another officer oh yeah get them over here okay if you want to do a recognition evaluation or influence evaluation what's that uh there's an officer who checks your blood pressure does a whole bunch of tests yeah let's do it okay let's do it okay I don't have to um I spoke with the recognition expert and he said that he's willing to do it uh influence evaluation on you um we would have to go up to the PD right now yep I don't want to do that right now you don't want to do it right now why not because you had me on this game we would go to the PD where it's well I'm gonna do that I don't want to do that now I want to go home you wasting my time foreign under the influence of a narcotic the student has been transported to the police station against his will and has undergone a drug evaluation test the arresting officer is in breach of the Fourth Amendment of the U.S Constitution performing unreasonable searches and seizures and arresting him without probable cause stand up first of all have a seat so you don't want to do the recognition evaluation you can do it police officer Nathan Winters is treating galanakis like a criminal even though he is complying with all their instructions officer Drew carries out the drug evaluation test and this confirms that galanakis is clear of any illegal substances we're good good so my name is Drew uh we're here at the police department all right so it sounds like you got traffic stopped yeah um just for my brights and then accuse me of being German and I was like you blow me right now sure um yeah go ahead he said it smells like you smell like alcohol you're wearing some like alcohol I'm like okay let's blown I blow and all of a sudden he's like you smoke after you say that I smell like alcohol so he's really trying to force it he's trying to pour something even though he knows I'm not enough he's a special he's trying to be right even though he's wrong go ahead I'm being completely honest with him yeah like you look at my record nothing's on my regular house I play college football so I don't do drugs sure it has to be wrong before he did this but I said hey I'm good enough okay with me okay okay um so here's where I come in right um I have different certifications and officer winners um I'm called a I have a recognition expert um certification yes sir um so my training um it does involve field sobriety uh so I'm I'm gonna ask you to do some of the stuff you've already done [Applause] all right so big one on this is just don't move don't talk it's gonna it's like a blood pressure cuff at like the doctor's office it'll get a little tight but it shouldn't hurt or nothing bottom line up front uh we're going home tonight okay I don't think you're I have no evidence or no information to suggest that you're on the other phone thank you so is he still here yeah he's around here can't talk to him okay I'll I'll let me get outside I'll see if he's busy um and he can come out and talk we would like to speak with you and Nate okay one-on-one yeah David gallanakis is insisting on an apology from police officer Nathan Winters the police officer apologizes for his mistake in the end but only after he has made multiple excuses for his outrageous behavior hey buddy what's going on so uh I just want to know again how does it feel how does it feel remember I told you when you first pulled me over I had nothing to drink he's gonna look stupid you're like you're impaired you're on drugs you drink alcohol turns out I'm not on any of that okay really dumb decision about you today I'm really disappointed in how you can about your job I finished my decision on your field to write a test was it really fair though it was pouring outside it was terrible cement okay but like I said I'll blow right away I do everything there's also steps that I have to go through did you really thought I was drunk and the way you guys first spoke with you and your movements I believe something was off that's crazy man was this your first false accusation no you said it was have been wrong many times yeah I can tell terrible man sounds terrible I hope you do better than that next time I would recommend asking for clarification if you don't understand something mask but I didn't need to do all this exercise well that's why we offer the test to you is okay you wasted my night three hours was it three or two hours I don't know we can't we can't have this happening I love it okay I want you to do a better job than that okay okay as I'm a citizen here I love doing cops you like you're probably good guy right you probably agree and I'm a good guy I don't have any record and you do that to me like there's other guys probably out in Newland right now breaking the law action breaking the law like not what we're saying there's not and no no but you gotta be likely but yeah possible it was unlikely I was drunk all of your indications from the time of stop I breath isn't like it's not like alcohol there's nothing I got called for sure so I couldn't find any other way to do want to arrest me I offered you when I offered you the recognition influence evaluation you said no so I had to go off of what I had until sobriety okay but we just gotta do better than that is your reporting uh I guess I'm sorry David gallanakis's video has gained over 1.6 million YouTube views
