The reason I'm stopping is for improper lane usage and unlawful use of an electronic device. So, you realize people insurance. When you were at the stoplight at Maine and Piatt, you were sitting there on your phone >> and then when you were coming down in between Maine and Piatt and where we are now, you swerved all the way where you're straddling to land lines and then you almost hit the curb a couple of times. >> Okay. >> Um, do you have your proof of insurance? I am actually driving a vehicle with my company. >> Do you have fleet insurance? >> I have insurance. I just don't have the proof of it. So, you can write me the insurance and I can prove it. >> Okay. >> I just don't have it on me right now, but I I have it. >> Okay. Where are you coming from tonight? >> I'm coming from Crystal Lake. >> From Crystal Lake. Okay. Where are you heading to? I am headed. >> On April 11th, 2024, at approximately 1:17 a.m., Officer James Hol with the Crystal Lake Police Department was on patrol in the area of Main Street and US Route 14. He observed the driver of a 2023 Ford F-150 swerving across lanes and apparently texting on SB Main Street as she approached US Route 14. He began following the vehicle and eventually initiated a traffic stop in the vicinity of James Rakau Road and Pott Road. He made contact with the driver who was later identified as Lauren Messer. All right. >> Would you mind shutting off the truck and stepping out for me? Oh, >> what? >> Because I'd like to talk to him back. Um, I really don't need to have a reason. Uh, there's case losses I can ask you. But >> as he was speaking with Lauren, he detected the odor of alcohol and observed other indicators of impairment. Lauren was unable to provide the officer with a valid proof of insurance. After officer Holub arrived on scene to assist, Lauren was asked to exit the vehicle. Based on the officer's suspicion of impairment, Lauren was asked to perform field sobriety exercises. Well, I'm trying to figure out what's going on. I I don't care if somebody's had one beer and they're just driving to their friend's house, right? I have no concerns about that. My concern is to make sure that people aren't impaired. There's a very vast difference between having one drink. >> Things that I'm seeing are someone who's consumed alcohol, right? I want to do some things to make sure that you're not impaired. And if you're not impaired, we get you going on Do you know where you are right now? >> I'm in Crystal Lake. >> You're in Crystal Lake. Okay. Do you know what time it is without looking at a watch? >> I would say it's probably about 1:00. >> Okay. Do you know what today's date is? >> It is the 10th. >> These things are the way that I can verify whether or not you're impaired. Okay. Whether or not you're above or below the legal limit of 08. I get it, >> right? >> I get that you're doing your job. I'm not here. I'm >> But what I'm saying is my job is not to put innocent people away. What I'm saying is I've never met you. Do you have a speech impediment at all? >> No. I mean, I went to speech class >> cuz your speech pattern is slurred. Okay. Your eyes are red and bloodshot. You're sweating while you're standing. >> You had improper lane usage. When you got out of your car, you were off balance. >> All these things are cumulative to somebody who could be impaired. But I'm trying to get as much information because if you're not impaired, I don't want to arrest you. But if you are impaired, I have to do my job. These tests are the things that would show me. >> Okay. >> And if they're not done, >> I came from Hawaii. I slept all freaking day. I slept 15 hours today. >> Okay. Did you eat much today? >> No, I ate a sandwich. >> You ate a sandwich. What time did you eat that sandwich at? >> Um, when I woke up, it was about 1:30. >> Okay. All right. So, you don't want to do any other tests? I'm not doing tests because I my >> I've been told not to I've been told that this is just this is incriminating and I just I just feel that it's it's >> else that I'm seeing you're going to Okay, I'm telling you right now. Take me in or don't. >> Okay. All right. You're under arrest for DUI. >> You marked three. >> Yep. You've been cooperative. Do you mind taking off some of these bracelets so that way I'm not >> I have a lot of them on. Just take this one off first. >> Uh I would say if you can take off Yeah, >> it's going to be hard to take this other one off without this hand. >> That's fine. Yeah, just take >> Let's be real. >> If you're not impaired, they will. Okay, I can unarrest people. The state of Illinois gives me the power to unarrest people. But if you are impaired, it's just going to show me and confirm that you are impaired. >> Before we do anything, let's make sure I have every charm because these charms would cost a lot of money. >> Okay. Well, how about this? Stop taking them out of your pocket so we don't do that. >> No, but this is that this is just like a bracelet. >> All right. So, we have >> I want to make I want to make sure that I have >> So, let's do I have all the No, I have all the charms. >> Put them all in your pocket. Why don't we do that? >> Yes. I just wanted to make sure it had been because these are [snorts] >> all right >> extremely important. >> Okay, >> so once again, um I mean I've already asked all of the questions. Don't really have to Miranda if you just want to stand right here. All right, stand as your heels and toes together, arms down, you're signed. Okay. Um try Mirandaise. I mean it's not >> No, not necessary. Okay, cool. All right. So, do you sit see the tip of my green pen >> right here? >> This is just so I can see better, but do you see the tip of my green pen? >> Okay. So, I'm going to check your eyes. I'm going to move this stimulus, the tip of my green pen, from side to side. And I want you to follow it with your eyes and your eyes only. And don't move your head. Do you understand >> the green pen? >> The tip of the green pen. Just keep your head still and follow it with your eyes. Okay. Just keep following. It's going to go from side to side. >> And on these ones, it's going to be held out for a little bit. Just keep your eyes on the green pen. We're going to go straight up and down. All right. The next one you're going to stand right on my flashlight. Or actually, we got enough for the road. We can use this. >> I will uh >> stand. So, if you want to stand right here on this line. >> All right. I want you to turn uh face this way towards my car. So, I want you to put your left foot on that line. Put your right foot in front of your left foot. Stand heel to toe with the heel of your right foot against the toe of your left foot. And just stand arms on your side like this. All right. Don't move from that position and don't start the test until I tell you to begin. Does that do you understand? >> Okay. >> So, stand in that position like I'm standing right here. I'll even stand in the position with you while I read the instructions. So, when I would tell you to begin, you're going to take nine heel to toe steps down the line. Once you get to your final step, you're going to leave your front foot on the line and turn around using a series of small steps around it with your other foot and take nine heel totoe steps back. >> So, nine steps forward. >> Maintain that position. >> Nine steps back. >> Yep. Maintain that position. >> Yeah. Maintain this position. Nine steps. >> Nine heel to toe steps down. >> Turn around like I'm going to demonstrate like I had described. And then nine heel to toe steps back. So, it's going to look like this. I'm only going to take three. One, two, three. Keep your front foot on the line. Series of small steps. One, two, three. While you're walking, keep your arms down at your side. Look down at your feet. Count your steps out loud. And once you start walking, do not stop until you've completed the test. >> Nine steps back. Nine steps. >> Yep. Do you understand all those instructions? >> All right. Whenever you're ready, your first step is one. >> One. [ __ ] Two. Three. Four.

No, I will I will say >> as a matter of fact, >> there is ways that you can still drive even if you have a DUI. Okay. >> No, there isn't. But >> no, there isn't now with my job.

Yeah, >> you got my phone right here and you're going to look over >> this car. >> Oh my god. >> You know that guy was a psychotic and he really freaked me out while I was sitting in there. >> Yep. which is why we kept him handically okay until I started hearing him and then he started crying. >> So, I cut it. >> You have everything I have? >> Yep. >> Key stand while I go. >> Uh, that jacket. Where did that? She got a jacket. >> She's got it on. She's got it on. >> That's all right. Can you make sure my cameras are on? >> Do you have the warrant now? >> Yep. >> Okay. >> Yeah. I got a print out that I'll hand you before we serve it. >> That's fine. >> And then that's it. Yeah. >> Okay. That guy was a lunatic. >> What's that? >> The guy you guys brought in, he was a lunatic. He made me feel very uneasy. Like at least hearing him. I mean, >> at least what? >> Hearing him? Like >> hearing that guy? >> Like listening to him. >> Yeah. Unfortunately, that's uh >> you was psychotic. >> A lot of people >> you was psychotic. >> Yeah. >> Yeah. We get that unfortunately very regularly. >> Oh, I'm sure. >> That just scared me in general. >> Yeah. I'm sorry you had that. >> I mean, you're sure. I'm sure you're not sorry, but >> I get it. >> No, I am sorry cuz you're a nice person. You don't deserve to be put through that. That was really scary. >> I'll tell you a little insight. 99.9% of the people that I arrest I generally believe are good people who just did a bad mistake or had a bad day. >> Yeah. Whatever. >> And I try to I've always modeled it for I've been doing this for five about five years. Um, and I at my old agency I was training new guys and I would always say if you treat people the way you treat your family and they were going to have contact with law enforcement, as terrible as a situation is, if you treat them with dignity and respect, it's all you can do. But a guy like that, there's no talking to him. >> No, there isn't. that that kind of guy just >> I also don't think that you roam the streets. >> What >> I said I also don't truly believe that you roam the streets acting as if everybody is a part of your family. >> I don't >> I don't I don't believe that. I love that you think that but I don't think anybody would do that. Your job is your job. It has nothing to do with your family. I'm saying instead of treating people just like a number >> I get that you're trying to treat them with more decency. I get that. But I feel that the way you're defining it is incorrect. >> Well, obviously it's not >> I mean like any anybody that's good at their job like any police officer that's good at their job is not going to treat everybody that they're working with as a family. That's just the wrong way to word it. It's not correct. I'm saying like I treat him as if I would want somebody else to treat me. >> I get it. I get what you're saying. I just feel that it's too nice. I feel how you're saying it. I get it. I do. I do. I understand. I just also feel that um you have a job that makes you abide to the rules and you can say all day, oh, I treat them like family or I would treat them this way or that way. But at the end of the day, you treat them the way the rules are written because that's what keeps your job and that's what gets you your promotion and that's exactly how you should do it. cuz like that's your career, right? That's how you move forward. And if you treat everybody like family, you're not [ __ ] getting anywhere. You're going to be left with dust. You need to you need to move forward and not treat everybody like family. And you didn't do that today. Like you didn't treat me disrespectfully. I'll tell you that right now. Like you treated me respectfully, but you didn't treat me like family. And you shouldn't have either cuz I am not I'm not family. like I am a pedestrian and I did something wrong and you did what you should have done. Whatever. But >> all I'm saying is you don't have to talk out of your ass. Okay. >> Like you can be like you're a nice guy. I can tell you're a nice guy, but you don't have to sugarcoat it, right? >> No, but I'm saying that I think mistakes. >> Yeah, we all make mistakes. You and me, right? You're just the one with the badge. So if we made the m same mistake, it would be a different outcome, right? >> Of course, my mom has a badge, so I know the outcome. It's different. It's just different. And it's okay. I'm not mad at you. I'm mad about how you're on my side or something cuz you're not. I don't want to hear some stupid thing that really doesn't apply to today or me. I want you to be like, I'm a cop and I'm proud of it and I want to do what I need to do and you should stand by that instead of telling me what I want to hear and then going to the your friend cops and telling them what they want to hear. It's just that's kind of garbage, right? I'd rather you stick to your guns. Pick one side and freaking go with it cuz this is not the side you're on. So don't act like you're on my side now that you're in front of me. I can even barely hear you to be honest. I can barely hear you home. And if I don't go home, I want to make sure someone's to take care of my dog. >> So, we'll come get your property after >> cuz I'm going to release you from here. >> I don't know what that means. >> So, you're getting you're not going back to the jail and at the lake police department. >> Stay at the hospital. No, I'm going to see if you either get you somewhere where you can get an Uber or figure out how we're going to get you home. >> You have like Do you have things that I could leave with? >> Yeah, all of your stuff's in my car. >> So, once we get this done, I'll go get you your phone and everything so that way we can get you >> get you released from car. >> Yeah, that's what I'm trying to do. >> Hello. Okay, you can have a seat there. All right. So, this should be all of your stuff. Um, question I asked him was that since my my license um So, you're getting one citation for DUI alcohol, one citation for operating a motor vehicle while using an electronic device, one for improper lane usage, and one for uh uninsured motor vehicle. Once you show insurance to the court, >> yeah, you said you don't have insurance. It's not saying that you don't have insurance. It's just saying you couldn't show it to me today. So, those are for you. That's your copy of the search warrant. This is your copy of the tow ticket. This is where your car is going to be. Um, it's going to be at First Class Towing just down the road off Hyatt Road. >> Okay. >> Okay. Uh, in 24 hours. So, at about 1:00 a.m. So, first thing, >> yeah, I get it. The next day, >> you need to wait 24 hours to get it. >> So, you got to come to the Crystal Lake Police Department first. There's a $500 administrative toll fee on top of the car. You pay that. Then you go to first class and you get a car. No, Chris Lake department. saying I paid >> you come to our police department. You come to our police department first. You pay the fee and then they release your vehicle. They won't release the vehicle to you until that fee is paid and you have the thing in your hand for first class. Then you go to first class and you get your car out. Okay. This is the copy of the breath test that showed that you uh refused. >> Okay. Um, this if you want to sign this, this is saying that everything you're getting, you can go through all of your stuff to make sure it's all there. But that was inventoried when you got to our police department. Okay. I have this charm missing in my bracelet and it's like not your fault. I mean test it on you, but I would like to know like a point to where you guys pull me over so I can maybe >> Oh, it was right by It was just past the access road to the airport. >> Yeah. Like >> So you're going past Casey's. There's a little >> Casey's up by it, right? >> So just past it. So once you're going once you pass Casey's there's an access road to the Lake in the Hills airport and that's where you were pulled over at sports. Like $100 [applause] could be worth everything. And did you double check your pockets? Cuz that's where they were beforehand. Double check the pockets in there. And then I'll make sure >> they were they were on my wrist when I tried to take them off. >> Yeah. And then you put them all in your pockets and it wasn't on the bracelet again. Um, so this is the warning of the wrist. This is what I read to you uh just explaining kind of what the implications are of agreeing to or refusing to sub uh submit your chemical test. This is what I was talking about for the 46 days. inside this uh this is going to be your license for the next 46 days. >> Uhhuh. >> So on the 46th day, your license is going to be suspended. There are ways that you can still drive. Um whether that's a judicial driving permit >> or a means. >> So a judicial driving permit means like pretty much you can drive to and from work with no restrictions. But if you're not driving to and from work, then your work is driving to and from customers. >> Yeah. Then there's ways that you can do that. >> Cuz like my like I don't like work in a direct area. I work customer to customer to customer. >> 100%. The other option is that you can get what's called a bade permit. A breath alcohol interlock device. >> It's the blown. >> Yeah, I get it. I get I get it. >> That's a lot more complicated as a simple like you make it sound simple, but it's not. >> No, I know. You have to go to the court. >> Sound like you could just get this, but >> No, you got to petition for it then you got to go and pay the $50 and the 200 to put it in and the 200 to take it out. >> But I love how simple you make it sound. That would be great. >> Um, so this is uh well actually before we do that, this is your conditions or this is your property >> bracelet.
