Always remember and never forget, the police are legally allowed to lie to you. Let me clarify something...In the midst of an officers investigation,whether it's a murder investigation,or if you're pulled over for a traffic violation...that makes it to court before a judge... "yes your honor,but he lied about that in his investigation when questioning me." Judge - "that may be true,but he's allowed to lie to you in an investigatory capacity...so I can't help you there." That's what I mean,when I say they can "legally" lie to you. You can't use it as a defense against a police officer. Now if he lies to the court,that's where their lying is not legal or allowed.

Not at all. You need to know and stand up for the Legal/Lawful Definition of; Inalienable/Unalienable and what constitutes a Human Right. As long as you're willing to challenge these members of their Cult of Authority on such matters then they are obligated/bound to respect them or become Criminal by their own same set of Rules. Coercion is a Crime no matter whom is committing it. I'm looking at you Police Officers...
These officers didn't "misunderstand" or "misinterpret" the 4th amendment. They knew full well what they were doing. They've just been trained that lying and pressuring citizens usually gets their compliance. This isn't an ignorance problem, it's a maliciousness problem.
If you think about what arrest entails, threatening components of it outside legal backing (assault, battery, kidnapping, etc) is actually illegal. I'm unaware of the legal theory of such threats being tested in the case of police, my guess is no court would allow it, but I do hold that this makes such a threat actually illegal.
Even he looks away from a suspicious vehicle! He could have been killed. Did they call the plate number in for wants or warrants? Did they genetic mark the car? If they don't they are not in fear for their life!
Always remember when saying they demonstrated a false understanding, they might know what it truely is. They are absolutely 10000% allowed and encouraged to lie to you.
called the cops to report suspicious people in my neighbors garden and when the cops got there they realized it was just garden gnomes my neighbor placed there, but the sad part was the cops spent 15 minutes trying to I.D. the gnomes in hopes of an arrest
He even asked him WHAT CRIME he's "suspected" of, but of course, the cop had no answer because the caller didn't have an answer. That's why he kept grasping at every straw he could think of and pivoting faster than an ice-skater. 🙄

@@halkreitman7838 Yep... that is common these days... just remember.... God is going to make everyone that has done that to you pay the price. There is a reason Christ said most people will not be saved. Far too many people are okay with what happened to you.
I remember the first time I heard about privately owned, for profit prisons, I was terrified. Once there's an economic motivation to fill these prisons, we, to be blunt, are fucked.
It's different. It's worse. In the Germany of "that certain time", there was a legal justification for identifying people. That's just a statement, not a defense. But there were legal reasons for the police to want to know who (and what) you were, where you lived, if you had the right to be where they met you... With a few exceptions, such reasons do no longer exist in our law. It's true that every German citizen is legally required to _own_ a "Personalausweis" - the state-issued ID. But (again, with a few exceptions), we are not required to show them on request. Or even have them on us. Similar to the U.S. regulations, there are these situations where the police can demand you to identify. When you are suspected of a crime, or are considered a witness to a crime. But mostly, you are not required to "show your papers"... and our police would ask just anyone to do so. That's the difference. U.S. police does that _even when they don't have the legal right to do so_. It's an intimidation tactics... just like in our brown past. _"We know you now. We know where you live. We have an eye on you. Don't do anything we might not like!"_ And it's worse. Because our police back then was legally allowed to do that. Yours is not... and they still do it.
@Groffili Don't need to go to Germany for that. Black Americans needed "walking papers" upon demand all the way until the 1970s. In some areas still do. Doesn't matter if it's unconstitutional when LE has local judges as buddies.
oversimplification. Police do not need to actually see you doing anything illegal to lawfully detain you. All they need is reasonable articulable suspicion that a crime is afoot. They can continue the stop for as long as it takes to extinguish their initial suspicion for the stop, or until they establish probable cause to make an arrest. In this case, the police simply did not have enough reasonable suspicion to justify the stop.
Not if they simply drop the charges before you go to court. At that point, your only form of recourse is by filing an expensive and time-consuming lawsuit.
I think the basic problem is that many citizens think cops have ABSOLUTE AUTHORITY, and therefore, cave-in to every demand made by cops. Thanks to COP WATCH and AMENDMENT AUDITOR channels, citizens are learning that there are guidelines and laws the cops MUST follow. THANK YOU ALL! 👍👍
Well we had auditors like the Black Panthers way back in the 60s but too many didn't want to listen thanks to slanted media. Thank god the people can be their own media today.
@@aurelijus1I hate to say this but your country is definitely free when your biggest problem is police not having a 100% understanding of the law.. Wait until you see an actual country that’s not free, where the law doesn’t even matter in some cases, and you are killed or imprisoned for saying something about the leader. America is one of the most free countries on our planet, and it’s not the best, but you definitely don’t understand the conditions anywhere else if you think America isn’t free or is bad
As a LEO in Pennsylvania, I have a problem with everything that sergeant is trying to do and some of the lies he’s told to the driver. I hope he filed a complaint for harassment and civil rights violations against him.
I'm glad you feel that way. Step one is always identifying the real problem, especially when you're in the same field. Now the second step is for you to go to that Sergeant and tell him how wrong he was. Be part of the change
Bingo. Cop lies you hear daily: "We got a call", "In this day and age", "Doing this for officer safety", "With all the stuff going on in the news", "Been a lot of recent break ins"....the list of generalizations they substitute for actual evidence of a specific criminal act committed by a specific person, is amazing.
Holy shit... that guy needs to get fired. "You're sitting in a parked car, if you're drunk it's a DUI." "You're sitting in your car, it's suspicious." My god.
Yes, on that basis that, any unknown, unvetted individual can make any claim, and that would be taken as gospel by the police over the word of the person they’re “investigating”!!! It’s just ludicrous!
Having and even invoking the right to remain silent doesn’t necessarily mean you need to self-muzzle and not protest unlawful behavior by the cops. The right exists so as not to self-incriminate. What I’ve seen some say is, “I refuse to answer certain questions.”
“Reasonable suspicion” means they can articulate probable cause (by penal code) on a charging document. The 4th Amendment is very clear on when you are required to show ID “when you are lawfully arrested”. There’s no such thing as “stop & ID”.
C- ? And then you go on to list the sergeants' multiple failures. At least he did not follow through with an arrest. I would score him no higher than a D.
Yep, just because a playground bully doesn't follow through and actually take your lunch money doesn't make him any less a bully for having demanded it.
@@gotherecomNo the argument here is the bully ASKED for the lunch money. Of course physical threats or physically forcing someone to do something are going to be objectively more severe under law.
C- seems particularly generous. That implies that the officer was at least partially right, which he absolutely wasn't. He was entirely wrong in every way. The only thing he didn't do was act on his wrong assertions or outright lies.
I think if the officer arrested the man, ATA would have given him an F. But since he officer did not, he gave him the C-. That's kinda been ATA's MO on these things.
Personally, I think the moment a cop lies, they should get an F. But I get it. If lying is an F, then what do you give to a cop who assaults someone? ATA should probably change to a 1 to 10 system, where10 is a cop performed well, friendly and within the law. And a 1 where a cops just fails miserably, being aggressive and breaking every law possible.
if you give them all an F, it takes away the significance of when the officers go completely bat shit crazy and beat/arrest the individual. So the C- makes sense if you consider that
Another thing to keep in mind as well, is the fact that a good portion of police are horribly trained. Unless they take it upon one's self to further their education they behave the way they were trained.
These videos are amazingly revealing. The cop's lecture about "our city, our streets" reveals a lot about their mentality. Thank God for the ubiquity of cameras.
There would already be an incident number if somebody actually "called in a suspicious vehicle," because that would be a call for service. An incident number is automatically generated into the CAD when Dispatch sent the cop to the location. So OBVIOUSLY the cop is lying. There will never be an incident number because the cop will never generate one because if there was ever a complaint, or legal action taken the cop will say it was consensual, even though it wasn't.
We can be 99% sure that the city is using a databae using a database to track their 911 calls and a unique record number would be generated for every single call. That record is probably merged with the report that the officer will file and that record number may stay the same, or a different record or incident number might be generated when the call "clears" as they said. Thay first record number does exist but it's probably not released to the public until later.
No moron, this is not how "incident numbers" happen. The CAD number IS NOT an incident number and that is not and has never been information police are required to inform you of when investigating you. If they issue a citation that citation will have the relevant numbers on it.@@thenatural1759
What is incredible is that a random person can call in anything, not be held accountable, and the police will treat it as absolute fact. So many times on this channel is that apparent. Police should be verifying the validity of the call with the evidence presented when they arrive, until then calls should always be treated as ANECDOTAL evidence and not as ABSOLUTE fact that seems to happen.
Not going to happen. The public has been taught”See something, say something.” This is why people need to know their rights and shut up. If a cop has enough to arrest you, they will. If they don’t, you can inadvertently give them something they need to arrest you.
It's an absolute fact that hypothetically someone somewhere at some time called in and said "something". What they SAID may be anecdotal but that they called and SAID anything at all is "absolute fact". It's the thought process of being wilfully ignorant that this could (and does get) abused. "There was a call." The content of the call is entirely incidental to the fact that a call was made in the first place. Because no one would ever make a call for a bad or frivolous reason. The details are window dressing for a post facto justification. Ergo "we got a call about (×)" is not actually about (×) but that "we got a call".
@@andrewvelonis5940what is CRIMINAL about what you said? What do cops have authority over? Crime? Sounds like an investigation outside their scope of authority to me.

Yes I hate the cop okay that I've heard it thousands of times on here. It varies on exactly what it means but one thing is for sure, it never means okay.
So wait, if an unlicensed teenager decided they wanted to wait in the car and listen to the radio while their parents are shopping or whatever, they could get in trouble if they jump in the driver seat pretending to drive while they are waiting? Cuz I used to do that..
Absolutely. I had exactly that happen to me. I was EIGHT years old, hopped into the front seat to fiddle with the radio and a police officer approached the window. He was kind to me and asked if I had a driver's license then explained that because I was 'operating a motor vehicle' I was required to wear a seatbelt etc. The car was not running, just the radio- but the key WAS in the ignition as the officer pointed out. Again, I was a child and this interaction was meant to create awareness. I did not get into any trouble and (I think) the officer left before my family returned to the car. No threats, no arrests, no problem. But this was in 🇨🇦 in the 90's. I was raised to be polite and respectful to those in uniform.
Yep. And if you leave the bar, get to the parking lot, and decide you're too drunk to go home so you sleep it off in your car, you can be arrested for dui.
@@sarahtar what if someone decided sleep it off and they are the only person in the car but they are in the passenger seat, with the engine running, could they still get in trouble?
@@jestinnawelch35 It depends on which state they're living in. Some will bust you if your keys are anywhere in the vehicle. I saw a case about fifteen years ago where, this dude was drunk, he refused the request of his friend to drive him home because he didn't want to leave his car overnight. His friend let him stay in the car, but took his keys, and told him he'd be back in the morning to return the keys. The guy was crashed out in the drivers seat when a cop busted him for DUI. Cops couldn't find his keys, the guy couldn't remember his keys were taken by his friend. Since he didn't remember his keys were confiscated by his friend, the cop argued that his intent was to drive drunk, and busted him for that. He beat the case in court, and the judge admonished the police for having the audacity to jail a guy on intent, when there was no such legislation. He should have never mentioned that he didn't know where his keys were, because that opened the door for the cop to argue, that he could have easily thought they were there in the car. That's why you limit conversation with them. They're always looking for an angle to pad their numbers.
I've watched plenty of audit channel videos but your channel is the best in my opinion. I appreciate the time you take to look up and reference the law. Kudos!
This officer is a tyrant and needs to be fired for his bully behavior. He doesn’t know the law that we have the 4th Amendment right to be secure in our papers and effects, or homes and our person from unreasonable searches and seizures. Seizing someone’s ID unreasonably is the same as demanding it absent of a crime. Just because a cop was called and their policy teaches these idiots to demand I’d. Their policies aren’t law. It’s a policy that they made up to violate your rights.
ESPECIALLY about the law. You can't expect people to TRUST police AND allow them to lie. You CAN'T have it both ways. I actually heard an ex-cop in the USA say, "You have to trust law enforcement." I haven't laughed that hard in a while!!!
Ugh right off the bat, they think someone making a “call” can just violate someone’s rights. I wonder if there was even a call and it was just nosy bored cops?
No they got a call shouldn't be grounds for the police to do squat if when they show up there's no other indications of any legal violations\crimes present. Look how often not only do ppl call whine one one for feelings enforcement. But also look at how often what gets dispatched to the officers enroute. Wasn't what the caller actually said and reported at all. Instead it's what that dispatchers own mind filled the gaps in the callers irrational (because it's feelings driven) story with.
Reasonable suspicion has to be specific: evidence that would lead a reasonable person to believe a crime is being or is about to be committed. Not just generalized suspicion which amounts to "I don't know what you're doing."
Cops are held to a much lower standard by the courts? Lmao. What an ignorant thing to say. Prosecutors, lawyers and judges hold their police to an extremely high standard or else any evidence they collect would be suppressed by the exclusionary rule @@timb7775
I think Gilmore 100% knew he was wrong, otherwise he would have taken mr LAC to jail. He also stepped very carefully in his speech and never completely threatened arrest if the ID wasn't given. Seems pretty clear he knew exactly where the line was and how to not cross it.
Right, which is why he gets a C. He at least knows not to cross that line. It that a good thing? No, that is a net-neutral thing. But were this some other officer we have seen on this channel, he may not have hesitated to cross that line as soon as he pulled up. The grading scale is relevant to other police actions and how the interaction could have gone, not how the viewer personally feels about the officer's (or citizen's) conduct.
I give the Sargent an F. I do NOT believe he does not know there is no stop and identify statute in the state because he did not arrest him. And based on his attitude it WAS the fact he was a black man (appearance) meant he thought he could make those demands. Racism is not saying a person is black or the N-word, it is treating people differently or having expectations of others not based on actual individualized information. This is a minor example of what black people mean when they say we can “see” cops being racist all the time.
I invoked my fifth amendment during traffic stop & the officer reported to the court that I was extremely uncooperative & the D.A. Was prepared to handle me as such. My proof on looking into the laws of the reason for the stop proved I was not uncooperative. But the officers like almost made my life hard & expensive.
A supervisor that knows nothing about the law. Absolutely ridiculous. There is no complainant so there is no RAS. This cop is escalating the situation because there is no violation being committed. He doesn’t like anyone telling him no! Now the threat of walking next to a car because of a dog. What? I definitely would not have gotten out of my car.
You do not need to have a "complainant" for reasonable articulable suspicion to exist. In Terry v. Ohio, there was no complainant at all. What constitutes RAS depends on the totality of the circumstances. I am not defending what the cops did here, they did not have RAS, but I find it funny that you complain about people not knowing the law while also spreading misinformation about the law in the same comment.
What crime was the officer investigating? He said there was no crime committed, so what was he investigating? We investigate crimes. We do not investigate people.
12:57 I love that island accent when he says "your tyrants, threatening me!" Guy knows his stuff. Glad he wasn't pulled from his car for no ID like we have seen before on ATA.
I'm well aware that cops like this are depressingly common but the amount of people in this comment section making it out like all cops are corrupt and such is disturbing.
It's sad when the cops lie and said they onky asked for ID. Then the body cam and private video shows they say demand and you must and then later lie and say they only asked for id. How can we fix this ?
Even if it could be argued that the stop was consensual, the PA Supreme Court in Comm. v. Cost said that during a police-citizen interaction (“mere encounter”) when officers retain an individual’s ID to check for warrants and ask if there was anything the officer needs to know, it escalates the mere encounter into an investigation detention.
The irony is, as a result of police lying, and being ignorant of the law, they have only made things more difficult on themselves. We need to continue to learn the laws to protect ourselves during police interactions.
Sargent Gilmore got a C+ for F level conduct? Just because he didn't follow through on his threat to arrest for failure to ID, doesn't let him off the hook for displaying the most abject ignorance of the laws he's purporting to enforce. "AtA gets .... an F" for this one.
@@Darkside007 My thinking is there is a line which, when crossed, demonstrates an F level performance. It's like a final exam. If you get 50% wrong, it's an F. If you get 90% wrong, it's still an F.
I could be a 6 foot tall female named Tim Tom Billy jilly with an address from space. None of that information will tell you if my actions in that moment are criminal or not. 🙄
@@muzzledwon1845 Key here is how he says it's ACCEPTED that you just give up your ID whenever police ask. Thankfully this guy knew his rights! Never just give up your ID, it feeds this cop's tyrannical case.
"C-"? This "supervisor" doesn't know basic law, and became argumentative,combative, and threatening when confronted with a citizen asserting their civil rights.
The caller was possibly concerned that this gentleman was driving-while-black. And the officer is just doing the dirty work. The police call center failed to get the information about what was suspicious. The caller has the burden of articulating their suspicions 😅
I have now heard cops demand ID to prove you are legally able to drive. You never have to prove innocence in the US. This officer needs to learn something about the law. He lies so effortlessly. You don't lose your rights by simply sitting in a parked car in America.
That’s the only weird part to me where I can see how cops can demand it. If you’re sitting in public space they can’t demand ID, but being in a car, they could verify that either you’re allowed to be operating it, or at least, how do I know you either own or are allowed to be sitting in it if I can’t tell who you are? 100% for not incriminating oneself, but through the context of, “what if this was a stranger that had just broken into my car and talked his way out of it,” I can understand the cops clarifying it
@@MotoNoir86 I don't know of a law that requires you to prove your innocence before you engage in a specific act. They could have waited for the driver to pull away and then engaged in a pretextual stop and they would probably get away with that unlawful act. But if a LEO approaches me, he cannot demand that ID if I am performing an act that is not criminal. The "hunch" or general possibility that I might not be licensed is not reasonable, articulable suspicion.
This is crazy! I've been watching this channel for a long time and this is the first time my old hometown is featured on this channel. This is a small town. Good work!
Drives me crazy how many times an officer will threaten but never follow through implying they know the threat is empty and they cannot legally follow through because they are in the wrong.
When I see an ATA video where the cops get a good grade, I think 2 things. First, I hope the officers see the video and strive to continue to do the right thing. Second, I love that ATA chose to make a positive video about the cops. It would be so easy to only dunk on the Police exclusively. ATA gets an "A".
I can almost guarantee that the driver did not get a citation because even if they ran his vehicle plate for his name, it wasn’t a car stop for a traffic violation and the driver has video evidence to show that.
When A cop tells me he can arrest me, my answer is the same, I dont want any favors from you. Arrest me or shut the fcuk up. I have been arrested twice with 0 convictions, 4 days in jail, and waiting bail. There have been roughly 12 instances I have been given this warning. I also tell them to quit pissing on my boots while you tell me its raining. LIAR.
The ego sergeant is clearly undeniable maliciously and intentionally harassing the citizen without any RAS. This sergeant has absolutely no qualifications for any rank.
The Supreme Court has ruled that the police can ask and request your ID. That’s the word play they use. Anyone can ASK anything, and REQUEST anything, just as you can deny the “ Ask and Request “. This dude should have remained silent and ride out the 20 minute detention.
That's the fun part. The law talks both ways out of its mouth while never taking a final solid position either way. If you give them what they ask for, then it was a voluntary consensual encounter and it's your fault for giving them anything. If you don't then you're in violation of the law and guilty of trying to obstruct justice and hinder their investigation. So when you ask whether you HAVE to id, the answer essentially boils down to "yesn't" and "maybe?" and FAFO. If they can only "ask", then I can "voluntarily" say no. Exceot when I "voluntarily" do so, then it's failure to identify. Even if it isn't. Heads they win tails you lose.
@@thegrimharvestalways gotta ask, “if I don’t identify will I be arrested?” And just repeat that question until they say yes. Hand it over then you can sue for unlawful stop anD ID
depends on where you live, my area you have cops that are younger but tempered by good senior leadership that don’t enforce quotas or base them off of performance evaluations.

"I don't consent to any searches, seizures, or questions...so either arrest me for whatever crime you think I have committed or leave me alone."
He even asked him WHAT CRIME he's "suspected" of, but of course, the cop had no answer because the caller didn't have an answer. That's why he kept grasping at every straw he could think of and pivoting faster than an ice-skater. 🙄

Yes, 'the back the blue til it happens to you,' good ole boy cop suckers.
"We ID everyone we come into contact with" sounds a lot like "SHOW ME YOUR PAPERS!"
It's different. It's worse.
In the Germany of "that certain time", there was a legal justification for identifying people. That's just a statement, not a defense. But there were legal reasons for the police to want to know who (and what) you were, where you lived, if you had the right to be where they met you...
With a few exceptions, such reasons do no longer exist in our law. It's true that every German citizen is legally required to _own_ a "Personalausweis" - the state-issued ID. But (again, with a few exceptions), we are not required to show them on request. Or even have them on us.
Similar to the U.S. regulations, there are these situations where the police can demand you to identify. When you are suspected of a crime, or are considered a witness to a crime.
But mostly, you are not required to "show your papers"... and our police would ask just anyone to do so.
That's the difference. U.S. police does that _even when they don't have the legal right to do so_. It's an intimidation tactics... just like in our brown past. _"We know you now. We know where you live. We have an eye on you. Don't do anything we might not like!"_
And it's worse. Because our police back then was legally allowed to do that. Yours is not... and they still do it.
My mind is blown reading someone saying any police policy in America is worse than what nazi Germany did. Unreal
@@Groffili sad , but true .
@Groffili Don't need to go to Germany for that. Black Americans needed "walking papers" upon demand all the way until the 1970s. In some areas still do. Doesn't matter if it's unconstitutional when LE has local judges as buddies.
If you did nothing wrong, you got nothing to fear. All I read in the comments are whiny Karens who are definitely hiding sonmething.
The lying cop gets an F for falsifying reasons to ask for identification.
He’s operating a vehicle he has to provide it
“We didn’t say you were doing anything illegal.”
Exactly. Which is a violation of my rights.
oversimplification. Police do not need to actually see you doing anything illegal to lawfully detain you. All they need is reasonable articulable suspicion that a crime is afoot. They can continue the stop for as long as it takes to extinguish their initial suspicion for the stop, or until they establish probable cause to make an arrest. In this case, the police simply did not have enough reasonable suspicion to justify the stop.

@@cindland "Well then just prove your innocence! If you have nothing to hide you have nothing to fear!"
It always infuriates me when someone who KNOWS they have to right to remain silent keeps talking to the cops
Exactly
Having and even invoking the right to remain silent doesn’t necessarily mean you need to self-muzzle and not protest unlawful behavior by the cops. The right exists so as not to self-incriminate. What I’ve seen some say is, “I refuse to answer certain questions.”
You still should talk to cops if you haven't done anything wrong. You shouldn't answer questions.
Right to remain silent means I DON'T ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS!
Seriously.
“Reasonable suspicion” means they can articulate probable cause (by penal code) on a charging document. The 4th Amendment is very clear on when you are required to show ID “when you are lawfully arrested”. There’s no such thing as “stop & ID”.
C- ? And then you go on to list the sergeants' multiple failures. At least he did not follow through with an arrest. I would score him no higher than a D.
Yep, just because a playground bully doesn't follow through and actually take your lunch money doesn't make him any less a bully for having demanded it.
its the minimum standard apparently
I’m still waiting for ATA to implement a sorely-needed “F-minus” grade
@brad30three yes. I have often asked, "What's lower than an F ?"
@@gotherecomNo the argument here is the bully ASKED for the lunch money. Of course physical threats or physically forcing someone to do something are going to be objectively more severe under law.
C- seems particularly generous. That implies that the officer was at least partially right, which he absolutely wasn't. He was entirely wrong in every way. The only thing he didn't do was act on his wrong assertions or outright lies.
Their ratings suck a lot lately
I think if the officer arrested the man, ATA would have given him an F. But since he officer did not, he gave him the C-. That's kinda been ATA's MO on these things.
Personally, I think the moment a cop lies, they should get an F. But I get it. If lying is an F, then what do you give to a cop who assaults someone? ATA should probably change to a 1 to 10 system, where10 is a cop performed well, friendly and within the law. And a 1 where a cops just fails miserably, being aggressive and breaking every law possible.
if you give them all an F, it takes away the significance of when the officers go completely bat shit crazy and beat/arrest the individual.
So the C- makes sense if you consider that
Another thing to keep in mind as well, is the fact that a good portion of police are horribly trained. Unless they take it upon one's self to further their education they behave the way they were trained.
It's that power trip they are on. Cops keep doing this because there has been little to no reprocussion. He should be suspended .
Dispatch NEEDS to ask callers what the 'suspect'is doing or has done. If nothing, the tell the caller what's going on is NOT ILLEGAL.
Most cops don't even know the law. What makes you think any dispatchers do?
Dispatchers have no right to do that.
There may not have been a call. The cop. Could have lied as an excuse for approaching the car.
These videos are amazingly revealing. The cop's lecture about "our city, our streets" reveals a lot about their mentality. Thank God for the ubiquity of cameras.
Yes as if to say they know the man isn’t even from the area. The audacity feels criminal in and of itself.
The Right Of People To Be Secure In their Person's, Houses, PAPERS, and Effects, Against Unreasonable Searches and Seizures Shall Not Be Violated
Blatant F!!!! They should have moved on once there was zero reasonable suspicion.
Every cop on ATA can’t get an F. It takes away the mystery of the grade.
Agreed! Sic Semper Evello Mortem Tyrannis!
Fs are for arrests.
Don't forget he also issue threats of violence towards the citizen which is a crime
There would already be an incident number if somebody actually "called in a suspicious vehicle," because that would be a call for service. An incident number is automatically generated into the CAD when Dispatch sent the cop to the location. So OBVIOUSLY the cop is lying. There will never be an incident number because the cop will never generate one because if there was ever a complaint, or legal action taken the cop will say it was consensual, even though it wasn't.
This is not how it happens
@adamgrove9198 this is not how it's supposed to happen. There, I fixed it.
We can be 99% sure that the city is using a databae using a database to track their 911 calls and a unique record number would be generated for every single call. That record is probably merged with the report that the officer will file and that record number may stay the same, or a different record or incident number might be generated when the call "clears" as they said. Thay first record number does exist but it's probably not released to the public until later.
@@spasticnapjerk also when people call the non-emergency dispatch number.
No moron, this is not how "incident numbers" happen. The CAD number IS NOT an incident number and that is not and has never been information police are required to inform you of when investigating you. If they issue a citation that citation will have the relevant numbers on it.@@thenatural1759
Should be an F- at this point. He was lying on purpose and should be taken off the police force forever and serve jail time.
What is incredible is that a random person can call in anything, not be held accountable, and the police will treat it as absolute fact. So many times on this channel is that apparent. Police should be verifying the validity of the call with the evidence presented when they arrive, until then calls should always be treated as ANECDOTAL evidence and not as ABSOLUTE fact that seems to happen.
Not going to happen. The public has been taught”See something, say something.” This is why people need to know their rights and shut up. If a cop has enough to arrest you, they will. If they don’t, you can inadvertently give them something they need to arrest you.
It's an absolute fact that hypothetically someone somewhere at some time called in and said "something".
What they SAID may be anecdotal but that they called and SAID anything at all is "absolute fact".
It's the thought process of being wilfully ignorant that this could (and does get) abused.
"There was a call."
The content of the call is entirely incidental to the fact that a call was made in the first place. Because no one would ever make a call for a bad or frivolous reason. The details are window dressing for a post facto justification.
Ergo "we got a call about (×)" is not actually about (×) but that "we got a call".
Imagine living in a country where you can’t even sit in a car without people thinking you’re suspicious and cops wanting to arrest you 🤦🏾♂️

So wait, if an unlicensed teenager decided they wanted to wait in the car and listen to the radio while their parents are shopping or whatever, they could get in trouble if they jump in the driver seat pretending to drive while they are waiting? Cuz I used to do that..
Absolutely. I had exactly that happen to me. I was EIGHT years old, hopped into the front seat to fiddle with the radio and a police officer approached the window. He was kind to me and asked if I had a driver's license then explained that because I was 'operating a motor vehicle' I was required to wear a seatbelt etc. The car was not running, just the radio- but the key WAS in the ignition as the officer pointed out. Again, I was a child and this interaction was meant to create awareness. I did not get into any trouble and (I think) the officer left before my family returned to the car. No threats, no arrests, no problem. But this was in 🇨🇦 in the 90's. I was raised to be polite and respectful to those in uniform.

It depends on which state they're living in.
Some will bust you if your keys are anywhere in the vehicle.
I saw a case about fifteen years ago where, this dude was drunk, he refused the request of his friend to drive him home because he didn't want to leave his car overnight.
His friend let him stay in the car, but took his keys, and told him he'd be back in the morning to return the keys.
The guy was crashed out in the drivers seat when a cop busted him for DUI. Cops couldn't find his keys, the guy couldn't remember his keys were taken by his friend.
Since he didn't remember his keys were confiscated by his friend, the cop argued that his intent was to drive drunk, and busted him for that.
He beat the case in court, and the judge admonished the police for having the audacity to jail a guy on intent, when there was no such legislation.
He should have never mentioned that he didn't know where his keys were, because that opened the door for the cop to argue, that he could have easily thought they were there in the car. That's why you limit conversation with them. They're always looking for an angle to pad their numbers.
You’re being generous giving the Sargent a C-. He totally failed.
I've watched plenty of audit channel videos but your channel is the best in my opinion. I appreciate the time you take to look up and reference the law. Kudos!
This officer is a tyrant and needs to be fired for his bully behavior. He doesn’t know the law that we have the 4th Amendment right to be secure in our papers and effects, or homes and our person from unreasonable searches and seizures. Seizing someone’s ID unreasonably is the same as demanding it absent of a crime. Just because a cop was called and their policy teaches these idiots to demand I’d. Their policies aren’t law. It’s a policy that they made up to violate your rights.
When the officer finds himself deep in a hole, he should stop digging
Lying should be illegal for cops.

No they got a call shouldn't be grounds for the police to do squat if when they show up there's no other indications of any legal violations\crimes present. Look how often not only do ppl call whine one one for feelings enforcement. But also look at how often what gets dispatched to the officers enroute. Wasn't what the caller actually said and reported at all. Instead it's what that dispatchers own mind filled the gaps in the callers irrational (because it's feelings driven) story with.
The cops lie with every word they mutter. It's impossible to know if there was ever a call
Reasonable suspicion has to be specific: evidence that would lead a reasonable person to believe a crime is being or is about to be committed. Not just generalized suspicion which amounts to "I don't know what you're doing."

I think Gilmore 100% knew he was wrong, otherwise he would have taken mr LAC to jail. He also stepped very carefully in his speech and never completely threatened arrest if the ID wasn't given. Seems pretty clear he knew exactly where the line was and how to not cross it.
Right, which is why he gets a C. He at least knows not to cross that line. It that a good thing? No, that is a net-neutral thing. But were this some other officer we have seen on this channel, he may not have hesitated to cross that line as soon as he pulled up. The grading scale is relevant to other police actions and how the interaction could have gone, not how the viewer personally feels about the officer's (or citizen's) conduct.
I give the Sargent an F. I do NOT believe he does not know there is no stop and identify statute in the state because he did not arrest him. And based on his attitude it WAS the fact he was a black man (appearance) meant he thought he could make those demands. Racism is not saying a person is black or the N-word, it is treating people differently or having expectations of others not based on actual individualized information. This is a minor example of what black people mean when they say we can “see” cops being racist all the time.
I invoked my fifth amendment during traffic stop & the officer reported to the court that I was extremely uncooperative & the D.A. Was prepared to handle me as such. My proof on looking into the laws of the reason for the stop proved I was not uncooperative. But the officers like almost made my life hard & expensive.

You do not need to have a "complainant" for reasonable articulable suspicion to exist. In Terry v. Ohio, there was no complainant at all. What constitutes RAS depends on the totality of the circumstances. I am not defending what the cops did here, they did not have RAS, but I find it funny that you complain about people not knowing the law while also spreading misinformation about the law in the same comment.
What crime was the officer investigating? He said there was no crime committed, so what was he investigating?
We investigate crimes. We do not investigate people.

@@jmmahony oh for sure that is definitely the Unterschnitt style...
Even if it could be argued that the stop was consensual, the PA Supreme Court in Comm. v. Cost said that during a police-citizen interaction (“mere encounter”) when officers retain an individual’s ID to check for warrants and ask if there was anything the officer needs to know, it escalates the mere encounter into an investigation detention.

you'd have to provide a valid driver's licence, no?

The caller was possibly concerned that this gentleman was driving-while-black. And the officer is just doing the dirty work. The police call center failed to get the information about what was suspicious. The caller has the burden of articulating their suspicions 😅
I have now heard cops demand ID to prove you are legally able to drive. You never have to prove innocence in the US. This officer needs to learn something about the law. He lies so effortlessly. You don't lose your rights by simply sitting in a parked car in America.
That’s the only weird part to me where I can see how cops can demand it. If you’re sitting in public space they can’t demand ID, but being in a car, they could verify that either you’re allowed to be operating it, or at least, how do I know you either own or are allowed to be sitting in it if I can’t tell who you are?
100% for not incriminating oneself, but through the context of, “what if this was a stranger that had just broken into my car and talked his way out of it,” I can understand the cops clarifying it
@@MotoNoir86 I don't know of a law that requires you to prove your innocence before you engage in a specific act.

This is crazy! I've been watching this channel for a long time and this is the first time my old hometown is featured on this channel. This is a small town. Good work!
Drives me crazy how many times an officer will threaten but never follow through implying they know the threat is empty and they cannot legally follow through because they are in the wrong.
It’s called a bluff
When I see an ATA video where the cops get a good grade, I think 2 things. First, I hope the officers see the video and strive to continue to do the right thing. Second, I love that ATA chose to make a positive video about the cops. It would be so easy to only dunk on the Police exclusively. ATA gets an "A".
I can almost guarantee that the driver did not get a citation because even if they ran his vehicle plate for his name, it wasn’t a car stop for a traffic violation and the driver has video evidence to show that.
When A cop tells me he can arrest me, my answer is the same, I dont want any favors from you. Arrest me or shut the fcuk up. I have been arrested twice with 0 convictions, 4 days in jail, and waiting bail. There have been roughly 12 instances I have been given this warning. I also tell them to quit pissing on my boots while you tell me its raining. LIAR.
The ego sergeant is clearly undeniable maliciously and intentionally harassing the citizen without any RAS. This sergeant has absolutely no qualifications for any rank.
He is rank.
The Supreme Court has ruled that the police can ask and request your ID. That’s the word play they use. Anyone can ASK anything, and REQUEST anything, just as you can deny the “ Ask and Request “. This dude should have remained silent and ride out the 20 minute detention.
That's the fun part. The law talks both ways out of its mouth while never taking a final solid position either way.
If you give them what they ask for, then it was a voluntary consensual encounter and it's your fault for giving them anything.
If you don't then you're in violation of the law and guilty of trying to obstruct justice and hinder their investigation.
So when you ask whether you HAVE to id, the answer essentially boils down to "yesn't" and "maybe?" and FAFO.
If they can only "ask", then I can "voluntarily" say no. Exceot when I "voluntarily" do so, then it's failure to identify. Even if it isn't.
Heads they win tails you lose.
That’s why you remain silent and let your lawyer do the talking in the courtroom.@@thegrimharvest
@@thegrimharvestalways gotta ask, “if I don’t identify will I be arrested?” And just repeat that question until they say yes. Hand it over then you can sue for unlawful stop anD ID
These clowns been in trouble covering up dui’s for their officers and other local police officers
They get privilege. They will cover up mistakes other police officers have made also
There is nothing new here in the behavior of Pennsylvania township cops.
depends on where you live, my area you have cops that are younger but tempered by good senior leadership that don’t enforce quotas or base them off of performance evaluations.
My question is - Can he be ordered out of the car considering this is not a traffic stop?
If the cop can show his safety was at risk, probably.
