Follow our instructions. >> Don't touch me, sir. >> A health issue. >> Hey, what is it? >> She She had a stroke. >> You out of your mind. I'm going to go public. You You people have no idea. What are you doing? She's 80 years old woman. >> I can't give you information. >> She came to a doctor. I'm looking on the GPS. >> On a scorching day in Cape Coral, Florida, an 80-year-old woman, Natalyia, was detained by police after a minor parking lot accident. Florida statute 316.066 mandates that officers investigate crashes to determine fault and ensure public safety. Witnesses reported Natalyia struck a parked vehicle and staff inside a nearby facility raised concerns about her behavior, noting slurred speech and slow responses. Officer Maduro, suspecting impairment, instructed her to put her car in park, but she struggled, activating windshield wipers and shifting to neutral instead. This led to her being handcuffed and placed in a police SUV, sparking outrage from her son, who arrived to find his mother in distress. >> Put the car in park for me. >> What? >> Put the car in park. You're not free to leave yet. >> I have to wait. >> Okay. Well, you're not free to leave yet, ma'am. I'm going to tell you. Put the car in park, please. >> Listen to this.

Okay. >> I wait for my doctor. >> Okay. And I'm sorry to hear that, but we're not finished here. Ma'am, come here. I'm I'm not done with you.

We're going to we're going to move on to the next exercise. Natalyia recovering from a stroke and hip replacement exhibited symptoms like slurred speech and unsteady movement which officers mistook for intoxication. Florida statute 322.05 requires drivers to be physically capable, but officers must consider medical conditions during impairment assessments. Despite her son explaining her stroke history and medication use, Officer Maduro insisted on field sobriety tests, which Natalyia couldn't perform due to physical limitations. Her inability to walk a straight line, a test she was destined to fail, was used to justify her arrest. This raises questions about whether officers adequately considered her medical history before escalating the situation. What I want you to do is we're going to use this line for this next exercise. Stand right there facing this way. Stand right there and face that way. Natalia, stand right here. Right here where I'm standing. No, I want you to stand right here and face that way. Okay? Take your left foot and put it on this line. Take your left foot and put it on this line like this. Put your foot on that line. Okay. Stay right there.

I'm tired. >> Are you going to complete the exercise? >> I'm tired. >> Okay. I don't care if you're tired right now. My job is to make sure that you're safe to drive. >> You're not What's your name? >> I'm going to tell you one more time. I'm going to give you the instructions to the exercise one more time. Put your left foot on that line. Put your right foot in front of that left like such and put your hands at your side. You're going to stay like that until I tell you to begin. Do you understand? >> Okay. When I tell you to start, you're going to take a series of nine heel to toe steps, counting out loud, looking down at your foot. Nine heel toe steps on this line. It's going to look like such. Where uh where you work? >> I work for the city of Cape Coral. >> Cape Coral? I will find you. >> You're not free to leave. Are you going to complete the exercise? >> I'm tired. >> I don't care if you're tired. Are you going to complete the exercise? >> I'm asking you I'm asking you to complete exercises to determine whether or not you're safe to drive. >> I feel very very Same for you. >> Are you going to complete the exercises? If not, I'm going to take you to jail based on what I've already seen. Are you going to continue? >> Okay. Put your left foot in front of your right. Put your hands down by your side. When I tell you to begin, you're going to take nine heel totoe steps on this line, counting out loud. When I tell you to begin, stand how I told you to start. Stay like that until I tell you to begin. When I tell you to begin, take nine heel to toe steps like such. One, two, three. Again, counting out. Stand where I told you to stand.

She's absolutely not. >> So, we did our own investigation. >> She's on medicine. Are you kidding me? You taking her to jail? >> It could be what it is. >> Are you out of your mind? I'm going to go public. You You people have no idea. What are you doing? She's 80 years old woman. >> I can't give you information. >> She came to a doctor. I'm looking on the GP. Yes, she's here.

Could you please release her arms, hands? She's not violent. Unbelievable. I'm calling my wife. She knows all the medic. Do you need She needs to need a list of >> I don't need that right now. Just tell me. >> She's She's on blood pressure medication. >> She's She's Maybe they gave her something there. Uh she struck someone on the way here. >> Correct. That's what we got called out here for was that she was involved in an accident in the parking lot. >> Over here. >> Over here. Where? No, this is an old one. >> Okay. Well, we have >> That's an old one. That's not >> We have a witness that says that they noticed it. >> This is an old one. I can I I can assure she Okay. She She did that a long time ago. >> Okay. If you give me an opportunity, I'm trying to explain it to you. Okay. >> Okay. Go ahead. >> We got called here for an accident. Witnesses say that they watched her hit another vehicle in the parking lot. >> Where's the vehicle? If you give me an opportunity to explain, I'll tell you the whole situation. Okay? >> Vehicle was parked over there where I'm parked now. Your mother pulled into the parking lot next to them or parking spot next to them, struck that vehicle, and continued here. She then got out of the vehicle and went inside and continued her business in there until she came back out here. Okay. When I got here, I was called here by this officer based on concerns from the staff inside that she was impaired. >> With tattoos, he's an officer. He's one of our our civilian officers. Yes. Okay. >> He was called here to investigate the crash. He called me because of the concerns that were voiced by the staff on her behavior and her speech and things like that. The concerns >> what if she's violent or >> I'm trying to explain it to you if you give me the opportunity. >> Did you get to the point? Cuz here >> Well, you want all the facts as to why she's in handcuffs in the back of my car now. I'm trying to explain that to you. >> What did she do? >> Okay. When I got here, she attempted to put the car in reverse and refused to listen to me telling her to put the car in park cuz she was not free to leave. At that point, I gave her strict commands to put the car in park. She reached up to put the car in park, but actually turned on the windshield wipers and then reached down and actually put the car in neutral, took her foot off the brake, the car started moving backwards, at which point I told her, "You're not in park." She put the car in drive, drove forward, and then finally after the third attempt, put the car into park. Okay. I then asked her to step out of the vehicle so I can investigate further. Okay. As to her impairment. Her speech is slurred. She's slow to respond to questions. These behaviors that she's presented by not doing as I instructed and doing is she scared her. Of course, you know what? This 80 years old woman after she had a stroke. She she had a broken hip. She's from hospital to a hospital. She cannot be arrested. She needs to go home. She didn't do anything. She's not violent. I can >> Are you saying that we should have let her drive away? >> No. No. I'm going to take her home. She's not going to drive. She's not going to drive till she's going to be off the the medicine. Let me take her home. >> The other part of this was that I asked her to do some exercises to determine whether or not she was impaired. She refused to do them. Okay. The little bit that she did do shows me that she probably is impaired. The situation turned distressing when officer Maduro forcibly handcuffed Natalyia, pulling her arms back tightly, causing visible pain. Florida statute 776.051 prohibits excessive force during arrest, requiring officers to use only necessary restraint. Her son described the act as sadistic, noting Natalya's disorientation and shaking while confined in a hot police SUV without air conditioning. For an 80-year-old with health issues, this treatment was not only inhumane, but potentially life-threatening. The tight handcuffs and lack of ventilation ignored her vulnerability, amplifying the family's distrust in the officer's actions. >> Probably by her probably by her medication, which means she's not safe. She's not safe to drive. >> She's not safe to drive. I I agree with you. >> That all stems from the fact that she had an accident in the parking lot here. So, she shouldn't have been driving in the first place. >> Yeah, she's not going to drive. I assure you that. Please. >> Okay. Where's the other vehicle, though? We're going to take care of that. >> The other vehicle's gone. They didn't even know that they were involved in an accident. >> Do Do they have any damage? Cuz this this is an old damage. >> I I don't know. I was not here for the accident investigation. >> Yeah. Cuz if they left, they didn't have any damage. I mean, we have an insurance. We have a lawyers. We are strong lawyers and we know that. We know if anything is going to happen. One phone call, every everything's going to be taken care of. We live right around the corner. We >> I still have a job to do. We But you can't I You're not going to take her, are you? >> You cannot take her. >> From what I've seen, she's impaired. She should not be driving. >> She's not impaired. >> Okay. That's not for That's not the determination for you to make. >> Listen, are you Are you ready to face to face the judges? Are you ready to that? I think you enough. You are too young for that, sir. I >> This is not my first DUI, so don't she's not drinking. She's not >> I'm not going to sit here and and debate it with you. >> She's not drunk. Are you are you out of your mind? >> Impairment doesn't necessarily mean alcohol. As I've already explained, I I don't >> medications. Yeah, she So, she should not be driving. >> Maybe the doctor. So, you know that. So, why is she driving? >> I didn't know when she left. >> Okay. So, the blame is not on us. The blame is on you if you allowed her to drive knowing she's not supposed to. >> She's not drunk. She's not. Okay, let me ask you. >> She's under medication to continue taking. >> Let me ask you this one question. >> Blood pressure might might go high up and she will die. >> Let me ask you this one question. >> That sir, you don't want to go to jail. Trust me, you don't go to go to jail for that. God forbid something happened to my mother. I will not leave you alone for the rest of your life. >> Let me ask you this. You have to understand. You have to understand that. >> Let's say your mother, we're going to take everything you have. My attorney is going to is going to cheer you up. I I suggest you don't make my mother. >> It's not up to you. It's not a threat. It's a state. It's a statement. It's not up to you. You can record that. You can put your You put your your cameras on. I don't really care. >> Okay. >> Let me ask you this. Let's say we let your mom drive out of here without investing. She's not going to drive. >> Listen to me for one second. Let's say we allowed your mom to drive out of here without determining whether or not she was impaired. Let's say we did a simple crash investigation. We ignored the concerns that they voiced about her being impaired. We let her drive out of here without determining impairment. Let's say she pulls on to veterans and runs a red light and hits and kills somebody or kills herself because she was impaired. Then whose fault is it? >> Then would you be upset because she got in an accident and killed herself or killed somebody else? >> I have a vehicle. I'm going to >> I understand that. But we're beyond that point. >> We know that >> she's not going to drive. >> Absolutely. >> Leave the car right here. >> We know that, sir. >> She's got driver's Have you seen her driver's license? >> Her driver's license is right here. Yeah. >> Okay. So, she's she's got valid driver's license. >> Okay. But that still doesn't >> drive insurance. She's got everything she needs. >> That still does not ignore the fact that she's >> You are making You're making a false statement. >> I'm not. Based on my training and experience, your mother is impaired and should not be driving a vehicle. >> We're doing our job. We're taking our responsibility. We take >> We cannot take her to jail. It's It's ridiculous. >> You guys You guys on the wrong, you know, go arrest criminals. There's all over the place. There's all over the place. There's a >> Natalya's son passionately confronted the officers, begging for her release and warning of legal consequences if her health deteriorated. Florida Statute 9001.15 allows arrest based on probable cause, but officers must balance this with reasonable judgment. He emphasized Natalya's nonviolent nature and medical needs, pleading for her to be released to his care rather than jailed. After 30 minutes of heated discussion, the officers consulted their sergeant who agreed to release Natalyia without charges, provided her son drove her home. This resolution came too late to prevent her trauma as she was left shaking and soaked in sweat. >> Drug dealers. >> Listen, do you think what are you doing? >> Do you really think we want to be doing this, sir? >> Yes, you are. Because you are looking for easy target. That's what you're doing. >> That's what we're doing. We're looking exactly what you're doing. I know you I know you guys. I know more cops than you do. >> Okay. Okay. >> All right. >> Where I'm I'm from, I'm That's beside Besides the point. I used to train cops. I don't drive. >> Okay. >> Okay. [Applause] >> Well, that's going to be disaster. She needs her medication. >> Would you Would you call your wife and find out what medications those are that she's due today? [Applause] Can you at least release her handcuffs? She cannot sit at that position. She's not violent. Please. >> She's in custody right now. It's It's a protocol that we have to follow. >> Is it Is it dead your phone? >> No, it's not. It was never dead. No. Listen, I I know you're upset and I I can understand that. Just take a breath. >> It's my mother. >> Think of what's your next the next step. >> I I have maybe you turned it off by mistake or something. I don't know. >> No, it's not turning off for some reason. Why? What is going on? >> Did you have an appointment here today? >> Yes. >> At what time? >> It was 4:05. >> 4:05. And she was >> I can hear my phone, but I can't What's going on? >> She was coming by herself. >> Oh, yes. >> She drives herself everywhere pretty much. >> Yes. >> Maybe something happened. Maybe she went maybe she's got, you know, little little fainted, but there's no reason. You should call an ambulance, not take her to jail. Just operate. you here? Did Did she call you something? >> No, I have a GPS on her. I have a GPS on all my family and I was I was going home and I I know she's here for the appointment and I see she's right here where you guys I pulled in. >> You live right around the corner here. Just one second. >> So, you were checking her in the GPS just to see >> that she was home or if she was still here. >> No, I can see but I don't know. >> Is it too dark? Is it that you don't see? >> Yeah, it's too too dark. See that? >> Yeah. >> And I >> if you right scroll down and then you'll see the the And then you could increase the >> Yeah. If I can see turn it off. >> Okay. >> All right. What's your first name, sir? >> Eugene. >> Eugene. Okay, I talked to my sergeant. Okay, so that we can come to a resolution of what's going to be the best. Okay, like I said, everything that I've seen from what I investigated on your mother, she's impaired. She should not have been driving in the first place. Okay, as I said, I'm sure you can understand that had she caused a crash, she got into a crash where she seriously injured herself or somebody else, it'd be a different story. Okay, nothing happened. >> So, this is what's going to happen. We're going to release her to you, okay? so that you can drive her home and I'm going to put in for her license to be reeval for her to be re-evaluated on the status of her driver's license. Okay. Until that happens, she cannot drive. >> Okay. Likely it's probably a a result of the medications that she's taking. Okay. Can we agree on that? >> Yes. >> Okay. >> So, >> sorry I cannot all of a sudden my phone went there. >> Okay. >> You understand from our standpoint though? Okay. Has this has this been somebody else's family member? >> We're going to take care of it, you know, whatever it takes. >> Okay. Because we have a job to do regardless of her her age and and her medical history. >> We have to take that in consideration. The fact that she's driving impaired by those medications. Okay. >> Thank you. Let me just get out. >> I'm going to let her out of my car. I'm going to bring her over. You want her in the front seat or? >> Yes. I'm going to put her in the front seat and I'm going to lock up the car. Come back here with my wife and pick up the car later. >> Okay. [Music] Natala. >> Yeah. >> This is what's going to happen. Okay. Your son's going to drive you home. You can't drive. >> Okay. Instead of you going to jail today for DUI, we're releasing you to your son.
