- A Los Angeles County Sheriff's traffic stop, allegedly conducted for excessive window tinting, led to a fishing expedition that stranded an innocent passenger at night without her phone, wallet, keys or transportation. But cop watchers @laurasharkcw @tomzebra and @jodiekatmedia appeared on the scene to hold LASD accountable and to assist the stranded passenger. This week on the Police Accountability Report, hosts Taya Graham and Stephen Janis speak with Tom and Laura about the encounter and discuss what this case reveals about the phenomenon of over policing and the incentive structure behind the questionable allocation of police time and resources.

Are you able to do a story on Christopher Ruff and what he is going through and the amount of harassment by police and judges etc
@@RoseTrace10 - I'm sure PAR would look into Chris's situation. Taya asked him if he wanted to talk to her a couple of weeks back when he came into the live chat. I did not see him respond to her but I miss a lot. Maybe he emailed them? If not, he should. His situation is very messed up to say the least!!

qualified immunity must end for these people
You mean, animals; cause animals act on instinct; not reason!
I have a serious question for you.
What do you think that "Qualified Immunity" actually is? And how do you think it works?
I'm not trying to argue or fight, or anything like that. It's just that I see "Abolish Qualified Immunity!" and "Qualified Immunity must end", on every single video that ever gets made showing police wrongdoing and/or corruption.
That makes me curious, and so I ask with genuine sincerity....What do you think Qualified Immunity is, and how do you think it works?
@@mattjack3983 if your asking that question; then my friend you really don't have a problem with tyranny and oppression '
google it if you are confused@@mattjack3983
@@hmz6535 Yes, I absolutely do have a problem with tyranny and oppression. But that has nothing to do with my question or why I'm asking it. So maybe I should ask you, since the OP hasn't responded or answered.
What do you think that Qualified Immunity is, and how do you think it actually works?
Whether it's their own cameras or anyone else's at the scene, de-activating any recording device should get cops fired and prosecuted.
Agree I thought all cops had cameras and where supposed to keep them on . I think we all should know our rights and always have a phone with us to video record .
💯
@@angh2008 better yet, live-stream or at least have some kind of remote backup in case the cops try to erase your recording.
@@angh2008 AFAIK, all we need on this one is a prosecutor with the balls to arrest a cop for destruction of evidence.
It’s a violation of the 1st
A COP giving a FALSE IDENTIFYING NUMBER SHOULD BE A FELONY!!!
Not only is this unconstitutional, it’s also illegal behavior on their behalf. Then they openly question why the public doesn’t support the police.
Cop watchers save lives and are true heroes
I am so glad that we have been able to highlight their work over the years. I guess eventually mainstream media will catch on...😅
@@therealnewsTaya you should know better. Mainstream media will never catch on or better said they have caught on and just don't give a flying f#ck.
I Love your show💛❤💛We need more Cop Watchers on the street(s).
I am a former Military Policeman & Military Police Investtigator from the 1974-1975. I have personally witnessed inappropriate Fayetteville,NC Police Department behavior. I was assigned to walk along with 2-Fayetteville Police Officers in the 500 Block of Haystreet. This area of downtown Fayetteville consisted of top less bars w/Go-Go dancers. Prostitutes on the streets overt and covert.This special liaison of having a Uniformed MP from the Ft Bragg Provost Marshallsw/the Fayetteville Police was due to so many arrests of Army soldiers. This particular night one of the Police Officers detained a young man behind a building and shocked him w/ a Special kind of Baton. This Baton had 2-silver probes extending from the end. The guy was shocked multiple times w/this Cattle Prod type baton. Then Officer told "don't let me catch you downtown Fayetteville again". I was in shock vs scared vs paralyzed by fear to say anything🥺😨. I went on to become a MP Investigator. Even in that role, (I now had more Formal Training & Clout) I would not let certain Military Police take people we apprehended to the bathroom. I did not want these guys beaten and have to go to Womach Army Hospital before their Company Commander would come and sign them out of the MP Station Jail vs Holding Tank. It is crying shame the Abuse and Intimidation that some people have suffered at the hands of Law Enforcement personnel. God Above In Heaven Is Watching.I 👏 applaud the Cop Watchers here on earth. Keep up the good work 😊
@@therealnews Just the mear fact that it hasn't is super fishy to me🤔🤨
Maybe defunding these clowns wasn't such a bad idea...
Qualified immunity has to be ended so we can sue these officers individually and charge them criminally for kidnapping and various other crimes
Would you care about anything if you knew you could never be held responsible for any of it? Further, no matter what you do to those you are sworn to protect, no one can touch you? That's the deal we have given our police and expected a positive outcome. Live and learn.
Qualified immunity should not go away. If viewers read their state legislation they would understand it better. So if an officer acts out of the color of the law. QI does not protect them. It's the department heads and police unions. Our state reps are the only one that can make change. Contact your state reps first.
@@4DCALSyeah and how's that working out so far. The police don't care how many times you going to that representative. LOL
@@4DCALSIf citizens are told that ignorance of the law is no excuse then police should be held to the same standard. Police are charged with enforcing the law so a good officer should make it their duty to be well-versed in the law and specifically in the rights of individuals. Qualified immunity holds them to a lower standard than the average citizen and that is NOT okay. If they don't like the job and the risk then they are free to quit. Government cannot have more rights than citizens.
@@charlesw6199 It seems that you have no idea of what qualified immunity actually is and are drinking the liberal kool aid. QI states that if the officer is acting within department policy, then he cannot be held personally liable. However, that does not mean the jurisdiction cannot be sued if the policy in question is unlawful. If the officer does something wrong/unlawful which is outside of policy, he can then be charged/prosecuted/sued.
Officer, why did you pull me over?
Because your window tint is as dark as ours.
The corruption, excessive force, rights violations, over policing, etc... are so rampant & blatant it's difficult for me to comprehend the reasoning of those who criticize & condemn "cop watchers" &/ "auditors".
1. Abolish qualified immunity,
2. Abolish civil asset forfeiture,
3. Abolish internal investigations without oversight,
4. Make it a crime to mute or turn off cop body cameras.
And make it easy and cheap for citizens to get evidence.
All excellent prescriptions! Thank you so much for your comment! -taya
Could I use this comment for my PAR comment of the week? -taya
@@therealnews You certainly may.
Cops in America have stolen $62 Billion from people over 20 years. Civil asset theft.
And Americans don't know.
Thank you for what you do !
Yes!
Require officers to supply self paid liability insurance as a condition of employment. No insurance = no work or pay.
But they left the lady passenger stranded beside the road and TOOK HER WALLET, PHONE AND KEYS. She had no way to get home, and no way to get inside even if she does. That's outrageous.
This is done everyday in L.A. County and beyond. These new police officers are thugs, thieves, liars, criminals, they are involved in so much corruption its a disgrace. But all of what they're doing is going to backfiring against them.
@@chuck-ep2yr Just be ready to call the FBI whenever you get pulled over lol.
yes they had no cause to take her stuff she wasnt arrested
@@chuck-ep2yrI would take that bet any day. I don't think it would take them more than 10 minutes to find your keys, unless they were with someone else, then maybe an hour. I'm just guessing but I think you're underestimating their capabilities and unlimited access to resources known and unknown.
Isn't that the definition of "HIGHWAY ROBBERY?"
This is disgusting and it makes me sick, they do it everyday totally expecting to get away with it.
They git to keep the money and the cars that they. Confiscate. Government theft
They DO get away with it. Most people do nothing.
Report them asap!!
This sheriff should be investigated and held accountable for the incompetence and childish behavior and deviant procedures that are putting people in danger .
They do not care about ruining your life. The citizens are the enemy of the police.
The POLICE are the enemy of the PEOPLE!!!
Yes. Without our taxes they would be cleaning toilets in old folks homes.
How sad how true.
no...we are their PREY
@@ssnerd583 Exactly, it's a thoroughly predatory institution.
Of course the police understand the impact of an arrest. That is the intention cause harm
That’s why if you try to yoke them up and take them back to your dungeon they don’t hesitate to use lethal force. We must match force with equal opposing force.
@@kennybachman35Are you saying if you were being placed under arrest, you believe the best option is to resist, try and arrest them and lock them in your house?
@@EremEdition no i was thinking more like running up in their house while they’re sleeping. It’s called a “no knock warrant”. Citizens arrest and whatnot. Flashbangs, battering rams, full on military insertion, maybe drive a truck through their living room, these are heavily armed and violent criminal organizations.
In fact, they understand it so well it is not a surprise when they see the continued erosion of that life following conviction. Loss of job, no chance at getting another, cast out of family units, unable to obtain any government benefits (they paid into), disenfranchised from society. Then crime is the only option if they are going to eat. The cops just created another career criminal.
I can’t believe they refused to give the young lady her wallet and phone. That should and hopefully is a crime! Lock those cops up!
Cops feed off power and control, gives them BIG ego's.
It blow my mind that the bad cops can sleep at night get up and do it all over again .
one time ago when people were stating police were lying,no one believes,now cam is proving,the people were right.
The only who didn't believe at first was white people. Black people and coloured people always knew.
They have been saying this for years and years, but u know cops are holier than though
Can you imagine how many people have been falsely imprisoned, beaten, and killed because of corrupt ‘peace officer’s over the years. Surely as long as human history. And even now through the digital recording age.
The only way to stop these thugs with badges is to KEEP EXPOSING THEIR ABUSES!
There is another way.
With videos
Or stop watching CNN
@@EssexAggiegrad2011 any main stream channel. they all cater to whatever the police tell them because they get something to publish quicker. they have all shown that they don't care what the truth is.
@@7citieskid410 LOL
The scary part is one of the cops was alone checking the car; he could have done many things to get a conviction.
That is sad
Tom Zebra is an absolute hero!!
If you exit the vehicle, lock the car!!! Then they have to take your keys off you AND illegally search your vehicle...don't stop recording, your saving lives!!!!❤❤❤
They don't let you do that.
The pigs open the doors.
The pigs slap, snatch and grab any device out the hands to prevent any recording.
The pigs grab any wrist or arm.
The pigs grab both wrists while standing inside the door to prevent it from being closed while forcing the body out.
The pigs slap the dash cams in order to not allow them to record anything.
The pigs do not care about policy, procedure, code, case law, or any limitation that prevents the stop, the arrest, the excessive force, the search, the theft, the tow, the complaint, and the lawsuit.
You have no rights when ANY pig is near.
One has to ask if any of this is clear yet? If there is any misunderstanding that pig safety is supreme over all others at all times, one needs to research the plethora of videos documenting these facts.
They will open the doors and steal your keys seen a few do it.

1000% true. Preach it!
My life was ruined by a bogus arrest after my ex “swatted” me. Lost my job, my nursing license (42 years), my friends and my self respect. I am drenched in resentment and hatred for a system that betrayed me.
damn !
Sounds like you had a horrible lawyer. I'm not a lawyer. But when I was young had more experience in court than I'd like to admit. I even know how to fight that. You can sue her civilly for monetary loss. Talk to a lawyer
Your STORY SHOULD BE HERD NATION WIDE. CAN THAT HAPPEN. EXCUSE MY IGNORANCE. SOUNDS LIKE NAZZI GERMANY. NOT AMERICAN. IM OUTRAGE THAT HAPPENED TO YOU. CAN YOU SUE. HAVE TALKED TOO A CIVIL RIGHTS ATTORNEY. THINK TOU NEED TOO. SOUNDS LIKE 60 minutes Story. Maybe CALL THEM.
That’s DISTURBING. I FELT YOUR STRESS. JUST READING THAT.
I went to prison and didn't lose my nursing license so.i question the validity of a swat leading to you losing your license but being innocent of a crime. I need proof of this. Nursing license has nothing to do with police or the courts. It's a whole separate body with different evidentiary procedures and it's not just easy breezy to lose those because we have sht nurses all over who get reported and nothing happens to them for even assaulting patients and killing them most times.
Thank you Tom and Laura, the host, and everyone else for participating in this and sharing.
If the police treated a governor or mayor or a billionaire like this they would be unemployed.
I agree, but those higher ups are corupt too.
The Police Dont give hoot about your rights.
No they don't. Consider the reason they randomly pull people over instead of going after felony crimes is two fold. First felony arrests don't create much revenue for the city. Taking a traffic stop and inventing a multitude of charges creates fines. Fines paid to the city. Arresting felons often costs the police department. Chases through the city, property damage, damaged vehicles, all this serious crime, wear and tear on police equipment this will be their argument for more money in their budget next year.
will - Yes. Clearly cops don't care about an American's rights.
They even enjoy demonstrating that THEY are the power.
Come on! Don't you know that the area around every cop, wherever they go, is a rights-free zone so they can do their jobs and be our heroes? Oh praise be to cops, who we must worship! /sarcasm
But you're right, they don't, these street lords of brutality and domination. They are rewarded for this BS they pull, unless they do a Chauvin. Sometimes, not even then.
So true! 💯
They pulled him out of the car, search the car, patted him down and then took off? And supposedly smelled marijuana from a closed car? Lawsuit big-time!
If I was on a jury and it was shown that officers turned off their body cams and or microphones, I would rule for the defendant automatically!
They didn’t take off, they confiscated the car, found legal reason to make the arrest! The marijuana wasn’t the reason for the stop! Window tint was. The marijuana usage in the car was the reason for the arrest and search!
In some places it is very difficult a civil rights lawyer

You're being extorted and shaken down for your own oppression.
Police ABSOLUTELY know the devastation they cause a person by tying them up in the impossible red tape of the legal system. That's exactly why they do it. It's almost like a sport to them. They don't care because they never are reprimanded in any way for it when the arrests and charges are proven false, and it is a "needle in the haystack" chance that it or nothing even remotely similar will ever happen to them. The heartless manner in which the watch commander dealt with the lady in this situation is proof positive. One can only dream that things will change in "law enforcement." They're really only a legalized mafia whose code is harassment, violation, terrorism, extortion, and cover up. All the while, our legislative branch is backing it with its full weight.
Imagine being former law enforcement and having cops like this pull this shit on them, and than they become aware of this fact and still double down with attempts to cover up the illegal acts.
They stopped him for tint not reckless driving! They were dead wrong for taking him to jail and leaving his passenger stranded. I hope he sues and they get fired! We are tired of this

Imagining all the things and violations that were done, hidden, and lied about BEFORE video evidence is extremely disturbing. It's even more disturbing because cops are doing this now, 11:08 KNOWING and not caring that there is video evidence everywhere.

@@mikeswanson6145 You are assuming that they are actually trying to stop drunk drivers. The cops stopped to harass them. When they asserted their rights and started recording them they punished them by taking away their phone to stop them from recording, taking away their car, and taking away their freedom.
That happened over 25 years ago
This man and woman who were VIOLATED and ABUSED by the LA County Sheriff's Department NEED TO CONTACT THE 'INSTITUTE FOR JUSTICE' and get the HELP they need with their case ASAP...and FREE of charge to them! It was a TRAFFIC STOP and the cops turned it INTO everything BUT just a lawful simple traffic stop. Institute For Justice...memorize it, look it up online and and SHARE the information with everyone who's been VIOLATED by law enforcement! It could literally SAVE someone and HOLD some cops ACCOUNTABLE in court!
Its there improper training and technique s. .. is base source.

And that PARAMILITARY BULLSH****. Its TYRANNICAL. and ABUSIVE. .
I had a Hillsborough County Sheriff tell me that I didn't have a right to an attorney because I wasn't under arrest during a bogus traffic stop. The officer was twisting my words around (I was the passenger in the vehicle, too) so I told him I'm not answering any more questions without my attorney because he was twisting my words around and he told me I didn't have the right to a lawyer and even asked his partner isn't that right and his partner said yep... I was completely blown away but not as much as I was when I spoke with their corporal a few days later and when I told him they said that he basically said "ok, what's your point?" WHAAAATTTTT???
Here in Chicago our tax dollars pay for an average of $70M PER YEAR in payouts for lawsuits against the police. The city law department that handles the lawsuits employs 300 lawyers, 100 support staff and has a budget of $34M per year. Just think of all the good things that money could be spent on instead.
Great work on the video! 💪
That's truly horrific..
This is infuriating. They've endangered the passenger's life by leaving her stranded in the middle of the night with no phone, none of her belongings, and no way to get home. Real class. 🙄
She needs to file a lawsuit. That was intentional endangerment.
That’s happened to me before too! Stupid cops pulled me over accused me of being someone else even though I had my license and registration. They took a plate off of my car and left me there.
I then proceeded to take the other plate from the front bumper and put it on the back and drove to where I was going.
Assholes! Pulled me over for nothing! Because they thought I was someone else then left me there on the side of the road in the middle of winter. I guess I was lucky that they didn’t arrest me for impersonating myself. Lol!!
@@elizabethvandeventer5487too bad Christopher Dorner isn’t still alive to take care of them.
LAPD did the same thing to a woman around 5-10 years ago, and she wound up being raped and murdered by someone later in the night. Her rape and murder is still unsolved. Cops don't give a shit about passengers in circumstances where the driver was arrested.
I've had it happen a few times before cellphones were common and I'm a white guy. My friend, who was my designated driver was arrested for DWI despite being blowing a 0.00%, while I was probably over the limit to drive. The cops gave me the option to either find my own way home or be arrested. Luckily, I knew where I was, but unfortunately I was about 5-6 miles away from my home or a payphone.

Some cops in IN, went after a guy riding his bike, at night, without a light. But there were plenty of lights for him to see and be seen. The guy was tackled by a cop and charged for the cop hurting his shoulder, tackling him, when he didn't stop, because he believed they were harassing him. After arresting and searching him, and finding no warrant or drugs, they asked why he didn't stop. He said he didn't trust them. He was right!
you can definitely safetly ride a bike at night, going 1-3 mph with street lights is very safe and serene. I've been harassed by cops countless times throughout my life, abused, and intimated. Cops are terrorists and I do have some PTSD from my interactions with them. Everytime I leave my house at night I get an anxiety attack thinking about cops fucking my life up.
okay!!! yea i saw tht too

She could've been a victim of a crime stuck out at night without a phone and her wallet. The cops deliberately out her at risk. This is what they call "protect and serve"? This is disgusting and disturbing. It makes me sick!
The Police only "protect and serve" themselves.
Me too , BARRRFF. BARRFF.
They intentionally torture citizens using the arrest process. 'Oh, gee, you were inconvenienced? Well, I guess you shouldn't be making poor choices about the company you keep...' That's how they think and what they say. They are a criminal gang of thugs.
They did that hoping she would get run over or murdered. It's a sick game they play. They also wait until 1-2am to release jail inmates that beat their charge.
They're not public safety officials. They're LAW ENFORCEMENT officers.
This abuse will not going to stop until the police chiefs and prosecutors are holding accountable for not filing charges against these criminals.
I think you're right. The onus does actually lie with the city council and the police chief for allowing this insult to our rights to continue.
Unfortunately we as a population don't have the balls to use our second amendment as our forefathers intended.
Back in the old west when everybody had a gun on their hip this shit wouldn't fly.
The buck stops with the city/county fathers that hire these criminals to inforce their idea of the law!
Pigs don’t ever hold themselves accountable, they think their above the law. WE THE PEOPLE need to start holding them accountable.ACAB 1312
And that will never happen because the Freemasons that oversee the police will never allow the chiefs and prosecutors to be charged. The country would collapse. The entire system would implode, which it rightly should. Things will only change once Freemasonry is exposed and destroyed.
This is great, love what they do and think it helps people
I hope that the car owner shows that video to the court and sues the police
We need to be able to charge officers for crimes. They commit against Innocent citizens that are not breaking the law We need to be able to put them in prison more often, and then it would stop
The cops do this for two reasons. 1) Laziness. As long as they are tied up with one of these stops, they don’t have to do anything else, and 2) Fear. They can spend maximum time on a stop like this where they know they are in no danger of being called to a real crime where they would surely be exposed as inept. This is their daily routine which is designed to keep them from doing their real job.

We need more cop watcher's 😮
Honestly, I think all of this would get fixed REAL fast if settlements were paid out by the police union.
"If a union protects them, the union should be liable for their damages."
Yep. It's why they pay Union Dues. That money should be spent for the fines. Also their pension.
Has it ever occurred anyone that the towing companies that charge storage fees are giving kickbacks to the sheriffs department?
YES! Good point. I live in SoCal and in my city at least, the police now have implemented a fee to release vehicle when towed. That's on top of all the many many many other charges & fees you will face from the tow company, courts, & dmv.
My son had his camper strolen and the cops found it, impounded it but didn't notify my son for over a week. So then he had to pay impound fees to get it back. He got Fk'd twice by the theifs and then the tow company. They had his info, could have notified him day one. The cost was so damn high, he lost his trailor because he couldn't afford the towing cost. Victimized twice and not a damn thing he could do about it. How is that legal?
That's been happening for many many years
I SAID THERE WAS UNETHICAL THEFT OF UNDESERVED REVENUE 4 STATE!!!
Your right
According to the POT Brothers at Law, California courts have ruled that since MJ is legal there, smell alone is not reasonable suspicion.
That's why they used the smell as a pretext to accuse Darius of driving under the influence.
We need cop watchers in every city now
That’s what I’m saying
GOD BLESS🙏 THE 2 OF YOU GOING OUT DOING THIS WORK, WE NEED MORE OUT THERE.🇬🇧
The police don’t need to know how traumatic these laws are, the legislators need to know! They are the ones who make these penalties against the citizenry.
they know already
Laws upheld under truth in itself is ok
Lying to bend laws is the issue
The law is written to extort you.
another great report by TAYA ans STEPHEN !! over policing is a sadistic stain on society
I love how you show that the female cop kept saying, “we’re not going to search the car”, then showing video of other cops searching the car WHILE she was saying they’re not going to search the car.
Get this story to the local news!!
Also, tell the mayor and California's attorney general. This is so illegal. Someone needs to step in and stop it!
We have to get the Democrats out of the Governor's office and the State legislature OFFICE and Mayor's office and City's board. Then we need to hire a SHERIFF that protects its CITIZENS from the abuse of its Deputies and a Police chief that protects its CITIZENS from the abuse of their Police officers and when a complaint is filed against it's DEPUTIES and or it's Police officers need to take it as a very serious and investigate it as a crime against one or more citizens even someone traveling through it's state, county and cities
Sure 😊, and but lying 🤥 cheating Republicans in, right 👉, the cops should be ashamed of themselves and that nothing to do with politics
@@geraldabbott6186Republicans created the policing problem in America, not Democrats.. although theyre both currently guilty in adding to it.
At this very moment my heart feels like it will pound right out of my chest. There are not adequate words in our language that can possibly express the outrage this kind of action engenders.
Typical tyrants... love you and all in the community . Keep up the good work 💪👍
Their actions are so EVIL that they need to be taught a lesson.
@@chuck-ep2yr I say yes. It’s going to happen sooner than the police think.
@@chuck-ep2yr Please advise your "friend" that there are thousands of these videos on YT, never mind how many times these evil LEO actions are taking place unrecorded, this is about creating a solid deterrent to protect the citizens, as the Law closes ranks against innocent civilians. Far. Too. Often.
It's basically self-defence, at this point.
You cannot touch that department. Everyone knows the LA County Sheriff department is run by a Latino gang. This is well known.
This is outrageous, and those cops need to be FIRED IMMEDIATELY, and charged with crimes against humanity!
CRIMES AGAINST HUMANITY ?
Lol lol lol , CRIMES AGAINST HUMANITY ...LOL.
YEP THEY ARE THE MOST CORRUPT , THEY BUST DRUG DEALER AND PUT THE DRUG MONEY IN THEIR POCKETS ....ITS BEEN PROVEN . RESEARCH IT .ITS TRUE ...
@@VINCENT-sr4oz definition of crimes against humanity: a deliberate act, typically as part of a systematic campaign, that causes human suffering or death on a large scale.
You could consider the US is on a large scale and between the illegal arrests and the shooting of people that should have never been shot or killed. I would consider that definitely causes human suffering and possibly death. So I think the definition fits.
Predatory criminals violating Title 18 USC sec 242 & 241.
Prosecute them now !!!
Yeah right. Call the chief. 😂😂 It’s the humane thing 🤣🤣😂
Love Tom zebra and Laura Shark. Two of my long-time favorites. Thank you!
They should be fired & sued along with the Supervisors that allow these type of traffic stops to go this far.
The Cop Watchers actually likely saved both this young man and woman's life!!!
Police know exactly how 1 arrest can impact a life.
They definitely do, they choose not to care.
And they don't care
As a cop, i would shit my pants if Laura and Zebra showed up
As a cop, I would resign immediately.
“Examine the system that makes bad policing possible.”
His rights were violated, and any evidence found is INADMISSIBLE. He has lawsuit material.
I talked to a tow driver and he said the cops get apart of the money for car getting tow. I agree, we need more cop watchers. I hope they sue for searching their car
I enjoyed your show so much. Great content. You cover so many topics😊
My son is a lawyer, he originally worked for defense attorney. After doing that he switched to bankruptcy law, because " he said the deck was stacked against the public and defense attorneys " he told me " on his first day at work, the head attorney that was in charge told my son ( " 90% of all cases you will probably lose, so get use to it, or get out " ) so my son got out quick, he told me, the way laws are written and because of the police, the prosecutors and the judges, is a fail - fail - fail deal for the average citizen
You're right, the police officer who put a handcuffed arreste in the police car on train tracks which got run over by a train got 1 year of probation
How many times a day do citizens have their rights trampled by these tyrants in uniform? This kind of stuff breaks my heart!
Cops got some nerve, and people are not playing games anymore. STOP HARASSING PEOPLE FOR NO DIYAMN REASON.
I always remind people to film from their lock screens (iPhone) with the facial unlock feature disabled so they can’t access the footage and delete it.
Great channel!
The justice department (courts),law enforcement have been operating illegally unconstitutionally for the past 150 years
im sure more
The cop watchers are very kind to help in addition to the recording. It makes your blood boil to hear the couple repeatedly refuse a search, while cops deny that’s their goal, to only extract the occupants to search anyway. Then the callous retaliation of not allowing the released passenger her wallet, house keys, and phone. 😠
You are amazing cleaver dedicated and I appreciate what you do for us the public thanks for your dedication to get justice for everyone
Unlawful search is a lawsuit. Period. It’s your 4th amendment right to deny an unlawful search or seizure.
Tom is the OG cop watcher. I lived in the area of Gardena, and he was always active ... thanks for your hard work, Tom ....
😊
This is pure evil. I hope one day soon we the people all realize who our real enemy is and come together to fight these tyrants together.
They don’t even know how close we are to doing just that.
It is our right to stop this. Guaranteed right. They will say that we don’t but we do.
Generally speaking, conservatives usually approve or do not object to what we see in this video and most others. I guess because it's someone else getting railroaded(they can justify most scenarios) or its a "Democrat state, county, city".
The odd thing is they love that 2nd A, but they like the tyrants too. They seem to want civil war more than rebellion, too.
Pure corruption
Too many police. Too many less than idea officers too.
People are paranoid about crime, so they allow bad policing.
What is the way to shut this down?
Even all the way over here in Scotland we know just how scummy and corrupt the LA County Sheriff's Office is. I just cannot understand why this office of criminals and road pirates is allowed to operate and why more of them are not in jail.
Watching this from New Zealand with utmost respect and gratitude.... you are a blessing to humanity. Thank you for exposing the criminal actions of the greatest terrrrorist gand in operation.
🙏💖🙏
Qualified immunity is not the problem. The problem is the way the funding for law suits is handled. It is my suggestion that any lawsuits against the law enforcement establishment should be taken out of the their own budget and not out of public funds.
Meanwhile 20 real crimes of opportunity took place in a 1 mile radius of this illegal stop.
What an awful disgrace that we have officers of the law, sworn to do their job with honor and integrity, having to be monitored for illegal behaviour. This is disgusting.
California smell of marijuana is no longer a valid reason to search a car
Why is that cop little boy hanging in his car like that. Bad cops are disgusting, they make the good cops look bad, that's not the LAW!
It's a disgrace how the police treat citizens. And I think this man being black is also a reason. These lying bullys are not worth their uniforms. If the cops say suspicious, or I smell, you're 100% screwed.
Absolutely. I'm not black but I'm glad I got out of California and the US 30 years ago. The treatment of African Americans by "the system" there is heartbreaking. I don't deny crime by blacks, but it is a crime against humanity to arrest and harass people simply for being black.
I think you're right. They were targeted because they were black.
don't race-bait. That's what NPCs do. This issue is something that affects ALL citizens. The race doesn't matter. There are countless videos of instances happening where the oppressive officer is also black. When you needlessly race-bait you discredit the whole movement. You need to rise above it.
@@randalthor6872these are simple facts NOT " race baiting" STOP THE BS!
@@worldwide7657 So many people are so obsessed with race that they can't help but interject it into any and every conversation.
It's sad what the ruling-class have done to us. Divide and conquer with race as the wedge.
There should be medical evidence to convict someone of DUI......what a ridiculous country.
