Take me to jail with her. I actually want to go to jail with her. She's not going to jail. You're going to jail. I want I want her to come with me, though. I love her. Okay, well, what's your name, dude? Uh Real G. >> What's your name? Real G. I don't want to Real G 699, Ben. Do you have your keys in your pocket? his phone number so we can try and get a phone number. I can ask him. >> is apparently Ben. She she just met him last night. >> Do you have a phone number for him or anything? She just met him last night. >> yeah. Do you have a phone number? No. You have nothing at all? >> Nothing. Okay. She literally just met him last night. Okay. All right. Well, let's I said disorderly conduct under John Doe cuz look at all the people sitting up >> Yeah, look it's good enough Yes, it's Ohio. Officers may detain individuals based on reasonable suspicion. Here, a disturbance call plus witness statements seeking help establish that threshold. When the subject jumped on the patrol vehicle, the officer faced a Graham versus Connor calculation. Was force reasonable from the perspective of an officer on scene? The Supreme Court requires analyzing severity of crime, immediate threat, and active resistance. Despite significant provocation, the officer used minimal force. Florida statute 877.03 defines disorderly conduct as acts affecting the peace and quiet of persons who witnessed them. 10 residents on balconies satisfy this element. The subject's request for the officer's firearm could have justified immediate use of force. The officer's restraint demonstrates exceptional professional judgment. His voluntary drug admissions were admissible. Miranda warnings are required only for custodial interrogation, not spontaneous statements during investigation. Florida's Baker Act permits involuntary mental health examination when someone poses harm to self or others. This option was available but not pursued. The officer's 20-minute de-escalation attempt, while commendable, prolonged community disturbance. Balancing patience with prompt resolution remains >> Yeah, look it's good enough for me. Yeah, it's good enough for me. Supposedly supposedly he's got a an orange something lowrider car. High on day, he said an orange lowrider. When I first got here No, she has no idea. She doesn't even know where the car is parked. She just met literally met him last night. >> Maybe it's all funny, right? It's all funny, sir. know. It's all funny, sir. Dude, what's your name, dude? You're You're going to jail regardless, so you might as well tell us your name, dude. I said we got disorderly all day long. Hey, John Doe. You don't want to tell us your name, John Doe? Why not, boy? Yep, sure. Are you done? Anyone got a Do you guys have the rapid ID? They're not going to stop you, I swear. This is how he's been since I got here. She met him last night from Maitland. They drove down here. He was supposed to hang out here. His stuff is at his house. In Maitland? In Maitland. Well, she's got to Yeah, that's her problem, not mine. So, he won't say nothing. He's whatever. I'm trying to get him to calm down. He climbs on the hood of my car and is standing on the hood of my car, so that's when the taser came out. And he walked over here. I made him lay in the grass and just leave it. I left him laying in the grass until somebody else got here, so I got people standing over there on the balcony, people over here on the balcony. He doesn't want to tell me his name, he can go to jail as John Doe for disorderly conduct. They're everywhere. Exactly. I'm not doing this all day. He won't tell us his name. He won't tell us where his supposedly his car is parked somewhere. She doesn't know where it's parked. So. I got BKN, is 911 available? Why are you looking at my eyes? I'm a real ass person. Male has female. Wait, I don't need Christian DePalo for the vehicle. Her stuff's in Maitland and we're taking him, we'll find the vehicle later. >> Yeah, I say we just do him for disorderly conduct. >> Does your county have rapid ID? On an On an Irish accent that ain't real, like [ __ ] [ __ ] Do you guys have rapid ID or anything? We don't have rapid ID. I can ask if anyone on I love this life. Uh wait, why do I love this life? And I I got to piss. Johnny, are you joking? Just look at me. Are you joking? Disorderly? I'm sorry, I didn't mean to interrupt you, but they were talking. Who? Or ignore you. The radio, dispatch. Oh, I'm just saying, I mean I think we got disorderly with them people hanging out over there. Other people from the neighborhood bathroom is coming out and staring and and causing an issue. And if he doesn't want to tell us his name, he can go as John Doe. If you want to throw a If you want to throw a BA form in there with it, so when he gets out, he can go there cuz he said he wants to die. Just go ahead and get Oh, I'll just tell them at the jail that he needs Yeah, he's Cooper. On her? On him? Yeah. >> All she knows is Betty.

It's been on the whole time. Benjamin, I got to ask you some questions, all right? Before I do, I'm just going to read something to you. It's your basic rights, all right? You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say may be used as evidence against you in a criminal prosecution. You you the right to talk to an attorney and have him with you now or anytime during questioning. If you cannot afford an attorney, one will be appointed to represent you. If at anytime hereafter you wish to stop talking or have an attorney present, all questioning will be stopped at your request. Do you understand? Okay. With your basic rights in mind, do you want to answer a couple questions I have? All right. How long had have you known what's her name? What? Couple days? So what did when you guys keep When did you guys come down here? Uh so she was she was in my room. Uh we were eating our steak and uh we were doing ketamine also and I was just showing her how to uh like kind of wake up the way I did. She was in your room where? Uh in my room 42 you have a minute? But you shouldn't write it because there's no more drugs there. I've done them all. And uh So wait, your house that you were at your house in Where was it Maitland you live? It's not my house. It's my father's house. >> Your Okay, so you're at your But that's the house you're at in Maitland. >> him. I love him. I'm not going to bother your dad, trust me. So you guys were doing drugs there. Okay. And then you decide to get in a car and come down to New Smyrna to go to the beach. She was like, "Hey, can we go to the beach?" I said, "Sure, baby. Anything you want." And I took her. And then I kind of lost the car. I don't know where it is. I don't really care either. I just wanted her to be okay. She was like tripping. She didn't know where the car was. I didn't I didn't really know where it was either but it's kind of cuz this had to happen cuz I needed to like realize the real that I'm real, you know? Like it's it's kind of hard to realize that I'm not actually going to die, so like I can actually do things and and the things people tell you they don't actually matter. And you're not a snake. You're not You're not a snake. They're all snakes. They're all rats, boy. That That That's their feelings and their shame that they're putting on to you. Well, when you once you came down here you guys parked the car, I guess, wherever you parked the car and then what did you do? Uh I took her Before I Before I make contact So you went to the beach and then I took her and I showed her the ocean and I said, "Hey, baby, isn't this beautiful?" I said, "Do you love it?" And she said, "Yeah." And then I took her and I showed her I showed her some other stuff like I her a worm and she really lost it. After she saw the worm she was like, "Icky, icky, icky. Worms are gross." But we all know worms are beautiful. They're just like And so like she just couldn't listen to herself. And I can listen to myself over and over and over and I'm I'm real happy, okay? Okay. Did you at any point did you guys do anything like sexually, consensual, non-consensual, or anything like that? >> the entire time. >> I kissed her and obviously we had an intimate like I was holding her, but it was like our souls bonded there. I wouldn't say that we I I touched her in any disgusting snake-like way. That's disgusting now. So you just guys just kissed. That was it? >> Absolutely. I love her. Okay. >> never hurt her.

She just called your phone? I don't know. I don't know. receives a B plus. His legal compliance was strong, his tactical patience exceptional, and his investigation thorough. Minor deductions for extended timeline and positioning. Overall, this represents professional handling of an unpredictable situation. The subject receives a D minus. While his altered mental state is mitigating, he chose to use drugs, drive impaired, and create public disturbance. His repeated non-compliance and dangerous behavior on the vehicle showed complete disregard for lawful authority and community peace. The department receives a B. Professional standards and sound policies were evident, but enhanced mental health core responder programs would improve outcomes. Key lessons. First, drug-induced psychosis requires specialized response beyond traditional policing. Crisis intervention training saves lives and reduces arrests. Second, de-escalation means giving time and space, not immediate compliance. The officer's flexibility in allowing grass versus pavement was tactically smart. Third, thorough investigation protects everyone. The detailed sexual assault questioning prevented false charges while ensuring victim safety. Fourth, community impact defines disorder. Private strange behavior becomes criminal when it disturbs others as 10 residents witnessing this incident confirmed. Finally, restraint under pressure is the mark of professional policing. This officer faced threats, bizarre behavior, and weapon requests without excessive force. Mental health crises at the intersection of drug use and law enforcement demand officers balance safety, compassion, and legal authority simultaneously. I don't know. I don't know how to explain it, so yeah. So, but you guys didn't do anything else but kiss or anything like that? >> I mean I touched her and I got held her in a in a comforting way as I was tripping her kind of. Like hugging? Like you were hugging her, like put your arm around her and hug her? >> natural interaction, well. Okay, but no no sexual contact or anything like that? >> I did not put my face in her at all, trust me. Okay. Huh? This is a roundabout way. I would never touch her. I would never hurt her. She I pulled her back. Okay. Well, she's okay. She's She's like I said, she's going to She's going Her mom's going to come pick her up. >> All right, that makes it a little easier. No other charge I have to charge him, right? No other? No, I just >> charging him We just wanted to to make sure that he didn't have sex with her. >> but what's the other what Statutory rape. She can't consent. >> no, like what he's going for right now. >> Oh, I charged him for disorderly. Got it. Just because all the people came out like I said, people came out of theirs and then once I got him to the grass and he was hooked up and he was still yelling and screaming. I looked up, few doors like 10 people on their balconies from the neighboring condos right there are looking to see what the hell's going on. I got you. So. All right, I'm going to get him out of here so I can get back and enjoy more fun. All right. See you, buddy. Let us know what legal topics you'd like us to discuss in the comments below.
