the cooperation. >> Well, no. So, there's only one way this gets handled. Decide out here if the complaint's viable to get filled in or not. I get to turn it in and then the review process goes through the complaint and then they decide if it's viable. >> Is he going to take more pictures or is he going to >> Do you need to stop taking pictures? I'm sorry. Because we're going to have to call the police. >> An ordinary man. A car parked on the side of the road and suddenly the whole border guard team rushed over. >> You have been told three times not the building. If you don't leave the building, you're going to get arrested again. >> Please, I need these stamped copied and returned to me. I need a date stamp, my keys, my cell phone, my wallet. >> I don't understand why I'm being arrested. I literally Okay, >> but what makes gun toing officers tremble when questioned by the people >> is not allowed to turn in my complaint now. >> It's not that you're not allowed to turn in your >> sir. There's a legal way of doing this. >> Can you show me what you're talking about? >> Yeah, it's a complaint right here. From the very first second a citizen walks into a police building just to file a complaint. But what he gets is the threat of arrest. What makes officers afraid of a piece of paper? >> If you don't leave the building, you're going to get arrested. >> I'm doing under arrest for trespassing. >> I'm not, sir. I'm doing you've been told to leave. >> I'm waiting for my paperwork so I can leave. >> When the receptionist blatantly lied that there were no officers in the building, a sergeant suddenly appeared just a few minutes later. So, who was pulling the strings in the dark? We are back at Maryland DGS Capital Police Building in Annapolis where I came to turn in another one of the complaints I have for their officers there. Let's watch and see how I was greeted when I get into the building. >> Hi. Can I help you? >> Yep. So, I was here uh a couple weeks ago and I turned this in and it wasn't uh >> Hold on. Hold on. Let me get a police officer for you. Okay. >> Have a seat right there. What's your name? >> I'd rather not give that. >> So, the name is on your rather not give your name for the officer to come out here and address you. >> Absolutely. >> Cool. >> See, I checked there's no sergeant around. >> Okay. So, what's that supposed to mean? I'm not allowed to turn in my complaint now. >> It's not that you're not allowed to turn in your complaint. There's no one to accept it. Well, this is session. Maryland General Assembly is in session right now. Right down the street. >> All the officers are out on patrol. >> Okay. Well, well, we're gonna have to call one over here to do their job, man. Call >> a police officer trying to assist you. >> I'm not talking to you like anything. I'm just saying you're going to have to call a police officer down here. You can't deny me a public services now. >> I'm not denying you anything. >> Well, you're telling me there's no sergeant to come down here and do the job? >> Oh, wait. So, now there is a sergeant here is what you're saying. >> So, what you're saying is there is a sergeant here. >> Oh, yeah. Yeah. Let's explain a big lie before you come out here, cuz you just told me >> the sheriff showed up in person not to handle complaints, but to intimidate people for daring to assert their legal rights. Is this how Maryland protects civil rights? >> Please, I need these stamps. Copy it and return to me. I need a date stamp. You guys have that? >> Where? >> Back in the office. Sir, >> we're the only >> Every police station has that. >> Can I see what you're talking about? >> No, you can cooperate. >> Well, no, sir. There's only one way this is handled. >> You really want to cooperate with me, >> sir? There's a legal way, sir. There's a legal way of doing this. >> Can you show me what you're talking about? >> Yeah, it's a complaint right here. What else do you need to see, sir? >> You don't fill, sir. You don't decide out here if the complaint's viable to get filled in or not. I get to turn it in and then the review process goes through the complaint and then they decide if it's viable and they're going to do something with it, sir. >> After you turn a complaint. >> Okay. So, then why is it that I'm asking them to simply stamp it? Sir, I'm asking them to >> stamp it as received. Finally, an officer acknowledges that there is something known as the receive stamp. >> Yes, that's all I'm asking them. >> That's all I'm asking. Thank you, ma'am. I'm I'm doing legal business. >> Come with me. >> I was told by the commissioner that I could do this. This is legal business. I have legal business. >> No, ma'am. I'm This is legal business. >> I'm going to be here and I'm going to help you outside cuz you're disturbing. >> I'm not disturbing anything. Ma'am, >> you're disturbing, ma'am. I'm asking them to do their job. They're disturbing it by refusing me services, man. I need these date, stamped, receipted, and returned to me. Ma'am, >> I'm not I'm not This >> the second one that you done? >> Yeah, it's the second one. I'm allowed to fill it more than one. No, it's not the same thing. This This one is the same thing because it wasn't stamped and returned to me. I need these done properly. >> I'm not interfering with the flow of business. They're refusing to do it. >> Hey, I want two sergeants here and a lieutenant. That's it. Everyone else can go. >> What's up, Barnes? How you doing, buddy? >> How you doing, man? >> Good, man. How you doing? Good. I'm hanging in there, buddy. Hanging in there. I'm trying to fill out complaints for what happened that day, but they're like they're being ignorant about it. And then they're trying to say that I'm interfering with the flow of business. I came down here, I rang the doorbell, a lady came out, and then she walks in there and goes, "Hey, Sergeant Alexander, what do you mean there's no Sergeant?" >> When people insisted on exercising their constitutional rights, he was handcuffed and dragged away in broad daylight. What was the charge? A request for a stamp of approval. And I'm waiting. Look at me. >> And I've been told by that if I have legal business, I can come in three times not to trespass. I'm doing it will create a problem when you're doing legal business. >> If you don't leave the building, you're going to get arrested. I'm doing legal business, sir. And again, >> I'm doing come back here. >> I'm doing legal business, sir. It is, sir. >> Get out or get locked. I have a right. >> Put it lock him up. >> No, I'm not. >> Rebecca, can you just please give me my paperwork so I can leave? >> It's too late for that, >> sir. Rebecca, what is going on out here? >> You're under arrest for trespassing. I'm not, sir. I'm doing legal business. >> You have been told to leave. >> I'm waiting for my paperwork so I can leave. That's all I waited on. What is the issue here? How am I trespassing? I was told by the commissioner that I was allowed to come here and fill this. I asked this before I asked the commissioner before I came down here. What am I allowed to do? >> Trespass >> for filing a legal complaint. This is a I have a right to file these complaints. Sir, >> I don't understand why I'm being arrested. I literally Okay, >> sir. I was told that if I had legal business Sir, if I was to be here, >> I have a legal right to be here if I'm filing a grievance. Sir, I'm filing a grievance, sir. >> Sir, this this is a violation of 18 code US 242. It's a deprivation of public services. I have a right to file grievances with my government, sir. >> Yes, >> this is ridiculous, man, because you guys couldn't make a copy of a piece of paper. I don't understand how this is not legal business, sir. I'm simply asking for a copy of piece of paper this I need. And they said you are allowed back there if you have legal and lawful business. They told me that filing this complaint is legal and lawful business. So how is it that I'm being trespassed or how is it I'm being arrested for trespassing? This is your guys's complaint form from Maryland Capital Police. So therefore, it's a legal form that I'm filling out. I'm doing legal business. >> For an unstamped application, he was sent straight to prison facing three criminal charges. Behind this incident, there is a system that is more willing to suppress than explain. >> What's the issue here? So, why am I in handcuffs? >> Yeah, you turn that off. >> Did you? >> No, absolutely not. >> Handcuff. >> Yeah. Yeah. Let Let it I said, "Let it roll until you get to the >> I got it." >> I don't understand how I was told by the commissioner this was lawful and legal business, sir. Okay. >> You can't ban someone from doing a constitutionally protected activity. I have a right to file this, sir. >> You're right. I can't come here and just sit down and chill in the office. I can't go in there and do the security card processing center. >> I would rather not speak to you, sir. >> Okay. What else you get here? >> I got to meet you. Okay. >> What's up? >> Seat belt on you. Okay. Hang on. >> Okay. >> I understand what you're talking about. So, we're take care of this process. >> Thank you, sir. >> You got anything on you? It's going to hurt. >> No, sir. >> All right. >> Lieutenant Barnes already checked me, sir. Citizens may sue public officials for violating their constitutional rights pursuant to 42 US Code SS1983. Individuals/organizations are required to pay damages to the injured party. Violating police officers may be disciplined, have their licenses suspended, fired, or expelled depending on the policy of the agency/ police chief. The video raises serious questions about abuse of power, cover-ups, and obstruction of civil rights. Despite the arrests, the residents said they would continue to file complaints, asserting that the actions they were stopped by the police were legal and protected by law. Next, with just a camera and a few steps on the sidewalk, he got the entire bank to call the police. But what really scared them so much? >> Taking pictures and video of the bank. Oh, okay. Doing it for the city or just for >> Definitely. Definitely not for the city. I am a independent journalist. Is he going to take more pictures or is he going to >> You need to stop taking pictures. I'm sorry. We're going to have to call the police. >> Exactly. There's a man outside on the public side. >> Strange guy taking pictures with the front of the bank through the door. >> Is Joe an employee? >> When a man quietly films on the street, one bank invites him in for coffee and another calls him a menace. What's going on in Mary'sville? >> No complaints. >> What's that? I said no complaints. >> Not on a day like today. >> No way a man. It's beautiful. >> Yeah. What brings you out today? >> Just some photography, taking pictures and video of the bank. >> Oh, okay. Doing it for the city or just for >> Definitely. Definitely not for the city. I am a independent journalist and I'm just uh working on a story. >> Okay. Okay. >> I've never seen a combo bank/ coffee shop before. >> Would you like to try a drink on us while you're here? >> Don't tease me. Are you serious? I've never had anybody actually offer me a drink. Are you kidding me? What kind of drinks you talking about? Can I come in? >> Come in. >> Oh man. It's safe to say that tens of thousands of people will likely see the video that I do in Mary'sville. I'm just doing a story on Mary'sville and and the banking institutions in Mary'sville. >> So where does this information >> all over? Well, you know, have you ever heard of like Shuttertock? Are you familiar with Shuttertock? Say if you wanted like a a 10-second video of a line at the DMV, you can go to Shuttertock and you can buy that line at the DMV. Boom. Typically, one can't do it when there's name brands in it. Like Richwood Coffee, I I'd either have to blur that out or not show it whatsoever because, you know, you can't then it's not really shutter stock material. I hate Tik Tok, but uh I've been known to I've seen some of our stuff on Tik Tok before, but uh I think Tik Tok is a disease personally, so I try to avoid that. >> Oh, no. No. >> Better. >> It's all donation based. We don't profit from >> What? Wait. Donation based. So, is this is the money go to charity? >> I support charities. >> Get out of here. What charity? >> All of our six. >> I know you're not allowed to do this. A warning from the bank manager, but is it really a crime or just a lack of understanding of civil rights? No more pictures at the doors. You can take pictures. Not of me either. >> Well, you need to stop taking pictures. >> Is he going to take more pictures or is he going to >> You need to stop taking pictures because we're going to have to call the police. >> And what would you tell the police exactly? Is the man outside on the public? >> Strange guy taking pictures with the front of the bank through the door. >> Is Joe an employee here? A manager? >> Sure. >> Joe is one of the managers. Yes. >> Gotcha. Gotcha. What's up, Joe? >> He's taking pictures through the window. We can't have you doing that, >> but >> it's a security risk. I'm going to ask you to stop. So, >> I'm going to ask you to stop infringing on my right to take pictures in public. >> You're not allowed to take pictures of a financial institution like this. >> Like, by law, you're saying that it's against the law to take photographs at financial >> instit. I really don't want to do that. >> I would love for you to call the police. >> Why are your hi? >> I'm on a public sidewalk. You guys are heckling me. If anything, >> taking a picture of a bank. >> Love that belt buckle. >> Thank you. you you're >> we don't take like we're we have a sign that says you're on camera when you come in the bank. Just please stop taking pictures of the entrance way. >> I I would if you believe that I am committing a crime, I would encourage you to call the police. >> All right. All right. So, we have to loan you another 700 billion in order to uh take pictures of the bank. >> Please just just stop taking pictures. >> I absolutely positively will not >> just ridiculous >> stop taking pictures of this bank. As soon as the police showed up, things could have taken a dangerous turn. But instead of making an arrest, the female officer surprised the audience with something no one expected. >> I like your tattoo. >> Thank you. >> What is that? >> Uh I like Star Wars a lot. So >> nice. So do I. In fact, I often wear a Star Wars shirt and the little the dots in the coloring and stuff. Cool. Far better than my tattoos. Far better than my tattoos. So, was that officer Archer? Was it Was it the bank across the street where the where the guy named Joe actually claimed I was committing a crime by taking photos on the sidewalk? >> Or was it the lunatics right here that seemed that I'm committing a crime and flipping me off by taking pictures of them? Yeah. No, you're right. You didn't flip me off. You did. >> So, then can you just tell me why you're taking photos? >> Sorry. You know, there's a really neat thing. Um, you might want to call the blinds hotline for it, but they call blinds. to shut the blind. Boom. Nobody can see inside. I can indeed. She can tell me why she flipped me off, but that's not going to happen. >> Oh my god. I'm a costy woman. That sounds like a crime. You better call the police. See what I'm dealing with here? >> Yeah. Yeah. There you go. >> Yeah. Am I? >> We don't deal with it. >> Well, I suspect Oh, see. There you go. Just >> for you, buddy. >> You do deal with it cuz you're dealing with it right now. You don't have a choice. >> I know. >> Yeah. Okay. >> You're just an instigator then, right? >> An instigator. Yeah. Just taking photographs. You guys are the ones that came out, flipped me off. I'll stand here and take pictures of you. See, I couldn't really see you through the windows very well with the glare, but you're going to come out here. That'd be great. Pose away. >> Pose away. >> Anyways, so to make a long story short, Officer Archer, you seem like a pleasant woman. Any any any Star Wars fan generally have a general rule of thumb, it's not talked about movies. Um, no offense to you. Uh, I've had far too many cops to try and jam me up because I said the wrong word and all of a sudden they're like, "Oh my god." So, I just don't really talk to police. >> Raised fingers, vulgar language, and a camera that misses no detail. Little do they know that tens of thousands of people are about to witness their every move online. >> For what it's worth, generally the longer people stand outside busting my chops and flipping me off, the longer I stay. So, >> four minutes then. All right. >> All right. I just just giving you a helpful hint for future reference cuz it'll happen again. Somebody will walk by with a camera. >> Well, I've worked here for almost 6 years. This will never happen. >> Well, it'll happen again. I I guarantee you I guarantee you it'll happen again in the near future. When it does, start out with a bottle of water and see how that works for you. >> Yeah. So, so, so people that you flip off but then tell you to [ __ ] off. You won't give them water. >> She flipped me off. No, you'll you'll watch the video, my friend. >> I assure you. >> Oh, you'll find it. Yeah. Let me rephrase. Let me rephrase. It will find you. >> You guys screwed the pooch. It's as simple as that. You screwed the pooch. You know, a man out on the sidewalk taking pictures and you come out here and verbally accost him and flip them off and >> it's just weird. That's all it is. >> It is weird. It is weird. So, you guys generally flip off everybody that is doing something you think is weird. >> Is that how it works? You disagree with public photography, do you? >> Public photography. I'm >> going to step down here. Huh? To be clear, Officer Archer, I'm not being detained, am I? >> Images of employees abusing citizens in public spaces have the potential to cause a backlash and damage the reputation of businesses. At the same time, it contributes to raising public awareness of constitutional rights. >> I didn't commit a crime. I walk down >> just relax it. >> In New York, walking the wrong way can get you handcuffed. But don't think it's that simple. >> Okay, it's in your bra. Okay. So, >> February 27th, 2025, she was just hungry and went to buy a hamburger. She was suddenly stopped. And a few minutes later, everything suddenly got out of control.
