00:00:00
when dumb cops make mistakes the consequences can be fatal don't ever touch me again get the off we're about
00:00:08
to take a look at four cops who messed up so bad they ruined their own career in minutes there are several ways that
00:00:16
cops deal with people who are drunk and often they can turn a bad situation around with good policing and the right
00:00:22
attitude but it seems that this cop forgot all of his training except for one specific part Sergeant police had
00:00:28
been with the Sunrise Police for 20 years and was about as experienced an officer as you could get which makes his
00:00:35
actions during an arrest in November 2021 even more confusing when he arrived on the scene he found his fellow cops in
00:00:42
the middle of a struggle get in the car no he doesn't want in a car get in the car get in the car all right I'm getting
00:00:57
in get your feet in the suspect had been arrested on Sunset Strip after being accused of punching another man and
00:01:03
officers are trying to get him inside the patrol car but the suspect isn't playing ball so Sergeant police decides
00:01:09
his 20 years of experience is enough to allow him to push other officers aside and take charge hey hey hey look at me
00:01:17
look at me look at me you want to play games play with the wrong mother you got do man you going to me me look at the
00:01:27
suspect decides to comply when the extremely aggressive officer steps in and you'd think that'd be where the
00:01:32
story ends but for some reason police just gets angrier and angrier until one Noble cop decides that they just can't
00:01:39
stand by and watch any longer you ever get disrespectful with offic I will remove your from your
00:01:48
body what you got do what you got police had to have been having a horrible day as it was his threats to
00:02:02
remove the suspect's soul from his body that prompted the young female officer to pull him back this clearly angered
00:02:09
him even further leading to him grabbing her by the neck this was not only illegal and a huge overreaction but it
00:02:15
was also terrifying for the rookie on the receiving [Music] end we C yes sir and I'll see you in about 5 minutes
00:02:29
stop pulling hand somewhere right here police was eventually charged with felony battery
00:02:37
of a police officer which comes with a heavy punishment predictably he decided to retire from the Sunrise Police in
00:02:43
November 2022 and as of this videos upload his case is still ongoing this is just one of many examples of how cameras
00:02:51
are essential to police work but it turns out cameras are not only used to help catch criminals but they can also
00:02:56
be used to catch dumb cops in the act this is the dash cam from a man in seab Brook Texas he has just been pulled over
00:03:03
by a patrol car and decides to turn his own camera towards him to record the action in all its corrupt
00:03:13
Glory why do you pull me over I'll tell you that if you roll it down why can't you tell me now because the reason I
00:03:20
pulled you over is you yelling something on your caror so what huh so what that's
00:03:25
why you pull me over because I'm yelling I don't know if you need a help or anything oh I don't need help thank you
00:03:29
let me see your driver license I don't need help you might be wondering why the driver is being so defensive it all
00:03:35
started a few seconds earlier when the driver yelled an exploitive at the officer from his vehicle despite this
00:03:40
not being illegal the officer decided to follow him and when the driver signal to
00:03:44
turn he was pulled over it's already cracked well it doesn't matter here I don't wish to answer the question
00:04:03
students I did when you demand identification I have to display this that's what they
00:04:11
told me in the class that's what the law says there are two major mistakes that the officer has already made firstly he
00:04:17
claimed he had pulled the driver over for shouting out of his car window but then claimed to have pulled him over to
00:04:23
check if he was mentally okay most people know that free speech is protected under the First Amendment and
00:04:29
passively yelling curse words is completely legal in America but when the driver challenges this the officer
00:04:35
suddenly changes his story and claims he pulled them over for making the turn the
00:04:39
turn was perfectly legal making this stop completely unnecessary for a totally different reason luckily the
00:04:45
driver is well aware of this and lets this dumb cop show himself up on his dash cam for the whole world to see iell
00:04:52
on your breath no you don't how do I know because you can't smell my breath smell something oh really let's see
00:05:00
I don't think so yeah where you coming from huh where you coming from you saw me where I was coming from are you done
00:05:07
with this I'm done with that yeah all right cool where are you coming from I don't answer questions I've already told
00:05:13
you let me know when I'm free to go also what is your name your name Sheriff that's your name Sheriff I I I'm
00:05:23
not familiar with the English alphabet sir okay can I have a can can I have an incident number please oh a ticket a
00:05:32
ticket okay now the cop is playing hard ball and refusing to give the driver his
00:05:36
name but once again this cop is completely incorrect as Texas law requires an officer to provide their
00:05:42
identification when asked by a member of the public I have you here okay I don't
00:05:48
want you exiting the vehicle because you have a weapon in the car I exit did I exit the vehicle did I exit the vehicle
00:05:56
give your heads up did I exit the vehicle hey can I you do have a dash cam right very good you can't just pull me
00:06:03
over because I said the police I hope you realize that stupid is that your current address
00:06:09
1622 is that a question yes sir is that your current address do I do I answer questions okay I'll just assume that's
00:06:16
incorrect and why would you do that question did you read my address on the driver license didn't have have
00:06:24
apartment number on your dri of course he does let me you have already seen it I've already complied with that part
00:06:33
okay I'll be right back I say that I've never met anybody quite like you that would yell at an
00:06:38
officer doing their job let me understand may I ask you a question you can see by the body language of the
00:06:46
officer just how defensive he's become over having his authority challenged he's tried every trick in the book to
00:06:51
try and outsmart this driver but nothing's working leading to the worst mistake of the whole interaction
00:06:57
questions on there there's the address yeah no I have a question can you get your supervisor here please is the stop
00:07:04
over over you all right well you said the stop is over right okay I'm not I'm not getting out I
00:07:17
will okay there is no need to draw your weapon man are you drawing your weapon I didn't get out of the car you
00:07:26
told me that already a warning for what failed to signal with turn indicator within 100 ft when the officer said the
00:07:38
traffic stop was over he also ordered the driver to stay inside his car which he complied with you have to wonder
00:07:44
whether this cop can get anything right and after this stop was over the driver filed the complaint and is also due to
00:07:49
file a lawsuit if you thought that cop was clueless these next two officers are so dumb they allow themselves to be
00:07:55
recorded discussing how to lock up an innocent man I'm on a side of the road legally parked with a sign which is
00:08:03
protected by the first amendment when officers see a man holding up a sign on the side of the road in March of 2022
00:08:09
they decide to pull over and check it out the man named Jonathan was warning drivers of the speed trap that they were
00:08:15
about to drive fast these two officers took offense big time I'm going to do it right here where
00:08:21
I'm at not I have drivers coming up to me telling me that you're jumping out and trapping because apparently they're
00:08:27
erroneous I don't give a what some else says what did you witness nothing of the sort so keep your
00:08:35
to yourself pal traffic fins make up a percentage of police department's budget and these Delaware cops didn't want
00:08:40
Jonathan to stand in their way of that crucial source of income but Jonathan isn't accepting their claims that he's
00:08:46
been walking into the road and STS his ground you keep saying jumping in traffic when did you witness this
00:08:53
offense you came to me you came to me you came to me you came to me just tell me that you're just so they want to lick
00:09:03
your boots let them don't put your hands on me but what one officer does next may have
00:09:10
completely violated this citizen's right to express himself don't put your hands
00:09:15
on me do not give me my property back you piece of give me my property back you see this
00:09:26
you Tyrant piece of what are your badge numbers step back okay don't walk no you stole my property did you see
00:09:35
anything in my hands stole your property have a nice day Jonathan goes on to tell
00:09:39
the officers that he's going to be right back here with a new sign as soon as he
00:09:43
can as he drives away he makes an insulting hand gesture towards the cops and of course they pull him over for it
00:09:50
what happens over the course of this traffic stop is not just dumb it's downright corrupt you're stopping me for
00:09:55
constitutionally protected speech right because you had your finger your hand out the the window this is what I did
00:10:01
you got a problem with that listen to me listen no no all right listen goly conduct no it is not that is that is
00:10:08
called freedom of speech if you are out in the public you are out in the public and people see you no it is not here
00:10:15
here's what's going to happen license please here what's going to happen I want your supervisor please I am the
00:10:20
supervisor I am the supervisor and that's why I'm here both officers seem to be stumbling over exactly what they
00:10:26
have pulled them over for and it's honestly starting to look embarrassing at this point and I'm going to take you
00:10:31
to court here's what I'm tell take it to court that's what I want you to do that's what I want I want you to take it
00:10:36
to court so but before we go any further you're pulling me over for what because
00:10:40
you conduct you had your finger disly conduct here what's about to happen you're about to be arrested again for
00:10:46
resisting arrest no I'm not resisting anything yeah yeah right now you're right now you're you're being detained
00:10:52
okay you're being detained you why I stopped you already sir for putting my middle finger up that's correct correct
00:10:57
exactly you extended your arm out the window no I have my middle finger out the window okay let's get your let me
00:11:02
get your IDE you had your middle finger out the window it appears the officers are trying to arrest him on any charges
00:11:08
they can and when that doesn't work they resort to dirty tricks the next thing you do we're going to take you in we're
00:11:14
going to tow the car we'll call uh Social Services for the kid oh so now you're threatening now you're
00:11:19
threatening my child it's not threat it's a promise you're threatening my child now I'm telling you what's going
00:11:24
to happen you heard the officer right he's just threatened to get Social Services involved and have Jonathan
00:11:29
child taken away from him but what makes this case even more shocking is the fact
00:11:33
that these two cops plan to lock him up whatever it took and it was all recorded
00:11:37
on their own dash cam I'm telling you if you put your arm out the road your hand
00:11:42
out the road and you like with a middle finger you could that's like a isn't that
00:11:48
I'm I'm pretty you sure about that middle finger Ian he pulled over giv the middle
00:11:58
yeah giv yeah for giving a middle finger so you can't do that Geto yeah it's going to get I told him that's going to
00:12:05
get thrown out but it it's just going you know that's going to cause the problem even after they are told by
00:12:09
their supervisor that the charges will be thrown out they still have a grand plan to put Jonathan in handcuffs right
00:12:15
right something like that that'll fly unforunately I mean yeah you can't we can't pull people over we can't ride up
00:12:22
tickets for us [ __ ] off giving us the middle finger and stuff like that yeah you know that's that's
00:12:29
right to do so yeah but all right I'll do some more work up on this guy and uh I'll uh I'll pass it on and then
00:12:39
number two yeah he you know we have no real basis yeah so he's gonna do something stupid one day where we are
00:12:47
going to be able to lock him up for dis ho conduct or and and I just wish we had
00:12:51
the witness and and even had it on video in the end Jonathan filed a lawsuit against the officers saying they
00:12:58
violated his constit tional rights by preventing him from warning motorists about a speed trap in September 2023 he
00:13:04
won the case and was awarded a $50,000 settlement sum nobody likes bad cops so it's even more satisfying when a good
00:13:12
cop takes one down which is exactly what happened next on January 14th 2021 a resident of Harnet County North Carolina
00:13:20
reported her dirt bike as stolen what followed was a series of events that led to an innocent 14-year-old being treated
00:13:26
like a dirty criminal okay do me a favor man go and put your hands on back for me
00:13:31
okay 16 days after the dirt bike was reported missing it appeared on Facebook Marketplace and when the owner saw this
00:13:38
they set up a meeting with the seller in order to catch them out when they arrived they were met by 14-year-old
00:13:43
Malcolm who did indeed have their dirt bike they agreed to a deal and told Malcolm that they were headed out to an
00:13:49
ATM machine to get the cash out when in fact they were calling 911 the problem here was Malcolm was completely innocent
00:13:56
and had bought the dirt bike off the true criminal in good faith without realizing it was stolen he had made a
00:14:01
hobby of fixing up bikes and selling them on an impressive hustle for one so young so you can imagine his surprise
00:14:07
when instead of finding himself in profit he found himself in handcuffs okay what's your name Malcolm I have
00:14:15
what's your last name Malcolm Ziggler yeah okay you got your ID on you no I do not okay but that wasn't us riding We
00:14:21

00:14:27
L just came by here who's that guy who's that guy running down the street that's his friend they
00:14:34
say somewhere up there okay give me a favor man go and put your hands back for me
00:14:39
okay I you're in possession of a stolen motor vehicle what what DS you want to go and verify
00:14:47
that for me what do me a favor man just um come to my car right over here okay what
00:14:53
the can I get the bill of sale and show you that I bought it yeah yeah we'll get
00:14:57
all that taken care of man but what I when I need do just hang tight for me right here okay the officer places him
00:15:01
under arrest without verifying any of the facts he had no way of knowing if Malcolm was in fact in possession of
00:15:08
stolen goods and spent no time attempting to hear his side of the story well I'm going to work on getting
00:15:15
you out of those soon okay just keep cooperating with me I appreciate it and we we'll get everything squ away sto
00:15:20
before sir I'm trying to find this bu and and I'm not saying that you stole it right now what we've got is we just got
00:15:27
a stolen motor vehicle um we're not saying that you stole the vehicle okay I'm not saying that at all okay but it
00:15:33
it still is a crime to be in possession of a stolen motor vehicle the officer claims it is illegal to be in possession
00:15:39
of a stolen vehicle which may be true in most cases but not here if a suspect willingly buys or owns an item that they
00:15:46
know is stolen then that is a crime but since Malcolm was ignorant to this fact he was totally innocent and this arrest
00:15:53
could prove to be extremely unlawful I can tell you I can show you if you can go on I can you go on my and I can show
00:15:59
you exactly where I bought okay we met at the lington Presbyterian Church okay if you know what that is
00:16:08
okay toian well your dad's coming over here right now it about 8:30 when we met hey how you doing sir
00:16:15
hey um Dad I need that sale reason all this is going down um that vehicle been stolen International crime information
00:16:21
center do you have the bill of sale B cancer I don't I don't know where it is it's either in my room or in the garage
00:16:30
as Malcolm's father tries to find proof his son bought the bike legally two other responding officers begin to voice
00:16:36
their concerns over what is happening in front of their very eyes is he or 1095 from what I heard 1095 and that was
00:16:43
before I even verified the van okay but that's why my first thing I asked that's
00:16:49
that's what I now I'm not 100% certain but I believe I heard 10 I heard essentially 295 before I was even able
00:16:56
to verify the van eventually one of the decides to intervene is he detained he's
00:17:02
detained right now because he is he's 14 yes okay so I already explained to him he's detained right now
00:17:08
I told him that so why is he detained because that's a stolen under vehicle okay so I mean dig verified the VIN
00:17:19
number right did you is that before all that that you verified before you I detained him and then ver asked if he
00:17:26
was 1095 or detained he's detained okay so obviously he's a juvenile right yeah ain't no sense having sit in the car
00:17:33
tent with handcuffs on where you ain't if he was 18 and you might be taken on jail for possession stolen
00:17:42
property different but we you ain't going to take him Joe right it's going to be a petition M the officer clearly
00:17:48
knows what he's talking about when he explains the difference between detaining an adult and a child and after
00:17:54
urging his fellow officer to reconsider his position the arresting cop finally comes to his senses after finally being
00:18:00
released Malcolm found the receipt for the dirt bike and no further action was taken but his family later released a
00:18:06
press conference where they asked for police reform in the wake of another juvenile suffering mistreatment at the
00:18:13
hands of law enforcement if you enjoy true crime videos like this make sure you're subscribed to see more
