You'll have a right to have an attorney present for any questions that you have. If you can't afford an attorney, one will be appointed to represent you without any cost to you. Do you understand your rights, sir? >> The officer takes a closer look at the badge, turning it over to figure out what it actually is and where it came from. The man says he's had it for a while and claims it's an old Elvis Presley item. But that explanation gets harder to accept when they see the rest of his gear. He's carrying a body camera, handcuffs, a duty belt, and a firearm. So the officer isn't looking at the badge by itself, he's looking at everything together. And that's what raises the concern. The man has several things that look like law enforcement equipment, but doesn't have the credentials officers would normally expect. Then the firearm creates another problem. The officer says the man doesn't have a valid FOID card, giving deputies a separate weapons issue to investigate. But there's more. Officers discover that this isn't the first time his behavior has raised concerns about possibly impersonating a public official. Now the badge, the police-style gear, the firearm, and his history are all starting to connect. What looked like one strange item is becoming a much bigger investigation. And that's when this badge check takes a serious turn. Because the officers now have much more to explain than just a badge.
