When 200IQ Suspects Destroy Corrupt Cops

November 15, 2023 / 24:00

This episode discusses police encounters with suspects who know the law, featuring incidents involving police chief Michael Chini, officer Nathan Winters, and a teenager named Jack Franek.

The episode begins with the story of police chief Michael Chini, who confronted two teenagers, Parker Whan and Travis Krenn, for disturbing the peace. Chini attempted to intimidate the teens but ended up being charged with assault and battery after they recorded the encounter.

Next, officer Nathan Winters pulled over Tav Galanakis for having his bright lights on. Despite Tav's insistence that he had not been drinking, Winters subjected him to multiple sobriety tests, ultimately leading to a breathalyzer test that showed a 0.0 blood alcohol level.

The episode also covers an incident involving Jack Franek, who recorded the police as they attempted to arrest his father, Michael. The officers used excessive force, including a taser, but ultimately had no legal grounds for their actions.

Throughout the episode, the theme of individuals knowing their rights and standing up to police authority is highlighted, showcasing the consequences faced by officers who overstep their bounds.

TLDR

Police encounters highlight suspects outsmarting officers, showcasing legal knowledge and resulting in charges against the police.

00:04:36
prior to this altercation um I may have when I was walking up he challenged me to fight and dared me to come down okay
00:04:45
I came down he stood off on me and I did a pectoral jab with my flashlight okay okay okay thankfully the teens could
00:04:53

00:06:43
suspect for doing nothing wrong you ready yep okay you can relax um so I'm going to read your
00:06:52
Miranda okay when right now you have the right to remain silent anything you say
00:06:56

00:07:02
officer Nathan Winters for having his bright lights on and even though galanakis had a perfect excuse for it
00:07:07
the officer didn't care hi there how you doing sir good how are you good my name
00:07:11
is officer wers with the Newton Police Department the reason I pulled you over is cuz you have your bright lights on
00:07:15
yeah I have a I have a headlight out so I just get my brights on okay well that's not legal oh it isn't no yeah I
00:07:21

though you were like yeah you were wild has to be within 500 ft oh my bad I'm sorry and you're not supposed to have
00:07:32
your brights on in the city limit the officer started questioning procedure and asked for his license and
00:07:37
registration but some of his questions were a little bizarre you got your license registration insurance with you
00:07:42
yeah I got you is this your car yeah okay where you headed back home where's Home do you new to town or something no
00:07:53
you don't have anything on you no bombs guns drugs no bombs or no drugs okay let's go back here the officer noticed
00:07:59
tav's movements in the car and the smell of alcohol on him so he jumped to the conclusion that he had been drinking
00:08:05
although Tav insisted that he was sober officer Winters didn't believe him so the boy requested a breathalyzer test
00:08:12
how much have you had to drink tonight none what do you mean none I had nothing to drink
00:08:19
okay why would you uh why would your eyes be watery and bloodshot but Winters didn't want to give him the easy way out
00:08:26
I've had nothing to drink okay so your movements in the car with you fumbling over the registration yep
00:08:36
um kind of say otherwise all right and so does the odor of alcohol coming from your person great let's let's do a test
00:08:44
then we we'll get to the test I can't wait the teen asked for the test again because he was sure of himself he even
00:08:52
made a video mocking the situation and the officer so what happens if you know nothing pops up do you get trouble no
00:09:01
why would I get in trouble because you think I'm drinking but I'm not drinking can I record it yeah absolutely what's
00:09:08

00:09:24
we're about to find out Winters took Tav through a bunch of sobriety tests all of
00:09:29
them except for the breathalyzer all right so I'm going to actually have you stand right here is fine for now I'm

accusing him of smoking weed too but Tav caught on immediately when's the last time we smoked weed I do not remember
00:11:42
that tonight who okay well I was I think it's tonight I've had no weed tonight 6:30 what why do you think it's tonight

00:12:11
ais's arrest but he confessed something different on the phone here's my situation I stopped this guy for having
00:12:19
his brights on um he's he fumbles around with his uh registration three four five
00:12:27
times he uh um he bombed sobriety he I asked him I said I read Miranda PBT trip z um so

00:12:52
gakis was arrested and brought to the police station where he went through yet another test this time it was a drug
00:12:59
test and of course galanakis had nothing in his system we're going home tonight okay I don't think you're I have no
00:13:06

00:21:58
then you can search up my face and you can search up my record okay their only option was to detain the kid too and
00:22:04
threaten him with juvenile court but the officers knew he had zero charges so you
00:22:09
were the one driving up and down the street on the motorcycle uh I was on my gas bicycle okay that's gas powered
00:22:13
vehicle you have to have a driver's license um no you don't now when it's 50 cc and you have a permit for it and once
00:22:18
again jack knew his rights after a while the officers found out that Michael did
00:22:23
in fact have a concealed carry permit so he was allowed to own a gun as long as he didn't wave it around and nobody said
00:22:30
he did so the cops had nothing on him well if he didn't threaten anyone with it there's no I no it was just a concern
00:22:37
for to oh no absolutely but I don't think there's any reason to try right a war to get in the
00:22:43
house I'm going to arrest him for uh failure to obey a lawful command resisting uh
00:22:50
disorderly yeah disorders that's good cuz it got her attention too the only thing that was left was for the cops to
00:22:56
make up a story since there was was no crime obviously this is going to turn into something he's going to get you on
00:23:03
I'm going to do the up on um how the kid was being AAG how I checked his cuffs like his cuffs were tight but he has big
00:23:11
wrists you had click like once or twice in you click him anymore what do you do all right okay anyway you got take him
