Wrong vehicle model, wrong vehicle color, wrong license plate number, wrong number of vehicle occupants . . . but the driver's ethnic race matched that of the suspect.
😂 This is why we need gun control so only cops can be armed only & black people can relax & do as they are told by cops & law abiding armed white citizens.
They always do that.... contradicting commands. Its almost like they are trained to do that, so that in any possible outcome, they can say 'the officer gave them this command or that command'... never mind that other officers were yelling a completely different command at the same time.
@mikep1085 they're 100% trained to do that. Just like they're trained to always scream "stop resisting" when arresting someone so they can have witnesses claim they heard them and the bodycam will pick it up. It became quite obvious to me when I saw bodycam footage of pigs screaming "stop resisting" at a corpse.
The arrogance of that scumbag officer to say "look at me" with a tone of authority is typical for whenever a goofball minimizes h/her mistske! $UE!!!!!!
you know he was just looking for a reason to slam him back down on the ground and charge him with resisting/assault/impeding. Just look at that rabid tyrant. I feel sorry for his wife.
Genuine question: why are cops encouraged to threaten people in a stressful situation? They threatened to shoot someone in the head and there’s so many videos where they automatically threaten to kill people they’ve detained in non life threatening situations
If you or I pointed a gun at an innocent person and threatened to shoot them, we would be charged with a crime. So why are these cops held to a lower standard than the average citizen???
Genuinely surprised they didn't get him on a bunch of bogus charges to cover their mistake, and keep him tied up fighting the charges for a couple of years +
Fear no man !! No need to watch his back. That sounds like fear. I’ll do the same thing if I was in his shoes and still go on with my life walking around. God is the only person I Fear!!!
When told they had the wrong car, the one loud mouth cop answered "No, it's not, CN." Can you imagine how many car plates in that state start with CN? But that's all that loose cannon needed to pull someone over and put the poor guy through all of that. Then when trying to explain his way out to the guy he said "the plates match, two of the numbers were off." So they didn't match.
They do insure they can read, you can't take the exam without reading, stop. Y'all are crazy if you think folks can join the academy without reading. They need to teach folks how to pay attention to details, like actually examining the entire vehicle plate.
Read the Supreme Court case ruling in Jordan vs New London. American law enforcement agencies can ,and do, legally discriminate against applicants if they score to high in tests that measure IQ and critical thinking skills. Modern American law enforcement prefers trigger pullers over Einsteins.
OK, if someone threatens to shoot me in the head and he's screaming like a madman, someone with less presence of mind than this man might duck, and would they shoot? What a stupid thing to scream like a maniac during a tense situation. Another thing, I'd have been tempted to tell those other officers that a stupid officer who was careless got them in this situation. They can't trust him from this point.
If you watch the full body cam lead officer on site takes full responsibility and gives the man his card says it’s on him, not one other officer says anything. I give the one burly guy props not gonna lie he understood what he did.
@mieshta6607 yeah he should've been the one apologizing, he was the gung ho hero cop screaming that he'd shoot the guy in the head in the beginning and the one that when told by his subordinates that it was the wrong car/plates he tried to argue before actually walking behind the car and looking 😂😂 he was the most egregious and unhinged throughout the interaction 💯
@vblic Yes .name me another job that has qualified immunity for mistakes or accidents or my bads. Over 1k citizens killed by cops annually..approximately 400 cops killed..majority by suicide or shitty driving. It's not even in the top 20 of dangerous jobs. Thanks for your opinion though officer.
0:44 i swear if i were him and i heard from a policeman "imma shoot you in the HEAD if you come up with anything other than that" i'd froze in terrifying fear and would be traumatized for the rest of my life
*His car wasn’t even in park at first so just imagine if he would of panicked and the car rolled towards the officer and they would of opened fire on him, this is exactly why he should sue*
Im a retired County Law Enforcement Officer in West Michigan, Ottawa County. I get on Rare occasions We can pull over the wrong suspect. But its HOW we handle it during ANY STOP. These officers were so wrong in their methods.
…or their taxpayers. But, this is not uncommon. In fact, part of YOUR tax increase pays for this in your municipality. When you get your next tax bill, it will almost certainly include extra that you wouldn’t normally pay to pay for police lawsuits. It won’t be itemized as such, but it’s there.
The military is the well regulated militia, regulated by the govt, while the people are free to keep and bear arms. The Bill of Rights limits the govt, not the people, which is why it states, "A well regulated Militia being necessary to the security of a free State", ie 'since we need a military to keep the country safe', "The right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed", ie 'since that well regulated army may be turned on the people}. The govt regulates the militia/military while the right of the people shall not be infringed.
They threatened to take his life if he made one bad move. Then they try to act like no harm no foul . No one got arrested or assaulted. That mindset has to stop. They need to recognize that a man almost died
Remember when that hotel worker called the police for a white man with a gun in the officer ended up drawing his weapon on every single person that he came across...... Then the officer eventually came across a black man on a bicycle..... He tried to detain and arrest that black man and the black man ended up running..... When the officer went back to the counter of the hotel..... The hotel worker saw on camera the office are going after a black man and he even screamed at the officer that you're supposed to be looking for a white man Why are you trying to arrest my employee.
"My man" NOTHING! Couldn't have stated it more eloquently myself!!! He wasn't "your man" when you threatened to "shoot him in the head," and lied about his plates "matching" a suspect's, when bodycam clearly shows that it didn't!
Even if he was the suspect, once his hands were out the window and him stepping out, threats of " shooting someone in the head" was totally inappropriate 😒
50K? That's paltry and reprehensible. It should've been 500K. None of this would've happened if they'd ran the plate before approaching with guns drawn. Given that they were searching for a shooting suspect, why would they leave their patrol vehicles and antagonize him? If they had found said shooter he might've started blasting when they pulled him over or when they pointed their guns at him. Being told "Imma shoot you in the head" can leave mental scars on people.
We need both individual state and a NATIONAL referendums on: 1) Ending Qualified Immunity and the granting of such immunity on a LIMITED case by case basis; 2) All payouts for ALL cases of LEO misconduct comes from officer pension funds and liability insurance policies; 3) Creation of LEO Liability insurance that is no different from Medical liability that physician must carry that LEO must have so that once their pension has been depleted, the liability insurance kicks in, decreasing the risk of LEO misconduct passed onto the tax payer.
I just recently called this police department to complain about the officers following me through the town in the middle of the night while I'm on my way to work as I am an overnight worker. I always set my Cruise control to the speed limit and i'm sure to have all of my safety functions in order. This department's officers will literally harass you through their town, However, the sergeant I spoke with was very nice and did say he would communicate this issue with his officers.
U damn right,Woodridge will follow u around like a thief if u are of black or brown color,the other day they follow me so match I started checking to make sure i had not stolen someone’s car by accident,oh and don’t forget Bolingbrook they will harass u if u are u know what.U are telling the TRUTH
He might be nice on the phone. But most likely just good at covering for his officers which looking at their behavior makes that likely. Hopefully he is just a nice guy.
Cop literally says to this gentleman, "Plates matched, but two of them were off." Community college degree + badge + gun = this LEOs get an hour of education on the constitution and then they can point guns at people's heads.
They never think they did anything wrong, will never hold themselves accountable. Oh, and hey reporters - thier statement that you posted without questioning it is pure BS - acting on information they had at the time??? - BS!!! - the officers notepad had the license plate # on it and possibly other identifying info so they had the right information, they just chose NOT to verify it before coming out guns drawn and traumatizing an innocent man. You just perpetuated their lies because nobody dares question what the police say. If you want be journalists THEN BE journalists, not some sycophantic mouthpiece for an incompetent organization.
I support law enforcement, but you HAVE to make sure you have the right suspect when you have that detailed information. Additionally, one officer didn’t issue commands to ensure safety, he threatened deliberate murder for non compliance. The Woodridge taxpayers will foot a MAJOR lawsuit bill for this one. A LOT of retraining is necessary with this bunch.
They do that because they are told to do whatever they want and they will be protected and you can tell that by their statement. “They acted on the information they had” no they did not, non of the information matched, zero of it. That means they ignored the information they had and acted on adrenaline and the need for a rush. They train as if it’s a mortal combat game, with laughter and high fives afterwards so when the real thing happens they have no idea how to act.
correction, the police insurance policy will pay out any settlement, not the city with taxes they collect. If it happens repeatedly the insurance will drop them and if they can't get insurance they will be forced to disband the police.
This is so not shocking.. The bullying, oath breaking, rights violating law enforcement these days are completely out of control! Bad apples, top to bottom.. 😡
BS! Before you stop a vehicle check year, make, model, color and license plate. If they do not match, dont stop the vehicle. Then telling this person to look at him and not apoligise,
They have all the information they need at their fingertips but of course even when the consequences of getting it wrong is killing or traumatising someone innocent that isn't a good enough reason to actually double check before they turn on their lights. They simply don't view putting you in danger as a good enough reason to do that
What is it with cops not doing their due diligence? They're so set on arresting someone, they just jump on whatever opportunity they can get to arrest anyone.
Vehicle the wrong color, wrong model, wrong plate, wrong number of occupants...and they wonder why we don't trust them. Complete and utter incompetence.
Wrong vehicle type.. wrong vehicle color... wrong plate. And they STILL pulled him out of the vehicle at gunpoint. You don't get an "I'm sorry" for that. You get to say : "I'm clearly too incompetent and insecure to continue in any position of trust" and sign an official admission that closes any lawsuit.
Under no circumstances should a cop threaten to shoot someone in the head.. The wrong type of car, the wrong color of the car and the wrong license plate, SMH
Cop///Cops threatened to MURDER HIM!! They should be charged accordingly!! Officers acted based on information available at the time which they had the APPROPRIATE INFO and YET STOPPED THE VEHICLE OF AN INNOCENT DRIVER AND THREATENED TO END HIS LIFE!!!!
"the cops were acting on information available at the time" - More lies and coverup BS. No, they were NOT acting on the information they had because if they were they wouldn't have stopped a car that is the wrong color, model, and license plate. The officer himself said it in the body cam video...
I live in downers Grove and black if u drive in Darien,Woodridge,Bolingbrook,lemont,Westmont,your ass better make sure u got ur seat belt on and following all road rules or they will follow ur ass till they get u with anything,oh and u better not drive with expired tags black people they will pull u over
Wrong vehicle model, wrong vehicle color, wrong license plate number, wrong number of vehicle occupants . . . but the driver's ethnic race matched that of the suspect.
Driving While Black (DWB)!
Sounds like a case of “any black

😂 This is why we need gun control so only cops can be armed only & black people can relax & do as they are told by cops & law abiding armed white citizens.
With those lack of skills it makes me wonder how they find there own cars in a parking lot...
"Open & shut case, Johnson!!!" - Dave Chappelle
They threatened to shoot the guy in the head
That's aggravated battery and all of them should be charged as such.
@@richgeshel8735 They had no lawful reason to point a gun at this innocent man. I agree with you. No different if I did that to a random person.
@@richgeshel8735 in some places that would be considered assault with a deadly weapon
I mean even in fucking GTA the cop who says that shit gets told to shut up
No the Brotha did 🤨
We all know none of these cops were punished in any way by their PD.
I'm sure they investigated themselves, and found no wrongdoing..... 🤦♂
Exactly
The scariest part was you had multiple police officers with guns pointed at his head, giving contradictory commands. He could have died that day.
Didn't learn from Daniel Shaver
I was thinking about the same thing. He was crying begging for his life when they shot him FIVE TIMES.
They always do that.... contradicting commands. Its almost like they are trained to do that, so that in any possible outcome, they can say 'the officer gave them this command or that command'... never mind that other officers were yelling a completely different command at the same time.

For compliance
Because they hide behind qualified immunity they can do what they want
Cops are psychopaths who are willing to use violence against anyone at any time for any reason.
Dude almost lost his life cause these idiots didn’t know how to do their job properly.
They knew
You would think these guys might double check things before threatening to kill someone.
They are laughing at us and médias in their police station office. You and us taxpayers paid the bills, more traffics tickets to paid
@@mapool1485yup they do not care even a little bit .
Right?! Like house numbers and license plates 🙄. Bunch of incompetent clowns.
pisssshhh possshhhh...thats why pencils have erasers
There is absolutely no situation, that the police can't make worse.
The money should come from the police pension. This needs to STOP .
Yes ! Good way to stop this !
I've been saying this for years..
Threatening to murder someone should be a felony, police or not. They should be fired and jailed.
If you or I pointed a gun at an innocent person and threatened to shoot them, we would be charged with a crime. So why are these cops held to a lower standard than the average citizen???
Wrong model. Wrong colour. Wrong driver. Wrong plates
It is laughable but they got EVERYTHING wrong! There are so many cops but no of them checked first BEFORE making the arrest.
just black!
Genuinely surprised they didn't get him on a bunch of bogus charges to cover their mistake, and keep him tied up fighting the charges for a couple of years +
Honestly surprised he was arrested for something
"The plates match!"
No. No they don't. Stop lying officer
He was very sure of himself.
He better watch his back now -- and his wife, too -- since he's suing.
He just needs to move
Because, yeah, I'll bet they have no trouble identifying the vehicle they want to target. Suing the cops is risky business on it's own.
Guaranteed retaliation.
Or they can just take the L and let it be. Harassing him would be the dumbest thing they could do.
Fear no man !! No need to watch his back. That sounds like fear. I’ll do the same thing if I was in his shoes and still go on with my life walking around. God is the only person I Fear!!!
1:20
A threatening apology with copslaining. Gee, what a surprise.
Why did it take a year for the body cam to come out
They hate transparency.
Because it makes them look bad, and they know that people have short attention spans.
Whenever they’re in the wrong it takes forever for them to release the footage but when they’re in the right they release it right away
Because the longer they delay the release of the video, the hope is that the victim will get discouraged and give up.
The only criteria that matched was the suspect was black.
Obviously
🎯...AS USUAL
💯
All that mattered to them
Investigated themselves and found no wrong doing.
When told they had the wrong car, the one loud mouth cop answered "No, it's not, CN." Can you imagine how many car plates in that state start with CN? But that's all that loose cannon needed to pull someone over and put the poor guy through all of that. Then when trying to explain his way out to the guy he said "the plates match, two of the numbers were off." So they didn't match.
Imagine being told you’ll be shot in the head. Had to be scary
The officers were reprimanded with a promotion and increase in pay
Justifying the hate with every interaction.
Nothing will change until these lawsuit payouts come from the officers and not the taxpayers!
Taxpayers can change this by voting out the people who are responsible for hiring.
They really need to ensure cops can read and write before they let them out on the street!!!!!
Reading a must
Something that was ignored before the stop.
...Jason Bourne struggled remembering L A N D Y
They do insure they can read, you can't take the exam without reading, stop. Y'all are crazy if you think folks can join the academy without reading. They need to teach folks how to pay attention to details, like actually examining the entire vehicle plate.
@@rondas7772 nice try

Cities shouldn't have to pay for cops mistakes. They should go after the police pension funds. I bet you things like this would stop happening.
If they would be locked up for life or the other thing they would stop this from ever happening again
@GrandMasterLynx qualified immunity is a joke too
I'm really starting to believe that if you fail to do simple tasks in life that automatically qualifies you to be a police officer
Read the Supreme Court case ruling in Jordan vs New London. American law enforcement agencies can ,and do, legally discriminate against applicants if they score to high in tests that measure IQ and critical thinking skills. Modern American law enforcement prefers trigger pullers over Einsteins.

They have all the information they need at their fingertips but of course even when the consequences of getting it wrong is killing or traumatising someone innocent that isn't a good enough reason to actually double check before they turn on their lights. They simply don't view putting you in danger as a good enough reason to do that
when they mess up, not a big deal...you mess up you go to jail. mind blowing

Now imagine if this happened in Mississippi, this would’ve never came out, the police probably would’ve killed him and no one would have known.
Like the way the cop that screwed up started getting aggressive with him after his release!!! WTF!!
Apparently reading and comprehension aren't required to be a police officer.
The statement was so clear that they were not going to take responsibility for their actions.
They keep telling you they have the most important job in our society, yet it's the only one with no repercussions at all for screwing up.
