that's St Stay Stay Stay hey stop no you don't so shut up about it now cuz I'm tired of listening to you you're being detained for a minute you're matching a description of someone trying to break into people's cars um I'm not breaking anyone's car we're all violating your rights you are how because which right which Civil Right are we violating imagine being arrested for changing a tire or cops tasing your dog while it was trying to comfort you or being harassed and insulted because the officers got the wrong address all of that and much much more is coming to you in today's episode of the hidden files strap in and let's go we start our lineup today with a short but painful clip viewer discretion is advised because this is probably the last thing anyone wants to see in a police encounter and it's not going to be easy stand up right there on the front of the car stay St I don't got I ain't do got gun right there not do yeah I'm say with you say oh yeah I'm oh my God okay okay okay oh my f oh my oh God you want it again no shut the you was big and bad Shut Your wow I did not expect that to be honest the first time I saw this I figured it was all staged I mean the officer zon is so thick and she's behaving like a crazy bigot she's like the epitome of a corrupt cop from the middle of the 20th Cent Century yet it turned out to be true this is an excerpt from an interview with the victim michah Washington so um first of all just how are you doing today I'm doing fine I'm just you trying to process everything I'm just yeah I'm doing fine at the most so and so are you aware that this is gone National this video yes Ma I've been trying to actually just style social media cuz like I don't like seeing the video like it just do something to me like I just can't watch it like me personally like I can watch it but like with the sound on no I can't do it so take me back through what you remember I mean from what your attorney said you were you simply out changing a tire near your home yes ma like I was on near my a I was going to pick up my little brother I always go get him like every other weekend or whatever and then me my brother and my codefendant walk back to the car so um once we got back to the car I was on the ground changing the tire when um police officer pulled up so when she pulled up she was basically like um what you guys doing we told her we're changing the tire she get out she check out the tire or whatever then she find like she asked for IDs so me personally I was like if this like this not a traffic stop so why you need a ID so but I still gave it to her trying to be in compliance so I gave her my ID and I'm still asking the same question like what's the purpose of you need the IDS if Micah's account is true true it means that reform Officer Dana Elmore did nothing by the book she exercised her power over a citizen without having or articulating proper calls this kind of behavior is so out of place in the 21st century that I'm still having trouble grasping that this really happened and the tasing started even before they started filming listen to this so um that's when she finally feel some type of way or whatever so she um told me to go stand on the back of the car and I was like I'm not being the tained so I don't have to do anything so like you know so um basically it's like um so once I told her dad or whatever she said well now you are she grabbed me like I put my hands over or whatever so I was standing like between the back door and the driver door and I was trying to grab my phone so I can turn my camera on and record her so like once I finally got my camera on D she tased me the first time and she put her foot in my back on the ground so you fell down after being tased yes ma' I dropped my phone St yes ma' so she U had me fade down in the road first like so I put my hands behind my back so she can start Tas me or whatever so my brother video started like once she got me off the ground and handcuff so when she get me on to the car or whatever I let her know like I got a gun on me like so it won't go any farther than it did so okay so let's stop there you got a legally carried gun yes ma' this part is a little sketchy because one of his charges said that Micah was an ex-felon now Alabama state law prohibits possession of a pistol by anyone convicted of a violent crime while Michael was in jail and the video of his arrest went viral his neighbors rallied to support him she tased him in the back and she was holding it she was just holding it there until he St to CME jalexis Rice girlfriend of micaa Washington says this all started when her boyfriend and two others were changing a tire of the car they were driving she says that's when the officer in the video pulled up eventually putting her boyfriend and handcuffs and tasing him when I saying I could do nothing cry I could do number cry following his arrest Washington was booked into the Pickin County Jail on several charges he has a bond of $500,000 in a statement reform's police chief and mayor said they're aware of the video and the police officer has been placed on administrative leave however people attending Monday's rally say they want more done she need to be fired and I feel like she can leave and go go somewhere else and do it if if they don't hold her accountable for nothing you a police you here to protect and serve us how how do we suppos to trust you and this how you treat us it hurt my feelings for real as the Alabama Law Enforcement agency's handling the pending investigation Micah tried to cope with things and stay low one thing that bothers me is the sense that the officer got pleasure from doing it I mean it looks so natural to her here's what the victim had to say and when you watch your back and hear her voice that's a lot of thing something that people have really zeroed in on to say that it sounded like she was enjoying what she was doing yeah that what seemed like to me like she was getting a thrill out of Cu like when she got me into the back of the police car and my brother video went out she was like uh she was basically like um yeah you so tough now like she was like we going to enjoy watching this video and there you have it folks a seemingly innocent victim and a seemingly deranged cop but was Micah telling the truth and is she really the monster she seems to be be let me know what you think of both of them in the comments below violence can come in many shapes and forms as we've just seen a simple taser in the hands of people can be a tool for pain but in this next clip an officer gets carried away and performs a judo throw on an unsuspecting innocent man the scene was set when someone reported a car burglary and supposedly this man fit the description your hands let me see your hands let me see your hands take your hands out your pockets turn right excuse me being detained bud don't take your back back off um take your back back off excuse me what am I doing take your back back off um can you explain what this is before you go on the ground take your back back off I'm going going to get picked up for work come on since we want to play this game now I have to pause here for just a moment imagine waking up early Before Dawn because you have to go to work you're waiting for co-workers to pick you up and then a cop approaches you and starts bullying you like this and what the cop said last come on since we want to play this game just shows that he's sure that he got his culprit so even though he's clearly overstepping boundaries he's already made up his mind that this has to be the car burglar he probably believes that any use of force will be justified once it's proven that he apprehended a criminal but he's about to take his aggression a step further sir put your hands on your back this is my phone down can you tell me what's going on just put your hands behind your back before you end up on the ground I'm trying to drop my phone hello you tell about you're being detained for a minute you're matching description of someone trying to break in people's cars um I'm not breaking anyone's [Music] car going to work going you dumb oh my God I'm just going to work they don't know where we are help me I'm just going to work you I'm just going to work I don't know I'll getting picked up for work pleas man please help me Shut going to work traic help shut dude get up5 I'm going to work I don't know what this is for please mail backpack right yep Jesus Jesus Christ that's it a male with a backpack and he slams an innocent man to the ground just for asking what the problem was this cop is really unhinged I don't know maybe something's happening in his life that made him this bitter and angry or maybe he just needed to blow off some steam and like any bully he targeted a person who cannot defend himself please I'm going to work where are you I'm going to work are you on camera breaking in the car no I just came r help I bet you are he lives right up there what did I do wrong 348 please I just gave work well you're under you're under arrest for obstruction at least how I literally just you want you want to listen put your hands behind your back that's simple then I told you you're going to end up on the ground you still didn't do that then ended up on the ground didn't it I wasn't trying to you wasn't trying to how old are you to play how old are you I'm 29 you're older than me act like a man I'm just trying to get the word oh wow the officer first tried justifying his actions by saying the suspect did not follow orders first of all the cop was obligated to say what the reason was for detaining a person he failed to do so until later on if he did that from the start my guess is is that the suspect would have given him his backpack and once it was checked this would be over but no the officer messed this up completely and now he's belittling the suspect further for not being a man I'm seriously not turning through anything please it's just too big no that's fine I got to piure out your pocket though I'm just trying to get to work do me a favor just relax for a second when the cops say put your hands behind your back you do it and then we explain I don't know what I did wrong I was trying to explain to you but you wanted to keep pulling away so now you're under arrest for [Music] obstruction nope I told you multiple times all you to do is listen but no you wanted to be a child try to pull away that's your fault come on no you're under arrest no was broken on the day really car par I got my other headphone my ear please come on I'm just trying to get my life back together is Chris it's not Chris can you call my dad please how old are you 29 I'm not calling your dad what I'm not calling your dad you're 29 you're older than me I no come on please I'm just trying to get to work I check to get the work are they on the way no not yet I'll call the smoke look on this cop's face is truly unnerving that's a person you do not want to pull you over for anything and the belittling continues so what if the suspect wants to call his dad maybe his dad is the closest person to him and what does age have to to do with anything this cop is really a piece of work for lack of a better word oh and naturally he's got his own version of the story want to be care I said put your hand volume back being detained what' he say what is this about I was like dude I'll explain in just a minute we're 10 uh go and start Metro for my 95 calling A8 SA [Music] did he really look at his bruised arm just now jeez he slams the guy on his head WWE style then berates him for not behaving like a man but then looks at his arm to see if he has a bruise that's a lousy cop if I ever saw one and after unsuccessfully rumaging through the suspect's backpack doubt doubt is starting to creep in I mean I mean hopefully this is the guy at this point I know I [Music] mean we 25 all blue lights I'm like where is he like pull up see maybe maybe he took off run or something I just see legs up son I just go 9:20 shows 10 going on I tried keying up it wouldn't go out I was like dude cuz he he started walking that way I was like no no [Music] male backpack right dark clothing yeah I mean it matches to te I'm willing to bet he's on camera want make sure it's him cuz he didn't really have just just in case he he hit his head pretty good fair fair what's fair about any of this an unhinged cop slams a man to the ground mind you this is not the WWE this is not a ring he smashed the suspect or should I say the victim on his head on the concrete and now they're trying to get their stories in syn just in case he wasn't the culprit they're looking for not to mention they continue to make fun of the way this cop assaulted the young man this is how we're going to start the day off huh get Friday it's not even 6 it's 6:13 I didn't stretch before any of man I just saw legs go up I'm like call God damn it pa t0 okay let him this his I don't think he ever made it into a into a car did he uh he wasy that we know of yeah he was trying trying so if it is him criminal attempt all day yeah criminal attempt I was like they said negative charges did you see him trying to get into a car I'm say I was like I was going to address that later no fair no fair address that later you mean after you body slam him on his head potentially inflicting grave bodily harm who turns guys like this loose on the streets with guns and the authority to arrest someone how come no one stopped this guy earlier the cop continues looking for evidence and for pretty soon they get visitors all you do is take his backpack off turn around and put his hand behind back we wouldn't have played this game P1 gets it off scanning what is it P1 oh okay you got any of M right my wife likes to leave a car unlock I don't think he actually got into a car um I dropped him on his head right there oh okay I got boo boos too but I'm okay in the back of my car just make sure he's I think that's a blood spot well I just hope that the officer's boooo doesn't hurt that much in the meantime Tyler canaris the victim in this video had a rough time he ended up with a broken clavicle and had to have surgery on top of dealing with $75,000 worth of medical bills he was also charged with obstruction of justice that is until the body cam footage became public 11 months after the event understandably it immediately went viral our first interview with a man slammed to the ground as his arrest his caught on video has now gone viral now his attorney's plan to file a civil lawsuit against paulen County accusing that Deputy of leaving the man with $75,000 worth of medical bills from fractured bones to a ruptured air drop and they tell our bth Yates there have been other allegations against the same Deputy that's right that man tal carire and his attorneys are speaking out saying there was a huge miscarriage of justice and now they're asking for the charges to be dropped the actions were unnecessary they were unjustified but more importantly they were unlawful caner is describing to 11 alive today the lasting psychological and physical toll of the arrest sometimes I feel like that some cop is following me I can't perform my duties the way I used to and Tyler's attorneys say his injuries were extensive Tyler suffered a left clavical fracture he currently has pins in his shoulder that will be with him for the rest of his life well it'll be interesting to see how the trial goes in the meantime one thing that really bothers me is that the Sheriff's Office did nothing to reprimand the deputy identified as Michael McMaster except to put him on administrative duties especially considering the fact that his personnel file reveals a string of complaints of police brutality stretching back to 2015 the year he was hired for the job let me know what you think should happen to that cop okay let's take a step back from violence this next case is complicated from the officer's point of view it's about child abandonment however from the suspect's point of view it's about constitutional rights the privacy of one's home and a person's Integrity being violated you're witnessing Patrol officer Casey Barnum approaching the apartment of Miss Roseanne Perez the incident happened in June 2019 after Perez's son reported her because she evicted him from her own apartment of course I can I yesy so we're getting a call from your son saying you guys are kicking him out um I actually just got home he has a war for his arrest for not doing court or something yep that's right yep that is right and he's calling us saying you're kicking him out of the house I just got home from court like literally just walked in the house it's been my sister and he actually hasn't been allowed in my house because he did this the last time and I had to do a well check because I was at work so I did tell her not to open the door if he came back if I'm not here you can't do that okay well either way he has worn out for is arrest so you guys can deal with it okay so as a mother okay I got to go okay I'll back so I'm pretty sure I know which warrant it is it was for the incident a couple weeks ago yeah here I'm going to come outside whoa whoa whoa rewind a little did he really just say that she can't do that she can't not let him in this guy has a warrant for his arrest and he was violent before when he damaged the door she has every right not to let him inside for the safety of her children if nothing else but before we jump to conclusions let's see how she reacts to this he's not coming to going to Plat for that okay it's not a warrant for that it was a warrant today because he failed to show up for court so let me explain to you officer what's been going on okay so first off he's kicked my door down before the whole entire thing the other day I was at work and I can't leave work to come and see what's going on I have small baby children here and he did this to my door while I was was gone while I was gone not while I was here so I did a while check no please hear me out first because I know exactly where you're going with this okay so I asked him on his birthday which was Tuesday to get his home okay he C he failed to come home I don't know if he told you that or not but he failed to come home okay okay so he went to my sister-in-law's house and has been there since okay and I told him if you're not here by by Friday morning in order to go to court Trey I'm going to court on my own okay which I did this morning I went to court on my own his court was at 9:30 and I will I will show you where I told him okay I told him your court is at 9:30 so you better be here doing what you're supposed to be doing or I'm going to court on my own okay and guess what I did the officer keeps saying okay but I suspect that he doesn't approve of Mrs Perez's actions my guess is is that it's just a a matter of time before he tells her just how lousy a mother she is for neglecting her prodigal son cuz he just got here so what did I do I went to court on my own okay okay so he has worn out for his arrest out of Boulder or out of Adams County right now for a failure to appear and the judge specifically told me I told her everything that happened as I'm telling you okay and am I kicking him out now yeah he has a worn out for his rest he's not welcome in my home until he gets that taken care of okay okay you can't do that yes I can he's a fugitive yes I can you can listen listen I listen to you okay what you can call us if he comes but you cannot say you can't come in and if you lock him out he can kick your door to get in because he lives here I don't know what this guy's been drinking but none of what he says makes sense yes the law strictly defines parents' responsibilities for example to provide reasonable support and maintenance for their underage child nowhere does the code state that it has to be in the parents' house seeing that she knows her son was safe at her sister-in-law's house all that talk of child neglect goes out the window as for the claim that her son has the right to break down her door I don't even know what to say to that but wait this clown isn't done yet okay I'm going to tell you something he may not kick my door okay okay if you lock him out he can okay I didn't lock him out my sister did if he is being a Havoc well my sister is here Bab bitting my children he is not welcome here then she needs to call us you can't Ki him out we did call you we did call we did a well check they came the officer came and you can check that the officer came and did that he hasn't been home since until today today he was locked out again and the reason that he was locked out was because I wasn't home when I'm home then he can come that's not how this works too bad so sad goodbye no that's not how ma'am listen that is not how you need to leave out of my house stop I am you do not have any permission to go into my house you have no permission to go into my house really for can I can you please let me go no cuz now you're under arrest CL that door close that door when am I under arrest stop you're under cuz you just shoved me I did not shove you I told you it's of my house I told you to it's on video you have no right to come into my home it's on video ping my hair you have no right to come into my house you have absolutely no right to come into my house well that escalated out of nowhere the officer is telling the truth about Mrs Perez pushing him or at least attempting to do so however he did enter her home without a warrant my hunch tells me that he took this personally for some reason but we're not here to analyze officer Barnum's relationship with his mother so let's see what happens next get me out of these cups no you're going to jail I am not going to jail you are going to jail bet get me out [Applause] ofaa open the door Arina and get this all on video Arina get this all on video stop pulling away from me I'm not pulling away from you you are the same as you're trying to slip your cuffs I just told you cuz you just shoved me what did I shove you for did I just tell I shove you for what did I shove you for we can talk about what did I what did I shove you for do you have any weapons on you what did I shove you for do you have any weapons on you take that what did I shove you for do you have any weapons on you what did I shove you for I work for Well County government do you think I have weapons on me okay get off of me now come on sir I'm not under arrest yes you are for what I just told you you shoved me come on come on I'm not going to tell you then let me go this is a violation of my rights you went into my house you went into my home you went into my home without being welcomed into my home get off of me use stupid come on okay let's go let's go hurry the you are going to be so dude okay did you not try to go into my home no I was near your doorway no you pushed my door open while I was trying to go into my home you can't you literally opened up my door no I prevented you from shutting your door and then you shoved me now that's what I was waiting for finally a suspect acts normally even though they know they're innocent and are being unlawfully arrested instead of kicking and screaming like some Karen Mrs Perez is calmly going to walk this officer into court and so she did as soon as the supervisor arrived at the scene Mrs Perez was released she filed an action in federal court claiming a grey police officer violated her constitutional rights she cited false arrest and a violation of the Fourth Amendment which protects against unreasonable search and seizures the city council unanimously voted for a $200,000 settlement our next clip is a really weird one but that's what you get when a cop has a chip on his shoulder and decides to take it out on innocent people I'll walk you through it and if you agree or disagree with my assumptions feel free to let me know in the comments we're watching Los anus County Sheriff's deputy male Noel he's just pulled over a vehicle for a relatively simple reason the driver was driving too close on an icy road instead of advising him to be more careful the officer chooses a more hostile approach Windows Frozen okay what's up Deputy know with your shers office let me get your driver's license ready hold that dog now get back a little snippy what's the problem is what's the problem yeah yeah you're following too closely can't you see the roads are icy you see me slowing down and you're still coming up behind me there's no reason for you to be doing that break in the it's not good don't tell me how I should be driving okay I'm in a mark all right well I'm in a that doesn't give you the right to follow a mark patrol car close like that what if I had to stop I know there is ice there that's why I was cruising so I don't slip there's no reason for you to be tra be that close behind a mark patrol car the driver is obviously smart opening a car door could be perceived as a threat by the officer so he informs him that the windows are frozen so he has to open the door the deputy is a different story the normal approach would be to pull the driver over and advise him that the roads are icy and that he should be more careful and keep a safe distance but no he engages with a hostile tone from the start the way he's determined to justify his own driving shows a lack of confidence and the way he specifies that no one should be that close to a marked car indicates a sense of superiority what driving close behind a civilian car is okay but if it's marked then it's an offense I have a sense that this could escalate fast okay when you you find that state in the vehicle your registration and insurance I'll be back that's for clearance ma carado copy on the 2020 Ranger white color all right copy okay I'll be out on a citation and he's trying to also locate his registration insurance I'm recording did you find it good I no you didn't have problem so you didn't find your insurance or registration okay all right here get a citation say go and close your door okay so I might have been mistaken the officer's going to issue a citation and that'll be that the only thing that's still keeps me on edge is that voice from the young man's phone The Voice from the other side sounded agitated so I think something's going on and I also think we're about to find out what it is do you always stop behind cops when we pull people over I ate right okay you don't need to be here I you don't need to be you need to go no I don't I'm waiting on my son he's my ride back the wall leave leave F Stay Stay Stay Stay hey stop stop get out the car get car get out car get out the car what are you going to do you going s file s file give me that radio get out car get out the car get out car get out the car get get out car get get get out the car get out the car get out the car stop it now get out the car get out get out the get out the car car now get out of the car get out the car hey Nate do you see out the car do you see the get out of the car do you see are you recording we're recording it what the hell do you think you're doing I ain't doing anything wow that escalated quickly and unexpectedly I understand this other cop his colleague yelled for help and he ran over ASAP clearly under the impression that the suspect had done something wrong even though he has no clue what really happened or didn't happen at this point his only duty is to help secure the suspect and that's okay but the other cop he's a wreck my observation of his psyche turned out to be true did you see how he was shaking as he pointed his gun and yelled at the man jeez that guy should have never become a cop let's see how far he takes this now you're on a dve and you're trying to drive away get out the car stay get out the has nothing to do with anything don't give a [ __ ] put the park I just did sleep down is off don't pull away from me you're going to get lit up okay you're going to get L you're breaking my hor man hold on I'm going to get out get out car I'm get out the car can you hold on I'm not get out the car man I'm trying get back over there now I'm trying you just stay there and record ow can you guys out hold on now I'm getting now I'm not you're under arrest get out turn around and truck you're under arrest okay guys put your hands behind your back down put your hands behind your back put your hands behind your put your hands I'm going peacefully son settle down what's going on here God damn I just get the back get back hey he's recording this k f that's fine he can record all he want this is heinous okay I sense the old man was trolling them a little bit saying he was complying and at the same time trying to stall the situation but never did I see him really resist the officers in any way on the other hand the cops went berserk especially Deputy Noel completely unhinged and why because the man drove away after the office officer told him to do so twice I guess officers of the law get their egos bruised easily they just want you to do as you're told [Music] yeah you do what you're told all right you think it's okay just to roll up on traffic stops not do what you told now you go to jail that's all right I'm turn around and face the Tru I'm already C your dad's not listening if he listed he W get M handle don't move let's go you need to stay get in the car get get in the car get in when you mother I'm you get in the car get in the get get in the you know this is ridiculous sc4 T the point God I don't that's the for of 1 M get back over there now where where is he from wenberg well that was interesting not for the suspect of course but somehow even though he was tased repeatedly he seemed to be calmer than these two Bozo deputies so let me introduce you to the cast of this show you've already met Deputy Noel the other one is Lieutenant Henry tro and the suspect's name is Kenneth espanosa as Deputy Noel is rumaging through Espinosa's car the supervisor arrives let's see what the scoop is go ahead and clear that party what you first no good so that's my original stop he rolls up behind me and he starts giving Henry lip walk back here Henry tells him to leave he's like he's not leaving so I said leave so I try to tell him to stop punches the car while I'm holding on to the car put him at gun Point okay so he backs up no my hand so the deputy's account is pretty much true from his standpoint from Espinosa's view he did nothing wrong he pulled over far behind the traffic stop and he started leaving after both officers repeatedly told him to do so then when they yelled stop he did stop he basically complied with every order although not instantly but my hunch is that all of this is just an extension of Deputy Noel's mood that day he's been hostile from the get-go and he was just looking for that spark to ignite the fuse but this is still far from over get out now get out get out the car okay this is how it's going to work okay you're going to do what you're told to do and that's it stand up stand up up against the car spread the feet come on guys this is come on man I got his wallet this is ridiculous I'm quit acting like an idiot I ain't acting like nothing I got a taser piece in my lip you guys shot me right in the God face that's far g roll met location man I'm not doing anything my goods guys lean up against the car Jesus Christ R your feet apart is going to be one of 7 ice I'm I'm not doing it boy this guy is still breathing so heavy don't they get any physical training at the Sheriff's Office anyway I still have a sneaking suspicion I that Mr espanosa was trolling them a little you know just totally relaxing when they tell him to get out of the car so they have to drag him out if you think I'm wrong tell me in the comments Below in any case trolling or not he's clearly the victim here the deputies overstepped their Authority and made a mess of this encounter before we head to the jail Deputy Noel reports one more time best know that this party pulled up all my stuff and he started getting to with Lin 10 he was advised to leave and then when he told him not to leave now cuz it becomes his stop too he decides to step on the gas while I was holding on to the vehicle uh for TAS a deployment what do you want original guy he's going to get a citation he's staying there that's my original stuff okay what what do you want from us what can we do to help uh we should be good okay um I got met coming to check him off okay all right you guys are good with us all right huh have you noticed how the story changed a little and that it changed in the depuy's favor first of all Deputy Lincoln never told Espinosa to stay if I hear it correctly he said something else you need to go no I don't I'm waiting on my son he's right back to wall leave leave F St stay stay stay as you can tell Deputy Noel also lied about holding on to the car when Espinosa tried to drive away so I stand by my statement that this guy should have never been allowed to become a sheriff's deputy now at first I cut Lieutenant tro some slack but the interaction at the jail proves otherwise he's just as bad of a cop as the other one we're going to try to get him in here if he acts like a he's going in the chair no just come on all right get out can you give me a few minutes no get out this seconds man I can't move I can't move man right over here to the opening door have a seat on the bench inside I'm going to tell you right now if you continue to act like a jack Sit down you're going in the chair you understand that do you understand that yes I understand you're going to cooperate you're going to do what you're told cuz if not you're going to go in the chair okay any part of that you don't get no sir man's going to come and check him out cuz he got tased so that's kind of what we're waiting on right now so we'll let him come and look at him here and then we'll go from there come on the worst this guy did was to troll you a little bit maybe there's no need for such aggression is there some cops are just not cut out for this job and I get that it is a hard job so go on and do something else but this guy really needs to take it out on someone you can come and talk to him Monday through Friday when you get out of jail he's up front under Sheriff Santa Steven is my supervisor's name you can come and talk to him then to be so me not being mean I'm telling you the way it is okay you had your chance okay shut up and listen okay it's not time for you to talk it's time for you to listen cuz I'm done with your okay this could have all been prevented okay simple I roll up to see who the parked behind my Deputy cuz I don't know who it is and you start acting like a I okay number one you roll up your window when I'm walking up to it therefore I have to knock on your window to get your oh you don't know who I am I didn't have your lights on are you stupid on behind me though does the [ __ ] costume I'm not wearing tell you who I am I couldn't see it you looked right at me and rolled your window up all recorded my window all recorded okay say what you want anything you can say will be used against you in court I know keep talking mentioned several times that judging from the depuy's comments the old man was trolling them a little and to some degree I can empathize with the cops and although he shouldn't do anything to slow down or hinder the officers who are performing their duties the old man had the right to roll his windows down and he has the right to say that he didn't understand the situation however it's the depuy's job to remain calm in all situations and act rational which he failed to accomplish that day keep talking I'm not saying I was bringing my pick up to cour CU he doesn't stop he told me to leave when I push my brakes my truck does not stop I have to so you're driving an unsafe vehicle I was bringing it to for so you're driving an unsafe vehicle is what you're trying to you're saying it don't stop when you're holding the brakes it won't stay unless I put it in neutral he started ping on my truck and he told me to stop I put it in reverse to back it onto the curve so that way you guys do you know what stop means yes sir does that mean Drive Your Truck my truck let me ask you a question okay does stop stop me St does stop me put your truck in gear and try to drive away no he told me to drive away you just said he told you to stop he told me to drive away and then you were yelling no no stop him stop him stop him so he started ping on the hood of my go okay so basically you were doing what you want to do right just like you've done this whole time okay you were told to leave from the traffic stop your son is old enough to drive a vehicle he's old enough to be pulled over right you remember what you said that you don't like us pulling him over for no reason you have no idea why he was pulled over do you no you don't so shut up about it now cuz I'm tired of listening to you all right you're done talking cuz I don't give a [ __ ] what you have to say anymore okay zero I can't understand you're they're going to come and take a look at you so you shut up and talk to them whoa this Deputy is really angry I mean Super fed up he kind of sounds like an Angry Kid well at least the Medics are in a better mood hi so happened he shot me in the face with my handcuffs on okay he got tased he didn't get shot so there's a difference between being shot and being tased what kind of tase was it was a dry tase or no it was the deployed prongs yep since he was flopping around like an idiot and being unar one happened to hit him in the lid okay straight no I pulled him out okay it's all good okay so our guidline says we have to take you in to go get evaluated now so that's fine I'm f with you I mean it's they're making it bigger than what it is I mean it it is what it is I no sense to say anything but you know it is what it is I shot in the face with the teacher while I was handc behind my back so that's that's pretty much it but I I'm okay okay so do you want to go to the hospital get checked out yeah okay I'll take him okay um you want just take your stuff inside I don't take I don't care what you want let's go I want another trans stand up come on man it's not Burger King pal you don't get what you want over here settle down her phone now trying to maybe he didn't get what he wanted that day but my guess was that he'll get something in the end he filed a federal lawsuit which resulted in both deputies getting sacked the 70-year-old espanosa claims he was tased 35 times and that he's a victim of an unjustified assault but that's not all he's also suing the Los animus Board of County Commissioners Sheriff Derek Navarette and under Sheriff Ray s cyan who supposedly lied in their reports when it comes to corrupt cops they don't care who the suspect is it can be a woman a child an elderly person or as we're about to see a homeless Army veteran the following encounter or should I say encounters took place in October 2021 in the city of Gastonia North Carolina someone report reported a man panhandling and using a dog to make people feel sorry for him several times during the day officers approached the man asking him to leave I told you to move from over here hey boy you told me what I told you that you had to move man I did move no you can't you can't pan hands over here man I'm not pay but when I saw you you were and you're still I'm not P you're still here in the middle okay I don't have a sign or anything what you're dead when I saw you initially you didn't no you didn't I haven't had I've never had a sign I haven't had a sign for asking people for money brother I'm not asking anybody for money you were no I'm not you can not find anybody okay okay listen the fact Still Remains you cannot stand here in the middle of the inter in the middle of this intersection right here okay where is the law that says that I can't stand here oh there there are many laws no no well all right now you're now I can I can literally I can literally I didn't ask her for it you cannot stand in the middle of this area okay we now know the core of the story some Karen reported a veteran panic pan handling he was approached by officers telling him he couldn't Panhandle and that he could not stand at the intersection it's a tricky subject what is the definition of panhandling is he allowed to stand at the median of a road before I answer these questions let's see if a female officer has more patience ID I just saw you take money from that car yeah you saw me take money but you didn't see me ask all right let me get your ID okay you can't ask for my ID giving me money okay get your dog okay yes I can it's called pan handling but it's not paining if I didn't ask for it is it ID you can give me your ID or you can go to jail for RDO which one you want to do what's the ID for though because I'm about to write you a citation for what for panhandling that's not panhandling yes it is no it's not if you come up to me and give me money you walked out to the car because they stopped did you see them stop give me your ID you saw the whole situation give me your ID or you're going to jail for RDO which is resist Del layup struck okay you're going to write a disabled veteran that's living in the woods a ticket yes because I asked you not to do it and you did I didn't do it you see me here I'm packing my stuff up I sit there and watched you you watch me walk up the sidewalk City I'm out with that that subject like you literally watch me walk up the sidewalk you watch car stop give me your ID you're going to write me a ticket yes you can feel the tension escalating and you already know that things are going to go south from here just to be clear the Gastonia code clearly states that it's forbidden to ask beg solicit or offer to work for money by Spoken written or printed work or other such acts apart from waving and smiling Mr Joshua roor did none of those however according to the same code it's unlawful to stand sit or accept contributions from a stopped vehicle in a street including shoulders and median strips it would be okay on a sidewalk but not where he was standing so even though the officers had calls to arrest him unfortunately the situation got out of hand this is the moment the supervisor arrives all right sir well just out with him I told him he couldn't be on the median yeah that's why I was packing my stuff up walk out to a car to get money yeah I saw him at the Circle K the other day uh with a car yeah yeah so now he's refusing to give me his ID because I'm going to write she's trying to rank me a ticket because I was walking up this packing up she told me to pack up and I was literally and somebody sto gave money you saw it yesterday he saw it too people give me money because because because you're first of all I mean it it it can be inferred okay because that's the way the law Works things can be inferred so if it appears that you're violating an ordinance that's how that works right but if so if you're so so so let me tell you cuz cuz you're not a lawyer you can get one but I can tell you how the law Works you're in the median right you're waving at people in the median after after I told you down like this I sit there and observe you and that lady is a witness down there yeah and I walked up pack I just want you to know you can go to jail for this ordinance if you if you listen if you if you continue to argue with officers you're going to go to jail and and we're going and we're and we and we are and we are going to call animal control for your dog and this is where we get to the tough part Sunshine she's Mr Ro's service dog she's been specially trained to comfort and care for Mr roor helping him cope with his PTSD Mr Roar decides to provide his ID but pay close attention to Sunshine's behavior during this next interaction there you go no we your state a not your VA this is valid it's not valid I need your state a not your VA a I'm going ask you one more time it's not even valid give me your St turn around you're being a wrest dud turn are you kidding me turn see this somebody help me hey what are you doing what are you doing M what are you doing call your dog off call your dog off call your dog off call your dog off call

City we need more units we need more units help what are you doing this somebody help me record turn around record this turn around sir help me turn S turn around turn around why are you doing this two Charlie said he t on the dog it was clear that the moment the officer said she B him she was a few feet away acting very calmly roar's lawyers later stated that Sunshine was a service dog she was just doing what she was trained to do by pacing calmly near Mr Roar when she jumped onto the car she attempted to get closer to his face to comfort him because she sensed he was distressed that is also a part of her training as well as a natural instinct at no point did she show any signs of aggression after being tased she ran away Sunshine died several days after the incident when she was hit by a car while her owner was in jail in Gastonia tonight neighbors there calling for justice after a homeless veteran was arrested for panhandling earlier this month that Army veteran Joshua Roar and some witnesses who saw the incident claim police were overly aggressive toward him and his dog since then those Witnesses and a few different veteran support groups have been protesting the arrest and demanding the Gastonia Police Department release the body camera video Gastonia police tell us they are reviewing the incident to determine if all policies and procedures were followed by officers during the arrest as for Mr roor he entered a plea deal for his charges including a previous charge of driving with an invalid driver's license he got probation and in June 2023 filed a lawsuit against Officer Taylor officer Brooks and the City of Gastonia he alleged a series of violations including violations of the first and fourth amendments defamation and intentional infliction of emotional distress none of the cops face criminal charges for their actions although Officer Taylor has since resigned from the Gastonia PD and now I have a special treat for you this time we're going to start at the end of the altercation notice how light of a knock at the door it was sir it's it's officer K officer cona I don't know who that is what do you want do you mind if we speak to you for one minute for what we would like to say something to you say what go ahead sir can you hear me can you hear me sir can you hear me sir go ahead all right man I just like to apologize for getting upset with you earlier I you don't want to lose your job no I just don't want to can I can you open the door no okay all right I'm I'm not going to get into my own personal things but I had some personal things going on that I let get the best of me and I do apologize for that wow that sounded like a really sincere apology it's got to make you wonder what this officer did that would want to make him apologize like that well that was officer maror of the suici Sun City Police Department you've already heard the voice of his partner officer kenoma the man inside is Army veteran turned actor CRA Alon Hawkins and these two officers came knocking at his door earlier that evening during the altercation that ensued one of the officers told the sergeant to consume male genitalia although he didn't phrase it as nicely notice how at that time the knock was quite different as well as the officer's demeanor sry hello hey I don't know who that is you know who that is no who's your uh your girlfriend or your baby mama the lady we just saw the lady right we can see first of all that's my wife Mar okay Mar and who K so who's this can you go with the mother what's the problem so we're here on a welfare check we have to make sure she's okay why because we received a call from North Bay for the incident that occurred earlier the incident that officer maror is referring to was reported to the police by the North Bay Hospital parents brought in a child who supposedly ingested nail polish so they called the police and asked them to check on the family who used to live in this house prior to the Hawkins family the baby mama comment was derogatory and judging by the demeanor of Sergeant Hawkins let's just say it failed to Foster cooperation nonetheless the sergeant informs the officers that he has no idea what or who they're talking about notice that for now he's relatively calm but marlor is about to screw this up even more when asked about his name Hawkins shortly replies what incident look look right there supposed to be an investigator if y investigate right there 9 years US Army now what's the problem what's your person I don't have to identify myself to you do I am I under investigation you want to tell me what's going on don't not on my window can you come out here no she can't come out there y'all need to tell me what's going on this is my house we told you we're here for a welfare Che not the right address welf check for what no I I got yall violating my rights right now we're not dude yes you are because you're not telling me know who that is I just said it to you listen to me dude we're all violating your rights you are how because which right which Civil Right are we violating why are you raising your voice we're not violating voice why is he raising we we are here on a welfare check I can go inside my house we are here on a welfare check officer maror stepped out a line on that one so far Sergeant Hawkins was calm and relatively Cooperative but maror raising his voice got him defensive now and the young officer was about to take it even further I was called in by North Bay over I don't know what that means stop talking talk I don't have to stop talking why he I don't like I don't like him's raing his voice at me right now or nail polish okay okay so we we come here your baby right there I'm going to talk to you first of all came to my house and say is that my girlfriend or my baby mama that's my wife so that's disrespectful starting off all right sir so that was disrespectful starting off and raising his voice at me okay understand so now I can raise my voice right no you can e what's his problem no he did not just say that did he so now I can raise my voice let's go no you can I guess he did and this really sent the Army veteran off the rails and who could blame him neither of the officers acted appropriately but if maror didn't start off disrespecting his wife I'm sure this would have turned out differently it just goes to show how a minor slip up can turn things around in a split second but even though he's visibly agitated Hawkins doesn't do anything stupid but he does start recording N I need your badge numbers I'm sorry fine I'll give you my badge number but so the reason we're here is make eat son close the blind hold on Sir Sir close the blind sir do you have a 14-year-old son close the blinds please come in the house close the blinds I'm not going in the house CL the BL okay ma'am are your children okay okay look okay guy he's asking if my children are okay they're asking me who is jezelle and who's the 14-year-old boy who the is that who the Y talking about we're going to leave now at this point the officers were assured that the kids were okay the process they continue ually intruded on this family's privacy and kept infuriating an army veteran I think we can all sympathize with Sergeant Hawkins not only did maror disrespect him and his family but he did it repeatedly now the other officer it was too late for apologies the media picked up on the story and it went viral what do you think about this interaction there's no doubt that officer maror was wrong and he stepped out of the boundaries he was fired soon after the story went public but what about Sergeant Hawkins some say he should have calmed down after after maror left others praised him for defending his family where do you stand on the matter thank you for joining me on yet another wild ride today we explored a lot of different police interactions so tell me which one resonated the most with you and
