on me I can get you one out party in a little bit all right cool uh you need my name badge number what do you need yeah that's what I was getting that was that's what I was going to need but I can't hear over the highway Noise Okay so you need all of our badge numbers or just yours and uh I guess if the superv needs to speak with me I'll talk to him oh he doesn't need to speak to you I thought you wanted to speak to him yeah yeah I'll talk to him I mean if you don't want if you don't need to speak to him I'll tell him not to waste his time no no he's already here so I'm not going to waste his time he already in trouble over here so I'll talk to him briefly okay okay and like I said he'll be more than happy to give you anybody's name or badge number that's here okay um and if you need business cards or anything like that you get us a little bit we'll be able to get some business cards too if you'd like no just yours that's it okay okay I can I can get you one okay all right hang time for me do you have do you have your information your driver's license what's that do you have your driver's license or named dead bir for what cuz now you're a witness to this crime that we're doing what crime is that crime that we got these people in the back of these Car Store I don't know what crime they committed you don't have to know but what okay but how do I know what they did though I don't know what they did okay they broke the law they're in possession of Narcotics that's why they're in the back of our cars okay now you're telling me that okay yeah so do you have your name and dead bir no or driver's license no so you're going to refuse to be listed as a witness since you're you sat here and videotaped the entire scene if you need a copy of the video I can give you a copy of the video well yeah but we're also going to need to identify you in our report that you were here videoing so when we come to get a copy of that video we can get that all right let me talk to your super the officers accompanying officer Chelly including his supervisor Sergeant montz join in and asked for identification proof from Mr Turner after he according to them had been a witness to a crime he was threatened that if he failed to provide his identification he could be arrested too watch how the rest of the Skirmish unfolds he said that he would want to give us her name his name or dead B until he talks to our supervisor so and you're probably going to end up going to jail cuz right now you're witnessing a crime well I asked to talk to a supervisor he's here so why can I speak with them because you're refusing to give your information you'll be going to jail for failure to identify as as you're a witness to a crime so I need to give you my so I need to give you my idea to speak to your supervisor is that what you're telling me no okay I need to speak to your supervisor why do you need to speak to Super because I request to speak that because I request to speak to him and he's here okay so what's your point he's here I need to speak with him he's got you've got no part of the city right but you want to speak to our super you can you can speak to him okay yeah but you'll be in handcuffs and will'll be at the jail is that what you want to do I need to speak to your supervisor is that what you want to do I need to speak to your supervisor why aren you understanding you put yourself in this situation right here you see that you're on private property private or public you're on private property right now okay what does that what does that to do with anything do you have permission to be here did the owner trespass me well he actually this guy he doesn't want you here this guy actually did tell us he wanted you to leave that guy right there so what's his name so what's your point what's what's the guy's name that don't want me here so do you want to identify yourself so we can list you as a witness to this crime or I'm I'm just asking a simple question the guy that you just talked to he doesn't want me here yes so is he you for me to go ask him to tell you to leave himself don't do you already have that notice yes he told us when he came over here and gave me his business then why do you have to go ask him then if you would like for him to tell you himself he can tell me whatever he needs to do if he needs to tell me to leave I'll leave simple as that he needs to give me a he needs to give me a warning before I before you can trespass me well now until you identify yourself now you're forced not leave all right I need to speak to your supervisor okay Sergeant Montas following a series of verbal exchang changes between the officers and Turner eventually offers Turner an opportunity to have a detailed conversation witness how the interaction concludes let's go here argument you're not doing anything wrong and uh but here's the deal they got a point there I mean it's you're worst case scenario is that your camera would be a part of evidence but we're not going to go there because I have a camera I put your cameras going so I don't need your camera now if something were to happen to where we get into a shooting or something or and somebody gets hurt then you know what I'm taking your camera cuz that's so so you got to be careful with that in the lot in the future okay when you're doing this because on that one I I'll tell you there was a shooting on Sixth Street that happened not too long ago and I helped Aid it them catching a shooter and I have no problem with that no no no but that but that's what that's what it's called it's not it's not that I want your camera because I want you to stop doing this it's just that man you you would be surprised how much what how many angles we need nowadays understand you know so here's and and that's the point that they're trying to get it now that you're involved in here and you're and you got to see from from from the beginning to the end because these guys are up to no good technically I didn't come up here um at the very beginning I came here when they were already when they were sat on the hand on the curve right there and they were being handcuffed I didn't see anything come out the car all I know is I saw a drug go around the car uh I mean a dog go around the car and that was it the next thing I know I'll see them put things in brown bags and that's it I don't know what happened until that office came over and told me they B arrest for Narcotics I was like oh oh okay but I mean you can't as a witness you can't feed me that type of information so then I wouldn't be a credible witness Mr Turner was free to go after sergeant montz realized that he was not guilty of any misdemeanor and was well within the rights granted to the citizens to film by the First Amendment Mr Turner 4 days later filed a formal complaint against the officers involved in the incident the proceedings of that complaint are unknown as of yet I'm Mike Mo all right we D SC the nephew yeah we D just trying to record a video in England Arkansas a police officer was terminated from his
