what it was because I can't come over there I can't walk back to her because she scared of me where are you an officer at Cook County Sheriff Department I drive the buses I drive the big bus I drive the inmate support to other counties I'm in the process of retiring 17 years I'm currently on the job so you left then is that right yeah I came here I pulled off over here because she won't come to the car and talk to me I can't come to the car and talk to her so what the [ __ ] we standing there for and she know I'm an officer so what what is we we talk here today though if you're an officer you should know that you need to stay there right what did I do you left the scene oh that sounds like a [ __ ] report you left the traffic stopped did I did I try to get your attention to come to yes and I was in the middle of doing something okay okay who do you work for the city of Korea who do you work for because in this capacity you worked for me and so I'm you told me not to get out the car [Applause] that means come here you asked me what I said I needed to talk we have kind of a way we do things right we get the information whatever we go back and make sure and I got the profile well I know we operated great but what she doing she she operating in in the red she's looking up doesn't mean she can drive everything come right back right I can't come to her that's true everybody at a travel shop you got to kind of wait right follow the rules I asked her to come here and she said she was too busy to do it but she wasn't doing nothing when she stepped out the car halfway and said what do you want right so you can't tell me you can't [ __ ] me she's [ __ ] somebody [ __ ] anyway listen this is how it works like she acknowledged that you waved at her right but she's in the middle of something she can't just stop and come back and forth that's not how it works I mean you kind of know that right being an [ __ ] because she was being who she is okay and that's I'm and all I do all I did was work within the rules I didn't break no rules I asked her to come here I pulled off she got my license what the [ __ ] I'm gonna do I pick up my other address right I understand that plate come back to the same [ __ ] address okay and I left it open so they could run the plates and all that what address is that who's it belong to me my company okay okay that being said being that you're an officer and you know how things work why would you leave because she wouldn't come so I had to but that makes no sense that makes no sense I had to make her come to me I can't look I was doing what I needed to do to control the situation I made her do what I wanted you know right as you know dude hey I do this I know so you should know at that point you don't control the situation I never did control the situation but I brought it to where I wanted you to be y'all don't realize that because I work in the jail I play with criminals okay so here's what this is you know that you know this Learning lesson because she shouldn't even follow me see come on man she did wrong I did wrong we both [ __ ] up you know that how did first of all tell me how she did wrong and then tell me how you did wrong if she see I'm going through a mental health crisis because you don't know me so you got to assume that's a mental health crisis and I showed you my ID at that point it should have been de-escalated you should have took your hand off your waist all that [ __ ] we should have had a conversation amongst peers if you're gonna write the tickets You're Gonna Write the ticket I didn't care I never did care so was she rating the ticket when you waved up I don't know what she was doing she was taking all goddamn day okay so then how did you and then you before we all recording we're
