  • @Copwatchtv obtained body camera footage of a private security guard accused of impersonating a police officer after he tried to pull over an off duty police captain on the interstate. This video shows how the guard tried to justify unknowingly trying to pull over a New Mexico State Police captain.
    State police were called to assist an off duty NMSP captain on November 4 who called to report someone trying to pull him over on I-40. “He turns on all of his lights - blues in the front, reds in the back - just trying to control traffic and act like a cop,” said the NMSP captain. The captain said something felt off.
    When responding NMSP officers talked with Ronald Portillo he claimed the captain never identified himself. Portillo then became argumentative over the captain’s authentic badge.
    Officers tried to place Portillo into custody after he basically talked himself into getting arrested. Once detained, Portillo had a bizarre explanation for what he was doing. “We go to Central and Eubank and we just run all the way down the hill. I didn’t light him up. I didn’t do anything because that’s against the law to pose as an officer. I’m a "PPO" for the state. I work for this private company and we’re cleaning house here,” Portillo says. It is unclear what he meant when he said he was a PPO. State records show Portillo is merely a private investigator with no arrest or police powers whatsoever. He definitely had no authority to try and pull over a private citizen. To make things even more ridiculous Portillos vehicle didn't even have a license plate displayed most likely to conceal his identity while pulling over other random citizens.
    The captain tried to discuss the incident with the guard, but he remained defiant.
    Portillo was not arrested on scene but instead was given a misdemeanor citation for impersonating an officer and he was released. Portillo was scheduled to be arraigned on the charge on December 7 but the arresting officer forgot to sign the citation so it was dismissed in court. NMSP said they have refiled the charge with a signed citation. If found guilty, Portillo faces up to a year behind bars and a fine of up to $2,000.

  • @manicobservations9605

    What type of security guard wears full tactical gear that says "K9" lulz. A grown ass man playing cops and robbers like a five year old

  • @s111stock

    He doesn't deny lighting him up, he just keeps saying, he has no proof.

  • @macmedic892

    He has a bad back from Iraq? Was it when he parachuted into Fallujah? Does he also perform “high-risk funeral escorts”?

  • @ONeil-S.D

    I love cop impersonators. Always talk themselves into a circle of lies and act like they know more than the real cops.

  • @TheLexiechey

    I wonder how many people he's actually stopped unlawfully?

  • @Jaketheaxman

    As a security industry professional that has done it all, (personal protective details, retail security/LP/asset protection, security patrols for businesses and other private properties, and foreign detail contracts, among so many more aspects of the private sector) I can assure you all that there is no way in hell that you can "accidentally" turn on your lights or direct the flow of traffic on a public way. This guy is a crack job when it comes to honesty and integrity.

  • @Here4theComments9

    His USMC tattoo screams he peaked when he was younger and wanted to be a tough guy in his 50s

  • @anonymouse9833

    The way he's defending his actions is kinda wild. He thinks he's really something special

  • @PoppaBearandBabyBear.-be5jz

    I spent almost three years impersonating a cop, I carried a gun and a badge, tracked suspects and investigated crimes. I never had any issues from the police. The community was nothing but happy when they saw me.

  • @kierisylph686

    He is above level 3 security... and wait until he tells you about his 12th level Paladin! 🙄🙄
