You are cherry-picking. You are generalizing from one example. I saw a white guy commit a crime yesterday. That must mean all white guys are criminals. You are just as smart as the officers involved in this incident.
I have always been a back the blue patriot. I never thought those two things could be in such conflict. The blue is turning brown shirt. Patriotism wins out. I cannot support these police any more.
I see an issue that the police resolved. Once the lady's lawyer gets done with this the lady will be able to afford a maid service to keep the house nice and tidy.
The message this police dept is sending is "don't talk to police, or open the door, unless they are holding a warrant or your lawyer happens to be over for coffee"
Do have your lawyer over if you know you're going to be served a warrant. Having cameras present would be a plus as well as having your IPhone's recorder on as well.
except for the part with taking inventory, that would take time and effort. They would send the bulldozer to her house, the neighbor would get bulldozed and when pointing out the mistake, yet an other house would get bulldozed because "this warent is for the house down the street" is ambigouse.
Here's a good one for you, Steve. Back in the 70s, I was drinking at a bar, The Mad Hatter, in Underground Atlanta, when ready to go home, I ask the bartender to call a taxi for me, which he did. As I was being driven home, a cop pulled the taxi over for a tail light infraction. The cop smells alcohol on me, asks if I've been drinking, to which I replied, I hope so. The cop arrests me for, I kid you not, "Being drunk in a vehicle." In court the next morning when questioned by the judge, as to why I was drinking and driving, I explained that I wasn't, I was a passenger in a taxi. The judge's reaction was priceless, he raised one eyebrow, and said "Excuse me?" After reading the detailed report, the judge instructed a bailiff to have the officer report to his chambers, turned me loose with an apology, and instructed that my employer be called and told exactly why I was late for work.
Omg , About 10 years ago I got pulled over for doing 25 in a 35 And no matter how I try, I just could not explain that 35 was the upper limit not the mandatory speed and I was promptly arrested for arguing with him. the next morning in court the judge had the exact same reaction as your judge did 😂🤣😂 For me, they waived the fees for towing, and Impounding on my truck. The following week I saw that officer driving a paddy wagon, and just snickered.
See, my theory is that there have always been jerk cops because out of 100 plumbers, you are going to find one or two jerks! There will always be some. However NOW A DAYS my theory is that if you are a jerk cop, it's rewarded and backed up by the courts. We have here two examples where the court caught the cop and did the right thing, but I have heard about countless examples where the courts back up the corrupt cops. I blame Carl Marx. Straight up. It's happening all over the world. Not just the United States. It's tyranny. Plain and simple.
You don't open they door they can call out the swat team to destroy your house and kill you while you are inside. ("After entering, discovered that the target had taken her own life.")
@@lwilton That's the problem, they'll put out the call that you've barricaded yourself inside and are considered armed and dangerous. Every hick police department has a SWAT team and are just itching to use it. They have to in order to justify their budget. Plenty of small departments use the SWAT team to serve traffic and other petty warrants.
This is a prime example of the difference between an intelligent person and an educated person . This police chief has a masters degree and was at the FBI academy . This is more proof that we live in a police state and all that matters is arresting any and all and let the courts figure it out . Shameful and disgusting behavior in that town .
Cops know they're practically untouchable and can do whatever they want to whoever they want. And they know the public, even if they're also armed, are too cowardly to stop them.
The fact that she was considered a “rising star in law enforcement” by her peers say everything we need to know about the systematic failure in policing…..
A woman police chief in London England was a rising star. On her watch cops shot an innocent man - she gave them permission to shoot. She resigned. But she was asked back to a job with more responsibility.
4 state have eliminated qualified immunity. Colorado., Montana, Nevada, and New Mexico. Have eliminated qualified immunity for state constitutional lawsuits against police officers. Every state should do the same .
This seems to be the kind of police state our country is turning into. I had a very similar experience. After taking my girl out to dinner, she wanted to stop for a few drinks. I was driving, so only had sodas all evening, while she got quite intoxicated.and started a fight. I left her at the bar and went to a nearby hotel for the night since I didn't want to put up with her any more. Once settled in for the night, I had a few drinks to calm the nerves and relax do I could sleep. A couple hours after I had checked in, I get woken up by the usual cop knock at the door. Cops were there to "investigate" a disturbance at the bar by my girl. Apparently, they found my car in the lot, so knew I was there. After asking a bunch of questions, they took me to the parking lot, gave me the roadside tests, and arrested me, and impounded my car. Cost me hundreds to get my car back after several weeks of storage because cop claimed he needed it "for his investigation." Not to mention the high cost for an uber to work and back during that time. This was dedpite the fact they had video from the bar of me NOT drinking all night, but their claim I "might" have been drinking before I arrived at the hotel. It cost me roughly $14k to finally beat it in court. But this shows nobody is safe from police misconduct even behind closed doors.
Let's be serious. Cops routinely commit murder on the job and get away with it. If you're Joe Average Citizen and you call the cops to report a problem, you're going to have two problems. The function of American police is to protect the powerful and wealthy.
Cops are generally too egocentric to worry about what other people think, they're gonna do what they want and damn the consequences.. because there rarely are any.
Resignations mean she walks away from her police job avoiding the repercussions of her actions, is free to work anywhere else, and still receives a life pension from the city. Where is there any punishment in that??? Her and the officer violated that ladys rights and took away her freedom with the threat of a prosecution. where's the justice in that???
Yeah ... no. This case will _never_ get in front of a judge. The city knows that the more people that see this, the worse it will be for them. They'll settle.
I wish they would have to Broadcast the whole thing LIVE on every single TV in the Nation. People still are not ready to see just how bad things really are.
I've been a plumber for over 30 years so , I've been inside many homes for service calls. I found many homes in which unkempt would have been an understatement. It was not any of my business to judge how a person lived so , I learned to accept it long ago. This story is a perfect example of why I don't let cops in my house or answer their questions. They will take photos and make fun of you, even on the internet.
@@Rightrudder2 for some reason my phone is unable to send a comment to @2b2b70, that you commented to be " Exactly on point " I totally agree that public officials work history should be transparent and available to the public through a FOIA request so concerned citizens can be aware of deficient, flawed, or incompetent government officers and officials.

In the UK we have a national barred list for constables for naughty cops. Individuals can be placed on it for a specific period of time or permanently. I know our political systems are different, but I'm sure such a system would not be beyond the wit of imagination.
We do have a "Brady List" where officers are put on it by prosecutors. Those officers are not allowed to testify in court cases. This is a death sentence since any case they are involved in is tainted. The problem is this list is local and only shared with local prosecutors. So he can leave do the same problems elsewhere and we can't know about it. @@TheHookahSmokingCaterpillar
Yep, if the cops are going to bust down my door and illegally search me and my property, there's NEVER going to be an interaction where they can claim I consented first.
"...never open your door or speak to law enforcement. ESPECIALLY when you are completely innocent." One should add "Or completely incoherent". They just HATE that, trust me. (But not quite as much as they hate ANY mention of their mother!)
@@brucelarsen6650 Idiot cops: “Police! Can you unlock this door please?” Innocent and smart citizen: “Why ossifers, what seems to be the problem? *BURP*” Angry idiot cops: “We’d like to speak to you inside!” Innocent and smart citizen: “Yo mama said to keep it locked and not let you in!” I like it!
Best argument I've seen for installing a Ring Doorbell and only taking to cops through the doorbell. If they want to break down the door without a warrant, that's on them.
Well there was an accident on her property though so they would have said she was uncooperative then or any other excuse to harass her they are predators was her landscaping ruined too by the car because they have some knee jerk reaction to victim blame people too. Before she gets upset about her hedge let's accuse her of wrong doing was she supposed to say sorry for the mess I should have been expecting company?
Honestly though she truly believed because she truly was an innocent who had nothing to fear from law enforcement. Obviously she will never make that mistake again.
The FBI obviously has VERY low standards these days. I never thought I would miss J. Edgar Hoover but at least that corrupt old bastard ran a tight ship and had high standards for his agents.
@@silverhammer7779 I wouldn't say their standards are low, making false arrests is practically an expectation for Feds now. Remember the IRS briefly having a job posting up saying agents needed to carry guns and be willing to kill?
I know cops who can spot FBI agents on a stake out, they are the one is a three peace suite with The Air conditioning running in the car, as their ar sit in front of the resident.
It is scary to know that a chief of police didn't understand or know law. This is so bad that not only does the chief need to be fired, but the people who appointed her chief of police.
The chief did understand and know the law. Anyone with training or not knows drinking in your own home isn't illegal. Nor is a dirty house. They just didn't care. A symptom of lack of accountability.
What? If someone crashes their car on my property I'm going to answer the door to get the info from the Police. You're going to just ignore them? You know how dumb that sounds?
Well, you can ignore them. Then they will say that you refused to open the door for police officers, which means there's something you want to hide, so now they have a "reason" to invade your home....
The court be like "you don't have a clearly established right to drink and watch baseball on your couch, and I'll be damned if I create precedent that clearly eatablishes it"
And people wonder why the police aren't trusted and lawyers tell you to NEVER talk to them and treat them as if they are always trying to arrest you for something you didn't do.
I was present for one of these. It was a family member who didn't live there, a daughter-in-law IIRC, who called police and EMS on a guy who was only marginally inebriated in his own house. My partner and I were the EMS who showed up. After understanding what was going on - seemingly an over-controlling daughter or daughter-in-law, I took my partner aside and told her that "being drunk in your own home isn't something to be arrested for, nor be drug to a hospital for." My partner agreed, so I told the police that we weren't going to do anything to the "patient." The police decided that they weren't going to do anything with the "suspect," either, and instructed the woman who called us all to leave this man's house.
They gave this lady a breathalyzer that found she was only slightly above the legal limit to drive. While there may very well be times when police should intervene in a situation, they went out of their way to collect evidence that should have told them not to.
The most important lesson: Just because they knock, does not mean that you have to open the door! No good can come from answering the door when the police are knocking.
I like how the consequences for officers is rehabilitation and additional training for not knowing the law whilst the consequences for everyone else is discipline and punishment
That is possibly the most stupid arrest I have ever seen, the idiocy is monumental! The arresting officers and the ones invading her home should not only be fired but sent for remedial education. Urgh, so dumb. I hope she sues the crap out of them.
She wants to take it up in FEDERAL Ct. As the dist. att. is probably as crooked as both the cops and the municable judge ( I think a federal superior judge would waive qualified immunity in THIS case)!!!!.😆😆
I willing to wager that the driver of the car was gone and that they went with the immediate assumption that since it was on her property, she was the one that wrecked it
Running the plates sounds like work. He's an important official who doesn't have time for that. I suspect it wasn't even an assumption. He really is working a drunk driving case, and she really is drunk and part of the case. Add in a stupid lazy cop, and he just arrests the drunk person associated with the drunk driving accident without ever considering what her role might or might not have been.

Hands down, one of the most agregious arrests I've ever seen. There should be firings, retrainings and compensation for the lady whose rights were violated multiple times/
Similar to my case ,I was arrested for the intent to DUI I was at home doing yard work and barbecue going when sheriff's show up looking for some four wheelers and a loud truck I had a truck but not what they were looking for, I was searched and arrested for having my keys in my pocket and they tried to charge me with intent to drive after I had been drinking 😢 I was let go one week later and charges were dismissed, I should have filed a law suit and showed them they can't make assumptions a crime...
This story kind of reminds me of a thing that happened to Patrick Roy, when he played for the Colorado Avalanche. His family was in Montreal on vacation. Patrick had a really bad game, at home he was yelling and slamming doors and other things you do when you are angry. A neighbor called the police on him for destruction of private property. The police arrive and talk with Patrick for a short time and the neighbor asked if they were going to arrest him, and the police asked for what? The neighbor said for the destruction of private property, so the police asked Patrick who owns the property and Patrick said he did. The neighbor really wanted Patrick arrested and pushed, so the police said "for what, destroying his own property?" Neighbor said of course ... The police laughed and walked away.
@@danielm8213 Cops should have informed him that he was very close to being arrested for filing a false police report and that continuing to press the matter would get him all the way.
This is INSANE! WOW! You can't make this shit up! I would NEVER allow police in my house to begin with, but this poor woman had nothing to fear. Or so she thought. This is the craziest story I've ever heard concerning police. It's no wonder there is a disconnect between the public and so called, law enforcement. Stunningly crazy.
Pro tip. When dealing with law enforcement never let them in without a warrant and keep ALL doors and windows closed and locked. Talk to them through the mail slot.
Steve you're missing the point. These seemingly harmless old ladies do many things. Look after Grand children after school, help out at homeless shelters , feed the needy ,run fundraisers for schools , organise charity concerts and so many more dangerous things. Thankfully we have trained fearless officers who stand in their way and protect us... I have been unfortunate enough to have been accosted by a grandmother who plied me with a hot chocolate drink and a coffee walnut cake with flaked chocolate on top...I was so traumatised that I went and had some more...am I caught in their web of addiction...?
Based on the evidence you have presented, I would most definitely say that yes, you are caught in their evil addiction trap. I'm sorry, but there is nothing any of us can do to help, except pray. We're praying hard that you never lose your taste buds.
Steve, this was a SCARY one. I mean, really - wth is even happening here - WHY would they EVER get the impression that she couldn't drink in her own home?! These are TRAINED officers, right? I mean - WOW.
You don't need training to know that its not illegal to drink in your own home. They knew it wasn't illegal. They knew they had no grounds for arrest. they were trying to score brownie points for a chief that had no regard for citizens' rights or well being. Combine that with officers with sociopathic tendencies and you have a recipe for disaster.
I've been saying it for a while now the stupidity level in this country is increasing at an alarming rate. The police officers in this case are beyond incompetent and should be immediately terminated. Law enforcement officers need to have a fundamental understanding of the law and everyone involved in this lacked any knowledge of the law.
If the police went to a judge for a search warrant because she was drinking at home the judge would probably ask the police if they were drinking or smoking.
I'm an old widowed asshole who never had kids. When your grandchildren are put into slave collars, I'll already be dead and I still won't have kids or grandkids to put slave collars on.
Here's a scary, but VERY true fact: Situations similar or even mirroring this incident happen EVERY SINGLE DAY across America. While there truly are MANY great Police Officers and Departments out there, there significantly more crooked, tyrannical, bullying, and power-hungry ones as well. This is EXACTLY why you, as a citizen, need to video and document EVERY interaction that you have with ANY badged official and ALWAYS stay up to date and current on your rights, privileges, and responsibilities as a said citizen. The more unassailable proof of corruption and misconduct that is publicized and reported, the sooner we as a nation can again live our lives without the fear of being persecuted, prosecuted, exploited, or abused. And according to THE SUPREME COURT OF THE UNITED STATES, filming/recording of Police Officers while they're on duty and acting as a sworn law officer IS permitted, allowed, and HIGHLY recommended.
I used to think there were good police out there in my twenties. Now that I'm in my thirtys, I know that all police are trash. If I worked somewhere and trash worked next to me and I allowed it, that would make me trash

There was a DWI case a number of years ago, that basically got swept under the rug as the saying goes. Officer had arrested some guy who was dating his daughter, and used the excuse for DWI, getting behind the wheel, with an open container. Hell, when I heard this, I knew not only will this guys life be over, the dad doing the arrest found an iron clad way, to stop his daughter dating. That was until I found out the wheel he was behind, was an arcade driving system, and the arcade/restaurant sold food and alcohol, so the open container had no chance as well. I believe this took place in Arkansas?
I wonder if it would be worth generating your own "bodycam" footage by setting up a discreetly placed home security camera or two, with some automation you can trigger that would on-demand start streaming the confrontation to a cloud storage solution so that it's preserved even if they wreck the place (being sure to test it out on occasion to verify that it's still functional). Then at the very least, if the police wrong you, you can pull that footage out of your pocket later on to demolish them in court and get compensated for their actions
My mom did that. She lived a small village in Canada, a prisoner had escaped in the area. The police warned people not to answer their doors and to try to stay inside. At about midnight they were going house to house doing wellness checks and of course she was asleep when they started knocking on the door. Her dog started barking and she couldn't here them over the dog. They were walking around her house shinning flash lights in all the windows and knocking on them trying to figure out if anyone was inside. They finally got her alarm company to call her. They ask her if she was aware they were outside knocking and she told them "Yes I did of course I didn't answer the door at midnight after they told me not to. Anyone can bang on the door and yell police that doesn't mean they really are."

Here's a good one for you, Steve. Back in the 70s, I was drinking at a bar, The Mad Hatter, in Underground Atlanta, when ready to go home, I ask the bartender to call a taxi for me, which he did. As I was being driven home, a cop pulled the taxi over for a tail light infraction. The cop smells alcohol on me, asks if I've been drinking, to which I replied, I hope so. The cop arrests me for, I kid you not, "Being drunk in a vehicle." In court the next morning when questioned by the judge, as to why I was drinking and driving, I explained that I wasn't, I was a passenger in a taxi. The judge's reaction was priceless, he raised one eyebrow, and said "Excuse me?" After reading the detailed report, the judge instructed a bailiff to have the officer report to his chambers, turned me loose with an apology, and instructed that my employer be called and told exactly why I was late for work.
If I was the judge, I would invite the officers Chief to be in chambers when I reamed the officer a new one.
If I were the judge I would have allowed you to be present when he chewed the cops a new a-hole.
Omg , About 10 years ago I got pulled over for doing 25 in a 35 And no matter how I try, I just could not explain that 35 was the upper limit not the mandatory speed and I was promptly arrested for arguing with him. the next morning in court the judge had the exact same reaction as your judge did 😂🤣😂 For me, they waived the fees for towing, and Impounding on my truck. The following week I saw that officer driving a paddy wagon, and just snickered.
See, my theory is that there have always been jerk cops because out of 100 plumbers, you are going to find one or two jerks! There will always be some.
However NOW A DAYS my theory is that if you are a jerk cop, it's rewarded and backed up by the courts. We have here two examples where the court caught the cop and did the right thing, but I have heard about countless examples where the courts back up the corrupt cops.
I blame Carl Marx. Straight up. It's happening all over the world. Not just the United States. It's tyranny. Plain and simple.
Really hope the Judge ripped that cop a new butthole.
This is why I say never over the door for cops unless you called for them to be there. It's insane how they think being drunk is illegal.
You don't open they door they can call out the swat team to destroy your house and kill you while you are inside. ("After entering, discovered that the target had taken her own life.")
@@lwilton
That's the problem, they'll put out the call that you've barricaded yourself inside and are considered armed and dangerous. Every hick police department has a SWAT team and are just itching to use it. They have to in order to justify their budget. Plenty of small departments use the SWAT team to serve traffic and other petty warrants.
And to top it off cops get more dui then the average citizen.
Repeal the 1033 program where military excess weapons of war are distributed to municipal PDs.
being drunk here is literally illegal, you dont open your door
This is a prime example of the difference between an intelligent person and an educated person . This police chief has a masters degree and was at the FBI academy . This is more proof that we live in a police state and all that matters is arresting any and all and let the courts figure it out . Shameful and disgusting behavior in that town .

Criminals with badges will try anything they can get away with, and when called on the carpet, they always claim QUALIFIED IMMUNITY!
4 state have eliminated qualified immunity. Colorado., Montana, Nevada, and New Mexico. Have eliminated qualified immunity for state constitutional lawsuits against police officers. Every state should do the same .
This seems to be the kind of police state our country is turning into.
I had a very similar experience. After taking my girl out to dinner, she wanted to stop for a few drinks. I was driving, so only had sodas all evening, while she got quite intoxicated.and started a fight. I left her at the bar and went to a nearby hotel for the night since I didn't want to put up with her any more. Once settled in for the night, I had a few drinks to calm the nerves and relax do I could sleep.
A couple hours after I had checked in, I get woken up by the usual cop knock at the door. Cops were there to "investigate" a disturbance at the bar by my girl. Apparently, they found my car in the lot, so knew I was there. After asking a bunch of questions, they took me to the parking lot, gave me the roadside tests, and arrested me, and impounded my car.
Cost me hundreds to get my car back after several weeks of storage because cop claimed he needed it "for his investigation." Not to mention the high cost for an uber to work and back during that time. This was dedpite the fact they had video from the bar of me NOT drinking all night, but their claim I "might" have been drinking before I arrived at the hotel.
It cost me roughly $14k to finally beat it in court. But this shows nobody is safe from police misconduct even behind closed doors.
So, what happened to the girlfriend? Did you make up or break up?
Sue for malicious prosecution. Next time don't answer the door!!!!!!
It was probably a slow night and they needed to arrest someone to meet their quota. You should have sued them.

@@Hatbox948 Yeah, we want to know. ;o)

Can’t imagine how it might feel to be an embarrassment to one’s entire profession
Cops are generally too egocentric to worry about what other people think, they're gonna do what they want and damn the consequences.. because there rarely are any.
They can't be embarrassed. You can bet this isn't the first time they pulled a stunt like this and they all cover for each other.
When the baseline for the profession is a low as it is, embarrassment isn't possible.
You're assuming they care.
Thats every cop at this point.

If I didn’t know that this story was real I wouldn’t have believed it. The fact that they returned is stunning!!!
Resignations mean she walks away from her police job avoiding the repercussions of her actions, is free to work anywhere else, and still receives a life pension from the city. Where is there any punishment in that??? Her and the officer violated that ladys rights and took away her freedom with the threat of a prosecution. where's the justice in that???
Thats when you have to bring suit against them and punish them in court.
A resignation is not a retirement. Therefore, no pension.
@@jimkoss3318 That's good at least.

In the UK we have a national barred list for constables for naughty cops.
Individuals can be placed on it for a specific period of time or permanently.
I know our political systems are different, but I'm sure such a system would not be beyond the wit of imagination.
We do have a "Brady List" where officers are put on it by prosecutors. Those officers are not allowed to testify in court cases. This is a death sentence since any case they are involved in is tainted. The problem is this list is local and only shared with local prosecutors.

I was present for one of these. It was a family member who didn't live there, a daughter-in-law IIRC, who called police and EMS on a guy who was only marginally inebriated in his own house. My partner and I were the EMS who showed up. After understanding what was going on - seemingly an over-controlling daughter or daughter-in-law, I took my partner aside and told her that "being drunk in your own home isn't something to be arrested for, nor be drug to a hospital for." My partner agreed, so I told the police that we weren't going to do anything to the "patient." The police decided that they weren't going to do anything with the "suspect," either, and instructed the woman who called us all to leave this man's house.
Amen! Good for you, your partner, and the officers! Thank you!

This story kind of reminds me of a thing that happened to Patrick Roy, when he played for the Colorado Avalanche. His family was in Montreal on vacation. Patrick had a really bad game, at home he was yelling and slamming doors and other things you do when you are angry. A neighbor called the police on him for destruction of private property. The police arrive and talk with Patrick for a short time and the neighbor asked if they were going to arrest him, and the police asked for what? The neighbor said for the destruction of private property, so the police asked Patrick who owns the property and Patrick said he did. The neighbor really wanted Patrick arrested and pushed, so the police said "for what, destroying his own property?" Neighbor said of course ... The police laughed and walked away.

You don't need training to know that its not illegal to drink in your own home. They knew it wasn't illegal. They knew they had no grounds for arrest. they were trying to score brownie points for a chief that had no regard for citizens' rights or well being. Combine that with officers with sociopathic tendencies and you have a recipe for disaster.

I've been saying it for a while now the stupidity level in this country is increasing at an alarming rate. The police officers in this case are beyond incompetent and should be immediately terminated. Law enforcement officers need to have a fundamental understanding of the law and everyone involved in this lacked any knowledge of the law.
If the police went to a judge for a search warrant because she was drinking at home the judge would probably ask the police if they were drinking or smoking.

Here's a scary, but VERY true fact:
Situations similar or even mirroring this incident happen EVERY SINGLE DAY across America. While there truly are MANY great Police Officers and Departments out there, there significantly more crooked, tyrannical, bullying, and power-hungry ones as well. This is EXACTLY why you, as a citizen, need to video and document EVERY interaction that you have with ANY badged official and ALWAYS stay up to date and current on your rights, privileges, and responsibilities as a said citizen. The more unassailable proof of corruption and misconduct that is publicized and reported, the sooner we as a nation can again live our lives without the fear of being persecuted, prosecuted, exploited, or abused.
And according to THE SUPREME COURT OF THE UNITED STATES, filming/recording of Police Officers while they're on duty and acting as a sworn law officer IS permitted, allowed, and HIGHLY recommended.
Cops are gang members who've made it..

If they saw my house, I'd get the death penalty
😂
Nasty 😂✌️
Why, is there a bush in your yard?
@@HippieLongHaired There's a yard in his bush 😏
Conclusion: Never open the door for the police if they don't have the search warrant
@ngchunghang2497 …unfortunately, she was alone and defenseless. Her door was in danger of being broken down if she didn’t comply with their demand. These “law enforcers” are anything but.
There was a DWI case a number of years ago, that basically got swept under the rug as the saying goes. Officer had arrested some guy who was dating his daughter, and used the excuse for DWI, getting behind the wheel, with an open container. Hell, when I heard this, I knew not only will this guys life be over, the dad doing the arrest found an iron clad way, to stop his daughter dating. That was until I found out the wheel he was behind, was an arcade driving system, and the arcade/restaurant sold food and alcohol, so the open container had no chance as well. I believe this took place in Arkansas?
The lesson from this episode is, if the police knock on your door, ignore them and pretend they don't exist.
I wonder if it would be worth generating your own "bodycam" footage by setting up a discreetly placed home security camera or two, with some automation you can trigger that would on-demand start streaming the confrontation to a cloud storage solution so that it's preserved even if they wreck the place (being sure to test it out on occasion to verify that it's still functional). Then at the very least, if the police wrong you, you can pull that footage out of your pocket later on to demolish them in court and get compensated for their actions
My mom did that. She lived a small village in Canada, a prisoner had escaped in the area. The police warned people not to answer their doors and to try to stay inside. At about midnight they were going house to house doing wellness checks and of course she was asleep when they started knocking on the door. Her dog started barking and she couldn't here them over the dog. They were walking around her house shinning flash lights in all the windows and knocking on them trying to figure out if anyone was inside. They finally got her alarm company to call her. They ask her if she was aware they were outside knocking and she told them "Yes I did of course I didn't answer the door at midnight after they told me not to. Anyone can bang on the door and yell police that doesn't mean they really are."
@@anniestarlight Take a look at the Civil Rights Lawyer's youtube channel. First thing they do now is destroy your cameras, generally when they are at the wrong address to begin with. All you get is the few seconds when they start to destroy your camera.
@coop I believe his 1st case video is of those "bad apple popo's" illegally breaking & entering after smashing all the visible cameras & rummaging through the house...even testing the guys dead friends ashes for drugs. Unknown to the dumb a's the guy had another secret camera set up that caught them. Watch that video set for more, but it's wild & full of corruption.
@@coop5329 That's why you hide/disguise them sufficiently well so that you at least catch some of what they're doing before before they find and destroy it, or even better if they don't find it, catch footage of what they do when they think they're not being watched
