This is this I I do not consent to step on my car. But I do not consent consent to step out my vehicle. I done nothing wrong. You guys do what needs to be done. I'm not I don't have to step out my vehicle. I don't feel safe. I don't feel safe to step out my vehicle. You guys are doing this for no reason. So, you know I don't know like I he was walking. No, I'm telling you you're you're profiling me cuz I'm black. You're profiling me. I'm telling you you're profiling me cuz I'm black. The officer initiates the stop under the pretense of suspicion without any concrete evidence of wrongdoing. Under Rhode Island General Laws Section 31-21.2-5A, a vehicle stopped for a traffic violation cannot be detained beyond the time needed to address the violation unless there is reasonable suspicion or probable cause. Instead, the officer vaguely claims he thought he saw something, which is not a legally sufficient reason for detainment. The driver immediately recognizes this as an unjustified stop and challenges the officer, pointing out the lack of any clear infraction. Despite the officer's attempts to justify the stop, the driver remains firm, refusing to be intimidated by baseless accusations. Yeah. I'm not. I don't know no Mike Lacey. I don't know. [Music] No, I don't I I No, no, I never said that to you said to me about this guy over here. And I said I don't know nothing about that guy. Then you brought up hope and I said something about some people know. I said some people sold me a card a few days ago. That's all I was saying to you. No, I don't I don't I don't know nothing about over there what you're talking about. I mean, when I pulled off, I pulled off from I was doing something over there but not with that person. Listen, I don't have to answer questions. I am not doing nothing wrong. I promise you that. I just I promise you that I am not doing nothing wrong. That what what's that That's profiling me. Why do I have to answer it? It's like I don't have to I don't have to answer that question either. I don't have to answer that question. I mean, you you you you I don't agree to that but you're going to do what needs to be done. You're going to do what needs to be done. You do what needs to be done. All right. The officer tries to pressure the driver into answering questions about his probation status and attempts to find a reason to escalate the situation. Under the Fifth Amendment of the US Constitution, individuals have the right to remain silent and not incriminate themselves. The driver asserts this right by refusing to answer questions about his legal history, recognizing that the officer is fishing for a pretext to justify further action. When the officer insists, the driver firmly reminds him that he does not have to disclose such information, exposing the cop's attempt at manipulation. The officer's frustration becomes evident as he realizes he cannot intimidate the driver into compliance. What's up, man? How you doing? Yeah. Yeah. No, this this I'm straight. There's nothing in this car. I'm fine. I'm good. I promise you I'm good. There's nothing to worry about. And you guys are doing this for no reason. So, you know, do what needs to be done. Again. I done nothing. Okay, I I done nothing. I'm not worried about nothing. I done nothing at all. You know, you guys are doing this it's more like harassing me but okay. [Music] What do you mean? Oh, man. Jesus Christ. This is bad. Uh I don't want to step out my car. How how why how am I consenting to a search? This is crazy. Bro, I don't I don't want to step out my car. I'm I feel I don't feel safe out there. I don't this I trust me. I I I'm not a dog person. I don't want to be next to your dog. [Music] This is this I I do not consent to step out my car. But I do not consent consent to step out my vehicle. I done nothing wrong. You guys do what needs to be done. I'm not I don't have to step out my vehicle. I don't feel safe. I don't feel safe to step out my vehicle. For what bro what grounds is this? This is illegal. You you you can do what needs to be done with me and the vehicle. [Music] Oh, that's that's And and again, you're doing you're doing that based off me being black. Me being black and you seeing my background. Hold on, this is exactly what it No, no, no, no, no, no. He was walking No, no, no, he was walking. He I don't know like I he was walking. No, I'm telling you you're you're profiling me cuz I'm black. You're profiling me. I'm telling you you're profiling me cuz I'm black. I don't care what you think you saw. You're profiling me cuz I'm black and you ran my name and you seen my background. So, now you're like, "Oh, yeah, there's something." But but now you're like, "Oh, there's something in my car." No, there's nothing. Listen, I I know how this goes. I don't have to step out. I don't have to step out my vehicle. I done nothing wrong. I done nothing wrong. I I've been complying. I gave you everything you needed. I'm not a child. I don't feel safe stepping out my car with you guys. And he got a bite dog on top of it. Yes, absolutely with you. Look how you're treating me. You you you seen me over here now I'm a I'm a drug dealer, I'm a criminal. I got weapons in the car like [Music] I don't That's that's I don't care what you saw. I was doing nothing. That guy That guy walked by me. He walked by me. I don't know him. He walked by me. He literally walked by me. If you would have seen the interaction, I promise you you would have stopped it right then and there. You would have put your lights on. You would have stopped and you would have stopped me. You didn't see anything. You didn't see me do anything. You didn't see me do anything. What you're doing what you're doing is illegal. You're trying to You're trying to You're trying to force me out my car because you ripped my car apart. The officer demands that the driver step out of his vehicle for a search despite having no legal basis. Under Rhode Island General Laws Section 31-21.2-5B, an officer cannot request a search during a traffic stop unless there is reasonable suspicion or probable cause of criminal activity. The driver, understanding his rights, refuses to step out, asserting that he does not feel safe. The officer then brings out a police K9 in an attempt to intimidate him into compliance. The driver calls out this tactic, making it clear that he does not consent to any search. He forces the officer to admit that he has no evidence of a crime, effectively dismantling the cop's attempt to justify an unlawful search. I done nothing wrong. [Music] Man, I promise you, right? We would not be having this conversation if there was something in my car. My rap sheet says that. You If you just pull my name, you will see that. So, you're wasting your time. Yeah, no, but that's not the point. I don't want to be treated like I'm a child, bro. I'm 44 years old. You're a grown man, I'm a grown man. I But I don't have to step out my car because you think you seen something. [Music] No, I don't No, no, no, no, no. That was bank robbery and I had nothing to do with that. Convicted anything. You're using what you seen to try to search my car. You are. You're being racist. You just said it. You said, "Oh, I believe that I seen you doing something." You seen nothing. And then you ran my name cuz I'm black. You are. You're profiling me cuz I'm black, bro. You know it. You just said it. You just said You just said, "Oh, I'm You just said it. You just said it. You just said I thought I seen you doing something." I have reason to believe that you No, you didn't cuz if you would have seen a transaction, you would have [ __ ] stopped right there. You're a grown man, bro. You're a cop. You You would have enforced the law right then and there. Oh, you're profiling me cuz I'm black. Just be a man in the mid dot. Be a man in the mid dot. Please be a man in the mid dot. But I'm telling you if there was something in this car, I wouldn't be here right now talking to you, bro. I promise you that. You're profiling me. And then the fact that you ran my my my ID and you seen it, you're bringing up charges that I haven't even been charged with. Is that Is that not Is that not Is that not profiling? It is profiling cuz you just said it. You said you've been recently charged with a B&E. Look, I'm not trying to make nothing happen to you, man. I'm really not, man. Thank you, man. I appreciate you. Thank you. [Music] No. I promise you I didn't steal nothing from that lady. I'm not because I'm not that guy. Frustrated by his inability to control the situation, the officer resorts to bringing up past accusations against the driver, attempting to use them as justification for his actions. Under Article 1, Section 6 of the Rhode Island Constitution, individuals are protected from unreasonable searches and seizures, requiring specific probable cause for police action. The driver immediately calls this out, accusing the officer of racial profiling. As the cop stumbles over his words, the driver forces him to admit that he has no concrete evidence of wrongdoing. Realizing he has lost, the officer finally backs off, knowing that any further action could result in legal consequences. The driver, having destroyed the cop's power trip, watches as he is reluctantly released, proving that knowledge of the law is the ultimate shield against corrupt authority.
