This is why firefighters are seen as heros and police are seen as a large gang
The song ain't called Fuck Tha Fire Department for a reason!
@strangerdanger4167 wtf
indeed@strangerdanger4167
@strangerdanger4167but outta pocket
Most powerful gang in the country.
Homeboy literally left a bleeding man on the floor to argue with a man that hurt his feelings. The priorities he has is ridiculous.
He did not even "protect" "his" crime scene - he had to create yet another one.
"son it's called the ground when it's outside" Ron Swanson
he is a supposed detective too, what a joke xD
@@drantil That's because promotions no longer happen based upon merit. Promotions are now actively encouraged strictly upon ideology and gender, and skin color (not whyte mail, you get the promotion). You can see the result for yourself. You can be near absolute certainty, that detective never earned the rank.
He was ordered to leave a victim.
The firefighter won the lawsuit and got 325k in damages
Fantastic! I like when these videos have have some updates and we see the tyrants paying for their stupidity.
Thanks for the update, this one had me boiling
👏👏👏😊
@@bjones870 they didn't pay a dime, US citizens did

I was in a horrible car wreck with my cousin a while back and when I woke up from being unconscious there was a firefighter trying really hard to save our lives and a cop just standing there questioning us with 0 attempts to help us. Firefighters are heroes police are gang members looking for a reason to kidnap someone.
Police officers are, as far as i know, not required to give medical aid... even in life threatening situations. they just need to call emergency services. I think that is their legal requirements only.
@@kinagrill cops do first aid and medical all the time💀they literally have equipment for it and are taught how to use them
legally speaking, iirc, they are only required to call emergency services.@@whenitsover3479
@@kinagrill that statement is true by law but that is exactly why some people look at cops like thugs. Trust and respect is earned both ways but the guy holding power and a gun should probably take the first step.
Yes I know, there are plenty of cops that go above and beyond 'minimum requirements'. But there's also WAY many that just skirt by on what is legally and technically required while also abusing their power against the citizens they are supposed to be working for.@@vmrstl
Most dangerous thing in America is the fragile egos of a lot of police officers.
And liberals putting children on puberty blockers
And the bottomless cowardice of the rest who refuse to step in and protect the public. Look how many cops here either fully support the actions of the detective or at least refused to say a single word about it
Go walk around the Wild 100s of Chicago and report back with your findings.

That fireman was an A+. Who gives a shit if he was yelling profanities. He served his community for 27 years and saved a man's life that day.
Exactly! He was just in a high stress situation and was helping a dying man and the cops expect him to stay calm? His adrenaline is quite literally running while this detective just casually arrives and starts yelling for no reason
they screamed at him first
Absolutely and he also had to retire due to a diagnosis of PTSD. Everything they did will escalate that and would cause damage to his health for years to come - that’s even if you ignore the physical damage he did that required surgery to fix.
@@bojohannesen4352 I know right
I was gonna be upset and yelling too… after that long serving the public.
I care! So let's turn your statement around! Why's victim complaining!
The firefighter was probably affected by a HUGE rush of adrenaline and experiencing an emotional reaction to the situation. Finding a man bleeding to then beginning to perform CPR and to then have law enforcement officers treat him like this…yeah, that’s all bound to have profound effect on him. He was trying to save a life…these officers were more concerned with protecting their egos. Disgusting.
I loved how the firefighter kept calling in a Fat fuck lol probably triggered rivera’s high school memories and he got pissed 😂😂😂
The cop literally created the entire situation. Dude was peacefully giving his statement to an officer already. No chill. All ego.
and the officer even told the detective that he was a witness but still the detective just bullied the Sgt. right out of the scene.
The police need to take a personality test before they get the job.
@@sh.4409 Then there would be no police.
People who become cops almost always have the same reasons for it.
1. They were bullied as kids and want to get even.
2. They were bullies as kids and want to keep doing it.
3. Georgie and Dim
4. They want to 'make a difference in their community'.
The last one is the reason most of them give, but it rarely seems to hold up to scrutiny. If they really wanted to make a difference, they would join internal affairs and weed out all the cops that joined for the first three reasons.
I will prefer private security over public security 999 times out of 1000.
And that's going to show up in court, if the city doesn't settle. It's *very* clear who the aggressor is here, the situation was calm and being handled professionally. The retired firefighter of course knows how this has to go, so he's giving a statement where he's been asked to stand and then this detective asshole rolls up and starts yelling about "his" crime scene. There was no reason for the detective to act like that...none. It's certainly not the firefighters fault, he's doing what he's asked. And it's completely over the top that this detective asshole actually leaves the crime scene. further escalates the situation, goes hands on and injures THE WITNESS. At the very least the detective needs some retraining and probably some anger management counseling, or really probably should not be packing a badge and gun.
he started screaming at the cop
It's a dark reality when raising your voice is considered assult against a cop
Like speaking a fact around a democrat bro. A democrat blocked me in a fit of rage when i wouldnt agree with him when he said carbon was "killing us" carbon is the most neutral unharmful element in the universe... the same people cant even properly define what a woman is but theyll put children on puberty blockers and try to convert them to the opposite gender.
Those snowflakes have feelings too...also guns and a qualified immunity to act with impunity
@@lilpenguin092 and unions so if any action is taken against them legally their buddies just walk out and they get away with whatever
@@michaels.1964and while good cops stand by and allow this shit to happen then it’s fair to see them all as pigs unfit to be trusted
Officer Rivera must be fired!
“Get out of my crime scene” I pray if anything ever happens to me I don’t end up with a detective like this guy 😬
Every firefighter I have ever known has vehemently expressed disdain for police and their lack of competence in behaving like actual human beings.
Cops are envious that firefighters are actually liked and universally respected by the public.
Heroe complex!!
The firefighters near me are Dicks, they drive sports cars and act like they own the road
It's a universal truth that the difference between cops and firefighters, is they would both rather be firefighters, but only one of them is.
Nobody ever wrote a hit song called "F the Fire Department."
@@ed01zoIf you think cops have a hero complex, you've never met a firefighter. 😂
Biggest part about cops is they do NOT listen! They jump to conclusions.
That's by design. It's the same reason why all cops are so smug. They have complexes. They know they can get away with this stuff, too.
If you upset the police........in anyway........ They have to hurt you.
You'd think there'd be no fat cops with how often they jump to conclusions
if this firefighter was black he would've been murdered, shot in the back
@J. Hurt he was pissed right from the jump because he had to actually do something other than sitting on his azz swilling coffee and talking crap about all the POS peasants that actually pay him to serve them.......
“are you saying your sargent doesn’t know how to do his job?!” was hilarious
😂😂😂
I felt that firefighter's anger
And once again a cop who violates rights gets bailed out by his qualified immunity. Abolish it now!
If you abolish Qualified Immunity, you will have to abolish it from judges, too. Cops are the extension of judges. That's why it will never go away. Unless the whole country stands against it.
If he has a blue line flag on his uniform or car at the time of his crime this bailout usually gets pushed through faster.
On this issue, the opinion of six people is all that matters. They disagree with you.
how was using an armbar & wrist-clamp that dislocated a witnesses shoulder _NOT_ excessive force???
WE HAVE TO STOP PAYING FOR THEIR DUMBASS MISTAKES!!! Let's start taking PENTIONS away and I assure you they'll will think twice when it comes out of their pockets.
"Hello, sir. This is now a crime scene. Could we move outside the parking lot so you can give your statement?" Seriously, that's all it took.
Especially when he’s giving relevant info to the SGT. The Detective doubling down and saying his SGT didn’t know how to do his job was the icing on the cake.
Ego is a wild thing
Or this: “thank you sir for giving CPR to this person, may we move outside the parking lot to take your statement?”
Who will listen to such BS?????????????????? Not me!!!!!
@@hubriswonk More people then you think, as you don’t know what mental state any witnesses are in. What the detective did where to dehumanize the witness, escalate the situation towards a person witness something traumatic, and potentially cause the witness to not give any statements. I have been in lecture for psychological first aid, and you simply cannot dehumanize someone who is in distress
Everyone who’s done CPR knows how tiring it is and how one person can’t continue to do it effectively for more than a couple minutes. It stops being life-saving. So the fact that the other cops just left the one person to keep doing CPR on his own while they questioned the bystander is disgusting.
💯
We had someone collapse and need CPR at my old job, it's stressful *watching* let alone performing it.
I was a career firefighter. Two problems exist here: 1) Heightened stress due to a severe traumatic incident occurring. 2) Accidental but potentially serious interference with a major crime scene.
Now I’ve had LEO’s trample through my Arson Investigation scene ruining evidence even though they were trying to help. I wanted to yell at them……BUT……when anyone (in this case the OIC of the crime scene) begins to ADD stress to a situation where everyone is on the same team simply trying to help….stuff goes sideways.
The detective should have kept his mouth shut, pulled an initially responding cop on scene to the side and then asked “what” occurred and why a civilian is in the middle of the crime scene….period.
In turn the firefighter should have tried his best to maintain his composure and calmly responded or totally ignore the detective and only spoken to the officer that was interviewing him.
But the key here is that the retired FF is a civilian…and the expectation is for the police detective to maintain a professional demeanor not only out of courtesy but also based on his department’s policy & procedures. Detective deserves an F. The firefighter deserves an A simply for trying to do the right thing.
weird how you were sticking up for the cops in your comment, but give the firefighter a A still.
As a nurse, I will also say that administering CPR is a traumatizing event for the person giving it. Adrenaline runs high! This detective just escalated things for no reason.
I absolutely agree. I’m a lifeguard and I can say that cpr is absolutely terrifying, and I’m so glad that I only had to do it once (so far)
I'm not a lifeguard or a nurse just a regular kid lol, but I had to give cpr to my brother who had sadly already passed
@@aka_eliI'm so sorry for your loss, that's awful.
Very good comment. I don’t understand why cops don’t try to deescalate a situation.
That was part of the comment I just left: the man who was literally just saving another man's life has an excuse to be amped up and have his adrenaline pumping. That cop who JUST showed up at the scene has NO excuse. He was a complete asshole and walked _away_ from the victim to satisfy his ego. Absolutely ridiculous.
I hate how cops always tell you to “relax” while they create the most tense environment possible
Fact: Nobody has ever relaxed when someone screams RELAX!!! at them
Always
you are right. “Relax” and “Calm down” are wasted words after someone is part of something traumatic. I always hated that when officers would say that to people
It's very condescending.
Or a bunch of cops will hold you on the ground while screaming, "STOP RESISTING !!" When it is physically impossible for you to resist.
That ex firefighter did more than all those cops put together
No one ever says "f**k da fire department", I wonder why.
End qualified immunity. Period. This is happening far too often.
YES
tell it to your rep
No, it has an important purpose. but it's been expanded way too far and it is applied to things it shouldn't be. notice the judge threw it under the umbrella of qualified of immunity - it wasn't there originally.
Wow. Qualified immune. And wow a B
@@unclebounce1495 Qualified Immunity is retarded, I understand the logic behind it but it's just wrong. Hospital workers aren't granted qualified immunity, firefighters aren't, what about Garbage collectors? Would it not be reasonable to extend that to Garbage Collectors, they are more than 50x more likely to be killed by a civilian than an officer so is it not reasonable to extend the whole "cops have a reason to react harsher because they have a dangerous job" to a Garbage Collector who shoots a man dead after seeing him reach into his pocket and shouting at him? Because Immunity protects that for officers. No all people should be held to the same civil and criminal standards as anyone else. Anything other than that and you risk abuse of that Immunity which is what modern day policing is.
bro a beast. disclocated shoulder and didnt even flinch. still stood his ground and was respectfull towards those that were respectful to him even in a heated situation. that shows control and diplomacy
He wasnt very diplomatic he went from 0 to 100 extremely quickly
Yeah, that's because he was trying to save a life and detective hog decided to escalate. You like being pushed around or what?@@joedwyer3297
@@joedwyer3297 Det. Rivera only reaped what he himself sowed.
Amen
This is a good example of why I became a firefighter and a paramedic. It was not in my nature to want to use force against others. The longer I served, the less respect I had for police. I doubt half the police could certify in the training necessary to being a firefighter paramedic. Most police officers were bully types that got off on using force and authority on other people simply because they could. I got my satisfaction on seeing the difference I made in people's lives.
Thank you for helping folks! Y’all are heroes!
I’ve been realizing exactly what you just said… good guys that want help go into EMS or fire, bullies that want to flex go into LE. I’m sure it’s a generalization and not always true, it seems to be mostly true and it seems to become more true every year.
Cops in my county just voted AGAINST bodycams… again….
I’m not sure why they’re the ones that get to vote on it, im going to have to start going to council meetings I guess… these same cops approached me a total of 28 times in 18 months of playing Pokémon on my phone a few years back… kicked me off public sidewalks, public university campus which my wife is alumni and my personal fav was looking up to see a black and white suv with lights flashing, no siren tho, as it dipped off road and drove thru 2 different soccer practice fields that were in use by kids, in front of literally hundreds of parents and kids… I knew he was headed straight towards me… he claimed they received calls of “a homeless man wondering the fields”, “a crazy man talking to trees” and “ a man hiding in the bushes looking at kids”…
Thankfully other parents came over and defended me, I was just stretching and walking around, when I asked him to repeat what the he accused me of he was too embarrassed to even try and said “we had multiple calls about you!” As he was backing away and trying to get in his suv to bug out.
I was so embarrassed, my daughter was 8 and she couldn’t stop laughing when I filled her and the rest of the team/parents in about what had happened, she finally caught her breath and explained to everyone how much they like to mess with me, she thought the “crazy man talking to trees” part was just too funny to her. She’s been witness to like 10 of their attempts to bully me and knows I’ve not been arrested once out of all that mess… now she has no respect for them and I worry she’s drawing the attention of the school resource officers, there’s 5 at her school… 5 cops at a middle school all day everyday…wtf…
I’m rambling.
Peace
Well said 👏
Fire Fighters actually help people. They're heroes. Cops want the accolades, but don't want to help anyone.
Nailed it!
Yep!
That is not in all cases. Some are just dirty as pigs
Not all firefighters are good, not all cops are bad. What you’re doing there is called a false dichotomy.
@@brkbtjunkie no….. all cops are bad
Former Police Officer, current Firefighter Paramedic here. Detective Rivera is the type of scum we do not need in public safety! What a terrible, misanthrope with ZERO concept of how to approach a scene and investigate what's going on prior to making decisions. It's mind boggling how we just can't seem to get rid of these kind of people from public safety. It's so frustrating for both citizens and good officers alike to have to deal with the consequences of this type of garbage behavior.
He probably had too many negative interactions with the public so they promoted him to detective to "solve" that problem.
"Pournelle's iron law of bureaucracy:
In any bureaucracy, the people devoted to the benefit of the bureaucracy itself always get in control and those dedicated to the goals that the bureaucracy is supposed to accomplish have less and less influence, and sometimes are eliminated entirely."

He looks like he graduated from bullying kids at high school.
@@elvishards8161 it has nothing to do with that and everything to do with the white supremacist organization he belongs to

Heartbroken for Mr. Garces. No good deed goes unpunished.
As a firefighter, I think this guy is the real deal. I bet he was a damn good fireman.
Same!
Dude his arm got dislocated and the most he said was “hey don’t leave me alone I have mental problems” until later my dude could’ve fucked that detective up if he wanted
Facts bro
I was more pushed up after giving cpr BEFORE my PTSD. I became a tyrannical monster if someone fucked up during that. I reduced a charge nurse to nothing because she took the succion apperatus from the crash cart. Nothing that I am proud of.
I learned a lot of lessons due to my PTSD. Mistakes can be made and are something that I can use as a productive teaching lesson.
But we are not talking about mistakes here. We are talking about misconduct and behaviour that makes you unfit for your profession.
Pretty sure I would snap in his situation.
Thankfully I dont live in a counrty where Police officers know less about CPR than our 12 year olds and behave like 9 year olds with guns.
@@mcyeeter9268 yoooo i didn't think of this at the time. That's metal as HELL, I agree I bet that firefighter is a B.A.D.A.S.S.
But what it took to react that way.... I can only imagine the horror.
Cops act like this and then wonder why the public hates them.
I believe our good Samaritan pointed that out. Right before they arrested him.
I know, the fact that someone can still say bleed blue or something like that with the abundance of videos like this is just delusion
They know why we hate them, they just care. They think they are above us
You people make comments like this and wonder why the cops aren't perfect model citizens all the time. You deserve it.
@@13wayz70 "abundance of videos" I could say the same, you must have a echo chamber of a feed.
As someone with cPTSD I recognised that the retired firefighter was in a trauma reaction state before he said he had PTSD. He did well, and it's so sad he had to endure physical damage to his body from the police. I suspect the other layers of damage done to him from this encounter will have been harder to rectify. I hope he is doing well. x
I just got diagnosed this year. At least now I understand the explosive anger in stressful situations haha
This is absolutely an abomination, that judge is 100% corrupt. This guy should be fired immediately and never be able to hold a position of power over anybody ever again. He’ll get his, what comes around goes around.
It’s scary that our government gives a gun and power to mentally unstable officers like this.
The good guys are weeded out of law enforcement before they are even hired. That's what the psych evaluations are for. They want average-to-low IQs and a "certain" personality type. The puppet master class knows exactly what it's doing.
@@CromKiller98 yeah. Makes it ten times worse
Your government let lunatic and dumb, maniac people buy and own shitloeads of guns and other weapons...
It’s smart, because what can you do about it? Nothing… that’s why they’re going to keep doing what they’re doing and all you guys are gonna do is complain about it with nothing happening
Yeah, they can actually be 'too smart' to be a cop.
Title should read "Domestic terrorists harass and kidnap a real hero"
Bingo!
And almost kill the bleeding-out victim on the ground by pulling a first-responding hero off of the case of saving his life and proceed to harass and rough him up -destroying his shoulder in the process through excessive force because he committed "contempt of cop" for pointing out their inherent ineptitude.

Detective is not a problem solver, he’s a problem maker
He was also KIA when responding to call with another officer. He is not making problems anymore, however it's sad to see another life lost. What he deserved was being fired off the force but not what happened.

I don't know where ^he got his information about this detective being killed. I just spent several minutes looking up "Detective Christopher Rivera, Santa Paula PD", but I didn't see any articles about him being killed. Even after I added "killed in line of duty" to my Google search parameters, there was still nothing.
Yes, there wasn't a problem until he got there.
"get out of my crime scene" really tells you all you need to know about this sad human being
The crime scene was already 'contaminated' by the firefighter, who was there helping the victim. So it makes no sense to remove him. Illogical thinking by Rivera
People that use the word "my" when it is indeed not theirs are narcissists
makes the dtective sussed when he said get out of MY crimescene.
It’s like dude watched too much law and order and said “yea I wanna do that too”
The detective was who shot the guy. That's why it's HIS crime scene. He doesn't mind his gang buddies being there, they'd never snitch, it's the regular person who may have communicated with the victim that's got to go.
9:10 that "im not talking to you anymore" kills me
Escalates, leaves the scene to escalate further, gets physical for no reason, badmouths his sergeant, arrests him.
Dude gets to the car and is incredibly clear about his ptsd and the effect it might have on him even though he’s clearly stressed out already

"No wonder why no one gives you guys the benefit of the doubt, and I worked with you for 27 years" this guy is officially a LEGEND in my book
i was a EMT and i can tell you cops are some of the most disgusting people i have ever had to work with.
I don't buy that he's a firefighter, at least not one that wasn't fired. He walked it back with the PTSD excuse. Firefighters are generally respectful and professional with cops. This guy was all adrenaline and belligerence from the get-go. Very unlike any firefighter I know or have met. In fact most departments carefully screen out hot-heads. If he was helping at first; he quickly became as much a part of the problem some of those cops.
@@carlodave9 He was literally calmly and respectfully giving a statement to another officer before the detective came out with verbal fists swinging. What are you talking about?

"Get out of MY crime scene!"
This man doesn't see or care about the man dying in front of him. Just HIS crime scene.
It’s a crime scene but this officer, like the cowards at Uvalde were blinded by controlling the scene (or the illusion of control) versus helping the victims.
I can't watch the rest of the video after 3 minutes in. These people couldn't give a flying fuck for nobody. The CPR person needed relief and medics should have been dispatched. The fucking cops did not care one iota. I was taken to the hospital one time, thank fuck it was the fire team that got to me first.
Police: "Get out of MY crime scene!"(want the guy dead for a case)
EMT and FIRE shows up: "What you say! your crime scene?" (will never back down on the oath in or out!)
Reeks of corruption doesn't it? Bull in the china shop shows up and immediately starts barking orders with no knowledge and the patrol officers (who were doing everything right imo) just obey his command. I mean dude could have been the shooter for all we/he knows, but yea guy dying on the ground is of no interest to him.
It's no wonder why the people in red and yellow aren't big fans of the blue.
WHAT? 3:12 "the first thing a cop should do is to secure persons at the scene." Please note that someone has CALLED the cops, therefore the cops are *NOT* the first people on the scene, therefore they don't know what's going on.
The *FIRST* thing a cop should do is *FIND OUT* what is going on.
This may involve the DIFFICULT job of asking questions and then STFU while LISTENING TO PEOPLE who are already there, and who may have IMPORTANT INFORMATION which the cops need to know. A cop should never *REFUSE TO LISTEN* to people.
This is one of the best legal channels on the platform. The best of youtube.
I'm an ICU nurse and have called and preformed and responded to innumerous codes and preformed manual CPR countless times. It is something that puts your adrenaline through the roof for even a trained professional, especially after when the immediate crisis his stabilized. It is mandatory that we leave the floor for at minimum 15 minutes before we return to treat patients due to being in a cortisol dump. The firefighter responded much better than I would have being confronted so aggressively after just being in a life and death situation. Instead of having the situational awareness to realize a fellow first responder in this situation this cop let his ego and emotions dictate his actions. Exactly the opposite of what this retired firefighter did. This is the difference in being a professional and being a clock puncher. Hopefully this "hero" cop learned a valuable lesson as the next time it may result in serious bodily n harm to himself, a victim or another first responder.
I cannot believe what an arrogant violent person this detective is. He needs to be fired.
Will get promoted
@@peoplenewstodayprobably
he needs to be arrested for assault
Yeah I'm guess worse
Qualified immunity must be abolished!
Imagine having to tell a judge you arrested a firefighter for saving someone life.
Most judges don't care if a cop commits a crime. That only matters if it's a lil peasant like us.
Bruh
Clearly this Judge doesn't care and is corrupted.
The judge was fully on the cops side. They laughed about it i bet.
@Samir Dončić I am a retired police officer and can say he was not posing a threat to those officers. He was loud and cussing, but in no way was he a threat. He didn't make any threatening statements, gestures, movements, or anything. This was contempt of cop and a false detention/arrest all day long. That guy will likely be getting a nice settlement from his lawsuit.
Escalating a verbal argument and turning it into a physical altercation is what cops do best. Big guns, tiny minds.
And even tinier testicles...
Donut Operator proves that statement
100%
Yes tiny minds that are broke....don't work.
@@austinb3560 donut is a pos
When the cop yells "get out of my crime scene" while the man was goving his statement about what happened, and how he was trying to save a life. Why didnt the interviewing officers, step in and say, hes got it and hes getting his statement. He literally needed to be there.
This discourages citizens from helping others.
Once again, proving that contempt of cop is the most serious crime in the U.S.
Contempt of cop isnt a crime, but a logical and visceral response to crime committed.
@@mikedickison244LOL, I hope this was satire 😂😂
In the world not only America dude!
I swear they turn away from a murder being actively committed if they heard someone slight them nearby. Like the firefighter said do you damn job.
@@MK-xg4qg Please do not project US issues onto the rest of the world. That simply is not true. Police force is MUCH better educated in most, if not all other first world nations.

Can you imagine laying in a pool of your own blood, dying while you hear a detective yelling at someone to get off the parking lot instead of coming to help you. What a sad world we live in
To me, it would sound like someone who is trying to be an accessory to my attempted murder
The victim should just be happy that the detective didn't eat him.

The detective has a BIG EGO problem and he needs to be fired.
That'll never happen. He could've shot the firefighter in the face and he would've gotten off.
Hea already been promoted.
He’s severely overweight, has a massive temper, and lives in CA…he won’t last too much longer. Those 3 factors are a bad combination.
Better still a gun gets fired at him.
This cop was literally overdosing on power. The rage, pride and adrenaline acted just like a drug and he flipped out.
Don't forget the immense swelling of the head once he received the "badge"
A pure example of someone not fit to be a police officer
If only they could actually OD on that. All the shitty cops would take care of themselves...
The disgusting part is that you know brass has seen this video and let him keep his job. That’s the real tragedy here.
@@jasonblaschka6216 tyrants love thugs protecting them
How does an officer receive qualified immunity for using force against a citizen who isn't being arrested? If a police officer walks up and shoots a random civilian, can they not be charged with murder because of qualified immunity? That's such a bad ruling from that Judge. Is it possible to appeal a case that was dismissed to a higher court?
It’s amazingly clear to me after watching a lot of these videos how remaining calm, even in the face of stressful or confrontational situations, makes things so much easier.
Cops screaming "YOU NEED TO RELAX" at the top of their lungs is one of the most dangerous situations you can ever be in.
Yep, it's one step away from "STOP RESISTING" which is often followed by gunfire.
I literally just commented this on a video on Insta, they all scream and yell different instructions and to “calm down” and it hypes everyone up. How have they realized that this doesn’t help yet?
Wtf ever will relax when your getting screamed at to relax?
Those words are usually followed with a "POP" "POP".... fucking thugs!
@@sillyrascal3382or when they are applying severe pain while screaming to “stop resisting “. People would if what you doing to them wasn’t excruciating
This detective was worried about the former firefighters who stopped to help the victim than he was about the victim. Get this detective off the force. He’s a menace to society.
You spelled defective wrong my man
Video is highly misleading. Nobody got “arrested” here, the firefighter got detained for having an explosive outburst with a detective at a crime scene. Firefighter says at 9:25 that he’s struggling with PTSD, so I think that’s why his behavior was pretty aggressive. With that, I think the cop had reasonable cause to detain him due to his aggressive behavior and knowing the victim was lying in a pool of blood on the ground. You have to understand that they’re all unaware of who shot the victim, so even if the firefighter isn’t making any direct threats; his aggressive demeanor got him rightly placed in cuffs for further examination. Cop gets an “F” but the firefighter also gets an “F”. This was two hot heads popping off at each other when both should have been working together to focus on the victim
@@Laughy-Flaaffy shut up boot licker of course you would side with the detective that INITIATED THE AGGRESSIVE BEHAVIOR.
@@Laughy-Flaaffy bro really copy and pasted his comment to multiple people what a loser
@@Laughy-Flaaffy the detective started the aggression by yelling at him while he was giving his statement he wasn’t the one who was aggressive the detective also came and got in his face
Unbelievable. An absolute disgrace! You know he needs to get put in jail if he acted like that to a hero. Just unreal. Yet I’ve seen people and cops act the same way. And I’m still always just blown away
Your work is so valuable. Keep doing what you are doing.
This is exactly why qualified immunity should be abolished. It is ridiculous that cops detain and arrest people based on their feelings getting hurt.
look up senate bill 217
For sure. Apparently the judge didn't watch this video....
Another failure of justice
Nonsense. No one would be a cop then. Same as saying we should abolish the police. Everyone who gets arrested would sue the police. It would be a ridiculous legal nightmare.

Exactly - unfounded hostility. Detective Rivera has no de-escalation skills; quite the contrary. Thank you, Mr. Garsis, for stopping to help the victim and for your 27 years of service! You are much appreciated. Mad props are due.
For people wondering in August of 2023 the city of Santa Paula settled the lawsuit and agreed to pay $325,000 to Garces. Detective Rivera left the Santa Paula Police Department in June of 2023 and is now an officer with the Baldwin Park Police Department.
This detective should have been fired immediately. No one this unhinged should be entrusted with law enforcement duties.

@@Slavir_Nabru Qualified immunity was a determination from the SCOTUS and they have no real power beyond their words, they have no enforcement power. Congress just hasn't declared qualified immunity illegal is all and they won't because they like it because it serves their interest.

This is a perfect example of why citizens don’t want to help police even if it is the right thing to do. It’s more trouble than it’s worth.
This is why having this fucking roided up police officer motif if purely based on high school bullies wanted to be swole-alphas. Just a bunch of man-children with too much time to work out. Any time you see a cop with this bodytape make sure you have a weapon on you and don't hesitate to use it to protect yourself. They work out like this so they can use it, and they will if they can get to you.

I was just about to comment if you’d post these by state and then I looked at the playlists. Awesome 😎
I’m a retired cop and the detective is the only one who is escalating the situation. Detective Rivera is an embarrassment to law enforcement. He should lose his job and be potentially charged with an unlawful seizure. I hate watching these videos because most officers I know never acted like this. This detective doesn’t deserve to have the authority given to him by the city. He should be stripped of that authority due to his out of control actions. Shameful behavior by the detective.
The detective apparently wanted to investigate a homicide since he immediately harassed the only person attempting to provide medical care to the victim. This cop should not have a badge or a firearm.
...or his freedom.

You are absolutely right.
My mom's a nurse and she doesn't stop for car crashes anymore for this reason. Twice she's had issues with the cops or EMTs while trying to administer aid as a first response. The minute anyone with government issued authority shows up they treat you like a criminal or an idiot.

There’s no situation cops can’t make worse
Even literally no situation they make worse.
/thread
Oh, I don't know about that, but when it comes to cops like this detective...yeah, you're right. He sure made this one worse.
Every single time!
There’s no situation cops can’t make better. All down to the individual
I love this page because you have like a roster of all these different cops and I hope they see these videos.
I don’t understand how the officer was awarded qualified immunity… I would understand if the retired firefighter was just lingering around after and all over the crime scene; but he was actively being questioned by another officer. The officer was trying to take his statement and ID him… Literally would have been in the wrong had he “left the crime scene”… Then the other officer comes up being aggressive and demanding he leave because he was contaminating the crime scene… Then he proceeds to physically assault him and dislocated his shoulder… That is well outside the realm of what qualified immunity can cover. He used excessive force against someone who was compliant and not resisting. There should have been NO force used… absolutely ridiculous.
Yet another reason to End Qualified Immunity. That cop should be held accountable.
What bothers me is that if a citizen goes to jail the court moves rather swiftly but try to send a cop to jail it takes YEARS
I dunno about that. Anyone who can post bail will be right out from jail, and it takes years for the trial process before any individual is imprisoned. And that's prison, not jail, that I believe you mean. Because after an initial arrest and bail hearing, just getting an indictment or conviction can be several appointments in the court, each a different step in the process, and each having several months between steps.
@@bolt8148 I think it depends on where you live, and no not everyone can just post bail. Even if you have one, you either have to have the means, or family that would be willing to put it up for you. Other than that, you're screwed. Where I live, these crooked ass politicians always look out for each other. We have several cases of ex detectives and officers getting charged with evidence tampering, and get off with slaps on the wrist. We even have a case where a detective was selling the weed that was confiscated from criminals, but was only given a sentence of probation. Shoot now and question later situations by cops are almost always justifiable homicide, so yeah, the cops are in a club that the public is not in. And at the end of the day, they look out for each other rather than the public; even though it's the publics taxes that pay their salaries.
Nah, they'll drag ass to get you a court date THEN they'll swiftly prosecute as to not actually waste their own time in the courtroom. They even make you pay court fees whereas they won't pay you a dime when you're found innocent of a crime after being kept in jail for as long as months or even years (yes the legal system is a joke).
Did you watch the video? The guy that did the shooting still has charges pending 2 years later, might take a few more years until setencing. Legal system is just slow as fuck, no favoritism there.
Faster to make compost of them and the great thing about usa open records requests you can get all their names

It should be the complete opposite. Should be held to a way more strict standard. They aren’t though.
If you handcuff a guy and lock him in the back of a police car, you have arrested him. I don't see how anyone could justify calling it anything else.
He was never even told one way or the other until he was already in the car. He was assaulted from the start and then as usual they tried to run interference and build a narrative after the fact. Basically every cop on scene was involved in a direct civil rights violation, and under title 18 U.S. code 241-242 it could be construed as conspiring/gang activity considering the amount of cops on scene and how none of them made attempt to end the violations, which by default makes them complicit.
