So, if you want to continue to refuse, I will rip you both of you out of the car. >> You go to jail. You can film me all you want. Step out of the car. >> Brian, put your hand on your back. TASER. TASER. GET BACK. Get back. >> Try it. Try it. Try it again. Oh, I knew he was going to run. I didn't think he was going to be dumb enough to pull a gun. >> I worked the graveyard shift for many years of my career. And we always used to say nothing good happens after 2 a.m. because a lot of criminals go out and caper at those times. And most of those car stops are more dangerous than car stops during the daylight hours for a lot of different reasons. Most of the time they end up resolving fairly easily, but sometimes you encounter multiple people inside of a vehicle and some of those stops can turn potentially deadly. This is one of those. I'll be at Harbor and 41. Harbor 41 will be floor tag link David John Mary 41 DJ M4 wants you to go back to a blockage. >> So I just want to mention something really quickly. When you see an officer still talking on the radio and the cars are stopped and the officer gets out of the vehicle, there's a school of thought from a tactical perspective that being inside of the vehicle right at the initial stop is incredibly dangerous because if the person turns and engages you and you're inside of the car, you're stuck and you can't get out. So that's why sometimes you'll see officers are still on the move. They're going to be talking, opening that door, and getting out of the vehicle. [screaming] >> Hi. >> Hi. How are you? Good. How about yourself? Good. I mean, all right. >> All right. So, reason why I pulled you over the gas station as you're coming out. There's two uh there's there's the access road. >> Okay. >> The white line. You have to stop that. Stop before that. There's one right here as you come in the harbor, right? >> As well. You got to stop before that. Okay. >> I thought I did. My fault. >> You did. Okay. Is there any one behind here? Just make sure the windows are turned. Can you roll it down for so safety? All right. Thank you. All right. Is uh Are you living in Fort Myers, ma'am? >> Yes. >> All right. All right. You have Is this a rental car or something? >> Yes, it is. >> How you doing? Good. >> You guys from around here? >> Are you from around here? >> I'm not. I'm from Florida. >> Okay, I got you. >> That's the one thing that they gave me. >> Okay. >> Okay. Some things I want to talk about on this stop. The officer mentioned the stop bar. Most people don't realize, but there's like a white bar in front of a stop sign and a red light. And if you pass that, even if you stop, it's a violation. In the statute, usually says position and method of the stop. So technically, even if you stop and you cross that bar, you have driven past the point where it's legal, which leads me to believe that it might be a ren type of stop, when a pretextual stop. A graveyard officers conduct these all time. They're super controversial, but they're 100% legit. US versus Ren is simply that if the officer subjective reason that he wants to stop the car, doesn't matter as long as they have a legitimate stop and passing that stop bar is legitimate. The challenge that I'm seeing from this position is that we have the dominant hand of the officer continually being occupied by the flashlight and the paperwork in the other hand. And sometimes you have to do that. You have too many things that you have to deal with and manipulate. I explained to and showed you before. Basically, if you have the flashlight, you can always tuck the flashlight underneath your arm if necessary. But sometimes you do have to have two items in your hand. And if that's the case, you can ask the person to keep their hands on the steering wheel, control the situation. You can be polite, kind, lethal, and tactical all at the same time. And occupying that dominant gun hand is going to be a challenge if you don't control the hands of the person. You constantly have to make a threat assessment of what's going on inside the vehicle. >> You have your ID on you, too, sir? >> Yeah. >> All right. Can I get it? >> No, >> huh? >> No, I'm good. I mean, I do want no reason. It's a definitely the male suspect in there. >> Yeah, that's not providing his any ID. Does he have a seat bel? Huh? >> He does an a-hole. >> Oh Man named Amy Lee. She was shaking like shaking. >> I'm going to see if I can do some quick research. Find identify him. >> Be a white female floral last name is uh Lee. Common spelling. First name is Amy. Common spelling. It'll be >> That's a rental, right? >> That's a rental. Yeah. >> She needs to give you the rental agreement. She needs to be on it as a driver. >> And who rented this car? You? >> No, my brother. Is it one? >> Where's the rental agreement at? Are you the driver of the rental car? >> Yes, there's multiple drivers, but I don't know. >> Okay. >> This is a really good shot to see the benefits of the B-pillar. We noticed that the passenger said he didn't want to give his ID. He's within his legal right to do that because he has a seatelt on. He says, "No, then no." But we're 3:00 in the morning. The officers obviously have some concerns about the people inside of the vehicle. If we elect to interact at this position, the tactical advantage is at best a draw behind the B-pillar provides that protection. And that B-pillar, I'm going to circle it for you where it is. If you stand back there, it takes so much for a person to have to turn around and you can still see everything you need to see. You can lean back and forth if necessary. >> That's a messy bottle for a second. >> Absolutely. You're not doing over. >> Just don't know where you put it. And that's all they both >> there's that. I don't know. >> Is that their agreement? >> I I don't know what this is. >> What uh what was given to you when you ran this car? >> That's it. >> Huh? >> Probably has it on. >> Um there's nothing in the box. >> Where did you rent it from? >> Where did you rent it from? >> He rented it from Herz. >> Okay. Who's he? Oh, >> my brother. He He's the one who rented it. >> What's your brother's name? What? >> Cuz you got to have the rental agreement obviously. Okay. When you rent the car, so he probably has it on his phone. I don't know. >> You should have it with you. >> I I I I'm sorry. I apologize. I don't I thought that that's what that was. >> Okay. Let's talk about rental agreements. And there are some statues that address rental agreements. And as officers, we have to be incredibly careful that we don't cross a line when it comes to this aspect of the investigation. There's a Supreme Court case, Bird versus US. It was a 90 slam dunk that if a person is inside of a rental car, you can't locate the rental agreement. They do not lose their fourth amendment benefit of unlawful searches and seizures. So Bird is on the side of the fact, okay, no rental agreement, they still have Fourth Amendment privileges. You can't just go and start searching and doing whatever you want to do inside the vehicle. So that's a Supreme Court ruling that's incredibly important. But if a person is inside of a rental vehicle, there are local statutes that are very clear about being able to contact the rental office and see if the person is legitimately in possession of the vehicle. chime in if you have other information in your jurisdiction. For the most part, that's kind of how it goes. And that bird case, BY RD, is a Supreme Court ruling, so that's national. >> What is this name right here? What is this number here? Because >> my year of birth. >> Okay. I could not read that. >> Yeah, it's 85. >> What's uh what's your spell your brother's name for me? >> Yes. >> Middle initial? >> I don't know. >> Do you know his date of birth? >> No, I don't know his date of birth. >> Okay. because he's the renter of the vehicle. Jesus Christ. Hey, you can call Herz. We can hold the car until we say that she can drive. >> Yeah, that's what I'm saying. >> I'm trying to find her. >> Or you can step off the vehicle, too. >> So, you want to be required to be carried >> on a rental car. She has to have the rental agreement. >> Okay. And if she's not listed, then >> Well, I'm sure he's going to give us a hard time for having him get out of the car. >> Well, if he doesn't want to get out of the car, then uh we have ways to fix that. >> All right, we're going to have both of you guys step out of the car. >> Why? >> Because I told you to. >> No, we didn't do nothing wrong. Why are you going to get out of the car for? >> Because I told you to. >> That's not That's not >> Pennsylvania versus Mims. You want to try that? >> Say it again. >> Pennsylvania versus Mims. I can ask anybody to get out of the car for any reason. for any reason. >> So if you want to continue to refuse, I will rip you both of you out of the car and you can both go to jail for obstruction. >> I'm not trying. >> So for any reason, you can just >> Absolutely. >> Really? >> Absolutely. >> We're only going to ask one time. Okay. If we have to say it more than once, you go to jail. You can film me all you want. Step out of the car. >> I want to stop this really quickly. Okay. Pennsylvania versus Mims. This is quoted many, many times. Harry Mims is the guy's name if you want to research the case. Very, very interesting. In fact, that is for the driver. To be clear, there is a Supreme Court ruling for the passengers of the vehicle. And that's Marilyn versus Wilson. So when we quote case law, it's important to make sure that we're going to quote it that we give it to the people, right? Passengers. Marilyn versus Wilson. The driver. Pennsylvania versus Mims. >> Step to the back. Thank you very much. Appreciate that. You didn't do anything. I'm asking you to step out of the car so we can investigate on who's >> No, that's fine. I can call if I get a phone. >> Can I get a phone? >> Don't walk away. >> Head over here. Okay. >> Take it easy. >> You're not free to go. >> I'm saying, of course. Stop walking around, >> ma'am. Just so you understand something, when you drive a rental car, you have to have the rental agreement with you. >> I thought that was in there. I'm sorry. >> Excuse me a second. Let me finish. >> You have to have a rental agreement with you. Okay. Because that rental agreement shows that you are the rightful >> reenter of that vehicle. Or if you're not the one that rented it, you're one of the approved driver. >> Right. No. >> When we get people out of the car, the most tactically advantageous practice is one at a time. You only have to focus on one person, one thing in a static vehicle. Then if we have a contact officer and cover officer or officers, then it becomes incredibly clean, methodical, and everything is observed. And then if you have one compliant person and one non-compliant person, get the compliant person out first and then deal with the non-compliant person that's inside of the vehicle still cuz they're still immobilized inside of the vehicle. >> You're supposed to require it. You have to have that with you. >> I'm I'm so sorry. I thought it was in there. I apologize. That's why you guys are out of the car now because as far as we can tell right now, we don't know if you guys are supposed to be in the car. >> Can I get him on the phone? >> Okay. >> Yes, that's fine. Can I >> picture on the same page? That's all. >> Any anybody can Where's your phone at? >> Yeah, you can get him on the phone. We're also going to call Herz to confirm it. >> That's fine. >> If he can if he has a like a picture or maybe an email, that would that would probably help. >> Do you have uh the Herz law enforcement line? I do not try to guy. >> No, I don't see the tattoo. I'm just trying to find the phone number for her. It's the law enforcement 800 number or something to call. >> I gave him the registration. >> They have a special one for law enforcement for people that are working. They work 24 hours just to answer those calls. >> I want to stop right here for a second. Just take a look at the positioning. The officers are facing these bright lights that we intentionally cast [music] upon a vehicle. Our night vision. I constantly mention night vision. I work nights many, many, many years. We want to protect our night vision much as possible. Flip this around the other way and have the driver and the other person stand in front of the vehicle and we stand behind with our back to our light. There are a lot of advantages to that positioning as opposed to looking at our lights. >> You get pulled over for >> huh? What you get pulled over for? >> I think you said it was for failure to stop at a stop sign behind the stop bar. >> He's not Hey, why is he asking questions? He doesn't want to talk to us if he's not the driver, so why doesn't it matter? >> Right. >> Okay then. So, >> you want to play off game, too? >> Hello. >> Hey, the cops have us pulled over here. They need to know where the rental agreement is. >> I'll put it in the door. >> The little piece of paper? >> Yeah. >> He said that's what the rental agreement is is what I showed him. >> You didn't do anything on the email. >> He said anything in the email. I said the receipt. >> He has emails. >> Haven't sent them over to you. You want me to send them to you here? >> Just to your phone? >> Send me my Send them to my to my phone. >> Send them to your phone. >> Yeah, >> I can do that. All right. Well, >> just uh I guess uh screenshot it and send it. >> Okay. All right. >> Okay. >> All right. Fine. >> You You got it. >> Got it. He's sending it over right now. >> Okay. I have a question and it's a legal question. Out of every 10 emails I get, like eight or nine of them are couples that watch together. So, I'm going to ask a question. And if you're couples, I want you to see if you get this answer correctly. The passenger had a seat belt on and I already told you that the officers were lawfully able to ask him to step out of the vehicle. Marilyn versus Wilson. Here's the question. Can he just walk away right now since he hasn't committed any crime? Can he just walk away? I give you a couple seconds to answer it. Okay, so now I'm going to give you the answer as I know it. And please, Legal Eagles, chime in. Brenland versus California says that all of the people that are in the car stop are seized and considered seized during the stop. So, no, he cannot walk away. And if you said yes, he can, you're likely wrong. And if you want to challenge it, check out Brenlin versus California. It's very, very interesting case. The other point that I'd like to make, and I'm not going to ask it as a question, is that the officer can also conduct a pat down if they have reasonable belief that the person might potentially carrying a weapon. and looking at this guy to me Arizona versus Johnson. That was a 90 ruling that under circumstances we can conduct a pat down on this person even though they have not committed a crime because pat downs are for safety. >> Sorry, sir. >> No, no, it's it's not your fault. I mean, you just may not have known. We just have to verify. >> No, that's fine. I I didn't know that it wasn't in there. He said that they gave that little piece of paper that >> Yeah. Sometimes they give you like a little credit card receipt or something looks like a a regular sheet. kind of like a little piece like >> a thing that you put on a window, you know, not long, but you know, >> but it that usually has like the renter and who else is supposed to be >> on it and everything else. I don't know what else it it needed to have. >> Well, it it's also supposed to have if anybody else is driving the car besides him, they have to be an approved um driver. >> Well, I don't think I'm approved driver. Go ahead. >> I'm just being honest, you know. I'm not I I didn't know that either. Ryan, put your hand behind your back. >> Put your hand behind. TASER. TASER. GET BACK. GET BACK. >> I got him. >> Try it. TRY IT. TRY IT AGAIN. >> CENTRAL, stand by. He just tried to run on us. Sony's been tased. He tried to pull a gun. >> You got to keep your hands UP AND DON'T MOVE. YOU UNDERSTAND ME? >> STAY OVER THERE. >> I'm not doing nothing. Listen, I'm not doing nothing. >> Put your hands on that hood. >> Both of them now. >> YOU LIFT THEM OFF that head, we're gonna have a problem. >> You're going for a gun. THE HELL IS YOUR PROBLEM? >> YEAH, BRIAN, get up. Get your ass up. >> Yeah. Can't get up. >> Yeah. That's what you get. Try to throw put a gun on us. Where's the gun at? >> I got it. It's on my foot. >> All right. Get up. >> Central. Who's in custody? You're in clear traffic. >> In custody, that was 0 to 100 in a matter of seconds. I mean, it happened so fast. And in policing, these kinds of things happen just like that. One minute you're just talking to someone and the next minute they're going for a sidearm. When I see situations like this, and having been in situations like this, I always think about the degree of control that I had or that the officers have with the subject. Young aspiring officers, this is an ideal stop to watch about control and things that you notice that end up turning into things. You hear me constantly talk about pat downs, being methodical about them, doing the same way every time, and getting all the parts of the body. What I notic is if you look at this guy, he keeps reaching around towards this one pocket. The officer caught it. He said, "Don't put your hand inside of your pocket." But under the circumstances, if that's our concern, do we have enough to articulate a pat down? And in my opinion, it's very clear that we could pat this guy down. We are night. No rental agreement. The guy refuses to identify himself. He has these baggy pants, his baggy shirt, and he keeps reaching for this pocket. A pat down under this circumstance to me would be 100% reasonable and prudent. And the results are clear. He had a sidearm on him. And then if we look at this the manner of control that we had of where the subjects were standing, this like semiircle with crossfire of this person who we still have not identified. And the officers obviously had some concern about I mean 3:00 in the morning he doesn't want to identify himself. He seems like his behavior and mannerisms seem to be incredibly evasive. When we look at this there's important sequence of events. So, what it appears is, and we can't hear it, but dispatch calls an officer and then she transmits and the officers hear what she has to say. And what I'm guessing is that that they figured out who he is and they decide that they're going to take him into custody for whatever reason. It looks like the plan was one of those things that happens and it's one of those rapidly evolving things that there's not necessarily a pre-plan. They go to take him into custody, the fight is on, and then he's able to go for the sidearm. Now, here's what's interesting is that the officer's decision was that when he starts to fight is to go to taser, which could be a prudent move under the circumstances, but it's never going to be taser to gun. So, when you see these kinds of situations, a person that's not patted down, this is clear that through training and experience, you can see that a person can potentially go for a firearm when you're on a much lower level of force because it's not going to be taser to sidearm. It's going to be sidearm to sidearm. safest positioning under the circumstances. Knees on the buddy bumper or have them sit down and pat them down. If you can articulate a pat down on a person, you're not going to pat down a person wearing a bathing suit. With these clothing, under the circumstances, a pat down again is completely prudent. Another point, the officer immediately went to tell dispatch the guy pulled a gun on us and he was given some other radio traffic before the guy was actually handcuffed. And again, this is just constructive adrenaline makes us do things and I've done the same exact thing before. radio discipline under the circumstances and making sure we get the person in custody and then transmitting the radio traffic that's necessary or pertinent or needed once we have them in custody completely. Again, I'm not there and having a firearm pulled on you is definitely an extremely scary situation, especially if you're on taser and that person goes for the firearm. This is merely constructive to help officers in the future. And a way to get people sit down and say, "Listen, you know what? Have a sit on the side. I mean, all the people are driving by. I don't want all the people looking at you while you're stopping in front of the police car. Just do a favor. Have a seat right here on the curb." Most of the time you'll get people to absolutely sit down and you have a much better tactical advantage and then the cover officer stands behind them. You have two people sitting down on the curb, cover officer standing behind them, contact officer continues to interact with them. Much better tactical advantage, especially if the person you deal with is a lot larger than you cuz they have to stand up and you can interpret that standing up as an act of aggression because if you have them sit down and they're standing up, there's likely a reason they're standing up. >> Why would I throw a gun on you? Hold on. >> Dude, you're lucky to get >> Okay. WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU? YOU GOT IT IN YOUR HAND. YOU'RE LUCKY YOU'RE NOT RIGHT NOW. >> WHAT? NOTHING. >> WHAT are you trying to do with it? >> Come on. Let me >> Huh? >> What did you do that? Cuz I know there's on you. >> I want to see whatever. >> Send it to my dad. >> Get up. Please get up. Brian, >> don't know why they're calling in that. >> They got they put the handcuffs on me now. I don't even know what I'm getting. >> Just relax for sit on the bumper. Just relax. >> I'm relaxed. I didn't know what was going on. >> You think we're going to find who you are, Brian? >> Yeah. >> Yeah. You were buddy. >> You going to help your boyfriend? >> Your ass is done. Come on. >> His name is Jr. >> His name is Brian Houston. That's what his name is. >> I know it is. >> I'm sorry. >> Yeah. Troy, you're trying to use the gun, huh? You're lucky or not. You're lucky we didn't you >> are lucky. >> Damn it. >> Stop. >> I tried to be >> Yeah. No. You're trying No, you're trying to be like an >> No, I'm not. I'm trying to turn for you so you can see make it easier for you. >> Now you're being an You ain't think we're going to find anything else. >> Way past that. >> Yeah. >> Yeah. >> Are you a felon? >> Oh, yeah. Yeah. Oh, you're going to prison, sir. Welcome. Go. You're going back to the That's where you're going. >> So, you know, you got multiple wards, Brian. Stealing, too. Know what you did. >> What are they talking about? >> You You put me in a jam. >> Sorry. >> They put you I mean, it just didn't take >> Yeah, I guess. >> I could tell, too. >> I ain't got in trouble. I don't do nothing. I've been straight and narrow for a minute. >> You're stupid for that, man. What? >> Why try for the gun? Who's Brown? That's his name. >> Juan, you still on the phone? >> Yeah. >> Okay. What is uh So, you're the renter here, right? >> Yeah. >> Okay. What's your middle initial? >> That was the next option. >> I need to know all your to give the car to your sister. >> Matter of opinion. >> Yeah. A matter of opinion. Yeah. >> Middle initial. putting a gun out on a cop. Yeah. >> D is in dog. >> Stupid. >> No. Eddie. >> He as Eddie. Okay. Your uh date of birth? >> You I knew you were going to resist. I had a feeling you were going to do that. >> You got a What's your phone number here? >> I had a feeling he was going to do that. I told you. Oh, I knew he was going to run. I didn't think he was going to be dumb enough to pull a gun. >> Very interesting training moment here. Think about it. All the officers had a feeling something was wrong. Maybe he was going to run. Maybe he was going to But none of them thought that he was stupid enough to pull a gun. people are stupid enough to pull a gun. So when I hear officers say this, and this has happened to me too under the circumstances, they're saying that he's lucky. If you believe in luck, then the officers are as well. So why don't we just eliminate luck out of the whole equation and why don't we just rely on the pat downs and the tactics so that we don't have to rely upon luck because this could have been really, really bad for a lot of people. I'm so happy that the officers are safe. But again, eliminate luck and let's make sure that we just do the pat downs. >> This pull a gun on you. >> Yeah. Look at him die. >> He tried to run. He came. He He He tried to run. He gets over there. He's got it in his hand and he's trying to it. >> I tased him like eight times, but >> ATFbody else. >> Oh, yeah. He didn't want to give us his name. He's playing that game, so I figured out who he was. >> You know how to clear these Celtics? >> Oh, ATF. Well, you're done. I knew he was going to do it. I just had a feeling he was going to run. >> I saw him reach behind his back. >> I would have shoot the pop back. We'll pop him. >> Think he's funny. >> No. No. He like he's has it in his hand and he's like this. Tas him. He gets on the ground. He still got it. And Dane's going gun. >> Once I'm done searching the car to make sure there's no other weapons in there, then you'll be uh taken out of handcuffs. Is there anything on you? No, I have cigarettes, a couple dollars. >> Would you mind if we had a female search you come over here and search you? That's fine. >> I have nothing on me. >> Okay. >> Can you possibly pick that up? >> I can. >> You have anything on you? >> No, I have cigarettes. >> Why were you shaking when I when we stopped you? You were shaking like this. Why you so nervous? >> I'm not nervous. >> You were? >> No, I wasn't nervous at all. I I seen you come out. I go, what did I I do? And I was like, I didn't do anything. So, I just kept going. You know, I didn't know I didn't stop there. I thought I did, though. I know you didn't. Trust me. >> No, no disrespect. I thought I did stop coming out of 7-Eleven. >> So, do you see that white line? >> Uh, come in the store and as obviously as you're making a right turn onto harbor, are you familiar with this area? >> No, not at all. >> Okay. Hey, Sarge. >> Yeah. >> Did he get you what's going on? >> Yeah. >> Okay. I ask you what's in your car. Would it endangered me? >> No, not really. >> I'm not being funny. I just >> I'm not being funny either. I promise I'm not being he had a gun on him. I didn't know these things, you know. I don't know. >> Well, caught him by surprise. Clearly, he was trying to hurt one of us. >> You think that's You think we take that lightly? Do you want someone to hurt you? >> No, absolutely not. >> You want to go You want to go home to your family, too, right? >> Yes. We're doing this job and >> I want to go home just like my family, too. >> I >> clearly he was pulling it out to hurt one of us and he got he threw it out. >> Idiot man. Is that his phone? >> It's mine. >> It's recording acting like we were doing something wrong. >> Um, can you pull it back down here? My brother's on there. >> Oh, he's still on the phone. >> He's still on there. Oh, sorry, man. >> No, >> he said he was sorry. >> I didn't know he was on the phone. >> Well, that's not him. So, clearly this ID is not him. So, that does not look like him. >> I never really looked at it. >> Oh, >> he's never had it out like that. You know, he keeps the stuff to himself. >> Stand by here for me. Okay. >> All right. You just detain right now. Okay. >> Yes, sir. based on everything we got going on. Obviously, >> obviously, sorry it's a little hectic. So, if we everyone yelling because safety is important. >> No, absolutely. >> No one's trying to get hurt. >> No, I could at the end of the day. >> Yeah, absolutely. >> I just I didn't know >> for him. That was very stupid. >> I didn't know any of this was >> that was very stupid and he put you in a bad situation. It's already on. >> I'm just getting >> What are you doing? >> My leg is jammed. >> Huh? >> My leg is jammed in. Yeah. I'm trying to move. I can't. >> These things are way too tight, man. >> Oh, they're not tight. When you try to do that, we put cuss and we can So, you're not tight. >> I understand that. But when you act like that, I'm not trying to be rude to you, bud. >> All right. Watch your legs, bud. Put your legs. All right. >> All right. Just female deputy coming right here. Come over here, please. >> Just tell your brother. They'll be back. >> I'll be back. I'm getting searched. >> It's all right. >> I have um cigarettes in my pocket. I have a lighter and I have um I have paper. >> Okay, that's it. Nothing's going to poke me. No. No. Absolutely not. >> Is it stolen or not? >> Huh? Is it stolen? Actually, >> they said no record. >> Does that something in Virginia, too? He was saying that he's got ATF warrants and all sorts of crap. I didn't get that far in the in the >> Holy crap. He's done. [snorts] >> That's why he That's why I think he was trying to make a >> That's true. >> Yeah, probably. >> That's clearly >> he's lucky he didn't get >> That's why he said back up. I was like, "You do your thing." And >> well, I at the time he didn't have his hand. He was trying to reach. >> I grabbed one of his hand and he was trying to me and Dan had him. >> When you guys had him over here and he rolled, then I saw it and Dane called. He's like, "Gun, gun, gun." And he threw it towards you. >> No, he still had it in his hand. And when you got when we had him on the ground, he was trying to rack it and then when we put him on the ground, it came out of his hand. >> Again, when other officers show up to your stop, they're going to make the assumption that you conducted a methodical pat down on the person. So, you can never overstate the importance of conducting pat downs. This video clearly shows you why. >> You don't have anything inside your shoe, right, Amy? >> No. I can take him off if you like. >> Anything in you? >> In me? >> Yes. >> No. >> People say that all the time. I'm not Listen, when I said I'm not trying to be funny, okay? >> No, no, I promise. I mean, I I don't know how to show you that there's nothing in there. >> I mean, I know you don't. I'm just saying this. People say that all the time. >> No, I have nothing. I promise I have nothing. Literally, I had I told that told him what I had in my pockets was cigarette lighter paperwork. That's all I have. >> Okay. >> Literally. >> What about the car then? >> Nothing. Nothing's in the car cuz it's mine. I don't That bag is his. >> Huh? >> The bag that he just brought out was his. >> Okay. Did he Where did he come? Where did he get it from? >> He brought it from his place. >> Live here or where did you live? What place? >> He uh took an Uber to me. Um >> Where do you live at? >> Uh right now I'm staying with my brother in um >> Florida. Okay. >> Okay. All right. Stand by. Okay. >> Sure. >> Can I step on the sidewalk? >> What we done? You done searching the car yet? >> I didn't search the drivers part of it, but >> Yeah. No, just where he was. You said there's nothing in the car, right? Yeah. >> Do you mind if I take a look? >> No. Go ahead. >> All right. All right. Here's here's just I'm putting this back in here. Okay. The jacket portion. All right. >> Okay. I want to make note of something that's incredibly important. The officer said, "Do you mind if I take a look?" Now, if we are in a search challenge, and I'm not going to go into the specifics of this. This video is edited. But when we say, "Do you mind if I take a look?" Do you mean that you want to search the car? Because person say, "I just thought you wanted to look inside the windows. I didn't know that you wanted to search my vehicle." So, it's important the verbiage that we use. defense attorneys who are watching are going to 100% attack you something like this if that's what you utilize to get inside the vehicle. And I'm not speaking specifically to this, but it was important because I got to hear verbiage that is clear that when you have training about wanting the ability to enter a vehicle for a search, you want to say, "Can I take a look?" You want to be very specific. May I search a vehicle? It's okay to search. >> Amy, is this your stuff here? This bag? >> No, that's his. >> Everything in there is his is what you're saying. Get under. I promise everything is fine. >> Okay. All right. Let me read Let me read this to you real quick. I'm just going to ask you some questions. Being that you're in our detention, I have to I have to read this to you. Okay. Sorry for the plastic bag. I know it looks unprofessional, but All right. >> You have the right to remain silent. >> I'm going to read it to you. >> Am I getting arrested? >> No. You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can be used against you in court. You have the right to talk to a lawyer for advice before you ask before [clears throat] we ask you any questions to have him or her with you during questioning. If you cannot afford a lawyer, one will be appointed to you before questioning if you wish. If you decide to answer questions without a a lawyer present, you will still have the right to stop answering at any time. You will also have the right to stop answering any time until you talk to a lawyer. Do you understand these rights? >> Okay. With these rights, are you uh with these rights in mind, are you willing to talk to me? >> I can tell you what I know. >> Is that a [clears throat] yes? >> Yes. >> Okay. So, this is really good because we got a visual of the female and we're going to hear the officer asking questions. So, if you're watching this and you're interested in understanding body language to see if a person's being deceptive, I've asked you to do this in videos before. It's kind of fun to watch the signs of deception of a person, whether you believe them or you don't believe them. I don't know if she's going to be truthful, but I can tell you if I watch her, I can tell you things that for me that I would say would be deceptive if she does any of those behaviors. Fun to watch. >> Okay. So, um I'm Deputy Ball Singer with the Charlotte County Sheriff's Office. Person being interviewed, state your name and date of birth. >> Amy Lee. >> Okay. Okay. Are you under the influence of any >> No. >> Do you know the meaning of perjury? >> Huh? >> Do you know the meaning of perjury? >> Perjury? >> Yes. >> No. >> Okay. So, perjury can be committed by telling lies or omitting or leaving out information while under oath. >> Perjury is a crime in the state of Florida. Do you understand what I explained to you? >> Gotcha. >> Okay. Do you swear to affirm the statement you're about to give is the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth? >> Yes. >> Okay, cool. Um, so everything in that bag, the money, >> he has money. I'm not I'm not being funny. >> Okay. The money. There's uh some it looks like law enforcement badges or fake badges in there. You had no idea about that. Okay. Where were you at on Saturday by chance >> or Sunday morning? At >> the at my brother's house. >> Your brother's house. Is it the one that rented the car? >> Yes. >> Okay. >> When did he rent that car? >> A couple days ago that I know of. >> That you know of? Okay. What about the car before that? >> I I don't know when he rented that one. I know. He just changed that one to that one. Um >> Buick, I think. >> I'm not I'm not sure. I'm not I'm not sure. >> What color was it? >> White. >> No, >> the one before this. Yeah, I think it was white. Yes. >> Just to let you know, just just so you know, I know all the answers already. >> I know. I don't know. I I I don't know what the color of the card was before that. >> I don't I I don't know. Um because I was I wasn't in that car like that. I only drove this one. >> Well, I mean you you'd be able to tell the difference between white, black, blue, red, orange. >> But I I don't >> I think I think unless you're color blind. >> I didn't see him between that car and him getting [clears throat] this one though. >> When was the last time you saw him? >> Like when I see my brother, it was like a day. He uh has an apartment over here on uh he had the place in Cape that he stays at and then he has an apartment right here on uh Lester. So he goes over here. He's a VA guy. >> Lester >> Lester L. >> Where's that at? >> Right here behind uh the deal. >> Is it over there? Oh, so okay. >> I think that's Vic. Is it the Vix Street apartments >> in there? Yeah. Yeah. Okay. >> He has an apartment over there. He just is starting to get it from the VA. He's just starting to get stuff. >> Okay. I got you. So he So he's got an apartment on Vic Street. >> Yeah, he was just getting it. I don't know. >> But you don't know what he was driving beforehand? >> No, like he has a Honda uh Civic that I've been driving. >> Okay. >> And if I needed to go anywhere, I would take him and we went he went down to the airport and got that one. >> Okay. >> That's Well, what's the reason for him [clears throat] driving the the rental cars? >> Because I have the Honda. >> You you're driving the Honda. You're driving the Kia today. >> Well, today I was cuz I used it because I'm out of gas and I said, "Well, I can run it to the gas station." But where we're at, Pig Gorda, is a little far and I'm scared without him following me that. And he said he wanted to take a shower. I said, "Okay." >> Okay. Where were you staying at with with um to be driving the the Kia >> in >> Pontagora? Is it Pontiga? >> Pontagora. Punaga. It doesn't matter.

Taller like he's tall like Jr. Um a little chunkier. >> You guys um >> should have a picture of him through the rental, right? I don't know. >> Well, I don't know. Um, like I said, he's tall. He's about tall as you maybe. >> Okay. >> Okay. He's baldheaded. He's, like I said, he's Cuban and black. Um, brown eyes. >> Okay. >> Did he lend the car to to um this guy here? >> You say J.R., but that's not his name. We already established that. >> He did. If he did, he didn't tell me. >> Okay. >> Me and him had just started talking like texting back and forth and just stuff like that. >> Well, I mean, you guys have a history in 2024. >> No, I do not. Brian Houston. The Brian Houston I know is not that man. >> You said Brian Houston that messed me up. >> It's cuz that's him. >> That's not the guy that uh turned me in.

The guy that I got in trouble with. >> No, I'm not saying he got arrested with you. I'm saying he was with you while you got arrested. >> He wasn't though. I never got arrested with anybody. I was by myself. >> Oh, well, he must have been the one that turned you in cuz his name was on the report. >> You realize that's how we were identified, right? Like we we figured things out, right? >> That's fine. But that's not the same guy. [clears throat] >> Okay. So So you're you're you're saying you weren't with them or with him on Sunday.

Like, this is the first time that me and him has been. >> So, as far as that bag that you're you're saying that is all his. >> I he brought that bag with him. >> Okay. What were you guys doing tonight? I came over here to get a card because the 7-Eleven over there in Baghora don't do Visa cards and I like to put my money on cards because I like the hard rock. I'm not going to lie. Okay. >> So, that's what I did. >> Racetrack didn't do it either. >> No, they won't do it over there at 10:00. So, I just thought I'd come up and exit and >> Okay. >> You know, go here. >> Yeah. >> Cuz >> So, you guys were just gas station hopping trying to get cards, a visa card >> and and maybe lottery tickets or lottery tickets, his or yours? >> His the uh >> Okay, I guess we got to take those too for safekeeping. a bunch of rods here cuz we had to put for safety. >> Yeah. >> Yeah. There those are not mine. >> I don't have money like that. I took my little bit that I did have on that cart. >> Well, I'm going to take you out of handcuffs now. I appreciate you talking to me. Sounds like uh you either [clears throat] truly don't have any idea what's been going on or >> what's going on. >> Well, [clears throat] apparently you didn't know his own his name. >> No, he >> cuz that's cuz you know a different maybe We just started talking. >> You just met him? >> We just started talking. Uh went out to dinner one time. He came by. >> You sure about that? >> Yes. The guy in Houston that you have on my record is not this man. Can I put my shoe on? >> Yeah. >> What's your >> Please do. >> What's your phone number for you? >> Thank you for not running, by the way. That That was awesome. >> Huh? >> Well, when someone pulls out a gun, people usually do run. >> I was I was freaked out cuz I knew what was going No, I'm I'm just saying thank you for not running cuz that would have been a whole another issue. >> 929 >> Mhm. >> 674 >> 674 >> 2319 >> 2319 >> She says she had no idea about anything. >> She says that she was at her brother's house in Pontagora >> her brother's apartment in Pontagorta. >> They she hadn't seen him till Monday and that he definitely has an apartment on Vic Street. So that's probably the other guy. E R >> She says that he's black Cuban >> street. That's where we're standing right now in Gordo. >> So you're saying that you >> finish your warning? Actually, I'm going to finish your warning. >> I >> just met him. >> Okay. >> A couple weeks ago. >> Okay. That That's when I met him. >> What do you know him as? His name Jr. >> Jr. That's it. Just JR. >> Yes. >> And you've never seen him before? >> No. And if we tell you his name is Brian. >> When you said Brian, I looked at you. I was like, "Who the hell is that?" Because I thought you guys were referencing to me from my old case. >> Well, that's actually what I want to ask you is what I find very odd. >> It's not him, though. >> That there is a case >> in 2023 >> that you have several charges on. >> Yeah. But he was another there was a guy >> that's told on me that wasn't him. I I didn't I didn't dig into it. I don't know, but there's >> there's a Brian Houston and a Dana Whitaker. They both >> There's a Brian Houston. They both had told on me, but the uh Dana was Brian's ex-girlfriend, but that's not him. >> That man there is this is the first time I met him two weeks ago. >> Have you met this Brian guy? >> Yeah, I met the other Brian guy. He was skinny, tall, uh and I told the detective that then. >> You don't think he might have gained weight and looks a little different? >> Not in 3 years, right? >> No, he has an accent. The Brian Houston that I got in trouble with in Lee County is not that man. And I didn't even get in trouble with him. His girlfriend told on me because she thought that we were messing around and I wasn't. >> His the photo that I have hold up for that gentleman. It's him. >> He never got arrested with me. The other guy did get arrested. >> I don't know if he got arrested. Um I don't know if he got arrested. I didn't read into your case. I just was looking at >> No. On the disposition. I'm not being funny. The disposition says that Ryan Houston, uh, ATF agent or whatever, >> uh, ATF agent, the activated ATF agent, uh, said that, uh, >> he stole someone's ID. >> I'm going to take some pictures of you. Okay. >> All right. I'mma pull you out, get some air. Okay. >> Give me a flash. >> Are you posing right now? No, I was [laughter] I was trying to do something. You >> want to do a side one? >> What's your name? >> My name? >> Deputy Delhome. >> Deputy Delhome. >> Home. >> Mhm. >> You don't feel too good, huh? How do you feel like? >> Very dizzy. >> Very dizzy, huh? And he's claiming that he don't feel good now. He feel very dizzy. All right, I'mma pull you out. Get some air. Okay. Okay. >> Come on. Get some air. Come on. >> Now, remember, this guy pulled out a sidearm on these officers and was going to engage them and he just didn't have the tactical skill to make it happen, and the officer is still being kind enough to say, "You need some air. I'm going to let you get some air." It's very rare that you're in a career field where you end up having a person pull out a sidearm on you. Then you're in the position where you can make their life a little bit easier. They're actually very loose on you, dude. >> They're loose. I can put two fingers in here. They're loose. >> You can't move, >> huh? >> You can't move them. >> Well, you're a big guy. >> I usually give two guys two cuffs, but you don't you don't deserve two cuffs. All right. >> Come over here real quick. Get some Go get some air. >> Stay Stay Stay right here. Yep. Stay right here, sir. Don't do nothing stupid. >> It's enough. Okay, >> I'm just going to read you this. You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can be used against you in court. You have the right to talk to a lawyer for advice before we ask any questions and have him or her with you during questioning. If you cannot afford a lawyer, one will be appointed to you before questioning if you wish. If you decide to answer questions without a lawyer present, you will still have the right to stop answering at any time. You will also have the right to stop answering at any time until you talk to a lawyer. Do you understand these rights? >> Are you willing to talk to me? >> What? I'm yes or no. I'll ask you I'll ask questions after that. No. Okay. >> That is Brian, by the way. >> That's not the guy that I got. >> Okay. Well, that's Brian, just so you know. >> Well, then they have their paperwork in Lee County because that's not him. I've never met him before. >> I just And again, I only read like honestly I only read like the first paragraph of your PCA and I didn't go deeper. >> But um >> we never got arrested together that >> and and I I said I didn't go down that rabbit hole. I literally was just looking at your what your first booking sheet, but I saw that. So, I just >> and you could be completely honest with me, I just find that very odd that >> that gentleman's name's in there and lo and behold, he's standing in front of me. >> No, I >> you know [laughter] what I mean? So, I just I don't know. >> Call me crazy. >> But maybe he was uh it could have been maybe someone else got arrested uh there. I like I said, in all fairness to you, I didn't read through your whole case. the dude that went and got went and told on me with his girlfriend. >> I didn't even see the other girl's name in what I read. >> Well, if you look further down. >> Oh, I'm sure it'll be in that. >> She did get he did get arrested after that. But that was way after I got arrested. >> Yeah. I don't know. >> Okay. Well, either way, we'll um give us a few minutes to get it figured out and see. Um cuz I believe he talked to um Herz and >> Oh, the uh >> Did you get the Did you get the thing? >> The phone. >> See? Yeah. I I don't know him. Oh, please. >> That's all >> She's she's just covering her tracks up. >> Like I said, it's it's I literally the first three paragraphs. So, >> but that's fine. >> He didn't want to talk about anything really. >> I can't blame him. He literally has warrants out of like everywhere. ATF, >> um >> Lee County, >> uh Pennsylvania. >> No >> All sorts of stuff. Yeah, bad. He's bad news. So, um, yeah, if we don't have anything on her, we got her ID, then we'll give her a warning for what we have. And >> you got you got her. >> Yeah. Yeah. He can he can stay out here and suck up some fine >> and then we'll get him out of here so he can get out of his cuffs and get stretch his whatever. >> He's going to give you his your warnings and then he's going to have you out of here. Okay. >> I think that's just like the first page, too. Huh? Sorry. Oh, you got it. >> He sent me this. >> Hold the screenshot. Um, >> what else do you need? I don't know what else he's He's sending more. >> Yeah, see that shows I was rented. What we need is the It'll show the the authorized driver. >> The authoriz drivers. >> There's no name right there. >> Yeah, but there there's a part, I guess, where there's authorized drivers. But I told him, I said, I don't think I'm on that. >> No. >> Yeah, that's Well, that's going to be something for them to >> um you have to deal with. Yeah, like it doesn't even have um >> been extended. Where where where's the agreement that you got? >> That's got like your name and stuff on it, bud. >> Right. On the driver's side door. >> No, dude. She doesn't have anything. The only the only thing that she that she's showing me now is >> paper. Um that >> does it have his information on it? >> Yeah. He said he didn't want it. >> Let me let me take a look at Okay. Can I go to the driver? >> Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. You guys good with him for right now? >> I did. >> Obviously, he's a felon. >> He's a convicted felon. Correct. >> Can I go to my vape? >> Yes, you may. Absolutely. >> And listen, I appreciate you being cooperative after that. You understand kind of why you got put in handcuffs temporarily because of what? >> You know, it's kind of dumb for what he did. Let me see here. Okay. Okay. Here we'll do. So, I'll just take a picture of that. You always have the rental agreement. This is obviously who you're you're talking to, Juan, or your brother, whoever he is. Um, sorry. >> We're not going to we're not going to make an issue out of whether you're on the thing or not. We called Herz um whoever we talked to, they they have to verify in the morning. Normally, they can verify right away. And normally when they do verify and if the driver who's driving is not on it, they tell us to tow the car. >> Oh god. >> But because I'm not driving it ever again. >> Oh no. Well, really, if you guys are going to rent it, he just has to list you as a driver. That's all. >> Okay. >> Um and they'll give him a new sheet. I think I >> I think they pay um >> extra. >> It probably pays extra. Yeah. So, >> we'll just take a snapshot and have that. Um >> but because that they they said at this point they can't confirm that, we're not going to do anything with it. It's more of a between you and her. If they decide to >> come get the car or charge or whatever, that's on for you guys. Okay. So, >> I'm just going to make sure that we don't need anything else from you and you'll be able to go on your way and >> I'm so so sorry. >> You know, I you can't control what someone else does, but >> No, not at all. >> If you just have a very interest cuz I mean, if you truly are telling me the truth that you don't know this guy, >> that's not the guy that got me in trouble. The other guy was an ETF agent, a retire or deactivated one or whatever the case may be. That was not him. >> Yeah, but that is Brian. 100% Brian. There's something interesting going on I'm going to talk about at the end about how these night shift and graveyard shifts work. This is interesting stuff. >> 1,000% Brian. I verified that there were fingerprints. >> He has warrants where here >> pick. >> I'm not going to go putting his history out there, but >> no wonder who what woman would go out with. >> He's got several. >> Never mind. Did you even know he had a gun? >> No, I didn't. >> Why do you think I was freaking out right here when you were yelling at me? >> Yeah. Then he tried to pull on us ab of all things. So, um, yeah. Let me make sure that they have >> You got >> Did you Is she done? You good with her? >> I gave her. >> Do we need anything else from her? No, that's going to stay with him. >> That's all broke. >> Do we need anything else from him or from her or we got what we got? You got the >> I got everything that's his. We're going safekeep. So, you're good. >> I took a picture of the um >> contract that was in the door that's got her brother's name on it. And uh I explained to him that, you know, whatever. She's not the driver shelter. Just figure it out. He can just list you. But I think there's a charge. >> That's fine. That's fine. do that because I didn't know that. >> But I understand that that that's that can happen with a rental car. Um so yeah, if if you don't have any questions for us, then >> No, that's not at this point. >> That's not my problem. >> You sure? >> Have a good day. >> All right. Good luck to you. >> Yeah, I'm not >> That's not him. >> No, not even close. >> That was right here in his ID. >> We'll have to run We'll have to run it and see. Yeah, he's a >> I'm a deceased. >> He's a convicted felon. [snorts] Um he's actually only got one felony conviction. He's got multiple charges outstanding, but he's got a he's got a a conviction out of Lee County. >> You got what [snorts] you have. You're pretty much >> So um we're going to have >> resisting obviously. >> Obviously. Well, we have at least one warrant that I confirmed. Lee County. He's got multiple. We don't care. >> We don't have to worry about that. >> No, we do. I verified it because that was the reason why we were we were >> Oh, no, no, no, no. I'm talking about like the one from Lee County. All sales account. >> No, we're going to do the leak. We have to serve the one Lee County warrant that we confirmed that I confirmed. We're going to do we're going to do the out of county warrant. We'll do the resisting. >> We'll do the possession of a firearm by a convicted felon. >> Um and I think that's it. We didn't put any on him, right? >> And everything else we will take in inventory and put in for safekeeping at minimum >> and Sarasota can decide at some point. Oh, he has a suppressor too apparently. So that's another charge. That's a Can we look into that? >> That's a I don't know the statue on it, but I'm pretty sure he can't. It's It's part of a fire. I think it just be another like a possession of a firearm, but I took the phone. So, >> I'm with it. >> Okay. I want to talk about some things really interesting here. And we could see that the sergeant is on scene and he showed up very early into when they took the guy into custody. And I want to talk about graveyard shifts in these night shifts. Most officers have to when they first finish field training end up working sometime on the night shift. Sometimes they don't have to. It's the least desirable of the shift. There's usually three shifts. And that shift usually starts around 10:00 or midnight and they work 8 or 10 hours. I enjoyed working at night. You get to learn a lot. Seeing this sergeant who has this time on who likely doesn't have to work that shift because when you have seniority, you don't have to work nights. But it's good when you see a person who appears to have a lot of experience sharing with the younger officers, the things that he knows through his many years of training and experience. Because a lot of times our sergeants get promoted newly, they have to go to graveyard and they try to grade off as quickly as possible. So it's refreshing to see Sergeant. A lot of interesting things happen here. Even aside from the tactical things I mentioned because the passenger didn't identify himself, but the officers were able to identify him. And there are a lot of interesting ways that officers can do that. So, shout out to the officer who figured out who he was through his investigative skills. That is very good stuff. And shout out to the officer who made the initial stop. Take care of the misdemeanor. The felonies will take care of themselves. You hear me say that? It's old school police saying. I learned it when I was a rookie and I believe it. Misdemeanor car stop turned into a guy who we definitely don't want to have on the street that was attempting to pull his sidearm out. The reason I'm electing to say sardom is because I believe that that word burden will make it past the YouTube challenges. And the YouTube challenges are significant when I really just want to share information. So in policing, when you stop a car like that, we say that's a good spot or a good stop. And it's turned out to be a very good stop cuz that firearm did not need to be on the street in the hands of that person and that person was wanted for some significant stuff. The officers arrested him for the resisting possession of a firearm by a convicted felon. And the PC charges, I'm guessing if they had PC charges, which I believe that they did. So those were the PC charges. And then he has his warrants that he has to deal with. I'm so happy that no one was injured. And again, my criticism is constructive in nature to help other officers. And whenever I do a video that I believe that there's going to be some degree of criticism, I intentionally wear the shirt with my name on it because I am very happy to speak to anyone who has a challenge with things that I say in my videos that are considered constructive criticism. And on that note, it brings me to an incredible coin that I'm very happy to share in a letter. So, please listen to this because I've actually interacted with this person before. So, first I am going to read the letter and please listen because this is very very close to my heart because of the things that were shared in this letter. It'll make sense to you as to why I want to share a few things with you particularly why sending you these two challenge coins mean something to me after I got home from afternoon. So, this is a lieutenant on a police department. His wife's name is Nicole and he told me it's okay to share his name and his wife's name. Nicole has something waiting for me to eat. I shower, decompress, and somewhere in the background there's usually a body camera channel playing. You would think after spending an entire shift doing police, the last thing I want to do is watch more police work. Yet I find myself watching yours. After 26 years on the job, there's not many people who make me stop, listen, and think about how I do this profession. You do. Sometimes you reinforce something I've believed for years. Other times, you point out something that makes me reconsider how I might handle the same situation. And every once in a while, I will say something while watching and seconds later you say almost exactly the same thing. Nicole just looks over at me and laughs. That warms my heart. I love that couples watch this together. And here's where it gets really deep. The lieutenant shared two coins with me. The first coin I am sending you is especially important to me. It is my only police officer, Colin Rose memorial challenge coin. Colin was my K-9 officer and my friend. He was shot on November 22nd, 2016 and his end of watch was November 23rd, 2016. When I commanded our crime abatement team, Colin and his K9 partner, Kyle A Rottweiler, worked closely with us. We conducted gang and narcotics investigations together, including operations with ATF. Colin and Kyle were part of our team and stood beside us on raids and in places where everyone depended on the person next to them. I held on to that coin since it was made and now I want you to have it. So humbled by this and I got to show this coin and I'm going to make sure that we do it exactly. So this is Collins coin that was sent to me by the LT. Always remembered in valor there is hope. Richland police. This is the other side of the coin and it looks like Collins badge number is 128. Wayne State University end of watch 112316. This episode is going to be dedicated to Colin. So I'm going to make sure that that's on and he gets the recognition that he deserves. We thank him for his service. I'm going to show that again. The lieutenant sent another coin from Wayne State University Police Department. Guardians in Midtown Detroit officers they are and deal with a whole bunch of different stuff in the tactics. And he and I spoke on the phone before and I really felt a huge connection to him. I love the fact that he and his wife are so connected on this. I hope that you can see that I tilt. So, this episode is dedicated to Colin. And the ending of the note he put, this is one of those. Lieutenant Carrie Glazer and Wayne State University Police Department. Every so often, a cop with more than 26 years on the job, comes home after working afternoon, turns on another body cam, realizes he's still learning something from a retired sergeant 2,000 mi away. Shout out to ult. I really have a lot of respect for you. Had a great conversation with you on the phone. This episode is dedicated to your friend and your partner. Respect.
