So, you physically go down to the DL office and reinstate your license. You owe money because you're not allowed to drive. I cannot let you get in a car and drive again. >> I went to the courthouse and she said they stop. >> I'm just telling you what's going on. Well, you can take it up with the clerk. >> Hey, Ron, come on over. >> Ma'am, I can't I can't help it if she doesn't do her job. >> I can't help that. >> You not understand what I'm telling you.

Go stand by your car. >> You're this close to going to jail. >> Don't give a [ __ ] Okay. >> We're this close to go to jail. >> Go have a seat by your car. >> On March 8th, 2023, a traffic enforcement officer in Orange County ran a plate. What came back was a suspended license and a stateisssued cease tag order, meaning the vehicle itself was flagged for seizure. A cease tag order in Florida means the registration has been flagged due to an insurance lapse or administrative violation. Officers are required to seize the tag and impound the vehicle. The driver does not get a vote on that. When the officer explains this, Jasmine's response is immediate. She went to the courthouse yesterday. She made a payment. In her mind, that closes the case. Here is the problem. A payment at the courthouse does not automatically update the state database. The officer system still shows a suspended license. four prior suspensions on record. Whatever she paid, it was not enough to clear everything. When Jasmine gets tired of waiting in the vehicle, she exits and approaches the patrol car. The officer tells her to get back in. She refuses. She tells him he is not her boss. He is not her dad. He does not give her orders. Under Pennsylvania versus Mims, officers may order a driver to exit or remain in a vehicle during a lawful traffic stop. That is a constitutional right belonging to the officer, not the driver. Her refusal is not a preference. It is obstruction. The officer calls for backup. As a second unit arrives, Jasmine gets back in the vehicle. The officer gives a final warning. She is this close to going to jail. She does not go back to her car. She drives away midstop. While the officers are still processing her documentation, the impound truck has not even arrived yet. In Florida, a traffic stop is not over until the officer releases the driver. The moment Jasmine drove away, the original suspended license stop, a misdemeanor, became a felony. Under Florida statute 3161935, fleeing and eluding a law enforcement officer carries up to 5 years in state prison. Officers pursued, they located the vehicle. When they approached, Jasmine did not comply. Officers attempted to take her into custody. She resisted. The struggle was captured on body camera. Officers alleged that during the takedown, Jasmine struck one of them. Under Florida law, any physical act of force against an officer during a lawful arrest satisfies the element of violence, regardless of injury that elevates the charge from obstruction to resisting an officer with violence, a separate thirdderee felony, a separate count, a separate penalty of up to 5 years. >> Get out of the car now. >> What is >> Get out of the car. Turn around. Put your hands on the back. >> What is your problem? >> Get out of the car. >> What is your problem? >> What is your problem? >> Relax. Relax. You are hurting me.

You want some? >> Yeah. >> Can you take his hand off? >> Nope. You're going to jail, ma'am. >> I didn't do nothing wrong. >> Well, unfortunately, when you fled from the shop, you did something wrong. When you didn't listen, you did something wrong. I was. >> So now now and then when you when you punched me when you punched me on the ground. Yep. You swung and hit me. Now it's battery. Leo. >> It's all on video. >> I don't know how to throw a ball. >> Okay. It's all on video. >> I don't know how to throw a ball. >> No, >> ma'am. It's all on video. >> You all right? >> Yep. You want to >> car? >> Am I able to call my mom? >> No, you can call You can call your mom after you get booked into the jail. >> Why would I arrest you? >> Uh because you ran from the traffic stop. >> I didn't ran from the traffic stop. I was at the red light. The light turn green. You over at the world got out the car yesterday. I was at the courthouse. >> Did you not just drive off yesterday? >> Did you not just drive off? >> No. Yeah, because to the courthouse. Why can't I go? I want >> Because when the traffic stop wasn't done and I told you that. >> Yeah, but I need to go to the car. >> It doesn't matter. You don't have the right to leave. >> You don't need to go there. >> You don't have the right to leave. >> I don't need to understand. And they tell you you're 5. Why would you call me 5 so I get arrested? >> I don't know. That's between you and them. >> Unfortunately, you'll go to jail today. >> She lied. >> Unfortunately, you go to jail today. You'll get booked in. >> Okay. So, when are you taking me there? >> When I'm ready. It's my time. I will get done and we will head that way. >> So inconsiderate. You hurt me. I'm bleeding. You hurt my both of my legs. >> And you say I punched you. I can't even throw a punch. >> I've never even like fought like that before. What are you talking about? You said complete control. You're trying to tell me 130 lb girl was being threw a punch where both her hands behind her back. That's a lie. >> Yeah, we're good. >> We're good. >> No, we're not. >> Just one just one on a traffic stop and she didn't believe her stuff was suspended. >> No, I believe you. Then she decided to jump when when her car was getting ready to get impounded. >> She lied. >> She jumped in the car and took off. >> Oh, >> so Ron was able to get here. I was able to get there. And then of course, you know, she wanted to fight and not go to jail. >> I cannot fight. I don't know how to fight. I'm only 130 lbs. I'm small. Can I fight? >> So, it was a good day, I guess. >> Yeah. >> For you. >> Nobody got hurt. No one. >> I'm hurt. >> I'ming hurt. I'm bleeding in my head. [laughter] >> If you can't give her a SC51, we can respond to people while man. >> Nope. You can't leave. We're going to the jail. >> Then let's go. What are you waiting for? >> We got to wait to truck and everything. >> I still got a stuff to do. >> After Jasmine is secured, she asks to call her mom. The answer is no. Not until after she is booked. She has been in custody for less than 30 minutes, and she is already asking how this happened. She tells the officer she was at the courthouse yesterday. She tells them she paid a lot of money she did not have. She tells them about her kids. The officer's reply is consistent throughout. It's all on video. The facts in the back seat do not change the facts on the body camera. She drove away from an active traffic stop. She resisted arrest. Officers say she made physical contact. Three felonies, each independent of the original suspended license. Jasmine was charged with resisting an officer with violence, obstruction without violence, and fleeing and eluding police. She faces up to 5 years per felony count. The case is pending at the time of this analysis. The officers get an A. They identified the violation through a routine play check. When the subject became argumentative, they did not escalate. They called for backup and gave clear warnings. Every legal threshold was met before any arrest action was taken. Under Pennsylvania versus Mims, their authority to control the scene was established the moment the stop began. They exercised it correctly. Jasmine gets an F. The original stop was for a suspended license, a misdemeanor. By the time it was over, she had added a felony flee, a felony resist with violence, and misdemeanor obstruction to her record. She had documentation from the courthouse. She had a story. What she did not have was the legal right to drive away before the officer was finished. Florida law does not include a courthouse receipt exemption for felonies. Lessons from this stop. Paying a fine at the courthouse does not immediately restore your driving privileges. Always confirm reinstatement directly with the DMV before getting behind the wheel. If your vehicle is being impounded, arguing with the officer on scene will not change the outcome. It will only create additional charges. And once a traffic stop has begun, you do not have the right to leave. That decision transformed a minor administrative violation into three separate felonies.

We'll see you in the next one. >> You wake throw a punch for what? To make you feel better? I did not throw no punch. How can I throw a punch? want to go to a courthouse to find out why this lady lied to me cuz she knew I would get in this predicament. Doesn't make any sense. I did my part [laughter] to the poor house to find out what's going on with my lady. And she lied to me. So my heart can't stop. I cannot afford to get that out. I have to take care of my kids and this is wasting my time and my kids time for no reason. >> And then he's going to tell somebody, "Oh, are you okay? What has happened to you? You got to go home, open up a cold beer, right? >> Who's going to feed my [ __ ] kids? >> Who's going to put my [ __ ] kids to bed? They're going to wonder where their mother is. But she went to pay her money to the courthouse when they want to go to Disney and I can't even [ __ ] take them because I have to work to pay these tickets from these red light cameras cuz I'm trying to go to work.
