[Music]
[Applause]
saw the phone down on the seat and was
reaching forward
[Music]
backseat
we got off at six o'clock today
[Music]
not today
so you think you're good to go for
driving 100.
no no i know i know that's why
[Music]
they just asked me to come up here to
meet him
i mean it's nothing personal yeah i know
it seems that way
no they got an obligation
right i get it on your plate
how far you live from here
okay wow
yeah well i mean because i live it up
north right here
it's 162.
right about 14 miles right it just seems
like a long
it does seem like a long time but i go
to work i'll go belly road
right and come out right there on 80.
right and you know
i'll get out of 20 it takes about 22
minutes
something like that 25 minutes
[Applause]
and i get off i have obligations to
think that's why i couldn't go tonight
to begin there but i'm making it work
but i have to get back home
listen
you don't have to go with him okay i
can't go there right now captain
so so here's the deal i mean i'm not
trying to beat captain i ain't trying to
be ugly
at all i'll get somebody to come get me
i'll come back get it later whatever you
want to do
i'm not refusing anything i'm just
telling you i have an obligation
right
[Music]
vehicle right and it's her word again
she don't think she got some video tape
listen to this this is not court this is
an administrative deal
i know that but i'm just saying
anybody's out there used to police they
said if i drop my phone over the line
[Music]
okay can i get somebody to come get me
no no you got it you
what does that mean that means that we
have to take your gun and take your
badge
and then we gotta go to the chief's
office that's and then the chief
administration will take care of that
that's what we want to do we're
obligated to do what we're doing right
now
that's what i'm trying to tell you so
we've refused we ain't going to handcuff
you to take you with us
but we're not going to give the keys to
the city we're not going to
get my stuff out of
are you going to take the test oh you're
not going to take the test i will take
the test today i just can't take it
right this second
so here's the deal to make it perfectly
clear
what he's explaining to you sure is that
he and the captain are giving you an
order
being in patrol administration okay
you're under their command that you have
to submit
to reasonable suspicion testing
what is the reason this is not for
debate
if you don't understand what we're
saying right now you're not going to
never understand what we're saying
okay so we just leave it right there i'm
not working
so that's all i'm doing i'm on y'all's
team
i've never not been always been on your
team
you understand by not taking the test
now
you're subject to nothing administrative
issues
or administrative procedures
whatever your family needs are we will
make sure those family needs are taken
care of i have
there is i have to take care of it i
haven't my mother died two weeks ago
i have a daddy that i i didn't ask for
this
because i didn't go to sleep is that
mandatory
his truck and i would drive it straight
to town and i'll meet all y'all
you can't leave this here i'm fine
i'm not trying to argue or get in any
kind of trouble i'm just saying i have
an obligation
there's no nobody caught there's no
video footage of me squirming nothing
does some lady like the toys
that i don't make no sense to me
man there's nothing there
captain i'm not trying to make your job
hard none of y'all's job hard
y'all know me you're doing a good job
making it harder i mean i'm not man
you're making mine harder because i got
nothing said i had to go home and go to

and until they finish inventorying
this
or if you don't you're going to be
placed immediately on the ministry
and what does that entail captain

we're trying to do our job we're trying
to do something we're
trying to
[Music]
[Music]
do you have
so you're driving a city vehicle without
a duty weapon yeah is that something
illegal yeah it's against policy what
ain't against pause
well maybe you should brush up on me
just a little bit okay i guarantee we
can look around
and everybody's broke policy okay they
got body cameras on
no that's that's against balls
you're not going in the vehicle listen
you don't want to stand coker
i got the keys to the car i need that
money yeah
[Music]
okay
[Music]
the whole
in that black thing
[Music]

i don't know what i've done wrong yeah
here
[Music]
jesus christ man i'm
you're frustrated i am badly and i get
that
yeah sure in my black black wallet
where's the water well i'm trying to
think it should be right around there
somewhere
what i got to pay for this stuff for
jesus christ man is i don't understand
it's just like a black folding wall it's
got my bags and stuff in it
it wouldn't be in there can i just
peek and i'll hold my hands up i mean
like i'm gonna shoot come on man
i wear every one of y'all
my stuff's in it man
you came to pry somebody their stuff
they're not defining your stuff well how
long does
it find a prize
i mean we'd sit here and play webster i
know i know let's find a prop
okay because they permanently keep you
from if they're not you're going to get
it back however
at what point in time whenever you make
arrangements like the stuff out there
that breaks in the car and said i'm
gonna give it back not just not today
okay
i'm not gonna have this debate it's not
a theft it is
it's not a theft it's not a theft
well after we get done then you contact
the sheriff's office and then you can
make a report
i wouldn't do that okay i'm just telling
you you got to i understand you're
frustrated
but you're going about things the wrong
way i can't do it right now or otherwise
i understand but you have to do it now
that's what they're telling you is you
have to
that's so you don't have to you're right
there are consequences if you don't
though right
there's no you have no proof of i've
done anything okay
george this is the last do you
understand do you understand
that we're not talking about guilt
beyond a reasonable doubt
for an administrative purposes all they
got to have is a preponderance of
evidence
okay you understand what is the
proponent of it it's the
evidence listen to me this is this is an
administrative matter it's not a
criminal matter
so nobody's gonna go in your vehicle
nobody's gonna take you out can i
just open the door and not touch
anything you look in there go ahead go
ahead might be in the back seat we
looked all around the vehicle
