A Hudson man and his attorneys have filed a federal lawsuit against a Hernando County Deputy and Walmart alleging racial profiling and a false arrest.
Walmart must be held accountable. This is a terrible abuse of power.
Asking for a person's ID is the first step when stopping and questioning someone. How did the deputy not do that? Mr. Nguygen was humiliated in front of customers, deprived of his liberty and traumatized, He should be compensated accordingly and it should be a 7 or 8 figures.
100%. I just cannot believe they never bothered to ask him for his ID. WTH?
I wanna know what skin color they racial profiled an what color is his race cause I don’t see a color in his skin for whyte cops to target
@@Ontiming2023 He looks asian to me, that stands out, I guess he looked like an another asian man who stole items and that's why he was singled out. Asian is a race and they come in many colors. If you were targeted in a store in front of people, police failed to ask for Identification and led away in handcuffs even if you were innocent you'd be crying like a b*tich. Stating you would sue. So don't act dumb! In 2017 a 69 year old Vietnamese American doctor was DRAGGED OFF AN AIRPLANE for not giving up the seat he rightly paid for. Asians have been targeted and been victims of racial bias. If it were me I would sue!
@@leequinn2733 Asian isn’t a color a racist whyte person is looking for color
Cops ask for ID to see if you have warrants so they can arrest you. But if they get half a reason to arrest you, they could care less about your ID. Even in cases of mistaken identity; because the arrest is all that matters to them.
So much is wrong here. Not getting the man's ID immediately was a really stupid mistake. The consequences of being arrested are substantial, so arresting the wrong person needs to have huge consequences on the officer.

The biggest problem a black man would refuse to show any ID just like George Floyd .
@@cashcash5995 I don’t understand your statement, can you explain what you mean? Thank you. Cheers from 🇨🇦
@@aprilshendaruk2388He can't, he's just a racist pos.
@thisguy4209 huh never realized that, explains alot
They better erase this unwarranted arrest from his record because it would be difficult to find a job with a criminal record
Won't matter if he makes multiple millions xD
@@AzeOfSpadez I get your point it's valid but only valid so far. For some people it matters just on principle alone because money is not everything for them. For business or travel having an arrest on your record makes clients skittish even if he's innocent.

This cop sure got real nice when he realized he just kidnapped a man.
He was such a d*rk, it's hard to take that cop seriously
The deputy NEVER ASKED FOR IDENTIFICATION !🤬
He has not been disciplined for his actions?! He did no investigation, he took the word of a Walmart employee. He violated 18 U.S. Code § 242. That is clear as day. Why protect his identity? If that was a civilian media would plaster their face all over. Police departments should not investigate their own crimes. For true accountability, an independent entity should be in charge. People are tired of hearing "we have investigated ourselves and found we did nothing wrong."
This could of been avoided if they asked for the ID at the store
They don't have to, he's a Chinese national and a spy

@@thisguy4209 they have quotas and when they have a kid on the way and want to keep their jobs they would have incentives to make bogus arrest or write bullshit tickets
@@haydenfowle7576 I've never seen solid evidence of official quotas and most cops will tell you it's B.S. There is enough crime and enough people breaking traffic laws that cops can find unlimited things to investigate. It's more like generating revenue has become the priority for police. There may be some incentives for officers to make a certain number of arrests, but it's not much more than the incentive a waiter has to be an employee of the month for the most tips and customer compliments. I don't think quotas are the problem.
Cops in the US receive less training than a Barber. Florida is one the states where they receive the least "training" time.
Why are you blocking the bad-cops face? Public record.
Hernando County Deputy Michael McNeeley
He wasn't a bad cop. He made a mistake but was nothing short of polite throughout the ordeal
@@imathreat209 he made a mistake the proceeded to take tony back to jail after he apologized over a 2013 trespass thats been negated considering he shopped there multiple times after a year and no one did anything. Also, why didnt he just check his ID? stop making excuses for officers, they’re supposed to be professionals. He humiliated tony and arrested him for nothing.
@@imathreat209he is stuupid
He made a mistake of not identifying his actual identity
Walmart owe him big time.
Also a nerd cop
I hope a judge finds in their heart that this situation was wrong. Walmart deserves to to loose and pay because their loss prevention staff clearly has training issues. Someone better have side by side pictures and confirm a name before calling for someone to get arrested. This is traumatizing.
The dam judge don't give a rat ass- he will side with the man an badge
this guy was tresspassed from this walmart 10 years ago, so he was still arrested for it.
@@Nadindel letting him shop there over and over again, after he was trespassed, 10 plus years ago, negates the trespass. The security guy needs to be held accountable as well as the cops and wallyworld. Jmho. Cheers from 🇨🇦
@@Nadindel not only did he repeatedly shop there years after with no problem beforehand that does not negate the racial profiling and mistake which led to a coincidental arrest. This is like going into someone’s house instead of the neighbors for drug paraphernalia and then finding some carts in the house and arresting them for it. It’s genuinely nuts like that’s a genuine coincidence and if it wasn’t for the racial profiling he would’ve been fine like he was every other time.
@@Nadindel The cops didn't know he was trespassed 10 years ago. The cops let him go and apologized for it but then they tried to cover it up later by claiming it had something to do with that trespass that Walmart voided by allowing him to shop for years.
The deputy won't be identified, disciplined, or charged! Tell us something we didn't already know, anyone with internet knows the deputy won't be identified, disciplined, or charged he has diplomatic immunity I mean qualified immunity.
This is evil’s
@@AppalachianPatriot Suspects arrested by police are innocent until proven guilty but their names and faces are plastered all over the news. Rules for thee but not for me right?
Again you confirm the fact police are sovereign citizens who live under different rules than the citizenry.
Do realize this is a patrol officer and your argument about undercover is a logical fallacy and asinine.
Qualified immunity only applies unless it defies a clearly established right or law. 18 U.S. Code § 242 is clearly established as is the 4th amendment.

Pointless anyway. The video is from Nguyen's RUclips page. The deputies face shown clearly.
What they left out in the video is that in the car ride home, the chief called the deputy taking Mr. Nguyen home so that they can run his ID to see if he committed any crimes and when they found that trespass warning from years ago, they brought him back and fully arrested him for trespassing. The trespassing charge is in this video is in reference to the second "charge" of trespassing which they never would've discovered if they hadn't arrested him wrongfully, if that trespass warning is even in effect. That caller needs training, Walmart.
Yup Walmart does not rescind trespassing unless you pay a huge amount. Like several thousand dollars. Then they still don't for a couple years AFTER you pay the fines. And their ain't nothing you can do.
@@adrielburned6924The issue was that in 2013 when Nguyen was trespasser and he went to court they told him the trespass was valid for a year and he had court documents proving that.
He should've sued the department as well. The fact that they're justifying an unlawful arrest based on a trespass notice years ago is concerning.
They were not called for him they were acting based on something else and he just happened to have a trespass prior.
A no trespass can only be for 1 yr in Fl and after that if the store let him shop there the order is automatically vacated so......the sheriff using a clerical oversight to cover for a deputy is wrong.
Exactly
I tried not to shop at Walmart in Canada and the USA. I have seen fights, arguing, threats in different locations, cities and in Canada and the USA many times. Ironically, my family shops at Target and have never seen anything even close to Walmart. It may have something to do with Walmart's staff training and the quality of their staffs.
it has everything to do with training and quality just recently i was at my local walmart (i have severe copd,asthma and have to be on oxygen when im up and around) i went to take the cart i was using back to charge , the door greeter asked if i was parking it (there was an old guy who was sitting at a subways in there (he said he had been waiting a half hour for a cart) the intended accusation here is that i looked like i didnt even have to use the cart. (he didnt say this but his attitude said it all , as well as his tone of voice ). i gladly gave it up to the older guy no problem . i went back to the checkout where my family was so i could retrieve my oxygen tank so we could leave. i hope that (door greeter) felt like crap when i walked back out the door pulling my tank behind me.
Totally agree with you
Maybe you should stop starting fights. You will quickly find life is easier when you don't get your ass beat every week..
I'm glad he's sueing
It's funny how "After the fact" they're now producing paperwork from ten years ago to try to cover their ass.
How do you get all the way from shopping to being stopped, cuffed, arrested, taken to jail, before they even ask your name.
Yet here they are saying the officer did nothing wrong.
Cops got to deal with alot of shoplifting @ Walmart.
The court will take this into consideration.
This deliberation is now in recess. The honorable Harry T. Stone will be presiding.
It's a lesson learned. Incidents like this can set things straight. There's an old saying that you have to learn to walk before you can learn to fly.
Situations like this will not stop but is never-ending unless something happens in a court of law.
Shame on this news channel for not naming the deputy
Officer knucklehead. Badge number DDD. "D"for dumb.
They did though. At the 2:30 minute they inadvertently plastered his name all over the screen when they showed the lawsuit/complaint 😂
The 🐷’s name is Deputy Michael Mcneely btw
That’s scary.
Being arrested can cause lifelong issues for someone, *so cops should face lifelong consequences for falsely arresting someone.*
Don't gamble with someone else's life *unless you're certain enough to put your OWN life up as collateral in case you're wrong.*
Being arrested can cause life long issues?!!
GTFOH with that.
Maybe if your beaten and it's causes physical damage.
The statement from the police dept is an example of how deep the us vs them mentality goes. Using the power and resources afforded them by the people to be used against the people. A complete revamp of law enforcement from the top down, needs to be initiated.
Why is the entire video not shown?!?!?! That officer said he was taking him home but then took him back to jail and arrested him again!!!!
Even though they got the wrong guy, the wrong guy also had a tresspass against him.
@rztrzt yeah like 15 years ago, he claims that he was allowed back a year later, like who df is gonna arrest someone who was banned for that long?
Loss prevention = customers filing federal lawsuit, pure genius!!
The trespass was still in effect, but they let him shop there numerous times? Doesn’t that negate the trespass? This is absolutely ridiculous on behalf of the cops who didn’t even bother to verify, until after he was at the jail, the man’s identity!
it does negate the trespass, the trespass is only in act for a year anyways so he was legally able to go into that walmart after 2014. the fact that some people are defending the officer and walmart for a crime this man committed a decade ago is disgusting
I agree.
His lawyer most likely talked him into the $10mil amount. You know they need to get PAIDDDDD! 🤣
i'am glad his lawyer did ! aren't you ?
@@day105
No, because it's damned absurd. Even $10,000 is a bit much for a few hours of hassle.
A message needs to be sent.
@@war1980 How much are your rights worth?
@@lIlIllIIII
He is not being denied any of his rights and none of his rights were even arguably violated in any way shape or form for more than an hour, and that's even if your accept the premise his rights were violated.
Get out of here with your facile garbage.
He needs to go after Wallymart and the county! Take an undisclosed settlement! 1 million would do! 😎
Suing for 10 mil...I'd settle for 4.5 mil.
Why undisclosed?
@@timothyavendt677 family!
@@lorenzob3400
Makes sense.
@@angelalane1307 suing for 10 million is smoke and mirrors done by the law firm, this isn't going anywhere, at most I'd say he would get 100k, more realistically he makes 50k. You can see how much people are given for this type of stuff, and it's not the millions.
Ten million dollars worth of damages? Right!
they not gonna get anywhere near 10mil. they will get something. but 10 mil? come on.
They gonna need to sell 10 properties. "Walmart! The store that takes you above and beyond!"
The gun and badge thugs always demand ID the first thing, even unlawfully. This was deliberate by the gun and badge thug.
It's a shame, with Walmart & the police officer.
Walmart & the officer needs to take full responsibility.
& shame on Walmart management for putting this guy for Humiliation.
Justice needs to be met.
I can’t believe it … the police officer and the Walmart employee can be SO STUPID
You know the answer already why they refused to give you an answer as to why they didnt ask for his ID. The officier didnt care if he got the right person or not, becuase he believes in the LP's assumption. We call that racial profiling!
Why blur the criminal’s face?
Ppl stop going to walmart
“I thought it would never happen to me.”
What he said. Word.👍🏿💯
Imagine the one who said 'That's him!' 😳...he wasn't even caught shop lifting maybe 20 years ago since he said that!!????? Well, when he is successful and gets a pay out that person will be fired 😳 oops
How to stop this crap, I don't shop there. 🤦 But hey, guilty until proven innocent.
Hope he wins ,wins,wins,wins,wins,some millions ❤
he wins 50 grand, wait like 1 grand after lawyer costs! yippe!
The on going trespass is illegal. It is rescinded atomatically as soon as he is served and given a receipt for any purchases. Once again the clops are arses. Its American law. CrankyGranny Western Australia.
More reasons why to shop online or curbside pickup: 1-safety, 2-shoplifters 3-mistakenly getting arrested / profiled and will probably lose my job for it.
It also bring a question: how long can a Walmart ban it customer? 1 year? 2 years? 10 years? Indefinite? He been banned 14-15 years ago. Even if he go to jail he would been release long long ago. What kind of authority Walmart have that can dish out punishment harsher than government?
The cop didn’t identify the man and arrested him, even after he stated he needed to take his seizure medication. Hope the whole department gets sued the snot out of. The cop didn’t even bother to look at the ID, before the arrest.
keep us updated!!!!!
We are NOT the same ! I’m so sick of racial profiling 😤
he literally looks just like the other guyy. thats not fucking racial profiling
The cop f'd up didn't read him his rights! This guy has just hit the lottery!
Concealing the deputy is some serious boot licking BS.
Hope he wins
he'll win, just not much.
I think it's just a WalMart thing - I was in holiday in Texas and went in one to buy a satellite navigation system. After I'd paid, I put my sunglasses on, started walking out quickly and was accosted by security there asking me to show them my receipt. There wasn't any trouble beyond that but I did ask: "is this something you normally do?" and the guy basically said 'yes'!
No other store I went into had a problem with me nor my sunglasses and just about every stranger I met was like a friend to me. Only in WalMart did all the staff seem unhappy from the guy that helped me find the product, to the lady at the checkout and the security guy. Perhaps in the case in this video, someone called the cops just to add something a little more interesting to their otherwise depressing day! ...Perhaps they didn't even notice!
Walmart is SHADY. They have pulled some crap, falsely accusing people of stealing when they didn't.
So glad this guy sued Walmart. Cops were wrong not to investigate also.
Everyone should use video cameras and never trust anyone, always make sure to video everything.....!!! Hold them accountable and sue sue sue.....!!! Get unlawful cops and unreasonable employees fired.
This time they didn't ask for iD????? Really??
The Walmart response, is so unprofessional
Why is the police officers face blurred out?
Police: "we investigated ourselves....and found that we did nothing wrong".
Uhh there is a trespass order on him? Dude… stop wasting the court’s time!
If you can clearly identify the victim, you should also be identifying the assailant.
We already know how the cop looks like no need to blur 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Such a terrible terrible situation. May justice prevail 🙏🏻
You should identify the Deputy and AP employees.
The officer did the right thing and admitted the mistake but his superiors (who weren't even there) had no problem lying to legally protect the department/police.
Uld have asked for ID no?
HIS trespass warning was NOT active as he had shopped there several times.
They all need to be sued. That’s what happens when u hire young people as security people at $8 per hour
And he probably won't be fired
The statement from Walmart is one of their boilerplate style statements. Had it included something about the AP agent undergoing additional training or something to that effect. It would mean more, as it is Walmart is just going to do what Walmart does in situations like this. Throw money at it until it goes away.
can you arrest the manager of wallmart?
This police officer needs to be FIRED and be sued, as well as the police department and WALMART!
Remove Qualified immunity from all Cops so we can Sue them for being Criminals.....
America's newest MILLIONAIRE! Well done Police Departments, America wide, for bettering the lives of those most vulnerable to your pernicious ways
Walmart is going to pay big bucks for this screwup.😅
Boycott Walmart.
Why was the cop not included in the lawsuit?
He should have verified his identity first before arresting the man.
What kind of cop just listens to a claim without verifying?
Anyone have an update on this case?
The arresting officer should be required to comply to reimbusing Mr Tony Nguygen for thinking that Tony is a transpasser in which he isn't.
Please think positive daily. ™

The bigger picture is that, the deputy failed to verify Mr. Nguyen 's identity on the spot rather than just go on the word of the loss prevention specialist until after he was booked into jail. The opportunity to do so was there and I'm sure it's a matter of policy.
Name and shame the officer!
All caught on camera!
Smh!
Lets see what a frustrated population with these domestic terrorists have to say in court. My belief......the entire 10 mil.
And this very intelligent officer didnt think of asking him his name or for his i.d.?!🙄🤦🤷
Sheriff Grady would have called in swat to take him down.
I guess police don’t understand due process 🤔

Sooooooo Happy He Filed A Law Suit. Get Paid Young Man GET PAID YOUNG MAN!!!!!
Man went from flip flops to Cartier shades😂
So the guy had a criminal record associated with this Walmart. I’m sure he’s an angel. Ambulance chaser for lawyer, I suppose.
You know it's not like we're asking the police to do crazy things outside their job description like come over to my house and mow my lawn. All we're asking them to do is their job properly!. Why is that too much to ask?.
And I hope he wins the case. That stupid officer did him wrong.
This is more than mistaken identity, Son. This was a failure to verify the arrestee 's ID on contact a violation of department policy, I'm sure. The arresting officer reacted solely on the word of the loss prevention employee rather than following protocol. This was a huge mistake on the part of the arrestung officer.
I’m confused, was he booked and charged because the officer stating why he was taking him home seems like he wasn’t.
Poor deputy. Let's protect him. 🙄
Also, if the person has a trespass or banned from the store wouldn’t you have their picture in the front of the store or something?.
They will never admit they messed-up and that just wallmart pigs just brush it under carpet and hope it go away
The LPO was found to be the cause!
First of all a no trespass warning is only valid for one calendar year and in that one calendar year if the establishment does any business with the individual no trespassing becomes invalid, if asset protection was doing their job they would have had photographs of the person that is trespassed because it’s Walmarts policy for asset protection in the event they are trespassing, someone they have to take a picture of them so I believe along with the lawsuit the entire asset protection team of that store should be fired
The officer failed to do his job. He should have some integrity and resign.
Bro finna get cash out he already got the buss down Cartier shades 😂😂
Let’s identify the rookie deputy. Stop protecting him. Expose expose expose
AND THE ANSWER IS: WE STUPID, THATS WHY!!! 🤷🏽♂️
