Get out of the car right now. PUT IT IN PARK. DO NOT DRIVE AWAY. GET ON THE GROUND. PUT YOUR HANDS BEHIND YOUR BACK. >> In old school policing, we have a saying. Take care of the misdemeanor and the felonies will take care of themselves. And no better place is exemplified when in patrol you find a really good misdemeanor car stop. Then when you have the car stopped, the driver attempts to take off with your arm inside and inside of the vehicle you find a cash of drugs and money. This is one of those. >> Turn it off. Turn it off. Brother, >> you got your license on you? The reason why I pulled over, you man, is because your window tent. Okay? I don't need your credit card. >> Oh, well, you listen. Listen. That's going to be Listen. >> Get your tent, man. >> Hey, watch this here. You can get the window tent. I've been tested for my window tent 2 years ago. >> You hear me talk about the positioning. You see how tactically advantageous it is for the officer to be behind this B-pillar that the driver has to turn around. The officer is in very good tactical position here. Make them reach back to you. Good job. >> And K out on top. But yeah, you can check. >> You give me two inches. You actually do me a favor. Just give me two inches. 2 in. >> Yeah, there's two inches in there. I know. That's good right there. >> That's good, buddy. >> Okay. So, 28's the legal tent. >> I already know I'm legal. >> You're not. 17 is where it's at. >> So, that's illegal. >> That is 28. >> Yes, sir. 28 is the legal limit in the state of Florida. >> God damn. >> So, it needs to be above 28. >> I complimented the one officer's positioning. The officer that's straight on, you've heard me speak about this before. I'm not a fan of your torso and head being right on with the driver. If you go gun to gun at the same time, at best, it's going to be a draw and likely you're not going to get that draw. Now, this tent situation, in different states, the rules are different as far as how much visibility needs to come out of the vehicle. You can see that they have a tent meter, and they're going to be able to easily tell whether it's legal. Now, let me talk about something from the legal perspective. You get two officers on a car stop for a tinted window vehicle. Now, a lot of people would call this a pretextual stop, which is REN versus US, a Supreme Court case, which means that if the police want to stop you for something as minor as this, but they want to see if there's something else inside, it's absolutely fine. The subjective thoughts of the officer does not matter. And people get mad when they hear about these pretextual stops, but the Supreme Court has ruled on this. In my opinion, I've done them before. Do you normally get two officers on a vehicle that is overly tinted? Not so much, but we'll see what happens. >> You're lower than that. So, that means you're illegal, which means you cannot see or less clarity of lights coming through this vehicle. >> What? Then the other guy pulled me and said I was straight. That was two What about 2 3 years ago? It's been like this forever. >> Okay. >> Okay. >> Next time, buddy, I'm just going to shoot you straight forward. Come to a complete stop next time. Okay. >> I didn't stop. >> Well, you trying to go to your house. You're pointing this way. No, no, no. I was trying to tell cuz I was going to park right there and try to >> I got you. Okay. I thought you was just trying to get the car back. I respect that. >> Okay. >> Real quick. Sit still for me. >> Huh? >> Do me a favor. Step out of the car. >> For what? >> Because this is marijuana inside your shirt. >> I got Listen. Yeah. And I got Listen, hold on before we go through all that. >> I smell the odor of burnt marijuana. Anyways, >> I understand. I understand. >> Still, this does not give you the out to have smoked marijuana in the car. Just so you know. >> Yeah, but I didn't have smoked marijuana in the car. I had marijuana on me on my shirt. That's it. >> So, the odor of burnt marijuana is emitting from the car. I'm telling you to get out because that gives me problem. We'll cause you search to the vehicle. >> This does not give you the out. >> Go get calls. Go get >> No, sir. You're going to get out of this vehicle. >> Call s I'm a corporal. >> Hey, buddy. >> Go ahead. Undo your seat belt. Come talk to me. 41. >> Both of these officers are corporal, which means they're senior. I'm going to talk at the end about the corporal rank. And this video is from 2023. So, understand the marijuana laws from state to state vary and they are quickly evolving and changing. So, understand that the law during a 2023 video may be very different than right now. So, understand what the law is in your jurisdiction for the present day that you're watching. >> Hold on. Let me let me call somebody cuz this it's crazy, bro. >> You're on body camera just so you know. >> I I can't be on body camera. >> No, you're fine. That's I'm letting you know. So, just I'm telling you about the behavior. >> Let me get my camera, too. Let me get my camera cuz this is crazy for you guys. >> This is crazy. You you going you going to grab some marijuana off my shirt in 10 minutes? No, that ain't that ain't how it go. >> Well, sir, I'm >> You got my license? >> I got your license. You don't have to hold it. Just send me another one. Routine, please. >> Radio ear. I heard a code red beep or a beep that said that they wanted to hold the radio traffic for these officers cuz he asked for another unit cuz the guy was being non-compliant. But this officer has the presence of mind saying, "I don't need him to rush to my location." Still roll them here, but just routine so that you don't have officers rolling code. You hear me talking about officers rolling code? We want to try to avoid that. If you have to roll code, roll. But if you can avoid it, you should avoid it. Rolling code meaning lights and siren. >> Now, what we doing here? >> I want you to get out of the vehicle because it's a lawful order. Okay. I smell the odor of burnt marijuana. I'm trying to explain it to you as nice and as polite as it could be, sir. And I haven't treated you with >> What you going to do? >> I'm going to search this vehicle. Okay. Because I have >> You can't search my car about no marijuana. >> I sure can, sir. >> No, you can't. You cannot, sir. >> Okay, sir. Look, if you do not cooperate, you're going to be resisting. Okay, that's obstruction of justice. You can go to jail. Charge. Okay. >> We do not want to do that to you. We want you to step out of the vehicle and comply with us. Okay? >> Because listen, listen. I don't consent to no searches in my car. >> You don't have to consent. Yeah. >> There's probable cause. It exists. Now, please step out of the car. >> So, listen. This is really important. This case that gives the officers the right to do that is the Carol versus US case. This is a 1925 Supreme Court ruling. This is an exception to the search warrant rule. There were officers in 1925 who founded some bootleggers and the vehicle was he weighed down very heavily and they conducted a stop on the vehicle and for that reason they felt that the people were bootlegging. They tried to suppress the alcohol that the officers found in the car and the Supreme Court said listen it makes sense vehicles can move. If you have to get a search warrant the person can end up leaving and you can't obtain the evidence. So understand from 1925 this exception to search warrants for vehicles has existed. Research it yourself. Carol versus US 1925 US Supreme Court ruling. I am not going to let nobody search my car. >> Sir, if you do not get out of the vehicle on your own free will, we're going to remove you. Okay? And you're going to go to jail. >> Don't do it. Don't do it. Don't do it. >> Don't do it. Don't do it. Don't do it. >> Get out OF THE CAR RIGHT NOW. PUT IT IN PARK. >> OKAY. OKAY. OKAY. >> DO NOT DRIVE AWAY. >> OKAY. >> OPEN THE DOOR. >> HANDS UP. >> Get out. >> Okay. Okay. Don't do Okay. >> Watch out. Watch out. MOVE. GET ON THE GROUND. YOU'RE GOING TO BE YOU'RE GOING TO BE CHASED. GET ON THE GROUND. GET ON THE GROUND. GET ON THE GROUND. GET ON THE GROUND. GET ON THE GROUND. PUT YOUR HANDS BEHIND YOUR BACK. PUT YOUR HANDS BEHIND YOUR BACK. >> OKAY. OKAY. >> If you If you resist, YOU WILL BE TASED. >> OKAY. OKAY. >> Put your hands behind your back. Don't move. >> Okay. >> Okay. >> 627 clear station 1 to 10. >> In custody. Woo. That was wild. So, the guy is going to take off. The officer reaches inside the vehicle to attempt to stop him from taking off. The officer draws down on him at gunpoint and they're able to take him into custody. There's some challenges when officers reach inside of moving vehicles. There's a thing called officerinduced jeopardy that people talk about. Did the officer create the jeopardy to make him have to use deadly force on a person? And that can become a challenge. In fact, there was a case Smith versus Cup and I believe it was a 1999 case. Look it up. And it wasn't a Supreme Court ruling, but it talked very specifically about officers creating the jeopardy that makes them use deadly force. And I'm not suggesting that that's what happened here. I couldn't see even everything that happened because it was so much moving around. I will say be incredibly careful to what degree you place yourself in the car. And we're going to listen to what he says going forward now that we have the guy in custody about did he potentially create some degree of that jeopardy. Even if he may not have actually done it, does he say things [music] that make one believe that he created some of the jeopardy himself? In the Smith versus Cup case, it was very similar to this where the officer ended up reaching inside of the car. However, in this instance, the officer [music] discharged his firearm and the subject was at the scene and succumb to his injuries. >> This could have been really Listen, can somebody >> Can you make a phone? Can you make a phone call for me? >> No. No. >> What? Come on, man. >> You're just TRYING TO DRIVE AWAY WITH ME HANGING ON. >> LISTEN, I WASN'T TRYING TO drive with you hanging on. I was trying to get to the car. >> Oh, that's okay. >> Now you're going to go to jail for resisting. >> Oh, don't go, bro. >> Come on, bro. >> We don't need no more units. >> Sir, all you have to do is get out. I We pleaded. >> We trying to be This is >> I even looked at me. I even told you, bro. Talk to me. And you going to do this nonsense with this young man. >> All right. Stand up on your sit on your butt. >> All right. >> I'm going to get you. >> You're a big dude. >> Okay. Right down there. >> Stop. Stop. Stop. Stop. Let's put Let's get >> Listen. Are you hurt? Are you hurt? >> I just want to secure some things. >> Right down there. >> I'll take care of that. You're not in any more security than with us. >> No. What I'm saying? I just want that guy to know he in the house right there where the white car at. >> You almost got Man driving away with me hanging on. You lost your mind. >> That's how bad things happen over stupid things. Sir, misdemeanor amount. Probably >> have a seat for me, sir. I'm still gonna be polite to you, even though I didn't deserve that. >> I'm sorry, man, but listen. >> Listen, you almost got over something so pitily as tent and marijuana. >> But listen, please contact the guy. He's right down the road. That's >> You literally had that opportunity and you messed it all up for yourself. I am a reasonable person, but you just try to drive away with me hanging on that car. >> Well, I didn't know you was going to jump on there. I didn't >> Why the hell would you even try that? >> Cuz I was trying to get to his house. He got >> You lost that, sir. >> In the comment section, I'd like for people to comment on what their thoughts on on officers reaching inside of the vehicle when a person is attempting to take off. If they're trying to turn the car off, they're attempting to pull the keys out, whatever they're attempting to do. What are your thoughts on officers reaching inside of a vehicle that's attempting to take off? I really, really would like to hear your thoughts. And this looks like it's about to get even more interesting because it looks like there's a narcotics investigation that's going to start. >> I thought I was going to signal 35. >> I was hanging on. I was going to hop off, but he started driving away and I reached in for the keys. >> He had a piece of weed hanging onto his shirt. >> Stop. You did? >> Yeah. >> You did? >> Yeah. Okay, >> we're all good. >> Good. So, you were holding on. I was pulling the vehicle. >> I reached in and I got to this and I think I pulled it out enough for it to stop. >> Oh, you turned it off. >> I grabbed the key fob or the ring. >> I had just reached in to unlock the door. And he turned it back on. >> So I reached in far enough to like pull the key out and it stopped. >> Okay. Um, have you actually searched him pretty good or not? >> I got his pockets. >> You got pockets? >> He had weed on his shirt, which is still up here. Look, I was like, you got weed on your shirt. >> All right. >> Okay. >> I can smell the odor of burnt weed. So you're getting out of this car right there. >> Nothing in it. >> Weirdest bag I've ever seen. >> This is ice. He has a valve last until 2025 showing him 1054 1029. >> Okay. Again, both of these officers are corporals and I'm fascinated by that rank in policing and I'll explain a little bit what I understand about it. My department didn't have it, but I'll explain a little bit at the end about the corporal rank. >> I am showing inmate release status. >> A lot of cash. 2007 >> the right >> I don't mean I'm going to find it I don't want it >> so far >> oh possession of look what we have here >> so far >> this officer is good because I mean listen he's got the radio here because if you didn't catch it the dispatcher was saying he had a prior for that and then that's also what they found in the car so he's multitasking and it seems like they're just arbitrarily looking through this stuff but they're doing a really high level job of going through this listening to the radio and figuring ing out exactly what they have going forward. A lot of efficiency regarding the search element of this. >> Lidocaine patches. I mean, lidocaine is not illegal. >> Dig through this. It's >> not lidocaine is an over the counter. >> It's uh no different than like >> like the the Ben gay sprays and stuff like that >> since this is more strategic. Dig through this right here. >> Just do me a favor. Notate where where we start getting things out from. >> Oh, [ __ ] >> Yep. How much >> that was in the four >> area? >> Unless you want to be a part of the station. Just say just hang out for security. That's it. Other than that, nothing else. Yeah, >> we got we got utensils though. >> I know, but I'm just letting you know. I'm looking. >> So, I don't know if you caught that, but he said, "I'm looking to find the gun." Very often when you find narcotics, there's also a firearm as well. The thing about finding a firearm is that the case can actually go federal. A lot of times if you find narcotics coupled with a firearm or there are enhancements in certain jurisdictions, it definitely increases [music] the charges in most jurisdictions. In these kinds of searches, what they're definitely looking for is this for personal use or for sales. So, if you're personal use, it's usually a smaller quantity. If it's for sales, there's certain things they're looking for. So, things that people would have for packaging, like Ziploc bags. You're looking for things like potentially [music] O sheets, which are like notes where you say, "This person owes this, the person owes that." The other thing you're going to be looking for are scales and denominations of money. And often the money is folded in a very strange way because certain money goes to this person, certain money came from that person. So if you ever see a stack of money, and it's folded strangely, a lot of times that will be noted that it's potentially from narcotic sales. >> And then sandwich bags, obviously, it's part of intent. >> Oh, baggies are distrib. >> Well, he's got all this individually packaged for such and then he's got a whole bottle that'll be trapped in weight. This is like coins. >> You know how some tweakers paying coins? >> So when you hear him say trafficking weight, so trafficking is usually by weight depending on the drug. So a lot of times the green stuff or trafficking is going to be a much much higher weight than the white stuff. So understand that measuring and having your own personal police scale is incredibly important in the field cuz you don't want to use their scale and to see if you have the right amount for a trafficking charge which is usually higher penalties than just a possession charge. >> Oh my god, full of coins. And they full of coins. >> Coins like, you know, 50 cents, 20 cents, 30 cents. >> And then there's a little bit of cash. >> That's proceeds. >> That's That's proceeds. >> When you hear him saying proceeds, in most jurisdictions, the proceeds from narcotics transactions are subject to seizure by that jurisdiction. Sometimes it includes the vehicle that the person was driving in. And those are the things a lot of times that you'll see at police auctions. They don't sell the narcotics, but the cash or other items can be auctioned off if it's seized legally. An interesting point, highway patrol usually wipes the floor with police departments as far as seizure stuff because those interdiction team sees a lot of money. >> So, all this was next to the If y'all could just stay for security cuz he's not very he's not very far from his house. He's like literally down the street. Y'all don't have to do anything other than just stand and just be pretty. >> The label's so fated on this. I can't even tell what this is. Marijuana jar. No label. Oh, got a scale. A >> heavily used scale. >> Heavily used, caked on. Never seen just so you can look at it. So, this was really good what the corporal did with the rookie. There was a rookie that had never seen what he said. He said, "Have you ever seen?" He had never seen it before. And so in policing, there's a term that we use when we write our reports through my training and experience. So this counts for that rookie has training and experience that he's actually seen it cuz it can be embarrassing if the rookie ends up getting called on another case and they said, "Have you ever seen this before?" And he says, "No, I've never even seen it before." So it's good that this corporal gave him that bit of experience. >> You know why he was trying to get to his house and not stop him? He >> was probably going to bail on us. >> Yeah. Yeah. That's what you What are you saying? I'm stuck. >> 90 for this one. 90 91. We're only allowed to take up to 100 g 108. >> I'd like to explain something to you about this type of car stop, which is a very good car stop for police at this point in bigger departments and I'm sure this department is likely that size as well. What would be really good would be to let narcotics know about the stop because the truth is this is a good stop and it's very good for street level patrol, but narcotics can get so much more. They don't want this guy. They want the guy that supplies this guy. So what would happen is this patrol officer or deputy would contact someone from narcotics and say, "Hey, listen. I got this guy. Are you guys working him? Do you are you have anything that you want to talk to him potentially about?" And then this guy can maybe work a deal with narcotics and narcotics can start to work on the next step of the process, which is a phenomenal process because it helps get the higher level dealers. And this corporal can actually work himself into getting a position into narcotics if he likes working these kind of cases. And it looks like that he does. Sir, >> can you see? Can you smell >> little bit? >> I can smell >> all this for a dond. >> He tried to drive away with me hanging on. Nice. >> All of this is money. Different denominations. >> Oh, just a random thing. >> No, it's it's my drug. >> Yeah. >> This is pretty good pieces, man. >> Chunks 15 g. I was I'll pull the rest rest rest rest rest rest rest rest rest rest rest rest rest rest rest rest rest rest rest rest rest rest rest rest rest rest rest rest rest rest rest rest rest rest rest rest rest rest rest rest rest of that out make sure that that's not something else other than me wheat >> I got to count the money I got to get a rough count on the money at least >> that's a field test where you put just a small amount inside of that little plastic bag and you agitate it to see if you get the color matching if you do then it's positive and then you have the PC for sure it's tested again in a laboratory in most jurisdictions to ensure because the field test obviously there are some contaminants could possibly [music] get into the system or the situation and you don't want that >> pink over blue. It's good for cocaine. >> If that wasn't busted up, I'd say that probably be about equity. >> Close to it. You want to mix it over and start. >> Um, do you have a one issue? >> No, just notate when I count. >> Let's separate them. >> All right, sir. You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say will can and will be used against you to the court of law. You have the right to talk to a lawyer and have him or her present while you're being questioned. If you cannot afford to hire one, won't be appointed to represent you before any questioning if you wish. You can decide at any time to exercise these rights and not answer any questions or make any statements. Do you understand each of your rights? >> Yes, sir. >> Do you want to speak with me? >> Nope. You're shaking your head no. I just need a yes or no. >> I mean, no, sir. >> No. Okay. I can respect it. It is what it is. So, you are going to be placed under arrest for everything that I found in the car. Okay. >> What was it? >> Well, you don't want to talk, so we're not going to talk about it. So, I'm just going to say you're going to be placed under arrest and then your your attorney can get the discovery and all the formal charges will be read to you. >> Okay. >> All right. You going to still make the call from let her know that I'm locked up in jail? >> What's her phone? >> So, she won't be stuck. It's in the in that it's up on the wife. >> Here's an interesting point about reading Miranda at this point. Now, if he says no, he does not want to talk. That really rules out the ability to get the narcotics detective down to speak to him. Now, there is [clears throat] a time frame that you can start to speak to them again. But again, the Miranda would have to be read and to the legal people, jump in the comments section and explain that time frame because it matters. And sometimes you'll see narcotics detectors will say, "Don't Mirandaize if you have that person. I'll come down and I'll talk to them and they'll read the Miranda." So, these are a lot of more advanced tactics in policing, but it's interesting stuff to know because these kind of investigations are really, really interesting. >> I can't go into your phone. I'm not going to go into your phone because either you gave it to me or >> I mean, I don't know it. >> I'm not going to go into your phone. That's a that's an invasion of privacy. I'm not going to do that to you. Well, can I go out in front of you right here? I just >> off my deputy would be a different story. >> That's true. But she work at the Waw Wa where she served your deputies a lot. >> I don't we don't go out of county. So, Oxburg is not it. We don't go there. I'm just I'm being honest with you. I would make the phone call if you know the number. If you don't know the number, I can't do it for you. >> So, this is a really interesting one. Again, I started off with take care of the misdemeanor, the car stop, and the felonies take care of themselves because you get that misdemeanor and the other doors open up cuz felonies speak loudly. Just like this car. This guy has all of this stuff in his car and he drives the car that's going to draw the most attention to him. Makes absolutely no sense to me and that's why he's in the back of a police car. Couple of things I like to talk about. The corporal rank. That's one rank above the entry- level police officer in most places and one rank below the sergeant in most departments that have the corporal rank. These are senior patrolman and you can see the efficiency and how they handle the situations. If you have a corporal on this scene, it's likely a person who really understands patrol procedures. However, I am somewhat giving constructive criticism about reaching inside the vehicle. And again, I'm being 100% transparent that I didn't see the entire video, but I'd like officers to think very, very closely about whether they want to reach inside of a vehicle [music] that's taking off. Again, comment in the comment section your thoughts about that. If you like this kind of content, like the video, subscribe to the channel, share it with someone who else likes police content. And again, the marijuana laws are ever evolving around the country. Know them if you're a person that smokes. I do not, and I wouldn't let a person in my car that uses because I don't want to incur any of those challenges.
