Did you just say Did you just lie to me again? >> The stop was legally clean. 55 and a 40 establishes reasonable articulable suspicion under Terry v. Ohio 392 US1 1968 when she said she left her license at home. Florida statute section 322.03 applied requiring drivers to carry their license on their person at all times. The dispatch return changed everything. The license was not absent. It was suspended. a separate legal status. Driving on a suspended license is a firstderee misdemeanor under that same statute. From that point, arrest was constitutionally supported. When she said she had never been arrested, then clarified she meant as an adult, that clarification was legally accurate. Juvenile adjudications are sealed under Florida Statute Section 9 85.04. But the initial denial gave the officer cause to doubt her credibility for the rest of the stop. >> No, you said arrested. Most of the time, >> arrested. I talk about >> Hang the phone. Step out the car. >> Hang up the phone. Step out the car. Can you >> relax? Relax. You come down. >> Hang up.

Give me your arm. >> Try to arrest me. >> Give me your arm. >> Best friend. Call you now. Call you now. >> Are you seriously resisting right now? >> No, I'm not resisting. >> Why are you pulling away? >> I'm not pulling away. I just try to give you ditch. >> Excuse me. You just said someone can pick up my car. >> Are you serious? >> Come on. Come on, bro. We're both >> I don't care about that. Listen. Listen. >> I don't care about that. Stop talking when I'm talking. >> Yes, sir. >> All right. That's the last thing I'm going to tell you. >> Yes, sir. >> Okay. If I If I put If I tell you on your back, put on my back.

Okay. >> Hey man, listen. I guess we have to be honest and everything lie. >> So, you take the right to jail, >> huh? >> Take a ride to jail. >> Why would I be going to jail? >> You drive without a license. >> Huh? >> Drive without license. >> Okay.

As a matter of fact, I'm not paying to get with you, bro. I'm not paying to get with you. >> I'M NOT GOING IN THE CAR. LISTEN, I'M NOT GOING IN THE CAR. >> TOLD YOU TO RESIST ME. DON'T RESIST THIS.

Please have another stand up right now. >> I would like another officer to talk to you. >> Stand up right. So, you're going to go to jail. You know, right?

SO YOU DIDN'T THROW me on the ground? >> Cuz you're resisting. >> How did I resist? I SAID, "CAN YOU STOP PUTTING ME IN A BATHROOM?" STAND UP RIGHT NOW WITH MY little sister. >> Young lady, stand up right now. >> NEVER BEEN AN OFFICER THAT'S HAD DONE this to me. You asked me if I've been arrested.

NOW HE'S TAKING ME OUT MY car and arresting me. >> Go in the car. You don't have a license. >> OKAY. BUT YOU JUST SAID YOU WAS GOING TO ALLOW SOMEONE TO PICK up my car, sir. >> Your car? No. I didn't say I said you could go to jail right now. >> You said lady, can you please go in the car, please? Thank you. Listen, right now you determine your fate right now. All right. Stand up and get inside a vehicle. >> I'm not going to allow you to put me in a vehicle if my little sisters are right here. I need to know. >> Stand up. >> Can you tell me what's going to happen with my little sister? >> Someone's picking them up, right? You just You just called somebody. >> No, I have to know what's going on with my car. That's only >> Now it's going to Now it's going to be told. Now it's going to be told. >> No, it's not. >> Yes, it is. Yes, it is. >> Guess what? I got money for that. >> Okay, I'm like you. >> That is Wow. That is That's unnecessary. >> Look what you [laughter] just did. You just THREW ME ON THE GROUND. >> I HAD TO. You're resisting. >> You have to throw me on the ground. HOW WAS I RESISTING? IT'S ALL ON THE >> PULLED AWAY. YEAH, it's all the same. >> I came. I was not resisting. >> The command to exit the vehicle is constitutionally settled. Pennsylvania v. Mims 434US106 1977 holds that officers may order any driver out during a lawful stop without additional justification. Refusing is not a legal option. It is a separate criminal exposure. Pulling her arm away during cuffing activated Florida statute section 843.02. Resisting an officer without violence. She did not strike anyone, but active non-compliance during a lawful arrest meets the statutory definition and the body cam documents it precisely. The ground takeown is evaluated under Graham v. Connor 490 US386 1989 which requires force to be objectively reasonable from the officer's perspective at the moment of decision. Solo officer active resistance. No backup. Bystanders closing in. A ground control response clears that threshold. The tow decision is the most contestable call in this footage. Florida statute section 316.2135. 2135 authorizes discretionary towing after an arrest but does not require it. A licensed family member was present. Towing anyway sits at the punitive edge of what the law allows. The statements from the back seat added a sixth charge. Florida statute section 843.04 covers threatening a public official. Audio recorded in a patrol vehicle is admissible evidence. What is said in that back seat is not venting. It is on the record. The case resolved with a deferred prosecution agreement. The state attorney treated the charges as valid but appropriate for diversion, consistent with how prosecutors handle a first contact misdemeanor case involving no prior adult record. >> Go away. >> Go away. Are you their mother? >> YEAH, THIS IS MY AUNTIE. PLEASE GRAB HIM. >> RIGHT. [screaming] [screaming] >> YOU GUYS HEARD ME. RECORD THIS. RECORD IT. >> DON'T do not grab me. Do not GRAB ME. DO [laughter] NOT GRAB ME. >> That way. Give me your hand. >> I did nothing. >> What are you going through? >> This is so childish. >> Get your hands out. >> Excuse me, sir. >> Put her in the car. >> Excuse me, sir. You see how you see how you got to treat animals? >> Excuse me, sir. I need to know what's going on with my sister. >> Your door. I got it. I got you. >> Excuse me, sir. >> You good, Blake? >> Excuse me, sir. May I speak May I please give me just a moment? >> Listen, if you got to take me to jail, I don't care. I need to speak to you guys, please. >> Ma, call. Leave >> you a transport. >> I can't >> stay on the phone with him. >> Are you done with the cop? >> Yeah, I am. >> Put in my car for nothing. >> Yes. >> Okay. Here. Here. Blake. Let me let me fix the cuffs and everything. Excuse me. You can call my dad. >> 561. >> Yeah, you can GO TO MY DAD'S HOUSE. >> YEAH. >> It's It's okay. It's okay. >> I don't need TO GO TO JAIL. >> IT'S OKAY. >> It's okay. All right. I'm [laughter] going to be I'm going to be out tonight. >> Hey, what what's your name? >> Excuse me, sir. This I'm Jaylen. Listen, sir. He said someone can pick up my car. >> All right. >> He put me in cuss because I said I have never been arrested before. Which I was talking about I've never been arrested as a adult. >> Okay. >> So he put me in cuffs because I've been arrested as a as a juvenile. All of this is on camera and I swear to God he threw me on the ground for what? >> Okay. >> Now I'm going to jail. Right. >> Well, again, I don't really know what all is going on. I'm just here as backup. Listen, this man was I don't know if he's on steroids. This is very irate. >> All right. All right. So, hold on. Stop moving. Okay. I got to adjust these cuffs. If you keep moving, they're going to tighten up on you. >> Okay. >> All right. Give me a second. >> I'm not going. >> Put everything on. We want our sister back. She did good. She promis she's a nice sister. She loves everybody. She >> does nothing. >> She can't drive, my dear. >> Yeah. And she's going and she's going to jail cuz I don't want her to go to jail. >> Okay. >> I swear to God everything I love. You probably just slamming women on the ground for what? Obviously, you guys can see it was no resist in the camera. Like I said, I was in a warehouse at [screaming] the time. >> Again, I don't know anything about what's going on. >> Okay. So, I didn't You guys came arrest me for no reason. What are you guys going to arrest me for driving without a license? >> Yeah, he says you don't have a license. Is that true? >> Yes. No, I don't have a license. You guys have been arrested for driving without a license. >> I guess that's what he's arresting me for. I'm not sure. Okay. But that is an arrestable offense. >> Okay. Kayla, are are you on the phone with Lee? >> Hang up and call him. Remember my password. >> Call him now. It's okay. Stop recording. Just call. >> You have anything on your sharp might stick me, cut me, poke me, anything like that? >> No, you can't tr You can't search me. I rather I rather a woman search me, sir.

Go for >> I don't want to be in the car with him. I refuse. No, I resist. You guys are already getting me from resisting, right? Can you take me, please? I don't want to be in the car with him, PLEASE. NO. NO. HE'S TREATING me Listen, he's treating me wrong. This is not right. You don't throw ME ON THE GROUND, OKAY? AND I KNOW EVERYTHING'S GETTING RECORDED. SO, HE'S GOING TO GET IN TROUBLE for this. This is wrong. >> This is wrong. So, I need to KNOW WHAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN WITH my little sisters. You guys You guys can't just put me in here without letting me know what's going to happen with my little right now. >> HEY, THAT'S OKAY. RELAX. >> OH, what's up? Why are you Why are you holding for resistant >> so you know what slipper cuffs her cuffs and everything like that. She's driving our license. >> GET ME OUT OF THIS CAR, PLEASE. I CAN'T DO THIS.

Uh she's being all right in the back of the car. Uh he's going to release the car. >> Uh it's just somebody has to be able to come and drop it. >> That's my dad. >> Your dad? >> Okay.

YO, GET ME OUT OF HERE, BRO. >> [singing] >> Um um [screaming] um UM [screaming] wa Are we ready to go now, sir? [music] >> The arresting officer earns a B minus. The stop, the arrest, and the force level were all legally grounded. The grade drops for characterizing a legally accurate clarification as deception, and for choosing to tow when a licensed family member was standing at the scene. Experienced officers handle both of those calls differently. The driver earns a C++. She did not physically assault anyone and showed genuine concern for her siblings, but she drove on a suspended license, gave misleading information, resisted a lawful arrest, and made recorded threats from the patrol car. Each decision either added a charge, or narrowed her legal options. The backup and supervisor officers earn an A minus. They adjusted the cuffs correctly, communicated clearly with family at the scene, and deescalated a situation that could have continued to deteriorate. Their professionalism measurably improved this encounter. Five takeaways from this footage. Not abstract principles, but the specific points where this encounter went sideways and where different choices would have produced a different outcome. First, your license status is your responsibility before the key turns. A suspension you did not know about is still a suspension under the law. Check your driving record because courts do not accept unawareness as a defense. Second, the fifth amendment applies at traffic stops. You must provide your name and license. You are not required to volunteer your arrest history. Silence is not evasion. It is a constitutional right and invoking it early is almost always the smarter move. Third, refusing a lawful exit command is a criminal charge on top of whatever triggered the stop. Pennsylvania vims is settled law. The place to contest an unlawful stop is in a courtroom. Compliance preserves your options. Resistance eliminates them. Fourth, if your vehicle is at risk of being towed, make the presence of a licensed driver known immediately and calmly. Officer discretion is real and your behavior in that moment is one of the inputs that shapes how it gets used. Fifth, everything said in a patrol vehicle is recorded and admissible. Florida statute section 843.04 does not require physical contact. A verbal threat on audio is sufficient. In this case, it added a charge that a deferred prosecution had to cover. For law enforcement, discretionary decisions are the ones that communities remember. Towing when a licensed family member is present, treating an accurate legal clarification as a lie. These choices outlast the call and define how an officer is perceived long after the report is filed. The legal standards in these encounters are wellestablished.
