next case involving coun Lucas Chase who learned the hard way that he could get arrested if there was a need to and without regard to his status well I'm your boss so that should be interesting can't wait to have that conversation with the mayor and the chief are you serious I am serious watch over a good job on August the 14th 2022 a patrol officer noticed a car with its brake light out and pulled it over to investigate it turned out that the driver identified as Lucas Chase was severely intoxicated and very non-compliant for a man like him who was expected to know better he was about to learn how crooked the politician was I'm stopping you cuz uh your brake lamp on this side doesn't light up when you step on your brakes and then your high mounted one is very very dim okay so I'm not sure if you were aware of that at all I wasn't aware of that so so you got your license there I'll take that okay and then do you have any proof of insurance at all I don't on me okay do you have insurance I do okay do you maybe have like an email from your insurance company or anything like that potentially okay where you coming from tonight uh I was going from work okay where you work at the meler okay didn't know that mael tainer was open this late it I work all every day of the week all right say cuz it looks like that one's expired cuz it says 731 of2 and it's I believe it's the 14th now yep 14th of August all right I'll let you look for that um how much alcohol have you had tonight I've had two beers two beers okay all right what time do you think that last one was at I don't know 12:00 12:00 all righty all right why don't you keep looking for that insurance and I'll be right back all right thank you oh that's just the payment date okay all right do there anything that shows the like effective date that's I have okay I know that uh Progressive 2 also has the app um I don't have that okay I'm sorry are you able to download it at all not right at moment to try not that I'm able to I if you go to the App Store instead of settings right above it there you go okay I'll let you continue with that then all right okay after checking his information the officer noticed that Lucas was on the phone with the city mayor who was telling him to walk away potentially depends on say I guess yeah I would go that route and then just okay um just yeah um just tell I think that's where I just say just called the mayor and he's right here with me so okay I just locked the door and cl all that you can and say I got insurance but I just don't have Pap sounds good all right thank you sir y all right thanks Randy okay the mayor okay I guess why would you call the mayor at 1:00 in the morning well I'm a city council rep okay all right he's my buddy okay so any luck with the insurance then no I get it pulled up that's why I called him okay I mean I just don't have the app on my phone so no that's understandable so well I know that you said you had two beers and I can smell the alcohol coming out of the car so I just want to make sure that you're going to be safe to drive so would you be willing to do a field sub exercises sure perfect you need me to so let's have you jump out then there we go all right I'll have you after a field sobriety and breathalyzer test it was determined that Lucas was driving under the influence of alcohol but throughout the interaction he kept trying to intimidate the officers and threaten their jobs do you know know what the legal limit is in the state of Wisconsin I do indeed what would that be 8 08 okay and again you said that you feel like you're safe to drive I do okay so right now you're double the legal limit okay okay so I'll have you keep your hands behind your back you're going to be under arrest for operating a motor vehicle while under the influence you can just relax all right a little too tight at all NOP okay I'm going to double lock them so they don't get any tighter all right we will walk back towards the front of this squad car I would love to see what you're showing me though on my car what what do you mean it should be fun at City Council meetings right I don't go to City Council meetings well I'm your boss so that should be interesting [Music] right sir I don't think that's an appropriate discussion to have right at this moment okay okay should be interesting assing my lights don't work but you want to show me that they don't work can't wait to have that conversation with the mayor and the chief okay I'll have you walk over to this side okay that should be fine let's have you stand right here for right now then careful getting in all right I'll have you look to the left that way going put your seat belt on Sir what would you like me to do with the vehicle you want to lock it up bring the keys with you would you drive it up to my parents house right at the top of the street that'd be wonderful I can't drive I'd like to see the lights not working actually if you wouldn't mind doing that well right now you're in custody so you're going to stay right where you're at okay I didn't say anything about myself I asked you to do it okay I'm asking you what you like me to do with your vehicle if you want me to secure it for you I can do that no it's fine okay so I don't remember if you put your window up at all so would you like us to just secure your vehicle and then have your keys brought back with you sure okay is there anything else you would like inside your vehicle no no okay I would still like to see my car lights not working well it'll be recorded on my squad camera that's public information you can do an open records request if you so choose you're funny spend it if a detectable amount of a restricted controlled substance is in your blood so with that being said will you submit to an evidentiary chemical test of your blood yes or no I don't know what that means so will you submit to a blood draw no okay where were you stationed at when you saw my lights that weren't working I was behind you okay good answer you quite a ways away I'm private property were you on private property what where were you stationed when you pulled me over or came after me I wasn't stationed I was patrolling I was driving oh despite Lucas's refusal for a blood draw he was taken to the hospital for it anyway after the cops got a search warrant and all the while Lucas kept threatening their jobs and called himself their boss he would soon come to realize that these were not the type of cops who would let him go just because of his status we're going to May monomon for what reason uh this is where I'll be drafting my search warrant uh for your blood draw oh are you serious I am serious I watch over your job what was that headquarters will be 23 monom all right follow my lieutenant he will take you inside okay I'd like to see that warrant before anything he's got to work on it hold on hold on he's going to back his vehicle up so he has to pull his vehicle up in order to open the ambulance thing so we'll wait till he does that and you'll get a copy of his warrant once he's done with it what judge is on now uh I believe judge Peterson is the on call tonight really [Music] yep going to go to this first room on the right right here why do we need to do this cuz this is the room where we conduct our blood drw but why what's the reason what's that why what do you mean why why do we need to do a blood draw we do a legal blood draw for all ows okay so you you you've been arrested for omwi first offense yep so now officer call stated that it's a Samson and call I can't wait to talk to the counil about that one may should be good and the chief too be wonderful okay sir I would hope that you handle this with a little bit of Grace a and a and a little bit of professionalism well you guys haven't done the same for me so why should I start we've been nothing but professional with you let's start it so can't wait okay all right careful getting in to lean across put your seat belt back on all right eventually he was charged with operating while intoxicated with a 937 citation attached and a citation for refusing a blood draw next is the case of Karen turer a Port Authority commissioner who tried to use her position to get her daughter out of trouble with the police I am the commissioner of the port authority and I'm heading up over 4,000 police okay so if there's a problem I think have there's no problem now don't call me Miss I'm commissioner thank you commissioner yes I will be in with the commissioner of police of tenly the daughter of a Port Authority commissioner was stopped by the police when they noticed her license plates were questionable the interaction was going well until the girl decided to call her mother who turned out to be a crooked politician who was ready to influence the system to get her daughter out of trouble [Applause] hello you put this window [Applause] down how you doing today good hey I'm just stopping you for two minor reasons okay the first one is if you're a New Jersey driver you actually can't have front end and windows in New Jersey the second reason is your license plate bracket the silver bracket with some writing on it it's obscuring the whole outside the plate I actually could barely tell what State light from I think it's the bottom is that true okay I can just read like the bottom part of it and I can't read the bottom of exactly yeah you just have your license on your registration insurance check that [Music] [Applause] [Music] out I'm not sure it's registered to your boyfriend no no this is my boyfriend this is my Callister parents but I'm not sure where registered to your parents okay do you live in Nevada yeah the car is registered to my mom and where do you live I live you live in ten we're just coming to visit our friend who's in from London ah I see who's not in the car you're not from London I live in London my I'm here all right so I'm not sure where you but I'm not sure I'm happy to spend time trying to figure it out just the insurance card and the registration card and where do you live Miss I live in new here where do I live yeah here's another friend just taking a wild [Applause] guess where you guys head it to today just look out walk just to hang out a little bit yeah all right nice day for that I'm sorry I don't know where [Applause] looks like it's from the Toyota dealership that that bracket yeah it's probably been on it as long as you've had the car [Music] [Applause] I know my insurance [Applause] is I can't hear you I'm sorry I'm not sure where my doctor is are I'm register I have a car insurance here all state that's an old registration I don't know where my one is but you but you did register it yeah my mom did it through my mom about that bom okay that can you pull it up on your phone like just your insurance I know obviously the registration you [Applause] can't you want me to call my mom under if she wants to trans send it to you [Applause] that's from the city of Chicago what is it like a permit or something or you had it registered in Chicago yeah [Applause] we're just coming from your house in tly okay is everybody staying with you here is everything all right yeah we're just I'm trying to get to the lookout go we're trying I'm trying after checking records the officers found some very incriminating information that made the matter worse for the owners of the car St out here for a second when we talk to you in the back right back [Applause] there so come over here this is the situation this car has been on register for 2 years and you're driving it are you kidding me I'm not kidding September 26 PM so it's not like yesterday yeah yeah quite some time right so what is it all right so and that's what I was stopping you one other reason why I was stopping you see that Henderson it needs to the license plate needs to be fully readable okay okay you can't have anything blocking it you can see how kind of it's hard to read the word NADA unless you're really on top of it or you're familiar with what the a place look like eyes man you got good eyes so the whole bottom is obstructed too I'm sure it says something I didn't even look underneath there so a very minor reason if it was just that I probably would have just given you a warning now 99.9% chance of it yeah all right but unfortunately uh we can't have an unregistered car that's operating on the street okay so what are what is just walk me through this you can I will walk you through that's why I'm out here all right um so the car has to be impounded to the police impound until a valid registration can be made also in this case since she can exhibit the valid insurance card I don't even know if this car is insured I'm begging to say it isn't because insurance companies check to make sure cars are registered okay so when it lapses by about a month or so sometimes it doesn't get caught but for about 2 years I'd be hardress to believe an insurance company's insuring a car that was unregistered for 2 years okay I think we're trying we're proper try to like verify yeah so you would just need to bring basically to get this car back you would need to bring down the current insurance card and the current registration card for getting it reregistered that can you walk through the what the that so yeah D it down the no no no I I put it on a flatbed I put on a police flat bed and I they take it to the impound all right and they're going to be doing that now what Fe feet yeah you're going to have to ask the guy when he comes here it's somewhere around $100 and then it's about $20 per day that you leave it there so it kind of behooves you to take it out sooner than later if you get that done yeah there are unfortunately traffic tickets that go along with this as well okay all right and unfortunately you're driving so you're going to have to take the grun of that um that's just how it works I can't issue a ticket to somebody that's in the passenger even though it's her mom's registered vehicle what kind of sh 3 seconds unregistered vehicle okay the unclear plate equipment violations [Music] essentially okay there there none of them have points or anything associated with them that would transfer your massachus license I can't give you a general area of fines they're not like ridiculous off the charts um but they kind of go hand in hand with the problems we got going on my hands are kind of power as far as that and you've already alerted the yeah well I'm just kind of giving you a heads up yeah you just they have in town coming for I want to give you guys a second to kind of figure out what you want to do there's obviously four of you in the car so you have a couple options um you can have somebody come pick you up since one of the passengers lives inen toy I don't know if she might have contacts with a car that might be able to just swing up here take some 2 minutes and pick you guys up or you can call I've seen somebody call it Ubers although we're kind of in like a semi remote rural area here giving them an exact address yeah that might be the best bet call somebody and then kind of just up from here and you want to probably call him go back to car in a second okay um and make that happen as the last resort I could afford to a courtesy transport m to the police department but that doesn't really solve I don't think that's you guys no house call what's that no house call no house calls I could give you a transport to the police department but I can't I can't get you guys back to your house as the occupants of the vehicle were moving their belongings out of the car to be towed their mother Karen showed up and immediately tried to use her position to bully the cops I can only tell you New Jersey I have no idea about I if I told you something it might be completely incorrect New Jersey I can tell you 100% what what the problem I have no idea what about you're going have to call their DMV unfortunately not till Monday it's the holiday weekend so all right so you guys are all set driver have what do we need how do we get the car back valid registration valid insurance car how do they know that this is her car like don't you need to give us a receipt or something like how are they going to know that this one this is a receipt this goes on file hi I'm Karen Turner hi I'm a resident here you go we don't I don't I don't need that okay fine I'm here you're just here you're just here as the rider right no I'm not okay I'm here as a concerned Citizen and friend of the mayor and been in ten for 20 years I take full responsibility for them and what is the reason they were pulled over the driver has all the information he'll tell you no no no no no I need to know no you don't need to know okay you are not involved here you're picking them up no no no I'm involved trust me I'm not going to tell you he's the driver with the automobile he's over 18 that's you need to know um okay okay if you can we don't need to see credentials here okay we've you need it if you can give me a little bit of space here what this are you a commissioner I am the commissioner one of the Commissioners and I'm heading up do you have an ID with that that is my ID and that is my business card I am the commissioner of the port authority and I'm heading up over 4,000 police officer okay so if there's a problem I think I have there's no problem well I think there's a problem registered vehicle okay let's hear what is why were they pulled over first of all now don't call me Miss I'm commissioner thank you commissioner all du respect why they pulled over all due respect yep why driver will no no no I need to know the car is getting tow now why is the car getting told go ask him no no I I'm asking you're the person who ordered it and trust me miss this does not involve you 1% yeah it does it does it does because I'm picking them up and I'm offering to take responsibility for them and you can't even tell me the charges I'm also an attorney so I think if you can't tell me what is the problem that's fine why is it such a difficulty to say why they're being pull over and why the CR being to because everything has already been explained I know but I know why why because this is impacting me cuz I got four people who are coming back to my house including people who live in New Haven attending Yale graduate school a PhD student and I don't know why it's so difficult to say what the problem is this is impacted me on Easter Sunday I got to take four people back to New I'll be honest with you I be frank with you yeah I want to know what the problem is it's more of the way you just approached me and and your demean you know what okay that's I'm I'm being honest I want to know why I just don't appreciate your demeanor being very demanding with me no I'm asking you a question which is not being answered but it doesn't need to be answered it's irrelevant you know what if you'd like to read my report you can come down to the Police Department Records on Monday and you can get a copy of it and you can't I am under un there is no you have no right to know what's going on this is no I do explain to me why because these are four people that I have to take responsibility why do you have to take resp they're all adults my daughter and she has she's a back passenger she's a backseat passenger and there's a problem with you describing it because you don't feel confident why why these people are being pulled over your daugh has not been summoned she was not the driver this is not her vehicle it's not your vehic I'm sorry but this is not going to be if you have a problem explaining what the problem is and why their car is being confiscated then we have a problem trust me I will be in with the commissioner police of tenly take a step back take a step back for you can't even describe what the problem take a step back for me I can't move back any farther I keep moving back farther and you keep moving closer to me because you can't take a step back a sentence together the problem is because I'm not because of the your demeanor the officers tried to reason with Karen but she continued her attack on them but the cops just didn't back down they were not just about to let her

home in ten I don't see how that's relevant but for this situation okay very smart I know very smart maybe you need a few more cats to go here [Music] welcome in the end because of the backlash Karen

claimed that she was being harassed after being pulled over by the police yes I have insurance are you asking me that because I'm black no ma'am you're asking me that because I'm black yes you are every white cops in a black community y harassing me on September the 11th 2022 officers pulled over a politician over a light law violation but she became hostile to the officer hello offer the chin please reason told you your passenger headlight is out okay that's not a reason to pull me over yes ma'am it is do you have your driver's license impr of insurance on you ma'am you just Whi a a you

officer Monro CH Poli I was coming to come back up my my partner just to make sure she was okay you need to identify yourself that's probably well you were in the you were in the middle of a conversation so how going to go and beud I don't know who you are I don't know if you're going to harm me or nothing else I'm not here to harm you ma'am I've done nothing I pulling black people over for a for my headlight going out while I'm driving and she literally did an illegal U-turn so y'all can come follow me in a black community y'all white cops in a black community y'all harassing me we're not harassing you man we I'm pretty sure you are I'm pretty sure you are that's my registration the only reason she asked you know have you never borrowed your friend car or anything like that why would you ask a black person you wouldn't ask nobody white if if they own a car we asked everybody you shouldn't ask nobody if they own a car like why would I be driving somebody else's vehic because I've used my I've used my partn P y'all can pull up the registration you know whose name is saying y'all know that ma'am we haven't been rooted at all have I raed have I raised my have I raised my boys at all man listen I already deal with the Chad Police Department I'm telling you man I know my rights okay I know my rights we haven't been rude at all ma'am I don't understand why y Whi around to follow me because my headlights are out and y'all do this in the black community all the time your your job is to solve violent crime not and traffic stops yes no actually it's not title 55 under the state under the State title does not give you the right to do that unless I'm participating in doing it's a traffic violation that's not a traffic violation if it went out while I was driving ma'am how was I how do I know that it went out while you were driving how do I know that it's out if I if I am driving in the middle of the night and that's are you kidding me that's what y'all doing out in the community is pulling black people over if a headlight is out we usually go ahead and give warnings and also coupons to go ahead and fix headlights so I don't understand how you automatically going to driv after a long day hop literally pulls literally I'm minding my business literally looped around at an illegal uturn could have hit somebody or anything to come follow behind me Mary it's not Mary it's Marie Marie I apologize okay Marie like I said I'm officer mon I have not raised my voice at you at all I've been very calm tired of being harassed in my own neighborhood I

glad that we're actually going to go ahead and meet properly and like I've said before not properly like I've said before I have not raised my voice at you at all I have not been rude to you at all so um the argument continued as Marie tried to manipulate the police by playing the race card your partner just literally whipped around and did illegal U okay to come follow me come follow me she's doing her her job her job is ass s violent crime which chat Police Department solves 9% of violent crime in this city and the majority 57% of all things that y'all do are nonviolent nonviolent crimes that y'all harass people for you've got a lot of facts do you look those up I got a lot of facts CU I'm a community activist and I see this is the kind of stuff that happens in the black community all the time One Cop one cop pulls over five cops will pull up this doesn't happen since you're an activist do you understand that usually traffic stops for police officers are the most dangerous cuz we don't know who we're pulling over it's not the most dangerous y'all beat the [ __ ] out of a lot of people you don't know chat history like I do okay every just about every interaction I've ever fought for a community person that has been beaten by the cops tased by the cops and everything that's happened in the traffic stop and that's outside of the scope of what actually your job is for and that's under title 55 which there's already something going on with that with other people in in the chief of police and in the city council so I'm not even going to get into that like I said I promise you I know I know the law and I know my rights probably better than you do so violent crime 9% bro y'all not stopping nobody from doing anything violent in our city we got shootings and stabing going on y'all can't do nothing about that but y'all can pull people over and traffic St fck you talking about we have 14 black people shot on maau y'all didn't even show the [ __ ] up y'all

please take that off if you would I'm not ma'am you need to take that charge off cuz it says 0523 right there it also blocks the state and your county do you see how you have to pull it back though

stop yeah just more of a long continuous breath not so much in the front end there sir you to me blow up a balloon yeah well I'm care they're they're kind of I've never done this before this is cool in the end the mayor was arrested on two misdemeanor charges of operating a vehicle while intoxicated in a similar vein here's the case of City councelor Carlos Garcia who got into it with the cops and acted like a fool on camera I don't believe you have jurisdiction okay you could I'm not here to sit and argue with you sir what you do and don't believe not out of jurisdiction this is Downtown Phoenix you're out of jurisdiction I just need to look into then will you and figure out how on September the 10th 2019 officers noticed an expired registration and pulled the driver over the owner of the car happened to be City councelor Carlos Garcia who immediately started questioning the jurisdiction of the officer all in a bid to get himself out of [Applause] trouble hey good morning sir my name isaro of the AC Police Department the reason why I pulled you over today is cuz your PL say they're suspended um so real quick what jurisdiction do you have what's that what jurisdiction do you have well I'm a police officer sir do you mind rolling down the passenger side window for my partner yes yes you do mine yes okay okay well I'm it's just for my safety and his sir would do you mind showing me your driver's license registration proof Insurance why are you pulling over because your license plates are suspended sir do you have any weapons in the vehicle I should know about what's your name my name is Officer armenta sir badge number 567 I'm with the AC Police Department okay I don't understand what jurisdiction you have on so okay I'm a police officer through State of Arizona sir I'm Arizona Post certified okay which means I have jurisdiction you know in the state of Arizona okay so like I said the reason why I pulled you over is because your license plate did return suspended okay what do you mean like it doesn't have oh well it could be a a number of different things sir that's something that you know myself and you have to figure out okay your license plate on the vehicle yes so primarily primarily it's suspended due to lack of financial responsibility so insurance so did you change insurance companies or something and did not report it to the MVD my car it's my D car it's your dad's car yes okay well like I said that's primarily the respon run my plate well sir we have jurisdiction like I said in this area outside of I understand sir and this is still within our jurisdiction okay like I said I have jurisdiction in the state of Arizona I am an Arizona certified police officer okay and so right now I'm asking you for license registration and proof Insurance please I don't believe you have jurisdiction okay you could I'm not here to sit and argue with you sir what you do and don't believe I'm telling you exactly the facts and I need your license registration proof insurance I have a meeting to go to so I prefer you do this as Qui as possible sure well let me check things out okay [Applause] what's your meeting for [Applause] what's that that's the insurance this the insurance okay sir let me check things out I'll be right back okay just stay in the vehicle for [Applause] me let's see after checking the papers the officers found that their suspicions were true they broke the news to Carlos but he was not happy it okay sir real quick I got a couple things for you Ben okay can I get a good social real quick for identifiable purposes no worries all right so this is what I have for you here sir okay so I have you a citation all right well I'm going to go ahead and explain why you do that so right here I have a citation for you okay this is for the display of the Mi suspended plates and this is for no mandatory Insurance okay I have insurance so for whatever reason I don't know the whereabouts of that but your insurance policy was canceled in August of this year so I don't know who or why they did that but it was canceled is August of this year September year PID for from September 11th which is tomorrow okay well I'm not here I'm not here to argue with you sir I called the insurance company and they confirmed that it was canceled okay so I'm not here to argue with you on that I verified it through the insurance company as well so I don't you know I do apologize what your paperwork says but I confirmed it with the insurance company okay that your policy was canceled as of August of this year so what you have to do to get this fixer is my partner is going to take the license plate off of your vehicle okay but an easy way to get this fixed is you can go to the MVD show them proof of insurance and you'd be able to get that plate back okay and that is how you or your father would go about doing this okay the know thing I what I need explanation is what you were doing marked at the Bank of America running plates out Circle oh sir we passed this already okay we passed this I I've explained to you I've explained to you my jurisdiction in this in the state of Arizona okay we passed that

when they've got their registration she's trying to make her Spurs but it's a big mistake well this one is the expired one but well it that's make it it take two seconds yeah we're going to make sure that she pays the price for being disrespectful and I just want youed a witness and know that yeah the registration was right there and she deliberately chose to write the ticket she came up she said the first look there's a video of it so be quiet there's a video of what you said there is and I've got a video of what you said right what she said was I I don't have it she iMed I write your citation she went right back she never said anything she went straight back she I denied the she's straight back right the I've lived here for 25 years I've represented your un I've got no interest in listening to you young lady talk to my sergeant sergeant if you don't mind if St over off the road yeah just a second come on yeah Mr hiy like I said you know I've represented you guys in Union discussions my son is a C I'm friends with everybody in the Police Club this is the first time anybody has been disrespectful to me and for what reason I could care less if they give write me a ticket I could care less I just pay you don't think I got the money M it's the manner and the nature of it okay and like I said Sergeant van will be over here to talk to you about her her uh interaction outrageous yeah why would you do that why I mean of all the people to do it to yeah I understand sir and you know I I say you uh you know i' I've been with the uh negotiations with you and I understand where you're you're coming from I don't ask for special treatment but I don't expect to get treated like a punk let me go talk to her and see well it's a waste of time she's got it in her head I know exactly who she is B only told me exactly who she is that's fine 7even years might not turn into B finally the sergeant arrived but he didn't side with the man at all it was only getting Crazier by the minute St in your car just back to station you can go to the station yep go to the station hey Martin you get that thing on yeah I have to leave it on all all right so here's thing she

registration it's in the car there somewh she goes off she writes me ticket she brings me back a sitation I said there it is okay but she still gives me okay all right she's being fun and the thing is I appreciate that I back you guys is Left Right set I understand that I do I do I trust me I do know that I don't expect better treatment but I don't expect worse treatment if that's how you treat people that's unacceptable I understand I understand your frustration and I can get the video and I can play it to I got I understand it but you know the thing is I don't take kind she knew exactly cuz I said to her I said you right away I said yeah I straight away right in the the tickets why well she's a traffic officer that's what we do but I understand I understand that's what she do it's not what to do and you know it listen she has a job to do I'm not listen I I'm going to look at I'm going to look at the video I I understand your concerns I'm going to look at the video I notified everybody in the chain of command right now that's what I was doing that's why I was not coming here I thought you were going to meet me at the station but it's not a big deal I I'm going to she's going right now to dock her video right now she's going to dock her video and if there's problems you will be the first to know I know the difference is I'll do something about it okay I understand yeah I'm going to take your complaint is what I'm doing that's the first step know how can you write a ticket for no registration when you've got a registration I mean as if I got $150,000 car I've lived here for 25 years and I hav registered a car why do that I understand what well you tell me what the point is it it's just a state statute that's she enforces she's not the only traffic officer that you give a ticket for that I really don't leave the office I understand what you're saying I understand you video on there but the fact is nobody in their right mind would give a ticket for that to me no I I I understand what you're saying and you producing it she probably should have taken that ticket away but I'm going to find out what exactly occurred because she had a beer in a bonnet cuz she thought she was on a big Power Trip guess what she's been there seven years she had get my I'll make sure well I'll I'll uh I'll get going on all right listen that's your prerogative I'm going to get I'm want to get started right okay I understand you don't treat people that are treated and supported your like that I I I understand where you're coming from bare minimum of respect is yes sir no sir not a word of it straight up talking to me like I'm a piece of get back in your car which is I'm she stand she got a car door open and I'm leaning against here talking to someone okay bring in case you get hit by traffic just being difficult just being cocky I do understand why you're but it isn't it's a bad interaction yeah it definitely it definitely it definitely seemed like it was a bad how difficult is it to come to me and say you're doing 57 give us your license and your registration why get into immediately like that when she knew exactly who she was talk to if that's how no one thing people people in New Town at that's how in the end the man was given a citation for failing to provide his registration he also ended up dropping the Congressional Campaign moving on to the narcissistic mayor who believed he could intimidate a cop with his power I'm getting screamed at by one of your cops who's the chief now who doesn't know who I am he's just screaming at me to turn around incredibly rude with the mayor right now yes sir you let him can you let him pass I'll go to the back of line unfortunately on the 24th of September 2022 the cops stopped a mayor in his car after impeding traffic they would eventually find out how arrogant this man was thank you [Music] sir hey Bob yeah hey I'm getting screamed at by one of your cops who's the chief now who's the chief yeah Lynn's still the chief I got a guy who doesn't who doesn't know who I am he's just screaming at me to turn around incredibly rude so I'm going to uh figure out how to report this he still the chief until this week yeah yeah he's the chief through we uh they over all right Li to the chief say how do I file a complaint against one of our officers you only have actually you f it directly B GT my ID is 2348 sir 2348 this guy just went nuts on me cuz I turned into a parking lot yeah he's right now he's right down my ID and stuff there's no idea where I am yeah I know you who you are Mr Mayor hello sir officer vote with the w Police Department how are you sir officer officer yes sir I I assume is trying to get yes sir and that you're with the mayor right now yes sir can you let him can you let him pass no I'll go to the back of the line cannot unfortunately no there's a line and there's no signage or anything it looks like there's a wreck I turned into a neighborhood cleanup and I called here after this guy told me I'm no longer welcome at the neighborhood cleanup and that now he is going to be the uh I guess the authority on who can do a neighbor clean up and drop things off and can't which is definitely not what we do at City Hall and that's why you're on the phone right now Bob that's the complaint not that I need to go in the back of the line is that this guy tried to kick me out of what we appropriate for neighborhood cleanups based on his attitude and not on any facts got it all right all right may all right officer name again officer vote can you spell that please yes sir V GT okay thank you officer okay and um mayor where's this happening this is at The Machinist Hall there is one of the neighbor cleanups I got a bunch of stuff from one of my rentals coming through I noticed that this guy didn't know uh who I was I tried to ask him questions uh and then also I just wanted to see how he would talk to Citizens and this is how we're being being in treated all right thank you be I I will talk to thank you I get your phone number sir he had no idea things were about to take a different turn once he became rude to the officers my opinion was like he just kind of like don't you know who I am yeah I didn't recognize who he was did you recognize who he was initially okay I just didn't catch it you can't win you're in a no win situation right no well and that's whether or not you're the mayor you're not special you're just like every other some people think that they are gotta and and that's usually a lot of the politicians that I've met they're like bow down and I'm like this is man ain't want to right you just tell you the way I see it and if you like it fine if you don't you have that right yep fair enough all right well hey I appreciate it yeah I am too so I was s right there yeah well yeah and you notic that I didn't try to interfere I just kind of no I appreciate that so I like said just being just being honest show you are responsible all I all I care about is that everybody's honest about what happened and uh then they can figure that out but so I appreciate you letting me talk to you and get your number and I'm not going to say anything I thought it was really that he called the city manager all Witnesses recalled a different story from his it was obvious that the man seemed to think he was too good to be arrested after breaking the law but he was very wrong here's your ID backer did you get a here's your ID backer uh a mailer I I don't know if I got a mailer or not why because it's only for a certain residential area right and I'm I'm in that area so okay so why are you for what do you mean like like my property it's for the resid right yeah right so it's from your home yes okay if it's from your home where where's your it's right there I got to go get in line but feel probably won make it now where's your stuff right there three mattresses and like other um just
