I built the program. >> Yo, get back. Get back. Get back. >> Get back. Get back. >> Nobody gives a stop what you're doing. >> Get back. >> Did I stop? >> Joel, get back. >> Reset your brain right now. >> Joel, get back. >> You can tase me all day. >> I take two steps back. >> If you can take two steps back, I'll take two steps back. This [ __ ] don't [ __ ] hurt. >> 24 minutes earlier, officers arrived expecting to deal with a Corvette in a ditch. What they found instead was a driver whose story kept changing. >> You all right? >> Oh, we need again. >> Yeah. >> I'm doing something good. >> You okay? >> Said he is. >> You heard it all. >> Joel. Hey. >> My house is right here. I pulled out. My kids wanted some bowl sandwiches. I'm like, >> did you see what happened, sir? >> No. Did you see what happened? >> No. No. I just came up upon him. >> So, I was going to call his wife. He don't even have his phone. >> You heard her anything. Are you all right? >> No. >> All right, I'll see you. You're good. Thank you. >> Just so you know, I'm recording my body cam. All right. >> Of course. Rear wheel drive. >> Uhhuh. >> Kind of stuck. >> But to be honest, >> what h what happened? Which >> I came out and turned right. This Porsche. It was a Porsche and a Chevy that kept pushing. I'm like, [ __ ] >> This is Joel Bane, a military veteran and experienced fighter. When police found his Corvette in a ditch, Joel insisted another driver had forced him off the road. But within minutes, officers started noticing something that would turn this simple roadside call into something much bigger. >> Don't get me started. >> Okay. All right. Where's your Joel? I'm Tim. Nice to meet you. >> How you feeling? You have anything to drink or anything like that? >> No, I had uh I had a beer at like what, like 12:00? >> Beer at 12:00. >> But then I I had to do I had to do three workouts. Three workouts. >> Yep. Three workouts with three different fighters. If I sound lightheaded, this mean I need sugar. >> You said you feel what, >> dude? I'm lightheaded. I ate anything. I need sugar. Give me some olding booze in there for a long time ago because I take many fighters. >> Yeah. >> Many fighters down to events. What do they do? >> They calm the nerves. >> Okay. You haven't had anything though? Well, I told you I hugged it pretty coffee and the old I had like two shoes. >> That information may sound harmless by itself, but when police are investigating a vehicle that has already left the roadway, every additional detail becomes part of the picture. >> Two shirts. What time are we at? >> Time is right now. >> 6:00 right now. >> Three. >> 3:00. >> Yeah. >> Is that a lot for you? A little for you? >> I weigh 265 lbs. >> You're a big guy. What year is that bad boy? >> This is 2016. I'm extremely depressed to see her down here. >> So, it's a Z-51. She's fine. She's good. >> Yeah. I was going to say I think there's a little damage up front, but that's probably it. >> What? You're >> freaking me out. >> No, no, no, no, no. >> Joel isn't an ordinary person who suddenly finds himself in a police encounter. He has 25 years of experience across several styles of martial arts and holds a thirdderee JJ black belt and a grandmaster fifth degree ludal lever black belt under eighth degree grandmaster Hugo Darte. That doesn't change the rules of the investigation though. But it does become very relevant when the conversation stops being calm. >> No, Joe, listen. I'm just I'm just assuming look. I see the tree. That's why I'm guessing. I know. But can you show me my real >> guy behind me? I >> know. >> Show me. >> No, no, no. Look, I don't >> damn 20 years. >> No. >> Stop playing. >> Listen, your the front bumper's popped out, but that's it. >> No, I'm coming back up. I don't want to get ticks. All right. >> Are you serious? >> I mean, dude, I That's not bad. >> No, no, no, no. Joel, don't do that. Don't do that. Just leave it cuz we're going to yank it off anyway. >> Brother, please. >> Joel, I got a tow truck coming. >> I know that, but mying car. I respect you, but please shut the up. >> The vehicle itself doesn't appear to be the biggest problem anymore. And sometimes the words said during a police encounter become more important than the original reason officers were called. >> No, no, no, no, no, no, no. >> She has to be turned off. She can't just sit here and ride. >> All right, turn it off. >> What is it? Push the start. >> Yep. >> All right, perfect. All right, let's go back to the car. This tow truck's coming. >> Isn't this stupid? You said, "Hey, get some meatball sandwiches." >> Hey, listen. Your kids want meatball sandwiches. >> This literally is a meatball sandwich result. >> Do you like the meatball sandwiches though? >> They're good. >> Yeah, they're pretty good. What I'm saying is, dude, this is beyond obnoxious. I don't need this noise in my life. I've had enough lawyers in my life. If you know the guys, Ryan, especially the cops living in Medford, have learned to love and hate me. >> No one hates you. >> Joel clearly feels like he already knows the local officers and understands how police encounters work. Whether that confidence helps him or hurts him is another question because the officers aren't simply trying to win an argument. They're trying to finish an investigation. >> So you had they had me hooked hook line and singer, right? >> Yeah. >> So here's the deal. Okay. Like I said, I'm not going to lie to you. I'm not going to sugar. >> Right. There is a couple of things that we do have to follow through with today though. Okay. So you see right there. All right. So, nobody's going to jail today. Like you said, you're not going to jail. You won't want to go to jail. You're not going to jail. Okay. Jail is Burlington County, Camd County, way to >> If you guys want to take me to jail, you're going have to kill me today. Just so you know, you'll have to kill me today. >> We are not going to jail. You have to kill me. >> God's honest truth. You have to murder me. You understand? Some of them are done. Let's stop it right now. This is where the entire dynamic changes. From this point forward, officers aren't only dealing with a possible Dwey investigation. They're dealing with someone making increasingly aggressive statements about what could happen if they try to take him anywhere. >> This is not my fault. >> I'm trying to get my kids. >> Okay, >> let's do the walking turn first, though. Okay, so here's the deal. Okay, is >> here. Actually, we'll do it right here cuz I don't want nobody to get run over. Okay, for starting position, I just want you to get with your right foot and your left foot with your right heel touching your left hand. >> All right, stay in this position until I as I was nervous. >> Now we're going frisky. We're stealing you, [ __ ] You're going stupid fast. You're getting stupid fast. >> No, this is a stepbystep, >> but you know it's not going to work. >> Look at me. If you do it, what are we doing? If you refuse to do the tests, that's okay. Okay? We have to give you that opportunity on scene. If not, we are going to have to ride back to the police station. >> Field sobriety testing is one of those moments where an encounter can escalate quickly. Joel says his physical condition prevents him from performing certain movements. So, the officers give him another option. But instead of resolving the issue, the conversation begins shifting away from the test itself and towards something much more personal. You can't fight Joel. >> Cut out. >> This is my world. >> Joel, look at me. >> Calm the down. >> I can't cross my legs cuz my hips are blown out. >> So, let's do it without the food. >> You piece of [ __ ] >> We're not asking me do [ __ ] I'm a disabled [ __ ] veteran. Six [ __ ] combat tours and you're saying you can't cause you piece of [ __ ] >> We're not going to do that. >> Get the camera going, [ __ ] >> They're going. >> Get the camera going, [ __ ] They're going. >> We're not going to do that. >> No, they're not going. Your chest will turn off immediately. >> Miracle. Oh, your chest came turned off. You piece of [ __ ] >> We have another test that you don't have to do. The walk >> Joel is now making it very clear that he wants the encounter documented. That may seem like a small detail, but body camera footage can become extremely important when a roadside interaction later turns into an arrest. Okay. >> You want a wall sandwich [ __ ] at your six deployments? >> Two and a half years to Afghanistan. How you going to wall you [ __ ] >> If my wife beling rape your candy ass and I said what? Play with me. I'll give you a $10,000 challenge. 5 seconds. If you don't spank bang my hip, I'll [ __ ] give you five grand. Joel, you candy ass piece. It's cool that you have a holster. Do you know what you really have? Be a holster for me. Up. Shut the You're not in control, dumbass. Can I tell you something? You're too [ __ ] young. Shut the [ __ ] up. You're mying student, mother. >> Here's a lesson. Whether I [ __ ] any [ __ ] that doesn't know combat and self-defense, guess what? You're nothing but a holster for them. >> This is where Joel's confidence becomes a major part of the story. He believes his training gives him an advantage, and he's making sure the officers know it. But police officers aren't there to compete with him. >> You're nothing but a holster for them. >> So what are you going to do? >> Yes. >> Distance, right? >> I can close what? 5 m. In how long? >> You don't evening know how long. >> How long? >> [ __ ] >> You're aing idiot. >> How long? 5 m. >> On point. God bless you. >> You're going to use your pistol out. No, you're not. It's my pistol. >> None of that's happening. Would I ever do that? Not in a million years. But it's mine. It's mine. But guess what? I am a six-time marksman who's been through sniper school and everything else. >> When someone tells armed officers how quickly they can close distance and then starts discussing firearms training, the officers have to consider the possibility that the situation could become dangerous quickly. >> You really want to play that game? Are you thating stupid? >> Are you thating stupid? is I love me some confrontation. I've been in the cage. I've been in the ring. I've been in the combat sixing combat tours. [ __ ] you. You [ __ ] Yandall [ __ ] >> You're amplifying this [ __ ] Your job is to deescalate. >> I'm sitting here talking. >> Your job is to deescalate. I'm talking like we talked one day when you were standing up. >> You're mad at me cuz my hips don't work. >> I'm not mad. I told you you don't have to do that test cuz you can't do it because of your hips. Both sides now believe they're the reasonable one. And when that happens, even a simple conversation can become a standoff. If you're enjoying the story so far, hit subscribe and stick around for what happens next. Hey, say little tin being cut in half. And you're challenging me. GET THYING CAR OUT OF THE DITCH. Get the out of a tow truck and me. You have nothing to do with this. It's not a law enforcement issue. Get the [ __ ] out of here. You don't have a clue. But I have it memorized. >> Why? What is it? >> Because I'm smart. >> And I I don't doubt that. >> You don't have a clue. Where is it where you say you need them to do this, but they can't do that before you challenge me? >> That confidence becomes a recurring theme for the rest of the encounter. But knowing the law and successfully applying it during a tense roadside investigation are two very different things. And [ __ ] you. There was no accident. There was nothing. There was no incident. GET THE OUT OF HERE NOW. THERE'S NO ALCOHOL INCIDENT. THERE'S NOTHING. Get the out of here. You have nothing. You have nothing whatsoever. I have 500,000 fans. I'll get on my phone and call on a whole crew. I have a half a million fans around the world. Let's crank it up. You want to crank it up? >> No. That's it. >> Just crank it up. >> Get out of here, mother. >> Get back here. That's it. >> Joel stop me from touching my phone. You >> It's a phone you. >> I know it is. I know it is. I'm here. >> You said that's it. I'm sorry. Who said that's it? >> Out of here. >> We don't want violence. >> Nobody's broken a law. Get the [ __ ] out of here. >> Nobody's broken. What law did I break? >> So, you said you were drinking. >> What law did I break? You said you were drinking when you >> I just had two beers, man. At my house, >> right, >> Joel Academy [ __ ] B Academy. Shut the up, >> sir. >> Shut the [ __ ] I'm going to [ __ ] >> I feel go post your stupid ass motherucker. >> Two drinks is what? >> The legal limit isn't simply a magic number that makes every other fact irrelevant. Officers can consider the total circumstances surrounding the driving and the investigation. And here they have several pieces of information they're putting together. >> Make the asses of you. >> What's your name? >> Sergeant W. Batch 2578. >> All right, dumbass. So, you're saying I can't have two beers. >> Like I said before, >> 260 lb. >> Like I said before, you said you were drinking before you drove. You ran off the roadway. >> Two beers, >> right? Okay. I told you I got cut off. >> Two beers, one beer, two beers. >> I got cut off to provide safety for others. >> Okay. But we got dispatched here and we came in contact with you. >> At which point I do smell an odor of alcohol on you. >> The solution is what? >> The solution is to give you the breathalyzer, >> but that's at the police station. >> The breathalyzer is the no-brainer move and sounds simple, but they don't have a mobile version. And Joel has made it abundantly clear he isn't going anywhere. And when an officer tells Joel what the next step will be, Joel responds in a way that changes the entire encounter. >> I don't know. >> Mhm. >> Well, then you we're going to fight. >> We're going to fight. I'm telling you all right now, >> Joel. >> You be ready to get [ __ ] up. >> We don't want to fight all your arms. Don't leave me. I will twist your arms so far up your ass. I can't. I said I'll break your [ __ ] whole body first. >> Joel. Joel. >> You have no little [ __ ] Okay, we are not going to do this. >> You have no idea. She has no idea what I do. I am all right, does she? >> Yes. Everybody knows who you are. >> You You have no clue. You're getting closer. >> Joel, stop. >> Stop it, Joel. >> You're stupid. >> Stop it, Joel. >> Stop. >> Your boys are doing it, not me. >> Joel, you need to relax. >> Get the out of here. >> This is not what you want to do in the middle of tucking around in the town you live in. >> My bad. >> It's not. This is where you live. >> Is it what you want to do with me? here live. >> Dumb ass. I trained all this [ __ ] you're doing. I built the program. >> Yo, get back. Get back. >> Joel's biggest advantage in his own mind is experience. But police training isn't a contest against martial arts training. The officers aren't trying to prove who's stronger. They're trying to get control of the situation. And Joel has given them very little choice. >> Get back. >> Get back. Get back. Nobody gives a ting. You candy ass. >> Hit me again. >> Get back. >> Hit me. >> Get back. >> Joel, stop. >> It's called pain tolerance. >> Get back. >> Joel, >> stop what you're doing. >> Get back. >> Did I stop? >> Joel, get back. >> Reset your brain right now. >> Do you know where the I grew up, [ __ ] >> Get down on the ground. >> No. >> Get down on the ground. >> I broke no laws. >> Joel, we have to do this today. Okay. >> You're resisting. You went after an officer. Okay. >> I did not call deal with this. >> We have to deal with this. >> Joel, end this. >> Stop. >> No, you need to end this. >> I am going to end this matter running errand for my wife >> and we take a ride to the police station. >> You guys have taken a situation from me running an errand for my wife >> to maximum isolation. What's your purpose as a cops? >> The legal situation has now changed dramatically from where this stop initially began. And once officers believe someone is actively resisting, the conversation is no longer about whether the original call was worth investigating. >> You escalate. No. >> Joel, we want to go home to our families just like you want to go home to your wife. >> But you put me in jail for the night. >> You're not going to jail. >> [ __ ] >> DUI is a New Jersey Title 39. >> It's not aing DUI. >> Well, you can debate that. That's not for debate right now. >> Use from home. The home you can tase me. I love it. >> Do you think we want to do this? >> Care. Look me up on Google. >> I know you're legit, dude. >> Fiveing times I have broke all their arms and their faces. One of two of them had facial reants. >> But Joel, this is where we work every day and we like to keep it safe for everyone. >> Stop harassing me. >> What if I gave you a handshake personally that you will not go to jail? >> I don't [ __ ] care about your handshake. First name. >> Do you believe me? >> No. >> Have you ever No. >> Did I mistreat you and your mom when I dealt with that situation? >> No. But you came in very abruptly. >> Wait. You're watching but not subscribed to the channel. Hit that subscribe button to be sure not to miss the next one. Awesome. Let's get back to the story. >> There's no reason we can't talk. There's no reason we can't reach your resolution. But you want a confrontation. You want to escalate. >> I'm not escalating. >> But you are. YOU [ __ ] ARE. YOU DUMB. The more you keep going and the more you want to apprehend, the more you want to do, that's escalation. You dumb [ __ ] I understand that a kid's bike getting stolen in Medford is the biggest deal in your entire [ __ ] life. Youing punks. McDonald's shake your mouth. This is why the military hates you. >> You're literally developing a hate between you and the military and they're gonnaing destroy you >> cuz you can't do [ __ ] Most of you are still out of your [ __ ] You can't run 100 meters. We used to be a team. You're going to tase me all day. I don't give a [ __ ] You're not going to hurt me. >> I don't care. >> I don't give a [ __ ] about pain. I don't care. You have no clue. None of you better have this. You don't even know what the submission is. You old gay [ __ ] >> A taser isn't designed to win a fight or punish someone. It's a tool officers may use to gain control when other options aren't working. >> It was who the taser? >> You have to admit it cuz it was [ __ ] horrible. We used to sit in our office and tase each other for fun. It was a joke. It's a [ __ ] joke. Act upon it. Maybe move your [ __ ] fat asses in a pile of [ __ ] what? Handcuffs? Are you too scared of electricity? It's gone. You [ __ ] morons. Four to five seconds. Do you know anything? >> None. >> None. Okay. So, you're a badass. What the What is your purpose? What do you do? Protect and serve what? Protect and serve my car stuck in a ditch. >> You're a [ __ ] douche. >> Thank you, janitor. I'm not your candy ass [ __ ] We need to deescalate to stop escalating, >> right? >> But you failed to do that every single point. every single angle of the entire situation that you arrived. Therefore, you have failed as a police officer. And I'm assuming you're the superintendent or some type of what? Supervisor. I'm the supervisor. >> Well, you failed miserably. You should be fired. >> At this point, the argument about whether Joel broke the law isn't going to be settled on the roadside. That's what courts are for. The officer's job now is to complete the arrest, transport him, and deal with the Dwey investigation through the proper process. >> Want to bet? >> She can bet me. Princess Anastasia, come over here. >> She's not going to come over here. >> Want to bet? >> No. >> Bet me. >> I'm not betting you. >> You cannot tell do that lawfully. >> You're breaking the law. >> How about we get the [ __ ] out of the road? Wouldn't that be smart? >> The only way we're getting out of the road is when you sit down, you >> stupid mother and put your hand. >> I will agree with you. If you get the out of the road, you inconsiderate pieces of [ __ ] >> Joel needs to be transported and his wife needs to know what is happening. But after everything that has happened, nobody is pretending this is a normal roadside stop anymore. >> Are you serious right now? >> What do you guys want? >> Joel, put your hands behind your back. >> What's that? >> Can you take my phone? >> I'm not going to hurt. >> Back off. Back off and be polite. >> Do you want two cuffs so your shoulders aren't >> off and reset? >> All right. When you're ready. All righty. You ready? Can you >> do you want a second set of cuffs to make it a little less likely for you? >> Here, I'm going to give them to the officer. >> Cuff got torn. Absolutely. >> You just have De Biosi with you. Who you actually like? >> Despite everything Joel has said, the officers are still taking his physical condition into account. >> All right. >> Yeah, man. >> Thanks, sir. Here comes the other handcuff. >> [ __ ] grab your other hand. All right. And separate so I don't hurt your shoulder. I will get your wife a meatball sandwich. >> Don't. >> Okay. >> She'll probably punch me. >> Well, it's okay. I can take that. I'd rather get punched by her than you personally. >> I wouldn't punch you. I know. You know me better. >> I know. >> But we also don't want to hurt you. >> But there's also what you guys aren't responding properly. You guys are not responding properly. >> We can address that a different day. >> And there's so many ways you can do better. >> Okay. And you're not going to deal with anybody nastier than me as far as someone that's going to hurt you. I don't want to hurt any of you. >> Joel, I'm going to search. >> But I also don't want what? >> I don't want to have to hurt anybody else. >> So there's certain rules and regulations, right? >> We'll try to get you in, process you, give you the option to blow, and we can get you home. >> Hold on. This is based on what? Breath. >> Yeah. We're go back. We'll give you the option to blow. You can refuse if you would wish, but the state requires you to. Listen, we'll read the literature there. Not out here. >> Hold on. I will were ask right now cuz I have every legal right. If I refuse to blow in the breathizer, what happens? >> You'll be you'll be issued an additional summon for refusing to blow into the machine. >> That's fine right now. >> Just tickets. Okay. >> I refuse right now. Take a seat right there. >> Joel was ultimately charged with aggravated assault on an officer, resisting arrest, and driving under the influence. He was also cited for refusing to submit to a breathalyzer. So, what do you think? Did the officers show enough restraint during this encounter, or did the situation go too far before they finally took control?
