If they where stupid they'd come back an hour later with face coverage and have forgot to change their clothing. caused an easy match. If smart they'd just shuffle along.
@@WielkaStopa-qh1rr- It happens in the US all the time as well, which is why you need to record it yourself. I saw one case where the police actually told an ex-girlfriend of someone's that USED to live in his house, that she could kick down his door and go in and get her stuff that she left. She did just that, then the police FOLLOWED her INTO HIS HOUSE and then tased him when he got out of the shower and told them to get the hell out of his house. MAGICALLY, 3 out of 4 of the body cameras had a malfunction. Do you know how low the probability would be for that to happen?????? The fact that police even thought it was REMOTELY okay to do any of this is shocking.
Real shit! Once someone says they're recording, Cops these days will say, "we're recording too", but getting the body cam footage is a pain in the ass! Lol if it doesn't "disappear" entirely! What a joke!
Because if those citizens didn’t record they would sweep their unlawful actions under the rug. Same reason why they hate when we do record. It stops or slows them from doing anything they want and lying about their unlawful actions. They can pause , mute, edit their own body cams but not our cameras.
Yeah, the phrase "if you take one step closer" aimed at someone who isn't moving toward you, even if left unfinished, implies you will use what you have at your disposal, which is at LEAST a tazer, but we all know they carry guns, and threats assume maximum violence.
Not at all, they're guilty of discretion. And your attitude and demeanour will often determine that, if you're a giant ass, if you get out of your vehicle and walk up on police then yeah, you should get a ticket.
Good catch! At 1:15 he starts positioning himself in the line of sight and at 1:24 starts giving a signal. Given that he offending officer seems to run entirely on his limbic system, I wonder if he could even notice his partner or any detail that clue him into the reality he was in rather than his paranoid delusions and power trips.
They later mention when in this situation to turn the phone off. It definitely seems like they're making evidence disappear. Think about what they've already gotten away with already.
Power corrupts and they have a financial incentive to give out tickets and run IDs. Even if the officer is lying, the court will assume the officer just made a mistake and not blatantly lie, and the officer will lose nothing as he's getting paid to go to court. The person stopped will have loss time and money defending themselves in court.
Well by definition they're bad cops. The real question is what's wrong with policing in America and our own attitudes towards policing that allows these law breakers (the Constitution) to exist in the first place.
Coincidentally, even in a SUPER Far Leftie state like California, YOU DO NOT need to inform cops they're being recorded. So thank you for making me research.
What does that do. I've literally never seen a pig get in trouble for lying even when they do it premeditatedly on police reports and in court. A judge once told the DA to charge a pig with perjury and the DA said no.
Exactly, leave them all on the street but take away their qualified immunity and I bet they all start making an effort to go by the guidelines and follow the law. @@CameronMB
He's repeatedly said "I wasnt going to write him a ticket" proving nearly the entire interaction is retaliatory. I guarantee you a judge watching this would drop those charges in a second merely due to the admission that he's angry and retaliating against a civilian.
The thing is the man whether people hate cops or not during traffic stops you don't angrily jump out you car because that can and most definitely will be seen as a threat or guilty. The man escalated everything if he was calm it most likely would not have escalated and he'd get a a warning.
Officer Sanjay making the "neck cut" motion with his hand close to the beginning of the traffic stop should have told Officer DeDouche that he was in the wrong, but he pushed forward regardless. Dude is a menace and needs to be fired and blacklisted.
@@joshp8535 And that was only becasue the driver was clearly not a good victim, he made it clear he knows the law and isn't going to be pushed over, and Sanjay knew about a cop in Walker getting in trouble for this. If the driver hadn't been assertive, they'd have happily victimized him. 🤦
The idea that you shouldn't record close to police is ridiculous especially when you're the subject of the police activity. That kind of law needs to forever be blocked.
That cops partner definitely knew the cop was in the wrong and didn't know how to tell him without saying he was an a****** for doing what he was doing.
Yep had a friend say to a cop who jumped in front of him “OMG I could have killed you!” That was taken as a threat. My friend was doing 70mph (60 zone) and that same cop was killed by a speeder he jumped in front of a year or two later. But he wasn’t the only one who jumped out into traffic. Guess it made them feel tough?
Retaliation against good officers who speak up against bad officers is REAL!!! They basically will have to give up their job if they speak up! IT'S DISGUSTING AND TRUE!
That is why I like how Colorado amended qi, it still isn't perfect though. Officers are required to intervene and report; intervention is slightly based on how bad the situation is. Failure to do so makes any officer involved guilty of a misdemeanor at the minimum.
This is why my kid didn’t become a cop. The teacher in one of her classes told her the blue line was real and thick. If she didn’t back up another cop, even if that cop was blatantly lying, that all of her colleagues would treat her like shit and the higher ups would bully her out. She finished school and got her B. A. in criminology but didn’t go on to the academy. At first I was disappointed and thought the only way to change a f@cked up system was from the inside but with time I’ve seen that she made the right decision. I think the current climate of recording all police interactions is going to make a bigger impact than a lone good cop here and there who doesn’t last long or could get hurt or killed trying to change the system.
Especially when the officer has a handgun, a tazer, a radio, a partner, a car with a shotgun, his own camera and qualified immunity and backup one call away. Yeah, Ican see how a guy recording with his cellphone could be a problem (sarcasmm).
@@jaisonjensen6209except there's a difference between recording someone, which doesnt hurt someone behaving lawfully, and searching them or their things unlawfully (which is usually where they try to hide behind that phrase)
@@jaisonjensen6209 I think my reply would be, "If I am willing to have you look, you shouldn't need to. But, you still need a warrant. It protects both of us."
In my experience people avoiding accountability is prevalent in all careers, but I suppose there could be a correlation of increased probability to the more power said career holds.
A friend of mine got pulled over in Nashville for going 20 over. He has a dashcam and told the officer that his dashcam would show that he wasn't speeding and offered to show it to him. The officer refused. My friend took the footage to court and the judge not only dismissed the ticket, but admonished the officer for not taking my friend up on his offer. He added this to his discussion with the officer: If someone has a dashcam, you have no right to the footage w/o a subpoena.
Thank goodness Officer Sanjay was there - the initial officer has some serious problems with anger management. He admitted on camera that he was changing to a ticket from a warning merely because he got mad at the driver. He has a massive ego issue and lack of understanding of and respect for civil rights. I’m sure that Officer makes a lot of P.O.P. tickets and arrests.
Can you imagine if the other cop was of the same nature. This guy would've been beaten to a pulp and accused of all sorts of charges. His file history should be examined. He's a dirty cop. He even admitted it. Not employable, in my opinion .
Cops are allowed to change their mind on whether they give you a warning or a ticket for literally any reason. It’s stupid, but that’s how it is. There is no law or policy requiring officers to stick to their own initial plans about what to do about a traffic violation. It would very difficult to even enforce something like that
The repeated attempts to restrict the first amendment on a state level is chilling. Transparency provides accountability, and anything that works against that is a gross injunction
Officer has the anti-cannabis sticker on his ticket book but handles his anger like he slams 4 whisky straights each night. The humor of life is always such a giggle.
1:23 lmfao the cop in the back saying to stop. He _knew_ he was wrong at the beginning of the stop!!! “I’ve dealt with him a couple of times, but he doesn’t really cause any problems”.
That horrible officer was about to explode into violence over a citizen not respecting his "authority" He is a danger to citizens he vowed to "Protect and Serve"
No cop vows to protect and serve the citizens, this has been debunked by the scotus. The only thing they serve and protect are the interests of the state not the people.
I also love how officers seem to think they can order people to shut up whenever they feel you are being disrespectful to their presence. These thugs with badges hold no such authority..
They can tell you to shut up if it is interferring with them giving commands, or conducting the stop, like when the offier is explaining the search he is about to conduct.
Hah NWA... It's almost like Black America didn't just start saying there was something wrong with policing in America in 2020.... Or in 1992 with the Rodney King video tape... Or in 1988 with NWAs smash hit... Or in 1969 when the police murdered several Black Panther party members sleeping in their beds and claimed self defense... Or 1865 when Jim Crow vagrancy laws were written; where Black people could be arrested for "walking without a purpose".... I mean I could keep going backwards, but if I go any further Black people technically weren't considered fully human under the law so...
Meh, that's a very old-fashioned mindset. Cops who are still afraid of cameras and witnesses are either old, or trained by old cops. Modern cops know the whole system is corrupt, so cameras and witnesses mean nothing anymore. Did cameras and witnesses help George Floyd or Bryce Masters or literally ANY of the people we've seen in all of these VIDEOS? 🤨
Unfortunately, video footage doesn't make them 100% accountable because there's still Qualified Immunity. And even if that didn't exist (which it shouldn't), it's the taxpayers who usually foot the bill, not the cop. For cops to really be accountable, they should take out personal professional liability insurance the same as other professions do, and if they exhibit a pattern of behaviour that makes them uninsurable, then they also become unemployable.
Unfortunately I think that is where I disagree with the conclusion on this video. While I do no agree with the behavior, because he made the statement “I’m your worst nightmare.” without being explicit that he was referring to a legal and civil lawsuit response, a court would likely rule that gave officer DeBoard the suspicion needed to for the frisk. And that is probably why the cop said he took it as a threat. They’ve been trained to say everything is a threat, that way they have legal cover if things out of hand. Again, I don’t agree with them doing it. Just saying that is how I see it playing out in court. Same with the reason for the stop. Even if his dashcam proves he didn’t cross the lines, it doesn’t prove whether the cop thought it looked like he did and will probably be ruled a valid stop in court. It’s all shady as hell, but just enough fuzzy gray area that you know the courts will side with the cop.
My problem with this is the officer knows the primary officer is wrong, and still allowed him to continue with his unlawful demands. If he can tell them they are wrong privately, why can't he tell while it is occuring to prevent further issues?
The "brotherhood" discourages and punishes the ones who speak out and reprimand eachother. Especially when it is done in front of the public or a camera.
This video illustrates how little these Criminal Cops know or care about your constitutional rights and how the other Cop just stood there and supported the Cop violating your rights.
@@rogusmith2630 They know your rights. They don't care. If it goes to court...the damage is done, they got to harass you with impunity. Only the city pays. Not them. No harm no foul for them.
This officer is clearly a problem. You can tell if he does it to something this minor, what would he do with something more important? Fabricating stories and looking for angles to get this citizen in trouble.
I live near this town and know many officers in that town. It's the external transfers I've heard that do this stuff. I showed my friend who's in the PD this video and he said "yeah, a lot of people do not like that guy in the department."
"He veered to the center lane of travel", when minutes before he said he never left the lane lines. These, folks, these are the people protecting us who have near unlimited power and weaponry. Yep. Scary
@@nieshamccoy9419yes that makes him just neutral. Cares too much about his job to serve and protect like he should. Being a good person is a sacrifice nowadays
Really telling how this officer interprets things as a threat when they are in fact not threats and then threatens the citizen with interpretation of a threat. He needs to be fired and put in a safe space.
That is how they gaslight to defend their actions. The same way they say that a person asserting their rights is being a “problem” or has “mental issues”. I’ve seen videos of police threatening to have people put on a 72 hour involuntary hold just because he refused to answer questions. Everything cops do is a manipulation to either get you to give up your rights or to protect their own ass.
Can you imagine a world where people aren’t jerks? Where cops don’t look to extort the people, and the people actually trust cops, and we all have mutual respect for each other? Yeah, me neither.
I live in a country where this behaviour is scarce. It's called the Netherlands but much more countries like mine in Europe. And we are a democracy and we are socialist. And NO check your dictionary it doesn't equals communism. 😂
Shout out to Battosai aka THE Turner in Turner v Driver! 🙌🏾 Also, I love how the guy's own partner tries to set him straight and yet he STILL decides that digging himself in a further hole is a better choice than to deflate his ego😂
"So to be clear, you are going to write me a ticket because I am exercising my Constitutional rights?" Perhaps such a statement would cause some level of warning bells to ring within officer's minds.
it's like the catholic church, just shuffling their priests around anytime they get caught with an alterboy. cop gets caught and fired, 2 days later, gets hired the next town over. and the cycle repeats.
I have OFTEN said, there should be a MINIMUM IQ requirement in order to become a police officer and ACTUAL EDUCATION acquired (criminal justice, police academy, something more than on the job training) and then PAY THEM MORE. Pay for this level of intelligence and education. In our stupid little small towns (that spit out a lot of stupid people) you can become a deputy and start patroling the roads immediately without going to school for certification up to, I believe, a year. They don't know the law, they lack common sense and they've been known to have arrest records themselves! MINIMUM IQ REQUIREMENT--at least then we would know a total idiot with a gun and power hasn't pulled us over!
@@privatename2648IQ tests can vary and have been discriminatory towards race and disability in the past. A minimum GPA requirement would be better as well as psych evals on par with those in Sweden and your suggested coursework.
American are laced with leads and forever chemicals found in McDonald's, shampoo container, and more as reusable drink cup. For 30 years old people, blood test showed extremely high above than the limit. That's problem.
I think the only reason this cop didn’t take it to the next level was because he saw that that man had a dash cam. He walked over there and saw that dash cam. This is a classic example of a bug with a badge earning the heat.
How is that a threat to say "I'm your worst nightmare"? It's the worst nightmare to getting sued, and losing the job because of that. But if the cop is harassing someone and the other person saying that as a promise, it's not a threat, and definitely not a physical threat. 😕
They claim flipping them off is a threat. Two I know of personally were one where the cop jumped in front of a speeder and said speeder said “OMG I could have killed you!”
This is essential, and one way to encourage change. If only to say "I was disgusted with this cops behaviour on this video". Thousands of emails/calls have a funny way of forcing such issues up their priority list.
Now he’s admitted on two recordings that he’s writing the ticket in a retaliatory fashion on top of that he keeps telling him to be quiet and he doesn’t have the authority to do that either regardless of whether he arrest him or tickets and let him go. he doesn’t have the authority to silence him.
Writing a ticket in retaliatory fashion implies the guy didn’t break a law, he was going to use his discretion to ignore the ticket (as is his right as a cop) and since the guy was such an idiot and made it a whole thing, he decided to write the ticket anyway. You guys have brain damage, learn what these words mean so you don’t end up with a 500 dollar ticket for obstruction while looking dumb to anyone with an education.
9:18 look at the sticker on this guys pad. This is exactly the type of officer you’d expect to arrest and ruin someone’s life over a plant legal in most states. What a despicable person.
I'd guess that more than 90% of officers believe that they can frisk anyone they have detained. In all the videos I have seen, no officer has acknowledged that they need a reasonable belief that the person is armed and dangerous. This needs to change.
@@johnhiggs325 What's sad is that, in all of the videos of auditors being frisked, I don't think I have ever seen the auditor say, "Do you believe I am armed and dangerous?" It's always, "I do not consent to a search!" Then the officer deflects by saying "I'm not searching you; I'm frisking you for weapons for my safety," and then no pushback.
It's because the bad cops don't wanna be filmed in their offical duty being who they really are. They dont like being filmed, they say our body cameras are on but they are allowed to mute and stop it whenever they see fit , which makes no sense they should have zero control over their body cam
And seeing as how the cop admitted to the fact that he was not going to give him a ticket but he is now shows you that the cop pulled him over for absolutely no reason and that can be used in court to defend this
We have to get rid of this officer safety claim - until there are no bad acting police there needs to be no protection as it ends up getting citizens hurt.
Of all the issues that threaten the trust between law enforcement and the public, right to record is the most vital and essential. Once we lose that right, many more will follow.
I tried to look up the number of officers killed, but the numbers are muddled. “In the line of duty” includes, car accidents & many lists include off duty and self deletion. So just taking the “line of duty” it’s 100/year. As opposed to the over 1000/year taken out by police officers. But how the hell is Covid included in on duty deaths?
Grade of “C” for the second officer is ridiculous. Walking the line of calling out bad behavior by other officers and not alienating oneself and getting yourself blackballed for not being “part of the team” is a fine line. He handled about as well as you could’ve handled it. Easy to say that he should’ve done this or that… but we aren’t talking about a guy getting choked out or a knee being pressed down on someone’s chest. Any officer would have real fear of losing their job for calling out this behavior in a forceful manner while being recorded.
He was gesturing "no" and "cut it out" in the background so I agree, he tried to deter his behavior. He failed to tell him everything he did in private though.
Fully agree. Additionally, I wouldn't grant the citizen a grade of A. From a legal stand point he didn't do anything wrong, but he depicted a rather hostile attitude from the beginning of the stop. I think keeping your calm, staying friendly and still being assertive about your rights is the way to go. I doubt it would've helped with this cop, but would certainly lead to a better encounter in other traffic stops.
You can clearly see the partner wants to do the right thing but at the same time, plays it carefully to not get retaliation from the department for protecting the citizen. Shameful!
@Playingwithproxies statistics show traffic is the most dangerous part of law enforcement...highway duty, poor weather conditions and construction work.
You know what makes me the most mad about this whole interaction. The officer truly and whole heartedly believes he has the ability and authority to make someone be quiet. I could sing Neon Moon by Brooks & Dunn at the top of my lungs and there is nothing an officer can do about it.
I know it’s a cliche to say it at this point but it really is a shame everything people had to deal with before body cam or cell phone cams and all the innocent people who got in trouble or rights violated. Like that one cop who was planting drugs on people and finally got caught by his body cam. Without that who knows if he’d ever be caught. Even now they still act like this while being filmed. It really is crazy
Dash cameras save the day, yet again!! Had he not told the dirty cop he had a dash camera, it goes without saying he would have written that ticket and committed perjury by lying on his report and again lying under oath in court.
My brother has a dash camera which showes his speed. A cop pulled him over for speeding on I-95 in Florida, and wrote him a ticket. My brother's case was at 1:00 pm, he arrived when the courtroom was opened at 9:00, per the instructions on his ticket. The vast majority of traffic cases that day (around 90%) were from this one officer. When my brother's case came up, the officer went first, noting, as with all of the other cases, his certificate of training, and the calibration documents for his radar. When my brother "took the stand" he offered the judge the dash camera footage, showing his speed at the area in question was 1 - 2 MPH below the posted limit. Upon hearing the offer of conflicting evidence, the judge says "Case dismissed." Perplexed, my brother asked the judge "Don't you want to see the video?" The judge shouted "I SAID CASE DISMISSED! NEXT CASE!"
Yeah they do that on purpose. So the officer can do all his court cases on one day. Best thing to do is contact the courts and request a date change. I have dental surgery scheduled is a good excuse. The cop won’t show.
There is something very suspicious about an officer that regards a camera as a threat to officer safety. You would have thought someone acting in good faith would have nothing to be concerned about. I wonder how he behaves when there are no cameras.
….this situation alone totally proves exactly why police need to be recorded and more auditors are needed. The one and only reason cops hate cameras is because they are worried about getting caught over something.
This cop is the reason why auditors and body cams exist. I strongly believe that if they didn’t; this guy would be in jail on trumped up charges right now.
Sovereign immunity is necessary for the government to function. Qualified immunity is simply an expression of the principle that we are allowed to assume that our actions are legal. The problem with the current interpretation of QI is an overly-strict definition of "precedent setting."
@roberthudson1959 qualified immunity was created by the Supreme Court in 1967 to protect a bunch of racist cops. No one ever voted on it. It's a complete overreaching of judges ..... ultimately protecting themselves. Interesting enough it doesn't apply to doctors and other non government professions. It's the exact opposite of " ignorance of the law excuses not " Being able to declare a lawsuit frivolous should be enough protection.
The officer actually created any perceived “threats” to officer safety by ordering the driver out of the vehicle and ordering him to stand in front of his vehicle. You don’t get to have it both ways by bringing a “threat” closer to you and then have to “control” the threat. For “officer safety”, it was safer to leave him in the vehicle.
Legally incorrect. An LEO has the right to order the driver out of the vehicle for no reason at all, and then is allowed to tell the occupants where to stand, etc. to ensure the safety of the officer. That is why felony suspects often end up spread-eagled on the ground.
Grade F for Officer Sanjay. Was he standing up for justice or just trying to cover his/his partner's butt for the little he helped? He is paid to be courageous and he seemed to have knowingly stayed silent. An enabler.
The fact they’ve tried multiple times to pass laws that make it illegal to film cops within 25 feet is evil
Red states have. Blue states are ending qualified immunity.
Especially when the cop is the one who walks up on the guy with the camera. The cop should be charged for violating that 25' law.
This is all driven by police PAC's and just gives more power to come up with more charges
It kind of reminds me how the knights Templar were allowed to harass people with out any

Officer Sanjay making the "neck cut" motion with his hand close to the beginning of the traffic stop should have told Officer DeDouche that he was in the wrong, but he pushed forward regardless. Dude is a menace and needs to be fired and blacklisted.
Yeah, at 1:25 he was trying to get in his eyeline to be like "stop telling him to put his phone down, idiot"
@@joshp8535 And that was only becasue the driver was clearly not a good victim, he made it clear he knows the law and isn't going to be pushed over, and Sanjay knew about a cop in Walker getting in trouble for this. If the driver hadn't been assertive, they'd have happily victimized him. 🤦
There’s no such thing as a blacklist
I'm glad you notice that hand gesture as well 💯
I totally didn't notice that. Nice callout. Officer Sanjay is like "Dude, you are BURYING yourself right now."
The idea that you shouldn't record close to police is ridiculous especially when you're the subject of the police activity. That kind of law needs to forever be blocked.
You would think that would be a plus for officer safety since filming keeps the hands of a suspect occupied.

Get a different job if that line makes you shake in your boots. Absolutely laughable retaliation there.
It's blood boiling. Way to many bad cops passing the 6months of training 😅. The police force is as big a joke as the politicians.
since when is being a bad dream a threat 🤣
Yep had a friend say to a cop who jumped in front of him “OMG I could have killed you!” That was taken as a threat. My friend was doing 70mph (60 zone) and that same cop was killed by a speeder he jumped in front of a year or two later.
But he wasn’t the only one who jumped out into traffic. Guess it made them feel tough?
Retaliation against good officers who speak up against bad officers is REAL!!! They basically will have to give up their job if they speak up! IT'S DISGUSTING AND TRUE!
And this is the reason I say there are no good cops. The good cops are forced to leave. The rest are bad cops, and complacent cops
Never met a good cop that lasted more than 2 years. They’ll get written up for not tying their shoelaces correct.
Dont care...its their job.
That is why I like how Colorado amended qi, it still isn't perfect though. Officers are required to intervene and report; intervention is slightly based on how bad the situation is. Failure to do so makes any officer involved guilty of a misdemeanor at the minimum.
This is why my kid didn’t become a cop. The teacher in one of her classes told her the blue line was real and thick. If she didn’t back up another cop, even if that cop was blatantly lying, that all of her colleagues would treat her like shit and the higher ups would bully her out. She finished school and got her B. A. in criminology but didn’t go on to the academy. At first I was disappointed and thought the only way to change a f@cked up system was from the inside but with time I’ve seen that she made the right decision. I think the current climate of recording all police interactions is going to make a bigger impact than a lone good cop here and there who doesn’t last long or could get hurt or killed trying to change the system.
"You have the right to remain silent, now use it!" What a disgrace....
Imagine being threatened by a camera as a police officer. What are you.. a criminal?! Only criminals are afraid of cameras

Yay for officer Sanjay!!! Also- NO ONE wants to be anywhere close to 8 feet near officer Duboard's "Unit".
A friend of mine got pulled over in Nashville for going 20 over. He has a dashcam and told the officer that his dashcam would show that he wasn't speeding and offered to show it to him. The officer refused. My friend took the footage to court and the judge not only dismissed the ticket, but admonished the officer for not taking my friend up on his offer. He added this to his discussion with the officer: If someone has a dashcam, you have no right to the footage w/o a subpoena.
Thank goodness Officer Sanjay was there - the initial officer has some serious problems with anger management. He admitted on camera that he was changing to a ticket from a warning merely because he got mad at the driver. He has a massive ego issue and lack of understanding of and respect for civil rights. I’m sure that Officer makes a lot of P.O.P. tickets and arrests.
Can you imagine if the other cop was of the same nature. This guy would've been beaten to a pulp and accused of all sorts of charges. His file history should be examined. He's a dirty cop. He even admitted it. Not employable, in my opinion .

Cops are allowed to change their mind on whether they give you a warning or a ticket for literally any reason.
It’s stupid, but that’s how it is. There is no law or policy requiring officers to stick to their own initial plans about what to do about a traffic violation. It would very difficult to even enforce something like that

How would this officer act if we did not have body cameras? WTF??? This is insane
How would he act if taking away someone's camera meant ripping out their prosthetic eyeball?
The repeated attempts to restrict the first amendment on a state level is chilling. Transparency provides accountability, and anything that works against that is a gross injunction

Or in 1988 with NWAs smash hit...
Or in 1969 when the police murdered several Black Panther party members sleeping in their beds and claimed self defense...

I mean I could keep going backwards, but if I go any further Black people technically weren't considered fully human under the law so...
I believe you are correct on both points.
Meh, that's a very old-fashioned mindset. Cops who are still afraid of cameras and witnesses are either old, or trained by old cops. Modern cops know the whole system is corrupt, so cameras and witnesses mean nothing anymore. Did cameras and witnesses help George Floyd or Bryce Masters or literally ANY of the people we've seen in all of these VIDEOS? 🤨
Holds them accountable but not 100%. Cops try to delete the video or somehow it goes missing.
Unfortunately, video footage doesn't make them 100% accountable because there's still Qualified Immunity. And even if that didn't exist (which it shouldn't), it's the taxpayers who usually foot the bill, not the cop. For cops to really be accountable, they should take out personal professional liability insurance the same as other professions do, and if they exhibit a pattern of behaviour that makes them uninsurable, then they also become unemployable.
The more police try to block the people from filming them, the more it proves how important it is to do so!
Tremble in his voice when he told that other cop in trouble for lying..😅😅
Apparently Officer DeBoard sees _everything_ as a threat. It's a wonder he can get through life at all, as scared as he always is.
He should be placed in a quiet, cozy room with a kitten if he's so worried about citizens
They tend to be rather fearful people.
Your comment is a threat and he’ll act accordingly.
Unfortunately I think that is where I disagree with the conclusion on this video. While I do no agree with the behavior, because he made the statement “I’m your worst nightmare.” without being explicit that he was referring to a legal and civil lawsuit response, a court would likely rule that gave officer DeBoard the suspicion needed to for the frisk. And that is probably why the cop said he took it as a threat. They’ve been trained to say everything is a threat, that way they have legal cover if things out of hand. Again, I don’t agree with them doing it. Just saying that is how I see it playing out in court. Same with the reason for the stop. Even if his dashcam proves he didn’t cross the lines, it doesn’t prove whether the cop thought it looked like he did and will probably be ruled a valid stop in court. It’s all shady as hell, but just enough fuzzy gray area that you know the courts will side with the cop.
Typical right winger. They are scared of everything.
My problem with this is the officer knows the primary officer is wrong, and still allowed him to continue with his unlawful demands. If he can tell them they are wrong privately, why can't he tell while it is occuring to prevent further issues?
That's a lot more awkward.
Just more proof there are no good cops anywhere
The "brotherhood" discourages and punishes the ones who speak out and reprimand eachother. Especially when it is done in front of the public or a camera.
They cannot fathom the idea that a mere peasant could ever see them as fallible.
That would add more chaos to the stop. Would have been better to pull him off to the side and tell him privately.

That is how they gaslight to defend their actions. The same way they say that a person asserting their rights is being a “problem” or has “mental issues”. I’ve seen videos of police threatening to have people put on a 72 hour involuntary hold just because he refused to answer questions. Everything cops do is a manipulation to either get you to give up your rights or to protect their own ass.
It actually was a threat. Just a vague one and exaggeration.

cop gets caught and fired, 2 days later, gets hired the next town over. and the cycle repeats.
In this day and age it seems like the primary function of law enforcement is to give some of the dumbest people in society a job.
I have OFTEN said, there should be a MINIMUM IQ requirement in order to become a police officer and ACTUAL EDUCATION acquired (criminal justice, police academy, something more than on the job training) and then PAY THEM MORE. Pay for this level of intelligence and education. In our stupid little small towns (that spit out a lot of stupid people) you can become a deputy and start patroling the roads immediately without going to school for certification up to, I believe, a year.

I think the only reason this cop didn’t take it to the next level was because he saw that that man had a dash cam. He walked over there and saw that dash cam. This is a classic example of a bug with a badge earning the heat.
You know a stop is going south when the cop tells the dude that he has the right to remain silent, and to "use it..."
This cop should not have his job. This is crazy!
How is that a threat to say "I'm your worst nightmare"? It's the worst nightmare to getting sued, and losing the job because of that. But if the cop is harassing someone and the other person saying that as a promise, it's not a threat, and definitely not a physical threat. 😕
They claim flipping them off is a threat. Two I know of personally were one where the cop jumped in front of a speeder and said speeder said “OMG I could have killed you!”
Hope everyone is contacting these departments to let them know how "safe" their officers make you feel

Writing a ticket in retaliatory fashion implies the guy didn’t break a law, he was going to use his discretion to ignore the ticket (as is his right as a cop) and since the guy was such an idiot and made it a whole thing, he decided to write the ticket anyway.

@@MaydayAggro Their pushback is usually to repeat themselves as nauseum
It's because the bad cops don't wanna be filmed in their offical duty being who they really are. They dont like being filmed, they say our body cameras are on but they are allowed to mute and stop it whenever they see fit , which makes no sense they should have zero control over their body cam
BOOM! 💯Facts!!
And seeing as how the cop admitted to the fact that he was not going to give him a ticket but he is now shows you that the cop pulled him over for absolutely no reason and that can be used in court to defend this
We have to get rid of this officer safety claim - until there are no bad acting police there needs to be no protection as it ends up getting citizens hurt.
Of all the issues that threaten the trust between law enforcement and the public, right to record is the most vital and essential. Once we lose that right, many more will follow.
Contempt of cop is the worst crime you can commit
"Officer safety" is nothing more than an excuse for cowardice.
I tried to look up the number of officers killed, but the numbers are muddled. “In the line of duty” includes, car accidents & many lists include off duty and self deletion. So just taking the “line of duty” it’s 100/year. As opposed to the over 1000/year taken out by police officers.
But how the hell is Covid included in on duty deaths?
Yup. You arnt wrong.

@RickFlanagansorry??
@RickFlanagan great reasoning reminds me of the the short sighted police we watch videos of what department do you simp for?
Grade of “C” for the second officer is ridiculous. Walking the line of calling out bad behavior by other officers and not alienating oneself and getting yourself blackballed for not being “part of the team” is a fine line. He handled about as well as you could’ve handled it. Easy to say that he should’ve done this or that… but we aren’t talking about a guy getting choked out or a knee being pressed down on someone’s chest. Any officer would have real fear of losing their job for calling out this behavior in a forceful manner while being recorded.
I wondered if someone would say this - I think he earned a higher mark for a number that of reasons.
Livingston Parish is full of tyrant. I can say that the guys who work the day shift are way easier to deal with than the night crew.
Completely agree
He was gesturing "no" and "cut it out" in the background so I agree, he tried to deter his behavior. He failed to tell him everything he did in private though.
Fully agree. Additionally, I wouldn't grant the citizen a grade of A. From a legal stand point he didn't do anything wrong, but he depicted a rather hostile attitude from the beginning of the stop. I think keeping your calm, staying friendly and still being assertive about your rights is the way to go. I doubt it would've helped with this cop, but would certainly lead to a better encounter in other traffic stops.
You can clearly see the partner wants to do the right thing but at the same time, plays it carefully to not get retaliation from the department for protecting the citizen. Shameful!
Citizens' safety should always be above officers safe. They work for us!
Exactly.
If the cop is so worried about officer safety, WHY DID HE APPLY FOR THE JOB?
@@PJTYLERbeing a cop isn’t even a significantly dangerous job. 😂😂😂
@Playingwithproxies statistics show traffic is the most dangerous part of law enforcement...highway duty, poor weather conditions and construction work.
You know what makes me the most mad about this whole interaction. The officer truly and whole heartedly believes he has the ability and authority to make someone be quiet. I could sing Neon Moon by Brooks & Dunn at the top of my lungs and there is nothing an officer can do about it.
I know it’s a cliche to say it at this point but it really is a shame everything people had to deal with before body cam or cell phone cams and all the innocent people who got in trouble or rights violated. Like that one cop who was planting drugs on people and finally got caught by his body cam. Without that who knows if he’d ever be caught. Even now they still act like this while being filmed. It really is crazy
Even then,a good amount of these people get away with doing it. These police stations should be sued for this kind of shit.
This is the norm, not the exception, and THAT"s what it means to say that policing is a systemic problem.
How sad. It is examples like this that make it almost impossible to ever support law enforcement.
Dash cameras save the day, yet again!!
Had he not told the dirty cop he had a dash camera, it goes without saying he would have written that ticket and committed perjury by lying on his report and again lying under oath in court.
My brother has a dash camera which showes his speed. A cop pulled him over for speeding on I-95 in Florida, and wrote him a ticket.
My brother's case was at 1:00 pm, he arrived when the courtroom was opened at 9:00, per the instructions on his ticket. The vast majority of traffic cases that day (around 90%) were from this one officer.
When my brother's case came up, the officer went first, noting, as with all of the other cases, his certificate of training, and the calibration documents for his radar. When my brother "took the stand" he offered the judge the dash camera footage, showing his speed at the area in question was 1 - 2 MPH below the posted limit.
Upon hearing the offer of conflicting evidence, the judge says "Case dismissed." Perplexed, my brother asked the judge "Don't you want to see the video?" The judge shouted "I SAID CASE DISMISSED! NEXT CASE!"
Judge doesn't want the best earner to be shown to be lying in court.
Oh geez...
Yeah they do that on purpose. So the officer can do all his court cases on one day.
Best thing to do is contact the courts and request a date change. I have dental surgery scheduled is a good excuse. The cop won’t show.
There is something very suspicious about an officer that regards a camera as a threat to officer safety. You would have thought someone acting in good faith would have nothing to be concerned about. I wonder how he behaves when there are no cameras.
….this situation alone totally proves exactly why police need to be recorded and more auditors are needed. The one and only reason cops hate cameras is because they are worried about getting caught over something.
This cop is the reason why auditors and body cams exist. I strongly believe that if they didn’t; this guy would be in jail on trumped up charges right now.
He should be for being such an insufferable asshole
Imagine if that cop bit his own lip to bleed and charge the defendant for assault on a peace officer???
Thank You for this video and information.
In a world without immunity... cops wouldn't let their partners involve them in a lawsuit.
Sovereign immunity is necessary for the government to function. Qualified immunity is simply an expression of the principle that we are allowed to assume that our actions are legal. The problem with the current interpretation of QI is an overly-strict definition of "precedent setting."
@roberthudson1959 qualified immunity was created by the Supreme Court in 1967 to protect a bunch of racist cops.
No one ever voted on it.
It's a complete overreaching of judges ..... ultimately protecting themselves.
Interesting enough it doesn't apply to doctors and other non government professions.
It's the exact opposite of " ignorance of the law excuses not "
Being able to declare a lawsuit frivolous should be enough protection.
"I was gonna give you a warning but now I'm going to give you a ticket"
"Imma take that as a threat"

I really appreciate how you explain, and cite the laws. Thank you. ❤
The officer actually created any perceived “threats” to officer safety by ordering the driver out of the vehicle and ordering him to stand in front of his vehicle. You don’t get to have it both ways by bringing a “threat” closer to you and then have to “control” the threat. For “officer safety”, it was safer to leave him in the vehicle.
The officer didn’t order him out of the vehicle. He jumped out of his truck and was walking toward the officer.
Legally incorrect. An LEO has the right to order the driver out of the vehicle for no reason at all, and then is allowed to tell the occupants where to stand, etc. to ensure the safety of the officer. That is why felony suspects often end up spread-eagled on the ground.
