Sergeant, stop pushing me. I'm trying to get in. I'm trying to get in the building. So, do you have anything else to ask me? >> Yeah, I am asking you to leave. >> Got you. Well, this is a controlled area even if it's not secured. >> invited in. If it is written, I'll honor that and leave right away. >> The echoes of arguments filled the air. A hand reached out and then suddenly silence engulfed the entire hallway of the headquarters. >> I said no. You know, I >> stay here. >> I know. I can. I know that. >> I tried to tell you that, Trooper. But you you didn't want to listen. >> Under the gaze of dozens of officers, once again the line between law and abuse of power was torn apart. Right at the Connecticut Police Headquarters, the fiery confrontation suddenly erupted. Who was truly overstepping their authority? >> I'm trying to get in the building. >> You have no business here. >> I do have business here. Stop acting like a like a like a savage. What are you doing? >> Accusations of suspicious filming shook the entire area, but was it truly a crime or just an excuse for a heavier hand? >> Yeah, what do you need? 854? >> No, I don't need any help with anything, Trooper. >> What are you out here doing? >> Oh, I'm just taking a walk around. That's all. >> And why are you recording? >> Aren't you recording? >> Yeah, but I have to. >> I choose to. >> I'm interacting with the public, so I have to be recording. >> And I choose to because I'm interacting with a law enforcement officer. >> But you've been recording that we've been having reports of you out here for a while been recording. >> Reports of reports of someone recording? >> just walking around because this is a a building with important people and things in here. >> So, are you important because you have a uniform on? >> not me. >> Well, who's important that's inside of this building? >> crowd of people in there. >> Yeah, who's important? >> Civilians. >> Oh, it wouldn't it wouldn't be the it wouldn't be the >> They are coming here asking why you're >> the Connecticut State This is the Connecticut State Police Headquarters, correct? >> And they're asking why you're recording. We have civilians coming up to me asking why a man is recording. They feel uncomfortable. >> Civilians are coming up to you asking why >> Yes. >> I'm recording because it's suspicious. >> Yes. >> How is it suspicious? >> Because you're recording in a parking lot. Do you live here? Are you here for a reason? >> live in the parking lot, no. >> Are you here for a reason? >> I am here for a reason. >> What's the reason? >> I don't know if I want to disclose that to you at this point just because it might compromise what I'm working on here, but what's so suspicious about a man recording? >> You're in a an area that's public, which you you are free to be, but you're recording and making it look suspicious. So, you're you're being a threat to the civilians that are coming up to me and complaining about you. >> A fateful moment. The officer who once caused a stir suddenly appeared, and then everything spiraled out of control. >> Not ask me to leave a public place. >> I could. You said I could ask you. >> No, you can you can ask. >> you go. >> Okay, you can ask. Okay. >> make sure you know what you're saying first. >> Okay, you can ask. So, do you have anything else to ask me? >> Yeah, I am asking you to leave. >> Anything else? No. Anything else? >> I'm asking you to leave. >> I said no. Anything else? >> Why? What are you have business being here? >> is no other there is no other explanation but besides the word no, ma'am. >> What is your business being here? >> Ma'am, no. >> What is your business being here? >> Not answering any questions that I don't want to answer. >> needs to be a reason for you to be in this parking lot. >> True. Again, you're you're incorrect. >> and you're making people feel uncomfortable. >> ma'am. >> I'm No, I'm not cuz I've had many civilians come up to me and complain about you. >> You're incorrect. >> No, I'm not. >> I'm not saying that people haven't complained. >> Exactly. So, how am I incorrect? >> Well, I'll take your body camera see who complained to you, but listen. Again, you can ask me to leave. I said no. I don't know what else we need to be discussing at this point. I said no. You know, I >> stay here. >> I know. I can. I know that. I tried to tell you that, Trooper, but you you didn't want to listen. She wanted to try and exert her authority. She didn't want to listen. I know I can be in a public parking lot of the Connecticut State Police Headquarters here. I know that already. All right, guys. So, we're going to go around to the front of the facility here. Look, everyone. It's Sergeant Brian Fahey in the flesh. There he is. Look at him. In the flesh. He's here. >> The camera was suddenly shut off. A hand had just reached out and wide the entire police team stand by without intervening. >> Come on in. >> Oh, you're the sergeant of pistol pistol permits, aren't you? >> Come on in. >> All right, come on in. >> Excuse me, sir. You have to get out of the way. >> Sir, I know I know your inclination is wanting to assault me, sergeant. Stop pushing me. I'm trying to get in. I'm trying to get in the building. >> You have no business here. >> I do have business here. Stop acting like a like a like a savage. What are you doing? Sergeant Brian Fahey just took my camera yet again. The coward that he is. He just took my camera yet again and and stopped it from recording. But, the officer that talked to us in the parking lot, her body camera was recording. We're going to make another internal affairs complaint on him. This is incredible. Right exactly. It happened right over here, ladies and gentlemen. Right over here. Right here. Right where we're standing. Look at him. You can't control yourself. You're an animal. You're an animal who can't control yourself. You're a disgrace to that badge. >> You just witnessed somebody get assaulted and their property taken from them and not do anything about it, trooper. Is that standard operating procedure? Cuz there's the criminal right there in front of you. If you'd like to place him under arrest, trooper. He just assaulted me and took my property. He violated my first amendment right. But, no. These troopers aren't going to do anything about that, right? >> All right, sir. You can come on in. >> Thank you. >> Anything in your pocket go ahead and take out. So keys, wallet put right over here. >> From the police headquarters to the federal court, this case opens the door to expose the power and the silence behind the badge. Front in in broad daylight for the second time. This is This is the same individual who assaulted me the first time and broke my my camera the first time. I came here for records and I was just assaulted again. How is this How is this lawful or How is this a good look for anyone here? This shouldn't happen. This This is unacceptable. I didn't do anything. I want to speak to him. Yes. I would like to speak to him. Sure. >> So, the gentleman that was coming down to talk to you, he's being held up upstairs and these gentlemen need this area empty because they're going to start I don't know what construction project they're doing, but they're going to start a project. Um so, I suggest that you just submit your complaint via via email uh and just get out. >> Who was supposed to come down? >> Lieutenant Colonel Davidson. >> Davidson? >> Davidson, yes. >> Davidson. Okay. All right. So, no problem. I can't force anyone to meet with me if they don't want to. >> Thank you. >> Yeah. Yeah. You can write the time Trooper next to Benjamin Franklin. You can just write whatever time it is, okay? Right next to Benjamin Franklin. Thank you. All right, guys. So, we're just getting out of the Connecticut State Police Headquarters here in Middletown, Corrupticut. Wow. When I came here, my intention was to submit a FOIA request for Sergeant Fahey's disciplinary record to see how many times he's been disciplined in the past and if he was ever disciplined for assaulting me right here in front of this facility. Pushed me all the way back, threw my phone onto the sidewalk, pushed me all the way back to about here, the light post. Horrible. Horrible. In the state of Florida, corrupt or abusive police officers can face criminal prosecution for misconduct, lose their certification, face internal discipline, and be sued under 42 UCSS 1983 for damages caused by violating constitutional rights. The auditor declared he would add this incident to the federal civil rights lawsuit against Sergeant Fahey and continue pursuing criminal complaints. Up next, right in front of the camera, tension suddenly erupted as a command of authority was unleashed. >> What are you working on something? >> Uh, you can call it that. Why, what's up? >> Uh, just wondering this is a secure part of the parking lot for authorized vehicles. >> is that secure? There's a fence there. >> Yeah, yeah. No, I get it cuz I was just looking there. There's no restricted even restricted signs out here at all. What's your name and your badge number, sir? >> I'm uh Deputy Commander Waltmire. >> Waltmire? 69. Okay. Yeah, like I was saying there's no like uh restricted signs or anything even not even just a gate. It's not even a sign out. >> Got you. So, what you What are you working on there? >> I'm just documenting today uh creating uh basically gathering content for a story. I went over to the coroner's office over there. I seen them. So, you know, I'm just >> a particular publication or >> Uh, I really don't want to give out any information like that uh Sheriff. You know, respectfully, I'm just like I said, just want to be able to do exactly what I'm doing unmolested and we'll be good to go. >> Okay. Uh, what's your name? >> I don't want to give that at this time. >> Okay. I mean, I gave my name. I know you don't have to. >> Well, it's right there. There you go. So, I'm just exercising rights today. So, >> Got you. Uh, well, this is a controlled area even if it's not secured. >> Controlled, what you mean? >> It's controlled as in the Sheriff's Office controls who goes in and out of this area. >> Okay. >> So, um if you wanted to go over to like the public side, the public parking lot, >> Yeah, actually I'm I'm going to get all of it. Right now, I'm just documenting the vehicles, you know, the um these taxpayer public vehicles, obviously. And uh >> Sure. Sure. >> Just want to be able to do that, you know, because like I said, there's no restricted sign You guys definitely if you want to keep people out, you guys should put up a fence, man. It's wide open right now. So, >> I know. There's costs associated with that, obviously, and you have to get it through the county board and all of that. >> Oh, y'all definitely got the money, though. I mean, if you if you bring up costs, so you know. >> Okay, got you. Uh, would I be able to get you to head over to the lobby area or the front area of the board, the publicly accessible area? >> definitely. I mean, just after I get these my shots, I definitely head head over there. I'm not done documenting and gathering my content. >> A warning without any posted signs thickens the air. Can mere words really be enough to stop the right to film in public? >> Okay, at this point, sir, I'm going to demand your uh identity just because now now it would be considered a trespass. >> Well, I'm not I'm Yeah, I just don't >> to give you ample opportunity to not ID yourself. All you had to do was comply with my request to leave the area. >> Yeah, I know, but you're you're asking. You're It's not So, and let me let me just get this correct. You're You're asking for my demand You're demanding my ID. >> How How about this? I'll give you one final like opportunity. If you depart the area to the public area now, we can call it square. I won't demand your ID. We'll consider it that you didn't understand what was going on. I provided you with the context. >> Well, I got it. I I definitely think you should get I think you should I I definitely think you should >> You should contact someone of a higher authority before you step into some mess. I'm going to be honest with you because it's going to come down on you personally. >> What >> I'm I'm being perfectly honest with you. When you're in the When you're in front of the judge and your lawyer goes to file for qualified immunity, you're going to lose, sir. You're going to lose your qualified immunity and and you're going to lose and you're going to lose the lawsuit in its entirety because I'm telling you well-established laws, well-established rights. So, you you you won't be able to qualified immunity won't be an argument for you. >> If this were a public area, I would totally agree. >> It is. And it's going to be considered that in a in a court of law because you know what the If you even look at a case law, ACLU versus Alvarez in the in the state of Illinois, we have a right to film public officials in the course of their duties. You're in the course of your duties. I'm here doing that. >> And I allowed that the entire time. >> But if you're going to you're telling me to leave somewhere where I won't be able to do that. That's prior restraint, sir. That's against the law. And I don't understand because you guys are law enforcement, you think you know, oh, nothing's going to happen to me, but I don't want you to feel that way because that's cockiness and that's going to get you in trouble. >> think I've been cocky during >> No, I'm saying that I'm saying that mental. The mental, if you thought that, it would be cocky. I'm just being perfectly honest with you. Like I said, I'll be here for a few more minutes and I'm going to jot on out. >> The ultimate pressure, demands for ID, threats of handcuffs and fingerprinting in jail, all just for filming public vehicles? Where is the limit of power when the camera is still rolling? >> What am I assuming? >> The assumption number one is that because there is no signs you can go wherever you want to. All right? >> It on public property, though. >> And what we've done is we've we've dispelled that assumption because at this point I provided you with information contrary to what your initial belief was. >> So, okay, so let me ask you this. Is it Put it like this. And we And this And this will say it all for for both of us. When you By you saying you've provided me, right? Let's Let's Let's go there first. Let's start with that. Is there any Is it documented? Is there any written rules stating that this is controlled and that the public can't be here if you're not invited in? And if it is written, I'll honor that and leave right away. Definitely will. No problem. Is it written down anywhere? What I'm sorry. Like basically is it documented exactly what you're saying? You say you provided me with the information. You verbally did, but is there anything documented saying precisely what you're saying? And if it is, I'll honor it right now and walk right off. No, I wouldn't No, I wouldn't want you to do that because then that means you're going and creating now. So, I'm just saying has it been documented? Like is it Is it uh written, you know? Is it in stone? There is ample case law, as you mentioned before, that an entity that controls a property has the ability to restrict who comes onto that property. That is very well-established case law. So, I would I would point you to basically any of the case law that handles trespass, who can be provided access, and That's correct. And I actually gave you a Illinois compiled statute. I L S 725-21-3 that definitely allows me to be here. And ACLU versus Alvarez, which is a >> After moments of tension on the verge of erupting, the atmosphere suddenly calmed. A quick compromise was offered. Was it truly a concession? >> Can you stop videoing me? Cuz I have a right to not be videoed if I don't want to be videoed. >> Um absolutely not. What's your name? Is it Sheila? Yeah. >> I think that's how I'll give you a video form or a video or a FOIA request. >> Yeah. >> Please, cuz he's yelling at me and stuff. And if you have them ring >> Yeah, so. Okay. >> There you go. >> Mhm. So. She is listening for some address that she has a right not to be filmed. And she asked this young lady to call Marino. Maybe that's some type of a officer or sheriff or something. I don't know. We'll see though. You guys stay tuned. We're going to fill this out while we wait. Yes, actually young lady is in a I needed a FOIA request form. They was able to get me that, so yeah. Basically, yeah. >> Just wanted to make sure. >> What's your name, ma'am? >> Michelle Brox. >> Michelle, thanks a lot, Michelle. >> Can I help you? >> Um >> I have to tell you that you don't have the right to not give me permission to >> I don't really need permission, ma'am. Uh what's your name? >> D. >> D, yeah, yeah. I don't need any permission to film you guys. Another young lady said the same thing over there about permission. Yeah, I'm not really sure. Just document. >> Put a sign up anywhere. Tell them there that I'm not giving you permission to >> I I understand what you're saying, but I don't need it. Cuz you're in public. You see that camera above you? I'm because I'm documenting today you know the city of Yorkville. So I want to be able to do that exactly what I'm doing without being Okay, but you see that video right there right above you. That doesn't make sense. It just doesn't make sense. So but that's okay. What department is this actually? >> Human civil process. >> Civil process. Oh, okay. Warrants. Civil process and >> Inside the lobby tension erupted between privacy rights and the right to public access. The legal battle was only beginning. The incident could force the police department to update its procedures posting clear signs and training on the right to film in public. Up next. When individual rights are violated the police overstep their bounds. What happens next? >> Get down. >> I'm going to call >> Move it. Stop. Put your hands behind YOUR BACK. NOW. TURN. HANDS BEHIND YOUR BACK. >> BEAT THE WHITE OUT OF THIS [ __ ] BRO, beat this [ __ ] now. >> You're going to chill out. All right. >> Stop talking to me. Beat the cop. Beat the Beat the [ __ ] out of the wig off of your kids. Stop. >> Hey. Stop the car. Stop. You stay here? What are you doing here? Turn the car off. Turn the car off now. Turn the car off now. Turn the car off. Turn the car off now. Turn the Hey. Let me explain to you what we're No, let me explain to you WHAT WE'RE DOING. I UNDERSTAND >> I don't give a >> I'm responding to you. >> Put your >> Wow. >> It all began when a woman sitting in her car was suddenly approached by police in order to shut off the engine with no reason given. The first sign of an overreach of authority. >> What the >> Nobody's on your phone. >> Stop. >> Turn Turn around. Ma'am, turn around. >> Stop. >> You're not under You're not under arrest. >> I don't care. >> Turn around. >> Stop. >> You're not under arrest. Stop. >> You're holding my hand. >> Get down.

Put your other hand behind your back. Then roll the car over. Try to quickly move it. If you DON'T STOP MOVING I'M TRYING NOT I'M TRYING NOT TO kill you. I'm trying not TO HURT YOU. I AM TRYING NOT TO HURT YOU. TURN AROUND. SIT DOWN. >> They're only hurting me. >> Sit down. I said sit down. >> What started as an unreasonable demand quickly spiraled out of control. Police escalated to brute force, ignoring the victim's pleas and lack of resistance as she begged for relief from the painful handcuffs. >> Stop. >> Stop touching me. Stop touching me before I bite you. >> What the [ __ ] SIT THE [ __ ] DOWN. >> HEY, I SAID STOP TOUCHING ME. >> ALL RIGHT, ASSISTANT. DO YOU KNOW WHAT'S COMING? >> HE HAS my arm twisted in it. Hey, cuff. And I swear to god, if I get out of these I was I was I swear to god. I'll beat the white out of these on my mama. Bro, fix this [ __ ] now. >> You're going to chill out?

Come on. >> In pain, the victim pleaded for humane treatment but was met with profanity and blatant abuse of power by the police. >> I'm okay. Don't touch. Oh my god. >> In Florida, police officers who abuse their power may face administrative discipline, criminal charges, or civil lawsuits. But in reality, accountability is rare and justice is often elusive. This case is a stark reminder of the dangers of law enforcement overreach, especially toward women, people of color, and those without social power. When power goes unchecked, anyone can suffer, even the innocent. Incidents like peaceful protesters or innocent women harmed are not isolated, but reminders that freedom and justice must be defended daily by both law and society's conscience. They kept ordering leave immediately, but when asked about the legal basis, everyone suddenly fell silent. What is being hidden behind the courthouse gates? >> You can't be back here. It's a secure area. >> What What about it is a secure? Can I get your names and badge numbers, please? >> This is for staff only. That's private. >> Yeah. Can I get your names and badge numbers, please? >> No, it's not actually. >> Your badge number, why? >> I'm not giving you any information. You can talk to my boss. >> Francisco. And your name, sir?

There's no need to be hostile in any way. You're serving You're embarrassing Yes, you are, sir. You're embarrassing the the You're embarrassing the Marshall Service by not identifying. What's the problem with identifying to a member of the public? Just cordial and polite as a public servant to say, "Hi, my name is Francisco." >> I got you. >> Nice to meet you, sir. How are you today? >> I'm good. How are you? >> Doing great. >> That's good. >> Beautiful day. >> It is It's nice and warm out here. >> Yeah, a beautiful day. >> It was like yesterday. >> Okay.

The question arises, who truly holds authority here and who is crossing the limits of the law? >> You're being informed right now that this is an employee lot to be made an error and didn't know that that's fine. You're welcome to go up the public area and film all you want. You cannot film the employee area. >> But what about >> This area is restricted. >> I know, I'm this is an employee lot. >> But I'm not parking, sir. >> you right now. You can't be in the employee lot. >> But there's no signs. You're restricting it just cuz of me. Yeah, but you're tailoring a policy just to violate my rights as me specifically. You know who I am. You said Mr. Reyes, right? >> Okay, so you're you're making this policy just specifically because I am here. >> Anyone that comes in our lot is >> Yes, it is specifically tailored to me because you're you're specifically telling me that I can't use a public sidewalk. >> to go up there. >> That I can't use a public sidewalk? >> Yeah, that's how I got here. >> Yes, so go up to the >> But there's no signs that say do warning, do not enter into any restricted areas or anything.

You are welcome to go 30 ft up there, but you cannot form film any employee lot. >> But there's no restricted areas. >> It's restricted. It's restricted restricted to employees only. >> But where what authority do you have? >> you, are you refusing to go up there? Are you are you refusing to leave the employee lot? >> But I don't know if you have the authority to trespass me from public. >> you very clearly. >> you're saying you have the authority. >> I'm I'm informing you. >> Are you a law enforcement officer? >> Sir. I need you to go film >> Question, are you a law enforcement officer? >> Talk to me up here. We'll go >> take a walk. We'll take a We'll take a walk. Are you a law >> You will be arrested immediately. The warning rang out like a suspended sentence, setting the stage for an intense legal showdown about to erupt. >> If I go onto this parking lot, are you going to arrest me? >> I'll ask you again one more time, and if you >> Am I I need to know No, no, no, please, please, just tell me. >> I don't want to go into semantics here. >> If I go on the parking lot, are you going to arrest me? >> clear right now of the rules that I'm asking you, right? You are you are very clear You are very clear >> What's the >> clear of what is being asked of you >> Uh-huh, I understand, sir. >> clear. >> Yeah.

Okay, are you going to arrest I'll I'll beat it just like I beat everything else, so just I I I know my rights. >> From a seemingly harmless act of filming, everything erupted into a fierce legal battle, dragging the entire power system into a whirlwind of criticism. >> told you that. Regardless of whether you have a >> think you're wrong. >> Regardless of whether you have a camera, I I said you were welcome to film here. I told you I'd give you an explanation here. >> Yeah, but I think you're wrong though. I think I think you're wrong because I have a constitutional rights. I'm not bothering anybody. There's no security threat here. You know who I am. >> Again, Mr. Reyes, in the public area you are more than welcome to record outside the building. >> publicly accessible area. And and your marshals, let me talk to you about them, too. This lieutenant and this marshal over here completely completely unacceptable behavior. >> here. >> They're judging my intentions. They're trying They're They're being very rude and condescending towards me from the get-go. >> Cuz I know how I do it. >> And you'll see it. And you will see it and you know you will. You'll see it. You guys know who I am. You guys know I don't I I I'm not breaking the law. The same corrupt judge is a special prosecutor who's the president of the the Connecticut State uh Prosecutions Union. I'll do it again. The problem with the problem with you telling me this is a restricted area is that where does it start? You don't have any type of Do you have no guidance on where these things start? >> Please. Thank you. What you're looking for is the distinction I gave you. >> Who gave you this authority?

Shawn announced he would take the case to court claiming the marshals abused their power and violated the First Amendment rights to free speech and recording. Up next, the public door swung open, a confirmation was heard, and right after that, the story took an unexpected turn. >> You just violated my rights. And you touched me. I didn't touch you. Because well, here. There you go. Well, hold on. Let me Let me let my wrist go and get it off my wrist. >> I'm not going to do nothing to you, dog. >> Now Now I'm being detained right now. >> From internal procedure, it turned into an order to leave with trespass accusations dropped like a hammer, sending tensions soaring. >> Well, I mean, he was He was arguing whether I could be here, but I was just asking questions. I just requested public records, and they're just ignoring me to do my public records request, which I have a right to do under the penal code. >> So, you're aren't supposed to be here. If you are supposed to be here, >> I was on camera them buzzing me in. I didn't even open the door. They buzzed me in, so I'm allowed to be here. I pushed the button on camera, and they buzzed me in. Locked or not, they allowed me in the building. >> Okay, you also need to have an appointment. >> That's not true. >> Okay, you need to sign in. >> That's not true, either. I suggest you look up 602 OML and I because it says clearly in there and I'm just going to help you out real quick. You can't violate my rights, my constitutional rights, for trespass.

I just said I'll leave, but let's get your sergeant. >> Okay, we can go outside. >> Handcuffed for officer safety without any crime stated. The camera seized. Citizens' rights pushed to the breaking point. >> So, first off, look at 602. 602 clearly says you can't use penal code 602 to violate somebody's constitutional rights. It's written into 602. And it's written into the only subsection that would apply right here. They allowed me in, and I have every right to request public records like I have. So, you, sir, are a and you need to learn how to do your job cuz you're an idiot. You just violated my rights. And you touched me. Did I touch you? Did I touch I just told you.

For Well, hold on. Let me Let me let my wrist go and get it off my wrist. What do you think I'm going to hurt you? I'm not Now, uh now I'm being detained right now even though there's no crime. This guy doesn't understand how RAS works. You can't detain somebody for just for your safety, just cuz you're talking to him. You have to have a reasonable suspicion of a crime. And even if I stayed in there, and I could have easily let this young officer arrest me and then sue him later, but I choose not to do that. >> A sergeant appeared scrutinizing every detail, the buzz in the public access area, the rules, the balance of power suddenly shifted. >> I'll go right back in there. As as long as this As long as this Oh, so now they locked the door. It was not locked because after they I didn't try the handle. What you should have asked him is, do any members of the public come in here at any time? Right? Because then if Well, then it's open to the public, right? And he said this is a public area and that office that people come and have meetings in is a public area as well. But there's a office where people do But that is a open public office. I also asked for public records. I can be there to ask for public records. Appointment, non-appointment, it doesn't matter. I can go I don't need an appointment to go ask for public records. Well, they have to take my public records request. So, I'm going to go back in there and make them take my public records request. But now now essentially they locked the door. >> It is locked right >> Right? >> I tried to open it. >> And it's not a locked office. Want to know how >> There's no point in us having you here and taking you to the MDF or what? >> I wish you would have. Uh cuz it's a fat lawsuit. What he didn't tell you is when he came out and said they want you trespassing, you got to leave and you got to He thinks that I have to sign in to be in there. Next thing he said he said, "Well, you they you're trespassing in here and they want you to leave." And I tried to tell him, "Hey, this is open. They buzzed me." I said, "Well, if you're going to arrest me, I'll leave. But I want your sergeant." And he said, "Okay, then get step out." And I'm like, "Get your sergeant." I told him, "What crime?" Well, uh officer safety. This guy is a idiot. He doesn't need that badge and gun. He's a disgrace to it. That's my opinion. >> "No, go away." In response to a CPRA records request, a brief remark that sparked a wave of backlash and legal consequences. Police and government employees could face administrative complaints and civil lawsuits for violating recording rights, public records access rights, and unlawful detention. >> Did you just say "No, go away"? I can't hear you. I can hear inside saying, "Yes, I did." That's not the way this works. You guys have to file public records. This It's this idiot lady. It's this idiot lady again. Uh "No, go away" is what she tells me. So, they they clearly didn't learn from yesterday. Clearly did not learn from yesterday. And her response is "No, go away." What they don't understand is it's a law and I have a right to file public records. I'm not asking for a favor and I'm not asking their opinion. I need to file public records. So, I mean these are public servants. This is the way they talk to us. No, go away. Excuse me. I need records.

It's people that's guilty that did something. >> Good job. That's what I'm talking about. >> I'm going to steal right here. >> Was it you that I heard about? Was it you? >> I was on the phone. I'm talking >> I'm going to be on the window. >> Y'all do your job. Take your time. >> The camera captured it all. A child's cries, a family's panic, and the cold, emotionless silence from the badge bearers. >> James, what's going on today, sir? >> Please, sir. >> James, can you talk to me, sir, what's going on today? >> What's going on? >> Not sure? >> Yeah, he said he got heart problems. He has a bunch of medicines. >> What kind of heart heart problems do you have, man? >> This medicine is it's supposed to be in the drawer. >> All right. >> How do you know that? >> Okay, I'll get the corner. >> What he take or whatever, but >> Here, sit up for me here, man.

Give me a call. >> The search warrant was not explained in detail, and no clear evidence was presented during the arrest. The man died after being restrained, presumably due to lack of timely medical care. The incident led to serious consequences, raising questions about human rights violations and law enforcement failures. Just seconds after the camera turned toward the Ceres Police Headquarters, the entire power system was set into furious motion. >> It's people versus Garcia. You can't just grab people and pat me down. They make you feel powerless, like you have absolutely no power. Ripped my phone out of my hand. And uh the police have no right to see if you have weapons, to pat you down anymore. >> You're taking pictures of government property. This sudden accusation ignited a firestorm of controversy, setting the stage for dramatic display of power in broad daylight. >> What's your picture of our vehicles? >> What do you mean? >> Where's your ID? >> What? >> Where's your ID? >> Why? >> Because I said so. >> Because you said so? >> Yeah, because I said so. You're taking pictures. Where's your ID? >> Where's your ID? >> Where is your ID? >> Where's your ID? >> And then you want me to be uncooperative. >> You're funny. >> I don't think it's funny. >> Okay. Well, I think you're funny. >> idea? >> Where's your idea? >> My idea. >> Where's your idea? >> Do you see it? >> I see a name tag. I don't see an ID. I want to see your address and everything. >> Why? That's Is that where you're getting our information for? You're taking pictures of personal vehicles. >> know that I was trying to do that. >> You can't do that. How's that Well, you're doing it right here and then you're going on Second Street and taking pictures of vehicles that are leaving this area. We're going to pat you down for weapons. Give me your ID. >> No, you're not. You can't touch me. You can't I'm recording this. >> too. >> Nope. You can't touch me. Nope. Nope. I'm not putting my phone down. I'm allowed to record you. >> I'm going to grab your phone and break >> I don't care if you're recording, dude. >> You just grabbed me and patted me down. What's your name? Name and You You don't get to pat me down. What is the This is public property. That's public property. What's your name? >> property. Is there >> That's public property. It doesn't matter. Learn the law. It's people versus Garcia. You can't just grab people and pat me down. What's your name and badge number? Hey, what's your name and badge number? I need it for documentation. You have to give it to me. Name and badge number. Name and badge number. You guys can't just grab people and pat them down, you idiot. What's wrong with you? That This is the Series PD just rolling up on people. >> No explanation, no lawful order. And in an instant, the hands of justice turned cold and heavy upon the shoulders of an innocent citizen. >> So, this is Series PD in Series, California. They do not know the laws. I need your name and badge number, too, for documentation. Series PD, it was that fast. Right up on you. What's your name? Boom. They don't want to give it to you. We're going to pat you down for weapons. You can't pat people down unless you have reasonable suspicion they have a weapon, you idiot. Learn That's crazy. See, that's the reason why we do this, Bayfam. That's the exact reason why I come out and do this. Because that's what they do. They make you feel powerless, like you have absolutely no power, and they're just allowed to grab you and do whatever they want with you. That's the worst feeling in the world to feel powerless and you're not committing a crime. There's nothing you're doing wrong besides taking pictures, right? They're going to grab me, pat me down, and then just drive off. That's a gang assault. Twisting on my shoulders hella hard. Rip my phone out of my hand. There's a case called People vs. Garcia. They have to have reasonable suspicion that you have a weapon before they can pat you down. And they didn't. They had no reasonable suspicion they had a weapon. That she clearly said, "You're taking pictures." So, now we're posting everything I possibly can. Every single thing I can possibly get. >> They claimed it was just a safety procedure, but a landmark court ruling says otherwise. Has the law been left behind in this tense confrontation? >> You know People vs. Garcia? People vs. Garcia. You understand I'm going to sue you idiots, right? You just used force and intimidation to stop me from taking pictures. You guys are What a piece of trash cop, man. That's why I do this. That's why I do this cuz pieces of trash like him and that stupid chick who thought she had everything in the world to prove. Crazy like she had all kinds of [ __ ] to prove. She had to be tough. "Give me your ID." [ __ ] I don't have to give you my ID. And because she knew I didn't have to give my ID, then they're going to use threat and intimidation to pat me down. I'm not going to lie, babe. My shoulder freaking hurts because they're twisting on you. All that stuff. I mean, it's it's not okay for them to do that. They clearly knew I was taking pictures. They said I took pictures of somebody who was leaving earlier, right? You know that we're allowed to take pictures. That doesn't give you the right to just jam me up and pat me down like that. Now, I'm going to be here for a long time. I'm not going to lie, Bay Fam. I am pissed off about this one. They didn't even try to talk to me. They didn't even try to understand whether or not we're allowed to do this. And I wasn't trying to tell them either. Cuz sometimes you see it with the true cop the way the cop really acts. >> Whatever. I don't know what to tell you. Where's your ID? >> You don't have to speak to them. That's the whole point. You can be what they call uncooperative. That's not uncooperative. Being uncooperative is running away. >> Just when everything seemed to calm down, a fierce declaration rang out, promising complaints, lawsuits, and an unprecedented wave of outrage. >> That's how they do it. They snatched me up right away. My wrists are all messed up. My shoulder's messed up. And they just snatched me up right away. We're ripping on me, pulling on me, grabbing on me. What's your reasonable suspicion that I have a weapon? And sometimes there's nothing you can do cuz they're just going to do it. And if you sit there and uh rip away from them, they're going to try to charge you with resisting, right? That's their little tactic. So, People versus Garcia says that police officers back in the day, before People versus Garcia, they used to be able to pat you down if they encountered you to make sure you didn't have a weapon for their safety. Where is your reasonable suspicion? You clearly got a call that I was out here videotaping. You got a call that I was out here taking pictures. You pulled up and said I was out here taking pictures. And yet you still assaulted me, searched me, and then left like a bunch of piece of [ __ ] gang members like they are. Excuse my language. So, that was not okay. I was trying to open up a dialogue for them and let them know, "Hey, what's your reasonable suspicion?" They were going to do what they were going to do, and then they left. That's it. That's how they get down here. That is [ __ ] Sierra PD is garbage. >> Why are you recording our cars? You can't record government property. And I played dumb, of course. >> Well, I didn't know I can't do that. >> No, I can. And I know more about it than you think. Wait till this video goes up and you guys start sending emails and complaints and calling the mayor and all kind of [ __ ] >> It's a pretty nice car right there. >> Citizens may sue public officials for violating their constitutional rights pursuant to 42 US Code SS 1983.

Up next, the camera appeared and a public official suddenly hurled an insult in the middle of working hours. >> You weren't even at >> I'm harassing my staff. My staff is crying right now. >> I mean, you wouldn't do that out here if you didn't hurry up and have your phone to call the cops of public. Sir, is this owned by the public? And what's your name, Bezner? >> An emergency call, accusations of harassment, police summoned, but the truth behind it all left everyone stunned. >> So, um >> Okay, can you please not direct your camera this way? I'm asking you. >> you guys want to listen to my head of office >> thought you said you weren't going to take pictures of us in the area. >> I'm taking a deposition on him, but you weren't even at actually in the staff >> My staff is crying right now. >> I'm harassing I'm How am I harassing anybody?

Next, a man is stopped by police in the middle of a parking lot. When his identity is revealed, the entire patrol is stunned. Was this a misunderstanding or a deliberate act by an unexpected person? >> All right, and that's what we're investigating right now. >> Okay. >> And seeing, you know, he's pretty much heard it. >> He said he was just going to Starbucks to relax.
