hello officer F water pleas is I stopped to you a 59 and a 45 do you have your registration and insurance with you I don't know what it is pardon me that one's expired as of September I don't know pardon me I don't know okay well the requirement is that you provide and I'm giving you an opportunity to do so so if you want to refuse to give me one that's okay but I'm giving you the opportunity why are you being a jerk this isn't the first Midwest safety video that we've looked at and it's not going to be the last I I'm not you are You' stated three times I don't know stic okay I requested something that you're required to give me okay and I'm giv you the opportunity sarcastic with you I have been nice to you so pretty much universally among traffic cops deputies Troopers officers um if you get stopped license registration Insurance are three Universal things I mean I've heard Troopers asked for it in Alaska I've heard of deputies asked for it in California I've heard off officers asked for it in Florida like it's everywhere like it is universal license registration Insurance there are three things that you need you need them everywhere so for this motorcycle cop traffic cop to ask for her registration and her insurance and for this lady to act like this is such an obscure request like that she couldn't possibly know where any of that stuff is because no one's ever asked her for it ever in the history of forever ever seems a little bit it's a bit of a stretch what I'm trying to explain to you is I'm giving the opportunity to look for it oh my gosh you're the first one who asked me for this what's your name my name is officer fager with the Edgewater Police Department spell your name for me let it'll be on the bottom of the citation you're an [ __ ] yes you have your insurance ma'am yes on my phone you want that too yes ma'am who's your supervisor my direct supervisor today is Officer RAR no who's your direct supervisor period pardon me who's your direct supervisor Sergeant Anthony BS what's his phone number ma'am would you please provide me your uh proof of insurance please giving you his phone number your proof of insurance please what's his phone number how hard was that pardon me there's no need to use vulgar language man' you don't have to be such an [ __ ] since when was I don't recall anytime I've been professional the entire time it's called professional you wow all you have to do is provide me your registration insurance and we can avoid any issues and I have told you oh my God why are you calling 911 hang up or you going to go to jail for misuse of 911 missusa 911 is a great criminal violation um it it used to be criminal here uh they took it off the books it's a great violation for when someone is there dealing with you it is not an emergency situation they pick up their phone and they're like I'm dialing 911 911 those dispatchers have a hard enough job as it is like being a a law enforcement dispatcher is a it's a tough job but on top of that to have to deal with someone that's not having an emergency that's just having a you know a feeling of arrogance or that they're so aloof that they don't want to talk to the officer that's there that is unacceptable and I love states that have this as a criminal violation cuz as soon as someone hits 911 and that dispatcher picks up that should be the end of that person should be in right then and there hang hang hang up hang up or you're going to you're going to go to jail for misuse at 911 hang up the phone are you failing to provide your proof of insurance no I'm

was young younger much Dumber um ended up in the hospital for a week uh ended up having a surgery or two bunch of stitches concussion all that stuff so um kind of a terrible thing and uh it's one of the things that makes traffic stops really dangerous is you start dealing with someone in the in the doorway threshold of a vehicle you had the possibility of having that vehicle used as a weapon against you you will get a supervisor now walk back to that car you're going to jail I need to call no it sucks you're going this way I need to call my kid unfortunately let's he's home by his he

that's my supervisor he's going to talk to you okay just stay calm all righty ma'am what is your first name it's Michelle hello Michelle my name's Roberto okay so he's like can I'm I'm begging you could you please at least take my watch off this is killing me what what is killing you exactly the the handcuffs handcuffs on one arm or how many on they're both like hard cutting I'm going to take a look okay if I can fit my fingers in between the Handcuff and your wrist can you I can't loosen them I can take the watch off I'm just going to take a look please I have panic attack ma'am I'm going to going to let you know something right now you are in this car for a reason please don't take me to tell okay please yeah see I'm not going to open the door if you're if you're going to you're going to start escalating okay if you're asking me to to to remove the watch I can do that but I'm letting you know right now going to do anything you can't start acting that's not true leave the door open Oh see it's okay it's okay just you don't have to move I will take the watch off all right M okay so much better all right just watch your watch your foot you can't leave the door open I promise I'm not going can't leave the door open no we're going to drive don't leave the door open when we're driving all right so from the beginning how was it exactly that it was just me he was asking for my registration I'm like I don't know I really didn't know and he was saying I was being a smartass about it but I really wasn't I don't know I took the S and put it on and I didn't know what I did with it so I was looking for it he's like she didn't say that one more chance I to get your registration I was looking for it yeah and he was being mean and then he said um that I was going to go to jail and that um it's not exactly the sequence of events that I was going to go to jail and that um that I needed my insurance and I had to pull it up on my phone and that took a while and then I asked for his um his supervisor's name and I didn't didn't know that I wasn't allowed to call 911 even if the car was behind you take me for the jail he told you not to I hung up I did what I was told what was the reason you were calling 911 because he was being a jerk I just wanted another car so that was after you had requested me and I was on the way no that was before and then I just simply went in my ticket I asked him nicely for my ticket and he wouldn't give it to me give me my ticket so I can go please don't take me to jail I'll do whatever I have to do please well here's well here's the here listen man I'm I am completely understanding of people's situations all right we all go through things trust me I know but here's the thing is you decided to put the car and drive and try to take off because I asked with my with my officer's arm still inside no it wasn't it wasn't there stop you give me my ticket you was stepped up his arm wasn't his arm wasn't on my car sir where was it it he was standing by my car and that's why I want to taken off with this but if he told you not to go and you but then I stopped how exactly did it happen he told me he told me um I I was yelling cuz he won't he wouldn't give my I asked nicely several times for my ticket and he would't give it to me and then I got that's when I none of that was nice I got to get home to my kid you know I'm the only one that he has and um he went so I started yelling and and he saids and so I I went to drive off he goes don't drive off and so I stopped when he said that okay that's how I remember it I'm having a panic attack so I have two officers saying differently though I wasn't trying to hurt him I wasn't I understand but for that reason that is the that's the reason why you're in the back of the vehicle I'm sorry I will apologize I will never do it again I swear never do it again a good person I've never went to jail I've never done anything I'm going to put this back in the car I'm going to have a word with one of the other officers and I'll be right back okay I thought she was going to run over your foot dude you had your hands in the car yes and she the her stop I held on luckily I didn't go down cuz look I held on I held on I broke I think I might have broke her handle here cuz this is where I grabbed so hold on sure doesn't pop back it just pops on dude does it yeah yes sir are you down on India River by you're trying to explain the citation she's screaming at you yeah I was attempting to handle it cily she didn't want to talk to you so she threw it Drive I don't know if she had it in drive already and she took off dude no she threw it in drive and she had a taser ready there ready to rock taser yeah the center console oh the pink thing yeah so what are you going to get her with cleaning looting is that it off she attempted to I mean I don't know if I could potentially I mean aggravate a battery but no that be a hard one that's the only thing I can think of but I mean fleing loing is enough in my yeah it's F just like resisting I don't know yeah like a next level down yeah cuz she didn't get out of the car either you could do either yeah either would work I think right yeah so this round table that's happening right now um it's a super normal thing that that law enforcement officers do because everyone's got a different interpretation of what's going on and um some people that are older with more gray hair talk to people sometimes that are younger with less gray hair um and we we Round Table what the applicable charges are um if there's aggravating circumstances if there's maybe a charge that you haven't thought of um so pretty common um to to see what the most applicable charges are um so you're not dealing with any sort of Double Jeopardy you're not double charging someone um but that you get the the correct violations for the crimes that were that were observed or that were committed ma'am unfortunately you're going you're going to be going to jail today okay no after what I after after what I just heard you could have seriously injured you could have seriously I wasn't trying to please I know that you weren't trying to i' I've had a really hard time please I was I I was seeing a psychiatrist and Stu please begging you I'm sorry man the sergeant goes around he gets there he talks to everyone she thinks that he's going to change this officer's decision and take the Cuffs off and shake her hand and send her on her way um I've never seen it happen I'm sure it's happened in law enforcement I'm sure somewhere it's happened um but I've never seen someone where something happens like this which you know is is obviously felony and and multiple criminal violations and have an off have a officer call a sergeant Sergeant gets there and goes uncuff that person no charges are applicable here sir have a good day that doesn't happen so when like this woman is calling a supervisor thinking that the super is going to get there and supersede his Deputy which he can but it just it doesn't happen especially when you've got easily articulable violations like she has a Sergeant's not going to say hey I understand that you broke the law and my officer or my Deputy arrested you for that we're just going to ignore the fact that you broke the law that's never going to happen so I don't know what she was thinking the outcome was going to be of talking to a sergeant but obviously didn't work and obviously she went to jail and that's exactly where she needed to be for behaving like this this is not going to be this this is not going to be something that's going to take 74 years okay I I I I I don't have money for Belle how am I supposed to get out don't act crazy don't take me to jail I swear I will do anything I promise all right I will do anything please there's you can do female officer arriving here shortly to conduct full sear ma'am I cannot help you in that regard I have nobody if I had un amount of money I would post your bail but I do not but you cannot you can change it no no ma'am if I change his mind no ma'am please no he did the correct thing today okay Michelle was charged with fleeing eluding resisting and misuse of 911 she pled no contest to any charges and records indicate the fleeing eluding charge was interestingly changed to a tampering with physical evidence charge she was sentenced with 18 months probation 50 hours of community service an apology letter to the officer a driver improvement course and mental health evaluation and treatment
