police officers aren't allowed to use excessive force but what happens when they get too aggressive with helpless disabled individuals to in here are two insane examples of police officers being charged after assaulting disabled people the story started in August 2022 when Albuquerque Police Department officers Kenneth skin Marcos Flores and Gregory Regan responded to a reported shoplifting incident at a Target store officer skin was informed by a Target loss prevention employee that another individual Matthew mcmanis might be involved there was a dispute regarding whether the employee accused Mr mcmanis of shoplifting or merely requested his removal from the store let's take a look at the footage go gra all your M ahead put your M [Music] us coming us go ahead and gra your money walking out okay back the officers informed Mr McManus that he's being criminally trespassed from the store due to taking too long to complete his purchase while it's uncertain whether taret Target requested his removal if they did it could potentially violate the Americans with Disabilities Act Target might have accommodated Mr mcmanis by offering Assistance or allowing more time for his purchase Court's decisions on whether officers should provide reasonable accommodation in such cases vary and can be complex let's continue and see what happens [Music] not down [Music] I all right you got an idea on man not giving you any idea if you don't identify yourself under arrest okay you're not police yes we are no you're not you're security so what's your name man not your business all right then you're under arrest go put your hands up behind your back you're refusing to identify yourself correct Who you calling man you a even you he's call911 that's what he said anyway say just go and put handcuff cuz he's refusing to identify himself okay hold on I was just paying I was just had my stuff locked in in my P pack and the security CS came and I I didn't take more time than anyone else the other ones before me so now you're going to be charged take with concealing identity resisting officers okay no no I and you're going to be trespassed so you can never come back here again okay Officer skin leveled charges against Mr mcmanis including concealing identity and resisting officers and issued a trespass notice Banning him from the Target store private property owners typically have the right to limit access as long as these restrictions are not discriminatory even in public accessible places of Commerce this implies that someone can be arrested for trespassing if they refuse to leave a store after being told their permission to be there is revoked though concerns arise about whether Mr mcmanus' exclusion may have been discriminatory no that's not right I was just pay my [Music] things I didn't know you were you were are you a police officer yes we told you that already I didn't see your beds okay well we told you right security guard save their police officers we identified ourselves as please to the reason to talk to you was they didn't want you in there no no more okay so we have the reason we asked you your name you didn't give us your name that's the they didn't want you there and they have that right as the business not to want you there anymore we're going to help you stand up we're going to put you in that Patrol unit over there okay sound good no it don't sound good well that's what's going to happen want to help me please no one to the phone man I didn't see their bre I didn't know there police officers well everything's on camera just so you know you became very uh resistant in the store and out here I'm done explaining to you that's fine you're under arrest you're under arrest okay that's not changing now for what concealing identity resisting officers okay I didn't know you were police officers I told you that's your own fault you didn't listen okay I can't help you with that you don't want to listen I didn't believe you police off stand up you didn't believe I in this situation despite Mr McManus repeatedly mistaking the officers for security guards officer skin remained determined to charge him with concealing identity and resisting officers Mr mcmanis could defend against the resisting charge by emphasizing his sincere belief that he was dealing with store security he might also contend that his resistance stemmed from the officer's use of excessive force justifying his nonviolent physical response the officers May argue they had grounds to detain him due to his resistance but with doubts about the legality of his removal from the store Mr mcmanis could assert they lacked Reasonable Suspicion for the detention due to their potentially unlawful actions now let's see how things play out don't resist anymore stop just walk man no just walk no I didn't do nothing I was just about to pay my my money and in the automated system I putting my money in I didn't do nothing we told you what's going on stop I didn't know with you explain separate your feet we told you who we were I I security guard tell me police well then sorry those security guards told you that but then we are actual Law Enforcement Officers what's your name tell me your name you going to separate anything then not I get a lawyer that suck to suck man no no I I have the right to remain silent not when it comes to your name no no that's that's you do but that's why now you're going to deal for concealing identity so Matthew here's what you're under arrest for okay concealing identity and resisting invad distruction officers okay don't catch a felony charge by hitting me or anything step in all I was doing it was pay for my things yeah you had to cut off one my fat packs you know you saw how hard it is to get my money out and I was trying to get my money out and I got it all out and then then you came and I thought you were security guards Mr mcmanis was hospitalized after his arrest and later faced charges of concealing identity and resisting an officer which were dropped due to his incompetence to stand trial officer skins involved in in the arrest was fired by the Albuquerque Police Department on February 3rd 2023 for his actions in this case and a separate fatal shooting officer skins has appealed his termination claiming a misunderstanding with Target staff led to Mr mcmanus' arrest the New Mexico attorney general filed charges against officer skins on July 13th 2023 including false imprisonment battery perjury and making a false report related to Mr mcmanus' arrest with these charges still pending in Dayton a police officer's body camera recorded an incident where some cops started pulling a disabled black man out of his vehicle I cannot St out of the Carnot St out car you got in the hey bro can you can you come down the street to um Ferguson and gr the police just pulled me over and they trying to make me get out the car and I'm telling them I'm a PA of police I can't get out
