- The man who sparked the investigation over unauthorized photos taken at the site of the helicopter crash that killed Kobe Bryant is speaking out. Full story: abc7.com/kobe-...
I hope this man is safe. Law enforcement can be vindictive.
I was just saying the same thing 🙏🏽
They'll definitely f*** with him any chance they get.
They are the secret cartel they " we are family we take care of each other" not job but a cartel
Seriously...
Yes they can I hope covid kills more cops
He's not a whistle-blower he is a decent human being with morals...
If he was an officer in the department doing this he would be the only one fired and that’s sad
Nahh he’s just tryna get some money from the subsequent lawsuit….
@@MrDick410 secure the bag lmfao
@@mycatisawhore9336 All cops are snitches! whatumean?
…who blew the whistle on foul behavior.
If he showed it to a bartender, imagine who else he showed them to. So awful. It is also scary that someone so out of touch with humanity is in that kind of position. What else has he/will he get away with?
It only makes sense a sociopath would become a cop
Get away with? He showed some crash photos to interested individuals. You act like he raped a female or something. Wait.... that was Kobe. My bad.
probably a lot. One of the two parties that run this country don't believe in accountability for police, so it's hard to hold them responsible for their actions
@Coco Mocoe: Well said. I posted something similar. These "people" are the lowest of the low........
@@Utonian21 : You are so right!
They literally tried to make Vanessa seem as if she needed an psychiatric evaluation over this and that she was crazy to think they had pictures. Only to find out they did and cameras caught it plus a wonderful whistleblower. THANK YOU SIR!!! Sad thing is one of the 28 people will leak the photos out of anger and lack of accountability. I hope she owns that police department when this is over
It’s all staged ! All fake ! Wake up !
So snitch is now whistleblower huh

People break the law and get prosecuted but when law enforcement does the same thing they just get a slap in the hand makes me sick.
What’s the difference between brake and break?
Because thats how the sheep taxpayers designed it for the Race Soldiers in the laws slowly. So now we are surprised when they start abusing their Power & violate the People and the law says its ok. They designed the law that way.
learn how to spell
@@powercorrupts50 brake is the stop for a car. break means something separated or in this case disobey
@@n0limitmarz lol my sarcastic comment went right over your head. I obviously know the difference.
An officer found that amusing? How disturbing.
Vanessa does not need the money.
She's doing it for PRINCIPAL.
More power to her.
Shes doing it for both, everyone knows she isnt a sweet woman, shes greedy
The correct word is 'principle.' I disagree though; I believe it is entirely about money. The way she withdrew provisions and resources from her own mother against her late husband's wishes is indicative of that. This is about ego and money.
@@Joker12293 and you know this how? Do you know her personally? That's a lot of assumptions over someone you don't even know

It's so disgusting that these professionals could be so insensitive to the grief of all these families.
That's cops for you.
They see dead bodies all the time, The deputy thought it was just another day
@@zacharypeery4082 that's because police lack common decency.
The only reason this is getting attention is because they were famous. Ive had EMTs show me pics of people’s brains dangling out of their skulls.
Yet very common
He’s not a whistleblower he’s a human being that cares about human life…
Not mutually exclusive
rare for a male
Please protect this man and family. I have a feeling law enforcement officers are going retaliate and give him a hard time and harass him and his family.
Great point. It is LAPD or near them. And we all know their history.
Yes, I won’t put it pass for someone in the police or fire department, of being petty or revengeful. That wasn’t their right or job to take pictures of an horrible accident scene. Regardless of who the deceased person(s) were. And for anyone, to pass around pictures of mangle burnt bodies. And then for people to laugh at them. What’s that all about? How devilish and disturbing their mind and spirit must be! Who else remains have been put on displayed and people haven’t been caught?
I was sitting here thinking the same thing. Or they are gonna put someone else up to do it and then this guy is gonna have to call 911 for help and they will take their time responding. Definitely gonna be a retaliation
Especially the sheriff's
Norwalk ratchets
Cell phone era really messed up peoples minds and integrity
For sure no doubt
Don't blame a cellphone they chose to take their phone out and take pics

She's not doing it for the money. Bryan worked for his family. She's doing this so it will teach them a lesson and people won't be doing this kind of stuff
Exactly! She can care less about the money. I’m glad she’s not settling. Trial all the way!
She doesn't need the money because kobe paid her millions after he raped the girl in colorado and paid her millions Too !!

He did the right thing. The officers were completely in the wrong. To put on display the tragic end of someone’s life is extremely cruel!
i have a very different take tbh. when you're in that kind of field and see so many dead bodies, at some point someones going to brag and then people will get curious. i doubt they would even leak it
Yes I agree. However this is a free country. They should not be punished for that!!!!
@@hjuryfhukhjugdstjj8329 Sure. And they're free to also be sued for their actions. Because it's a free country
Yeah it’s wrong to allow psychopaths into positions of power like the police force
But it’s not cruel when they have pictures of celebs’ body on display at the mortician?
What an absolute disgrace this happened. All 28 people who viewed or diseminated the photos all should be held accountable.The Police & Fire Members involved should have been fired.I hope Vanessa Bryant & her girls can triumph over this whole
ordeal.
Lmao what? People who viewed held accountable?
Cry more
@@cryptofein3888.28 viewed those pics passing them around like a deck of cards.2 me that's pretty awful.U can have ur opinion & the majority of people don't think it's funny at all.Think of it as if it were 1 of ur family or friends.U might just change ur thoughts.If not so b it
@@lildebboston455it’s crazy to think about but those pictures are literally history that nobody has/will ever see. Wild, but it’s hard to put my self in that scenario and see how I would react.
I'm pretty sure it's not illegal to share photos of dead bodies. Obviously the cops have to keep the investigation private, and can't distribute those images, but the people that received the pics didn't break any laws by sharing them
Sick. That is just gross. I used to take accident calls and any deceased were covered so no faces were ever shown.
These were photos taken by the responders who made it to the scene prior to covering the accident victims' bodies.
@@natureinmyyardcorvidshummi8152 yes I know.
As awful as it is, it’s not exactly against the law to share pictures. The real question is why are these first responders so hardened and jaded that they would do something like that. I made the mistake of reading the autopsy report for Kobe and it was horrific. On paper it was just horrific. The remains were not even intact and I can only imagine what happened to the smaller and lighter victims of the crash. So how do you as a man and possibly father share pictures of something like that like it’s a souvenir. First responders need mandatory counseling, even if it’s just once a month.
Literally so disgusting. How can you have such little regard for human life? All of those people were someone’s loved one.

Why would they do that and think it's okay? Why would they want to see and share those photos? Disgusting. This guy is an upstanding man for filing that complaint.
It’s called morbid curiosity
@Rob Wright Well said Rob! not only trashing the country, but also on behalf of a petty criminal too. I was hoping the people that erected statues of him over the country listed underneath each a long list of his crimes.
crime scene photos arent anything new. you can practically find photos of any murder plane crash suicide etc etc etc with a google search even high profile ones. this really is not a new thing.
I’m curious
@@youngduck4691 i have that curiosity, I'd look at them. But I wouldn't go running around telling people though
Who would ever want to see that and even think it’s funny or laugh like that deputy? That’s disgusting and karma will find him.
That charlatan of a deputy is clearly very mentally ill ,ignorant, low-class, insensitive bigoted ,crass, and extremely racist . I agree karma will definitely find him. He should have a similar experience happen to him which would definitely be poetic justice.
@@Mr2110Sandman you have a lot of adjectives for a hateful person, you stooped to their level. You and him are equally deplorable.

@@777-h6d And apparently you are, too. You couldn't resist being just as negative as you accuse the people you are chastising of being. It's hilarious how people don't see the backward logic and irony when they do they same things they complain about other people doing. The hypocrisy...🤣🤣
@@AlexanderMason1 did you even watch the news report? There’s video evidence from the bar. You just not have any listening or reading comprehension lol. Nice of you to defend scum too. You know the LAPD has already paid out millions right in settled lawsuits? Where have you been. 🤣
The most disturbing part is the deputy laughed about what he saw! Yes, people deal with tragedy differently, but how could you not be horrified by seeing death?!

The problem I have with this is no one cares when it happens to average person everyday.I've seen horrible photos just out there floating in the cloud for anyone to view.Not one lawsuit for those lives.
I agree. Maybe we should sue. Some lack discretion period. I remember 2 really bugged me. An officer passing around a valentine’s of George Floyd “you take my breath away “. I believe was fired because lied about it. And Colorado cops that were texting making fun of a young black kid that they injected a drug to the neck to subdue and later died. That was over a call because he was weird at a store (not threatening or stealing)?
Rich people problems.
You can. People Just don't try.
true
Exactly! The only privilege that exists in this world is rich privilege, all these people with no real connections to the Bryant family are flipping out as if this doesn’t happen everyday to average citizens..
First responders have been doing this for decades, this will serve them as a warning but sadly it will continue. Only difference is that they will be more cautious from now on. It’s impossible to stop or prevent them from doing stuff like this.
💯
I’m so happy he found it in his heart to report this. He is a good person with a good heart and it’s unfortunate that they are people that would think something like this is funny. Just sad. All the best to him and his family
Hopefully he won't get harassed by the sheriffs now
Oh no I don’t think so 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
He's a snitch and a target now
Marked man
Just what I was thinking. Will suddenly find him suicided somewhere by them. Poor guy was trying to do the right thing, but to much corruption gonna get him hurt.
If he turns up dead, we all gunnin them sheriffs 💯🔫
In a world where people are quick to pull out their cameras… I’m surprised the pictures weren’t leaked on social media. Horrible situation overall.
So glad they didn’t leak online.
I honestly think it was the quick action of the bartender reporting it that night that kinda prevented those pix from leaking on social media. It was immediately known in the news media & police/fire dept. probably gave those cops & cops' friends panic not to leak it to social media.
Yeah it sucks they weren't. I've got quit a few celebrity body pics just got Chris Farleys OD hotel pic the other day but these I cant find.

Huh? Death is the unknown and man is obsessed with it. Why do you we have open caskets? I used to pour over old photos of dead bodies in many ways when I was younger. It was very fascinating.
Idk I'm curious to view the photos. The autopsy sketches just further my curiosity.

Second, were you not told as a child two wrongs don't make a right??? George Floyd's death was wrong and setting fire to your own City isn't going to bring him back.
But if I'm to understand you correctly, your drawing and equivalency between these cops and rioters???
Point well-taken!
You're right they're both completely in the wrong doing what they're doing.
However, the truth is police officers are supposed to have a higher sense of right and wrong then your average citizens.
So I ask again; what moral compass directs you to think it's okay to not only take pictures of someone's loved ones final moments on this earth, but then to braggadociously share them as trophies???
I only pray for the sake of society that you are not responsible for guiding any young minds into adulthood.😐

Word is that the LA Sheriffs have a gang with it the thin blue brotherhood so that bartender should plan his move out of La as his life is in danger by the rest of the so call brotherhood (I thought only gangs use colors such as thin blue and use words such as brotherhoods to describe those that are down or within the inner circle) interesting to see those that swore to protect the constitution and the public at large be involved in gangsters verbiage

I've seen the pictures
Humans can be emotionless, careless, and unemotional
That a member of law enforcement (or ANY decent human) could do this makes you wonder what ELSE he could do. Or NOT do something he was supposed to do. Good people do NOT do this. You don't really CARE about people if you can do this.
I'm a supporter of law enforcement and I believe the only thing wrong with law enforcement is that they have to recruit from the human race! But always wondered when you read about others joining in wrong or unlawful activities whether or not ANYONE is capable of doing horrible things given the right situation or opportunity. Like gang rapes or murders where there's more than one killer involved.
I have to go find some happy stories to read or watch. God bless all the good people!

Extremely disrespectful
It wasn't just first responders and their respective departments that were involved, it went well beyond them, healthcare, doctors, lawyers, etc many were involved... And their cover up was extensive
Something is truly wrong with the human race. Since social media people can’t wait to be the first to show graphic photos. There is truly no respect for the victims families. The that these are law enforcement officers doing this is very disturbing. They should be held accountable for their actions. When individuals are in the position of law enforcement or the medical field they are held to a higher standard. My heart goes out to the families.

It's sick that a deputy would do that. And then people wonder why cops get hated on. Some of the people the hire onto the force are pathetic.

I was a fire fighter and we would have been fired! Plus that is a sick person! They should be put in jail for that! A disgrace to the men who help
What a great example of a human heart! Well done, you are an inspiration. If you see something, say something.
He’s a good, empathetic person. Need more people like him in this world! ❤️👏
I understand a dark humor being a requirement for officers and others who deal with traumatic situations and death on a daily basis. Without it or another healthy way to cope a person would turn to drugs and possibles additional negative coping mechanisms.
However, the deputy’s behavior is much more than a coping mechanism! What he did was more similar to psychopathic behavior.
first responders have lived this reality of death everyday even more so with covid-19 they don't always see how disgusting their behavior is because they are numbed. First responders are 10 times more likely to attempt suicide then the public, and are more likely to die form suicide then the line of duty. I seen people say "well they shouldn't be an officer or they need better training" no training in the world will fix these issues what they need is consoling I don't think we should bash them for this, yes they did wrong but we need to help them see it.
@Tomasino Romano that was the 90s and we both know the 90s was a different time either way you can just say all officers do just because of the people you dealt with
@Tomasino Romano So 906,037 LEO show up at your neighbor doorstep? Yeah I ain't surprised their are professionals that do this stuff I even witnessed it my self but seriously not all officers are the same? And I am coming form a military and first responder background too and who are you to say they are worthless when you say you sold it to them honestly if you really though about it without drug dealers the world would be semi better then what it is now...I aint here argue about the morals of drug dealing but you enable this and still call them worthless? kind of hypocritical if you ask me.
Just imagine all the regular people that died around these first responders… reminds me of Porsche girl on Orange County toll roads.

They do this. Why are People surprised? You didn't want to listen to the People who was trying to whisteblow on all the Police abuses but you said "They all are not like that" Ok. They ALL fall in line.
Thank You for speaking up May God continue to bless you and your family🦋❤️🌹✝️🙏
🙏🏼
Where the pictures I wanna see
That’s so messed up & sad. They did the same with Jenni’s remains when she passed in that plane crash.
Surprised too? They all do it. But the bootlickers are quick to chime in "They all not like that". The good ones are never around & vocal when the Police abuses start. Society will reap what it sows.
Who's Jenni?

I'm glad this man was present that night, our Heavenly Father is ALWAYS right on time. Right place, right moment. Many blessings, Sir!
He really is always where we need him most 😇
...... well except when the helicopter crashed and killed all those innocent people. But that was surely a fluke
He’s an attention seeker and nothing more.
The sheriff that flaunted the photos should be fired. You did a great thing I'm sure Vanessa is very grateful to you.
There are so many video of dead bodies from car accidents, shootings, drowning and so much more on RUclips . I alway hope that the family and friends never see them because they are so graphic.
You did the right thing Ralph. Wish there was more people like this in the world. Others would just see the pictures and go on about their day. But just imagine the pain these families have gone thru. I’m glad Vanessa is fighting for this. This was her husband and most importantly her baby girl. If anyone would do this to my family I would go after them myself!
End qualified immunity, my tax dollars should not be wasted paying for stupid public servants
This is why I don't buy the "just a few bad apples" logic. I don't think all cops are corrupt but time and time again we see at the least that they don't hold other cops accountable for bad behavior. It took a civilian to hear about it to put an end to it. So if they're willing to make light of a major tragedy of course they'll do anything else to regular people
Wow! I can't believe law enforcement could do something vile and disrespectful. (SARCASM AT THE HIGHEST LEVEL).
Thank You! Exactly. People been trying to talk about ALL the Police abuses but the other half are quick to say "They are all not like that." Notice how the good ones are NEVER around or vocal when the Police Abuses start because they ALL fall in line. Society will reap what it sows.
Regular citizens would have likely done the same
@@honorablegigachad6946 okay? They aren’t public figures there to “protect and serve”
@@jacobloving6765 Are you somehow convinced that them taking a picture is affecting their ability to "protect and serve"?
I feel sorry for Vanessa! But if she was an average person this case would have not gone this far! I hope the millions she get from this case she share it with all the other families that lost loves ones in the crash, whose pictures were also shared (but I seriously doubt it).
Why would she need to share any money with the other families? They can sue as well and some of them have already sued and got settlements. 🤦🏽♂️
Hang in there Vanessa hopefully this nightmare will end soon we all love you may God give you strength
Lmao she’s rich and you’re poor she’s doing alright
@@lylemorgan6107 just because she's has money doesn't mean shes emotionally mentally ok .Vanessa is very strong im sure she has her moments were she breaks down.
it"s no surprise. when you know what people are capable of, you'll never be surprised at the inappropriate things that most will continuously do and say to and about others. Half the time those that practice such behaviors believe that they're behavior is some kind of secret and is unknown.
@Rob Wright yeah and the people that tour the captiol on the 6th of January last year 😔
Keep this man safe
How hard is it NOT to be a sociopath? Sue them!! Ralph Mendez is an example of how you act like a decent human being. These were people. Show some dignity and humanity and decency.
We must protect that incredible whistleblower at all costs😭
It's odd that Vanessa Bryant is shocked that photos were shown then she gets to sit in a courtroom and watch those very photos. And then claim she's traumatized by them. But here's a thought - crime scenes have to be photographed for evidence. If she wins her zillions of dollars, it's likely that that practice will lessen (what officer will risk it?). Therefore criminals will not be as prosecuted for lack of evidence and they'll go free. And all because Mr. Bryant elected to take a helicopter to save an hour of driving on the freeway. How'd that work out, Kobe?
Showing crime scene pictures to randoms at a bar has nothing to do with TAKING crime scene pictures for the court proceedings & medical purposes. Who tf is going to be scared to take crime scene photos because this guy got in trouble for showing them off at a bar for bragging rights?
@@floflo8153 Who 's going to be scared? How about anyone who now knows that they and their organization can be successfully sued for tens of millions of dollars.
@@darz3829
What were they sued for?
@@floflo8153 Yesterday Vanessa Bryant and another plaintiff just won their suit for 31 million dollars, primarily for the possibility of future breaking a law (not actually doing that). If that's not scary I can't say what is.
Great job for reporting him
It’s disgusting that the police department and fire department did not discipline their employees, and these are suppose to be our heroes. Some first responders simply do not deserve praise
Thank you for having the courage to speak out against this injustice.
Why would someone laugh about something so tragic?! Unbelievable!
Mr. Mendez, Thank you…
