So now you're in the public roadway, you need to leave the road. Get out >> Just a camera, but enough to expose the abuse of power and [music] once the truth goes public, legal consequences are inevitable. >> Can't have you standing on the side of the road. >> Sir, what law is this? I'm on state property which is publicly accessible. >> I'll let you finish. >> Publicly accessible, right? >> It says it's pointless. >> How would I get in if I was walking in? >> When police cross the line, the cost isn't just their reputation, it's the law. A man simply [music] stood there filming, but within minutes multiple officers showed up and everything quickly turned tense in a way no one expected. >> Ask them what type of limited public access we have here. Um authorized staff only. So yeah, I can't go by the gate here, but I can definitely take some some pictures. I'll I'll head back to the gate there in a minute. I'll just ask the uh guard here what they have as far as limited public access. So I can head over here. How's it going? Hey, I noticed on the sign it says uh limited public access. What's that access for for the public? >> I don't know. Just a security guard. >> Okay. Um so there's Is there a public office over here that I can go to or All right. So I'm curious I'm lost, man. There's no public office. Um So yeah, I'm inside their gates right now. Um and I think they for the most part understand that there is really nothing they do. We've had a couple actual officers pass by me and uh you know, they just kind of looked at me, didn't say much else, so >> At this point, everything still seemed fairly calm, but a slight shift in approach instantly changed the atmosphere. The distance closed, voices grew sharper, and what began as a normal conversation quickly turned into a confrontation. >> Let's see. CHP see. I'm good. How about you? >> Good. Can I talk to you real quick? >> Uh you can speak. I'm not particularly in the mood to to speak back, but >> Okay. Well, we're just wondering why you're out here filming cars coming in and out. >> I'm uh wondering why you're so close to me there. You can talk to me from a distance, right? >> Yeah, but why would I want to talk to you from a distance when I want to just have a conversation with you? >> Well, cuz you're like maybe 2 ft from me. >> Okay. >> That's a little close, right? I can talk to you >> for you, sir, just step back. >> Or I can get closer. >> That's fine with me. I'm not I'm not worried about it. Good. I was just wondering what you're doing out here. >> Uh again, you can talk, but I'm not going to have a conversation. >> Okay. So, do you know that Do you know where you're at? Are you on state property right now? Are you on academy grounds? Is it Is it a Is it an Is it an off-the-wall question to ask you why you're out here filming people? >> Uh I thought I was pretty clear, like I'm not going to speak with you. >> That's fine. That's your right to not speak, but >> Right. >> one would think, why would someone be out here filming people coming in and out of the academy? That's all I'm asking. >> I get and you you heard I'm not going to speak, right? >> Okay. >> Okay. >> So, so if you're on if you're on academy grounds and you're not here for business, I'm going to have to ask you to leave. Do you Do you hear that even though you're not going to speak? You You hear me saying that, right? >> I'm conducting my business, actually, as I was saying. >> what business are you conducting on state property? >> Uh again, it's not your business. >> no. If you're going to conduct business on state property, then we need to know why you're here. We just don't let people come onto state property. >> Is it not obvious why I'm here? >> No, it's not because you're not speaking to me. So, if you're not here for for lawful business, then I'm going to have to ask you to leave. >> Uh I told you I'm conducting my business. What was your name again? >> It's right there. Dan Locatelli. 16399. >> All right. And what's your name and badge number? >> Officer Tiffany Hall. >> So, so you're okay asking >> I'm trying to hear her badge number. >> Right, right, right. It's right there on her chest. But you're okay asking us a bunch of questions. >> What's the deal? Why you here? >> Uh what's your badge number? >> It's right here. 20381. >> There you go. 20381. >> we're not afraid we're not afraid we're not afraid to to give you the information. You're the one that's somewhat suspicious out here. We don't normally get this, ever. So, do you understand what I'm talking about? You see how this is this is odd, right? >> This is different than our normal day-to-day business out here. >> What exactly are you What business are you conducting >> As both sides began arguing about laws and authority, things only became more chaotic, neither side willing to back down. And it was at this moment that the next move by police pushed the situation to an entirely different level, setting off a chain of tension you're about to see next. >> street. We can't have you out here. It's dangerous for you. We have vehicle traffic out here. So, I'm going to have to ask you if you want to film, you're more than welcome to go stand out on the city street. >> I'll I'll take care I'll take care of my >> No, no, no. See, that's my job is to make sure that it's secure. No, no, no, it is. Trust me, it is. >> Your job My safety is not your job. It's pretty clear to me. >> Yeah, no, no, you're on state property. So, your security is my >> funded by who? >> I'm not sure. That's not my job. But my job is to tell you you can't stand >> You don't know what state property is? >> I do, and I understand that you're standing on it, and I can't have you here. I need you off of this piece of property to go >> It's public, okay? >> No, the state property starts at the on the back. >> your I'm not past your your gates and this is public access. >> right here. >> Just like your sign. So, who am I talking to here? You or her or >> I'm glad we're talking. >> going to talk to one person. >> I'm glad we're talking. >> So, one of you guys speak. I I can't listen to both of you. I can't listen to both of you. >> So, so if >> You're hearing me but I can't listen to both of you guys. >> So, if you have access to the freeway So, if you have access to the freeway, is it okay to go stand up on the freeway? >> That's not an actual an actual law, sir. Right? >> Okay. >> And is a freeway an actual law? >> I can't have you standing here. >> What law would this be? >> You're on state property. You're in a blind curve. >> What law would this be? >> So, if you have children, would you like me to allow your children to go go play on the side of the road? >> allow or disallow me to do anything, okay? You don't have any authority unless I'm committing a crime. >> You're on state property. You're on state property without lawful business. >> What law This is lawful business. >> No, okay, well, what is it then? >> It doesn't matter. It's a >> No, it does matter. So, you can't say, "Oh, it's not a lawful business." >> say that to you. I have lawful business. >> Okay, hang tight. >> Unless you can prove that I don't, then >> So, the lawful business is to just stand on state property and to film and not explain why. That totally makes sense. That's what I'm saying. >> open conversation. >> Oh, I've I've told you several times I'm not going to speak with you, so >> that a mature thing to do? >> I don't need to speak with you. >> But is it a mature thing to do? >> Opinions are I don't care I could care less about your opinions or your >> It's not my opinion. >> Yes, it is. Your opinion is that I'm not being mature, right? That's an opinion. That's not a fact. I just don't feel like speaking to you. >> to ask you some And if you give me answers >> you this. Is it a mature thing to do to come across somebody who's just standing well outside of your fence, filming >> Our fence is over here. This is the property. This is This is the State Academy property. >> The back and forth spiraled out of control with both sides convinced they were right, but the more they argued, the more things stalled with no clear answers in sight. And after what felt like an endless standoff, an unexpected turning point emerged, shifting the entire situation in a way no one saw coming. >> Good job. And I can't have you standing on the side of the road. >> Sir, what law is this? That's what I'm asking. Oh, what's your name and badge number, sir? Badge number? >> Sergeant Murphy, 13855. I'm on state property, which is publicly accessible. >> Publicly accessible, right? So, that takes care of that. It's not private property. >> It doesn't make it so. >> I know. I I'm not the authority on this, ma'am. I'm not the authority on this. The Supreme Court is. And they've ruled what publicly accessible property is. So. He said nobody's ever done this. So, what are you here for? Has any Let me ask you a question. Has anybody who's ever stood here and filmed attacked an officer or done anything out of the ordinary? Well, you say you're protecting the people here. How are you protecting them from a camera? Your Your job's not to protect me, remember? The Supreme Court ruled on this. The Supreme Court ruled that my safety is not your concern. Look it up, sir. Look it up. I can guarantee you I'm right. Google it. I don't have to. I'm not here to educate you. I'm just I'm speaking with you even though I don't have to. I can. I only do this for a living and know most of these laws like the back of my hand. And I am. Doesn't mean I need to split the case law. I'm not on the road. I'm I'm off to the side of the road. Where am I in the road? Where am I in the road? Let's Let's get this on camera here. Here's the road. Here's the Here's the bicycle lane. Let me Let me ask you something. Is this a Can somebody ride a bicycle in here? No Nobody can ride a bicycle in here? Somebody riding a bicycle coming in here or walking in here, how did they get in? How did they get in? How did they get in? Somebody walking in? Well, I don't I don't typically listen to ignorance. It's It's pointless. How would I get in if I was walking in? >> Just when it seemed like things were calming down, the situation took an unpredictable turn. The arrival of a new figure noticeably shifted the atmosphere, but the tension didn't disappear. If anything, what followed raised even more questions about everything that had just happened. >> Lieutenant, badge number? Thank you. Appreciate it. You should educate your your your your peons here cuz they don't know nothing. Nothing. I'm not going to talk about it anymore. We're good. I just for documentation, I just wanted your name so I can if I need to call witness or anything like that, I can. So. Cool. All right. See you guys later. I already know. I I've been arguing for 20 minutes. Let me see. 33 minutes with your staff here about whether I could film here or not. Apparently, I know and and they do not. Please Exactly. Please educate, especially her, because that You had your other officer. Now that I have a lieutenant that's being cordial, I can do the same. You had this other officer who's getting within 2 and I won't do it to you, but getting within 2 ft from me, they're yelling, they're interrupting, giving me directives that you guys don't have authority to give me. So, I understand very well that I can be here, okay? I'm a journalist. This is what I do for a living. And That's right, baby. See? I'm I'm I'm well known. >> [laughter] >> So, educate them, okay? Cuz they don't know this. And And when you see the video, you'll understand why I'm saying that. The way they acted was not professional. It was disrespectful, yelling, giving orders. Yes. Oh, it'll be there unedited. There'll be boring parts with no talking edited. Other than that, it won't be edited. So. I'm You guys will see it. Trust me. You have a card? I'll email it to you. >> I actually don't have a card. I have I'm >> Tell me your Tell me your email and I'll email it to you. >> Uh s pacheco chp. >> .ca.gov. We'll send it to you. I promise you you'll see it. It It's ridiculous. And I'll file complaints on them for sure because it was ridiculous. There's no reason an officer needs to try to intimidate. So, there's something in California called the Tom Bane Act. I don't know if you're familiar with it. Are you? Okay. If you're trying to intimidate me out of exercising my rights, that's a Tom Bane Act violation, right? So, when I have an officer standing close to me, yelling in my face, >> [music] >> not letting me talk, telling me I have to leave, "You got to go. You got to get out of here." so on and so forth, that's a Bane Act violation. Clear and uncut Bane Act violation. It's pretty simple. So, please educate these people cuz I'd much rather highlight um how could I say I don't want to say good officers cuz that's a little bit um vague, right? Officers who are doing their job, holding themselves to the level of professionalism that you guys have in your mission statement. >> After all the prolonged arguments and tension, things gradually came to a close, but not in the way many expected. There was no forceful action, no clear conclusion at the scene, only lingering questions about how it was handled, about authority, and about what truly happened behind this confrontation. Up next, a situation that seemed harmless just a few people filming on the street, but the intense reactions from those around quickly pushed everything out of control. >> Everything was still limited to complaints and suspicion from bystanders, but once police stepped in, the situation began shifting in an unpredictable direction. What seemed like reasonable requests at first quickly changed in tone within minutes. >> Are you filming me, bro? >> What am I going to do with them? >> These two guys are taking pictures of people. >> They're taking pictures of my license plate, VIN numbers of the tow truck. Everybody's getting upset at them. >> These guys won't talk. They speak Arabic. I don't know what's going on with these guys, either. I don't know what's going on with these guys, either. They're just taking pictures of VIN numbers and license plates and all >> They don't speak no English. >> Well, at least that's correct. You guys can do whatever you want. >> And 55502 over. 858-717-1262 Yeah, that's >> I don't know what these two guys are doing in my business. They're taking pictures of my license plate. They take pictures of me. They don't answer any questions. >> [snorts] >> I know what they look like, but I can't tell them. They're all uh They're walking. Here's my They're taking pictures of my license plate. >> The initial reminders gradually turned into tension. Voices shifted and the atmosphere grew heavier. But what truly pushed things out of control was an unexpected action that followed, triggering a chain of intense events. >> Hey, get away from my car. >> Rakata. >> Get away from my car. >> Rakata. >> Get away from my car. >> Rakata. >> Get away from my car. >> Rakata. >> Get away from my car. Get away from my police car. >> Rakata. >> Get away from my police car. >> Rakata. >> He just doesn't want you to walk in the door. >> Rakata. >> That's not my police car. >> Raka. >> Get away from my police car. >> Rakata. >> You guys are really just can't block the driveway, okay? Get away from my police car. >> Rakata. [ __ ] you, [ __ ] Puta de tu madre, [ __ ] >> Don't touch my police car. >> Rakata. >> You guys are allowed to film, but you just [ __ ] doesn't know the law.

Voices grew harsher and the line between control and chaos became increasingly blurred. But notably, instead of cooling down as many expected, the situation was pushed to an even higher level. >> Now you're blocking street. >> [ __ ] at the car [ __ ] at the car. You're already blocking street [ __ ] Piece of [ __ ] there. You're already blocking street. You are standing in the street you piece of [ __ ] there. We need to get this idiot to retire already.

Citizens may file a lawsuit against police under section 1983 if their rights are violated. Officers who violate those rights could face financial liability and may also be subject to discipline or termination. A healthy society cannot be built on laws alone. It also requires understanding, restraint, [music] and mutual respect from both sides. Hey everyone, what do you think about the situation?
