I swear to God, I'm going to get [ __ ] restless in the [ __ ] winter. >> I don't know. I'm off. >> I I can't move my arms anymore. That's fine. >> Watch your knee. >> Comb said it's Marissa's OVI. Yeah. >> It just shows. >> Um, so we had a warrant out for his arrest. Okay. He had a court date for uh driving under the influence that he failed to show up for. Okay. Um, so that's why we're here taking him into custody. Okay. You have any questions for me? >> I mean, my understanding was that nobody told him about his most recent court date, including the including his attorney. Well, that's something that's going to have to get taken into account whenever he talks to his attorney or sees a judge next. But he does have an active warrant out for his arrest right now. Okay. >> Where and who are you? >> We're Genanoa Township Police Department. >> Okay. >> It's where the warrants out of. >> So, where you taking them? >> To the Delaware County Jail. >> Delaware County Jail. >> Correct. Yes. Do you know if he has like shoes or anything that he would want to bring or because he's in his socks right now? >> I I'm I'm sure he does. >> Okay. >> Let me see if I can find >> Okay. >> Moving forward from this exact moment. >> How do I get out of >> So, you'll be taken to jail. >> Okay. Once you're once you're at jail, you have your you'll have your arraignment. >> You don't have Hello. >> Huh? >> You guys never work during the day, do you? >> Yes, that's uh We just got on. Third shift. Just got on. So, >> I know. And for some reason, we're the ones up there. You guys are the ones that always come. >> Yeah. Typically, when we get on, we check to see if there's any active warrants out that are close by and we'll go try to pick them up. So, >> you're saying the the daytime guys don't do that? >> Daytime guys are mostly busier with actual calls for service. the night kind of slows down so we can grab these a little more often. >> Well, let me grab your shoes. >> Okay. Um so I'll go double check on the warrant um to see what his bond is. Um I believe at the sheriff's office now you can bond out there. Um you should be able to pay it. I think it's like a $2,500 bond or something, but it's only 10% of that. >> Please let us know because he hasn't been notified that he had another hearing. So now he's being arrested for a hearing he didn't know about. >> Okay. Yeah, that's what he was saying. It sounds like there might have been some confusion. All it shows for us cuz we don't do anything with the court side of things. Once something gets put to like the court, that's all through them. The only thing that we see is there is an active arrest warrant for somebody. And our job is just to pick them up and take them before a judge, which is what the warrant says is just >> take somebody to custody, bring them before the judge. >> It's hard to show up for court when you don't know there's court. >> I understand. And that's something that I would definitely bring up. Sounds like he has an attorney. Um, absolutely. If that's something I would bring that up with him. >> So, where are you taking him to? >> Uh, they're just confirming the warrant once cuz our dispatch just has to send a hit confirmation for the warrant. Once that's confirmed, he's going to be transported to the Delaware County Jail. >> Okay. I have no idea where that is. >> Do you know where Delaware City is? >> Do you know where Delaware City is? Up north? >> Yeah. >> Down. >> Yes. It's in It's just like outside. It's technically in Delaware City, but it's it's up there. I can give you guys the exact address once we uh >> confirm with that. So, >> he needs a pair of shoes. >> I got some. >> Yep. Thank you so much. >> Um so, once that's confirmed and we take him, we'll give you I'll get you guys the address. Um but he should be able to bond out tonight, I would assume. If not tonight, then early tomorrow morning. So, >> yeah, we've heard about the whole bonding thing and it never happens the way you guys tell us. >> Yeah. So, with us, we get very limited information. And so a lot of the times it's very confusing because people think like all law enforcement has like the same jobs. So like the sheriff's office in Delaware County. They're in charge of like court services, protection orders, like the jail bonds. We have nothing to do with that. It only shows us like what the bond amount is or if there is a bond. Um but they're constantly changing like when people's arrangements are or how to bond out. So we only go based off of like the most updated information we have. >> I get it. I'm not with you. >> Yeah, I understand. with the justice system. >> Sure. And I understand. It sounds like there's >> I had a very negative experience with police and the whole system. >> I'm sorry to hear that. >> It's not you. It's and and so it's just very frustrating. >> Okay. Yeah. So, I'll go double check with him and then uh I'll come back and just you guys want me to knock on the door with the Yeah. I'll get you guys the address there and see if I can find any more information about if he's able to bond out tonight or not. Okay. >> All right. All righty. >> Thank you. >> I have a question. Why is he being arrested? He has a warrant out for his arrest. >> Okay. Well, why did the conversation start out about something else? Bes besides >> there was another altercation that somebody and this I was not on this call. This was a separate call that one of the other officers had. >> Uh there was a report of an assault. Um it sounds like it sent out of a road rage as far as I was told. Um they stated they it was this vehicle that he was driving in a male that matches his description. >> Mhm. Um, >> so was he being arrested for that? Was he being arrested for something? >> No, no, he was being questioned about questioned about that initially because that was another call for service that we were trying to identify if he was involved. Um, obviously he said he didn't want to talk to us about it. Um, so that's like there's nothing no charges from that stemming from that. That's not why he was arrested today. He was arrested for his warrant today. It was just by happen chance. There was another altercation that we got called to, I guess, within the past week supposedly involving him. But again, I have very limited information cuz I was not working that day, so I really don't know other than >> Yeah, I just I understand what's going on. >> Yeah, initially the there's another officer who um took that call for service um and according to the witnesses and the other people involved in that pointed out this vehicle and then the person matching his description. Um, again, I don't know the circumstances behind what it was. It just sounds like it was a road rage that may have turned into some type of assault. Um, so that's why he was being questioned about that, but we don't have it sounds like we don't have enough to charge him based off of that. But again, it's not my call for service, so I don't know >> where that specific >> Okay. I'm just trying to understand. He was questioned about that and then when he said, "I don't know anything about it." Oh, you're under arrest. Okay. So, why are you arresting Okay. So, I'm just trying to understand what's going on. Can you imagine my confusion? >> Oh, absolutely. >> Do you understand why I'm a little hesitant? I'm a little distrustful >> because you guys go about this in a really sneaky way. >> Don't tell me you don't because you did. You asked about one thing. You arrested him for something. >> Well, we were here for two purposes. So, I mean, >> see, you should have told him that from the beginning. >> Well, initially, if our interaction, it's it's hard to explain because there's specific ways we do things in law enforcement. No. When >> Yes. So there's So whenever we want to question somebody, it's not um >> Yeah, I I I get it. Do you understand? I'm trying >> I understand how from your point of view it would seem >> in a real kosher way. >> Okay. And I'm sorry that you feel that way. Okay. I'm sorry you feel that way. I've I've tried to answer all your questions to the best of my ability. Um you have. So, just before we take off, did was she able to get him his >> I have no idea. >> You'll have to ask him what >> the other >> phone number as well. Okay. >> Okay. >> All right. You're going to give me some sort of an address or something? >> I am. I have a business card here with the address on it. Um, so it's 844 US42 North and that's in Delaware City. Okay. >> Okay. Um, >> just since his girlfriend was one that hand me his phone and wallet, what's her name? I just have to log that. >> Haley is what her first name. Yeah, perfect. Thank you so much. >> So, so when did we get him? >> So, so right now we we've double checked on the warrant. So, it looks like the the warrant was not for his initial arraignment. It seems like he went to his initial arraignment for whatever this was. >> Yes, I was with him. >> Sure. So, the warrant when we looked more into it, it's it was put out by the Delaware County Sheriff's Office because he failed to appear for a change of plea hearing. Um, which is where I'm assuming he was pleading guilty to something, which is typically where it comes from. >> We never got anything in the mail. >> Sure. So, I would, and again, like I told you, we have nothing to do with >> court dates or anything like that. So, this is something that you guys need to talk to his attorney about or tell him to talk to his attorney about. >> Um, but since he does have a bond, >> um, he's going to get transported to the Delaware County Jail. Um, he has his phone so he can make a phone call. >> Um, he has his wallet. He just asked that somebody pay him $314, which is when I looked on our sheet, which that's the only information we get is it's a $2,500 bond, which is you pay 10% of that, which is $250, and there's a $64 state fee attached to that. So $314 supposedly, to the best of our knowledge, is what it will take to have him bonded out tonight. Um, >> and what does bonded out tonight mean? So, he would go to jail. He's going to get booked in. He's going to be given a new court date. He would pay this money. They're going to take the warrant out of the system. Um, and then he just has to show up for whatever new court date they assign him at the jail. >> Okay. So, I tonight >> tonight >> do I expect a phone call? Do I have to wait till I get a phone call from him to go pick him? I mean, how does that all work? >> Cuz I'm sure you're not going to bring him home. >> So, we would not be bringing him home. It just depends on how busy the jail is and how quickly they can process him through. If they're not busy, typically they start the processing paperwork and the bond paperwork at the same time and it should only take about an hour. But again, I have no idea how busy they are um or how long that process could take. Um he does have his phone, so I mean if it's about a 35m minute drive up there. Um, so worst case if he gets bonded out, he can just sit in the lobby for 30 minutes um until somebody picks him up. Um, but that's the mo like that's the most accurate information I can give you guys is it really depends. >> He's got his wallet. Can he pay his bond? >> Yeah. So they they should have a terminal there where they just accept payment right there and they he should be able to bond out like and start the paperwork at the same time as as processing paperwork. He shouldn't have to sit there too long unless they're slammed busy, which I I don't know. I don't work in the jail, so I don't know how busy they are. Um, it just it it fluctuates. I would assume at 10:30 on a Wednesday night, they're probably not slammed busy right now. Um, but it just depends. But worst case scenario, you could just wait for a phone call from him. He'll call you and be like, "Hey, I'm ready to be picked up." And he waits in the lobby until you guys get there. I appreciate you answering all my questions that with all my frustration. >> That's okay. I understand why it would be frustrating. >> Well, I don't think you do, but I appreciate you saying that you were trying to. [laughter] >> Okay. Um, is there anything else that I can answer for you guys now while I'm here? >> I don't think so. >> Okay. There is a phone number on the back of that card. Um, it's the non-emergency number. You can just call that and ask to speak with Officer Wilson if you have any questions about anything. >> Um, and I will do my very best to to answer those. >> Okay. >> Okay. Okay. All right. You guys have a good night.
