🚨 New bodycam footage shows Gulfport Police Sergeant Joseph “Joe” Prine being arrested for DUI in Gatlinburg, Tennessee — after officers say he was swerving, crossing into the oncoming lane, and driving with his police lights activated during what they believed was a drunk driving police incident. According to officers, this traffic stop quickly turned into a DUI arrest caught on camera when they discovered open beer cans inside a city-owned police SUV. The interaction — and the moment Sgt. Prine fails his DUI field sobriety test — was all captured in bodycam DUI footage released this week. In this video, we break down the full police body-camera recording: ✔️ Gulfport officer arrested during off-duty trip ✔️ Sobriety tests, conflicting statements, and refusal of the roadside breathalyzer ✔️ Open container violation inside a law enforcement vehicle ✔️ Discovery of his Gulfport Police badge inside the SUV ✔️ Charges for police officer DUI, carrying a weapon while intoxicated, and misconduct ✔️ Why this is another example of police misconduct caught on video This case raises serious questions about law enforcement accountability, police internal investigations, and why officers who enforce the law often get a different process when they break it. Should police be held to a higher standard when they commit a DUI or violate public trust? Let me know what you think in the comments. ⚖️ Why accountability matters: When a law enforcement DUI happens — especially in a government vehicle with open containers — trust breaks. A civilian would lose their license instantly. But for officers? There’s an oversight review, an internal investigation, and months of waiting. This video analyzes the bodycam in detail, exposes the misconduct, and examines the police disciplinary process step by step. 👍 Support Thin Blue Lies Media Like, comment, share, and subscribe — it pushes this story into the algorithm.
