teen who faces challenges on March 7th 2021 in Lacrosse a serious car crash occurred that involved 19-year-old Cody Patrick Peters Cody was driving very fast when his car hit a big rock rolled over and finally stopped at a dead end on Campbell Road a scared friend in the car worried about Cody's dangerous driving called 911 for help when the police got there they found Cody and his friend the friend was trying to tell the police that Cody who who seemed very drunk was driving Cody however tried to avoid admitting he was driving Cody's car had moved a big rock 150 ft from where it was

so drinking okay do you feel impaired right now no you don't feel impaired the police wanted to check if Cody was too drunk to drive safely they asked him to do some tests to see if he was okay but Cody didn't want to do any tests he didn't think he had to prove anything to the police and then at that point after that would you be willing to do the S Shield SRI test I'm not going to do any kind of sobriety test you two have for me okay so you know based off my observations the vehicle crashed tonight I do want to do the standard field Sur test I can't force you to do them but it's your

good all right on your back before the crash Cody and his friend had been in a bowling alley and then went to another friend's house Cody's friend attempted to prevent him from driving due to his intoxication but Cody ignored her as they drove Cody drove her to high speed while his friend repeatedly asked him to slow down Cody reassured her not to worry really didn't give me much information she said that they were drinking um at the bowling alley and then they went to a friend's house and hung out there he took the keys he tried to tell her she tried to tell him not to drive but they both got in the car he said she she said he did not say anything to him as they're driving they started driving all over time and she repetitively like you need to stop you need to stop and then he just started driving MCH n he said there was his girlfriend and possibly another girl in the car she never mentioned anyone else that it was just those two I'll double check she's been drinking too she's Cooperative but she really wants to say goodbye to him she's pissed she wants to they live together she wants the key they didn't have an argument though that's the thing she's like we didn't get in a fight there's no threats no nothing he just took the keys because he drives when like he wouldn't say anything she's like she said you need to slow down the only thing he said once was don't worry babe I got this Cody was arrested and faced multiple charges including felony first degree recklessly endangering safety misdemeanor second offense drunk driving operating with prohibited blood alcohol content and operating after revocation his refusal to cooperate with the police coupled with his previous due I painted a troubling picture of a young man unwilling to acknowledge the dangers of his actions on August 25th 2022 in Florida a 20 years old got noticed by the police because she was dangerously driving her car she was swerving between lanes and driving unpredictably the police officer stopped her car and quickly realized something wasn't right he smelled alcohol on her breath instead of owning up to what she did wrong the woman tried to use her education as an excuse she hinted that she had a doctorate as if that would make her dangerous driver living okay when the officer told her why he stopped her and why he was worried the woman just asked if she could get a ride home she was trying to dodge taking responsibility for what she did she didn't understand that the situation was too serious all right Mr Lex do favor step out the car for me all right here's the deal hold you over for a land violation got all over the place okay there's an over of alcohol press in the vehicle as I'm speaking to you okay from your breath as I talk to you okay you sub standard I just feel Surety task I want you to show them to you're able to operate a motor vehicle without impairment you understand I it right now what if I got a ride no you can't call a ride we're not calling a uber we're not doing anything you're driving your car I want to make sure you're able to get in your car drive home want to drive home no the officer became even more suspicious when he saw a cooler in the back seat hinting that her night might have been about more than just driving but when he mentioned doing sobriety tests the woman tried to avoid it she asked if her mom could pick her up acting like she wasn't responsible for what she did even though she was an adult not we're not leaveing your car here you're in your vehicle and I have to make sure you're safe enough to drive in your current condition okay cuz you were driving when I made contact with you right yeah me ride home like what if my mom like what if I park my car and then my mom like why I need one g got me D well I don't know why like me was it me swerving or something and leaving your lane driving completely over to center lane of travel on your phone is there something to explain I I'm like drinking like I don't know well I can smell alcohol come for your breath even as you're standing here outside of the vehicle okay okay drunk well you know I don't know and it's my job to make sure you're not in pair before you're get in your car and drive home from you I'm not going to drive from there why can't my mom come and get me there option it's you drive home or you don't drive home why why can't one come and get me it's not an option okay cuz you're operator of a motor vehicle and you drive I'm not going to drive driving a car she seemed both confused and upset trying everything to avoid following the law she asked why she couldn't call her mom why she was being picked on and even tried to talk her way out of the sobriety test her attempts to act innocent or act like she didn't understand were obvious strategies to avoid getting in trouble for driving while drunk you were driving a car in this condition Okay so it's already you know like I said we're not calling anybody we're not calling an Uber you're not calling for a ride all right let do it then okay so you willing to participate first can I call her and tell her no you're not calling her why because you are an adult okay and you were driving a car and I'm going to make sure you're able to drive a car safely home but I still have at home though so like why can't I call her and tell her that yeah I am doing this you you're not calling me why can't she be here though why why we're going to go ahead and move on okay um right now are you sick or injured no I'm not I can't call Mom and no you cannot make you cannot call anybody you cannot make any phone calls right now I'm tring to come get me I'm just trying her to come be here no are you diabetic you take because you're an adult and you're driving a car and we're not calling we're not this doesn't phone a friend this doesn't call for a ride you're like tell her like they like I'm conducting a DUI investigation and I want to make sure that you're safe and I don't need your mom here the officer however remained firm he told her why the tests were important and that she had to do them he made it clear that she couldn't get out of it just because she didn't want to do them you're an adult okay but that is not an option right now but I say I'm 20 years old though and it still matters we're not calling anybody for this first one me come back here and let you stand right here stand right here it J though why is it J because everything's being audio and video recorded okay and it's our policy to have two officers yeah it's it's it's our policy to have two officers presentent while we're doing a DUI investigation okay can you call my mom no not an option stay over there and you need to step away okay so I need you to stand here and face me if you'd like to participate okay stand right here why be here like is not an option I've explained to you that you're an adult and I'm conducting investigation you're repeating my investigation I I've explained you resp that it's not an option I not calling brother if he wants to call your mom that's fine but if she shows up here I'm gonna do the same thing I just told her to do stay away from us okay because she is not a part of this it's between me and you the woman began to do the sobriety tests but she kept asking questions and talking while doing them she didn't do well on the tests which was very different from how confident she seen before they didn't let her please for sympathy or her attempts to use her status affect them so you can stand right here face me we're going to stand with our feet together and our toes and our heels together just like that okay the police officer starts by telling the woman to watch the red tip of a pen common test to check eye movement and coordination the woman wonders why the test is needed and why her mom is involved she wants to handle things on her own the woman doesn't fully trust the police can you see the red tip of my finger right here yes you're going to follow with your eyes and your eyes only okay it's going to move side to side we're just going to follow with our eyes do you understand yeah that many times other times we're getting there people I mean I've been right so I think I know how it works like just keep following with your eyes and eyes oning going it go up and down now okay does it last this long yes it does it does y not matter be this long well we're not trained in DUI investigations well I mean I've been through it D that doesn't mean you're to aru I'm not arguing I'm just saying I've been through this so do you see the stimulus the red tip of my finger sometimes cops people like they shouldn't I'm just saying like they do like think have power over like other sh like it's not would you like to continue I'm the saying I'm not saying you saying like my cop to like have power over like other [ __ ] and it's not worth it so okay you see the to this yeah okay we're going to follow it's going go up and down now okay good ah pass right pass okay no we're we're going to continue okay we'll continue can I call my mom now no why why I told you a no times you not calling why why though you're an adult know why you're an adult and she is not going to be present for us okay then the officer told her to take another test during the test the officer and the woman talk about whether she should walk on a real line or Imagine One the woman questions how fair and real the test is saying there aren't clear rules she likes having clear visible boundaries the officer tries to make things work by giving different ways to do the test as we continue our exploration don't forget to like share and subscribe to stay updated with our indepth discussions so we're going to continue okay um we don't really have a line to work with in the parking lot unless you want to relocate over there but what's the what's the normal line that it's supposed to be on though well we we work with what we're given okay and we're in a business work where you're giving you're giving I pulled you over in a gas station there's no lines in our immediate area we can relocate over there the normal line though like the street line we can go on the street I would not like to go on the street I'd like to go right there there's a yellow line right there go the street though it's not stfe that's a SK a line though y get anyone anything y'all will get anyone for any little thing they on y'all get them for that so let's go on the street then I don't care about we could we could use an imaginary line right here as well you okay with that well said no actually we can do IM line cuz you're not going no can't do that I'm going to have you stand where you were no we can't do that it's not a lie it's like don't one little step off like okay would you like to move on uh normal line okay we're line like I hope that we don't I hope we're not at a new pass here we have a solid yellow line right there it's nice and straight it's about the width that we need okay or we can use an imaginary line it's not the same as that it's not the same it's not the same as that line though on the street though well we don't have to use a line on the street but if I if I still on that line you can take me to jail not dumb I've been through this I've been through this dumbass would you like to continue would like to move on to another we're not going out into the street and we're going to go out we can either use this yellow line right there or we use one of these yellow lines right here what would you rather why that's that's the normal line you do it on them or we can use an imaginary line right see right here I've given you three options okay what's the imaginary line line is a line about the width of your foot okay well I'm going to have you stand I'm I'm not to abbreviate this okay slow so I'm going to understand like what you know how you were stand ma'am will you stand right there for me where you were standing face this way but this is a Norm that's a single line and that's that's a pretend that we have a line that goes as long as we need it's going to be it's only about 9 ft long okay we're going to stand with that all half fo with that line with our left foot on that line and a right foot directly FL and he F fashion just like that could you get in that position for me just like that so do right there but I thought noral line now no use imaginary line when I instruct your beginning you to take nine he toe steps along that line okay you take a series of small steps around your lead foot just like that take nine he to to steps back okay do you have any questions for me no okay so nine here and nine now yep just how I explain it so what the [ __ ] is that my body wor camera I'm to film so when you were ready go again what are you filming you're being audio video recorded this whole time why do you film it you film everything so 9 here nine back that's right you have any questions hey but I think I we should this on a normal line cuz I off I offered you an imaginary line yellow line over there yellow line Twisted she gets twisted with a [ __ ] with top so it should get twisted with like anything if you Zep off a little tiny bit of the line it's [ __ ] twisted so it's about the width of your foot okay and there's a differ between stepping off and stepping little side okay so it's about the width of your foot all right so when you ready to begin so it's y the tong right the T yep just side side demonstrate so this is my first one right your first step your first step is with your left foot 7 8 n right right do forever nine so how is that wrong that's more than then the officer trying to maintain control and ensure the Test's Integrity insists on a specific way to perform the test demonstrating the challenge of balancing Authority with empathy in such interactions however the officer introduces a new component of the test involving touching the nose with the eyes closed you know I've been standing with our toes I want to make sure you're able to safely drive home top sale okay it's a it's a way down here it's not it's all Sunny okay so feet toes together just like that okay can you make two por fingers just like this and bring them back down your side okay when I instruct you to you're going to close your eyes on your back okay you don't

here no okay okay eyes closed right or eyes open eyes closed the entire time okay are you ready yep I'm ready left right and left done the woman questions the relevance and necessity of this test signaling a breakdown in communication and understanding between them and the officer as the test concludes the officer reveals a judgment on the woman's character hinting at a broader societal issue of entitlement and behavior however the woman became increasingly resistant and began questioning the officer's instructions she accused the officer of making up the test and expressed frustration when asked to repeat the steps the situation escalated when the officer attempted to arrest her for failing to comply with the test and possibly for being under the influence right you are going to be placed on us for D place your hands behind your back no I'm not do not resist me okay place your hands behind your back I you all mom away stop stop it stop it put your hands together she you're getting resistance stay back stay back I'm not you stay back she's getting charged with it I did everything everything everything stop [ __ ] let the [ __ ] go get it walk to the back of the car stop

arrested her left me I'm leaving okay you anything for me no let's check our cuffs yeah I didn't get nasty I tried I walk step out why cuz I think you undid your cuffs step out no I didn't turn that way then why do it matter cuz I'm checking your handcuffs now turn that way yeah no I did like don't of me then like go of me I'm not resisting I pulling away is resisting hey she's a Nat's ass away from going for a really that's fo why for no reason why why did for no reason why on my car the woman resisted arrest refusing to put her hands behind her back and arguing with the officer she claimed to have done everything asked of her even though she was not cooperating the officer warned her that resisting arrest could lead to additional charges during this confrontation her entitlement became even more apparent she claimed to have passed all the tests and demanded to speak to her mother right I passed everything I passed everything now I passed everything though so I passed I passed though why but I pass but I pass so why can't I talk my mom let me talk to her for one second let me talk to her then let me talk to her [ __ ] let me talk to her yo get my car please get in the car get in the car please Mom get in the car my car please I'll send you the toe sheet all right she reeks of alcohol I go to field spr cuz I'm going to tell you right now she did he's a they just strong armed her and you witnessed it all you seen it yes she resisted no no she did not resist she just said no and then all she say is that's why he just checked her you want to listen or do you want to keep talking too tight that's why he checked resisting is pulling pushing anything active like that she had active resistance against him no he didn't come on size he's up 500 lb to 90 lb if I have you in handcuffs and you're pulling away from put you in hand you know what he's pulling away from because he's got him so tight that's why he just checked him again they weren't tight out of them she slipped of them it's watch and she was I watched it he's stronger than the out of he 500 lb to her 90 lb he threw up against the backing did all this [ __ ] to her I watched it and you stood there and witnessed it too yeah I helped him or take her into custody he no he I don't even want him driving the out of her told nothing that officer did a violation I watched her she's standing there doing this you guys did all kinds of tests on her she pulling when she did the walkin turn she stepped off the line when she did the finger to nose she missed her nose she failed to put her need to explain the arrest revealed a stark contrast between the young woman's perception of the situation and the reality enforced by the law her belief that she could negotiate her way out of legal consequences or call on her mother for assistance highlighted a profound sense of enti ement even as the officers checked the handcuffs for tightness and ensured her safety she and her mother continued to dispute the officer's actions accusing them of unnecessary Force ultimately she faced charges including DUI resisting arrest possession of alcohol by a person under 21 and refusal to submit to testing that's the end of our cases about what happens when entitled teens make mistakes it's a big reminder to all of us about being careful and making smart choices these cases show us just how quickly things can go wrong what do you think about this this please share your thoughts in the comments below thanks for watching see you in the next video
