All right. >> Put your hands on your back. Your hands behind your back. >> Why are you doing this? >> Because you have a what appears to be a weapon on you. Don't resist me. Don't resist me. >> Do me a favor. Put your hands on your head cuz now you got a gun today. >> Yeah. Keep your hands on your head. Both of them. >> Two men. One driving a van in Maryland with police or policeia markings and red and blue lights flashing. The other on a motorcycle in California, fully kitted out like a police officer running funeral escorts. At 9:45 p.m. on August 29th, 2025, a Montgomery County officer initiated a stop near New Hampshire Avenue and East Shaw Avenue in the Kohsville area. But what he found was not what he expected. >> I just pulled over a van that is advertising itself as police with red and blue flashing lights. Can you run Maryland 5? 11. Manosa. Manosa. Manosa. Hands up. Get your hands on the steering wheel. >> Get your hands on the steering wheel. >> Okay. >> All right. You being audio visually recorded. Why? Do you have a weapon in this vehicle? >> No. >> Why are you advertising yourself as police? You got to pick them up. Yeah. >> Why are you advertising yourself as a police vehicle? Give me the keys. Do not reach for anything else than what I tell you to. Give me the keys. >> Are you a police officer? >> I was. >> But you're not anymore. >> I'm a director for >> But you are not a police officer. >> I was. >> But you're you've got red and blue flashing lights on a van that says church vehicle. >> You you're using your red and blue you have police marked all over this vehicle. >> Yes. And we >> I work with the secretary of state, Maryland secretary of state. I'm the Spanish leazison. >> Okay. And we are Hakua fetu. You know who is hakua fetu? Fimble blue. We >> put your hands out the window. >> Put your hands out the window for me. >> Za's first response is to establish his credentials. Spanish Portuguese liaison, director for the Maryland Secretary of State, HAPCOA National Board Ambassador. The volume of titles is notable, but none of them explain why a civilian vehicle is operating red and blue emergency lights on a public highway. In Maryland, that is a traffic violation regardless of who is driving. >> You make that big mistake. >> Open this door. >> You make that big of a mistake. >> Take your seatelt off. Sure. >> Take your seatelt off. >> Step out of this car. Face away from me. >> Oh my god. >> Yeah. [cheering] >> Face away from me. Face away from me. >> Zona repeatedly tells the officer he is making a big mistake. That framing where the officer is the one in the wrong for stopping a vehicle with police markings and emergency lights is a pressure tactic designed to create doubt. The officer does not engage with it because he has his eye on something Zunka already lied about. All right. Put your hands on your back. Put your hands on your back. >> Why are you doing this? >> Because you have a what appears to be a weapon on you. Don't resist me. Don't resist me. >> It is a >> Don't resist me, sir. >> Oh my god. >> You make a big mistake. >> 315. >> You make a big mistake. It's a tear gas. >> 315. I've got one to 10. >> It's a tear gas. >> It does what appears to be a weapon. I'm about to get it off now. >> It's a tear gas. >> All right. Stop talking till I tell you to talk [ __ ] >> You need your backup priority. >> You make a big mistake. >> Can you open my trunk right there in my car? >> You want to see where I'm not getting a return? I'll read it to you again in a second here. I'm director for f my life. I don't need you to narrate everything. >> Have a seat. should be a guest. >> Oh my god. >> So he's he's he's got >> What are you doing? >> He's got his red and blues on with a weapon. >> Jeez. >> I tried to explain to the officer who I >> All right. And I asked you if you had a weapon on you. You said no. I get you out of the car. >> No weapon. It's a tear gas, man. >> It's a weapon. I asked you if had any new weapons. I also pulled two knives off of you and you had your red and blues on and you marked police in here. >> We are headquart. >> What the officer finds on Zunka directly contradicts the claim of no weapons. Two knives, a baton, a tear gas device. When asked if he had weapons, Zunka said no. His position is that knives and tear gas are not weapons. The officer's response to that logic is the clearest line of the stop. If you enjoy watching fake cops get exposed by the real thing, hit that subscribe button because these two impersonators are about to learn that flashing lights and a badge don't make you law enforcement. >> Your rights yet. Okay. >> So, you've been detained. >> Who else is coming to us? >> Just me. >> What's that? >> I mean, if you can find a serial number on there. So, let me let me get a picture of everything that I took off from there. Okay. Yeah, you got to send anything uh >> Yeah. Thanks, man. Zunker requests a supervisor and invokes his rights. Both are legitimate. What is not legitimate is the collection of items in that van. H A PCA, the Hispanic American Police Command Officers Association, whose name appears on his shirt, does not issue police style badges or official uniforms to its members. The organization confirmed this directly. The credentials Zanka was using to establish his authority did not come from the organization he was using to justify them. >> 315. Uh, can I just get a supervisor to my stop, please? Where's your driver's license, sir? >> It's in my back. >> In your back pocket. Okay. >> Yeah. Wasn't going to mess with it. I don't know how you operate that. >> No. I don't want that. Everyone's good. Have you seen my clean? >> Yeah. I mean, I took the video. >> Do you understand how this would draw my attention with your flashing red and blue lights? >> Okay. >> And when I asked you if you have any weapons on you, >> I don't. >> You said no. >> I don't consider that weapon. It's a tear. >> A knife isn't a weapon. Two knives aren't weapons. >> A tear gas gun isn't a weapon. >> You said you were a cop. You said you were a police officer, but you don't consider a knife a weapon. >> No, that kind of stuff. I mean, everybody have a knife. >> I don't know where. You must have been a cop in Candyland, dude. I don't know. >> You must have had it easy. >> Were you a police officer here in the United States? >> I was in Baltimore City. I had over 25 years working as a Spanish Portuguese with Baltimore City >> as a sworn police officer. >> No, no, no. I'm >> There we go. >> Yeah. How do we break this open? >> Uh, you have to just open in the back. >> Open the back >> right here. Yeah. >> So, I should [ __ ] that back. >> Yeah. And you push a little bit and that piece have to move it. I mean, for a long time I even don't use it. I mean, >> is this loaded? >> It's loaded, but I mean it's got right there. >> So, how do I how do I unload it? How do I make this safe? >> Just push it. >> Push what? >> The tire. >> You want me to pull the trigger? >> And that is coming up. >> Not really. I mean, just >> Oh, no. >> You want me to pull the trigger on what appears to be a firearm? >> It's just moving. And that's cageish. We're keeping the tear gas with you. >> Yeah. I'm not doing that. >> Well, you don't have to look very, do you? >> No. >> Okay. >> It's a tear gas. It's like if you got it in your carrier, too, because you go right. >> No, no, no. Stop. >> No, but that's that's this is my >> Okay, I'm going to flip it back over to what I was trying to do. >> Oh, but that's something they give me the police for fun. >> Okay. >> Has nothing to do with anything >> except it says National Police on it. >> They give me the holder. >> I got it. >> I I understood that five. I'm sorry. I may have missed it. Was there a supervisor coming out here? Sir, >> uh, yeah, go off the conversation. >> After further investigation, the pistol was stamped with the words toy gun. The magazine was loaded with caps. It didn't matter. A replica firearm inside a van marked police, fitted with emergency lights driven by a man in uniform meets the legal standard for impersonation in Maryland. It is not about whether any single item is real. It is about what the whole picture is designed to make you believe. And then his career history falls apart. 25 years of service that never happened. Alejandro Zunko was given citations for having flashing lights on a prohibited vehicle. Driving on a highway with visible blue device. Driving vehicle while displaying flashing lights, prohibited use of flashing lights. He was arrested and charged with impersonating a police officer. He was released on a $2,000 unsecured personal bond. He entered a plea agreement pleading guilty to driving on a highway with a visible blue light device. The impersonation charge and remaining light rellated counts were dropped. He was ordered to remove the word police and all unauthorized blue emergency lights from the van. The counterfeit badges, uniforms, and police paraphernalia were not returned. Both HAPCOA and Faith in Blue have not provided public comment on his arrest or whether his affiliation with either organization has been terminated. Our next case takes us to Riverside County, California on July 21st, 2025. A motorcycle running emergency lights in a full law enforcement uniform. Everything about the stop looked routine until the officer ran his record. >> Do me a favor. Put your hands on your head cuz now you got a gun today. >> Yeah. Keep your hands on your head. Both of them. >> Both hands on your head. Both hands on your head. Both hands. There you go. Clean it. All right, let's hop off the bike. >> I got to go this way. >> Name's Officer Riniki. So, a couple things why I stopped you. Okay. Number one, you didn't stop at Line in Oakland. >> Number two, you didn't stop at Line in Devonshshire. >> Hurry up. I'm burned out. >> Okay. Well, >> see where we're at. So, >> that's taser. Is this a real taser? >> Yes, it's a real taser. >> Oh, weird. Okay. And what is going on with your sidearm, sir? >> That's a taser, too. >> This is a taser, too. >> Got it. >> Okay, cool. We're just going to clear you down here cuz >> wallet's in the side pocket. >> You got what in there? >> Wallet. A wallet. Okay, cool. Any other goodies that I need to know about that are going to hurt me potentially? >> No, sir. >> No. Where's it? In this pocket? >> No. >> Fantastic. Do you have a guard card, sir? >> No, sir. No, but you're carrying a taser and an ass baton. >> I legal for me to carry a taser, but like I said, I do funeral concessions. >> Okay, >> that's not in California. A guard card issued by the Bureau of Security and Investigative Services is required to work as a security guard carrying exposed weapons. Without one, every item on Goodn Night's person that he used to justify his appearance becomes evidence against him. The funeral escort explanation does not change that calculation. over here. >> All right, come over here with me. Okay, here's what I want you to do. Okay, very gently, I'd like you to have a seat for me, okay? And I'll help you down. All right, >> nice and easy. Perfect. >> Am I under arrest? >> No, you're just detained right now, sir. All right, so couple issues. Like I said, the traffic violations that I stopped you for. >> Uh-huh. >> Okay. The tasers. So, the two tasers, the as baton, right? And you're dressing up like uh like a what? >> You said I do escorts. >> Okay. >> And they came back from one. >> Got it. >> Dress up like this. like this second time pulled over. >> Huh? >> This is the only the second time I've ever been pulled over. >> Second time you been pulled over? Okay, cool. >> He says it as though that is a point in his favor. What it actually establishes is that he has been doing this regularly and has yet to be caught. >> Yeah. >> Well, I appreciate you cooperating with me, sir. I see a black pistol. I see a taser, pepper spray, as baton, right? I see you fully kitted up like like you're a >> good [snorts] reason for that. >> Like a you're a police officer. >> Not subscribed yet? Go ahead. I'll wait. Awesome. Let's see how this one ends. >> There's a good reason for that. >> Yeah. Whenever we do the funeral escorts and stuff like that, we try to look as much as we can to your sheriff, police, whatever. >> Uh-huh. >> This main for reason is that people will respect you more and they'll listen to us. >> Gotcha. >> And they they do have more respect for a man in uniform. >> Sure. Sure. >> That's the reason our company has us wear these uniforms. >> Okay. So, you ride with a company? >> Well, I'm freelance, but I do ride for several different companies. >> You freelance? Okay. >> This is one of the uniforms they require. Yeah, >> that is a frank admission of exactly what impersonation law is designed to address. Using the appearance of law enforcement authority to compel civilian compliance is the definition of the offense, regardless of the intent behind it. >> Well, I'm going to do a uh quick inspection on the uh on the motorcycle. All right. Last I checked, these are uh well, you're the taser guy. You tell me. It's a non-guard card, nonBSIS license. >> There's they're not supposed to have this one. They can have a different one, but they're supposed to go through training for it, >> right? >> Uh they they work. They're they're reds, but he's got like a purple up front. >> Yeah. >> Like an X26 kind of >> gold. This is the original. >> Yeah. >> Mhm. I know. This is a This is a no no. >> Yeah, that's a no. No. >> Yeah. And this is probably too probably over the way. >> Are they negative? >> May not be. >> Yeah, they're not legal. >> You got to be certified in those. >> I am certified. I think >> you have a car. Who put you through instructor course? I mean the taser program. >> I did go through taser program. >> You did? >> Yeah. >> For who? >> Through uh San Berno. >> San Bernardino Sheriff's. >> No, it's through uh guard security guard thing over there. >> Okay. Do you have the card with you saying you have certification? >> No, they gave me a certification. And it's framed in nice home. >> He gave you a certificate. >> Yeah. >> You have something that is on you, too. >> I did not. >> You have your badge. >> It says traffic. >> Call the chief. He knows me. He'll probably verify this. >> Where'd you get that badge from? Who did you go? >> Ordered it. >> You just ordered it. >> The distinction between having completed a training course and being legally authorized to carry a taser in a nonsecurity context on public roads is significant. Neither the certificate nor the funeral escort work creates that authorization to >> get back to the station. Okay. >> Am I under arrest >> right now? Yes, sir. You are under arrest. >> Am I arrested for it? >> I just explained to you the tasers, the aspeton, all that stuff right now. Can >> you get a hold of the chief, please? >> I'm not going to call the chief, sir. >> I'll call him. >> Okay. >> Call the mayor. >> Yeah, please. That's fine, sir. Well, the law is what the law is. >> A call to the chief or the mayor wasn't going to make any difference. An offline record check noted Goodn Night was a convicted felon. Under California law, convicted felons are prohibited from possessing firearms, tasers, batons, and tear gas, regardless of their employment or any certificate they hold. Every item on him that day was illegal for him to possess. >> Don't work in the I don't work in the world of of favoritism and personal favorites and back door deals, sir. So, >> anything else is all that is perfectly legal. No, tasers and tasers and and this are certainly not legal and neither is that >> in companion with your drug registration for the county. None of that adds up to being perfectly legal, sir. >> Sure. >> We got you. >> I am a heart transplant patient. >> Totally understand, sir. You ready? Put your feet out in front of you. >> There you go. Stand up. >> Thank you. >> Where's your unit? >> Uh, is it a bathroom? Can we put them in yours? You mind? >> Yeah. Do it. Cool. >> Thank you, gentlemen. >> Oh, >> I'll let you pull it out. There you go. Do >> you have a chain cuff? >> No, we do not, sir. But it's not. It's going to be a short ride to the uh our station. Okay. >> Know where it is. >> Thank you. >> If I'm not mistaken, isn't that an infraction? >> What's an infraction? What I'm being arrested for? >> Um my partner will uh explain everything to you. I believe uh when it comes to weapons that you cannot have. Um it may be a misdemeanor, it may be a felony. Okay. All right. Me, sir. 76. Sir, watch your head. Watch your head. Go. >> Marshall Goodnight was charged with possession of prohibited weapons, possession of a baton and tear gas weapon as a convicted felon, and impersonating a peace officer. Authorities confirmed he is legally barred from possessing firearms due to his prior felony conviction. The investigation remains ongoing as police work to determine whether there are additional victims or related incidents connected to his actions.
