my iPad that you're someone else's
proper you've taken all my equipment all
my stuff and you still can't find
anything yeah but I I can't exactly hold
it well you could before
she expressed frustration over the
seizure of her device and belongings and
the situation only eased when the
officers explained that they had a
warrant to conduct the
search so I'd love for them to take
these handcuffs off you I I was trying
to tell them they were hurting me I will
have bruises to show how they've hurt me
so you're going to listen to this
officer but if the when he removes
handcuffs that's fine but if you'd like
me to explain this to you I'd rather
stand face to face let you hold it then
have be back of the cop
cars step on out up on the
[Music]
sidewalk just hold your hand right there
until I tell you you can move it
please no no I you I think you broken my
hand would you like and would you like
an
ambulance took a picture of my hand
asking you if you if you know the pass
code that would be help how do I find
how do I get a hold of you know until I
talk to that attorney I'm not that's
fine so would you like the answer to
that if I had the passcode it's a lot
faster plug it in and start extraction
sometimes in the same day but probably
this week if I don't have the passcode
if I don't have the passcode it takes
longer time so if I can talk to Tammy
and get the pass code it could be a lot
quicker should uh should I be trying to
figure out who Tammy
is but she's the only one who has I
don't I'm not going to talk
to in
reality finally she was released on the
spot and is being prosecuted before
leaving the police requested additional
information about the iPad but she
refused after which they completed the
seizure procedure and left the scene in
