If the man wins and files a lawsuit, the cop will claim QI, but I don't expect it would go in her favor. Judges generally don't give QI to cops who lie on the stand or plant evidence.

That's a sociopath who had a lifetime of lying so much its natural and backed with full confidence. Even here she is trying to show herself to be smarter than counsel with her little smug quips.
Here is the issue. That officer "In plain veiw removed and "cracked open a sealed bottle of alcohol from the door pocket to then toss it into the passer front seat. If that isn't evidence planting then what is? The prosecution should have dropped the charges. The level of corruption is insurmountable. This man needs to sue that town.. So many constitutional violations.
To the Defense: "I did not know I opened the bottle in my original testimony." To the Prosecution: "So, typically...I dump alcohol out if I find it." 🤨 So she routinely tampers with evidence when she finds it, then fabricates reports that can easily be disproved by her BWC 😒.
@@ClarityDetermination In Mel's previous vid on this case, the officer says she 'did not realize she broke the seal', but I too don't believe her. As that would mean she was also oblivious to the full weight of the bottle when she picked it up and how much contents she poured out. All oversights on her part and further reason to scrutinize the DUI charge.
Cop's claim that she (mistakenly) believed that she had to pour out the liquor is belied by the fact that she didn't pour out the supposedly "mixed drink" she claimed was in the cup.
It's a ploy to protect the police. You'll see videos where the cops go crazy on someone like pulling out their guns and ordering everyone out of the car and then later when they find out it's the wrong people they'll do something stupid like write a ticket for a cracked windshield or whatever other trivial bs they can think up.
The prosecutor wants to get a guilty verdict to prevent a civil rights lawsuit. She knows that the first cop has no credibility, she's claiming there's no relevant physical evidence, and without either of those, we all know there's no case for the DUI. (Is the suspended license charge legitimate? I don't know enough about state law to make any comments on it.)
@@dper1112If that's true about the suspended license, it will stand. That's why the fruit of the poisonous tree isn't valid, but any evidence (the alcohol bottle) can still be dismissed.
If you get pulled over make sure you record police!!! When the police approach your vehicle, make sure you say loudly to the police "god damn!!! How much marijuana are you smoking in that squad car?! I can smell it all the way from your squad car to my car!!!"
First, you provide absolutely incredible coverage of the case. Second, is others have said this case is absolutely infuriating and while we hope for justice, I can't help but think that this officer's agree just conduct will be swept under the rug. This is America.
One article said that his refusal to take the sobriety test is why they were able to arrest him (they didn’t tell him that refusing would mean arrest) but what’s crazy is that the officer has NOT said that on the stand. She hasn’t mentioned that part at all! It’s like shes saying he showed enough signs of being inebriated + the suspended license…. they haven’t painted a clear picture
This should have never gone to trial! Case should have been dismissed and the officer Oliver under an ethics and criminal investigation to determine the appropriate charges.
If he swerved, I would like to see the dash cam to prove it. She said his speed and no headlights drew her attention but the location where she stopped him was in the city with street lights. If he had traveled a little further south of where she stopped him he would have noticed his lights were not on.
I literally was on a jury for similar type of case in January, we found him not guilty simply because officers did this same type of sloppy investigation 🤦🏾♀️….. in this day and age of cameras, they should know better, and turning off the camera, don’t do that
By not testing what was in the mug, not giving a breath test, opening a sealed bottle, and throwing it back inside as if it were like that all along, I wouldn't believe anything that woman says.
This jury has a chance to rebuke this prosecutor for going to trial on a planted evidence case while at the same time refusing to prosecute the cop for planting evidence.
Great point, however, do you think the jury will do the right thing. Today is Monday and I'm still waiting to see the trial which has not appeared on TH-cam or online at this stage do you have an update
The only probable cause of DUI they had ( Bad Evidence ) the woman officers words was the bottle that she emptied her self. He was still detained with handcuffs for the drivers license charge not DUI so she created probable cause with her criminal action. She lied to her Sargant on scene when he asked if she had enough to arrest . She said yeah lot of booze in the car. I found a little vodka bottle. Her boss asked open? She said yes.
Yes she did. Lied to the sergeant. Before that, she tested the lie on the back up officer and allowed (by omission) that officer to place it in the arrest report.
She OPENED the bottle!!! It was a small bottle of vodka and you could hear the seal pop when she opened it. She claimed she only realized it was an unopened bottle after she opened it. Then she poured it out and put the empty bottle in the passenger seat!! Then she lied to her LT. And said the bottle was empty and opened.
Exactly! Then, she testified she didn't test the other cup and neither were considered as evidence of impairment. His eyes which I doubt she saw at night behind glasses, his speech-- the sound on the video clip played doesn't indicate he was slurring he was VERY clear in what he says REPEATEDLY, and his "aggression" towards having been told contradictions in the reasoning for his arrest and despite REPEATEDLY advising the officer he had nothing further to say being pressed on the matter. What happened to the marijuana she claimed to be smelling? When she couldn't substantiate the arrest they lied to cover the rest. Is it common protocol for one officer to ask the others is they had their body cams on? Apparently in this police force it is because noone seemed to think it out of the ordinary. The defense attorney should have pressed harder on having the officers identify which protocols they were following. They claimed to pull him over for driving erratically and speeding now it's changed to headlights?!?
FIRED THE LOW-LEVEL COP who opened the Alcohol!!! Thank you for allowing Americans to see 👀 how the real justice system works. We will continue to speak out. Thank you so much 💐.
1. You smelled marijuana, and found none, so one can conclude that your smeller is not functioning at all, since you found none. 2. You smelled alcohol in insulated cup, since your smeller is not functioning at all it is reasonable to assert that, you are wrong. If you thought, that alcohol was in the insulated cup why not test it? You let custody of evidence be compromised by having it towed with vehicle. 3. Did defendant submit to field sobriety tests? Was defendant given tests by blood after arrest? What were the results? Should we just take your word, when you smell nonexistent marijuana and alcohol, that your visual assessment is that he was impaired. 4. If you were falsely accused of something would you get angry? Just maybe that would explain his "aggressive behavior" which didn't occur until after his arrest and "charge of DUI". 5. At the scene you did tell the arresting officer that there was an open container. You also told the Sargent on the scene that there was an open container as well. 6. The only "evidence" of DUI was your personal observation? Much like your smelling marijuana I would assume. (Strike that your honor)
The simplest way to avoid this mess (a.k.a. corruption): They should be able to make a DUI arrest based on physical observations, but they should not be able to charge and prosecute without a positive breath and/or blood analysis.
This is a whole waste of tax payer money to have a case when this officer clearly planted evidence. Never want to take accountability and just say they made a mistake. The most that should be concerned about is the suspended license but even that is circustantial as to whether he knew about it. She needs to be held in contempt for lying under oath because that evasiveness is only showing she is lying trying to cover her behind. I hope yhis jury sees through this mess and doesnt take all day to make a decision.
All charges should be dropped. This officer told the male cop she found alcohol in the car. He said it was not open. This cop responded yes, open. The male cop then says ok. That was all the basis for the DUI. All three officers then turned off their body cams to confer. They even ask each other where their cams are off. The victim was not fumbling with his papers in the visor either. This whole incident is a shame.
Yet the police chief is backing her up while it is clear that she lied to her superior officer. This simple case has drawn world attention. Bush v Gore was the last time Tallahassee got this much attention.
Learn from this! Never answer questions when pulled over. You are NOT required to "help" the police find something to charge you with. Even the "small talk" is just a fishing expedition for charges.
she is a liar, plain and simple a liar. He should be cut free. I need to keep it real, he is guilty of one thing. Driving while black, I hate to go there but I can't figure it out for any other reason, I can't. I just wish he did not say a word but he did. I hope the jury is a jury of his peers and all that it implies. I am so tired of our court system being used for other motives than the law. I don't want to get political or focus on race but that is the theme. Race has been an issue for years for improper arrests, politics has been added some lately and now if you are aware of your civil rights that is now a reason to cuff someone up and stuff them in the back of a cop car. Anything short of full compliance to what ever law enforcement wants turns into a bogus charge or some 'trumped" up charge. This guy should be released, all charges dropped, given an apology and a nice check for his rights being violated. So sad, I also think the judge is part of it now with some of his rulings, just a shame. People wonder why the "system" is not trusted even more now, videos don't lie. What the cops do now to combat videos is turn their mics off. I say if a mic is turned off it is an immediate dismissal of that police officer and all charges dropped. Enough already, enough. I am so sorry this man is being treated like this. One last thing, the public defender means well but she is challenged a bit. Look forward to his full exoneration.
True but you know they do it to whites too. I know they do for a fact. They all, and the D.A.s and the judges are doing this regularly for years TYRANNY! AS THOUGH IT'S THE OLD U.S.S.R. The whole system is becoming tyrannical.
So she claims she didnt know she opened the bottle but earlier stated that dumping out alcohol was her normal practice .. which one is it? And why only pour out SOME of the liquid if shes 'dumping it? Wouldnt you dump it all? Leaving some contents in the bottle was her way of claiming it was open for consumption and she clearly planted it
In NH case law has established they have to prove you read the letter of license suspension, the state mailing it alone isn’t sufficient. The judge I prosecuted in front of was the judge that was overturned in the case law. Winning a OAS was impossible unless they confessed to it.
Unbelievable! I’m watching this from Europe and, more and more, fear US is turning into a police state. Where did they recruit low IQ, corrupt clowns like this? Oh, I don’t remember! This cop’s ego is off the chart, forgetting her oath to “serve and protect” by lying and treating this citizen as a criminal. She will probably be investigated and found to have worked within procedures and will be promoted. This is a very worrying situation going forward.
Wait. She said he stated he was coming from his HOME address then she said he was coming from Pockets. Which is it? This woman said she asked "always pours out the alcohol on traffic stops" so she does this routinely.
Didn't I hear that she poured out some of the vodka and not all of it? If so, I would like to know what kind of policy would require that they pour out some but not all of the liquid. I sure hope this is a jury trial because she has lost all credibility in my eye.
@CrazyKazy that was not lost on me. then this obvious cover up by the DA. I want the cops to keep me safe and enforce the law but I expect them to do it without breaking the law themselves.
Oh she tried to set him up. I wish I was on this jury because, Stevie Wonder can see all the holes in her testimony. The bottle and cup are not evidence but, you put it in your report to bolster you case against him.

The judge knows exactly what’s going on. He is part of the corruption. He could have easily tossed the case out but they are all trying to cover up for the corrupt cop.
This is an example case why there is no trust in the court system - Officers and prosecutors can lie teeth out of their mouths and the judge allows that to happen.
If she did that to the sealed bottle in order to charge him, she’s guilty of planting evidence 100% and needs to be fired and charged. If an officer acts in good faith, even if they make a mistake I’ll back them. As far as the address goes, that’s his fault, if he doesn’t check the address that his licence has on it that’s no excuse to deny not getting notice of a suspended licence. Did he take a PBT or chemical test at the station?
The address on his license is where he lives. The notice was not sent there. Everyone agrees on these facts. So ... by your own standards, it's not his fault. Second, is there any sign that she acted in good faith with regards to the bottle? She claims she didn't realize it was sealed until watching the video later, but certainly she knew it was full when she picked it up. However, she didn't inform any other officer on scene that (a) it was sealed, (b) it was full, or (c) that she poured it out.
@@dper1112 my comment on acting on good faith was now an indication that I think she did, it was a general comment on law enforcement. If she did that to get him charged then she deserves everything she gets, but I don’t believe he was charged with it. If the suspension notice wasn’t sent to his home address, and that was the address on his licence then despite not knowing how that could possibly happen he obviously can’t be blamed for not knowing, I agree. But where does the PO Box come into it, who gave that address? Did he pass or fail the chemical test? Because I personally feel DUI is one of the most disgusting offences that someone can commit, it has killed entire generations of families, unfortunately usually leaving the DUI driver alive, those crashes involving DUI drivers are NEVER an accident, they knowingly drive with the knowledge they may kill.
@@justwayne4785A lot of “if’s “ . Why not just state what actually happened. A corrupt cop planted evidence, lied on the scene and now lying in court…
Yeah, wishful thinking tho. This is Tallahassee, FL, another southern city where the go old boy system rules. If anything she will be promoted in 4 months. If I'm not mistaken, Tallahassee is in the district that elected Matt Gatez, so that should tell you the caliber of people that lives there. Well, the people in positions of authority.
How it works is once on the job you bring 100s if not 1000s of good cases or tickets. 10 MPH+ over the limit and blatant infractions to earn a good rapport with the judges and your supervisors. A rookie such as this has no proven record with the PD, Court or the public. She is an absurdity. A major case waiting to happen. Get rid of her before her first re enlistment or probation. ASAP!
In the deposition, the female cop responded to many of the questions as " I don't remember" . All of a sudden now in court, she remembers everything. Why did she open the bottle? She is a key suspect in crime ?
Every single person involved in this stop and trial, needs to be held accountable and barred from public service, henceforth. This is absolutely disgusting.
This is a true example of how the state wste taxpayers' money. This case should have been dismissed from the beginning. Police officers should be help accountable for planting evidence.
She saw a "black man" driving & profiled him, full stop! Then she took advantage of the situation when she saw the "SEALED, UNOPENED" bottle & made the decision to open said sealed bottle, (if you watch the video, you'll hear the seal break when she openes it!) Then she tosses the bottle w/some liquid still left in it, back into the car, then yells "DUI" to get "points" on her job! Lil Ms. Blondy should be charged with tampering w/evidence, lying about smelling marijuana, manipulation of facts & giving false information to her fellow officer to put into the report. Then she should be fired & NEVER be allowed to work as a police officer position again, as long as she is on planet earth! 1st - You don't ask him if he knew his license is suspended, you just "Ass-U-Me" he knew! 2nd - You didn't do a breath-alize to verify that the man was in fact, intoxicated. 3rd - You don't have the content of the cup tested. But, the thing that stands out the most to me is, "Oficer Oliver "IS" a lier.......period!!! She is willing to "FRAME" a man to fit her racist naritive! If you watch her deposition, basically all she says is "I can't recall" or "I don't remember".......when the answer goes against her, but her yass can remember everything else about the stop when it's against the defendant! "Girl bye! Get outta here, go sit in that corner over there & suck your thumb"... Cause you ain't foolin me! I see you...!!! & I saw what you did to that man & his life........ 🤨 🤬 😠

That's a sociopath who had a lifetime of lying so much its natural and backed with full confidence. Even here she is trying to show herself to be smarter than counsel with her little smug quips.
Here is the issue. That officer "In plain veiw removed and "cracked open a sealed bottle of alcohol from the door pocket to then toss it into the passer front seat. If that isn't evidence planting then what is? The prosecution should have dropped the charges. The level of corruption is insurmountable. This man needs to sue that town.. So many constitutional violations.
The "justice" system is doing this to people all over "america"
To the Defense: "I did not know I opened the bottle in my original testimony."
To the Prosecution: "So, typically...I dump alcohol out if I find it." 🤨
So she routinely tampers with evidence when she finds it, then fabricates reports that can easily be disproved by her BWC 😒.
When she said she didn't know she opened the bottle could she have meant she opened the seal?
I still don't believe her.
@@ClarityDetermination In Mel's previous vid on this case, the officer says she 'did not realize she broke the seal', but I too don't believe her. As that would mean she was also oblivious to the full weight of the bottle when she picked it up and how much contents she poured out. All oversights on her part and further reason to scrutinize the DUI charge.
Cop's claim that she (mistakenly) believed that she had to pour out the liquor is belied by the fact that she didn't pour out the supposedly "mixed drink" she claimed was in the cup.
@@conscientiousobserver8772 Nailed it!
Why is the prosecution opening like it’s a murder trial? Like girl, if they did everything above board you wouldn’t have to work that hard.
It's a ploy to protect the police.
You'll see videos where the cops go crazy on someone like pulling out their guns and ordering everyone out of the car and then later when they find out it's the wrong people they'll do something stupid like write a ticket for a cracked windshield or whatever other trivial bs they can think up.
And the perse... I mean prosecutor is supposed to be a gatekeeper of justice, not just a "Lock up as many mofo's as possible" operation.
The prosecutor wants to get a guilty verdict to prevent a civil rights lawsuit. She knows that the first cop has no credibility, she's claiming there's no relevant physical evidence, and without either of those, we all know there's no case for the DUI.
(Is the suspended license charge legitimate? I don't know enough about state law to make any comments on it.)
Because they're in cahoots against you and the rest of society, they are here to control you and will do everything they can to throw you in a cage
@@dper1112If that's true about the suspended license, it will stand. That's why the fruit of the poisonous tree isn't valid, but any evidence (the alcohol bottle) can still be dismissed.
Cop: I smell marijuana.
Me: are you admitting smoking before pulling me over?
😂😂
If you get pulled over make sure you record police!!! When the police approach your vehicle, make sure you say loudly to the police "god damn!!! How much marijuana are you smoking in that squad car?! I can smell it all the way from your squad car to my car!!!"
She stopped him for headlights. Now she says he was swirving? Also about his speech? Wow
His lawyer was throwing toooo many soft ball she should have tore her a new azz hole and prepare for a lawsuit.
First, you provide absolutely incredible coverage of the case. Second, is others have said this case is absolutely infuriating and while we hope for justice, I can't help but think that this officer's agree just conduct will be swept under the rug. This is America.
This is why you never talk to cops. Give the information required by law, assert your 5A right to remain silent, and then remain silent.
This Cop needs to be charged with perjury (if I spelled it correctly, it looks off).
What I need to know is was a breathalyzer used to test his alcohol levels since he was so drunk off of 2 beers…aren’t they suppose to do that?
That's what I was thinking 🤔 Like I haven't hear any mention of any type of field sobriety test. Maybe he refused 🤷🏾♀️ but she's a liar either way
They asked him to submit to a voluntary sobriety test - he refused.
He refused. I thought about that too!
I always thought that if they refused, then were arrested they could do a blood draw? At least in Virginia that's how it goes
One article said that his refusal to take the sobriety test is why they were able to arrest him (they didn’t tell him that refusing would mean arrest) but what’s crazy is that the officer has NOT said that on the stand. She hasn’t mentioned that part at all! It’s like shes saying he showed enough signs of being inebriated + the suspended license…. they haven’t painted a clear picture
This should have never gone to trial! Case should have been dismissed and the officer Oliver under an ethics and criminal investigation to determine the appropriate charges.
I will gladly protest if there’s gonna be one for this man! This is outrageous!
That officer lied on the stand!!! The defendant didn't have slurred speech. He didn't have bloodshot eyes, and he wasn't swerving in the road.
If he swerved, I would like to see the dash cam to prove it.
She said his speed and no headlights drew her attention but the location where she stopped him was in the city with street lights. If he had traveled a little further south of where she stopped him he would have noticed his lights were not on.
Unfortunately I've see this before. What we call bold-face lies, some prosecutors call "honest mistakes".
I literally was on a jury for similar type of case in January, we found him not guilty simply because officers did this same type of sloppy investigation 🤦🏾♀️….. in this day and age of cameras, they should know better, and turning off the camera, don’t do that
Thank you for your service to your town, your state, the nation, and the Constitution. You are a hero.
"Sloppy" is pretty generous.
By not testing what was in the mug, not giving a breath test, opening a sealed bottle, and throwing it back inside as if it were like that all along, I wouldn't believe anything that woman says.
This jury has a chance to rebuke this prosecutor for going to trial on a planted evidence case while at the same time refusing to prosecute the cop for planting evidence.
Great point, however, do you think the jury will do the right thing. Today is Monday and I'm still waiting to see the trial which has not appeared on TH-cam or online at this stage do you have an update
The only probable cause of DUI they had ( Bad Evidence ) the woman officers words was the bottle that she emptied her self. He was still detained with handcuffs for the drivers license charge not DUI so she created probable cause with her criminal action. She lied to her Sargant on scene when he asked if she had enough to arrest . She said yeah lot of booze in the car. I found a little vodka bottle. Her boss asked open? She said yes.
Yes she did. Lied to the sergeant. Before that, she tested the lie on the back up officer and allowed (by omission) that officer to place it in the arrest report.
The look on her face when the body cam is playing 😂. She's like "wow, i look like a real asshole"
She already had to watch it and get questioned in deposition. That's just her normal face. And I agree with your description of her appearance.
@@dper1112 I understand that. But there's no jury or audience in a deposition.
So if someone has a sealed bottle of wine she'll break out the corkscrew, open it, and pour the wine out? Isn't that theft?
If I was a member of this jury, I would be asking why this police officer is not on trial here..
The entire department needs to be fired. The male officer asking if the camera was off in a different video shows they lack integrity
I still dont understand how he was considered drunk off of 2 bottles of beer. She clearly used the open bottles to justify the arrest. Smh
She OPENED the bottle!!! It was a small bottle of vodka and you could hear the seal pop when she opened it. She claimed she only realized it was an unopened bottle after she opened it. Then she poured it out and put the empty bottle in the passenger seat!! Then she lied to her LT. And said the bottle was empty and opened.
Exactly! Then, she testified she didn't test the other cup and neither were considered as evidence of impairment. His eyes which I doubt she saw at night behind glasses, his speech-- the sound on the video clip played doesn't indicate he was slurring he was VERY clear in what he says REPEATEDLY, and his "aggression" towards having been told contradictions in the reasoning for his arrest and despite REPEATEDLY advising the officer he had nothing further to say being pressed on the matter. What happened to the marijuana she claimed to be smelling? When she couldn't substantiate the arrest they lied to cover the rest. Is it common protocol for one officer to ask the others is they had their body cams on? Apparently in this police force it is because noone seemed to think it out of the ordinary. The defense attorney should have pressed harder on having the officers identify which protocols they were following. They claimed to pull him over for driving erratically and speeding now it's changed to headlights?!?
In Florida black = guilty of something. Get with the program.
That’s my thing too. A grown man drinking 2 beers would be maybe, possibly a little tipsy at best
He made the mistake of admittedly drinking prior to being arrested.
Thank you for bringing this to everyone.
FIRED THE LOW-LEVEL COP who opened the Alcohol!!! Thank you for allowing Americans to see 👀 how the real justice system works. We will continue to speak out. Thank you so much 💐.
Mel I love how well you articulate this summary reporting ☺️
This is why you can never trust the police or this police reports. Question everything ask for video.
1. You smelled marijuana, and found none, so one can conclude that your smeller is not functioning at all, since you found none.
2. You smelled alcohol in insulated cup, since your smeller is not functioning at all it is reasonable to assert that, you are wrong. If you thought, that alcohol was in the insulated cup why not test it? You let custody of evidence be compromised by having it towed with vehicle.
3. Did defendant submit to field sobriety tests? Was defendant given tests by blood after arrest? What were the results? Should we just take your word, when you smell nonexistent marijuana and alcohol, that your visual assessment is that he was impaired.
4. If you were falsely accused of something would you get angry? Just maybe that would explain his "aggressive behavior" which didn't occur until after his arrest and "charge of DUI".
5. At the scene you did tell the arresting officer that there was an open container. You also told the Sargent on the scene that there was an open container as well.
6. The only "evidence" of DUI was your personal observation? Much like your smelling marijuana I would assume. (Strike that your honor)
We should be in front of her house acting a fool 😅
She needs to be charged, fired and sued with absolutely no qualified immunity to fall back on.
She is a extremely deceptive & manipulating individual.
Excellent recap. Thanks for posting.
Well, 60yo, stopped 5x, three tickets, never asked to search vehicle, never asked to get out, never told smelled Maryjane. But then, I’m not black.
The simplest way to avoid this mess (a.k.a. corruption): They should be able to make a DUI arrest based on physical observations, but they should not be able to charge and prosecute without a positive breath and/or blood analysis.
The judge should go to prison for allowing this to come to the courtroom. This is insane!
This is a whole waste of tax payer money to have a case when this officer clearly planted evidence. Never want to take accountability and just say they made a mistake. The most that should be concerned about is the suspended license but even that is circustantial as to whether he knew about it. She needs to be held in contempt for lying under oath because that evasiveness is only showing she is lying trying to cover her behind. I hope yhis jury sees through this mess and doesnt take all day to make a decision.
What’s crazy is the judge knows this and yet he is allowing this to play out as it is!
@cliffmanz The State is trying to get precedents in order to use in the future. It can be used against us in the future or the appeal would be held.
There are other reasons why they let bullshit like this go through the system.
@@christophercustonBS. Everything the judge needs to throw this case out is already there.
All charges should be dropped. This officer told the male cop she found alcohol in the car. He said it was not open. This cop responded yes, open. The male cop then says ok. That was all the basis for the DUI. All three officers then turned off their body cams to confer. They even ask each other where their cams are off. The victim was not fumbling with his papers in the visor either. This whole incident is a shame.
This dumb broad should be charged with kidnapping, and all the officers involved should be charged with aiding and betting the kidnapping
Yet the police chief is backing her up while it is clear that she lied to her superior officer.
This simple case has drawn world attention.
Bush v Gore was the last time Tallahassee got this much attention.
Damn these crazy lying Karen's...🤬🤬🤬
Great recap. This should have never gone to trial. She should be prosecuted and all of her previous cases should be examined.
I love this Mel… highlights of all these trials are great… Thanks for your break down
Sounds like DWB to me 😒
Stage 4.
What does DWB mean?
@@LYVwithLYNdriving while black
Learn from this! Never answer questions when pulled over. You are NOT required to "help" the police find something to charge you with. Even the "small talk" is just a fishing expedition for charges.
Soon as I hear a person talking all sweet and innocent, I’m like yeah right! Fool me once.
The legal and policing system in America is not fit for purpose. It would even embarrass a third world country.
And also "wear your mousiest look for the stand"...
Why they have an industrial sized bottle of lotion on the stand
😂😂😂
Industrial sized is wild 😂😂😂😂
Me looking for the bottle not hearing the state anymore!😅😂
Subscribed because I certainly want to hear the rest of this story! I was looking for trial info when I found your channel. Glad I found it.
she is a liar, plain and simple a liar. He should be cut free. I need to keep it real, he is guilty of one thing. Driving while black, I hate to go there but I can't figure it out for any other reason, I can't. I just wish he did not say a word but he did. I hope the jury is a jury of his peers and all that it implies. I am so tired of our court system being used for other motives than the law. I don't want to get political or focus on race but that is the theme. Race has been an issue for years for improper arrests, politics has been added some lately and now if you are aware of your civil rights that is now a reason to cuff someone up and stuff them in the back of a cop car. Anything short of full compliance to what ever law enforcement wants turns into a bogus charge or some 'trumped" up charge. This guy should be released, all charges dropped, given an apology and a nice check for his rights being violated. So sad, I also think the judge is part of it now with some of his rulings, just a shame. People wonder why the "system" is not trusted even more now, videos don't lie. What the cops do now to combat videos is turn their mics off. I say if a mic is turned off it is an immediate dismissal of that police officer and all charges dropped. Enough already, enough. I am so sorry this man is being treated like this. One last thing, the public defender means well but she is challenged a bit. Look forward to his full exoneration.
Very well said, I 100% agreed with you, driving while black period.
True but you know they do it to whites too. I know they do for a fact. They all, and the D.A.s and the judges are doing this regularly for years TYRANNY! AS THOUGH IT'S THE OLD U.S.S.R. The whole system is becoming tyrannical.
That officer should be fired and jailed for this!!!
That officer is chilly as Hell. I think she knew what she did.
It’s amazing that the state reviewed this evidence, body cam footage and still moved forward with prosecution.
So she claims she didnt know she opened the bottle but earlier stated that dumping out alcohol was her normal practice .. which one is it? And why only pour out SOME of the liquid if shes 'dumping it? Wouldnt you dump it all? Leaving some contents in the bottle was her way of claiming it was open for consumption and she clearly planted it
In NH case law has established they have to prove you read the letter of license suspension, the state mailing it alone isn’t sufficient. The judge I prosecuted in front of was the judge that was overturned in the case law. Winning a OAS was impossible unless they confessed to it.
Planting evidence
Destroying evidence
Targeting
Perjury
Candidate as employee in fast food industry
or for a promotion with the police department
Nah, there's higher standards in fast food.
Unbelievable! I’m watching this from Europe and, more and more, fear US is turning into a police state. Where did they recruit low IQ, corrupt clowns like this? Oh, I don’t remember! This cop’s ego is off the chart, forgetting her oath to “serve and protect” by lying and treating this citizen as a criminal. She will probably be investigated and found to have worked within procedures and will be promoted. This is a very worrying situation going forward.
Great work. Subscribed
Thanks for this. Your recap helped me catch up ❤
Wait. She said he stated he was coming from his HOME address then she said he was coming from Pockets. Which is it? This woman said she asked "always pours out the alcohol on traffic stops" so she does this routinely.
But didn't pour out the "alcoholic" contents of the open cup. I'll take Stupid and Unreliable Witness for 100 please.
YES!! I CAUGHT THAT TOO!! 💯
Tempers with evidence on a regular basis. Admitted.
The cop has dementia, or is a liar!! She needs to be fired!
Charged, not fired. She planted evidence
She taught to lie
State is trying to do this poor guy in. Unethical behavior by officer should be on trial.
Thank you for sharing this.
Didn't I hear that she poured out some of the vodka and not all of it? If so, I would like to know what kind of policy would require that they pour out some but not all of the liquid. I sure hope this is a jury trial because she has lost all credibility in my eye.
@CrazyKazy that was not lost on me. then this obvious cover up by the DA. I want the cops to keep me safe and enforce the law but I expect them to do it without breaking the law themselves.
Basically her excuse was that she is just a rookie at fabricating evidence, so she should get a pass for her errors.
And in only a few more years she wouldve become a pro at it like the rest of them
Justice for Calvin! Sending prayers from Virginia!
Oh she tried to set him up. I wish I was on this jury because, Stevie Wonder can see all the holes in her testimony. The bottle and cup are not evidence but, you put it in your report to bolster you case against him.

This judge is so blind he needs a damn seeing eye dog...
The judge knows exactly what’s going on. He is part of the corruption. He could have easily tossed the case out but they are all trying to cover up for the corrupt cop.
Judge is not blind. He is part of the corruption.
This is an example case why there is no trust in the court system - Officers and prosecutors can lie teeth out of their mouths and the judge allows that to happen.
The judge is part of the corruption. It’s all about increasing revenue for their county. They impose fines and court fees etc on innocent people
The judge needs to be removed from the bench.
Horrible... Wow... shame on the judge and the prosecutor
They always excuse and help each other. We’re the ones that turn on our own
If she did that to the sealed bottle in order to charge him, she’s guilty of planting evidence 100% and needs to be fired and charged.
If an officer acts in good faith, even if they make a mistake I’ll back them.
As far as the address goes, that’s his fault, if he doesn’t check the address that his licence has on it that’s no excuse to deny not getting notice of a suspended licence.
Did he take a PBT or chemical test at the station?
The address on his license is where he lives. The notice was not sent there. Everyone agrees on these facts. So ... by your own standards, it's not his fault.
Second, is there any sign that she acted in good faith with regards to the bottle? She claims she didn't realize it was sealed until watching the video later, but certainly she knew it was full when she picked it up. However, she didn't inform any other officer on scene that (a) it was sealed, (b) it was full, or (c) that she poured it out.
@@dper1112 my comment on acting on good faith was now an indication that I think she did, it was a general comment on law enforcement.
If she did that to get him charged then she deserves everything she gets, but I don’t believe he was charged with it.
If the suspension notice wasn’t sent to his home address, and that was the address on his licence then despite not knowing how that could possibly happen he obviously can’t be blamed for not knowing, I agree. But where does the PO Box come into it, who gave that address?
Did he pass or fail the chemical test?
Because I personally feel DUI is one of the most disgusting offences that someone can commit, it has killed entire generations of families, unfortunately usually leaving the DUI driver alive, those crashes involving DUI drivers are NEVER an accident, they knowingly drive with the knowledge they may kill.
@@justwayne4785A lot of “if’s “ . Why not just state what actually happened. A corrupt cop planted evidence, lied on the scene and now lying in court…
Driving while suspended is a ticket not a arrestable offense! That is why she fabricated the marijuna and then the DUI!!!
When answerings such detailed questions you never say, "I don't recall."
cop and DA should both be in jail......and the judge need to be fired or recall.
Yeah, wishful thinking tho. This is Tallahassee, FL, another southern city where the go old boy system rules. If anything she will be promoted in 4 months. If I'm not mistaken, Tallahassee is in the district that elected Matt Gatez, so that should tell you the caliber of people that lives there. Well, the people in positions of authority.
Need to be fired and never be an officer again no matter what county or state
How it works is once on the job you bring 100s if not 1000s of good cases or tickets. 10 MPH+ over the limit and blatant infractions to earn a good rapport with the judges and your supervisors. A rookie such as this has no proven record with the PD, Court or the public. She is an absurdity. A major case waiting to happen. Get rid of her before her first re enlistment or probation. ASAP!
In the deposition, the female cop responded to many of the questions as " I don't remember" . All of a sudden now in court, she remembers everything. Why did she open the bottle? She is a key suspect in crime ?
So now it matters WHEN cops plant the evidence?😂😂😂
Every single person involved in this stop and trial, needs to be held accountable and barred from public service, henceforth. This is absolutely disgusting.
In the interest of justice, I think some 'jurry nullification' is in order.
I just watched a bit of her deposition, and yeah... she's already lying.
Not only the officer the prosecutor as well. Then she made sure another officer did the report to make it look good. This case should not be in court
Love it when their actions come to light in front of everyone
This is a true example of how the state wste taxpayers' money. This case should have been dismissed from the beginning. Police officers should be help accountable for planting evidence.
She saw a "black man" driving & profiled him, full stop! Then she took advantage of the situation when she saw the "SEALED, UNOPENED" bottle & made the decision to open said sealed bottle, (if you watch the video, you'll hear the seal break when she openes it!) Then she tosses the bottle w/some liquid still left in it, back into the car, then yells "DUI" to get "points" on her job!
Lil Ms. Blondy should be charged with tampering w/evidence, lying about smelling marijuana, manipulation of facts & giving false information to her fellow officer to put into the report. Then she should be fired & NEVER be allowed to work as a police officer position again, as long as she is on planet earth!
1st - You don't ask him if he knew his license is suspended, you just "Ass-U-Me" he knew! 2nd - You didn't do a breath-alize to verify that the man was in fact, intoxicated. 3rd - You don't have the content of the cup tested.
But, the thing that stands out the most to me is, "Oficer Oliver "IS" a lier.......period!!! She is willing to "FRAME" a man to fit her racist naritive!
If you watch her deposition, basically all she says is "I can't recall" or "I don't remember".......when the answer goes against her, but her yass can remember everything else about the stop when it's against the defendant!
"Girl bye! Get outta here, go sit in that corner over there & suck your thumb"... Cause you ain't foolin me! I see you...!!! & I saw what you did to that man & his life........ 🤨 🤬 😠
