good afternoon this is Daniel here with
cops and cons TV I just want to welcome
everyone into our live show today and
we're going to break down some of the
most important issues in policing and
just go over some of the most
interesting stories that happened in the
last week and yes this is the first week
of 2023 but there were so many
interesting police stories and
controversial police incidents that
occurred we're not going to get to all
of them but we've got five or six really
good ones so while we're going through
it and I'm going through some of these
cases if you have any opinions or you
think that I get something right or get
something wrong definitely put it in the
chat that's one of the things that I
love the most about doing this live show
is being able to interact with our
viewers last week when we did this we
really went back and forth on several
different cases and we really got into
the Weeds on some just really incredible
and important topics so definitely put
stuff in the chat there again I want to
welcome everyone in and if you haven't
already please subscribe to our channel
so you know when we put out all of our
new videos the most raw police body cam
out there and then also when we do this
live show we typically do it on Fridays
12 o'clock Mountain usually around lunch
time so I want to welcome in some people
we've got Randall Lewis who's retired
police officer retired law enforcement
from Flint Michigan and just curious for
anybody else is coming from today and um
yeah so it's a little context as
everyone knows January 6th happened
after you know probably about six to
nine months of rioting on the streets
from black lives matter and antifa for
months and months and months and then
there was a ride on January 6th so we
had you know had riots from the left and
we protest it is legal and it is also
important to do however rioting is
illegal if you write if you set
buildings on fire anything like that if
you destroy public property whether it's
in the capital or whether it's at a
federal courthouse in Portland no matter
what that is that should be a crime and
you should absolutely be punished what
is inside someone's brain so the bad
idea is that someone fueled by antifa or
fueled by Q Anon it doesn't really
matter that isn't that interesting the
important part is to be consistent and
that we should want everyone to have the
same outcome the same legal outcome no
matter what side of the aisle that they
are on uh let's see uh I think therefore
I am nice try FBI yeah where is Ray Epps
absolutely uh January 6 was a setup no
riots well okay so people think that
January 6 we kind of have a couple
different levels here and just so you
know cops and con TV does have footage
from the from the capital riots you know
we definitely on our Channel if you want
to go ahead and check that out but it's
we have a couple different levels here
when it comes to January 6th so some
people say that it was a setup then
other people say it was kind of in the
middle say it was a right and then some
people say that it was an Insurrection
so you know it's interesting to see kind
of what people think
um on those on those different levels
and we just went ahead and put in the
chat some of the footage that we have
from January 6. all right so when it
comes to police stories the first case
that we're going to get to happened in
Breckenridge Pennsylvania on January 2nd
2023 and I'll be honest when I first
heard about this story that it was in
Breckenridge Breckenridge is the town in
Colorado that me and my wife go to all
the time it's a nice little ski town and
when I heard that there was an officer
involved shooting and a police chief was
killed I was I was pretty surprised
because Breckenridge Colorado I mean if
they have a moose walking around
downtown that's about the most action
police officers are gonna get however
looking into a little more is actually
Bracken Ridge Pennsylvania and what
happened this was on January 2nd of 2023
and just not a good way to start the new
year so what happened was is there's a
28 year old named Aaron Lamont Swann Jr
he's an individual and he was wanted on
a probation violation so essentially
what a probation violation is it's
equivalent to a felony warrant so it's
someone who had been convicted of a
felony and then instead of being in
custody in jail the judge the court
system the D.A has let them basically
live their life free under certain
conditions parole would be the most
conditions and then probation would be
the second most conditions you know
typical uh things that people have to do
while they're on probation is they can't
drink alcohol they can't do any illegal
drugs they have to have a job they can't
associate with known criminals they have
to maybe they have an electronic monitor
where they have to be they have to be in
at their home at a certain time there's
many different obviously they can't pick
up any new charges so there's different
things that people can't do restrictions
when they're on probation if they
violate that then what happens is the
court issues the warrant and that
warrant for the probation violation
again it's equivalent to a felony
warrant so it's seen by police officers
as a pretty serious thing so what
happened in this case is this individual
police officers were trying to get him
um he first tried to get him into
custody he first had contact and was uh
tried to be arrested by Harrison
Township Pennsylvania police officers at
about 2 pm well while this happened he
fled that there there was a foot chase
and this foot chase went on for several
hours he was hiding out in different
places and it took several hours before
police officers were able to contact him
again then at about 4 15 PM so a little
over two hours later a Brackenridge
police officer was then able to contact
Mr Swan and he joined the foot chase not
only did one police officer from the
Brackenridge Police Department joined
the foot shift but um Chief McIntyre
Justin McIntyre who was the chief of the
Brackenridge Police Department he got
involved in the chase as well and
unfortunately at this point there was a
tragic series of events where their bad
guy Mr Swan he shot two police officers
essentially while they were chasing him
he was lying in weight and he
essentially ambushed Chief McIntyre he
shot him and he killed him also he shot
one other police officer from the the
tarrantown Pennsylvania Police
Department Officer Sharon ghost during
this incident he was also shot in the
leg however he will survive after Mr
Swann shot and killed the police chief
and and the other police officer from
officer Sharon ghost he then again was
eluding looting law enforcement he was
able to carjack a victim so essentially
he stole a vehicle by force and he
started to drive that vehicle around and
now we have not just the felony
probation violation but we now have you
know a homicide of a police officer so
now police officers are absolutely going
to chase and pursue and get this guy in
custody so he's running from police in
the vehicle there's a obviously a
authorized vehicle Pursuit at some point
Mr Swan crashes the car and he starts to
run again he starts to run into a wooded
area once he gets to that wooded area
and kind of as he's running away he
again starts shooting at police officers
luckily he misses but the police are
able to fire back and they do shoot and
they do kill him
um so again this ended with the Mr Swan
being being killed he was the offender
uh Chief McIntyre was also killed and
then officer Sharon ghost
um he he is injured but he will recover
and just just one one thing that I one
other thing that I want to say about
this is you know it's even in small
towns and smaller places it's extremely
rare for a chief of police to be
involved in active police work trying to
get bad guys into custody taking felons
to Jail uh being a part of an actual
active Chase usually police Chiefs
either are in their office because they
just want to be an executive and they're
in their office or they just
legitimately have so much business of
running a police department and
Community meetings that they physically
just don't have the time or the ability
to go out in the field so the fact that
Chief McIntyre was out there with the
troops working for him actively trying
to take a bad guy into custody that
shows what good of a chief and what good
of a leader he was um he will be missed
and the thoughts go out to everyone
there and the Brackenridge Pennsylvania
uh police department let's see if we
have any comments on this case maybe we
have some people who are local who maybe
have some more information on this let's
see
no other okay I don't have any comments
on that so if you do definitely go ahead
and put them in there but um I know that
there's a GoFundMe set up for
um his his family and um again that's uh
the Bracken Ridge Police Department it
was Chief Justin McIntyre uh so again
that was not a good way to start the
year and we had another case that
happened on New Year's Eve that was also
just a really strange way to start the
year so this happened in New York city
so as everyone knows you know right
around Times Square it's all pretty much
locked off and blocked off where they
let tens of thousands of people in to
Times Square for New Year's Eve and that
there's a security perimeter there's a
fence around it there's you have to be
searched as you go in well not only do
as you can imagine not only this area is
so busy not only do police departments
have an inner perimeter around actual
Times Square but they have kind of an
Outer Perimeter to help with traffic
control and pedestrians and also for
General security measures that are just
outside of Times Square and that's where
this incident happen so what happened
was um just um on New Year's Eve there's
an individual he's a 19 year old named
Trevor Bickford from Wells Maine and
unprovoked he didn't have any contact
with police officers priorities he had a
machete and he essentially ran up behind
three police officers and started
hitting them and stabbing them with the
machete he was able to stab all three
police officers now I'm just going to
put it out there all three police
officers were injured but they're going
to survive so that's a good thing there
one of the police officers during this
completely unprovoked just crazy machete
attack was able to fire off around and
did hit Mr Bickford in his shoulder
um he is not deceased he did survive
he's going to have serious injuries
however once he recovers from those
injuries and he's out of the hospital
he's going to be facing some serious
attempted murder charges in New York
City and hopefully he'll be spending the
next several decades in prison now this
wasn't necessarily a random thing from
Mr Big effort so again he's only 19
years old and some little more
information about him is that his family
members actually contacted the feds in
the last couple months because he had
been radicalized by uh the Islamic
extremists so he was really into this is
Islamic extremist
um ideology and his family was so
concerned that they did contact the Fed
so I mean you know we don't have thought
crime here in the United States so just
having bad ideas you know that isn't
something that you can be arrested for
unless you take active steps you know in
furtherance of those ideas but he was on
the radar at least someone in the
federal government who had these ideas
also before he did this it almost seems
like it was a suicide by cop Mission
because he did write essentially what
was a suicide note and in this note he
wrote out what he was going to do that
he was going to attack police officers
and also he it seems like he expected to
be shot and killed by police which if
you're going to go around stabbing
police officers that's a reasonable
expectation from that behavior right
it's like if you steal a taser from a
cop like expect them to use lethal Force
against you I mean if you take a machete
and you start stabbing police officers
you would expect them to respond with
lethal Force that's reasonable so in
this letter that he wrote prior to doing
this attack he spelled out kind of like
a will where he all of the things that
he wanted to go to his inheritance he
put in there who should get what so this
seems like this was a uh this seems like
it was a um a suicide by cop Mission
um so and again he is in the hospital he
is recovering but this happened in New
York City right outside of Times Square
so it's good that the that um you know
this didn't happen where anyone was
killed
um but three police officers did sustain
some injuries all right so let's see if
we have any comments about any of these
cases that we've gone over so far uh no
comments we have someone from Australia
welcome in uh also want to welcome in
uh okay Red's General District Court so
someone said something uh uh Norman
Jones says are cops any better than I am
not really sure what the context is so
Norman Jones um if you want to put some
more context in that maybe we will maybe
we'll understand what you're talking
about we can go back and forth but it
seems like Red's General District Court
was trying to go back and forth I also
want to welcome Lou skunked from Myrtle
Beach want to welcome I want to welcome
you guys in uh let's see the milkman's
kit says off topic why can a bail bonds
person have the word officer on their
badge
um that's that's a really good question
so I I think when it comes to milkman's
kids so let's think about this myself
you would think that every state has
different laws when it comes to you know
what Bail Bonds people can do every
staple have different laws around it and
it isn't so much that the word officer
is written anywhere it's more are you
doing things that would make people
think that you're a police officer so if
you're a bail bonds person whether you
have the word officer or not not if you
are doing things to impersonate a police
officer that's when you're going to want
to follow the law that's when you're
going to get in trouble Simply Having
the word officer probably not because if
you think about it private security
officers who have you know maybe work at
a hospital or work protecting a bank you
know they literally have no
um uh no power from the government no
powers of arrest
um but you know if they still have the
word officer security officer most of
the time so I think you have to think
about it this way it's not just the word
officer that could be problematic but
it's you know are they pretending to be
an actual government law enforcement
officer a certified police officer that
is where they are going to have trouble
uh let's see uh
uh Julia Hewitt says as an old retired
cop they hate having to take a life it
haunts you uh yes absolutely no police
officer I've said this multiple times
there are no police officers out there
who are looking to get into a shooting
and to take another human life
absolutely there are are no police
officers who think that way uh let's see
the milkman's kid I was referring to the
video that came out from Arizona a guy
was arrested for impersonating but his
badge was apparently okay yeah so
milkman's kid I think that's um pretty
much along uh the same thing so um
that's actually a video that we posted
here on on Cops and cons so definitely
make sure you go back and watch it if
you if you haven't haven't already but
yeah so that's a security officer and
again it wasn't just the ward officer it
was more a totality of the circumstances
of impersonating a police officer that
got him in trouble and that will get
anyone in trouble because even though
state laws are a little bit different uh
when it comes to this you know if you
are impersonating a police officer if
you're trying to pull people over things
like that you're going to run to follow
the law and get in trouble absolutely
okay so those were the first two cases
that I wanted to talk about and again
they weren't they weren't great cases
for law enforcement we had we had a
police chief killed on the second and
then we had three New York City police
officers that were stabbed on New Year's
Eve so not a great start for uh 2023
when it comes to law enforcement
um again last year was the most deadly
year for for police officers I believe
there were 64 police officers shot in
the line in the line of duty um so it is
it is a definitely a dangerous time for
police officers out there so the next
case I want to talk about is pretty much
the biggest case of the week so this is
the case that everybody's talking about
if anybody listens to Nancy Grace not
sure if you do but obviously people like
Nancy Grace this is absolutely all
anybody is going to be talking about and
it's the Moscow Idaho case so again we
talked about it a little bit last week
but even last week I said you know we
really haven't gotten into it a whole
lot because there there wasn't a lot
that was known and the only thing that I
said last week and before that is that
there was the family of the victim so
you understand have to be unbelievably
just upset and Confused hey I can't even
imagine the range of emotions that they
might be going through but some of them
did Express their displeasure with law
enforcement and the only thing that I
cautioned kind of while this was going
on the last six and a half to seven
weeks is that it's very likely that the
police because not only did they have
the local police but also State Police
they had FBI they had the feds involved
so it's very possible that just because
the police aren't telling the family
everything or aren't telling the media
everything they likely know a lot more
than they're letting on and that's and
that ended up being the absolute case
because you can imagine that if they
have a suspect in mind and they do have
a suspect in mind he's been arrested but
apparently this individual was a suspect
within two weeks of this story coming
out of these murders happening so again
everyone remembers this happened about
seven weeks in Moscow Idaho there were
four college students who lived in an
off-campus rental house and they were
killed while they they were sleeping
this happened right around four o'clock
in the morning and four of them were
stabbed in the home now a couple
interesting things is that the house
actually had six people living there so
there were two other people who lived on
the bottom floor who weren't injured or
harmed or anything by the individual who
killed the other four
um so that was one of the things that
you know was kind of you know how could
I mean reasonable people were asking the
question how could you how could four
people be killed in a house and the
other two roommates were present they
were home but they didn't know what was
happening so let's talk about this
suspect a little bit his name is Brian
coburger he's a 28 year old PhD student
and he's studying Criminal Justice at
Washington State University
um I I A lot of people are playing up
the parts that he has a master's degree
in criminal justice and then he was a
student who was you know in a PhD
program
um over at Washington state for criminal
justice so a lot of people have just put
a lot of stake into that and I'm gonna
say I I don't think it's actually that
relevant really the only interesting
thing about his educational background
is that one of his professors from his
master's program over at Desales the Sal
University the only thing interesting
about his educational resume is that one
of his professors was Dr Catherine
ramsland and Dr ramslin is a famed
forensic psychologist she's an author
she's a professor but after Dennis Rader
the BTK killer buying torture kill after
he was finally arrested I believe back
in 2006 and convicted
um the professor ramsland was able to
start a letter writing campaign pain
with him where I shouldn't say campaign
essentially a letter writing
correspondence with him she got to know
him and the two of them actually wrote a
book together and she did multiple
interviews with him so she was a
forensic psychologist but that's kind of
how she became famous is her ability to
connect with some of these just awful
serial killers and really exploring why
they do what they do so the fact that he
happened to be one of the students in
her class that's really the most
interesting thing about his education
and you know I mean what what I also
want to say is this is there's just been
some just really juvenile reporting
about this in in the news Newsweek said
that that Brian kohlberger was trying to
commit the perfect crime which is
absolutely ridiculous listen Brian
coburger he's not a master criminal he's
not he's not a a brilliant scholar he's
a creepy incel who just happened to take
extra college classes because he didn't
want to get into the real world and have
a real job let's stop pretending that
he's Hannibal Lecter okay it's
absolutely insane now there was a 19
page arrest warrant affidavit that came
out yesterday which essentially was 19
Pages some of it was redacted but it
really gave us the public a real key
into what was part of the law
enforcement
um investigation so how did they how did
they catch this guy and they caught him
you know 2300 miles away I believe in
Pennsylvania over at his parents house
or some somewhere on the East Coast but
you know over 2 000 miles away he was
arrested how did they find out he was
the he was the suspect how did they
catch on to him so quickly that's what's
interesting about this and uh I'm gonna
I read the 19 page report and you know
you can read different different
accounts where they're going to go
through there but there were a couple
things that were interesting to me so
um what was strange is that before he
went home his father flew out from the
East Coast all the way to Washington
State and then drove that white Hyundai
Elantra drove with Brian coburger the
over 2000 miles back home now I I don't
know about you but when I was 28 years
old my dad wasn't flying out to me and
driving with me uh and driving with me
uh 2 000 miles now I live about 1300
miles away from my hometown so when I
have traveled home I've driven I've
driven by myself that isn't uh that
isn't uh that big of a deal and you know
I mean this 2 000 mile ride I just got
to say that that Spotify playlist just
must have been a rager it just had to be
wild what these two were listening to
and you have to think is that why a
reasonable question would ask is is that
why the dad went out because again it's
not normal for a dad to fly across the
country to drive with his almost 30 year
old son back home um or maybe they were
listening to a bunch of a true kind of
True Crime podcast you know maybe they
even calling into shows that were you
know talking about this case which is
which I I think he was trying to insert
himself into the investigation other
ways and I'll get to that in a second
but you know during so is the reason why
the dad flew out is because he knew that
something happened knew something was
going on and that's why he did that
that's a reasonable question to ask and
that's that's pretty interesting also
two different times during this 2000
mile trip they were pulled over and it
was initially reported that the FBI was
tracking the vehicle which is completely
reasonable I mean because he was already
a suspect in this case the police were
gathering additional evidence the idea
that the feds are Undercovers or someone
was watching their movements as they
drove across the country that's a very
reasonable thing that 100 likely
happened but they were pulled over twice
by local police officers and the initial
reporting is that the FBI told local
police to go ahead and do a traffic stop
because they wanted police to see what
Brian coburger looked like or they
wanted to see if he had cuts on his
hands so as soon as I saw this reported
I thought this is I thought
this is absolutely nuts this doesn't
make any sense here's why first of all
if you're trying to track someone across
the country and you have Undercovers
there the last thing that you're going
to do is to draw any kind of attention
to yourself listen if you're tracking
Brian coburger on a 2000 Mile Drive and
the thing to do if you don't want to
draw attention to yourself if you don't
want to have him have any idea that he's
a suspect what the last thing you would
do is to do unnecessary law enforcement
contacts again that just doesn't make
any sense and one of the not trying to
disparage Small Time cops but here we
have probably the biggest active murder
case mass murder case in the entire
country the federal government is behind
this thing and you're telling me that
the feds are going to risk all of that
by some random Hancock County Indiana
cop pulling them over on a traffic stop
and having small talk you really think
that's what the feds are going to do I
mean to me that just seems absolutely
insane and a couple other things the so
one of them wasn't Hancock Indiana and
unless this police officer is like you
know the best actor or or something like
that unless he's like uh unless he's a
Hollywood actor playing a police officer
like you could tell by that interaction
you could watch that body Cam that that
police officer was not trying to hold
anything back right so listen there's
some police officers who have great
poker faces and those guys and gals they
go undercover and they do a great job me
I would never be able to go undercover
because I would just laugh okay no one
would ever buy drugs from me so you know
being in a position where you have to
like lie about stuff especially on a
traffic stop that isn't that reasonable
to think they're gonna do also if you
look at how that Hancock Indiana cop he
didn't go to the driver's side so if
you're at the driver's side Brian Coburg
was the one driving the car if you go to
the actual driver's side you're probably
going to have a better view of Mr
coburger but he didn't do that he went
to the passenger side which is a common
thing that police officers do during
traffic stops because it's a lot of
times safer to be on the passenger side
especially if you stop on a highway so
again to me that seems ridiculous even
on the Reasonable Doubt podcast with
Adam Carolla and famed attorney Mark
garagos they'll listen to all the time
even earlier this week Mark garagos was
talking about how the the FBI had a had
had local police do a pre-textual stop
and that that traffic stop might not
have been legal if they were just trying
to get other information and I'm
listening to this podcast I'm thinking
Mark you know better there's no way this
is what the feds will do well since then
it came out that the federal government
has denied asking local law enforcement
to do it I mean what you have to realize
is that on a 2 000 mile trip
um you're probably going to get stopped
by police they happen to be stopped
twice where they were stopped they were
stopped two times you know pretty close
to each other so
um uh it just seems like whatever
jurisdiction in Indiana that they were
driving through you know they had
officers or some type of a traffic rant
out there where they were looking for
Speeders and one time they were
following too closely all right so I
went on for a little while about that
case or some of my thoughts let's see
what some of you all thought about this
um my enemy the FB yeah I definitely
wouldn't want to Spook him my enemy
thank you so much that is my 100 my
exact point so if you're like literally
putting all these crazy resources and I
know the federal government is a lot of
money but if you're putting all these
resources and all these man hours out
there trying to you know essentially
solve and apprehend like the most wanted
person in the country you're gonna risk
all that by having some random County
Deputy make contact with someone
unnecessarily and again what would they
be trying to find they're already
tracking him right they already know
where he is like what information would
they be trying to find they want to see
what his hands look like listen the
technology that police have at some
point they're going to stop at a gas
station they're going to stop for food
as soon as Mr coburger gets out of the
vehicle that's when they can use their
different cameras and lenses and and
binoculars to see at that point what his
hands look like if there's any scratches
or marks on the hands the last thing you
would do is have purpose contact with a
law enforcement officer who was not
trained in undercover tactics again that
makes absolutely no sense
um that makes absolutely no sense for
them to be able to do um let's see uh
Michael Fisher says from a former law
enforcement officer the relationship
between local agencies and the FEDS are
not on the level for them to call an
agency and request a stop of this kind
Michael Fisher yeah I think that I think
that's completely reasonable so um I
like what you did with that Michael
because you have to think about it it's
like so okay here you have so you know
that Brian Coburg and his dad you know
they're driving you probably have an
idea of where they're going but do you
know exactly what time they're going to
be a specific place so the idea just the
logistics behind the feds calling local
police or having a contact with a local
police officer again it doesn't make any
sense so logistically it's just kind of
silly if the feds do want to do a
traffic stop they're going to do it
themselves they're going to have State
Police they're going to have a whole
Tactical Team they're going to do
something like that but again he wasn't
arrested on this traffic stop he didn't
even get a ticket so there was literally
literally no legitimate the on the plus
side on the positive side like the the
pros there's no Pros that could actually
come from a traffic stop but the cons of
him thinking oh they're on to me
like the thought of that in Brian
coburger's Head like that is a huge con
so again there's no reason the feds
would do this Michael Fisher my enemy
I'm glad that you all agree Miss Ellie I
totally agree uh those traffic cops were
not aware who they had pulled over if
they did uh there would be three other
cops taking selfies with him uh yeah
okay uh also uh cage and Randy uh they
consistently make unnecessary contact
with anybody and everybody okay on the
Cajun Randy yes okay unnecessary contact
fine I'll do that but so what I hope you
agree Cajun Randy that the feds you know
weren't purposely trying to have him do
this also let's think about it this way
here we have someone who again he's you
know the Most Wanted killer in America
arguably right I mean he just killed
four people there was a Manhunt no one
knew who who did it for six or seven
seven weeks so he's the most Wanted
killer
um in the entire country and you're
gonna have one police officer go ahead
and make contact with him you're not
going to have a whole team you're not
going to have a Tactical Team um if you
know that this is Brian coburger um who
just committed four murders you're
thinking hey this guy's not gonna want
to go to jail even though he didn't use
a handgun um hey guns are so easy to get
it's not unreasonable to think that a 28
year old man can't get a firearm if they
really wanted to so you would think that
you know you wouldn't have just one
police officer approach that it would be
multiple police officers so um again if
the feds did and they didn't but if the
feds did have local police do this
they're basically send them into an
almost a suicide mission with like a
wanted violent Maniac
um who may not probably doesn't want to
go to jail and just letting him walk up
to the car like a traffic stop again
that's nuts that makes absolutely no
sense Casey Randy they knew they just
didn't say it the occasion Randy no um
so I mean yeah this would be the
equivalent of like the feds asking
Barney 25 to taking into taking in a
violent Maniac all by himself it doesn't
make any sense um uh let's see Michelle
yes the police were in danger that day
for sure and Miss Ellie listen if
anything once the traffic stop happened
what the feds should have done at that
point if anything is you know call the
local agency and say hey we're tracking
this guy this guy's dangerous and back
up you know so you would think of
anything maybe the fans on the back and
the FEDS on the back end would do that
to try to warn local police officers who
again obviously had no idea who they
were contacting with um let's see
occasion Randy this is known uh this
this clown was a wannabe Jack the Ripper
uh but not nearly as smart a hundred
percent occasion I agree with you 100 he
absolutely wasn't that's kind of why I
said earlier that you know Newsweek did
a whole story about how he's this PhD
student and he's trying to commit the
perfect crime and this is like some
clinical and academic uh exercise that
he was trying to do no he's again he's
not a brilliant criminal he's not a
master scholar he's just a lonely
annoying irritating
incel who didn't have any friends and he
was awkward and um yeah he not this
master criminal he's not Hannibal Lecter
uh let's see um
yes so uh yeah so I mean some of the
other things that that were interesting
that that came out
um that came out during the some of the
things that came out during this 19 page
thing and and I'm gonna say this next
part and I'm gonna agree it doesn't make
any sense and it's a little frustrating
because we definitely need some more
information all right so what we what
what they said is that
um one of the other remember I said
there were six roommates who live there
two of them weren't harmed well what was
actually in the 19 page document is that
one of the other female roommates that
at about 4 17 a.m um she did hear
something at first she thought was one
of the the females who died she thought
that it was the sounds of her playing
with her dog
um so she opened her the door to her
room and she essentially saw who ended
up being Brian coburger standing there
he was standing in the hall he was
walking towards her and he had on a mask
um she described him as
uh being a male being a thin but not
muscular athletic build but not muscular
um and she actually saw him inside the
house so um he didn't hurt her he just
left so I mean that doesn't make any
sense well again here's what doesn't
make sense after that so here she has
she hears some kind of commotion she
thinks maybe it's her roommate playing
with the dog she goes out and she looks
and there's some guy she doesn't know
leaving her house at four something in
the morning who's creepy and he's
wearing a mask okay so at that point
what a reasonable person might do is one
of two things either you call police and
you say hey there was a commotion in the
house and some guy with a mask just left
I'm blocking myself in my room but holy
we need help or you go and check on
your roommate right it seems like most
people would do either of those things
but she didn't do either and we don't
know why so again it's frustrating
because we don't know the answer to
these questions because it seems like
she just went back to sleep the reason
reason I say this is because police
officers actually weren't called to the
scene until around noon so it was like
eight hours later that police officers
actually got there now this is just me
speculating this is not knowing any any
extra information just knowing the
information that we have what it seems
like to me is that we know that this was
a party house we know that at least you
know all the at least most of the
individuals in the house
um had gone out and they were partying
the night before they were different
parties and bars and stuff like that so
is it possible that here we are at four
o'clock in the morning and that you know
someone who is intoxicated maybe really
intoxicated here's something they they
go out and they're kind of in like a
groggy State and they don't they don't
fully realize because what I'm saying is
that you know a reasonable person would
either check on the roommates or call
police well if you're really if you're
you know 21 22 years old and you're
drunk and you're groggy and you're woken
up and it's four o'clock in the morning
the idea that you're going to be in that
category of a reasonable person yeah
just isn't a thing so so um that's
probably what happened that would be my
guess my guess is that she wasn't and
obvi obviously there's no there's no
nothing nefarious going on but my my
guess is the reason she didn't check on
anyone is because maybe she wasn't sure
if it was real and didn't realize it
until you know noon when they woke up
and they found four dead bodies that
this was actually a thing that happened
so those are some of my thoughts on why
she didn't call
um I'm curious what you think about that
so why don't you go ahead and put that
in the chat also
um and less of a question I think this
one is more obvious but I'm going to go
into it anyways okay well why didn't
Brian coburger why didn't he kill her
right I mean he already killed four
people what's a fifth so my thoughts on
this and listen let me know if you
disagree my thoughts on this are that
well he already killed four people and
he's on his way out now now it's not
easy to kill anyone but if you have four
people who are sleeping stabbing them to
death is much easier than someone who is
up walking around and awake so my guess
is that Brian coburger either he killed
who the one target was who he wanted to
kill or at this point he's on his way
out he knew that he pretty much just got
away with killing four people and if he
was going to try to kill this this other
roommate that because she's awake and
not asleep that it was going to be a
fight it was going to be a fight it was
going to be a struggle that might
attract the attention of even more
roommates maybe at that point um other
other neighbors might call that might
get the police involved so um that's my
thought is that either the target was
already killed or it was that he was on
his way out maybe he was injured and
um maybe he was injured and it just
would the juice essentially the juice
wouldn't have been worth the squeeze is
that it would have drawn unnecessary
attention to him and his the likelihood
that he would be apprehended
um would greatly increase if he did
something to um a person who was awake
because it obviously would have been a
lot louder
um
um than than stabbing for people who are
sleeping okay so let's see what uh
thinks uh questions about this uh
Michael Fisher I'm not entirely
surprised I've had numerous
investigations that involve College age
persons and the lack of Common Sense is
frightening yeah Michael I think that's
absolutely correct so um yeah 100 so um
yeah not only could there be a lack of
of common sense but again now now you're
talking about four o'clock in the
morning someone who is intoxicated maybe
really drunk maybe not this is just my
that's just my speculation maybe really
drunk and also maybe in and out of sleep
so I mean uh imagine what it's like
being 21 years old you know drunk out of
your mind asleep you wake up you see
this and not making a reasonable
decision like it almost makes sense why
you wouldn't make a reasonable Common
Sense decision under those circumstances
that's the only thing I can think of
there's literally no other reason why a
normal good person a conscientious
person wouldn't check on roommates or
call for police
um at that point let's see uh Miss Ellie
the Survivor now has to live with that
the rest of her life with the nightmare
of what happened yeah and I don't I
don't envy ND hurdle I think that I'm
I'm sure I'm sure that there is a great
um guilt there from the person who
survived who didn't call police but
again it's likely that it was reasonable
she didn't call police because my guess
is that she was in a state where she
didn't fully um comprehend what was
going on uh let's see any other comments
on this oh well thank you all for your
comments on that case um yeah we will we
will see what happens
um but he is not um
so he is not fighting extradition back
to Idaho so he's back in Idaho he's
going to be facing charges there of
course his defense attorneys are saying
that you know he is he is he is presumed
to be innocent which is a hundred
percent true absolutely that's true that
he's presumed to be in a sense uh and
also um that he looks forward to his day
in court uh attorneys have to say that
if an attorney didn't say that um they
wouldn't be doing their job because
everybody deserves aggressive
representation no matter what crime they
are suspected of committing so um we'll
definitely keep track of this case it
should be interesting going forward
uh no other comments on that case all
right so this case is I mean this case
this next case I'm going to talk about
it happened this week in Louisiana and I
can't even explain irritated isn't the
word I just I just can't I I I I I can't
even say how upset I am with this case
um what happened was is this happened in
Addis Addis Louisiana there's a police
officer named David Cochran um and he
just got charged with two counts of
negligent homicide here's what happened
so there was an individual named tyquel
Zanders tyquel xanders he went over to
his family's house
um he broke into the house he stole keys
to the car and he stole the car so
essentially he stole a family member's
car now those of us who've been police
officers you know that stealing a car is
a felony right like that's technically a
felony offense I think you also know
that there is a huge difference between
people who break into and steal random
cars as someone who takes the keys from
a family member so when you take the
keys from a family member yes it's
technically a stolen vehicle they can go
ahead and press charges but if you get
the vehicle back most of the time family
members don't even want to prosecute
whoever took it and really a lot of
times it's more like embezzlement like
you know they had the vehicle they were
supposed to return it by six but they
didn't and you know well they yeah they
live with me and the keys are here I
don't lock up the keys and sometimes
they take the car to go to the grocery
store so nothing that's exactly what
happened here but again I hope we can
all acknowledge that a stolen car yes it
is a felony it's a serious crime but
it's a property crime and also the
circumstances matter if you steal a car
from a family member most of the time
when you recover the car the family is
not going to want to press charges so
yes as opposed to keep that in mind so
as a police officer you have this felony
crime of auto theft but in the back of
your mind if you have any experience you
know okay if we get this person into
custody you know how many resources are
we going to devote like the family
probably isn't going to prosecute so
what happened on this case is that
police officers were able to locate the
vehicle that Mr Sanders was driving and
they got into a police pursuit with him
essentially they get into a high-speed
car chase at one point the speeds of the
police officer got up to 110 miles an
hour now I'm going to say right there
this is absolutely problematic okay
chasing cars for a property crime
especially a quasi-auto theft is
absolutely ridiculous and here's why
it's not that I want criminals to get
away or I want people to steal cars or I
want to make it a sanctuary City for
criminals that isn't the intent at all
the reason is because police Pursuits
are unbelievably dangerous not only for
the offender not only for the officer
but for the general public normal
reasonable people who are going about
their day going to school going to work
that is who is most at risk when there
is a police chase and yes the argument
can be made well someone just committed
a felony and they're fleeing you know
they might drive they might drive like
and drive Reckless anyway
absolutely but I think we can all agree
that when these people who've committed
a felony and don't want to be
apprehended when they're being chased by
police officers they're going to drive
more like than if there's no police
officers behind them all right so um
while police officers are chasing Mr
xanders um the police officer David
Catherine he's uh Witnesses said that he
ran multiple red lights
um as he's going through which police
are allowed to do but listen what you
have to do as a police officer is you
have lights and Sirens that isn't a
license that isn't an authority to just
blow through intersections essentially
the way you should look at it is when
you go to an intersection and you have
your lights and sirens on you're
essentially asking permission from
everyone else it's still the
responsibility of the police officer to
get to the intersection and make sure
it's clear once it's clear absolutely
then you can go through that
intersection with lights and Sirens you
know if it's within Department policy
but the idea that you can just turn on
your lights and sirens and drive like a
bat out of hell through intersections is
absolute nuts there is no law no policy
or common sense that would allow a
police officer to do that so what
happened in this case is Witnesses said
that the police officer blew multiple
red lights not came up to the
intersection cleared it and then went
through but blew multiple red lights
well he got to one red light and at this
point he was doing 86 miles an hour and
he T-boned someone innocent people two
teenage girls cheerleaders a 16 year old
and a 17 year old and they were killed
immediately one of the one of the
teenagers had a had a younger brother
who was in the car and the officer
seriously injured him as well
um so the officer was charged with um
the next day the officer was charged
with two counts of negligent homicide
um xanders the the original person who
fled from police
um what he did is at some point he
brought the vehicle back to his family's
house so essentially all of this was for
nothing bad guy brought the car back to
his family's house anyway so
um a lot of conversation about well you
know is it the police officer's fault is
it the bad guy's fault you know I've got
the answer to that it's both it's both
of their faults one if you run from a
police officer and if there's a crash
later on yeah you're going to be hit
with some kind of a felony charge and he
was so he was charged with two counts
the the Xander the individual who ran
from police he was charged with two
counts of manslaughter and if this the
teenage boy hopefully he doesn't pass
away but if he passes away it'll be a
third count of manslaughter plus he's
facing a vehicle theft charges um home
invasion charges aggravated the fling of
a law enforcement officer so he's got a
ton of charges but the police
officer himself he is also charged with
two counts of of of negligent homicide
at this point and you know I put this uh
I did a story about this that I I I I
put on on my uh Tick Tock in YouTube
earlier this week talking about this
case and you know there were actually a
lot of people who were in support of the
officer um who said you know the officer
you know people shouldn't be allowed to
run that uh you know it's a hundred
percent on the fault of the bad guy who
ran and I'm gonna say that is absolutely
the wrong way to think about this
because as a police officer you should
not be chasing a car if the conditions
are not safe first of all I think a lot
of police departments have policies that
say Hey cops these are the only crimes
that you can go ahead and Chase for and
if it's not one of those and even if it
is one of those crimes let me go through
them in a second but even if it is one
of those crimes the weather the traffic
conditions everything has to be safe
otherwise we're going to call up the
chase so a lot of departments the crimes
that police officers can get into
authorized vehicle Pursuits for are
typically homicide criminal sexual
assaults armed robbery aggravated
assault and battery and kidnapping so
those are typically the five cases also
if someone is driving like or
driving recklessly before police
officers engage so let's say someone's
driving on the wrong side of the road um
or so that's some someone's driving on
the wrong side of the highway and
they're driving the wrong side on the
highway pulled before police officers
are involved yeah because the driving
was Reckless before police got involved
police a lot of times can go ahead and
Chase that car as well so what you don't
want is for someone who commits again in
auto theft or shoplifting a misdemeanor
domestic violence who's leaving the
scene in the vehicle and they're driving
normal okay not putting anyone in danger
then police officers get behind start
chasing the car and now they're doing 85
miles an hour um running running red
lights literally putting everybody else
in danger so police can't have that
happen Okay so you have to ask yourself
well what can police do if someone runs
I mean you don't want this to be a third
world country where police officers have
no power where anyone who just wants to
run from police can no you're right we
don't want that so but it's a balancing
act just like with anything there's no
black and white this is gray all of this
is gray area and that's where good
policy and good discussion good debate
come in in individual communities when
police departments are not only creating
policy but also training for police
officers so um they this is the it's
just an unbelievable case and that um I
I think it's a hundred percent
appropriate for the police officer to be
charged um as a my feelings on this are
um my feelings on this are pretty strong
I'm gonna see what some of you what some
of you say uh let's see
um in my uh Missy Ellie in my state our
police Union band police chases due to
the danger to police and civilians those
Road spikes they make police throw down
have killed so many people uh that
police must stop that
see uh Randall Lewis our department had
a very strict Chase policy Randall Lewis
uh said even then the Chase had to be
approved by a sergeant or above Randall
Lewis um I'm curious what do you think
about that um I to me that's good again
um to me it's good that the police
department has policies like that a
strict Chase policy you can only Chase
for these specific violent crimes and
then only if it's safe to do so and then
obviously as soon as you start chasing a
car you have to let dispatch know so
Supervisor has to ultimately make the
call whether
okay like I was gonna say what can you
again you don't want to put it out there
in the community hey if you run from us
yep we're not going to stop you guys
just go ahead you don't have to stop if
you want it's more like we're we're
asking permission can we please stop
your car no you don't want a police
department that doesn't have any teeth
so what can police departments do if
people decide to run well they can do a
couple things and I know when I say this
the first thing people are going to
comment on comment anyway but the first
thing that people are going to say is
that's not realistic in the department
that I work for it's not realistic in
the jurisdiction we don't have these
options but a lot of police departments
do so I'm saying if you have these
options here's what you should do a lot
of police departments especially uh
mid-sized to larger police departments
have air support so as soon as there's a
Chase of of a felony once air support
gets in the area air support is primary
on that call so air support follows the
vehicle until it stops until the people
go in and then whatever house that they
end up going into at some point that's
when you have if it's a serious and a
felony that's when you have police
officers or the Tactical Team go and try
to execute an arrest at that point and
that essentially avoids a high-speed
chase also you can have undercover
officers a lot of departments have have
narcs they have gang units they have
undercover officers who are in unmarked
Vehicles who you would never know that
they were police officers so if you have
someone who committed a crime like a
stolen vehicle or something like that
you can have undercover officers in
unmarked Vehicles not Chase but follow
because again just like with air support
they could say okay the vehicle is going
northbound on Second Street we're going
right on uh uh right on Coors and you
know that they they can essentially say
where the vehicle is going at any time
and because they're unmarked Vehicles
there is just no indication there is no
indication
um that the individual the offender
would know that police are behind them
because that's typically when people
start to drive dangerous and put the
rest of the community in danger when
they're running from police so again I
know not it's not realistic stick for
every police department but look at it
this way so the agency that that I that
I was a part of you know is a town of
about 500 000 people about a thousand
cops so not a huge Police Department I
think we were like the 26th or 27th
biggest Police Department in the country
somewhere around there and you know we
had air support um one of our
neighboring agencies had had air support
and there were five six seven other
communities around us that if they
needed our air support that our air
support would go and help so yes a
smaller town might not have it but it's
very reasonable that State Police or a
larger Department might be able to help
out especially if it's a serious felony
um I'm curious what other people might
think about police chases and again
Randall Lewis thank you for putting that
in there uh motor jock 744 uh you are
correct every officer has the
responsibility to use do caution my
former Department had a strict Pursuit
policy pretty much if deadly force could
be used we could pursue
um oh motor jock 744 I I agree with you
100 percent and um yeah there is there
is you know one of the first things that
I learned from one of my field training
officers is that um you know if we're in
a Pursuit if we get into a Pursuit like
there's nothing wrong with you getting
on the air and saying hey this is unsafe
and calling it out yourself he said you
know no one's gonna go into briefing
tomorrow and give you about it
because you called off a Pursuit because
you felt it that it wasn't safe he's
like you know what no one cares maybe
that was how it was with Andy sipowicz
on NYPD Blue in the 90s if you called
out a Chase but even back in the early
2000s that wasn't the mentality um I've
never heard anyone be criticized for
being too safe and for trying to avoid
um avoid um uh police collisions I
worked in I worked in a a kind of a a
motor type units where all we did is do
traffic stops all day when all you do is
traffic stops all day people run from
you every single night so people ran
from me every single night yes it's
irritating it's incredibly frustrating
but when someone starts to run they
start to run red lights um it just isn't
worth it uh let's see um let's see if we
have any other questions here Randall
Lewis says uh okay good I'm glad you
like that Pursuit policy I worked in the
city of the Flint Michigan area okay
that I think that's a high crime area so
you probably have people run all the
time Mr Lewis uh let's see
um uh Missy Ellie says uh we see cops
chase people to death every day on the
media in movies they call them uh they
are uh there's cameras there's too much
civilian death in the United States yeah
I I agree 100 oh motor jock um unmarked
units were prohibited from participating
in any way in a Pursuit and Moto Jack I
think that's good so I think what I was
saying um just just to make sure um uh
you know and I think one of the things
we always have to ask is what would
officer Estrada and chips do whatever
officer Estrada would do I think that
has to be the best uh best practices out
there but um yeah so motor jock what I
was saying when it comes to when it
comes to uh unmarked is that not to use
them to chase
um or to pursue but if you needed them
for surveillance to keep an eye on the
vehicle you know while the individual is
you know maybe going into a house or an
apartment so you know where they are um
definitely 100 motor jockey 100 right
definitely not as um definitely not as
part of the as part of the actual
Pursuit but um for surveillance I think
it's reasonable for police departments
to do some times uh Randalls we never
chase motorcycles absolutely well first
of all it's dangerous to chase a
motorcycle in you're not going to catch
them so it's pretty much pointless and
it's really dangerous um uh to chase a
motorcycle for the actual motorcycle
rider uh let's see uh Pepe Pepe says uh
uh that uh uh chips officer strata he
would remove his shirt absolutely um so
so yeah so that's that's the case like I
I feel pretty strongly about these um
police police chase police chases that
are unnecessary again sometimes so okay
so for example let me compare and
contrast the first case we had with the
individual in a Brackenridge
Pennsylvania you had an individual who
killed a police officer he shot another
police officer he got into a vehicle and
he started to go he started to run from
police so that is a case where yes
police officers they need to do a pit
maneuver they need to chase they need to
get that person off the street as soon
as possible because when you have
someone who is actively shooting at law
enforcement you can imagine that and
they just carjack someone that's a
different thing that is a level of
seriousness where again I think it was
um someone said on here that unless it's
life or death you're not going to chase
them that's life or death you have
someone who just killed someone and
they're trying to flee that's life or
death that is someone please have to
stop at all costs there's no question
about that um again someone who steals a
vehicle from their family
um again we know that's a case
anyways do not Chase for that it's
absolutely nuts uh Randall let's see uh
we had a lieutenant chasing a motorcycle
one evening and he ran over the kid when
he put his bike down the LT was not
charged uh that's that's surprising
don't know how long ago that was but um
Randall I think if that happened today
and a lot of jurisdictions uh that said
the young man died and a lot of
jurisdictions we would see the places
officer be charged for that I I believe
uh let's see uh Andy Guam says that cops
and cons cover SB 960. okay so
um let's see SB 960 uh let's see so this
is um uh SB 960 uh let me read it real
quick uh public employment it says uh
this law maintains that police officers
including trainees be legally authorized
to work in the United States while
abiding with federal laws and
regulations SB 960 will however remove
the requirement that police officers be
citizens or permanent residents of the
United States
um that's interesting I hadn't heard
about that yet and um yeah so um I'm
going to look into that so um Andy thank
you so much I'm not all that familiar
with that besides what I just read there
so I'm going to look into that this week
and I'll definitely get to it next week
I'm gonna do a little bit of research
I'm gonna see what exactly it is what
are some of the consequences if it's a
federal law
um what are some of the states doing on
their side to deal with this um have we
had any applicants come in of people who
who aren't citizens um so I've got some
initial thoughts on that but um I'd
really like to learn a little bit more
about this law before I I talk about it
in detail so um thank you for bringing
that up we'll definitely hit it
definitely hit it next week all right so
the uh well the last case I want to talk
about is um so this is a case that it it
could have gone really really bad and
luckily it didn't um this happened on
New Year's Eve this is an Atlanta
Falcons practice player so he's
essentially part of the Atlanta Falcons
team but he's on their practice squad
which you know I'm my sports are
baseball and then basketball football is
kind of my third sport but my
understanding is that if you're on the
practice squad you're essentially one
step up from being on the actual NFL
team but you're still a part of the
organization so his name is Cameron
Batson and he is part of the Atlanta
Falcons practice squad he's a player on
there so on New Year's Eve he went out
um and he was speeding he was pulled
over by a police officer once up police
officer pulled him over the police
officer saw some signs of intoxication
and we know where this is going there
was a DUI investigation uh trying to see
if he was impaired there were standards
field sobriety tests Mr Batson he was
cooperative during this point he just
didn't do so well
um he didn't do so well on the field
sobriety test at the end of it police
officer decided to place him under
arrest well at that point Mr Batson
decided that the law and you know just
tenants of basic human decency really
didn't apply to him so he decided to
fight the police officer he fought the
police officer and he actually stole the
officer's taser and I mentioned this
earlier stealing an officer's taser
there's a situation what happened in the
Patrick Loyola case which happened in
the Garrett Rolfe case a lot and there's
other ones that we've covered on this
channel too and other shows that if a
police officer has their taser stolen
from them and if the police officer
reasonably thinks that the individual is
going to use that taser on them that's a
deadly force situation it just is
um it's a deadly force situation and a
lot of times that's how people get shot
and public service announcement in an
effort to save life and to have people
not be shot by the place please do not
steal a taser from any police officers
um one thing really quick on NFL
practice squads
um uh the NFL teams can sign 16 players
to their practice squad
um the number recently jumped up from 12
after the 2020 season and these players
can you know essentially be elevated to
the actual
um professional team at any point so um
that that's kind of where he was at so
definitely a member of the Atlanta
Falcons organization so
um Mr Batson he fought with the police
officer he tried to steal he tried to
steal the police officers taser at some
point some Good Samaritans some random
citizens saw what was happening
basically jumped in there and helped the
police officer and that did a couple
things number one what that did is that
got Mr Batson into custody which is good
and also I mean that probably saved Mr
Batson's life because again we see case
after case of individuals who steal
tasers from police officer and then the
police officers end up shooting them
reasonably which is the typically the
appropriate level of force when someone
steals your taser and you think that
they might use it against you deadly
force is 100 what is absolutely normal
and and reasonable for a police officer
to do so um someone someone uh Good
Samaritans jumped in and like I said not
only got Mr Batson into custody but
probably saved his life
um Mr Batson he was charged with
aggravated assault battery removal of a
weapon from a police officer and then
fleeing a police officer as well so
what's interesting is that when this
initially happened there were a lot of
players
um there were a lot of players on the
Atlanta Falcons and the official
organization who initially said that you
know hey we are we are standing behind
Mr Batson and then the video came out
and some more information came out and
he was cut from the practice squad so
um uh let's see
um uh let's see there was a candidate
for the Oakland Raiders um after he was
cut by the okay so he was a uh actually
a candidate for the Raiders as part of
their organization before he went over
to the Falcons um so yeah so he's facing
all kinds of um felony felony charges he
was he was cut from the team but um like
I said the the goal and all of this is
to preserve life so um he wasn't shot
and killed by the police officer which I
know I kind of said public service so
now it's been kind of in a joking manner
it's not funny it's not joking like if
you steal a taser from a police officer
they're probably going to shoot and kill
you um so please don't do that um I know
no one on here would but but I'm just
think in in general
um a lot of times situations like this
end in a deadly force situation which we
don't want to happen luckily that didn't
happen hopefully Mr Batson um spend some
time in jail and he gets some help so
that's the last actual story that I'm
gonna talk about today but I want to do
a teaser for next week so
um on on some of the some of the the my
other social media and again you can go
ahead and follow me over at police law
news over on YouTube and Tech talk and
sub stack but some of the I've been
doing longer form content where I talk
about officer involved shootings and I
really do a deep dive into these
shooting so last week I pretty much did
a deep dive on the Patrick Loyola case
um so go back and watch last week I do
about 16 minute deep dive on the Patrick
Loyola case and I answer questions and
comments from from viewers like I love
to do while I'm going through it while I
was just recently asked by someone to
investigate another case and I'm going
to tease that and then I'm going to go
ahead and do an in-depth next week but
essentially this case and some people
might be familiar with it it's the
trooper Brian North case in
Connecticut so just a short quick little
thing that happened with this case is
this happened in uh January of 20
um there was a vehicle chase a vehicle
Pursuit once the vehicle once the
vehicle crashed once the vehicle crashed
um police officers including a Troop
Connecticut state trooper Brian North he
went and contacted uh the the driver of
the vehicle and there was an officer
involved shooting
um uh Trooper North he is charged with
first degree manslaughter and he is set
to go to trial on the 23rd um uh I mean
in February of 23. so one of the reasons
why this came up is when this when I
first heard about this case so you know
earlier in 2022 spring of 22. you know I
did a short video on it where I said I
did not think that this was a lawful
reasonable or Justified officer-involved
shooting and I based that just on the
body camera in dash cam however since
then Trooper North has given a statement
and some of the other witness officers
that have also given statements so I was
asked by someone to look at those
statements in context and then say what
I think so I've already started started
writing it and started looking into it
but I just want to put that in
everyone's radar for next week so maybe
we can go back and forth on it a little
bit so again it's the trooper Brian
North case um uh he shot and killed an
individual named mulbaric solimani
s-o-u-l-e-m-a-n-e uh back in Connecticut
in um January of 20. so why don't you go
and watch the body cam video of that and
maybe read a little bit about it and
let's let's plan to discuss it next week
