Oh my god. All right, everybody. Welcome back. We got another video for you. This one comes from Midwest Safety and it is woman flees after cop changes her tire. I haven't seen it. Let's go. Okay, so like I used to pull over and change tires all the time, help out. Not really for guys. If you're a guy, you should be able to change your tire. So, I didn't pull over and help some guy. I mean, I'd pull over and make sure they were safe, not in traffic. But, um I I have I'm married. I have a daughter. I'm not going to sit and stand there and let some lady change her tire. Call it what you want. I'm still uh chivalry is not dead in our home. >> You need some help? Yep. I have a impact wrench. I'll do you one better. Give me 1 second. I'll come help you. >> I'm 5,376. >> They're focusing in a little bit, huh? She's got to get her smoke, a puppy. Uh this is already >> She's been here for a couple days, huh? >> yeah. >> Just blew a tire. It's not broken down or anything? >> Just a tire. >> Let me grab this for you. >> Thank you so much. >> State trooper, good man. >> Sort of, yeah. >> Sort of. It's a heavy one. You should grab this. >> She wanted to see a police officer in the back. >> Ah, like changing tires sucks, but uh I remember the first night we did we used to be on Live PD. The very first time Live PD rode with me, we had a quad that had wrecked in the desert. So, I'm going off-road, get to it, check it, get back in my car, tire's flat. Had to change a tire on Live PD. It was hot summer day in Arizona. Yeah, this looks like a little bit nicer day. >> Hey, good boy. >> How old is that thing? >> Uh he's a miniature dachshund. He won't get much bigger. >> He's a little hamster. >> Thank you so much. >> Yep. Damn. >> You got your little wrench? I don't think I have the right size for this. Yeah, I don't know what size of weird lug nuts you got, but I do not have the correct size for this. You can try your four-way. >> 7/16, go ahead. >> Violation of probation, misdemeanor theft. >> Oh boy, this is where you So, you run the plate because you're you're going to tell dispatch So, you're probably saying, "Why is he running her?" What happens is is you run the plate saying, "Hey, I'm out with this vehicle. Here's the plate, blah blah blah." And then they come back and say, "Hey, the the female that's attached to that vehicle is showing probation violations, warrants, all that stuff, felony theft." Um I don't think anybody's surprised, but still. >> Felony theft. I'm trying to confirm it now. >> I'll tell you what she didn't steal is somebody's pants, that's for sure. >> Camera on there? >> Uh yeah. >> One at a time. I think this is Trooper >> Thank you so much. >> Unfortunately, don't thank me yet. What's your birthday? >> Uh >> What's your birthday? What are the last four of your social? >> Oh boy. >> What's your name? >> Ashley. >> What's your name? >> Ashley Hunt. >> You have your ID on you? >> Uh I don't think I have it on me really. >> That What? >> This car >> That's not a real name. Shh, no. Lying? >> [snorts] >> Can't be. >> This? >> Uh this is my guy's license. >> Can you start on that in the backseat? >> Okay. >> Put him in the back. >> So, did this dude pull over to help, too, or what's his deal? >> How are you? >> Good, how are you? >> Good. Main reason I stopped is I saw that billboard and then I pulled up here and it says 4 Road. I'm like Wish I would have known that before I got off the highway, but you're all done. >> I'm good. I appreciate you. >> All right, buddy. Thanks. >> All right. Just come to this passenger side window real quick if you would. Give me some info. Is she now going to come? Oh, yes, she is. She did. Okay. >> I'm not running. I don't have anywhere to go. >> Okay, one second. What's What's your social? >> Huh? >> Your social. >> Hey, husband. Sparky, I need a ladder. >> Okay, dog's going to go back in the car. Come back here. >> Okay. >> Looks like Is this Tennessee? >> One more chance. Plus, I have a warrant. >> I know you have a warrant. >> Okay, please don't take me to jail. >> You're going to jail. AND DON'T EVEN RUN. OH, HE BROKE THE HANDLE OFF. HOW MANY TIMES HAVE WE SEEN THAT? We saw a video about a few weeks ago where he broke the handle off. He just legit broke the handle off the car. I mean, I'm assuming the car the It was probably compromised already looking at this car. Is Jack still there? Stop. Stop. If you You want another charge? Get back here. Now. >> Please, don't take me to jail. >> GET BACK HERE NOW. IT'S A FELONY CHARGE. GET OUT. >> Broke the handle. >> FELONY CHARGE. GET OUT. RUNNING, I'm going to chase you. Felony charge. Don't do it. >> Is this front-wheel drive? She better hope it's front-wheel wheel Yeah, there she goes. Right over his jack. No good deed goes unpunished. Daughter is moving this car. Oh, boy. >> [music] >> She lost control. Oh, yeah. That spare is ain't going to have any part of this. So, in order to not go to jail, she wants to catch a felony charge, damage the car probably to a a great extent. She can't even control it. No good deed goes unpunished. Hope he goes back and gets his jack. >> 483 Got on 40 Eastbound 362. Tire is blown. He's on metal. Light traffic, clear roads. >> She's going to crash. >> 75 >> Oh, pieces coming out everywhere. >> 380 direct >> What is she doing? >> 480 >> Got a tail light out, too, folks. Broken tail light. >> Speed is 47. Going on the shoulder, come back on the lane three. >> She's trying to figure out what to do here. >> Still metal dashboard. Additional charges, criminal impersonation. 364 East >> criminal impersonation >> I forgot to get off here. She's already spun out a couple times before she got on this uh interstate here. She's pulling off the shoulder. Speed is 42. >> And I think we're on the shoulder. >> I'm guessing she's going to take off again. Tennessee There she goes again. >> Getting off the exit. >> Watch out, truck. We called these res rockets. With Malibu's and Impala's and stuff. We or a Chevy um Yeah, Malibu's. They would uh we'd get them running from us all the time, man. You be surprised how hard they can push these cars. She's going to lose control. There's no way she makes this turn. No way. Oh! She uh oh! >> Truck's out. No, making a U-turn. Probably not getting a U-turn. >> She is struggling to control this vehicle on that metal. Look at this chick doing some driving. >> [snorts] >> Back on 40. Going straight out. Going straight out. Going east. Speed 60. Light traffic is what I can see. Going east. Speed 60.

He's screwed. >> Lane one, 96 miles an hour, light traffic. >> 96 on three wheels. >> 96 miles an hour. 92 >> She going to crash into somebody. >> Coming up on traffic. >> Oh, and now that's Oh. Oh. >> Vehicle is 45 into the median. >> Dang. Wow. >> GET OUT OF THE CAR. >> KNOCKED OFF THE BODY CAM. GOT HIS LITTLE hole punch or his little uh window punch. Good work by this trooper. >> Get out of the car. What are you doing? >> Kudos to him because a lot of guys would have got out gun drawn and all that. Um and not to say that that would be the wrong approach. It would absolutely be okay. But he understands the situation. He knows she's just running because she doesn't want to go to jail. Um doesn't mean that she doesn't have a gun, but he he's got a good feel for the situation. So anybody that might be critiquing, this guy understands. He When you're in the moment, you're the one that understands what you're going through. And he's I think he's doing a great job. Jumped on the car, get it. >> car, now. Last chance before you get another one. Come on. GET OUT. >> DON'T TAZE ME, BRO. >> THAT'S HIS BODY CAMERA. Threw it up on the car. >> Or I'm going to drag you out.

STOP. >> OH. >> HE'S GOT YOUR DOG. >> He's my baby. >> Well, you ain't going to see your baby for a while. You caused two vehicles to One of those cars almost flipped over. Uh hopefully nobody's hurt on that other accident. She's over here without a care in the world for anybody but herself and her dog. Um at least she cared for the dog enough. She's probably holding the dog the whole time she was driving like a maniac. There's the body cam. Little cloudy day. >> I appreciate you. >> Are you okay? >> I'm good. There's just a lot. >> Officer's hands bleeding from the glass, so >> Take a deep breath. >> [laughter] >> Her leg looks like it's bleeding from probably the glass in the car. So now he's got to go over and check to make sure these folks are okay. >> Okay. I'm okay. >> You're okay? >> Yeah. >> Still good? You all right? No problem. >> This isn't their fault by any stretch of the imagination. Um I will say when you are driving, this is why it's important to constantly be checking your mirrors, to to not have your radio too loud so that you can hear any sirens coming or any of that because if they would have been looking in their rearview mirror, you would see there was a a pursuit, you know, a emergency vehicle coming. Like I said, this isn't their fault, but you pull off to the side, pop potentially avoid this. She came right up on them and this may not have been avoidable in any way, but this is an an example of why you always want to make sure you're keeping an eye on your mirrors. This car almost flipped over. >> Take a deep breath for me. Everybody's all right. Very easy. Yeah, everything's all right. >> You good, love? >> I'm good. >> Okay. Do you prefer a wrecker out of this area or you from here? >> I'm from Charleston. >> Charleston? Do you want me to call a wrecker for you? Get you pulled out of here. I got you. I got you. We'll get that handled. >> Do you want a place to stay? Do you want to go to your mom's house? >> Okay. >> Look at that. Southern hospitality is right. I was just going to say the same thing and they were they read my mind. Southern hospitality that these folks pulled over, I just don't think you're going to get a lot of this on the West Coast. These folks all pulled over to make sure they were okay, and then you have a lady saying, "You need a place to stay?" Wanting offering for them to come eat probably I think she truly means come stay at her house. >> Do you have a a preference on a wrecker you want me to call a record for you from here? >> I don't know. I'm from North Carolina. >> Okay. >> I just picked up my Stetson and now we're headed home. >> I'm not even going to tell you how stupid that was. You just stacked on like five more felony charges. It's the dumbest thing you could have done. >> Is that the only reason you helped me? >> I'm done talking to you. >> She says that's the only reason you helped me. No, he helped you for a good reason and then >> Are you okay? >> I'm good, thank you. Your insurance is on here, you're good. >> Yes. >> He's going to get blood all over her paperwork. >> You're not sounding happy about that. >> No, not at all, do you? Cuz she >> According to court records, this suspect, Brandy, was charged with criminal impersonation for giving a false name, felony evading, resisting a stop, arrest, or search, driving with a suspended license, driving without a license, driving with [music] no seat belt, not exercising due care while driving, operating a vehicle with tinted windows, failure to maintain lane, improper driving on the right shoulder, not obeying police officers, reckless driving, speeding, following too closely, and financial responsibility for not having insurance. She took a plea deal, pleading >> Okay, so I had one time took a plea deal. I'm going to we're going to find out what the plea was. Hopefully it was something. Um where we we had a car that kind of did something like this and I think we gave them So on a ticket you I think you can put five charges. We gave her a 20 pack. Four citations with 20 different charges. This is 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15. It's a triple pack. >> Guilty to criminal impersonation and felony evading while all other charges were dismissed. She was ordered to pay $1,293.26 >> A thousand $1,200 $1,300 in fines. Come on. >> cents and a judge released her back into the public before this video ever saw the light of day. >> Oh, what is going on, folks? What are we doing? What are we doing, judges and attorneys? First of all, they dropped all the other charges. She pleads guilty to two of those charges of all the other stuff. And then you wonder why we continue to have a problem with Brandys the the Brandys of the world. 12, 1300 dollars after she caused an accident after putting other people at risk. Her cop's hand got cut up. Got a judge released her back into the public before this video ever even made it out. >> ever saw the light of day. She told the officer, "I need a lighter." and started walking back towards her car. Most people probably wouldn't think twice about it. But I remember my FTO telling me when I was a rookie, "Don't ever let someone go back >> Officer John is exactly right. I never let and how many times have you guys heard me say it? Don't let people go back into their car after the outside of the car. I never let them go back into the car. Um It just even if I had to go find something, I just didn't let them go back into the car. >> unless they absolutely have to. And the officer recognized that immediately. He called her back and stayed one step ahead. That's experience. Then I started thinking about something else. Pretty much every owner's manual tells you not to drive much over 50 miles per hour on a spare tire. And there's a reason for that. So imagine doing 96 miles per hour after the spare tire is already gone and the car is riding on the wheel itself. At that point, you're throwing sparks, damaging the vehicle, and giving up a lot of control. That's exactly what happened here. And when you zoom out, it all started because she decided to give a false name. Instead of facing the situation she was already in. And I'll tell you something from experience. Calls like this can wear on an officer over time. Now this guy stopped because somebody needed help. She took advantage >> So now you think, "Why would I even help anybody?" This is what happens is he's right. This wears on cops. So then you wonder why cops get jaded and or we just don't tolerate any BS is because of things like this where you stop to help somebody and then they end up doing what she did. >> into that. Because most cops start this job wanting to help people. But you have enough encounters like this, and that trust you started your career with gets a little harder to hold on to. >> Yeah, he's uh exactly right. I want to do something new though. I'm going to start reading some of these comments cuz then I always I don't watch the videos. I watch them with you. And then later on I go back and read the comments and um they're funny. Let's see. That's my baby leaves the actual child behind. Uh yeah, right. He left his daughter back. She left her daughter back in the car. You can fix a tire, you can't fix stupid. Correct. Pure luck that no one died. Yeah, it is luck that nobody died and they dropped 90% of the charges. It's insane. And not only did they drop the charges, they didn't even I don't even think she got any time for it. Uh how the hell does a thousand dollar make up for five plus felony charges and destroying two cars? The court system's insane. You're exactly right, Odin. T H The last thing that woman needs is a freaking puppy. She's not wrong. It's so frustrating that that these people are basically just given milk and cookies and right back to the crap again. It's insufferable. She's insufferable. Risking all those lives and charged $1,300. 12,000 bucks here, but it was 13. What's wrong with the judicial system? A lot. The judges are a joke. WTF, right? Um his radio traffic. This is a good comment. His radio traffic is very disappointing, Dad. That's so true. No consequences. Our injustice system is a complete joke. That seems to be the common thread. We see it over and over again. Unfortunately, our justice system in many ways has become a joke. It's not that the system's a joke. The system is actually designed to work. Attorneys and judges have become the joke. They have injected their personal feelings and beliefs or activism into the decisions they make and instead of holding people accountable for society's benefit, they actually are releasing these people back into society for us to deal with them again. Not just police, citizens. We have to deal with them again and again because the judges who sit on these benches who never really feel the consequences of their poor decisions or lack thereof are never actually held accountable. I would love to see judges and attorneys remove any qualified immunity they have where they are civilly liable if they release somebody or failed to hold somebody accountable that goes then goes back out and reoffends or revictimizes somebody else. They should be held civilly and potentially criminally liable. You will absolutely fix this situation. So, thank you Midwest Safety for a great video. John, officer John, thank you for great insight. He's spot-on and all of you who comment, make sure you comment, like, and subscribe on this video. I'd love to know what you think about it and how you would have handled this and uh whether you could be as patient and as calm as this trooper was in this situation. So, let me know what you think and well, as always, thanks for joining us. Comment, like, subscribe and I'll catch you on the next video.
