You're in front of our building. >> That doesn't mean I'm in it. >> Do you have an ID you'd like to take a look at, sir? >> Do you have Do I have an ID? >> Any particular reason you're wearing a FBI agent? >> No. >> You don't have any ID or driver's license or anything like that? >> Mhm. >> Okay. Can I get you guys' names and date of birth, please? >> These rookie officers believe the uniform puts them above the law, but the price they pay comes much faster than they ever imagined. >> Yeah, but I >> Sir, you're not giving me your name and date of birth. If you If you get in some trouble, okay? >> Yeah, but I live for trouble. They call me Billy. >> Okay. So, what's your legal first name? >> I can't say it, sir. It makes me nervous. >> When the Constitution is put on the table, the outcome of this abuse of power leaves everyone in silence. Standing on a public sidewalk, holding a camera, and just minutes later, a deputy sheriff suddenly approaches. What is really happening behind these gates? Over here, we have the jail administration and visiting. No weapons beyond this point. No cell phones beyond this point. Delivery entrance. Nothing really. Over there. Over here, we have a sign that says no loitering around the jail. [music] Violators will be prosecuted. State statute 28-914. So, we're on a public sidewalk, and I looked up that statute they're referring to. Passing and speaking information and having conversations with inmates. I don't see how it could be found constitutional that I cannot be walking around the perimeter on the public sidewalk of the correctional facility here. Just because there's a statute doesn't mean that it's constitutional in any way at all. Statutes were meant to be tested. Some of them anyway. >> Everything still seems calm at this point. The camera glides past signs and seemingly harmless areas while a man simply walks observing, documenting. Then, one question after another, one request at a time, slowly pushes the story in a completely different direction where a single ID suddenly becomes the focal point. >> Howdy, sir. >> Hey. >> Krueger with the Cass County Sheriff's Office. >> Deputy Krueger? >> Yep. >> Nice to meet >> Uh is there something I can help you with today or >> Um no, I don't need any help with anything. >> Okay. I was just wondering cuz we saw you on our cameras. You were over there wandering around over by the van over there and stuff and just >> Yeah, I was just taking some pictures and video over there, yeah. >> Okay. All right. Are you here to pick somebody up from the jail or what's up? >> No, I'm not here to pick anyone up from the jail. >> Okay. All right. Well, if you don't have any business here, I would ask if you uh could move along. You can hang around at the front of the building. Yeah, one second. Sorry, they're talking to me. >> Yeah, no problem. >> Never. Um You can hang around out at the front of the building if you want, but uh as you can see, we've got signs around talking about no loitering outside of the jail and that kind of stuff. >> Yeah, I read the statute. It has to do with communication with inmates and passing documents towards inmates and I'm not doing that. I'm engaging in a constitutionally protected activity. >> Okay. Well, I would ask that if you uh you know, you can hang out up front and stuff. Anywhere where we've got these signs posted, we would ask that you not loiter around that area, okay? >> Yeah, I'm not loitering. I'm not standing. Loitering is standing around without a purpose. I have a purpose. >> Okay. But you don't have a purpose at our building. >> Yeah, but I'm not in your building. >> You're in front of our building. >> That doesn't mean I'm in it. >> Do you have an ID with you then I'll take a look at, sir? >> Do you have Do I have an ID? Why would you need my ID? >> Because I'm trying to figure out why you're hanging around out here filming outside of the >> And my ID is going to tell you why I'm hanging hanging out around walking around your outside of the building. That's what it's going to tell you why. >> Well, no. I'm trying to investigate everything here. I need to know who I'm >> Investigate what? Okay. What What crime do you suspect me of committing? >> Loitering outside of a penal facility. Do you have your ID with you that I can take a look at? >> Yeah, can I speak to your supervisor? >> Uh you surely can. Give me just 1 second. >> The moment the demand for identification appears, the atmosphere instantly changes. Not because of the action itself, but because the reason behind it is never clearly stated. Moments later, a new face enters the frame, a different voice, a different demeanor. And within just a few exchanges, the situation begins to turn in a direction no one expected. >> Just hang out for a second. You're not detained right now. >> Okay. So, I would like to just keep about my day if I'm not being detained for any anything. >> All right. So, like I said, um anywhere where the signs are posted >> Yeah, loit- >> that you don't loiter. >> Dep- Deputy, I'm not loitering. I told you I have a purpose. I'm taking pictures and videos. I'm exercising a constitutionally protected activity. I'm engaging in a constitutionally protected activity. >> You don't have any business at the building. >> I'm not inside of your building. I am outside on the public sidewalks. >> our property, though. >> I'm not on This is not your property. >> This is >> up the GIS >> Just >> I looked up the GIS uh survey. This is not your property here. >> This is Cass County property. >> That means it's public property. This is not the property of the jail. >> It's treated as private property. >> Why would it be treated as private property? >> Because this is a penal facility. >> So, that means it's private? >> It means that if we ask you to leave that you >> Yeah. Well, I'm I'm still on a public sidewalk. Hey, how are you? >> How are you, sir? >> I'm doing well. Uh your name and badge number, sir? >> Yeah, it's West Ludlow, 92011. >> Sergeant? >> Yeah. >> Hey, Sergeant. How are you? I'm just taking some pictures and video of the facility here. I'm I wasn't loitering in any way. I'm just I'm moving along. I'm just taking some pictures and video. >> with the >> No, that's and and that's exactly what I told the deputy. I looked up the statue and it's it's mainly just to communicate or pass objects between um inmates inside. And I No, I'm just taking pictures of the >> You're exercising your First Amendment right. >> That's exactly what I'm doing. That nothing nefarious going on here. And I'm not in any restricted areas or anything like that, sir. So, yeah, no no no big deal, right? >> Sounds good to me. >> Okay, great. And I don't have to give up my ID cuz he said I had to. Okay. >> One side holds onto its original stance while the other begins to see things differently. In this moment, everything seems to be wrapped up. No sirens, no handcuffs. But that doesn't mean the story is over and the camera keeps rolling. >> Before I came here, I do my research. And I looked up the penal code here. State statute 29.914. No loitering around the jail. It's communicating with inmates. Loitering, which is you're just standing in front of a jail not doing anything. I'm not loitering. I'm moving. I am gathering content for a story. This is not loitering. This is actually a constitutionally protected activity. And you see the sergeant, he knew exactly he knew exactly what we were doing here. Thankfully for the sergeant, saved the Cass County a lawsuit because I seriously think that deputy was going to arrest me. He was close to detaining me. He wanted to see my ID cuz he suspected me of loitering. Not loitering. What's the sergeant Good on him. Good on the sergeant for recognizing our constitutional right of freedom of press, our first amendment right. It's a beautiful thing to see. I love it. He knew exactly what we were doing. He respected our constitutional right. And I respect him for that. This is how we bridge the gap. Hopefully that deputy gets an education. He already did. >> [laughter] >> He already got his education here today. So, you know, that's one one more law enforcement officer that's been educated. Again, you shouldn't I'm not saying you need to know everything. This is the front of the correctional facility here, city and county law enforcement center. So, I'm not saying that a law enforcement officer has to know everything, right? >> As everyone walks away, the scene returns to its initial quiet. But this silence is far from meaningless. What just happened was not merely a brief exchange on a sidewalk. It was a moment that showed how a single misinterpretation can push the line between lawful conduct and violation dangerously far. Citizens may sue police under section 1983 when their rights are infringed. Officers who violate the law can be held liable for damages and face discipline or termination. Up next, a bank. An investigation no one can quite explain. And a series of bizarre questions that immediately throw everything off course. Why do signs of trouble appear within just the first few minutes? >> Oh, yes. Yes, ma'am. [music] We were sitting down here. You have to come in here. No, it's just some old women that told us to come down here and film for an investigation. >> Oh, okay. >> We do know what's going on in here and I would like it if you could allow me inside and I can inspect the security footage. >> I have to call back the person that I was in contact with. >> Okay. >> They asked you why you were here and what company you were sent with. Was Wells Fargo that sent you? >> No, no. Not Yeah, no. We're not Wells Fargo affiliated. >> text him first and then get Well, he's going to let you know. >> Okay, we are [music] looking to see what type of vault you guys are using. So, if we could get that information Hey, if you want >> I'll go through my manager first and then my corporate office, okay? >> Okay, yes, ma'am. Yes, ma'am. Salad bar. Is she a reptilian? See my shirt? Ladies and gentlemen, I'm a fed. You You must understand this. I'm actually working with the [music] ATF. I'm actually the commander of the ATF. You know what I've been doing with all that alcohol, tobacco, [music] and firearms? Oh, I see. See, Chester knows sign language. He's taught me everything I know. See? Now, what the hell is going on here? >> [music] [music] >> Some people may not like our investigations, but trust me, folks, it's absolutely necessary. Foilage. This bank is made out of bricks. Brick stone masonry. Freemason. So, we do believe this building was erected possibly by some lizard people. This building was built by [music] reptilians. I believe back in 1969. Oh, I know. Yeah, no. There's There's a hole on the other side. That's kind of what I needed to see. >> Um that's what we're going to probably check out. >> Well, maybe. >> Roundabout explanations [music] and increasingly confusing details make the situation far are simple than it first appeared. And as the line between truth and falsehood begins to blur, attention shifts toward the authorities. [music] Shortly after, a new figure steps in with a completely different tone. >> Fine, we can leave. >> Uh that's what I was saying before we go in there. >> We were called here. Branch manager of Zephyr Lane wonder what you guys were doing. >> Oh, we're doing an investigation. >> On? >> The bank. >> In regards to? >> Well, we're trying to see [music] if we could actually get inside of the bank and conduct investigation. >> For what? >> We need to [music] see the vault and the security measurements you're being used. >> And do you have any credentials for that? >> Uh no. >> Okay. Any particular reason you're wearing a FBI agent? >> No. >> Okay. >> I support our boys in [music] blue. >> Okay. >> Look, I support the boys in blue. >> Okay. And where are you guys from? >> Uh Waterloo. >> Okay. You got >> Back search straight. >> on you by chance? >> I don't, sir. >> You don't have any ID or driver's license >> or anything like that? >> Mhm. >> Okay. Um Can I get you guys' names and date of birth, please? >> I go by Billy. [music] >> What's that? >> I go by Billy. >> Okay. You go by Billy. What's your legal first name? >> I can't say it. [music] I had to sign paperwork not to say this, sir. >> Okay. So, you understand that I'm investigating something, okay? >> Yeah. >> They called you in as [music] being a suspicious person. >> Yeah, but I >> So, you not giving me your name and date of birth could get you you get in some trouble, okay? >> Yeah, but I live for trouble. They call me Billy. >> Okay. So, what's your legal first name? >> I can't say it, sir. It makes me nervous. >> What's your first name? >> He's Chester, but he can't He's not allowed to speak, neither. >> Okay. So, here's my thing, guys. >> We're investigating. >> I get that. And I'm investigating a crime. Also, I'm investigating a suspicious person, okay? >> So, you're an You're an investigator. >> I am a sergeant. >> You're sergeant. >> Correct. [music] I'm a patrol sergeant. >> You're sergeant a lot. >> Yep. So, like I said, I'm investigating you guys cuz they were called [music] you in as being a suspicious person inside videoing the bank. >> No, we never were inside, sir. >> Okay, well, that's not what my RP told [music] me. >> Oh, RP, role player. That's not I don't know what they told you, you know, but we're just investigating. >> Okay. So, are you going to give me your name or not? >> Mhm. I don't know. I didn't do a crime though, did I? >> Demands come one after another. Questions are repeated and the pressure begins to weigh on [music] every response. As the tension reaches its peak, just one more step could push everything beyond the line. But then, a brief moment occurs, just a few seconds, enough to flip the script. And suddenly, what once seemed certain begins to fracture under the very questions being asked. >> As of right now, you're I'm investigating you for being suspicious. If you don't give me your name or identify yourself, that's a crime. >> Look, I'm conducting the investigation. Do I make myself [music] clear? >> 10-23 for now. >> 10-6. I'm conducting the investigation. >> Okay, so are you going to give me your legal first name or not? >> Are you Jordan Jordan? >> I probably do get the best hand job in South Carolina. >> Answer my question, Billy. Are you going to >> to answer mine first. I'm conducting the investigation. For what? >> Put your bag down. >> For what? >> Put your bag down. >> Hey, pal, you listen here. >> Put your bag down. >> Hey, buster, let me say something to you. I'm the one in charge. I'm conducting the investigation. Do you understand me, pal? Did we commit a crime? Clearly not. >> As of right now, yes, you're not >> What crime is it? Oh, I forgot, we don't have the Fourth Amendment, do we? >> Are you going to identify yourself or not? >> Are you going to learn the Constitution, that oath you swore? >> Are you going to identify yourself or not? >> Let me see your badge. Let me identify you first, pal. >> My name is right there. >> Let me see Well, that's not your name. Right there is not a name. >> That is my name. >> No, it's not. >> Yep, it is. [music] >> What's your first name then, Aaron? >> Alex. >> Alex? >> Yep. >> Listen here, Alex. I'm conducting the investigation. Do I make myself clear? >> So, they're refusing to identify themselves to you? >> I'm conducting the investigation. [music] >> Better not be snitching, sir. Better not be doing it. >> Please. >> What's snitching on you? >> I don't know. I thought you were snitching on that. So, I hope you would. >> to you. I'm talking to sergeant here. >> Oh, sergeant? I outrank him. So, these are typical busters. >> that are in the war right now underground? >> Well, you might actually [music] know a bit about something. So, if we could actually I don't have a pen. If you had a pen, I would write stuff stuff down so we can investigate this further. >> I just did. All right, chap, huh? >> Yeah, you know. Collins Aerospace. That's Collins Aerospace. So, this is exactly where they came from, and we do believe they are here. And Sergeant Alex is being naughty boy. But, we're just trying to do the investigation. And we're we didn't go inside or nothing. So, that information, whoever said it, hey, they're snitching, and they're wrong. We're just trying to get the details and trying to go inside, so. >> Did you try going inside before? >> [snorts] >> No, I want to, though. >> But, the women >> inside before? >> No. We've just been literally on the >> As the pressure reaches its peak, one side's confidence begins to waver. Not because of the actions themselves, but because the legal foundation behind them is being scrutinized in reverse. And then, the moment no one expected arrives. No sirens, no handcuffs, yet the way everyone walks away speaks louder than any justification ever could. >> I just have a quick question for you. So, I asked you about your hoodie. So, are you identifying yourself as an ATF agent there? >> No. Are you trying to trick me into committing a crime? >> you a question. You clearly are. You got to realize this. My IQ is around 62. I'm smart as hell. >> What's my IQ? It's like It's like 62 or some like that. >> Okay. >> Golly. >> So, is there anywhere is there anything that I can help you with today? >> This investigation, if we could actually get inside and I just want to check the vault. That's literally all we're trying to do. >> Okay. Well, unfortunately, I don't think the bank wants you in there to check their vault. So, they've got some people to do that. So, >> Does that gentleman is he the bank manager? The branch manager? >> That's our chief of police. >> So, he's the police chief is what you're telling me. >> Yep. >> That sounds almost unbelievable cuz he's not wearing a uniform. >> Nope. He actually just got off. He's going to work out at the gym. So, >> Where Where's the local gym? I need to speak with him. >> Like the >> The gym he's going to cuz I would like to ask him some questions. >> Sure. It's the Mercury Community Building. >> Okay. I don't know where this is, but I will investigate it further. Um I mean, we ain't going inside. >> Okay. >> I mean, I I would like to go inside. >> You haven't committed a crime. There's nothing that I'm worried about. I'm just asking if you would identify yourself. And if you don't want to identify yourself, then that's fine. I'll let you guys go be on your way. Just ask that you just don't don't uh you know, cause the bank any issues or anything like that. >> I do have a question. >> Yes, sir. >> I had a contact in my eyeball. >> Okay. >> This eyeball. >> Uh-huh. >> It rolled in the back of my eyeball. >> Okay. >> So, do you know how to get that out of there? >> I don't. I can get you a medical if you want. >> There is no declaration of victory, no admission of wrongdoing, yet in every word, every glance, the initial confidence is no longer intact. No one is placed in [music] handcuffs here, but some moments carry more weight than an arrest ever could. When we tolerate small abuses of power because no one was arrested, the price we pay tomorrow may [music] be far greater.
