Former Cop Busts Fake Cop for Police Impersonation
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 27 окт 2023
- @Copwatchtv obtained body camera footage of a recent police interaction of San Juan County Deputies pulling over a man accused of impersonating a police officer.
A former cop was driving down the highway when the suspect flashed "red and blues" and seemed to try to attempt a traffic stop. The former cop called 911 and reported the strange behavior.
Soon deputies pulled the suspect over and he was evasive on his answers on if he had red and blue lights in his car. He eventually gave them up to the deputies and was criminally summonsed to appear on impersonating a police officer.

What’s even more disturbing is that his entire family is in on it. They’re teaching their kids that it’s ok to do illegal and immoral things. And it’s just overall weird and creepy to me.
Well they also saw him getting lectured about lying, and being spared from jail
Dude most of these people raise their kids like that. It’s how they think. They aren’t going out of their way to be devious that’s just how they are generally. There are tens of millions of people like that in the US.
Come down off your high horse
I agree 100+%!

I'd rather be on a high horse than stuck to the bottom of a shoe like you.
Jeremy DeWitte would NEVER let something like this happen in his county. we need more respectable police officers like him
🤣🤣
You mean more respectable fake police officers bahahshahaha
You better figure it out
There not red and blue deputy!! They’re purple and orange !!
LMAOOOOOOOO
I love that they say “I wouldn’t with my kids in the car” and then lie to police in front of their kids. Good parenting dad!
Better yet, they did those exact things with their kids in the car.
They're from Texas
@@uuuultra_Austin_ Texas.. lol
Probably on a ego trip...
Dont confess to cops
The guy almost jizzed his pants when the cop said he thought you were FBI…
That's what I was thinking, dude heard that and probably thought "Damn, I must be good at impersonating!... FBI? That's way better than a cop!"
The wife is a liar too, she knew the cop guessed correctly, the driver was using a detachable light to move traffic so he can speed. I feel sorry for the kids.
Learn from this!!! Your kids are watching everything you do. If they end up being stupid later in life and you’re wondering why???, march yourself into bathroom and look at the mirror; the ANSWER is staring right at you.
He will lie and she will swear to it..
Impersonating-cop kink is a real thing. Only thing better than pizza delivery guy.
I run amber flashers in my car but I also work security and only use them on my job sites and not on ppl

Jermey doesn’t impersonate a police officer. Jeremy impersonates an entire police department.
Kudos to the past cop for calling it in.
I wouldn’t even wanna be a real cop much less a fake one😂😂😂
Used to be a great job but now they treat you like crap police chief throw you under the bus for any reason is easier to fire you then fighting for you in court plus the public begin to hate the police
Dammit…that’s a phenomenal comment!!!!!
Dude lies in front of his wife and kids. Dude is a coward and should be ashamed if himself. Wife is no better lying and lying
Dad could have turned this into one heck of a teaching moment for his kids if he had of owned up to his mistake. Could have really set a good example and maybe even set an example that his kids would remember for life, that its better to own up to your BS instead of being a coward and lying in front of your entire family + all of RUclips Land. He only coughed up the light once he knew his soft ass wouldnt be going to jail.
Should they have been buddy buddy with the cop and gotten themselves in jail?
His wife lied and obstructed for him. Not once did she mention him using the light bar let alone admit he handed it back to her when they were being pulled over. She also deserves a day in court
Always lie to cop questioning you. Never tell them honest answers even when they try to act like buddies. Cause you only ever talk your way into tickets or charges.
@@MrZackb69 so your advice is always lie, not don't commit a criminal act too start with, awesome mentality. Btw how did lying work out for this guy?
Fake cop or otherwise, people who speed up and pass you back once you’ve passed them, only to slow down again, then speed up and do the same again once you’ve passed them again (without once altering your own speed) are very annoying.
They take it personally that you passed them going faster. Yeah, dumbass, that’s how you pass people on public roads.
Yeah, I've seen that. That is jacked-up.
It's the strangest ego trip thing I've ever seen. Like they take it as some sort of personal insult that someone would dare to go a little faster
My ex was one of those people who sped up, slowed down, and I was like just use the god damn cruise control what the fuck is wrong with you.
I once had a rental with no cruise control. I found myself doing this. I just started following people instead.
He doesn't flash the red and blue because he wants people to move. He does it because he craves the authority over people on the road. How many times have you witnessed a guy driving recklessly on the road and think to yourself, "Man, I wish a cop were watching this." He solved that statement by putting fear in other drivers by way of flashing red and blue lights. That feeling of dread you get when you see them behind you. He sees himself as one of the good guys, a vigilante, who's there to slow other drivers down, or basically assert his will on people when the cops aren't around to. A strong case of Dunning-Kruger effect, where he believes he is on par (or perhaps more qualified depending on his level of narcissism) with the training, laws and knowledge that you must have to be a police officer. This video just proves that he's anything but a good guy. He's a self-preserving liar and anything he says going forward can't be trusted.
This. You hit the nail on the head.
This is so delusional lol
The level of training? They're barely trained. They don't even know the law half the time.
This cop is pretty good. Minimize the crime to get a confession lol
Can’t believe people still try to impersonate police officers 🤦🏼
It’s such a common tactic. I can’t remember the specific name of the tactic right now. But if you watch those channels that break down interrogation vids like “Jim can’t swim” they often mention it
Crazy thing but having red and blue lights on a your car is Not impersonating a police officer. Because a Vehicle can not personate a police officer, it's actually a vehicle code lighting Violation in every state.
Impersonating police officer is
( A person) who falsely pretends to be a peace officer and performs an (act) in that pretended capacity commits impersonating a peace officer/telling someone he is a police officer.
So even if he is using the to lights to move cars out the way but never actually pulled them over the most he will get is a ticket for unauthorized use of red in blue lights aka a vehicle code Violation.
I did a ride alone about 4 years ago with my local police department and during the ride along there was a guy that had red and blue lights on his windshield. He was at a park and ride. The officer I was riding with pulled behind him and went to go talk to him after about a hour or so of all the officers talking about chargers they were reading the laws on Impersonating a police officer.
Red and blue lights was not on the list
It has to be a Combination of things Combined for it to be considered police impersonating.
They had send him off with a fix it ticket which is crazy asf.

Jeremy DeWitt
Guy LIES and at the end hands over the light bar with a slap on the wrist?
He’s a felony in NY🤷🏻♂️
Impersonating law enforcement should be a felony. Then he complains that it’ll be hard to show up to court. They should’ve arrested him.
Can't arrest someone without proper proof. They would either have to have it on camera or witness it their selves in order to make an arrest.
It is 100% a FELONY. The Officer attempted to get the guy to fess up, but without proof, he couldn’t arrest him. It would be tough to hold up in court. It’s the officer’s discretion to just let it go.
If he was a different color he would have been cuffed and thrown in jail in a second. Can't believe this guy walked free with a ticket. Had physical evidence and all.
And if he doesn't show in court on a criminal summons they'll put a warrant out for him, which will get him arrested the next time a cop pulls him over, and likely found guilty of this pending charge.
Yes agree, giving him a court appearance summons was best. Plus they got the actual light device from him as evidence. So he better show up or it is jail for him. 😂😂😂
Disgusting to impersonate a cop.
Using the 1 cops footage, with the other cop's audio is some top tier editing that i can appreciate.
Truth… big facts.
'Top tier editing' 😂
Simplest shit ever.
@@J.F.-yy8ji Maybe not hard to do, but I agree gives top tier results, among bodycams on youtube.
“We’re from Austin Texas” “We’re from Austin Texas” translation: “We just moved to TX from CA and we swear we’re Texans. Look at my cute cowboy hat”
Actually surprised anyone would ever want to admit that they're from Texas. If God were to ever give the world an enema he'd stick it in Texas.
Hard to believe that with 4 cops there, one of them wasn't an outrageous tyrant. He should have been charged.
Liars on parade. Surprised they didn’t arrest this fool. He’ll likely do it again SMHH
How could they? You They did not have enough evidence to get a warrant to search his vehicle for the lights. All they had was one person saying it happened and him denying it. For all we know the former cop made it up, you are innocent until proven guilty remember.

Bless this former cop for going with his gut and calling the cops! He seems like a genuine guy. I will never get how people think they can impersonate a cop and think it’s okay! Weirdos man and he has family with him??? Unbelievable!
Thank you for the compliment. I am actually pretty genuine. Haha I don’t want people like this pulling over people who don’t know the signs of a fake. Lots of college kids on that highway. I’d hate for an elderly couple or anyone for that matter to be a victim of this.
He's not a very good communicator for being a former cop "bro."
@@TheFrenchPug - What are you talking about? He communicated fine.
It's funny, the former cop confesses to speeding and using his phone while driving within the first minute.
@@FridayBeers12there really wasn’t anything going, I wasn’t illegally making calls. It was hands free. It’s a 2006 and it was archaic but hands free. I wasn’t speeding I had my cruise set 2mph over and just putting along with everyone else. I said I was making calls and after this guy passed me several times I got annoyed and sped off. If they wanted to give me a ticket I wouldn’t care but a misdemeanor out of the officers presence can’t be cited. He flashed red and blues, I pulled over and he sped off… my gut told me he wasn’t a cop. I called. The video you see is the 3rd or 4th officer so I wasn’t trying to be professional and factual it was pretty casual by that point.
My husband and I had this happen to us about a month ago. Some idiot with Texas plates and lights tried to pull us over in our town. Unbeknownst to him, my husband is a retired cop and called 911. He followed us then got spooked so we followed him back until he pulled into a bank parking lot and the real cops arrested him and impounded his car. He just recently bonded out but he was in there for about a month. 🌸 moral of the story don’t try to be a fake cop in a small town in Colorado with Texas plates 😂
On behalf of Texans, I apologize for that dum dum. We all aren't crazy.

Those officers were being pretty nice considering child endangerment , impersonating , obstructing, they could have really stuck it to him.
that's the biggest "get out of jail" free card I've ever seen. pretty nice is an understatement lol
They had no proof, hearsay is not enough to give someone a bunch of ticket or arrest them
@@wD-io9ndCops don't require "proof" at the scene, and "hearsay" is a term that only has relevance in court. Cops obtain witness statements, and those are perfectly acceptable to establish probable cause that a crime was committed. If the prosecutor were to decide to pursue charges, the former cop could testify as a witness, and that's not hearsay. People who think cops need some kind of definitive "proof" to make an arrest or file charges just don't understand the law.
@@-HeyLyd-especially to make an arrest. They do way worse with less evidence and sort it out later.
@@bch5513Yeah, too many people don't understand the difference between proof and evidence; and, even for purposes of court, witness statements/testimony *_is_* evidence. (Never mind that the guy handed over the light device at the end, so the witness statement has now been corroborated.)
Should have been arrested for a felony and taken to jail. He is a danger to society and obviously his family. What does he do when his wife isn’t with him. Both man and woman lied in front of their children. Great examples!!

It's a sad time when you almost have to call 911 when you get pulled over to make sure the person that pulled you over is an actual cop.

How the heck he didn't get arrested? Pretending to be a police officer is a FELONY.

Based on the comments a lot of people didn't watch the full video. The driver hands over the light-bar at the 14:00 minute mark.
Or they did watch the whole thing but have the attention span of a gnat and zoned out.
He hands it over at the 14:13 mark
But he said it was a Radar Detector. Hahahahaa / Just Kidding
Cops in texas wear those bad Walmart straw hats but never one that looks like it lost a fight with a weedeater
How he got out of going to jail immediately is beyond me. Maybe before he lied, but definitely not after.
By shutting his damn mouth
the benefits of having a family. cops are low iq and value family its that simple.
Good job officer on talking into confessing. You really had nothing if he chose to remain silent.

For everyone confused. This happened in San Juan County New Mexico. The idiot impersonator lives in Texas. If he did this in Texas he would be in jail, as its a 3rd degree felony here. New mexico lawmakers have basically neutered their cops in recent years. They pretty much have to be on a federal task force to get anything done there.
Yes, have heard this about Liberal New Mexico. Would hate to be a cop there.
The only one confused is you. The reason it wasn't a felony is because he didn't pull anyone over. But don't let facts keep you from bringing politics where it doesn't belong.
Yes, like the homeless guy, 51, in a wheelchair who had a knife for self-protection (I would) outside a Wal Mart in Tucson. He would not give up the knife.
So the cop put NINE 9mm bullets in the guy's back at point blank range.
Then when the guy crumpled to the floor, two cops ran up and
handcuffed him ASAP. Heroes. Remember Uvalde.
@@juliebraden6911 You have no idea what you're actually talking about. The victim slowed down and pulled over. That fulfills the requirements of putting someone under your pretend authority. IE... pulling someone over. That's why he was charged with Impersonating a police officer. Which in new Mexico is not a felony... because of their politics.
Yep, democrats poison everything they touch.
New Mexico has a lot of issues: Rampant DWI, excessive speeding is a parking ticket and impersonating a cop is a misdemeanor.

Those kids are growing up with the same lack of morals he has. Brilliant father there.
Anyone impersonating law enforcement is a danger to everybody...because you have no idea what they have in mind. At all. Should be more than a misdemeanor for sure.
Ohhhhh that's a great catch. I never noticed that before
If the guy and his family had exercised their 5th amendment right to remain silent, this would have gone nowhere.
Doesn’t mean I wish he had gotten away with it. But if you’re gonna go out and do illegal stuff, know your damned rights.
They would have got a search warrant and thrown the book at him. I have no idea why they went so easy on him after he lied his ass off.

"He's literally hauling down the road so we got around him". Yup, that made so much sense.

I love how serious they implied impersonating an officer is , than follow up by not arresting him and to just let him go 😂
They wanted to, they looked it up and found it was not a felony in their county. They talked about it in the huddle
*In some (most?) states or countries the driver would be arrested, charged with a crime, and in some cases his car would be seized.*
*How is it not a felony???*
Because courts in most states have ruled repeatedly in police impersonator criminal cases that someone has to actually falsely identify themselves as being a LEO in order to commit police impersonation. You could have a Erica police badge on and a blue windbreaker that says police on the back but if you do not actually tell someone you are an officer or attempt any action an officer would make, ( like ordering someone to pull over, or threaten to arrest someone ) then it actually isn't actual impersonation. If you remember Jeremy Dewitte he dressed up like an actual cop and had motorcycles and vehicles that looked just like police patrol units yet the only reason he was charged with impersonation was because he was on his own go pro telling drivers to pull over. You can actually dress up like a cop and it's protected under the 1st amendment. The same thing happened with stolen valor and The Supreme Court overturn d the law that made it a crime for people that never served in the military to wear uniforms or medals they never earned as The Supreme Court ruled that violates the free speech 1st amendment of people. The Stolen Valor law was changed so that now it's only illegal to lie about military service or medals earned if you are trying to personally or financially benefit yourself By lying about having served. He definitely will get convicted of unauthorized use of emergency vehicle lights however. And I'm not defending the idiot. He should get charged for police impersonation. Unfortunately the Supreme court ruled that under freedom of speech people can make themselves appear to be whatever or whomever they want as long as they don't commit certain specific actions.

This was the third officer to come talk to me. This wasn’t the initial contact. This is literally video of me and the third officer shooting the breeze while the dust is settling.

How did I miss the part were he finally admitted it?
Because they basically bully you into admitting that you committed a crime since they are powerless because they didn't witness the crime
That's what I was wondering too...
I didn’t see that part either.
Parents setting a stellar example for their kids
From what I've seen, driving something that looks like a police vehicle is a real pain in the neck.
Years ago, the local city retired a police car and turned it over to the fire department. It still looked like a police car after the decals were removed. One of the firefighters told me about having to drive it to a training school one day. People would see it as a police car and would slow down and clog the interstate around him. They really hated driving that thing.
Yep. I bought a Tahoe at police auction, and any time I take it out people do about 45 (in a 55) and make things more dangerous. Even if I was a cop I ain't going after you for doing 65 on US-70 everyone does it
You can see the three prong marks where the lights were 😂😂😂 Also, this police crew was so awesome in how they were bouncing ideas around and working together to come up with a solution. Really a great crew.

thank God for the yellow shirt guy and guys like him.
They didn’t arrest him because they weren’t sure WHAT THE HELL THEY HAD !!
Clearly you had 4 deputies, no one in charge, no one knew what the crime was…..
Yep, he could have and should have been arrested.
Embarrassing.
W A I A
It’s a shame they didn’t have you there to clarify for them!😂
Arrested for what?
@@news_internationale2035 Unlawful use of Emergency Lights for starters.
No they are smarter than you and actually do the job. You just sit behind a computer screen and play Monday morning quarterback!
The former cop is bored out of his mind and definitely needs to get back into law enforcement to stay busy...
In the mean time we have a fake president impersonating a president. 😂

Every time I see what looks like a "civilian" car with lights that look like they're supposed to be on a cop car I remember there was a guy in Oregon who had what looked like an "under cover" car with lights that he would pull people over with.
He was a rapist and serial killer and targeted women he could see were alone and usually going home. Oregon has a LOT of open space between towns and he took advantage of that.
I believe I actually saw that car on my way home one afternoon. It looked like someone had been pulled over with the light on the hood of the car that was parked behind it. The "cop" light was still on. The car with the light had an open driver door and the car in front of it had the passenger door open but no one was around.
When I got to the first "anything" I saw I called the Highway Patrol and the Sheriff's to let them know what I saw because there had been an announcement about it on the radio just about a week before.
Listening to these cops trying to figure out what this guy could be using those lights for makes me think that they're just too young to remember that and probably weren't told about that in their training.
Had it if actually been for speeding and clearing traffic, it’s laughable down the road. But putting a brush guard and going that far tells me this guy would absolutely use this in an opportunistic way to serve him in many other ways. He’s a freak
He gave the initial officer the run around and his wife also lied. Driver should've been arrested and processed.
Law enforcement from the pass side was absolutely perfect. Destroyed the dude's argument in a microsecond using his same words. Excellent police work there. He explained the probable cause very clearly. Great police work, San Juan PD.
I wish people like this would stop & think about the risk they are taking with their children’s safety. It’s mind boggling to me that people could be selfish & break laws, intentionally, with their children present. I hope their children grow up to be better people than their parents.
I wish they would've shown the part where he admitted he was lying & had the lightbar! Why did they cut that out?
I didn’t see that part either.
I love the way the cop was persistent and so calm and understanding. He got the imposter to hand the suction cup lights to him. Cool dude!!!
Should've been arrested. A man impersonating a police officer pulled my wife over on a dark road at 1:30 in the morning. The guy totally creeped her out. He still hasn't been caught yet.
Ex cop in the Lexus is Definitely in the Weed Dispensery business!
In the infamous words of bugs bunny, what a maroon.
Thank you officer 👮♀️
We need yall out there
It's always nice seeing the cops do their little huddle, saying to each other, "What can we charge this guy for?"
Your would rather they didn't confer and proceed cautiously to make sure they are pressing charges that are legit and going to stick? You would rather a bunch of cowboys who just get emotional and start sticking charges on everyone?
There always had to be at least one in the comments,v no matter how guilty the scumbag is getting busted, who had to make it sound like the police are victimizing him. Guess we know what kind of life you have chosen to lead.
@@justforever96 I'm not in the slightest suggesting that the police are victimizing the person. I'm just making commentary on the fact police will try to come up with any reason they can to put people behind bars, the majority of the time. In this case, they didn't want to deal with displacing the wife and kids, so they made a laziness-based choice to let the guy go.
Would I rather they make sure they press charges which are legitimate? Yes. Is that what normally happens in these huddles? No. Normally they are looking for anything under the sun to charge someone with.
There always has to be one weak-minded cop sympathizer in the comments who presumes normal people talking about normal things are somehow expressing an agenda. We know how boring your life must be.
@@justforever96 I will say, though - your taste in classical music is pretty nice. A bit back-and-forth from what I prefer, which is higher BPM and more string, less brass/woodwind, less choral most often.
For all of those wondering why he wasn't arrested, police here know what happened will not likely cause the violator to abscond. He has an address and such. He may have no prior criminal history as well.
