      i mean lots of people record while being arrested. it’s actually extremely helpful to your case if they have no body cams (unless ur in the wrong) or in a state that doesn’t comply with public access requests like most. The officer technically was not allowed to do that and it was grimy, but I understand why he did, considering Bit Boy is just digging himself a grave halfway to China 😂 he still cant stop you from recording the interaction though.

      I have rollercoaster withdrawal ☹ it's been so long since the last time I rode one. I miss going fast. I miss having a reason to scream. I miss feeling weightless for just a moment.

    If the cop turned the stream off, that would technically be illegal search and seizure accessing his phone, I believe.

    the ones where he sits and speaks directly to the viewers.

    He was living like a king without the actual means to do so himself, he was only an employee of the Bitboy Crypto business. Everything he had is in the company name and he's got nothing now. No house to his name, no cars and I'd say not even a wife for many days anymore. Lets hope they can get him some mental help after the arrest because if not, he's gone and no telling who he's gonna take with. :/

    The joy of social Media, where not only can you see the depravity, lack of self-awareness and intense levels of self-absorbedness of so many humans, but also encourage and amplify it, merely by acknowledging it.
