This video provides a comprehensive overview of the evidence in the September 23, 2018 DWI arrest of Los Lunas Police Department Sergeant Michael Romero. I have been investigating Romero's arrest for nearly two months and have uncovered evidence indicating that Romero may have committed another crime in addition to DWI. In a forthcoming video I will present the evidence in support of that claim and will also provide an update on Romero's criminal case, which has taken a couple of interesting turns. Now, a bit more about this video. First, as you may have noticed the footage of Romero's field sobriety tests was not captured on body-worn camera ("BWC"). Nothing nefarious is going on there; the arresting officer's department simply does not have them. The arresting officer did have an audio recorder, though, and what it captured is of particular interest as it was recorded separately from - and runs much longer than - the field sobriety test footage. That recording captures Romero's breathalyzer tests along with many conversations between Romero and his arresting officer, such as Romero's statement that he can always get a job working security at Walmart, and his inquiry about whether his police chief had been called. A note about the FST footage not having been captured on BWC: this video is a reminder of the fact that not all departments have BWCs. In fact, research published in April 2018 by the Police Executive Research Forum found that nearly two-thirds of American law enforcement agencies don't have BWCs on any of their officers. In what I believe to be good news, the same study found that half of those departments had plans to equip some or all of their officers with BWCs.
