From an officer's attempt to arrest a Navy Seal with a stolen shopping cart on the beach to a YouTuber challenging police authority at a city council meeting, here are five times corrupt cops got embarrassed by higher authority. Starting with a shopping cart incident that escalated into a surprising confrontation. Play this game for you. Get your hands off me right the now. You me mother. I told you get your hands off me. You can keep piece of [ __ ] You can do this the easy way or the you you're breaking my rights. I'm a private citizen, mother. I'm a Navy Seal. You're This is Officer Stanley from the Cocoa Beach Police Department. On April 17th, 2024, Officer Stanley observed an individual pushing a public shopping cart along the beach, suspecting it to be stolen. The man asserts ownership of Publix, significant parts of the city, and the shopping cart. He states that his belongings were stolen, and declines to provide identification. He identifies himself as both a Navy Seal and a private citizen, asserting his authority to make a citizen's arrest. He consistently disregards the officer's instructions, intensifying the situation.

So, if you guys want to haul me in for questioning about my cart that I've already talked about many times, it's a beach cart. Okay? It's a beach cart.

I'll know everything about you by the end of the day. No probable cause to arrest me. You have no right to put handcuffs on me. No reason to put me in cuffs. I sure do. You're going to have to put your gloves on. Officer Stanley draws his taser as the Navy Seal steps toward him aggressively, but chooses not to deploy it, instead opting to detain him manually. Despite this, Seal continues to resist both verbally and physically, accusing the officer of assault and making inflammatory remarks. For those who don't know, possession of a stolen shopping cart is classified as a misdemeanor under state law. Wait to see how this encounter concludes. Don't touch me. All right, sir.

You're [ __ ] The man is arrested and charged with simple assault, resisting arrest and possession of stolen property. Throughout the arrest, the man continues to insult the officer and threatens to destroy his career. The shopping cart was later returned to Publix. If you think this was the only cop who got embarrassed by higher authority, wait until you watch this next case. No, it's public, bro. It's public meeting, bro. That's noise, bro. This is a public meeting. This is the freedom of the press. There's people that want to see this with the Corona virus especially guys wants to start. Don't be taking my picture. Don't be taking disturbing him. I'm going to I'm going to whack him and I'm going to wind up. This is Sergeant Justin Lamb from the Lavallet Police Department. On March 2nd, 2020, a YouTuber, Chris Angulo, attended a city council meeting in Lavallet, New Jersey to question the mayor about an officer. After being refused answers, Mr. Anglo began recording the meeting. Exercising his First Amendment rights. Watch how the mayor reacts and causes an embarrassment for the cops. Like walking dog in a beach. Some towns allow, some towns don't. No, we're talking. This is freedom at the press, bro. You can't You have a prior approval. Okay, let me in the meeting. Can Can I please uh have prior approval for my constitutional rights? No, thank you. It's for a meeting. No, that it's public, bro. It's public meeting, bro. It's noise, bro. This is a public meeting. This is the freedom of the press. There's people that want to see this with Corona virus especially. Guys wants to start. Look at him. Don't be taking my picture, sir. Don't be taking my picture. You're disturbing the meeting. Get rid of him. I'm going to I'm going to whack him and I'm going to wind up. You're disturbing the meeting, sir. You're disturbing the meeting. I'm I'm a lunatic for wanting my constitutional rights not to be made by appointment. Your constitutional rights by appointment only. Coming to you live from Lavallet. Okay. Yeah. Just got up here for Mr. Angula was in the meeting. I was told he was disturbing the meeting by filming. I I did not disturb the No, I didn't disturb the meeting one day. While I'm just Listen, man. I just showed up here. But but I but I'll tell you, I was I was here. I haven't recorded. I didn't disturb the meeting at all. While he told while he told me I couldn't record. Yeah. He didn't even tell me to leave. He said there was a police officer coming. Yeah. I mean you can see I mean if you can read the English language posted right there in plain block letters. Okay. So you're supposed to just obey one second. You could write you could write anything you want on a sign. That's that's unconstitutional. It's a freedom in the press. This is totally unconstitutional. You can't you can't just put up a sign. Yeah. I'm robbing him now. You can't you can't put up a sign and just say whatever you want. Take away my constitutional rights. Okay. The mayor contacted the police asserting that Mr. Anglo required prior approval to record, a claim rooted in policy rather than law. For those who don't know, the First Amendment protects the right to record on taxpayer funded property. Sergeant Justin Lamb alleged that Mr. Angulo approached him aggressively with cameras. However, both Mr. Angulo and video evidence challenged this claim, pointing to potential bias or a premeditated intent to arrest. Mr. Angelo and others emphasized that public meetings are open to recording under the First Amendment and he was never lawfully instructed to leave the meeting. Watch how the encounter ends. Why is that funny? All right. Well, it only You can post anything you want. You can post anything you want. You're laughing at my You're laughing at the First Amendment building. You're laughing at the First Amendment. That's a little bit of a problem. Apparently, you were disturbing. No, no, no. I No, I wasn't. That's why we're here. This guy Well, this guy is disturbed. Who's that? Listen, this is this is what they're supposed to do. I I'll cut to the chase. Don't tell me what my job is, bro. Okay. No, I didn't say you. I said that. I said this is what they're supposed to do. Okay. What What are they supposed to do? All right. Don't, you know, don't square off with me. I'm trying to help you out here. Okay. Here. Cool, man. This is what they're supposed to do right now. If they really want to do this, they're supposed to take some paper and some scotch tape and then I'm done. What does that paper and scotch tape for? I don't get it. Cuz I could stand here right here, but this this is still unlawful. This is this is this is just a policy. I I could I could walk right back in there. This is not a law. This is not a law. What are you saying? You want to arrest What are you shaking your head for? Yes. Arrest him. Don't worry about what we're doing, man. I'm worried. This is This is This is taking away freedom of the press. You don't need to make an appointment. He's supposed to He's out of here. I mean, what do you guys want to do? You can He was in the in the meeting there. He was asked to leave. A prior permit as I was sorry. This is what happened. Wally said the mayor right now said he's causing disturbance in the meeting. while he is out here uh trying to film disturbance with the crowd and I'm I'm allowed to be right here filming. Why don't we go talk outside? So, uh let gentlemen, okay. Instead of on a second floor, this is the one thing. Wally never asked me to leave. He said there's a police officer coming to escort you out. He never said leave. What What do you think that means? I mean, if he says somebody's coming to escort you out, well, I'm I'm I'm obliging. I'm obliging, but this this isn't You can't You don't have to make an appointment. You can't go in there. Quietly. I'm not in there. I'm not going in there. Okay. Well, stand here, man. Just stand right there. Okay. Please stay right there. Well, you can't go to the meeting. I'm not going to the meeting. Just don't disturb the meeting. You can't film the meeting. You have to ask for private permission. You know that that's doesn't that's not the law. The law is actually public meetings. I got to ask for private permission before. So, you can't film. All right. Why don't you get your stuff? You have your stuff. The encounter ended with Chris Angelo being escorted out of the building by the police. Despite his assertion that he was within his rights to record and had not caused any disturbance, the officers, led by Sergeant Justin Lamb, insisted that he had disrupted the meeting and needed to leave. The officers faced public outcry and resistance from this unlawful interaction just because of abiding with the mayor's unlawfully wishful commands. If you believe this is the worst embarrassment cops can face from higher authority, then you likely haven't heard about the next case. Do you take any kind of medication or something? No. Your pupils are very very very tiny. Pinpointed. Can you look up in the air for me? Yeah. I don't I don't I don't drink. I don't turn around. Put your hands behind your back for me. You got cocaine in your nose. That's a lie. Turn around. That's a lie. This is officer Jacob Pritchette from the Guthrie Police Department. On December 7th, 2024, responded to a disturbance at the gas station. For context, a disabled veteran named George Henderson suffering from traumatic brain injury, PTSD, and advanced Alzheimer's disease went missing in Clarksville, Tennessee. A silver alert was issued and later, Mr. Henderson was involved in that disturbance at the gas station in Guthrie, Kentucky. Watch the confrontation unfold when Officer Pritchette approaches him. How's it going, brother? How you doing? Good. Got a call about you assaulting somebody. What happened with that? I work with these guys. Yeah. Did you Was it him you pushed? Huh? Who did you push? Who I push? I pushed the the back. You pushed what? I don't know what you looking for from me, but what I do is I go out there and tell tell them mailer bills bills and all that. Now, you want to you want to want to want to believe something about me, you can call some people. I ain't doing nothing. I ain't trying to steal nothing. Okay, you good.

Yeah, walk up here to this counter with me. Lean up on that counter up here for me. Okay. We're going to figure out what's going on. Let me talk to this other guy. live move in this area. I got you. Have a go over and sit up next to that counter. I'm going to talk to him real quick. What's going on? Getting in my car. He's getting in your car. What? What did he say? Where did he get from? He was attempting to take your vehicle. Okay. Hey, so why were you inside his car? I wasn't inside. You weren't inside his car? No, I Well, yes, I was. You were inside of his car. He uh gave me a climber. Uhhuh. I ain't trying to do anything. I understand. No, you can. Do you take Do you take any kind of medication or something? No. Your pupils are very, very, very tiny. Pinpointed. Can you look up in the air for me? Yeah. I don't I don't I don't drink. I don't I don't turn around. Put your hands behind your back for me. You got cocaine in your nose, man.

Be advised. Security. Call. They have a button going off at the high right now. Cross your leg, please. Hey, I got to get you up, brother. Okay. You in cuffs? Just relax. Come on. You can't lay here in handcuffs, brother. You all right? Yeah. He bit the out of me. Officer Pritchette allegedly responded to Mr. Henderson biting his arm by using excessive force, punching him in the head, and rendering him unconscious for about 30 seconds. Despite later suggestions that Mr. Henderson's actions were due to dementia rather than drug use. Officer Pritchette filed multiple charges against him, including attempted theft, resisting arrest, and assault on an officer. The punch to Mr. Henderson's head was deemed unnecessary and excessive, especially given his apparent cognitive impairments and lack of significant threat. This raised concerns about the reckless use of force and the legality of the charges filed against Mr. Henderson in his impaired state. Officer Pritchette's actions, especially his use of excessive force against Mr. Henderson, an elderly and mentally impaired veteran, could have led to embarrassment or disciplinary measures from higher authorities. However, it remains unclear whether any such actions were taken against Officer Pritchette. If you think this was the maximum cops can get embarrassed by higher authority, then you probably haven't heard of this next case. I don't whatever. I don't care who who does it. I don't I mean you can try and figure out how to cheat it but I don't that that says test and that means it's ready to go. So he's going to blow it and then it has to have two asterks that come up. The first one just shows that there's air going through. The second one will show that there was an adequate sample. Okay. This is officer Benning from the Inenver Heights Police Department. In June 2020, a YouTuber and a First Amendment auditor were auditing the Inenverve Heights Police Department. While in its parking lot, he observed Officer Benning's vehicle containing a beer cap and a cooler inside. The auditor questions the officer, suspecting he might have been drinking, and requests a field sobriety test, which the officer refuses. The auditor then requests his sergeant, Officer Adams, to conduct a sobriety test on him. Watch how it goes. Hello. Hey, hold on one second. Hold on. Do you need something? Yeah. So, okay. Hold on. Let me get rid of Sure. So, I have a couple of questions for you. I believe I believe that to be your vehicle right there. The silver one. The silver one. Yeah. Yep. Yeah. I see the the Parker in the back that had your name and stuff on it. I also see a cooler in the front seat and then a beer cap that's on the in the center console. Okay. So, just curious. I mean, do you have an open container in the vehicle or Did you see an open container? Well, I saw a cap and a cooler, which would lead me to believe that there's probably some alcohol in that vehicle. There are no open containers in the car. Okay. Have you been drinking today at all, sir? No, I haven't. You promise? Promise. Okay. Can we do a quick field sobriety test on you? No, we can't do that. Okay. And why is that? Cuz I've been trying to get my report done so I can get out of here. Well, I understand that. But what I'm what I'm saying just from the public's viewpoint, right? If you want to call my supervisor and have him give me a PBT, I don't I'm fine with that. But I'm not going to do You just won't follow the finger real quick and that's it. Operation safety issue. Okay. And CO I don't want to get that close. That's fair. Okay. Yeah. Do you mind if I look in your vehicle real quick? Just at the front seat there like you were doing? No, but I mean open the car door and look into that cooler and see if there's any open containers. No. Okay. And why is that? Just out of curios. And like I said, I'm trying to get out of here and find I get that. But if if there's nothing to hide, then I I'm not going to let you look in my vehicle. But thank you, though. Okay. Well, can I speak with your supervisor then, sir? Sure. if he can watch you so I can show you what I'm talking about. I'll go to the opposite side of the vehicle so you can look in without, you know, me being behind you. But I just want to show you something in his vehicle right here. So, I'm going to go on this side so that way you can go to the other side. And I have no weapons on me or anything like that. I'll I'll show you right now just so you can see it. Okay. I just want to let you know in in this vehicle. Yes, in this vehicle. So, this is uh Officer uh Bettings. And if you look right here towards me uh in that little pen compartment, you'll see a bottle cap. that's open from a beer, a corona, and then a cooler there. And so my concern is is that obviously that would lead me to believe there's maybe an open container in the vehicle or something like that. Um and also would give me some concern that maybe Officer Benning had been drinking today or something like that. Okay. Um he won't let me look in the vehicle, which is fine, but I think he's obviously been driving here and he's about to get in his personal vehicle and and go home. So I asked him if I could give him a field sobriety test and he said no. Um, would you mind taking care of that then? I'll address it with him. Yes. Okay. The officers agreed to proceed with a breathalyzer test following the claims made by the auditor. Officer Bennings, despite his reluctance, was prepared to take the test. Cuz he's been very kind. He's been very nice and professional. What years were you at Bennings? Uh, well, I'm not going to say right now. Oh, after I take it to him. Yeah, maybe. Yeah, maybe I'll do that. I'll do that. In fact, you know how these work? Uh, a little bit. Yeah. So, right now it's just giving us a temperature. Okay. Doing an air blank. So, it's sampling the air we're breathing right now. That means there's nothing in that sample of air. You I don't whatever. I don't care who who does it. I don't I mean, you can try and figure out how to cheat it, but I don't. That that says test and that means it's ready to go. So, he's going to blow it. And then it has to have two asterisks that come up. The first one just shows that there's air going through. The second one will show that there was an adequate sample. Okay. And that click means it was an adequate sample. And then it thinks and it calibrates and you can see it says 00. Officer Bennings undergoes the test which reveals no presence of alcohol. The auditor eventually left the scene after confirming Officer Bennings wasn't intoxicated. If you think this was the worst cops can be embarrassed by higher authority, then you probably haven't watched this next case. These are officers from the Mesa Police Department. On May 23rd, 2018, officers responded to a domestic violence call and encountered two men leaving the scene, including 20-year-old Eric Reyes, who followed the officer's instructions. However, when officers asked 33-year-old Robert Johnson to sit down, he refused and resisted as they approached him. Watch how this encounter quickly escalates into a brutal and ego-driven situation. Officers used force to subdue Mr. Johnson with three of them physically striking him. Mesa Police Chief Rammon Batista learned of the incident a week later after a community member reported it, leading to an investigation. Mr. Johnson was charged with disorderly conduct and hindering while Mr. Reyes faced disorderly conduct and paraphernalia charges. The officers involved faced criticism from pastors and attorneys who called for their retraining due to their handling of the situation. It's shocking to see corrupt cops getting embarrassed by authorities above them. If you enjoyed this video, make sure to drop a like and subscribe for more. Goodbye.
