I want to make it very clear that the officer screaming at us does not work for the Dekalb county Sheriffs dept. He’s from Putnam county. The Dekalb county police department has been very respectful and professional and actually has no involvement in any of this whatsoever. Please don’t leave a bad review for the Dekalb county sheriffs department, they’re the good guys!!!
You need to PIN ^^^this^^^ comment so it'll be UP TOP where everyone will see it!!! I was finally getting ready to stop scrolling but luckily saw this first...
It doesn’t matter. The guys that gave you a hard time did so because a cop told them to. It’s obvious they were looking hard for something. On a side note, we were pulled over on an Ohio lake one time because we were “swimming in the lake”. Evidently you are supposed to be in a swimming zone unless you are skiing or tubing. Sounded like a bunch of nonsense then and now.
MEANWHILE HUNTER BIDEN IS GUILTY OF LYING ON FEDERAL FORM 4473 AND THE DOJ HAS DONE NOTHING ABOUT IT. IT IS A TWO TIERED JUSTICE SYSTEM THAT PERSECUTES THE CITIZEN WHILE PROTECTING THE ELITE.
This has NOTHING to do with splashing water and EVERYTHING to do with pissing off that old man. When you get your lawyer you need to find out who he is and if he sent his cop buddies after you. This could be targeted harassment and worthy of suing.
that old man is never ever going to be safe on that lake again. People living near WhistlingDiesel who are Tennessee people will totally fuck with this guy for the rest of his life. I'm not saying they should, because even though I hate old sour people like that, I'd never harrass them.
the old fucker literally said in the video he was gonna call them and send them out lol. Those cops saw absolutely nothing, they were just going off the old mans word and issued tickets on that basis alone. this is gonna backfire big time on him/those cops now that it's being escalated and he's getting a lawyer
Are we certain the A-hole on the pontoon boot can be connected to the water cops? If so and a connection can be proven then I think whistlin ought to leverage that vast vault of RUclips cash to sue the living socks off the entire system top to bottom. Now I’ve gotten a couple citations for “splashing” on a PWC. It’s called speed in the proximity of another boat or watercraft and it’s a good law. There are some really gnarly wrecks out there of boats and PWC colliding.
Can we take a moment to thank that power tripping gentleman. He has provided WD with some quality content and his (indirect) monetary contribution is greatly appreciated...wit the bonus of showing how scummy he and his buddies are.
"I can't do anything about the law" says every bad police officer I've ever encountered. There's somthing called "officer discretion" could have easily just said a verbal warning and went on his way.
Yep. Cops do that a lot in regards to our rights. Like the whole needing a permit to carry a firearm. They'll say they agree you have the right to do it while taking your gun and charging you felony charges. That's a whole other story I can get into, that nearly ruined my life. Victimless crimes is a serious problem in America. Even understanding what a victim is, that's long gone. If you're not harming anyone, no one should harm you financially or otherwise.
yeah i have 6 months probations for simple batery we were playing basketball at a gym called coquile or sum its german or some shit and i threw the ball across thje court tryna hit a half court and it hit him in the head but it turned out he had head problems and he had a concusion and his mom had connections i pled not guilty and went to another court and they were tryna raise the charge to secdond degree batery but what i did wasnt intentional but since she was someone important in my city (the persons mom) and i did still give him a concusion i got charged with simople batery and so 6 mopnths probation, i have a 6pm curfew (on weekends 8 pm) and i cant get suspended in school (which in louisiana its easy asf you talk just a peep in the wrong teachers class and its your ass) and im a talkitive goofy kid you know im not the popular kid but im well known mainly bc im a goofball so idk what imma do until december, its gonna be my first year of highschool too bc im 14.
and its also a misdemeanor, but that should be kinda obvious bc its a first offense (SIMPLE BATERY) aka lowest level of battery that wasnt intentional, WHICH SHOULD OF BEEN DROPPED THEN BC THE WHOLE POINT OF BATTERY IS CAUSING HARM TO SOMEONE WITHOUT THERE CONSENT ON PURPOSE, but yk who cares i guess but yeah lets go outside and have fun!!!! well i guess imma be playing 2k until december and not basketball in the gym
Word of advice. Get an attorney. I can't stress this enough. Never, ever go to court without an attorney. Even if it's a simple jay walking ticket, retain an attorney. The court expects you to be ignorant of the law then throw the book at you.
Hey man - this is old news now but thanks for bringing this to light. When I was a freshman in college I got a class A for "racing" even though the cop clocked me doing 45 in a 45. I got arrested, spent thousands, and a few years on probation for it. Got railroaded through court with no idea what was happening, and I couldn't afford a lawyer that would give me the time of day. Come to find out they didn't even charge me correctly (what they actually charged me with had nothing to do with racing, and was something related to horse racing/gambling?) - so I managed to get it expunged from my record 10 years later. Never got the time, money, or lost jobs back though. I generally agree with the legal system and and sympathize with law enforcement - but when it goes bad, it goes bad. Thanks for bringing this kind of abuse of power to light!
Sounds like Cody is doing this more for the guy who works for him that is trying to create a career then anything else. That is a really good friend. Good on you man, protect the guys that have your back.
@@shaggy1531 I'm not saying that's not part of it too. Of course it's entertaining. But he still will back his guys and take no deal because he's got the money to do it and the fanbase. Of course it is a middle finger to the court system.
I know the saying is don’t bite the hand that feeds you. But my dad always taught me don’t bite the hand that makes you look good. Meaning if you got a good employee, you take good care of them
What a waste of Tennessee resident’s tax dollars. A self entitled officer wants to have a pissing contest and calling his buddies at TWRA. I pay my taxes in this state and can’t believe TWRA wasted their time and money on something so petty when they could have been getting quality work done and potentially saving someone’s life on the water. I hope to see you fight this thing to the end and get these charges dismissed as they should be. Good luck bud!
what this shows is that its time we vote someone else in. These police and whoever else on power trips should be voted out. It sounds like they are pretty much extorting you so i guess when its the police breaking the law is okay.
I, for one, hope they throw the book at you. Maximum charges. I remember my mom pouring water over my head to get the shampoo out of my hair, when I was a toddler. The cup was only inches away, I can't even imagine how bad it would be to get splashed from a few feet away. The speed of the droplets would be devastating.
@@mikemorano1457In the interest of full disclosure, it is every person's responsibility to learn the eccentricities in the laws of the state that they visit. Having said that, the reckless operation law exists for a reason, and this isn't it... I have been boating for over 50 yrs, in many states which have both the requirement for boater safety courses, as well as the "reckless operation" laws. I have literally never seen anyone who did not have a criminal record, or some other infraction combined recieve anything more than a warning. It's just a d*ck measuring contest at this point.
You need to sue the b*lls off of them, they're trying to punish you for your approach in handling the butt hurt officers conduct and the fact that you brought some support with you to court. Total abuse and missuse of power and authority while trying to put you in your place so to speak ...they need to be exposed! Fight the good fight Cody!!!
Hey stuntman and cameraman good seeing you guys here and ABSOLUTELY AGREE. We absolutely can’t let officers go on power trips whenever they want and f*** over innocent people because they’re mad.
Cody really is a modern day Outlaw, used to hate him back in the day but nowadays I can’t help but love this guy and the shit he does, this dude has two things going for him, he’s a man of his word and he does not give a fuck. He’s got the means and the support to do great things and I’m happy to see him out here fighting injustices!
To be honest o disliked him too when I heard about him for no Dammn reason. It was stupid. After I watched his first video I told myself to stop being such a HATER. Cause that’s what we were gentlemen.😅
The fact that Whistlin realized that he was getting a special deal cause of his situation and his buddy that's in a even worst situation didn't get one so he turned it down is actually one of the coolest to me! Props codey you earned a lot of my respect on this one!
Him and his buddy were a package deal from how I understand it. However, WD isn’t taking said deal because there are people who don’t have a platform such as his getting screwed by the same BS. It makes it that much better.
Years ago i learned this the hard way. I knew in my heart I was doing the right thing by trying to be honest and tell my story, but I was strong-armed into taking the attorneys' deal. Turns out it didn't matter as the judge decided he didn't want to honor that deal. It has caused me no end of trouble and heartbreak, and made my life so much more difficult. One stupid mistake and it follows you forever, to jobs, schools, relationships.. these people don't care so long as they get to maintain their idea of control, and help their own ambitions. I'm glad you have the resources on your side and sincerely wish you the best.
That opens a dirty door trying to wheel and deal like that. So where do they draw the line with what they will take to get charges dropped? And what about the poor guy who has nothing to offer? Doesn't seem right.
It's because it's not. That's a corrupt DA that's trying to pressure the prime suspects into leaning one way or another on stuff like that. It's like corrupt lawyers who tell you it's in your best interest to plea guilty even for lesser charges because it's not worth the risk even if you're innocent. That's corrupt too. It's actually in an innocent persons best interest to plea innocent even if their lawyer hates them for not making his job easy and you also get more court ect. At least in the end if you're really innocent you'll hopefully survive. If you plea guilty for lesser charges for something you didn't do then you get charges for something you didn't do and you're guilty and everyone will say you're guilty, when you're not. Also if that happens I'd tell the judge you've lost confidence in your lawyer for trying to lead you to be guilty rather than trying to help you defend your innocence and they'll push the trial back and give you time to find a new lawyer and they can catch up and figure out the situation. At least hopefully. In a corrupted justice system you're also likely to just be treated like you're Satan for the most minor of offenses no matter how innocent you truely are. And thus jurisdictions law enforcement already appears to be leaning that way. So if the case doesn't go the right way because the court is corrupt then he can appeal the case up and up. Hopefully he's in a jurisdiction where he won't just end up with some triggered loser who's mad he had fun on a jetski that'll throw him in prison forever for not helping those cops sweep their fishy behavior under the rug by complying for boater saftey. If his crimes were so bad they have to threaten long term drug tests, a spy to watch him constantly, wrapping up all this money, they definitely wouldn't be willing to throw it all away if Cody promotes boater safety for them. Screw them, they probably have dirty deeds in all the boater safety courses too, why else would they promote it so hard? They're obviously pushing it pretty hard and they seem to persecute more than Cody for splashing water as it appears they're so well rehearsed with this whole bad cop good cop "we'll drop everything if you do boater saftey promotion but if not you're screwed" interrogation. If the cops had any sense they'd have just dropped all charges and walked away with their tail between their legs. They stopped looking for robbery to go deal with a mad sheriff on his day off because Cody didn't let his bullying go unnoticed. Clearly a bunch of crooked cops. Theyve got all this BS tying up the court system because Cody was behaving on a jet ski how 99% of people probably would. Splashing water, going around, having fun, ect. Who goes to the water and doesn't splash? Guess it's time to ban squirt guns because oh boy one time kid took in in the eye right?! 😂 What a joke. The lawyers are supposed to be proving people guilty or innocent, not interrogating them in dark rooms about how if they plead guilty and promote boaster saftey "it'll all go away" smells super fishy to me. Are the cops going to make people sign up to squirt gun safety courses and get permits to have fun?!
Dude this was a real stand up thing to do for a friend. You could've easily been selfish about it, but you are bringing awareness to the situation. As a cop he could have talked to yall and educated yall about the rules. Keep doing what you believe in dude💪🏾💪🏾
*I'm a 50 year old adult, so I can see getting annoyed at kids making waves and disturbing the peace a bit; but the way the off duty cop abused his position and acted like an idiot is by any measure 500 times worse, that guy should get reprimanded or something WAY BEFORE anyone spends time, effort, and my tax dollars to go after the kids splashing in the water.*
You're angry someone else.made waves? Do you get angry at the wind when it starts to create waves? Get a fucking grip. "America the land of the free". My fucking ass.
Operating a watercraft over 5 mph within 50ft of another vessel is illegal in most state i think. Learned that 23 YEARS ago when i to thier stupid boater safty course because it was a law back then...
To be fair, we only have one side of some edited videos. They could have been straight-up pricks (WD...arrogant?! who says so?!) and that always colors how the police handle any situation. Its like driving 10 over and getting a speeding ticket, sometimes the cop is a prick, MOST of the time it was something the driver said or did that brought the ticket vs a warning.
I absolutely love how he galvanizes the public against the government and authority who push people around for no reason. Cody understands that we were never meant to be this controlled and buried under law after law.
I'd tell them ,I ain't giving YOU shit, take me to jail right now, and YOU are going to take care of ME, YOU are going to give ME a place to sleep,YOU are going to give ME 3 meals a day, YOU are going to supply ME with an air conditioned room to make ME comfortable for when I'm sleeping ,and when I'm not sleeping you are going to supply ME a tv to watch when I'm just chillin ,so run along and get ME my lunch, oh and on the way back, bring ME some more toilet paper.
he needed to make money first, to do what his heart always desired. Hes actualy a kind and cool guy.. he just perfected his character to the point that people actualy thought hes an asshole.
Im glad the community came together for him. Its good that people still come together and stand up for what is right. Our government does nothing but take... and take. Its time we stand up even for the little things and make our voices heard.
The big issue here is the fact the citations were issued as a retaliation to the conflict with that other deputy. That should be in the light the most. Did the other officers truly witness the "splashing" ? Because if they get on the stand an testify that they did and you can prove they didn't, that puts them under a "giglio" status and they will never be able to swear to testimony again. That will end their careers... Provide that evidence through your attorney...
This is actually why he’s hiring a lawyer. I have no doubt the charges will be dropped. The sad thing is nothing is going to legally happen to that pontoon man who called the boat police on WD.
I doubt the officers saw it; the bystander (sounds like he was off duty - but his word will hold weight since he is an officer in the eyes of a court) they will have to get the bystander (off duty cop) to make a statement saying he saw them do X. In that case; (as judges normally accept the word of an officer - regardless if they are off duty). In which case WD will get a charge dand found guilty. Therefore; WD should of counter offered to drop charges against the college student and that he will do the boat course to get the remaining charges dropped against himself. Guess WD or his stupid lawyer doesn't understand when they try to make a deal and an offer you CAN COUNTER OFFER. Whoever WD's lawyer is a FUCKTARD for not doing that. I just feel bad for his friend losing his college free ride because WD/lawyer was stupid - he should offer to pay for his college if he loses it. Also; still a decent chance the pro drops the charges as it isn't really worth it to them for bad press over very minor charges. Shocked they didn't drop it after finding out who he is unless that off duty cop pulled some strings which I'm betting he is.
No, they were issued for wrong doing. Horseplay like that on a public waterway is a danger to others and he couldn't just take the ticket and shut up. He had to be Mr. Ive Got Lots Of Money. People die from the stupidity of idiots like this and you could spend the next 10 years researching every senseless accident that could of been avoided with common sense
@@mikelachey824 Idk how you're defending the ticket. It was clear retaliation by the off duty cop. They would've cited them for anything. The whole "safety" aspect is just to distract from the real reason he got the ticket in the first place.
It's pretty common for the DA to offer some sort of plea deal to avoid the expense and inconvenience of having a trial. Only about 1 in 20 felony convictions are the result of a proper trial, the rest are plea deals for lesser charges. From what I see, that deal really ought to be on the high end of what he gets for what's in the video, if even that much. And honestly, it probably should have been a warning not to do anything that dumb again.
@@SmallSpoonBrigade Most people probably wouldn't get a plea deal that good, that's why he's so angry about this. And it would be very tacky if he started shilling for the feds on his channel too.
I love that the DA is literally the guy in charge of enforcing the law and has 101% authority to just not and yet claims there's nothing he can do about it.
I just started watching your videos. You're a most intriguing young man. This from an old dude (70) . I'll continue watching, especially after seeing the Murfreesboro address, I drive OTR and load twice a week there. Thanks for the videos
Man, what can I say. Class act by turning down their deal because the other guy with you was getting nothing. This country needs more people like you because Big Brother is slowly taking away little pieces of freedom one by one. Really showing how humble you are by opening and reading the fan mail, that means a lot to people and especially the young ones that sent you drawings and letters. Big thumbs up to you Cody.
It is becoming more and more hard to ignore the fact that today's police in America have become nothing more than mercenaries for corrupt politicians. Worse than that they are above the same laws that you are expected to follow to a T. We no longer live in a modern civilized nation, society is crumbling into a totalitarian dystopian police state and it will only get worse if citizens don't stand up and say enough is enough. Glad to see Cody not just bending over and taking it like most of us would be forced to do or else lose everything...
It's not even Big Brother, it's power-tripping assholes inside systems of power that don't regulate themselves and don't weed out people abusing the system.
This country has millions of people who would do exactly the same but don't have the cash or fame to afford a good lawyer to beat the corrupt system !!!
I’ve been a cop for 12 years and this is the dumbest thing I ever heard. I understand getting tickets and / or points on your license. But the fact that they actually want to charge you for a ticket is insane. In any other city or state, you paying off the tickets would end the charges and there would be no court hearing due to double jeopardy. Thank you for fighting this and giving people a reason to never visit that city ever.

@@dsprg He also literally caught that one guy stealing right off his property no joke. This guy got the evidence that helped the police reverse a crime. Cody let him go with no punishment after returning his stuff and now they're trying to ruin Cody for doing 1/10,000th of what that guy did when he stole Cody's stuff off his land. Like shoot bro, all the cops had to do was give Cody maybe a warning about not splashing water around too many people but it was their bosses day off and boss man was mad triggered and we wants full punishment because he's corrupt unlike Cody. That corrupt cop never forgives anyone by the way he treats cody on his day off. Cody forgave that guy for stealing right out of his yard and he had photo evidence. This cop won't even forgive something far far far far less of a real problem. Oooo water is wet, a wake splashed agaisnt some rocks, quick call the cops. Cody exercised his free speech towards an off duty cop and did nothing more and look how they're treating him! They're trying to pressure him into promoting boater safety to drop all the charges he doesn't really deserve at all, yet meanwhile not all that long ago Cody stopped a crime and managed to have it reversed after it was committed with different police. How crazy. He's helping them and these ones are working against him. Kinda sad
I fully support this message, I loved the MAIL TIME at the end. Just shows how humble you are. If y'all want to support him, do this man a favor and watch those adds. If you don't skip the ads he makes just a fraction more per view. But when you multiply that by millions it adds up REAL quick. I honestly Love the vigilante atmosphere in all of this. The world is watching how they handle this, it wouldn't surprise me at all if this man gets a law changed before this is over. Keep doing your thing Cody, I've been watching since day one. And you have never failed to make a video that keeps me watching till the end.
Yea fuck adds 😂 I got premium so I don't gotta worry about them but still. He makes good money and giving the viewers an obligation to watch the adds is kinda ass.
Glad to see a young person fighting for Justice in such a positive way! N'o rule, law, or regulation is a substitute for good judgement or COMMON SENSE. I'm a 60 year old former USAF officer, 3rd generation combat veteran. Continue to use our justice system. Use public oppinion and appeal bad court decisions. It's important for you to show that you can get FAIR justice in our system. Keep up the fight and Continue to use your good judgement and common sense. Little things make big things happen!! God bless
Seems as if some of these ridiculous “laws” are and always have been a revenue stream for our local, county and federal governments. Keep fighting. We got your back.
Mr ClawBoss's post is the most relevant and truthful comment of them all. Analogous to automobile speeding enforcement which actually makes highways LESS safe and whose main purpose is local and state revenue generation which is pocketed by local and state law enforcement
No we don’t have his back. He’s a dumbass. His time is running out where no amount of fame or fortune will save him. He’ll piss off the wrong person some day.
This man has a HELL of a point. DONT TAKE THE DEAL. I love the awareness of this young man. Poor people get railroaded ALL THE TIME because they cant AFFORD good representation. Jails and prisons are FULL TO THE MAX in most states with POOR PEOPLE... with a couple terrible rich people peppered in. Why... because rich people CAN afford good legal representation. Stick it to the State Bro!!!!!!! Best wishes.
these states also get subsidizes from the federal gov for every inmate...its a money maker. until they get caught double dipping with parolees like in Nh.
@@blackscreenman6117 naa it's not only easily verifiable, but if you think about it for two seconds it makes perfect sense. Who has dozens of shoplifting charges? 4 CPCS, 2x disorderly conduct, resisting arrest, operating without papers, petty larceny? any amount and combination of charges you can think of: poor people. And as anyone who knows or is a criminal is aware: the stuff that goes to court is a TINY fraction of the actual number of committed crimes. rich people don't shoplift, have people drive them, have houses to do their drugs in and people to bring them the shit. The only "serious" crime a citizen (working class, middle class, upper class) gets is DUI. The "rich person crime" is securities fraud and shit like that
It's a violation of the DA's Code of Ethics to make you an offer like that. Should report it, can likely get the case dropped if the judge is made aware of that violation coupled with the insignificance the DA clearly thinks the charge holds, to have made that offer in the first place. EDIT: I believe the DA making you an offer that's outside of that which the legal system can provide is literally circumvention of justice also.
I am so thankful you are going through this...not for your suffering, but that your audience may become awakened to the vile gang-like nature of 'the system.' Pray that none ever forget the capriciousness, the intimidation, the threats, the extortion, and the entire system that will not only stand there and watch it happen but actively participate and assist in the cover up. Doubling down to put you uppity citizen in your place...know your overlords and snivel for them, or be destroyed. All involved should never be allowed authority over anything, if allowed to cut grass they should be heavily supervised. Utterly disgusting.
The amount of money some podunk county in TN is willing to spend on this "crime" is a great example of why government needs to be as limited as possible

I think the fact that they tried offering him a deal means they don’t have what they need to charge him, not sure if Cody knows this but I’m sure his lawyer does
Ultimate character move. Literally anyone else would have taken the deal. The fact that you didn’t speaks volumes about who you are. You literally just crushed every hater’s argument
True. However, I'd still go there with a lawyer. If you can afford a good lawyer, always use them when you're dealing with the system. Why? Well watch this video. You can go to prison, or have a felony on your record for you whole life, for just one single mistake like signing or saying something that a good lawyer will prevent you from doing.
They need leftist criminals loose to keep up the mayhem, part of wrecking the country to turn it into an effing Marxist socialist communist slave nation.
I am currently enrolled in law school and the way the off duty officer behaved is far beyond reprimand able. Blatant abuse of power and that alone is enough to lose his job if not be charged with a felony himself. Get proof of him sending any messages and the case will be dropped faster than the cops pants to get bent over. Don’t say anything to get you in trouble and ask the prosecutors for evidence themselves. Good luck Cody law always gets served!
Cody is screwed only way he gets out of this is with local lawyer that gets everyone off it’s just simple anyone involved in “small town justice” knows all this. It’s funny he actually knows that people get screwed in life all the time. Problem is small towns run they town not Cody.

You haven't been in Lithuania, here one young criminal beated up a girl (under influence of alcohol) ant received no jail penalty. Other have been caught with 0,01 gram marijuana and got like 2 year prison sentence.
If that private room you were in with the officers, had cameras, you should FOIA that shit. That situation you described is essentially extortion. And I'd be willing to bet if you had a capable lawyer bring a suit to the county on that front... your case would be dropped immediately.
The general public needs to demand that private cameras be allowed in court. There are too many incidents of poor conduct from local Judges behaving more like kings or queens. We’ve all witnessed it.
You know the reason that they had to "re schedule" the court date was because the officer that wrote the ticket was not there. Cody would have won by default. They were like. OMG look at all those people out there. We CANOT let him make us look stupid. Once the news and social media got wind of all this the state went and got a continuance. And took 2 weeks to assemble the A-Team. Good luck Cody. We are all behind you!
Bingo! I live in a small hillbilly town, and they did this same tactic to a Christian girl that they claimed was driving without a seatbelt! Took her in a back room without her parents, and finally she spoke up and said she wanted her parents. They were telling her she could pay $600 or serve a day in jail. She had her seatbelt on! She took it off when she was pulled over because she had never been pulled over and was freaking out
Born and raised in Tennessee. I'm 40, so I've experienced this my whole life. Every single town in this state runs on the good boy system.

How did we go from boosted launches on bear traps to destroying 100k dollar trucks on a private farm, to fighting the laws in Tennessee 😳 this whole thing is way crazier than I ever expected
I know its kinda funny a guy who makes his living blowing up $270k sports cars and $100k farm machinery, and building six figure monster trucks... Is now presenting his struggle as fighting for the disadvantaged kid who cant afford college. We are also told by the media who covered up the hunter biden laptop story and spent 2 years telling lies about russian collusion that Donald Trump is a threat to our democracy. Its a crazy world.
It's honestly this guy's ego. He felt "blackmailed" he kept talking about splashing water but briefly mentioned the possession of Marijuana and UNDERAGE DRINKING. Why is he acting surprised? 🤷♂️🤦♂️
@@stansmith5610 He was naming other Class A misdemeanors, not his own (alleged) crimes. The boys offering to drop all charges if he gets 300 people to take their boat safety course would be considered blackmail in any first world country besides America.
I appreciate you doing this, Cody. Laws in America have gotten way out of hand. Seems like we can't do anything anymore without getting in trouble for it.
Thats not true. You can steal $999.99 worth of stuff in california and not get in trouble. Oh wait, you mean normal stuff that people do regularily,... Yeah youre right we cant do jack squat anymore.
Cody you are lucky to be able to fight this and have the finances too. It’s so saddening that this goes on the regular, you a celebrity and they trying you with this, imagine if it was just John. It’s good thing ur going to ur full length to fight this
Opens up my eyes for the "criminals" who can't afford a good lawyer. People who do petty things but sit in jail awaiting their trial while the judicial system has registered sex offenders and murderers walking our streets with a slap on the wrist $. The system is fucked.
Victimless crimes is the real thing it should open your eyes about. If you're being punished financially or otherwise and haven't harmed anyone, you're not free. This isn't how America is supposed to work.
Cody starting to realize the actual power that's at his fingertips. The system doesn't like to be overloaded with 200,000 Souls at the drop of a post. Lol
hearing you talk about how others in your situation who aren't as priveleged to afford to fight the law would be impacted and without a voice was awesome
bro, once you get this case dismissed because no judge is going to prosecute you for "jet ski splashing" you need to turn around and sue the police department and the township for malicious prosecution and harassment.
every offer from every DA is blackmail. Its just how the legal system works really. They assumed you would take the deal to get the tickets dropped and use your celebrity to get several hundred people to take their class that would make them many thousands of dollars.
That is not blackmail at all lmfao. Have you ever heard of the idea of a plea deal? These types of offers are the foundation for the *majority* of prosecutions in the United States.
This is a serious infraction. I was splashed by a muskie last week and I'm currently in the process of hiring the best attorneys I can find to erradicate all fish from our glorious lakes. I may never emotionally or physically recover from my splashing so I know all about the long road to recovery the splash victim has infront of him. Im currently bedridden and I'm most likely suffering from post traumatic splash syndrome. This repeat splasher deserves life behind bars with the rest of the violent thugs that terrorize the dry.
They are absolutely trying to make an example of you, to save face for the clown that initiated this altercation. Get a lawyer, make this as public as possible (as you’re doing now), and I truly can’t imagine that they’ll have a leg to stand on. In the meantime, cross your T’s and dot your I’s because you KNOW they’ll be watching you. This is absolutely nuts, and I wish you the best of luck.
Lol and he has the money to throw at it. We all know for a fact he is going to get one of the best lawyers and no lawyer will say no. This is literally the best publicity anyone could get defending him. This is gonna get wild.
@@Jonnyyrage listen man malicious persecutions have big payout and if your lawyers are good enough to handle it then you just gotta play your part as suspect #1. Cody has got a lot of evidence. Splashing water is no where near as dangeorus as drunk driving. If it was whoever he splashed water on should've been injured. He didn't even injure anyone and they're tryna act like they'd going to screen him for drugs and monitor his every movement as a threat to manipulate him into promoting literally boater safety 🤦 these police are clowns man 😂 at least these ones are. So is the DA. Why's he sitting in and trying to pressure innocent people into admitting their guilty and promoting boater safety in order to avoid a litany of punishments? They're acting like he robbed a bank
That is what you call a true friend when he stands up for the other man instead of himself great job WD and thank you for keeping it real and the good content
Fighting for the little guy and still promoting the boating safety course, I didn't know that you were this level of dude but I fully support you in this fight. You're doing the right thing and with any luck you might make a change. Good luck!
The little guy was also UNDERAGE DRINKING AND HAD POSSESSION OF MARY J... Not very smart of them to be doing that either. But he'll emphasize on "splashing water"
I don’t believe the court realizes how much money and connections WD has. A lot of other big RUclipsrs with massive audiences and more connections are also his close friends 😂 He’s not going to drop this. And is going to make the entire police force and court look ridiculous. Just to make a point. This is going to get good. I hope some people lose their jobs for being so stupid. On camera especially.
It will be rather rich, don’t you think? The oath breakers - traitors - thinking they’d skin those two spoiled ass punks and teach them a lesson for their buddy. (And no there was no single bad cop, the cop watching the bad cop and not stopping his bs is another bad cop.) Come to find out Mr. Whistle is the motherload!

This is exactly what I've been saying for the last few years when discussing relocation with friends and family! I've been in Tenn for long enough to get this vibe, and others who research the topic, warn of high corruption and the good'ol boy network among "law enforcement" and politicians! Of course there is corruption everywhere, but it's a little deeper in some places...... In north Idaho and western Montana, where we plan to relocate, this kind of crap just won't happen as a rule! Any cops I've interacted with, would be embarrassed to act like this! Most people from my extended family on both sides are moving to the south to get out of NY state! Please note! : UPSTATE NY! NOT NYC! VERY BIG DIFFERENCE that many people more than two states away from NY don't seem to know about! Lol! Anyway, we're all leaving because of the political and taxation insanity! I'm going to n Idaho, or western Montana! Is land crazy expensive? Yes! Do I think I'll ever have to deal with this kind of crap from cops, and local judges? No. And when the shtf I won't have to worry about the majority of my neighbors stealing from me! You can NOT say the same in most of the south......
@@davidcatlin1970 I have a close friend battling a corrupt system here in coffee county. It’s sad cause he’s a good person, someone I’ve never even seen litter, and an avid sportsman. The guy lives to hunt. They’re pushing aggravated perjury charges on him on a case that’s been going on 3 yrs because the court/ county keep postponing. Charges that carry a felony. Of course his lawyer is local and won’t make waves in the good ol’ boy group. Just seems like the world is constantly getting shittier.
@@TheCloser1 well that kind of corruption is generally not tolerated in many other parts of the country.

The Boss Hog style corruption doesn't even fly in super liberal areas in NY state! Of course the laws are always worse, but most of the time at least you know what they are! Instead of having unspoken laws that are just between you the judges and the cops!
Yeah why no lawyer? I’d imagine a lawyer would have shut this down. At the end of the day if he did break the law. Not sure how the statute is written. At the end of the day he broke the law regardless. The da clearly wants to pursue it. But after the fact they can change the law. Get these expungements.
@@WJWeber Agreed, it is 90% intent. An honest mistake or one party getting butt hurt. The DA has nothing and is attempting to scare him so he can save face rather than admit the cops had a case of "don't disrespect my athoritay!".
This is a total abuse of power by law enforcement and a complete waste of tax dollars. Just because some cop got his feelings hurts. Glad to see you stand up to them. You have my support 100%
Perhaps, but apparently he spent his lawyer money on that sports car. Otherwise, I can't imagine why he'd show up without an attorney present. There really is no too early in the legal process to retain an attorney if you've got the money.
The DA was basically blackmailing WD. He can't offer a plea deal that he and probably only he could pull off. I don't any person who isn't a public figure could generate 300 people for a boat safety course. That could ruin WD's character if people found out he used his popularity to get out of a misdemeanor charge. I agree with him for not accepting it.
sure he can offer what ever he wants and hopes the defendant representing himself will sign it.. that takes care of one case on his docket without having to meet the burden of proof.
The people of our country let this happen. Get involved in local politics, question authority, fight for our liberty before its too late. Good luck, Cody and thank you for what you do.
12:51 I respect you fighting this. The court system counts on people not standing up for their rights and accepting a plea deal even when they aren't guilty because they threaten them with harsher punishments if they take it to a jury trial. We are guaranteed the right to a jury trial, but the DAs threaten you if you use your rights. Fight the good fight!
We need more of this. More people willing to stand up for themselves and others and people gathering in large numbers to support them to actually push for change and make a difference
Diesel has been a real eye opener for me, because i can relate to him in a lot of ways. I look a lot younger than I am, so people treat me like I work at weenie hut jr. They don't assume I'm actually smarter than them, which he is in this and many other cases. Diesel has outsmarted everyone he's shown on this channel. Love to see him get justice done.
All small towns have corrupt judicial systems that charge things for revenue. Even downgrade charges so they can . Ask me how I know this. I am retired U.S.ARMY and Guntersville, AL cost me over 10k for a ticket, however I lived in Germany for four years without law enforcement not pulling me over once. So yes our judicial system needs to be reformed BAD. Harassing and Revenue chasing is what we have.
In germany you get no traffic tickets because there is barely any police on "patrol" like in the US. You see a cop like once every one to two weeks or so but even then, as long as its not a traffic stop somewhere youll hardly ever get pulled over in your entire life.
I've been in the system for most of my life. When they come with deals that means their case is weak and they know it. They will try to give you another better plea deal on your next court date or may even dismiss it all together.
Yep. That last thing the court wants to do is go to misdemeanors and low level felonies. The further down the road you kick the case, the more money it costs the court, and the more likely they are to drop or close the case in a favorable way. Being in the system is hella stressful, even for small petty bullshit. Sorry to hear you’ve been wrapped up so much. It really sucks man

the old fucker literally said in the video he was gonna call them and send them out lol. Those cops saw absolutely nothing, they were just going off the old mans word and issued tickets on that basis alone. this is gonna backfire big time on him/those cops now that it's being escalated and he's getting a lawyer
The main issue is that the jackass on the boat sent the TWA out there like his personal henchmen. This is all because of his power trip.
Are we certain the A-hole on the pontoon boot can be connected to the water cops? If so and a connection can be proven then I think whistlin ought to leverage that vast vault of RUclips cash to sue the living socks off the entire system top to bottom.
Now I’ve gotten a couple citations for “splashing” on a PWC. It’s called speed in the proximity of another boat or watercraft and it’s a good law. There are some really gnarly wrecks out there of boats and PWC colliding.
“SLASHING”!!?? .. and all u got was a couple lousy tickets?
Can we take a moment to thank that power tripping gentleman. He has provided WD with some quality content and his (indirect) monetary contribution is greatly appreciated...wit the bonus of showing how scummy he and his buddies are.
He should defintely be repremanded for using police resources for such a pointless thing. It is literally a waste of everyone's time and money.
This. Petty tyrants do this shit all the time, I'd like to see this angle get addressed, that pig definately made a call.
"I can't do anything about the law" says every bad police officer I've ever encountered. There's somthing called "officer discretion" could have easily just said a verbal warning and went on his way.
"I'm just doin' muh job! I don't write the laws!"
100% could have informed him and told him not to let it happen again. That’s good policing. But literally threw the book at him
Yep. Cops do that a lot in regards to our rights. Like the whole needing a permit to carry a firearm. They'll say they agree you have the right to do it while taking your gun and charging you felony charges. That's a whole other story I can get into, that nearly ruined my life.
Victimless crimes is a serious problem in America. Even understanding what a victim is, that's long gone. If you're not harming anyone, no one should harm you financially or otherwise.
That is true. Learned that on a ride along here in SoCal. Except they just call it spirit of the law.

Hey man - this is old news now but thanks for bringing this to light. When I was a freshman in college I got a class A for "racing" even though the cop clocked me doing 45 in a 45. I got arrested, spent thousands, and a few years on probation for it. Got railroaded through court with no idea what was happening, and I couldn't afford a lawyer that would give me the time of day. Come to find out they didn't even charge me correctly (what they actually charged me with had nothing to do with racing, and was something related to horse racing/gambling?) - so I managed to get it expunged from my record 10 years later. Never got the time, money, or lost jobs back though. I generally agree with the legal system and and sympathize with law enforcement - but when it goes bad, it goes bad.

@Krk Jk shush
Welcome to the usa🤫
Hi Grimes. Funny seeing you here
It's because it's not. That's a corrupt DA that's trying to pressure the prime suspects into leaning one way or another on stuff like that. It's like corrupt lawyers who tell you it's in your best interest to plea guilty even for lesser charges because it's not worth the risk even if you're innocent. That's corrupt too. It's actually in an innocent persons best interest to plea innocent even if their lawyer hates them for not making his job easy and you also get more court ect. At least in the end if you're really innocent you'll hopefully survive. If you plea guilty for lesser charges for something you didn't do then you get charges for something you didn't do and you're guilty and everyone will say you're guilty, when you're not. Also if that happens I'd tell the judge you've lost confidence in your lawyer for trying to lead you to be guilty rather than trying to help you defend your innocence and they'll push the trial back and give you time to find a new lawyer and they can catch up and figure out the situation. At least hopefully. In a corrupted justice system you're also likely to just be treated like you're Satan for the most minor of offenses no matter how innocent you truely are. And thus jurisdictions law enforcement already appears to be leaning that way. So if the case doesn't go the right way because the court is corrupt then he can appeal the case up and up. Hopefully he's in a jurisdiction where he won't just end up with some triggered loser who's mad he had fun on a jetski that'll throw him in prison forever for not helping those cops sweep their fishy behavior under the rug by complying for boater saftey.
If his crimes were so bad they have to threaten long term drug tests, a spy to watch him constantly, wrapping up all this money, they definitely wouldn't be willing to throw it all away if Cody promotes boater safety for them. Screw them, they probably have dirty deeds in all the boater safety courses too, why else would they promote it so hard? They're obviously pushing it pretty hard and they seem to persecute more than Cody for splashing water as it appears they're so well rehearsed with this whole bad cop good cop "we'll drop everything if you do boater saftey promotion but if not you're screwed" interrogation. If the cops had any sense they'd have just dropped all charges and walked away with their tail between their legs. They stopped looking for robbery to go deal with a mad sheriff on his day off because Cody didn't let his bullying go unnoticed. Clearly a bunch of crooked cops. Theyve got all this BS tying up the court system because Cody was behaving on a jet ski how 99% of people probably would. Splashing water, going around, having fun, ect. Who goes to the water and doesn't splash? Guess it's time to ban squirt guns because oh boy one time kid took in in the eye right?! 😂 What a joke. The lawyers are supposed to be proving people guilty or innocent, not interrogating them in dark rooms about how if they plead guilty and promote boaster saftey "it'll all go away" smells super fishy to me. Are the cops going to make people sign up to squirt gun safety courses and get permits to have fun?!

Dude this was a real stand up thing to do for a friend. You could've easily been selfish about it, but you are bringing awareness to the situation. As a cop he could have talked to yall and educated yall about the rules. Keep doing what you believe in dude💪🏾💪🏾
*I'm a 50 year old adult, so I can see getting annoyed at kids making waves and disturbing the peace a bit; but the way the off duty cop abused his position and acted like an idiot is by any measure 500 times worse, that guy should get reprimanded or something WAY BEFORE anyone spends time, effort, and my tax dollars to go after the kids splashing in the water.*
well said friend
You're angry someone else.made waves? Do you get angry at the wind when it starts to create waves? Get a fucking grip. "America the land of the free". My fucking ass.
Operating a watercraft over 5 mph within 50ft of another vessel is illegal in most state i think. Learned that 23 YEARS ago when i to thier stupid boater safty course because it was a law back then...
when I'm 50 I will still be doing this you sound boring
To be fair, we only have one side of some edited videos. They could have been straight-up pricks (WD...arrogant?! who says so?!) and that always colors how the police handle any situation. Its like driving 10 over and getting a speeding ticket, sometimes the cop is a prick, MOST of the time it was something the driver said or did that brought the ticket vs a warning.
I absolutely love how he galvanizes the public against the government and authority who push people around for no reason. Cody understands that we were never meant to be this controlled and buried under law after law.
@@shanemedeiros3227 that would ring true to about everything the Brandon admin is doing. It’s disgusting we need to fight for our God given rights.
I know man. We’re treated like children trapped inside an avalanche of rules and wage slavery
Damn right! Well said sir!
Sad, how only those with money, can affect change for us lowly subjects. We have no voice down here.
That’s right bro! Thanks
I love how this channel went from destroying trucks to piss people off, to fighting dishonest people and broken systems
Good content gang
And that's why they're coming after him... all voices that speak against the system must be silenced. Come get us you nazi bastards!
I'd tell them ,I ain't giving YOU shit, take me to jail right now, and YOU are going to take care of ME, YOU are going to give ME a place to sleep,YOU are going to give ME 3 meals a day, YOU are going to supply ME with an air conditioned room to make ME comfortable for when I'm sleeping ,and when I'm not sleeping you are going to supply ME a tv to watch when I'm just chillin ,so run along and get ME my lunch, oh and on the way back, bring ME some more toilet paper.
he needed to make money first, to do what his heart always desired. Hes actualy a kind and cool guy.. he just perfected his character to the point that people actualy thought hes an asshole.
Finally exposing ALL democrats for the crooks they are. If your neighbors are democrats, EXPOSE them
Im glad the community came together for him. Its good that people still come together and stand up for what is right. Our government does nothing but take... and take. Its time we stand up even for the little things and make our voices heard.
Thank you hero! We will stand against this regime and better the world for all with love and what’s right! ❤
The big issue here is the fact the citations were issued as a retaliation to the conflict with that other deputy.
That should be in the light the most. Did the other officers truly witness the "splashing" ?
Because if they get on the stand an testify that they did and you can prove they didn't, that puts them under a "giglio" status and they will never be able to swear to testimony again. That will end their careers...
Provide that evidence through your attorney...
I bet discretion would be applied so they could continue to testify in court. They protect their own…
This is actually why he’s hiring a lawyer. I have no doubt the charges will be dropped. The sad thing is nothing is going to legally happen to that pontoon man who called the boat police on WD.
I doubt the officers saw it; the bystander (sounds like he was off duty - but his word will hold weight since he is an officer in the eyes of a court) they will have to get the bystander (off duty cop) to make a statement saying he saw them do X. In that case; (as judges normally accept the word of an officer - regardless if they are off duty). In which case WD will get a charge dand found guilty. Therefore; WD should of counter offered to drop charges against the college student and that he will do the boat course to get the remaining charges dropped against himself. Guess WD or his stupid lawyer doesn't understand when they try to make a deal and an offer you CAN COUNTER OFFER. Whoever WD's lawyer is a FUCKTARD for not doing that. I just feel bad for his friend losing his college free ride because WD/lawyer was stupid - he should offer to pay for his college if he loses it. Also; still a decent chance the pro drops the charges as it isn't really worth it to them for bad press over very minor charges. Shocked they didn't drop it after finding out who he is unless that off duty cop pulled some strings which I'm betting he is.
No, they were issued for wrong doing. Horseplay like that on a public waterway is a danger to others and he couldn't just take the ticket and shut up. He had to be Mr. Ive Got Lots Of Money. People die from the stupidity of idiots like this and you could spend the next 10 years researching every senseless accident that could of been avoided with common sense
@@mikelachey824 Idk how you're defending the ticket. It was clear retaliation by the off duty cop. They would've cited them for anything. The whole "safety" aspect is just to distract from the real reason he got the ticket in the first place.
This is why everyone loves you man. I've had multiple run ins with the dirty law that have set me back. Thank you for doing this!
love that they wanna say "well i cant do anything about the law" yet if you invite everyone to a safety course it all suddenly goes away.
It's pretty common for the DA to offer some sort of plea deal to avoid the expense and inconvenience of having a trial. Only about 1 in 20 felony convictions are the result of a proper trial, the rest are plea deals for lesser charges. From what I see, that deal really ought to be on the high end of what he gets for what's in the video, if even that much. And honestly, it probably should have been a warning not to do anything that dumb again.
Exactly! They are all liars.
@@SmallSpoonBrigade This was a retaliation stop.
@@SmallSpoonBrigade Most people probably wouldn't get a plea deal that good, that's why he's so angry about this. And it would be very tacky if he started shilling for the feds on his channel too.
I love that the DA is literally the guy in charge of enforcing the law and has 101% authority to just not and yet claims there's nothing he can do about it.
I just started watching your videos.
You're a most intriguing young man. This from an old dude (70) . I'll continue watching, especially after seeing the Murfreesboro address, I drive OTR and load twice a week there. Thanks for the videos
🎉 you are a original gangster. Hope your having a great week sir.
Man, what can I say. Class act by turning down their deal because the other guy with you was getting nothing. This country needs more people like you because Big Brother is slowly taking away little pieces of freedom one by one. Really showing how humble you are by opening and reading the fan mail, that means a lot to people and especially the young ones that sent you drawings and letters. Big thumbs up to you Cody.
It is becoming more and more hard to ignore the fact that today's police in America have become nothing more than mercenaries for corrupt politicians. Worse than that they are above the same laws that you are expected to follow to a T. We no longer live in a modern civilized nation, society is crumbling into a totalitarian dystopian police state and it will only get worse if citizens don't stand up and say enough is enough.
Glad to see Cody not just bending over and taking it like most of us would be forced to do or else lose everything...
It's not even Big Brother, it's power-tripping assholes inside systems of power that don't regulate themselves and don't weed out people abusing the system.
This country has millions of people who would do exactly the same but don't have the cash or fame to afford a good lawyer to beat the corrupt system !!!

big brother? this is more like good old boy police department oversteping their authority because the sherif was on a power trip.
I’ve been a cop for 12 years and this is the dumbest thing I ever heard. I understand getting tickets and / or points on your license. But the fact that they actually want to charge you for a ticket is insane. In any other city or state, you paying off the tickets would end the charges and there would be no court hearing due to double jeopardy. Thank you for fighting this and giving people a reason to never visit that city ever.

America needs more men like this. That will fight for what is right, and not give in. Much respect
If he fights too hard he'll get a sudden weapons or drug smuggling charge and disappear into a federal prison so fast it'll make his neck snap. This is America; he's too "pale" to get away with having this much influence.
Some people don’t have the money to fight something this simple. The fact that he does have the money to do so and is fighting when he really doesn’t have too cause this is a real simple charge is respectable

@@dsprg He also literally caught that one guy stealing right off his property no joke. This guy got the evidence that helped the police reverse a crime. Cody let him go with no punishment after returning his stuff and now they're trying to ruin Cody for doing 1/10,000th of what that guy did when he stole Cody's stuff off his land. Like shoot bro, all the cops had to do was give Cody maybe a warning about not splashing water around too many people but it was their bosses day off and boss man was mad triggered and we wants full punishment because he's corrupt unlike Cody. That corrupt cop never forgives anyone by the way he treats cody on his day off. Cody forgave that guy for stealing right out of his yard and he had photo evidence. This cop won't even forgive something far far far far less of a real problem. Oooo water is wet, a wake splashed agaisnt some rocks, quick call the cops. Cody exercised his free speech towards an off duty cop and did nothing more and look how they're treating him!
They're trying to pressure him into promoting boater safety to drop all the charges he doesn't really deserve at all, yet meanwhile not all that long ago Cody stopped a crime and managed to have it reversed after it was committed with different police. How crazy. He's helping them and these ones are working against him. Kinda sad
Which time and time again only results in life long hardships and absolutely no change.
The fact that the whole situation is basically documented and clearly shows the corruption is actually wild
Racketeering. Using the legal system to gain money and services at no cost or very little cost to them.
And imagine all the footage they have that they didn’t show

Yeaup and it qont change a thing. What happens when you literally get to investigate yourself for corruption.

Glad to see a young person fighting for Justice in such a positive way! N'o rule, law, or regulation is a substitute for good judgement or COMMON SENSE. I'm a 60 year old former USAF officer, 3rd generation combat veteran. Continue to use our justice system. Use public oppinion and appeal bad court decisions. It's important for you to show that you can get FAIR justice in our system. Keep up the fight and Continue to use your good judgement and common sense. Little things make big things happen!! God bless
Seems as if some of these ridiculous “laws” are and always have been a revenue stream for our local, county and federal governments. Keep fighting. We got your back.
@R Cortez awww you gonna cry little guy? hahaha who said he was drinking or high? you sound like a dumbass
Mr ClawBoss's post is the most relevant and truthful comment of them all. Analogous to automobile speeding enforcement which actually makes highways LESS safe and whose main purpose is local and state revenue generation which is pocketed by local and state law enforcement
No we don’t have his back. He’s a dumbass. His time is running out where no amount of fame or fortune will save him. He’ll piss off the wrong person some day.
@R Cortez he was not drinking/high whilst driving the jet ski.. those have no correlation…

This man has a HELL of a point. DONT TAKE THE DEAL. I love the awareness of this young man. Poor people get railroaded ALL THE TIME because they cant AFFORD good representation.

Stick it to the State Bro!!!!!!! Best wishes.
Hello 👋 Mike 🤨
these states also get subsidizes from the federal gov for every inmate...its a money maker. until they get caught double dipping with parolees like in Nh.
You forgot to mention that poor people on average commit a lot more crime than rich people.
@@DrBaronMunchausen Actually very doubtful about that. Maybe crimes that go to court.
@@blackscreenman6117 naa it's not only easily verifiable, but if you think about it for two seconds it makes perfect sense. Who has dozens of shoplifting charges? 4 CPCS, 2x disorderly conduct, resisting arrest, operating without papers, petty larceny? any amount and combination of charges you can think of: poor people.
And as anyone who knows or is a criminal is aware: the stuff that goes to court is a TINY fraction of the actual number of committed crimes.
rich people don't shoplift, have people drive them, have houses to do their drugs in and people to bring them the shit.
The only "serious" crime a citizen (working class, middle class, upper class) gets is DUI.
The "rich person crime" is securities fraud and shit like that
It's a violation of the DA's Code of Ethics to make you an offer like that. Should report it, can likely get the case dropped if the judge is made aware of that violation coupled with the insignificance the DA clearly thinks the charge holds, to have made that offer in the first place.
EDIT: I believe the DA making you an offer that's outside of that which the legal system can provide is literally circumvention of justice also.
@whistlindiesel
nice
dude stfu da’s do this kind of thing all the damn time. unless you are registered with the bar just shutuppppp
Yep
Republican trumptards silencing people. Weird thought they loved freedom. Can’t believe a red state is silencing people
I am so thankful you are going through this...not for your suffering, but that your audience may become awakened to the vile gang-like nature of 'the system.' Pray that none ever forget the capriciousness, the intimidation, the threats, the extortion, and the entire system that will not only stand there and watch it happen but actively participate and assist in the cover up. Doubling down to put you uppity citizen in your place...know your overlords and snivel for them, or be destroyed. All involved should never be allowed authority over anything, if allowed to cut grass they should be heavily supervised. Utterly disgusting.
The amount of money some podunk county in TN is willing to spend on this "crime" is a great example of why government needs to be as limited as possible
Almost all of the smaller counties (by population) down here are like that.
Only person paying for the crime is the one being charged. Bonds and fines.

Honestly everyone has gone soft and Cody was just trying to have fun. It’s unfortunate that he has to go to court for all of this
STOP SAYING FAX

Well the dude on the boat was a Republican trumptard so yeah let’s get rid of the soft weak trumptard republicans
I think the fact that they tried offering him a deal means they don’t have what they need to charge him, not sure if Cody knows this but I’m sure his lawyer does
Yes well, put.
Ultimate character move. Literally anyone else would have taken the deal. The fact that you didn’t speaks volumes about who you are. You literally just crushed every hater’s argument
No
True. However, I'd still go there with a lawyer. If you can afford a good lawyer, always use them when you're dealing with the system. Why? Well watch this video. You can go to prison, or have a felony on your record for you whole life, for just one single mistake like signing or saying something that a good lawyer will prevent you from doing.
Could he not have negotiated to get them both off?
@@marcaxe but that still doesn’t solve the problem
He’s literally about to go to court but still takes pictures with his fans. Respect

They need leftist criminals loose to keep up the mayhem, part of wrecking the country to turn it into an effing Marxist socialist communist slave nation.
See, now if Cody was a politician for a police officer, then he could do all the crimes he wanted and never have to worry about this sort of stuff.
Then we wouldn't have an government lol. Which isn't such a bad thing

I am currently enrolled in law school and the way the off duty officer behaved is far beyond reprimand able. Blatant abuse of power and that alone is enough to lose his job if not be charged with a felony himself. Get proof of him sending any messages and the case will be dropped faster than the cops pants to get bent over. Don’t say anything to get you in trouble and ask the prosecutors for evidence themselves. Good luck Cody law always gets served!
Cody is screwed only way he gets out of this is with local lawyer that gets everyone off it’s just simple anyone involved in “small town justice” knows all this. It’s funny he actually knows that people get screwed in life all the time. Problem is small towns run they town not Cody.

Bingo! I live in a small hillbilly town, and they did this same tactic to a Christian girl that they claimed was driving without a seatbelt! Took her in a back room without her parents, and finally she spoke up and said she wanted her parents. They were telling her she could pay $600 or serve a day in jail. She had her seatbelt on! She took it off when she was pulled over because she had never been pulled over and was freaking out

@@fast97z24 My understanding was he got 2. 1 "a"for splashing, 2 "c" wreckless op.
@222blu 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
AND the doofus who created all this. The piece of shit cop who’s high on his authority. Worst kinds of people.
That "offer" by the DA sounds an awful lot like blackmailing. I'd turn it from the state of TN vs Cody, to Cody vs the state of TN just for that.
I took criminal justice classes awhile back and I can tell you that this "deal" is just crap.
Sounds like a soros installed scumbag DA
It’s literally a plea deal dumbass lol
every offer from every DA is blackmail. Its just how the legal system works really. They assumed you would take the deal to get the tickets dropped and use your celebrity to get several hundred people to take their class that would make them many thousands of dollars.
That is not blackmail at all lmfao. Have you ever heard of the idea of a plea deal? These types of offers are the foundation for the *majority* of prosecutions in the United States.
When you said “live however you want because no one cares about you” I felt that.
@Lou Lou hey spammer get a life.
He was saying that as I was reading this ✊🏾 facts
Boy that cop really didn’t know what he was getting into 😂. Good luck being the bane of the entire channel for the rest of your life 🎉
This is a serious infraction. I was splashed by a muskie last week and I'm currently in the process of hiring the best attorneys I can find to erradicate all fish from our glorious lakes. I may never emotionally or physically recover from my splashing so I know all about the long road to recovery the splash victim has infront of him. Im currently bedridden and I'm most likely suffering from post traumatic splash syndrome. This repeat splasher deserves life behind bars with the rest of the violent thugs that terrorize the dry.
Sir that was a sunfish.
sir that was a blue gill
Infraction? Sir it is a felony
Sir that was a grouper
I was as well, can we use the same legal team, and file a bass action suit?
They are absolutely trying to make an example of you, to save face for the clown that initiated this altercation. Get a lawyer, make this as public as possible (as you’re doing now), and I truly can’t imagine that they’ll have a leg to stand on. In the meantime, cross your T’s and dot your I’s because you KNOW they’ll be watching you.
This is absolutely nuts, and I wish you the best of luck.
Lol and he has the money to throw at it. We all know for a fact he is going to get one of the best lawyers and no lawyer will say no. This is literally the best publicity anyone could get defending him. This is gonna get wild.
@@Jonnyyrage listen man malicious persecutions have big payout and if your lawyers are good enough to handle it then you just gotta play your part as suspect #1. Cody has got a lot of evidence. Splashing water is no where near as dangeorus as drunk driving. If it was whoever he splashed water on should've been injured. He didn't even injure anyone and they're tryna act like they'd going to screen him for drugs and monitor his every movement as a threat to manipulate him into promoting literally boater safety 🤦 these police are clowns man 😂 at least these ones are. So is the DA. Why's he sitting in and trying to pressure innocent people into admitting their guilty and promoting boater safety in order to avoid a litany of punishments? They're acting like he robbed a bank
listen to this mans cody
They're totally Fkn with Cody because they can and to waste his time and $$$ for talking back to officer Dckhead on the pontoon
@@bromack2353 1000% the truth bro
That is what you call a true friend when he stands up for the other man instead of himself great job WD and thank you for keeping it real and the good content
His antics aside, bro is a real dude, with integrity.
Fighting for the little guy and still promoting the boating safety course, I didn't know that you were this level of dude but I fully support you in this fight. You're doing the right thing and with any luck you might make a change. Good luck!
Call the offices and let them know how you feel
Hello fellow Kyle
Cody believes in justice.... And capybara.
The little guy was also UNDERAGE DRINKING AND HAD POSSESSION OF MARY J... Not very smart of them to be doing that either. But he'll emphasize on "splashing water"
@@stansmith5610 they didn't even have the alcohol open. You making this shit up?
I don’t believe the court realizes how much money and connections WD has. A lot of other big RUclipsrs with massive audiences and more connections are also his close friends 😂
He’s not going to drop this. And is going to make the entire police force and court look ridiculous. Just to make a point.
This is going to get good. I hope some people lose their jobs for being so stupid. On camera especially.
Yes 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻 Cody is tha fuckin man!!!
It will be rather rich, don’t you think? The oath breakers - traitors - thinking they’d skin those two spoiled ass punks and teach them a lesson for their buddy. (And no there was no single bad cop, the cop watching the bad cop and not stopping his bs is another bad cop.)
Come to find out Mr. Whistle is the motherload! Have every boating class full for the next few months, a little friendly tete a tete EXTORTION and chada ching! Right? What? Wait!!! That dude is Hammer? We done bit off more than we can chew!!
100% -- agree and i'm eager to see this play out
yessirrrrrr
Money can only get you so much...sometimes! His fame, to a bunch of youtubers is about as worthless as tits on a wild pig, in the judicial system. If anything it will hurt him.
Thank you for shining a light on this. Perfect example of how corrupt our system is.
Man cops can be dirty like that! Much love from another Nova Scotian eh! Should come for a visit when it’s not snowy 😁
I always hate petty situations like this but, if I am forced to, I can be extremely petty. I encourage you to take this as far as you possibly can to expose corruption.
Jesus loves you alot trust in His death 4 salvation and be saved from eternal hell
Thank you, the corruption needs exposed to many lives being thrown away by the very same DA involved in this case
@@Fit4C souls aren't won online by feel good sentiments. Show your struggles and how God helped you through them. Nonbelievers see comments like yours every day. You must be fearlessly personal just like Jesus was.
What is petty about standing up to injustice?
Yep and uploading all of it to YT helps. If enough people make noise, laws can be changed.
Cody spoke nothing but the truth in his recounting. This has gotta be one of the most ridiculous reasons for anyone to possibly go to jail for a year.
“I’ve robbed 0 banks this year” is also a contender for top 10 quotes from this channel in 2022 😂
There is almost always the threat of jail with almost every offense. Even some traffic offences. And class A is worse than C... It's the same as 1st⁰ and 3rd.. and mistdemoner
All he had to do was tell the guy he was sorry for making a wake. lol. Instead, he challenged the guy and now....he's fucked.
@@c103110a Not really. He’ll get off with a fine max, which is what they do for everyone.
@@T4.Bacteriophage He'll be on their radar now and, like he said, "no more lake for me." He challenged the old duffer and the Old Duffer called his bluff (and the TWRA). Cody is fucked from here on out. The Old Duffer won.
The fact that you recorded the entire event, with an off duty cop admitting to calling the cops, and then having a recording of the cops lying saying they were the sole witnesses to the event, kind of settles your case for you.
Otherwise it's just hearsay haha!
@@remi009340
First hand witness testimony is not hearsay. Hearsay is testimony saying i heard another person say something.
Isn't it inadmissible evidence if the subjects of the recording don't consent?
@@TheRandompaint Not how video works, and not the law either. Especially on public property.
@@TheRandompaint Im not from the US but a quick google says TN has one party consent
"Here's the Deal" channel sent me, just watched this. Good job standing on ethics, he's got the TN code linked in his vid.
The “good ol’ boy” TN justice system needs to be held in check. It’s the same way here in coffee co. They ruin the lives of good people over their own personal vendettas. Thanks Cody for standing up. Change will never happen until more people do.
This is exactly what I've been saying for the last few years when discussing relocation with friends and family! I've been in Tenn for long enough to get this vibe, and others who research the topic, warn of high corruption and the good'ol boy network among "law enforcement" and politicians! Of course there is corruption everywhere, but it's a little deeper in some places......
In north Idaho and western Montana, where we plan to relocate, this kind of crap just won't happen as a rule! Any cops I've interacted with, would be embarrassed to act like this!
Most people from my extended family on both sides are moving to the south to get out of NY state!
Please note! : UPSTATE NY! NOT NYC! VERY BIG DIFFERENCE that many people more than two states away from NY don't seem to know about! Lol!
Anyway, we're all leaving because of the political and taxation insanity!
I'm going to n Idaho, or western Montana! Is land crazy expensive? Yes! Do I think I'll ever have to deal with this kind of crap from cops, and local judges? No. And when the shtf I won't have to worry about the majority of my neighbors stealing from me! You can NOT say the same in most of the south......
Good thing their mayor is democratic. Lmfao
@@davidcatlin1970 I have a close friend battling a corrupt system here in coffee county. It’s sad cause he’s a good person, someone I’ve never even seen litter, and an avid sportsman. The guy lives to hunt. They’re pushing aggravated perjury charges on him on a case that’s been going on 3 yrs because the court/ county keep postponing. Charges that carry a felony. Of course his lawyer is local and won’t make waves in the good ol’ boy group. Just seems like the world is constantly getting shittier.
@@TheCloser1 well that kind of corruption is generally not tolerated in many other parts of the country. I'm not saying it doesn't happen ever, in even good places, but when the people find out the shtf! In the county my uncle moved to in Tennessee in 2000, the sheriff was the top kingpin in all drug sales in that county! The Boss Hog style corruption doesn't even fly in super liberal areas in NY state! Of course the laws are always worse, but most of the time at least you know what they are! Instead of having unspoken laws that are just between you the judges and the cops!
I work in corrections. The DA has nothing on you at all, and they are trying to scare you. Get a good lawyer and fight this to the end.
You work in slavery. Get out while you can.
Yeah why no lawyer? I’d imagine a lawyer would have shut this down. At the end of the day if he did break the law. Not sure how the statute is written. At the end of the day he broke the law regardless. The da clearly wants to pursue it. But after the fact they can change the law. Get these expungements.
@@WJWeber Agreed, it is 90% intent. An honest mistake or one party getting butt hurt. The DA has nothing and is attempting to scare him so he can save face rather than admit the cops had a case of "don't disrespect my athoritay!".
I bet one of your subscribers in the area is qualified to run for DA , scare the shit out of him and take his job in the next election
watching a spoilled rich kid bring an army to threaten the court, really bothered me.
This is a total abuse of power by law enforcement and a complete waste of tax dollars. Just because some cop got his feelings hurts. Glad to see you stand up to them. You have my support 100%
These old men threaten to sue you for drawing hopscotch on a sidewalk with chalk
The laws here in TN are ridiculous and alot crooked bs go on especially Maryville TN and Blount County TN
I 100% agree with you! Fight for what you know is true and fair!
THIS IS AWESOME! Soooooo glad to see someone with a lot of followers and a back bone and financial ability to stand up for what's rite!!!!
Perhaps, but apparently he spent his lawyer money on that sports car. Otherwise, I can't imagine why he'd show up without an attorney present. There really is no too early in the legal process to retain an attorney if you've got the money.
*right
The DA was basically blackmailing WD. He can't offer a plea deal that he and probably only he could pull off. I don't any person who isn't a public figure could generate 300 people for a boat safety course. That could ruin WD's character if people found out he used his popularity to get out of a misdemeanor charge. I agree with him for not accepting it.
sure he can offer what ever he wants and hopes the defendant representing himself will sign it.. that takes care of one case on his docket without having to meet the burden of proof.
they wanted those 300 ppl money so they can pocket it basically bribing if you think of it
They're all criminals working for a foreign power to extract wealth from the population, corporations working for profit.
@boburn ham shut up
Nah lol. DA’s have *total* prosecutorial immunity. They can do literally what ever they want so long as it’s not cruel and unusual punishment.
The people of our country let this happen. Get involved in local politics, question authority, fight for our liberty before its too late. Good luck, Cody and thank you for what you do.
And don't vote Democrat.
That's so nice that all those people showed up for him
When Cody became the hero everyone didn't realize they needed, the world lost their shit. It's amazing to watch it unfold! Thanks for all you do man
@im back too scared to click it 🤣
@@AverageJoeBuilds report that scammer.
@@jeremysales1232 done!
12:51 I respect you fighting this. The court system counts on people not standing up for their rights and accepting a plea deal even when they aren't guilty because they threaten them with harsher punishments if they take it to a jury trial. We are guaranteed the right to a jury trial, but the DAs threaten you if you use your rights. Fight the good fight!
We need more of this. More people willing to stand up for themselves and others and people gathering in large numbers to support them to actually push for change and make a difference
10000% man. You should see how it is here in canada
Diesel has been a real eye opener for me, because i can relate to him in a lot of ways. I look a lot younger than I am, so people treat me like I work at weenie hut jr. They don't assume I'm actually smarter than them, which he is in this and many other cases. Diesel has outsmarted everyone he's shown on this channel. Love to see him get justice done.
ol' news caster was tryin' hit son! 🤣
@my telegram account 👉@WhistlinDiesel12 piss off this is serious.
All small towns have corrupt judicial systems that charge things for revenue. Even downgrade charges so they can . Ask me how I know this. I am retired U.S.ARMY and Guntersville, AL cost me over 10k for a ticket, however I lived in Germany for four years without law enforcement not pulling me over once. So yes our judicial system needs to be reformed BAD. Harassing and Revenue chasing is what we have.
What does having been in the army have to do with getting a ticket?
Yes well said and thank you for your service
@@jake4194 I’m gonna assume he meant he was stationed in Germany
In germany you get no traffic tickets because there is barely any police on "patrol" like in the US. You see a cop like once every one to two weeks or so but even then, as long as its not a traffic stop somewhere youll hardly ever get pulled over in your entire life.
@@jake4194 He said he's retired from the army. He's saying he knows corruption like the back of his hand...
I've been in the system for most of my life. When they come with deals that means their case is weak and they know it. They will try to give you another better plea deal on your next court date or may even dismiss it all together.
Yep. That last thing the court wants to do is go to misdemeanors and low level felonies. The further down the road you kick the case, the more money it costs the court, and the more likely they are to drop or close the case in a favorable way.
Being in the system is hella stressful, even for small petty bullshit. Sorry to hear you’ve been wrapped up so much. It really sucks man
Well yeah, the whole case against him is the whatever the old dude said. It’s just their word against his.
Being at a lake is implicate consent to being splashed. If you do not wish to be splashed with water, you should not be at a lake.
