Okay, go ahead and tilt back, close, and begin. Done. Okay. How much time you got, guys? 30 seconds. We're do the walking one again. was doing in this little hallway right here. I have to do it twice. I know it's redundant, but uh yeah, I have to repeat it unless you want to refuse this part. I don't want to refuse. I don't want I know it's repetitive, but this is it's a separate evaluation. So, I got to recover cuz normally like if another officer would do it, I just have to see it for myself. That's kind of why I have to redo it. But, I got to be universal when I do it so people, you know, so it's not like I pick and choose what tests I do for certain people, you know? It's definitely redundant though. I give you that. All right. So, same thing. Your feet be your left foot will be out. Your right foot will be in front of your left foot. You're going to take nine heel to toe steps on the line. Return and return. Nine heel to toe steps. When you turn, you're going to leave your last foot on the line like so. Two. Three.

You're going to have your hands pointed down, fingers pointed out like so. You're going to tilt your head back and close your eyes. And then from there, I'm going to give you a series of commands. Okay? Okay. So, if I say right, you can bring the tip of your right finger to the tip of your nose. Bring it right back down to your side. So, we have like the pad of our finger here and the very tip. So, make sure you're touching the very tip to the very tip of your nose like this. Yep. And bring it right back down.

Like, it's an infection in my face. Yeah. Then you're not going to give me another jail. So, not you know, uh, we have a nurse on saying like cuz she would have to approve anything they gave you anyway. So, it might be better if she looked at it anyway. [Music] It's under your tongue. Okay. All right. For these ones, I got to look at your pupil reaction to the light. And being I can't close the window while going to the bathroom. So, I need it dark. Oh, never mind. Better's dead. I got to see if I got a spare or not. All right, I got it one. All right. You can kind of lean against there. And for all these, I'll just have you stare at that. That'll go in the dark. So when it is dark, you can just look at that. All right. I got to let your eyes adjust for 90 seconds. So once that time is up, I'm going to use a red light to look at your pupils.

So, that gives us grounds to search the residence for any illegal drugs with him being on probation. So, we know where Kyle's at. Kyle's in custody. Yeah. Is there anybody in the basement? Not that I know of. Is Amanda here? I don't think so. You don't think so? Okay. I just in law enforcement, we don't like any surprises. So, we just if she's here. He's in jail. Yeah, he's in jail.

Because here's So obviously we're not out to get Kyle, but we know Kyle has a drug problem and I know that he has some health issues as well and this is something he's been dealing with for years. One of the good things is with him being in the jail is hopefully it gives him time to get cleaned out. He can see the nurse, jail nurse and stuff. Hopefully get get himself squared away again. So that's what we're working at. Okay. So, with that being said, um, we're just going to search his area of the house. Are you all right with that? I don't know. Have a search warrant or anything? So, he's on probation. He's on probation for for drugs. So, he's on Act 79. So, that allows law enforcement to search an area that is under his or her control if we have reason to believe that they committed about to commit or have committed a crime. Okay. And there's obviously a bunch of other wordage in there, but that's just kind of the nuts and bolts of it. My body games activated. Um had a talk with him. Very respectful. I told him that we wouldn't search upstairs. Told him we're not going to destroy the house. We're just going to search the areas that we know that are under his control, which obviously this is described to us is how I take it. Anybody got an extra pair of gloves on him? Um, I told him if he comes downstairs, he's going to announce himself that we don't like surprises. Should we just lay everything out on the floor? Why don't we take it out and lay it out there? Let's do that. Oh, bunch of weeding at bite. Definitely saw weed. Hold on. Okay. Oh, that's labeled as a ball. Look at this. Yeah. Here's your phone playing up here for you. Oh, you see all that?

I can't see there being much more. This is quite a bit. I mean, this was all the safe, too. I don't know why you'd have it various places. Maybe. I guess. What's this about? Just trying to make a way to those. I've seen people hide them in that that pulls out and then it's a hollow hide. But maybe you couldn't get it open. Yeah. So, probably just kept breaking them.
