They're laughing in the south Pacific islands, New Zealand, Australia atm.
When a wide turn gets you arrested but lying on a police report gets you demoted.
A+ for simplicity. Should be the title of an article in their local paper. But it won't be.
Right turns. Both the approach for a right turn and a right turn shall be made as close as practicable to the right-hand curb or edge of the roadway.
As close as practicable. So if it is simply impossible for a vehicle to turn from and into the right-hand curb lane, you have a defense. A driver just has to show that they were as close to the curb lanes as possible. The statute does not require that the driver be in the curb lanes.
@@markovichglass 1. Fighting the wide turn violation doesn't undo the arrests, and the costs/damages associated with the arrests. 2. Fighting the wide turn violation assumes that the judge will be acting in good faith, which clearly the police officers here did not.
I dont even believe it was a wide right turn. He never left the lane of travel.
Because the person doing the turn isn't a police officer.
But the person lying on the report is.
That's the difference. And it's disgusting.
Falsifying any police records should be terminated as well as going to jail just like anyone else..
If not jail time, how about having the officer pay the fines that his victim had to pay.
@@adcolt54 If they had accountability, we would see the stuff drop.
What if we made falsification of police records carry the same sentence as lying under oath in court?
@@comochinganconesto A police report should be treated as a sworn affidavit. Perjury on those is a felony.
who paid the towing
The department ended up paying the dad $200,000 after he sued, and Shimanek resigned after being demoted.
You love to fucking see it!!
Let’s go!!! I was waiting for this
fuckin nice!
your an angel for actually looking that up
amen brother
Fucking justice, makes me sick these powerhungry paranoid pigs man this shit has happened to me.
UPDATE: Officer Blake Shimanek was indicted for official oppression, and he plead guilty to that charge, The body cam footage had him caught red handed. He had to surrender his peace officer's license and join the county's public safety treatment program for rehabilitation. If he fails to complete the program he could be sentenced to a year in prison and a $4000 fine.
Marco Puente sued, and the city of Keller, TX paid him $200,000
Awesome news!
Great post! Thank you for taking the time to bring us up to speed. I'm glad the police did face punitive action, though, it was not what it should have been.
You mean the taxpayers of that town had to pay his $200,000
Amen
@@RitaFieldsRacing No, the taxpayers paid NOTHING! All police departments, their unions, all cities, towns and municipalities… they ALL have to carry liability insurance specifically for legal issues like this. A small amount of tax dollars would be involved as the cost of that insurance would go up due to this claim, but that would be marginal at best. The pay out SHOULD come from the officer who broke the law, but qualified immunity and the legal system make that impossible to happen. If any private citizen had been sued civilly for doing something similar, that private citizen WOULD have to pay whatever settlement amount there was, out of his own pocket - I doubt any of us regular people have liability insurance outside of insuring our vehicles and homes, so there wouldn’t be any insurance company to save the day for a citizens stupid and illegal actions. It’s horrible that there IS insurance for a law enforcement officer and agency though.
Bottom line, settlements like this cost taxpayers zero except for a few rare issues. 1) a violation of the insurance policy (so the officer doing this while off duty may be an example of that). 2) The city had too many insurance claims and using insurance to pay the settlement would cause an increase in insurance premiums higher than the settlement. In that case it would make sense for the police agency/city to pay “cash” vs making insurance claim.
Cheers!

Update: Officer got demoted 2 ranks. Resigned earlier this year. They victims won a 200,000 settlement. And now since 2 days ago the officer is being indicted hehehehe justice rises
danm 200,000 dollars nice
Thanks for the update
The former officer displayed the classic signs of a man too consumed by fear to be capable of being a police officer of any benefit to the community.
It's like the idiot forgot he had a body cam on.
The indictment is a good development. Let's see if they'll convict him.
Just imagine if Cops didn't have body cams, these two dudes would of had their lives totally changed for a lying ego motivated cop. Unbelievable!
Great comment. I am sure the kid and his dad will not easily forget this. There was nothing good or justified about this entire incident. Arrested for a "wide right turn". Yeah, right.
you should have the top thumbs up. you nailed it.
Welcome to being an African American or any POC in the United States.
@@dangelo1369 Really? The only time I ever had a negative interaction with law enforcement was a time I was detained w/o reason by a Sheriff deputy that was a "POC"
Would *have.
But yeah, I agree with you 100%.
"He made a wide right turn so obviously he has narcotics."
What a maniac
If they can jump to anything, it's conclusions lol
We spoke and he worked with me, I’m gonna arrest him for a wide right turn.
Probally had a knife or a gun too...oh and a stolen baby.
“He’s being reasonable.... HE MUST HAVE NARCOTICS!!!”
@@XRobotWarriorX Get em get em!
"Arrest him." He literally sounded like a dictator the way he said that so calmly and matter-of-factly.
And even worse for no legitimate reason at all! He thought he could just get away with arresting and pepper spraying someone, all because he wanted to and didn't like the guy. That mentality and doing it like it was something normal is scary af, i can't even imagine how many times that p.o.s abused his power in the past.
These videos get me actually enraged, it's crazy how criminal *law enforcement* can be, and i keep thinking about all the unjust and unlawful arrests that have taken place with no one finding out and with no justice for the victims and accountability for the officers.
This system and those people need a reform, cause this ain't it.
Same energy as “off with their head!”
Jawohl mein führer !
He sounded like Trump
He has a bodycam and still lies... I call that stupidity.
Just shows the entitlement of cops is ridiculous. How many times cops will literally say they can do whatever they want. Actions speak even louder than those words.
More to the point; The fact he can knowingly lie....And get away with it, Is the BIGGEST slap in the public's face!!! No accountability!
These moron cops think they can get away with it. The body Cam is a Good thing.
I call it privilege
No, not stupidity! It is his belief that he is above the law, as the others have said. Like Cuomo! Until we put aside politics and hold EVERYONE accountable for his actions, this will continue.
Demoted? This cop should lose his badge forever.
Well, according to his PD; He was doing what he was TRAINED to do; Lie, Assault, and Extort. "When one starts Policing for Profit, it immediately becomes the criminal it was originally tasked with protecting us from..."

Update: officer resigned in February. City settled the lawsuit for $200,000, and the officer was indicted by a grand jury.
Thanks for posting.
Thank god man I’ve had a run in with Keller pd before for failure to signal (100% sure I did signal every damn time I made a lane change or turn) when I was visiting the city and by god were they all egotistical maniacs like u can tell how power hungry these sobs are it truly amazed me! Finally some real justice has been served in Keller mfn Texas
It's time the settlement should come from the police pension funds not the taxpayers. This will cut such silly incidents to near zero
Southern justice
i bet he resigned so he can move to another state and get a sgt position right away.
Knowingly lying in a police report should be considered perjury and maybe even tampering with evidence depending on how deceptive it's made out to be. Give these crooked cops what they deserve: some time to see things on the other side of the bars.
It is considered perjury and carries stiff penalties, actually.
Or, it would, if the Prosecutor's office ever actually charged and got convictions against cops for committing that crime.
Why judges still take any police report as gospel when, at best, it's one side of a set of events is beyond me. Thank goodness for video. The 1st group to promote cameras in squad cars were insurance companies who needed facts...not testimony.
When are we going to start charging cops for assault after this type of behavior?!?
The police protect the politicians. In turn they get immunity from their wrong doings.
@@rjskum688 not only the politicians. They serve the rich and powerful above all (as do the politicians)

Update: Sergeant Shimanek was demoted two ranks and ultimately quit the department in February of this year
Should've gotten worsec
He shouldn't have been allowed to quit. These "bad apples" can't just be allowed to quit and move on to some other shitheel backwater where no one will hold him responsible for his actions.
Bye Felicia!
Hope as a civilian he gets a lying cop to fabricate evidence that lands him in jail where nobody cares about him enough to pay the $40 bail so he gets to spend the weekend in a holding cell thinking about why being a scumbag isnt a smart way to move through life no matter how many times hiswife cheated on him for having a small ED afflicted penis and how he had no one willing to be friends with him there to consul him through the emotional trauma
@@EGstill85 ........ okay
Still lying with body cams imagine what they were getting away with in 1999
alot I plan on becoming a cop next year and i still believe police officer should indeed wear body cams
I wish cops had bodycams here in France, so much abuse over here.
1999,,1989,1979,1969,.1959,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,etc
Rodney King
These kind of cops call the time before body cameras and cell phone video, "The good old days."
The officer was fired, plead guilty to a misdemeanor, and the family won $200,000 in a settlement with the city
The officer illegally arrested someone, depriving them of their rights. LEO's like this need to be placed in a register and forbidden to EVER hold a job, ANYWHERE, WHICH INVOLVES in any capacity, any law enforcement activity, including dog catcher and meter maid. That was as criminal as it gets. You or I would have been charged with kidnapping.
Didn't lose her job??
Beautiful
Good. A cop that paranoid doesn’t deserve the badge
Once you've been fired from one PD you should not be able to get a job with another.
"Policeman shits himself over a routine traffic stop, gets triggered because his feelings get hurt"
Yeah, kinda sums it up pretty neatly.
Alot of police think they are the shit. Most of them seem to be nothing more than highschool dropouts without an education in anything. I swear to god the police recruit for people who instinctively lie. Poor cops feelings got hurt.
That's the normal ego of a police officer.
Disrespecting a fragile cop's ego is a felony offense, ya know?
@@rslwannabe9475 Think about it, they are only high school graduates who doesn't have to know their job, they are poorly trained, indoctrinated to favor themselves over the citizenry they are deemed to protect, protected by everyone around them, and are never held responsible for their behavior. That creates egomanical monsters called police officers.
A police officer lying on a report should be found personally guilty of the felony of perjury on a sworn affidavit.
Yep.....I want to see him fired and serve jail time.
Mind-blowing how this isn't already the way things are. Just goes to show how corrupt the systems really are.
Unfortunately it is entirely up to the prosecutor (District Attorney) to decide if charges are pressed. Seen it all the time that the DA chooses not to pursue it when it comes to cops. Just the way it works.
Absolutely!! 👍🏻👍🏻
I found it amusing that they 'demoted' a sergeant to an 'officer'. They aren't officers, they are constables. An officer has a commission from a head of state. A constable has a warrant from a head of state. Very big difference. Stop calling constables 'officers'. It's as stupid as calling arrest 'detained' (i.e. creating a third state of legal being for the first time since 1066, and eventually some smart cop realised they can say 'yes' and not have to do all the paperwork and some nasty lawmaker in some jurisdictions there then decided to make it law).
This officer should be removed from his position. He's aggressive, power tripping and lying. None of these behaviors are consistent with proper training or procedure.
Truth. Perhaps he got such training and he ego continues to get in the way. That speaks more to recruitment procedure.
You sure about that?
Joe Biden’s america
@@bombfirst157 *OHHH BROTHER* Always that one guy smh
That applies to all Pigs though.
UPDATE!: the officer was charged with a class A misdemeanor and had to forfeit his peace officer certification and cannot be a police officer in Texas
You love to see it
"Arrest him for blocking the roadway"
Man standing on the sidewalk: "What"
"Officer, how much have you been drinking today? I'm gonna need your license and registration"🤣
He wanted to get the camera away from dad. He was going to do anything to shut that down. He couldn’t chance dropping a little present into the car with dad filming right over his shoulder.
Yep. definitely a WTF moment. Father's recording to safeguard his son, cop get's ANNOYED he can't do anything shady and has to look like he's actually doing his job right. Nope. Just out and out arrests the father on trumped up charges. Problem solved...
He put that alleged offense from a minute before into his lunchbox.
How the sadist cop then followed his seemingly nonsensical order without hesitation was also telling.
Thats a sidewalk not a roadway then. DUR DUR DUR
The cop's speech patterns show that he's struggling to fabricate justification for his power trip. Typical abuser.
Yep! 100% bully!

Second amendment seems like a joke and only works again children.
Funny thing: If a cop is parked and he has the window down, and you walk up to him to ask directions or something, guess what he does? Yep, he rolls the window up for his safety.

Hey Floyd P...this kid was lucky that his father showed up...because this cop started out being overly aggressive and might have gotten violent!
And rude, the cop called him rude for exercising his rights🙄 What a little snowflake.
@@wish1012 agree!
This is what ALL Police Departments and Law Enforcement Agencies have been trained to and how they respond and conduct themselves no matter what the situation anymore. "Cops" no longer police or defuse the situations or try to resolve before it escalates with anything they get involved with. Their mentality and training, thanks a lot to Federal Assistance/ Guidance, is now to be aggressive, violent and smash all resistance even if they are wrong or there is no need for it. Look at their equipment they are given, again by the Federal Govt. MRAP's, bigger stronger weapons and weapon systems. They have been Militarized and no longer assist any citizens generally instead their mentality and "status quo" is all about Intimidation and Over Law Enforcement. This video is a prime example, this Cop has it out for this guy, for some reason, because he knows his history and uses a BS excuse of a "Wide Turn" then proceeds to "LIE" about everything that has happened! What parent will not question what is happening to their child, no matter their age, in a similar incident? I hope they win a HUGE Lawsuit against those officers and that PD! My experience is, Not all mind you but a big number of Cops, no matter what position, department, State or Fed, doesn't matter, were the kids in school/college who were picked on, bullied and made fun of or shunned for some reason or another. Then they get a taste of the "Authority-Respect" that comes with being in the Law Enforcement Realm and it turns them into this "perfect storm" of Officers abusing their power and is ultimately a recipe for disaster for all that come in contact with these types! Thank goodness not all Officers in these respective different departments and agencies are like this... but the old adage "One Rotten Apple Spoils the Bunch" comes to mind.
@@vanguardactual1 It's become the same in Canada. Our Municipal, Provincial, and Federal police forces have become remarkably empowered, impossible to fire thanks to entrenched laws and the unions, and increasingly militant, taking a lot of our training processes and equipment from the US's lead.
I give the dad an A+ being a good father and protecting his son
No such thing as a bad dad! You're earn the title dad for being a good father! If your a bad father you're not a dad! I love my son more than he will ever know! I'd do anything for him!

@@ICBMCatcher Congratulations, but that's not how the law works. Either enforce it or don't. Cops get butthurt and then make the situation worse. How a citizen was emotionally acting should be irrelevant. Either they broke a law or they didn't. People have had enough with this "you giving me lip boy" attitude cops have. It's pure power trip stuff.
This is exactly why every cop needs to have a camera on them at all times.
Simply dropping the charges and saying "oopsy daisy" is NEVER enough for a wrongful arrest.
That's what ropes are for. Short drop hard stop. Stops tyranny right in it's tracks. Oh wait... Trump authorized firing squads... even better :D
To quote the guy from the Pitch Meetings channel, “OHHH WHOPPS!!!” Whoopsies!!

It's the equivalent of going for a handshake but ending up drop-kicking them to the chest and arguing "That was an honest mistake, don't be so mad".

Not just this officer but also the other one who obeyed the order to arrest the father and then the lieutenant who approved the search of the car with the bogus traffic stop of "committing a wide turn".
Depends on the public will. The city council will need to be pressured.
After pouring hot wax on his marbles for balls.
He should be incarcerated.
@@adcolt54 well we do have to be fair. The other officer did not seem to be present at the time and probably was not fully aware of the circumstances so there was no reason for him to disobey. But he most certainly should have been disciplined for excessive force - under all circumstances he still had no reason to mace the guy for supposedly resisting arrest, lawful or otherwise.
Also the lieutenant doesn't have any responsibility in that aspect because he is not required to sign off on that. The sergeant can do that with or without the lieutenant's presence. Also he's just going off the same lies that the Sgt. told him so he has no reason to object without further information. That being said the lieutenant has to keep a closer eye on his guys since that's part of his job requirement and in this case he is the one that should have been considered for possible demotion unless he cleans his house (with the Sgt. also being fired as soon as the investigation was completed - but that goes without saying).
When I was a kid back in the 50's we had a walking-beat patrol man that covered our neighborhood. All he carried was a Billy club attached to his belt. We knew him on a first name basis. My mom would make him cookies. He was friends with everybody, and he made us feel safe. My how times have changed.

While I don't wish to defend the corrupt cop, I believe the heavy breathing was a result of the scuffle with the father. His nervousness when talking to his chief, I attribute to his certain knowledge that he was stretching his authority and that he was hanging everything on finding drugs in the car.
Although, honestly, the cop was giving off plenty of signs that a reasonable person could construe to be indicators of drug use.

Sounds like a perfectly natural reaction to being confronted by a dishonest agent of state violence.
Another lie (extreme exaggeration). Not one accurate statement in that police report.
And one who was stalking him for a mile
The cop is instantly escalating, rude, scared, and lying. What a punk.
If the driver had complied no issue. Dad is about to get arrested.
damn bro how’s that boot taste
@@robertvelasquez2173 You talking to me or the bootlicker?
RedSkaal He's talking to the other guy who slobbering all over the cop's boots.
@@Dexrazor Just like you do every time a cop drives by
"You're gonna be arrested if you don't park and get out"
*parks and gets out*
"You're under arrest for blocking the roadway"
first thing officer says is "I have been following you for a mile". He clearly was looking for any excuse to stop and check this guy. He is a bully and shouldn't be a policeman.
slurmy scott, Cops do profile people. I guess we all do that to some extent. I have been profiled and stopped many times for having an old truck, long hair and driving at early hours in the morning. Cops have searched my vehicles, for no reason, before I knew about my rights. Looking back, I think it's important to know what you are required to do at a traffic stop and what cops can do under the law. If we don't know and exercise these laws, they will slowly be taken away.
Most drivers will make an error if followed by a police car for one mile. And as far offence go, turning a little too wide has to be the lamest offence.
The cop said he had a previous narcotics charge so he was gonna get him for what ever he could. Though he was gonna be a hero and make a bust.
Even more a Sergeant!
@@christopherodonnell7718 - Making a "wide right turn" is purely a judgment call. Notice he didn't say he crossed into an oncoming lane in that turn, or anything like that... merely that he judged the turn to be "wide". That's not a criminal act, nor does it warrant an arrest.
If that's the best he could come up with after following the kid for a mile, then the kid was driving just fine. That cop should NEVER wear a badge again.
A Cops job should be to de-escalate situations, not escalate them.
Unfortunately that’s not what they’re trained to do. They’re trained to rack up as many charges as they can.
thats basic cop training in most of Europe, Australia and Canada... Should be the basics in the US too
@@joels5722 No they are trained to de-escalate situations, it's called "Verbal Judo" however many officers choose not to, because their egos get in the way
They are trained to de-escalate. Some just choose to do the opposite.

The fact that they have body cams now and are still doing stuff like this is insane.
@@IdeologyOfPain The pattern I see is these people often think their camera is going to match their lies and they always seemed very confused when it doesn't. Morons..
@@chrisofstars I often wonder how much of their lies come from the same place as mistaken witness stratements--when there's a lot of stress, memories are not reliable.
However, there are enough times when the cop's story changes and is clearly being crafted on the fly to provide an excuse for the cop's actions.
The fact that so many cops don't seem to care that their lies and rights violations are being captured on film says to me that they know there will very likely be no repercussions for anything they do. They may get some free vacation time, if anything.
This cop was that scared over a traffic stop he was literally hyperventilating 😂
I think he was aroused and excited.
He should have been terminated on the grounds of falsifying his report alone! If I ever tried to lie to my bosses like that and got caught I would be fired immediately! I'm tired of law enforcement not being held to the very laws they claim to be enforcing!
He also clearly told his LT. that he was going to search the kid's car but later said he was doing an inventory for the tow for his BS arrest. Also a Texas boy here and this officer should be ashamed we don't treat people like this in Texas unless you are not born here and live here and don't have a clue we treat everyone like family. Just some family we don't talk about, this officer is not family for sure.

This officer blatantly lied to his Lieutenant, fabricated the police report and assaulted a member of the public.........he has a bright future as a cop.

'Sargent Savage, It's officers like you who give the Force a bad name!'
'Oh, Thank you, Sir.'

The successful road to police chief lol
He absolutely does, by all the wickedness displayed and the support by those who are there to keep check on these psychopaths!
This cops asks, "Your safety?" as if the citizen has nothing to worry about, and then he proceeds to demonstrate why the citizen should in fact fear for his safety.
This cop needs to find a different job.Somthing that is out of law enforcement. I should hope hiring practices in the future would require more mental health evaluations.
Very true. Good point……
For real. Stupid ass pigs. I wish one would.
very well said.
That was the second example. The first was approaching a normal traffic stop with hands on gun.
Always remember these five simple words, "I don't answer questions, officer."
Yup.
Been learning that one. Especially after the actions of a city officer in the next small town over from me.
The fifth amendment exists for a reason. USE IT.
The cop that was demoted resigned back in February and on may 7th was indicted for excessive use of force and can face up to one year in jail.

People want to claim the cop is rude as a reason for something, rude is subjective so just comply.
@@lt4753 But they didn't commit a crime and then used the bullshit arrest to search the vehicle without a warrant. How about police officers comply with the law? Not only that the Officer falsified evidence. What do you think about the violations against a citizen's rights, Adam?
@@dannacht6827 how can you have a bullshit arrest if there wasn’t a crime? You don’t know what you are saying.

You have no idea what you are doing or saying. Hey! If you can do the job better, go out and do it!
I just googled this officer's name and saw he resigned. I hope every arrest this man ever made is looked at very closely.

Totally off topic and irrelevant, but the picture that goes along with his F grade shows a guy I would be scared of meeting in a dark alley.

Temporarily demoted, but he's still a patrol officer doing the same thing. Why wasn't he arrested for falsifying documents / perjury and fired?
Because of police unions. All public unions should be banned.
Because the DA's and judges are all in on it too. As George Carlin said: "It's a big club.....and you ain't in it"!
Jails/prisons are tools, used for basically free labor. Look into how many companies use prisoners to make their products, and pay way less. Some cops help to put away innocent people or those not deserving of the time given. It's all a big scam with many involved.
Because he’s a democrat

Though the cop still seems to have his job. As long as laws like this are on the books, and cops like this are employed, I don't need to visit Texas. And I won't be doing so.
Sadly enough, that money didn't come from any of the officers involved, but from taxpayers.
@@megafonzie5541 Some judges in some jurisdictions are making the cops themselves pay. But it's unusual. The best possible outcome for taxpayers is usually that the liability insurance of the police department pays it. But that just raises the insurance premiums, which are again paid by taxpayers.

Paid for by the citizens [taxes] of that city. In other words... zero penalty to the PD.

“it’s rude” so was interrupting their day over a harmless turn but they stayed quiet
The guy rolled up his window because he was concerned for his safety. Then the cop showed the guy that rolling up the window was the correct move.
The officer initially resigned but was later indicted and could potentially face up to a year in jail. I am glad he’s going through this now. He fabricated the part of the encounter and deserves this

No question - aren't cops supposed to pick up on that, even from other cops?
If an authority figure ordered you to deliver a 400-volt electrical shock to another person, would you follow orders? Most people would answer with an adamant "no." However, the Milgram obedience experiment aimed to prove otherwise.
During the 1960s, Yale University psychologist Stanley Milgram conducted a series of obedience experiments that led to some surprising results. These results offer a compelling and disturbing look at the power of authority and obedience.
