There's no other end to that. So don't try to belittle me and make me seem like I'm a male or female. I'm a female. I would like to talk to someone that's a female. [ __ ] [ __ ] >> I think I treated you actually pretty nice. I I can tell that you're upset. >> Yeah, I'm upset because I'm correctly upset. People think I'm lying. >> Like, >> every time I come here and every time I [ __ ] get deal with this [ __ ] I made a fully legal left turn with my turning signal. >> Future reference. Okay. If you become if you get in this problem again, okay, easiest way out of it is to just comply with >> I was complying. He pulled me out of the vehicle. >> Okay. >> He pulled me out of the vehicle. I didn't get my registration or anything because he didn't tell me what I did wrong. >> Okay. All right. >> You got DUI, too. >> Yeah, she's hammered. >> Yeah, I agree. I'm going to ask her if she wants to do SFS. >> Hey, Miranda, I got a question for you. Okay, listen. I believe you're under the influence of alcohol. Would you be willing to >> I would be. >> You'd be willing to complete the standardized field soiety for me. >> Because I wasn't under the influence. I was looking for my vehicle. I mean, looking for my car in my friend's vehicle. >> Okay. >> I didn't go anywhere. And you know that I didn't You made a U-turn behind me. >> I did because I saw you. You made it. You turned behind me because it was on a yellow light and I had to right away and I made the right turn. >> That's incorrect. I told you why I pulled you over. You're good. >> And even after that, >> listen, I'm not arguing. Give me just a second. >> You are though. >> She's convinced that I stopped her because she went through the yellow light. And I'm like, that's not why we're stopping. >> She wants to argue about it instead of listening. So, >> yeah. Well, that's my concern right now is if I get her out of this car, she's just going to keep arguing with me and I don't know how far I'm going to get through these exercises. you give her the opportunity and if she's not compliant then >> cuz I I can tell you after her resisting me trying to get cuffs on her, I don't want to take them back off. Sergeant, I'll be 100% honest with you. >> I think she believes that I'm about to do a breathalyzer and I think that's what she agreed to do cuz she's asking me if I pass the breathalyzer right here, am I going to go free? >> Oh, okay. >> Hey, Miranda, what deputy wants you to do is field sobriety exercises. >> Mhm. Do you know what the difference between that and the the breathalyzer is? >> Yes. What I asked was uh is that what the probable cause? >> The probable cause is a traffic stop and the odor of alcohol. >> Right. But he didn't give me the odor of alcohol. He pulled me out of my vehicle because he said I made a traffic in violation, but didn't give me the give me the description of that. >> We're not going to stand here and debate the reason. >> I'm not debating that. But I know you you know that I've been stopped before and I've been in the jail because the hurricane and I can't go out to jail because of bond. So, I was very compliant because of that. So, there was no reason for me not to be compliant. With that being with that being said, why would I go back to jail knowing that my bond can be revoked and I can go to jail for that? >> What we're asking you to do is build soiety exercises. >> My thing is is if I will be able to pass that, what will go after that? >> We would make a determination at that point. >> Determination at that point. >> And will I be able to get a traffic violation? >> I'm not going to tell you one way or the other because we're not there yet. >> I understand that. I'm trying to hold everything over your head or tell you. >> I'm being very very understanding and I'm trying to understand what's going on at this point. Even if I were to pass or not pass, where is the violation that I committed? >> Again, I'm not going to debate. >> I I don't know the violation that I committed is what I'm saying. >> He was explaining it to you when you were standing over there screaming. >> No, I wasn't. I I literally got pulled and grabbed I have a literally mark on my arm to show that he literally put me over when I told him that was a woman. And I rather female because he told me he wanted to search. >> You don't have that option. >> I didn't have the option. But but I'm saying what police officer. >> Come on. I'm talking to you guys literally. I know you before. You met me before. I'm trying to tell you that he upset me because he told me I I I what can I identify as and I'll identify as a male or female. So are you making me uncomfortable trying to me make me feel like I'm not a male or female? >> It's great. Be respectful. >> No, it's not respectful because the way you said it. >> That that's how you perceive it. Okay. >> But exactly. And that I'm only being compliant because of that. But I'm not being in compliant because of his actions. I'm being compliant because of what he said. >> So at this point, are you going to submit to field sobriety exercises? >> Even if I submit or not submit, if I'm going to be able to pass >> going to submit. >> No, not submit. Okay, perfect. >> I want to submit, but I need to know the answer to that. >> You're under arrest for >> Hello. Yes. Can I please get my barbarity test, please? didn't do when you step out for me. I'm going to search you. >> May I get my varieties ass? Like, god damn, I didn't do [ __ ] What the [ __ ] I'm not even drunk.
