preceded him under the Fourth Amendment of the US Constitution every citizen has the right to be free from unreasonable C es and seizures a principal the officer blatantly disregarded the officer demanded a search without cause ignoring the gangster's calm insistence on his legal rights what could have been a simple interaction soon turned into an explosive display of the officer's abuse of

escalated the situation by becoming increasingly hostile demanding the driver's license registration and proof of insurance despite no apparent legal grounds for doing so the officer's manner suggested he had already formed a judgment about the driver based on his appearance not on any evidence of wrongdoing Texas law requires that an officer must have probable cause to stop or detain a driver as outl in Texas Transportation codee Section 5 21.25 the driver could sense the officer was racial profiling him making assumptions based on his appearance which only fueled the officer's aggression this Behavior prompted the driver to remain calm and question the officer's motives under the equal protection Clause of the 14th Amendment citizens are protected from discrimination based on race or appearance especially during law enforcement actions don't cuss at me don't cuss at me be professional on your job I'm trying am I not you he are you hearing I need your are you hearing are

never I've never stopped you before I've never deal you bro I'm a cool guy bro as long as you keep it cool it's cool bro you guys pull me over bro what is it is it how I look is it the car what is it I see you your face whatever or how you look CU I saw you I saw you double doesn't mean that I can pull you over just for that man okay what's what's the legit reason bro what's the legit reason what's the legit reason first person I've stopped today you're like the third or fourth person I've stopped I just came in I'm doing my job bro it's not a big deal it's as easy as you show me ID I give you a for that you know DN I don't need to give it to you you're not the first person that told me that you know I don't need to give it to you because you don't have a legit I'm not I'm not not breaking any kind of law bro okay so check it out the reason for the Stop bro like I told you you see that you can't have it hanging from there the reason why what what what is it tell you because it obstructs your view from what what what what part of it are you talking about this the phone the cell phone hanging right there bro the cell phone I didn't know what was C when I saw you when you passed by me remember right here when you passed by me I saw and I saw I didn't know what that was okay so where okay so it where am I where am I supposed to put it if if I need to find somewhere else put it somewhere else bro if you have a center C or something there there's some that you could attached to your vent but this is the one I bought for the same reason so I can look at it but check it out you can't have it there the reason why there's going to be more people there more anal about it I told you I'll give you a warning for that I didn't know what you had but I saw that you had something blocking you right there I didn't know it was your phone okay I know people buy that bro but doesn't mean that it's legal if it blocks your view then you can have it you can buy some for your vent or something that you can with their BS yeah okay I'm going to make I'm going to make was question like simple as dirt okay go ahead what's the difference between you and I what I don't know what is it tell me okay because you have a camera same place where I have mine okay is it obstructing your vision no it's not and mine's not either first of all that's not a camera it's not a camera what is it then it's a radar it's a it's you talking about the thing right there it's a wind it's the uh the mirror but it has I'm sorry what you have a camera right where I have my phone bro it's not it's already inside the mirror man okay look hey look at the thir what's the difference between you and I obviously my taxes pay you right okay okay so what what how come I can't have this right here where I where I don't have to touch my phone if I'm going somewhere uhhuh and and you have the same thing what's the difference because we're law enforcement we're the ones that no you're not above the law you are not above the law thew yeah law enforcement so we need this stuff to monitor traffic to to enforce traffic law we need all this stuff we need camera and I need this to vote to where I'm going okay I understand but like I told you you you can't have I'm not saying it's legal to have something to have your to to connect your phone to you just can't have it right there boss because it can obstruct your view you feel what I'm saying something as small like as that can block somebody that's crossing the road and you won't even see or if you're distracted with that you can hit somebody I'm just saying because it's happened bro it's not a big deal look I could have approached you just show me your ID I'll give you a warning for that I didn't know what you had that you guys take take it up take it okay your guys is your guys is is I'm going to call it a gang cuz it's a gang you guys are a damn gang bro okay and and it and it's every time you see this car every time like okay you said it was that but obviously it took you a while to pull me over what do you mean a while it took you a while you follow me into a lane and then I Tred to move around doesn't mean I'm following you man okay you know how many times I get told I I so then you just you just finished saying that you saw this and then that I said when I passed by you right here right here right here and you kept looking at me but I looked at you and I looked and I saw you had something right there and I didn't know it was your phone I just saw that you had something right there it's not a big deal bro look I've never stopped you don't tell me don't don't don't say you guys always stopped this car I've never stopped this car I've never stopped you in my life man so when you come off like that how do you expect me to act if you could if you already come at me like with with an attitude and don't tell me you didn't have an attitude bro I I I do have an attitude with you guys I always do have an attitude with you guys I mean it's it's it's the same issues I run into I run into the same issues how come you didn't approach me through a driver side I'm sorry how come you didn't you know why because I can I can see everything I can see your hands I can see if I'm like this bro you can have your hand the corrupt officer shifted his Focus to analyzing the driver searching for any excuse to escalate the situation under the Fourth Amendment officers cannot prolong a traffic stop without Reasonable Suspicion yet this officer extended it unnecessarily effectively harassing the driver he resorted to Illegal practices fishing for any pretext to make an arrest in such situations it's crucial to invoke your Fifth Amendment right to remain silent and record everything for evidence reminding the officer that their actions can be used against them in court often discourages further misconduct right here and I don't know if you have anything right but if I go to that side then I can see your hands it's just something that I prefer I know everybody likes to come through here but it's something I prefer because I've seen people hold guns and stuff you know we have a partner we had a partner that got shot and killed you already know but like I don't know I don't know exactly and I don't know and and and I don't know you and when I say you pull over here and you come in here well because I'm not going to put I'm not going to pull my car in other people people way and that that's the only way you guys know how to talk cars are you talking about like and and supposed to park right there on the side if you no shoulder supped to pull over there I'm I'm not going to do it I'm not going to put my car in where either you can get hit or I'm going to get hit we all know that people everywhere but the thing is that I can't read your mind bro like I don't know what you're doing I don't know I didn't know if you were going to pull in or you're going to try to Jet and go through here I didn't know because I never had somebody just boom straight into a parking lot and then what if I can't come because people are coming you feel me and then plus when I come and then you I can already tell you were mad so because I saw you following me from all the way over there bro that's we the point bro okay yeah we already passed that but say you're in my shoes you're in my shoes right yes sir put yourself on my shoes man and then you approach somebody they already attitude they already have an at right how do you expect me that I'm trying to tell you bro look I didn't know you had your phone there all you got to do is give me your ID so that way I can scan your stuff and I can give you a warning I need your ID that's why not only that bro but if you're detained you're lawfully detained I need your ID unless you want to get arrested for fail to ID I mean and I don't want to ARR you that's giving you chances that I know that I'm not doing nothing wrong in order for and I didn't say I didn't say uh I I you know I didn't come to you interrogating you what are you doing what are you having here who are you with were you leaving no I didn't bro I just said give me your ID and I said that thing that you had right there you can't have it cuz it's blocking your view I didn't know it was your phone but okay how how yeah it's cuz you guys make it harder than it seems how how do you know it's blocking my view because it's not blocking my VI bro I I'll give you an example you know like the uh the disabled placards like the disabled CL you can't even have that and it even says it on there because it can obstruct your view you can't have like you know people like to put bandanas the the how do you say the the the dice but that's window you're not supposed to have anything that that blocks your view on that's just an excuse for you guys to pull people over watch your computer is blocking your view too I understand you you guys need stuff like that but there's no difference between you and I because it's it's obstructing your vision too it's not you can't put yourself above me because you're not hey I didn't make the rules bro I didn't make the rules but we need that stuff I need that stuff so so then I can pull you over and do a citizen arrest because you have that obstru your view it's it's pretty it's pretty I can tell your M I'm pissed off bro if this is the excuse the only excuse that you have to pull me over to maintain this it's I know I have nothing on me I don't have warrants I have my driver license it's that upset you know anybody can tell me you okay look you know how many times I've heard that I can use anything as an excuse to pull you over I can exactly I can even use this you know what no I'm I'm within I'm within one line where is it cuz I can't see can you see it from here yeah I know I know it's there bro okay so you already know hey can't be cuz this looks like more than 5 in it's not you feel me it's not I can't even see your as1 line that's why I know that it's past your as1 line okay as the situation grew more intense the driver decided to assert his rights standing up against the officer's abuse of power he calmly questioned the officer's Authority asking if he had any real reason for the Stop meaning the officer must provide a legitimate reason for any stop okay so check it out man look it's not a big deal anybody can tell me look you me over for this as an excuse it could be something as small as your your turn signal I've heard it all the time bro it doesn't have to go like this bro so like I told you when I approach you and you already have an attitude well how am I supposed to be like okay well this guy's going to have an attitude it's CU how can it go smooth bro it's I didn't come to you with an attitude dude I already tell you it's CU you guys your department already has a bad reputation who sto you last time was that that was like in March in March you know at gunpoint is that really necessary at gunpoint is that necessary for what just because my sticker was expired no but why did they have you a gunpoint that's what I'm asking that's what I want to know and and and the only thing that you guys could justify with is like oh it's cuz you had warrs that was after the fact that I gave you my ID you know what I mean that it's stuff that's unnecessary okay it's like and let me ask you something have I done anything unnecessary to you have I pulled you out of your car have I done anything I I have you on video I have you on video and I Tred to open it why would you try to open it bro if if you said if you said it's as simple as just giving the ID it's unnecessary Force unnecessary Force I'm recording everything too and and and I do this I do this because I'm tired of you guys listen to me listen to me just the same way you can look back and and and track everything I have can look back too at at at at uh me asking you for ID and you telling me

the officer backed down realizing the driver was not an easy Target the driver's refusal to comply with the corrupt officer's demands led to the officer abruptly letting him go with warning under Texas penal code section
