Turn around. You have the right to remain silent. >> You said a fan, do you pick up these? >> You got 100 lb in back there, of course. >> If you would have told me when I started this channel that I'd be fanboying the Arkansas State Police, I would have told you you were crazy. But after watching several of their videos and seeing them conduct picture-perfect car stops, conduct interviews and eliciting the exact information to formulate a perfect case, seizing multi-million dollar drug hauls, and predicting the poundage without a scale within a pound, Sergeant Curtis is a fan. This is one of those. >> What license did you turn in? >> Louisiana, 461. 461. It's gray. Chief office, I believe. 7080 split. >> Birth date 12/20. >> Good. And I gave it back. >> Yeah, I have my license here. >> Good vehicle positioning. You saw he canceled his vehicle, and then I think you also noticed that he puts the hand print on the vehicle in case the vehicle [music] flees, his hand print is on the vehicle. Can never say that vehicle wasn't there. Also, a little bit of old-school operation. Back when I first started, we also did that, but also it was the touch down the trunk to make sure that the [music] trunk was secure as you walk past. So, it was a dual purpose. >> Hello. >> I'm great. How are you? I'm Trooper May, State Police. Sir, the reason I'm stopping you, two reasons. One, that big truck, I know there's a bunch of stuff going on over here, but you got way too close to that big truck in the left lane. And then when you're going around it, you drove on that yellow line, and I try to make sure everything's all right. Are you good? Okay. I don't plan on writing a ticket, but do you have your driver's license with you? I'm doing all right. It's a little hot, but ain't too bad. >> Don't be mad if you see my wife. >> Oh, yeah? >> Yeah. She's black. >> Alabama? Oh, commercial? Oh, I ain't mad at you. >> This interaction from the trooper, he's super sharp. Every single thing he says, all of his senses are engaged. Every response matters, and he's really good at this engagement. I'm not a fan of leaning inside of the car like that from a safety perspective, but he's doing his thing as far as gathering the information he may need to see if it needs to be a further investigation. >> Is this a rental then? >> Yes, sir. >> Do you have a rental agreement? >> Yeah. >> Are you driving That'll work. You a owner-operator or or you What brings you through here? Getting it back home? >> Yes, sir. >> You drop off truck out west or something? Or you just dropped truck off at? >> Oklahoma. >> I'm guessing that's where you rented this car at. >> No, I got the truck I got the I didn't get the car in Oklahoma. >> Oh. Okay. But you dropped the truck off there? >> No, I got the I got the I went to Oklahoma. >> Uh-huh. >> I didn't drive the truck there. I'm going to drive it. >> Oh, okay. >> Yeah, I left the truck in Oklahoma. I didn't take the car. >> Oh, I got what you said now. >> Yes, sir. >> Hey, if you I tell you what, the only way I can get this part done if you bring that out here and just look right side my card and you can show me when you find it, that'd be great, okay? Well, I could call them. Did you rent it? >> Yes, sir. >> Okay. >> Who'd you rent it from? >> Enterprise. >> Enterprise. >> Uh one thing, you don't have any weapons or anything, right? >> No. >> I just got to make sure, okay? >> I appreciate it. >> All right, come on over here and get your rental agreement, okay? >> I'm going to stop here. The trooper says, I want to pat you down, you don't have any weapons or anything like that on you. The guy says, no. But that was not a pat down in any way, shape, or form. That is not a pat down. That man has a very baggy shirt. This gentleman here with the orange shirt is essentially not patted down. I want to share something with you, and especially for anyone who likes to research this kind of stuff, and I mentioned it in another video. There is a publication called the LEOKA, Law Enforcement Officers Killed and Assaulted. The feds put out this publication annually. You can go online and find them. I used get the hard copies sent directly to me. I've read every issue of this. They do studies on officers who were killed and assaulted and they interview people who have done this and ask them why. So, I pulled a piece of one of the things that always stood out in my mind about officers who were assaulted or killed in the line of duty. Officers killed in the line of duty were often described as friendly, likable, and easygoing. It was identifying a pattern tied to vulnerability. Over rapport with suspects, dropping the guard too early, treating unknown contexts like known quantities, letting conversation replace control. I hope that it doesn't go in that direction. I've mentioned Lioka before in other videos that the lack of the pat down is a huge red light. I would have stopped the stop. I would have conducted the pat down. We would have went back to the station and talked about it. Very important. >> you doing that, too. I just got to find my room and bring the rental quick. >> Well, how long do you get to stay in Oklahoma for? >> Not long, just a few days. >> That's a big bag back there for a few days. >> Let's see. Enterprise agreement. >> 11 40 54 check Alabama. >> You can go ahead. >> Last name is Reese. First name is Anthony. Date of birth 19720314. 19720314 Alabama. >> Did you have to get an extension? >> Sir? >> Did you have to get an extension? >> Yes, sir. >> Okay. So, you just went to Oklahoma? >> Yes, sir. >> You didn't go out to like New Mexico or anything? >> Sir? >> You didn't go out to like New Mexico or anything? >> Sir, I don't like Oh, yeah, but you told me like to gamble. >> Is there a bunch of casinos over there? >> Yeah, there's a couple of them. They all right. They don't like to pay net. And you said I was um I didn't think I was I didn't I didn't see myself swerving on the line. >> Yeah, on that yellow line. The rumble strips on the outside of it, but you're still supposed to stay inside the lines. >> Let's pause for a second. Let's think about what the configuration likely is right now. My belief that at this point the trooper is inside of the driver seat, likely on his computer checking the rental agreement, facing forward. The driver of the vehicle that he's investigating and has just ran. We don't know if this is going to come back with warrants or anything and he's suspecting something's going on with this vehicle is standing at the passenger side looking in at the trooper and he has not for all intents and purposes been added down. This is important. >> So, you might not felt the rubber strips. But >> I said I didn't see myself swerving. >> That's all right. Like I said, I don't plan on writing you a ticket or anything. >> Sir? >> I said I don't plan on writing you a ticket or anything. So, what's in that bag back there? I am curious. >> What do you mean? What bag? In the back? Oh, just clothes and stuff, sir. >> Nothing bad, no drugs, nothing like that? >> No, I don't >> No weed, no nothing? Marijuana? Meth? Nothing like that? >> No. >> Hang on just a second. I'm going to roll my window up, okay? >> So, he asked if he could check that bag that he noticed in the back and the guy said, "No, you can't check it." >> Jail, I'm 1304, 1346 still tonight? >> Hello, I'm calling. >> Hey, you got that dispatch 46? 10-4, I've got a refusal. >> That's what I'm going to say. Get him out here. >> Is he valid? >> 10-4, he is. >> So, a K9 request to K9 I was made now that the guy refused. So, the trooper obviously feels like there's likely something inside that bag, probably narcotics and through what he's developed through this interaction that he's had with him. At this point, he's good to go to a degree and we'll talk about why he's good to go from this perspective even though the subject refused consent of search of the vehicle. >> Okay, so here's the deal. I've got a K9 in route, okay? >> All right. >> I got a K9 in route, okay? >> Uh-huh. >> So, they're going to run their dog. If it alerts the odor of narcotics, I'm going to search this vehicle. All right. I wasn't born yesterday, okay? Is everything in this vehicle okay? >> Uh yeah, but I'm saying, what's going on? Do I understand? >> I'm under the suspicion that there's drugs in that bag. >> Why? >> Because >> Because what? >> Just the whole story. >> What do you mean, "whole story"? I don't >> Well, we can clear this up if you let me search it. If not, we'll wait for the K9. doing. >> This is so good. I'm going to show you something that is phenomenal. This will help you if you want to see if someone's being deceptive. The trooper says, "Is everything in this vehicle okay?" Which is a yes or a no. If a person doesn't respond yes or no, if they say any utterance other than yes or no, a lot of times you got to think the opposite. What this guy did first was he said, "Huh?" And then he stopped and changed and looked exactly where that bag is. So many times I've had suspects look at what they were afraid that I was going to recover. And this is a textbook view of what exactly happened. Especially if we find what this trooper believes. Cuz the trooper believes that the minute the trooper's looking at it and that guy looked at [music] it, too. Very, very good stuff to see. >> All I'm saying I just don't understand why you're even you don't drive all the way from Alabama to Oklahoma to turn down a job. So, did you pull me over because you saw that it was registered to me and then you wanted to ask me this? >> registered to you. >> Another point I want to make to you, the viewer. I'm sure you're not a drug dealer. You get pulled over by the police and they say to you, "Are there any drugs in your car?" Of course there's no drugs in my car. No, there's no drugs in my car. You may not have want to let the police search your car for whatever reason. But are you going to be that calm about this whole process? I mean, if someone if I ever got accused of doing something that I know for sure I did not do, I'd be like, "No, absolutely not. There are no drugs in my car." So, so much about why you pulled me over and this and this and that. I mean, this is not the behavior of a person who is being honest. >> Careful. Just the dead tag and all that. I stopped you because your vehicle was showing I stopped you because you were following too close and you ran out of your traffic lane. >> I followed too close to a truck? >> Yes. >> I was not there for I drive trucks. >> I understand that, but that's why I stopped you. I understand I believe you drive trucks for a living, all right? But that's why I stopped you. It's all on that camera. It's okay. Now, I am calling a K9, so like I said, I believe there's drugs in that bag right there. So, we're going to wait and find out. If that K9 alerts, I'm going to search, okay? >> All I'm saying is they >> I don't understand. Like I just >> explained it to you. So >> I don't know if this trooper has kids, but if he has kids and they watch this, they're going to be like, "Sir, my dad is not the person that you want to try to do this with. We already learned our lesson. Lying to our dad is not going to work." This trooper is super shot. Aside from that non-pat down thing and in the window, Arkansas I mean look at the guy. I mean he's in absolutely great shape as well. Arkansas, you guys are doing your thing. >> Good. Like this. Right now, put your phone right here, okay? You can record or whatever you want to. Put your phone right here for my safety. I don't want you texting on it in case you in case there's somebody else behind you. Put it on the hood. >> On the hood? >> That's fine. You can put record on the hood. >> Put it on the hood? >> I'll put it where it can show me. >> Yes. >> Okay. >> Let me put it on the hood. I don't want you texting on it right now in case there's rocks or safety. All right. I've been put in weird situations before and I don't like it. I'm safe. You can record all you want. I don't care about that. >> I can't hear anything, sir. >> I understand. That's fine. That's great. Put it down here, okay? >> Very good stuff that he made him put the phone down. I believe the positioning should be a bit different. Also, I want you to take note to this bracelet-looking item that he has on his right wrist, which I wear some of those occasionally. A lot of times it'll have a compass on it. That has rope in it that you can do a multitude of things. It has a little small edged device that you can cut with as well. You can purchase them for really cheap online, but they're very effective tool to have, especially in policing if you're hunting, if you're going camping, those are effective. Leads me to believe that he's some [music] type of tactical person to some degree. >> Set it up somewhere. >> I'm going to have to. >> Okay. That'll work. Thank you. >> Another important thing to notice about these people, they spend hours and hours on the roadways. They look at what a normal person looks at on a highway that sees four lanes of traffic and you're just looking for your lane. They notice every single thing from a car and I'm sure that their family members, if they're watching, will attest to this. They'll be going to Disney World and they'll be in the car and the dad will be like, "You know what? That car right there is likely transport dope." They're so good at what they do and noticing these types of things that it's just second nature to them. They can't get that out of their mind. They're experts, absolute experts. >> You can do it like that, that's fine. I can do this all >> yeah, my concern is not you recording. My concern is in situations, people text other people that may be with them or without them in my line of work, okay? Fair enough? So, officer safety is my thing. I'm recording too. I don't care about being recorded. It's all good. >> officer safety is his thing and I noticed he did do a couple officer safety things, but again, for me, hair on the back of my neck is still standing up cuz this guy is leaning in the window, trooper is occupied and he's not been patted [music] down. So, this is something that I will never let go of because I've seen bad things happen when people are not patted down properly. >> How do you figure I was in New Mexico and in Arizona? Is it right here? What's that? >> It's called a license plate reader. >> Oh, just looking at while I was being in my in the in the truck. >> When I stop people, I do that, yep. >> Ding, ding, ding. Got you. >> So, and you said you pulled me over because I was following too close. >> And you swerved out of your lane on that left side. >> And then I got over. But you >> That's fine, but you still committed the two violations. >> So, why did you have to pull me over when I like when I come past you? And then it's like you pulled out. >> Yeah, I patrol the highway. >> Yeah, I know it, but it's like you pulled out to like target target me for something. >> Target vehicles? >> Huh? I just don't understand. >> I drive up and down this Interstate 10 hours a day, man. You can only sit still You can only sit still for so long. How long have you been truck driving? >> Um >> How long have you been truck driving? >> I had my license '09. >> Make a good living doing it? Hey, do you have a way All right, where I can see the video so that you're looking like you're texting, bro. >> No, not texting. I'll keep my hands free. I don't want you think I'm texting, man. >> All right. >> I ain't trying to piss you off no more than you already have. >> I ain't mad. I promise you. I just don't like being put in those situations. It's officer safety, man. I've seen worse things happen, okay? >> Yeah, you ain't got to Like I said, you ain't got to worry about me, man. I ain't going to put you in no type of situation. >> All good. >> How long it going to be? >> I'll check right now. >> And you look like a straight-up officer of the law, man, but it's just something telling me that ain't [music] why you pulled me over, man. >> You can see in real-time how the suspect is becoming increasingly concerned about his own security. And regardless of how badly he's going to be exposed, he's got good reason to do so. You see, every year millions of people have their private information exposed on the internet without even knowing it, which is exactly why Incogni was created. You see, as we speak, there are potentially hundreds of websites trying to sell your information. And that's on top of all the places where your data has already been leaked and ready for the taking. However, Incogni works by scraping the internet to find where your information has been exposed [music] and immediately sends takedown demands to help wipe your information from the internet in days. And setting up the account is simple as registering and authorizing them to work on your behalf. Plus, with their unlimited plan's new custom removal feature, you can request specific links and Incogni's privacy team will take care of them for you. And this is personal for me. I had a close family member several years ago get scammed to the tune of several thousand dollars. Her information was taken from the internet and they were able to formulate a plan of that money. These predators don't sleep and neither does Incogni. So, take your personal data back with Incogni and use Sergeant Curtis through the link below and get 60% off an annual plan. >> And then, for you to pull me over about a infraction as simple as that, then I don't understand why the other like the things that you asked me, I don't understand why that Just being honest why it would really matter. Like, not saying things don't matter on the highway, but I mean like if you saying, "Okay, you >> I ask everybody those questions, man. It's literally small talk right there at the window. That's all it is. Because, you know, my line of work people get angry when I stop them. >> I ain't going to get I ain't going to get mad at what you doing. >> no, what I'm saying is small talk lets them know that we are human, too. So, and you got that bag in the back for a couple days trip. It doesn't make sense to me, man. My line of work and my experience, that bag is loaded full of dope. That's what I'm trying to tell you. Okay? We're going to find out when the K9 gets here. Okay? >> So, let's talk about case law, Rodriguez versus US. This trooper initially stopped him for a traffic infraction. And during that investigation, she developed the fact or reasonable suspicion, the reasonable suspicion that there is a narcotics challenge or narcotics inside of that vehicle. From all the inconsistencies in store and everything that the trooper explained, which the Rodriguez case gives the police now the ability to hold him until K9 arrives. And if it was just for the traffic stuff, the trooper could only issue the citations, and then he would have to release him. Because he's now developed this reasonable suspicion, this man is still detained until K9 gets there to conduct what the K9 is going to do. That's the Rodriguez v. [music] US. >> If the K9 don't alert to nothing, then you're free to go. You are free to go. >> I can't get in the air, man. >> You want to sit in here? Yeah. >> I don't want to sit in here with you. >> [laughter] >> It's up to you. >> I'll just wait, man. >> You can. Ain't nothing up there. You ain't You ain't locked in. Let me get this out of your way real quick. >> Hang on. Look at all of this junk, man. Oh. No, your car is supposed to be cleaner than that. >> What? That's some water bottles and stuff, man. I ain't got nowhere to put it. Rather put it right there and throw it in the trash than throw it out there. >> So, where it showed you on the camera where it I went where? Huh? Where it showed you on the camera? >> Said New Mexico. >> That's where it said I went. That's where it said got you. >> Yeah. >> I'm predicting you went to California. That's just me. >> How long you been doing this? >> 10 years. So, what's the procedure with the dog now you say? >> He's going to run the canine around the vehicle first sniff. If the dog alerts to the odor of narcotics, we're going to search the vehicle. >> So, and if he don't, then I go on free to go, right? >> Yep. >> So, this is interesting. This really HD POV of this suspect now looking at the camera and engaging and having a conversation with the trooper and him still denying that he's carrying this narcotics. So, it's going to be interesting and this is really good for you to watch and listen to because if you want to find out characteristics of deception, you can watch this person and I'm sure that they'll display some. Something that I noticed is this ear protection that the officer has, which is pretty good ear protection and he has this American flag on the side of his ear protection. It leads me to believe that yes, he trains but he cares enough about it to personalize it. So, there are a lot of good things about him that he's done tactically and he's a really, really good investigator. So, these are things that you should key in on if ever you're called upon to be on a jury or you want to see the degree of officer you're dealing with. >> And what does the history like [music] you look back on my history, what does that have to do with me like >> It runs your criminal history. >> Yeah, 26 class one. What makes that bad though? You know, everybody has past. >> Everybody does have a past. Doesn't necessarily make you bad. >> Arkansas. You're Arkansas State Police? >> Mhm. >> What uh what drove you to do that? Money or what? >> Just struggling. Yeah. Just growing up in the hood, man. >> I'm talking about did you just need some money? Were you in a pinch? That's usually why people do that. >> Saying back then That's just you know just growing up in a just low income situation, you know, like just being honest, you know. >> I I up in the country, >> Yeah. yeah. But I just, you know, I did something bad I'm not proud of. You know, I did some Nobody ain't meant to be proud of. You know what I'm saying? People do things that, you know, they get pushed to do things when they're under certain tensions. Didn't hurt nobody about it, you know, like how some guys get out here and their car something. Do some real messed up stuff. What was it? Back then I was doing it. I was finding pills. Pills? For what? Like hydros or what? I'm a Christian man. I like to think. So, [clears throat] but just because people do bad things don't mean they're bad people. I really like this trooper's demeanor because I think that he is very, very sincere in the things that he says and he puts people at ease. And despite the fact he doesn't think he could take care of business, I think that his genuine personality is amazing. But also, let's go back to the fact that this person has not been patted down in the things that were mentioned in the Leoka study. Always maintain the safety and disability to be congenial and ready to do whatever you have to do. I've been shot also, wrong place at the wrong time, man, but it's fine. But it hit me had to just wasn't It wasn't something that I was in. That's what's crazy, but you know, it's just life, man. And it's just life. The Lord puts us through struggles to make us stronger and to test our faith. And the choices that you have you have, you know, you have choices. You know what I mean? And choices you make determines You know, there's one thing you have you got a chance and a choice, you know, every day you get up and you got a chance. So, like you you're a police officer. You wake up every morning, you know, thank God and you got a chance and you got a choice. Your choice is to, you know, be strong, be there, do what you do. So, I appreciate what y'all do, man. I I been mad at no police officer doing no no job that they do. It's their job. >> 13 46 10-11 can I come up the wrong way on the exit ramp? >> Yeah, 10-4 right we're right at the edge of it. Let's go ahead and get out. Ain't nobody back here. >> I appreciate that. >> Uh-huh. >> What's the dog's name? >> I don't know his name. >> Good question. I don't know his dog. He's shaking and not like it's hammering in you. You know what I mean? Like how some cops they can be really mean. What do you say to my being like that? >> Well, I don't try to be a a person no matter what side. All right. Come over here since he's going to get the dog out. >> What did he do? I want to see. >> You can. Just come back here. So, the stand back what that mean? That means stay out of the dog's way. >> Oh, right. I'm saying get that like messing stand up with him. >> Well, but he might get distracted or something and he might be your office pet. You don't want that. He's a big old dog. >> Okay, couple things with the K9 arrival I'd like to mention. The first is and this goes back to the pat down. We put faith in the officer that's on scene that they have conducted a pat down and the K9 officer is going to make that same assumption. We'll see how that goes as they engage one another. Illinois versus Caballes US Supreme Court case not a violation of a person's Fourth Amendment right to illegal searches and seizures by a dog sniffing the free air around the vehicle. We're also good because of the Rodriguez because of the reasonable suspicion now the K9 is here. There could be a challenge if the trooper opens the door of the vehicle or they go inside the vehicle which would be a US versus Jones violation. Look these cases up. It's very interesting cuz they can all piece together to make sure this is done properly. Now, here's a really interesting thing. Most departments they do what's called like a passive alert which is would be the dog would just like sit down once they alert to the narcotic and that is a really cool thing because then that tells the handler what's going on and then the other trooper should know as well. Look for the sit. >> Find it. Find it. >> It's the same but it You can slide down that hill. Just go You can go down the hill, see? >> [laughter] >> Oh, yeah. That's That's That's That's ain't right, man. That dog All right. Hang out down there for me, okay? I'll be right back with you. >> That dog alerted. Suspect's behind the trooper. Not fan of that. >> to tell him? Huh? You want to explain it to him? Okay, the canine alerted. He's going to explain what >> the dog see it? >> I've seen him go around a bunch of times but then it wasn't nothing there. >> We do three passes. So, we'll do like a free air, let him sniff their own and then we'll do a detail. Uh but whenever he sits right here, they're they're only trained on five odors narcotic wise, okay? Turn around. Turn around. Yeah, the right to remain silent. Anything you say can will be used against you in a court of law. You have the right to an attorney. You can't afford one. One will be appointed to you. Hey, can you get my other set of cuffs out there? >> Yeah, you want some of mine? >> Well, I got one right there. Just got to wait to get straight out. I guess he's fine. Okay, you can sit down inside but again >> Man, can you put them in the front of me? >> I can't do that. It's a felony arrest, man. I would. Awesome. I'll help I'll help you. There you go. All right. >> Really good investigation. I mean, so many good things. I got to talk about a couple of separate things off. If this gets challenged on the K9 part, there's a really [music] good case. Everyone makes one in Florida, but Florida really created an interesting case law. It went to the Supreme Court, Florida versus Harris. I think it's 2013. Double check that. And it was a 9-0 unanimous that if a K9 alerts, if the K9 has been trained properly, that that's going to be good enough for the officers to utilize that as probable cause. And they can go inside the vehicle. But if this gets challenged in court, at the training, they look to see if the K9 is queuing the dog in some way, shape, or form. And they also look for was the alert reliable? Like, did the dog just sit down cuz he was tired? I'm tired. It's Florida and it's hot, so I sat down. All of the training records and all of the different things that they have to document in their [music] report make it a phenomenally clean, clear-cut case that this dog alerted [music] properly. These guys are doing a phenomenal job. And I'll always mention the officer safety things. But this trooper is almost clairvoyant with what he was saying and being right about every >> [music] >> single thing. >> I got one. Good. >> Any of them or you just Do you want me to just call you the one of them? >> Huh? >> What do you think it is, man? >> Yeah, it's crunchy. >> Is it crunchy? >> Okay. Oh, yeah. >> Is it a bunch? >> Oh, yeah, that's meth. And there's a bunch in there, too. Yeah, he He went to California. >> He come out from California? Somebody going to grab this hat? >> So, they're saying that it's speed or methamphetamine. And this has evolved so much over the course of the last 10, 15, 20 years the way that meth was. I used to run into meth labs all the time when I was a street cop. And they would be cooking inside of their trailer or their house or whatever. And the laws got really strict and the ways that the precursors were protected made it really difficult for them to get the precursors to cook the meth. And so, the meth manufacturing now is mostly done south of the border. And it's controlled by the cartels, which makes it even more critical and more dangerous. So, this is a phenomenal thing that this trooper has done by making this stop. >> Uh wouldn't see. Brady's the only one out, so >> I can Unless it's a rental. >> Yeah. >> You want me to throw it in the trunk? >> You got room? >> Yeah, we can make room. >> All right, let me take my photo. >> Keep an eye on this guy in the backseat. The super nice guy, he's fiddling around doing something behind his back. [music] And I'm hoping that he was checked really closely before he was placed in the car. >> Hold that thought. Let's see if we can get a driver. >> Okay. Hi, man. It's Tanner Hass with the state police. You busy? Man, we're We're here in Pope County. Colby just stopped one. I don't know. I hadn't talked ran the dog. It's a pretty good lick of meth if y'all were interested. I don't know where he's going. I hadn't got the story, but >> What do you think? 50-60 lbs? 50-60 lbs you think? >> I'd say 50 or 60 lbs just by what I've seen. >> He's doing something. >> Yeah, Pope. We can We can go to Russ the Russellville. You want to go to the Russellville office or Dover? >> Is it still available for Russellville? >> No, I'm at like They're going to take the dope with me even go to DTF. Container has I got that cocaine load down on on 30 y'all came out. I just say you >> You just haven't had this plane. Jalapeño. >> Yeah, we're either going to go up. I'll ask him, but we're either going to go to Russellville or Dover, but it's both in Pope County. >> Okay. >> All right. All right, I appreciate it. >> That's crunchy, but in here it's zip lock bags, so you have >> Oh, yeah. That's crunchy. >> That's good. Good job. Hey. Hey, y'all throw them hitters away. These [ __ ] Hey, they got me hemmed up. Y'all throw them hitters away. All right. >> I don't know if you heard him, but he said, "They got me hemmed up. Y'all go ahead and throw those pills away." Best witness against yourself. I said it before. He just incriminated himself so incredibly right there on camera. And not only that, but that number is logged on who he called. >> Let me get a picture of that. I can't think Okay, I'll put his name. >> I'd be careful touching that. >> Thank you. Do we have a TFO right now for you? >> Well, this guy's not TFO. He's >> Oh, it's Yeah, we do. What is his name? >> Oh, you're talking about Cody Martin. >> Yeah. >> I didn't call him. I should have, but I I don't know him. >> to take this up to the main office? I checked everything. Did they call DTF yesterday? >> No, I hadn't. >> Hey, they got >> me hemmed up, babe. Don't cry now. I love you. I love you and Kendall dearly, but yeah, they got me, babe. They got me hemmed up. I'm in Arkansas. Don't worry about it. I'mma be okay. I promise you. Just be be good.

It's a bunch of that, too, babe. >> So, it sounds like he's calling his girlfriend right now. They got me hemmed up. I love you, babe. They got me booked up. Booked up. Whatever. Something like that. What is the response of a normal person? Who's that? What is hemmed up? What What's going on? Tell me that What do you mean by this? >> When a person doesn't respond in that manner, [music] it shows me that they're likely complicit in whatever he was doing. And by saying this on camera, if there are seizures that go on, you can be sure that that's going to be utilized in evidence cuz that number is logged. So, it's really incredible to think in policing. And it's not that incredible, but in policing >> Half of what you see, none of what you hear. This guy was being super nice to nice guy when he was sitting next to the trooper in the vehicle, denying everything. Could this guy say, "What do I have to lose? I don't want to be away from my girlfriend and I'm not going to prison." Seen people say it before. >> I'll be in touch with you as soon as I can, okay? >> All righty. >> I'll get on I'll get Goat to give you some money. He owes me some money. I'm going to get Goat to give you some money. That stuff out at the house you know what to do with it. All right. I love you. Bye. >> We got to go to the sheriff's office first. >> He is going to talk? >> What was his story? Said he was going to Oklahoma. Uh looking for a truck driving job. Didn't like it. Came back. >> You have a CDL? But you got him out in California? >> I got him in New Mexico. >> Oh, yeah. Good. That's good. >> Then he got real defensive over here. He said he was going to Oklahoma. Uh Alabama's where it says. You said Alabama. >> It's okay. Okay. >> Woah! Got that >> fancy one. >> I love you so much, boo. You didn't see this in the back floor board? >> [laughter] >> You got a little weed? >> I didn't see this in the back floor board. And all I can smell was that very loud air freshener. >> I think he was going for a whole 'nother bag. >> Look at this. >> A weed? >> I go I found that in that bag. >> How about weed? >> I wouldn't sniff that. >> Too late. >> Oh, does it smell like coming out of there? >> Well, yeah, you open the back. >> That vendor bag. >> What's going to be allowed now? >> That's definitely pills. I don't know what the rest of this is. >> I guess that's fake. What's this stuff? >> Hey. >> Back up before you start spreading dust everywhere. >> I'm like already feel dizzy. >> I bet that's too much, so much, baby. >> You see the blue ones? >> Are they blue pills? >> They look like blue pills. >> Oh, you know what it is, then. >> But, I say that, but now it's not looking like it. All right. >> My back seat? Yeah. >> There's >> I don't know if he'll fit, but I'm thinking about you. Back there? >> No. >> I'm going to do this hot thing. >> Yeah, yeah. >> I'll keep my rear ice on. I know it's hot there. >> Cuz of that that I don't have no vents back there. We're going to put you in this hot car cuz it's got air vents, okay? >> All right, we're going to have We're going to have to put him in the front. He sits back there. >> All right, we can do that. Hey, let me get you right here. I'm going to put him in the front, okay? Sound good? >> Let's see if I >> See if you put this in airplane mode. >> Yeah. >> You want me to? >> So, the airplane mode is a really good tactic to use. It prevents the leading data and it prevents tracking. It's good that they're following every step to make sure that this investigation goes exactly where it needs to go. >> All right, what's your Can you type your passcode in there? Uh I'm putting your phone in airplane mode. >> I I put it in airplane mode. >> Just don't text anybody, okay? >> All right. >> It's back there. >> There you go. Appreciate it. >> All right. Come this way. >> This way, this way, this way. His seat's on side. All right. >> Hey, when you step up, just don't step on that line, if you don't mind. I know it's kind of out of the way here. Let's see if I can get the seat belt on you. Yeah, I don't think I'm going to be able to get a seat belt on you. Oh, maybe. There we go. You good? >> Yeah. >> Let me get All right. >> It's just for the report. >> Okay. You can take it. >> Thank you. Thank >> Man, it's hot out here again. >> It's hot. >> I'm going to sit in the car. >> I don't blame you. They got a truck coming to get the the car. >> Uh we're going to drive it in. Uh DTF guy's going to drive it. >> Huh? >> One of the drug task force guys is going to drive it. >> Oh. Where are they Where are they taking me? >> Um I don't exactly Eventually, Polk County jail. >> Would I go to like a federal holding? >> Uh DEA's probably going to come talk to you. I mean, it it's really up to you if you want to work with them or not. >> What do you mean work with them? >> You know what I mean? You know how it works, man. You get caught with something. If you can give some information, it'll always be good. >> Oh. Oh. Oh. >> [laughter] >> Yeah, sometimes you you know, when you when when you do things, man, and you know, and you make your bed, sometimes you have to lay in it. Yeah. You know what I mean? >> I understand. >> Cuz nobody you know, don't nobody makes your bed for you. You make your bed yourself. You you can make it soft. You can make it hard. So, you say you just guessed there was something in there, huh? >> Well, you know, I I I wasn't here for the whole interaction, but you know, it was portrayed to me that there was reasonable suspicion and belief, you know, basically that there was criminal activity present, and that uh that lets us you know, that that's why he could hold you until my dog gets got here. >> In these kind of cases, it's not really him that they really want. The feds want the guy that's supplying the guy that's supplying the guy that's supplying that guy. That's what he really want. It's just like a food chain and this [music] guy is very low in the food chain in spite of him having that quantity of narcotics allegedly in his vehicle. >> What make you think made the dog alert? >> Say what? Oh, I don't think I know. >> What made him alert? >> The odor of narcotics. He's only trained on five different odors. So. >> You think it was that little weed? >> You know, I mean You never know. It could be a mixture of both. It could be a stronger odor, you know uh You never know. It all depends on where the odor's coming from and you know, if he can get an odor. But he looked like over here on your driver side, you know, he he kind of did a double take, you know, we call those profound alerts, you know, when they're >> And that little bag of weed right there by the door. >> Well, he sat right at that. So. >> Is it just meth? Is that all it is? >> I have no idea. >> Okay. >> Have me all on the news? >> No. >> Huh? >> We don't want the public to see you on the news. >> Huh? >> This isn't one of those that Well, I don't know. I would say I don't think this is one of those cases that it'd be on the news, but I never know. >> Is this a federal situation? >> Uh what do you mean? >> Like did the feds put him on me? >> No. No, he didn't he didn't know you were coming. >> What's the dog name? >> Chaos. >> Chaos? >> Mhm. >> Chaos, you cause chaos. >> [laughter] >> Got the right name, Chaos. You damn sure cause some chaos. You just doing your job, ain't you, buddy? I know it, man. If I would have been doing nothing wrong, I wouldn't have to worry about it, right? Do they let you call your family and stuff? >> Yeah, you can make calls, dude. >> Huh? >> Yeah, you Yeah, you'll be able to make calls. How are you? >> I'm lovely. don't you have a question, sir? >> Look at him, he's clapping, but they're happy about that. They're clapping, but they're happy. >> Oh, yeah.

I'm good. How are you? >> He said you had the other phone that this guy had. >> I didn't know there was two of them. >> There is, sir. This one was in the console as well, up in the >> I just told him what we'll do is the expert I just allowed because you guys got to hold the bag, so probably going to come down try to >> talk to this guy. >> is I'm going to send the phones with you guys for now, okay? That way when they get there, sometimes they will when they want to take them, sometimes they do, and if not, no big deal. I'm going to go get everything weighed so we have a ballpark idea what we have. >> more than 50 g. I don't like those things. I always That's a good call. Thanks. >> Yeah, he's got We got a couple more that was in the backpack. >> to be >> Okay. >> Yeah, they're in that bag where they were They were in his backpack.

That's why it's probably a good thing to, you know >> You said the feds do pick up these? >> Of course. >> Why? Cuz it's the amount? >> I mean that you got All right, 100 lbs of meth back there, of course. >> You probably got 100 lbs of meth back there.

I don't know. >> How is the county, man? Is it packed out? >> Man, I I don't think so. >> 1346 Clarks Bluff, jail 11 itself. >> DTA. >> On the original video, I said that there was about 100 lb of methamphetamine, which was close to what the prediction was by the trooper, which is absolutely amazing to me. There was also a large quantity of fentanyl pills, and we know how deadly fentanyl can be. And they were also saw a small amount of marijuana. A couple of things I'd like to share with you. There's a little thing that goes between highway patrol and [music] the troll type police from local police departments, and there's little ribbing that goes back and forth, even though there's a camaraderie amongst the two. We used to even call them as a joking tail light [music] chasers. But, it becomes so humbling when you really watch the number of lives that these troopers save. 100 lb in one stop. Most patrol officers don't see 100 lb in their whole [music] career. That's not even counting the fentanyl that was inside the vehicle. That was just the meth. That doesn't count the number of vehicle accidents that they prevent just by their presence. When you see a highway patrol, what do you do? You slow down. They don't get a lot of the shine [music] that they really should get and I'm so happy that I was humbled by me being able to see the professionalism by this department, [music] the efficiency, this phenomenal investigation, and take these drugs off the street that protect us all. Criminals detour around Arkansas whichever way that you possibly can cuz they do not play around and I'm thankful for that. I also want to close with saying that I hope that this trooper makes a better pat down going forward. I call them like I see them and it wasn't an effective pat down and we need you on the street. You're at 10 years, whenever this video was made, we need you to do 30 years and we want you to go home to your family every single night. And one of the peace to the pat down because he's likely highly respected. [music] And if there's a new troop that comes onto a stop and sees that pat down and he believes that that's a good pat down. I'm hoping maybe there was another pat down conducted off frame and it's not that I'm harping on this too much because proper pat downs save lives. Shout out to Arkansas State Police. [music] I was a Marine and you guys look like amazing Marines in uniform. Thank you for what you do. [music] Thank you for keeping us safe.
