Cover te arrest of Travis Heinze on lets exchange IDs, he is a veteran and stood in a library and didnt ID fast enoough for no crimes and spent 9 days in jail
I had to check the date on this video like 3 times, because I kept seeing the jack-o-lantern colors of your dress. And then the candy corn necklace. Got excited and thought maybe another year flew by somehow, and it was Halloween again. But no luck, you do look nice though. Thank's for doing what you do.
I was once getting stopped multiple times a week walking home from work. Then I got a car and after a peaceful lull I got pulled over for doing 35 in a 25 zone. After that I began getting stopped multiple times a week, half the time searching my car. Then they came to my job for something unrelated to me but when they saw me switched their whole focus to me, asking my boss if they could tap their phone, he declined, they said they didn't need the phone anyway, then left. I have no criminal history, I was 21 at the time, and for the most part lived a normal live. I'm white, fwiw, and I'm respectfully compliant every time I'm stopped. My boss advised me to stop that and take some rights classes, so I did. Obviously this continues, tickets when applicable applied, but I began flexing my rights when they crossed the line. Their Sargent got to know me, and he'd show up whenever he heard my name to deescalate and let me go. Then 1 week I get stopped and ticketed for a taillight. So I fix the bulb. 2 days later I get stopped for a taillight. It wasn't blown but they wanted to search my car. I did the rights thing so they called k9. K9 found nothing so they asked to search again. I said no, he got mad and got the dog again, this time he banged my car while speaking German to the dog. It barked. He said it found something and asked to search again. I reminded him a k9 indication is probable cause to search so they don't need my permission. He called me lawyer boy, and put me in his car cuffed. That's when things got interesting. They ripped holes in the underside of my car. Then after 2 cops plain view searched my car the 3rd cop, the k9 cop, leaned in my driver side window and pulled out what he said was a pot seed in a tiny tiny bag. He said it was in plain view on my driver's seat and when I asked why the other 2 cops didn't find it he said he's just better than them. 1yr probation, $1000 fine, 1 seed that wasn't mine. The lawyer advised I just take the plea deal (before the days of body cams). When a cop asks you to step out of your car always put the windows up and close the door behind you. They will usually try to grab the door before you can do that so just politely and naively excuse yourself and say you are trying to close the door.
There are also good cops who saved many people from abuse, or from medical issues. Some cop does videos about it. Another cop said he was fighting about the mandatory tickets. In some departments they required cops to write a certain number of tickets every day for example 5 or 6...so the other cops have to write the same amount of tickets to prove that they do their job correctly, which some cops thought its nonsense because cops do also other stuff than writing tickets. And he said together with some other cop, he won the battle with the department and the city. Another cop said we are not required to write tickets if it's not necessary.. we write them only if a person has drugs in the car as proof for the court, etc. and he said some cops never write tickets in several years, or rarely.
It's not the system that is corrupt, it is the cops, prosecutors and judges manipulating the system. Cops/ judges get pulled over for DUI and get driven home, the citizens get fined and jail time.
Any cop who deliberately attempts to ruin the life of an innocent citizen on bulls*t, fabricated charges should be fired and charged with a crime, in addition to paying monetary restitution for his victim.
_What policy allows the police to arbitrarily detain someone for walking down a side-street with no sidewalk? I hope he sues and keeps us updated._ - no policy. The officer only has to be reasonable in his suspicions. _I hope he sues and keeps us updated._ - you probably don't realize that so far it's him who is being tried by the state.
@@ziggenplays1208 Sure - the crime being walking in the middle of the road. By the way, I thought that the state is charging him only with refusing to identify, but in fact that are also charging with walking in the roadway. It's hard to imagine that DA would go ahead for such an obvious defeat in court if the street did not really have the sidewalk.
As a former journalist in television, radio and periodicals, your work and reporting style is a breath of fresh air at a time when the “mainstream” media is in the business of force fed garbage. Great job to you and your team. Keep up the good work !!
Judges caused this by being so lax with police officers who perjure themselves regularly on the stand. Many judges prefer to just believe what they know is a lie because it keeps them all in business.
Cops get fired if they refuse to lie on the stand and just say what the DA tells them to say I mean they typically don't have any issue with it I think a cop made a stink about it once
Police create crimes when there is no criminal activity. For departments, it means more revenue and job security. For the poor unsuspecting citizen, it means a criminal record and/or unnecessary dealings with the system. This is self perpetuating cycle that transcends throughout our society and must stop!
Exactly and they especially target people who film them. ruclips.net/video/iHFphaK6-mc/видео.html This idiot chose to harass me vs contacting his suspect. Who had a skateboard. He lied about the suspect description then implied I had to leave public property. These maggots have this down. He implies he gave me a criminal trespass warning, then lies to another officer over the radio. The other officer will come along assume He can now arrest me based off the other jerks lies. (They do not even consider it's public property and he can't trespass me for filming in public) Multiple arrests for this here at 515 s. Frio by SAPD. Multiple dismissed charges, yet the jerk offs keep doing it. I had to call him out and get his stupervisor to re affirm I could be where I was. Worse his stupervisor lied and said I matched the suspect description. Another Sgt confirmed they both lied. I pulled the call. First thing I found suspicious was who put in the call to dispatch. A police Sgt. Yes that's right, instead of confronting the alleged suspect he calls it in. Because what he called in lacked Ras or PC to detain. Male ringing doorbell at magistrates. Has skateboard appears intoxicated. (If he did in fact appear intoxicated why didn't the Sgt contact him?). Blue lie bullshit. Cops inventing crime. The funny part is when I told internal affairs I had footage of this idiot officer ignoring his actual suspect and focusing on me for filming. I said run his bodycam... You know the one that by policy he turned on before making contact with me,,, you will see the real suspect on that bodycam. Or you will see he chose not to turn on his bodycam and we know why. So he can lie about the contact with me. Dirty pygs covering dirty pygs
The politicians in our towns and cities are the employers of the police. The town / city councillors the Mayors the people WE elect are all responsible for the way our police act they can fire the police chief and the cops if they want to . Think about that the next time local councillors and the Candidates for Mayor DA County sheriffs any one seeking a position of power in a public office are asking for your vote .
I think they must feel it, every time they come back from a patrol with nothing to report they can just feel their job hanging in the balance. I can see how they'd be more worried about losing their job from NOT making bogus arrests.
🌶You the people paying their salary with your tax dollars must stop this unlawful parasitic police activity. 🌶The powerful and wealthy Police Unions and the abusive police officers, NOT TAXPAYERS, must pay compensation for k!illing innocent citizens and violating citizens’ civil rights. 🌶Citizens must say loudly: "NOT IN MY NAME“ and “NOT WITH MY TAX DOLLARS!"
I wish they would stop calling these illegal arrests. Obviously you can't be arrested for not walking on a sidewalk that isn't there. There can be no mistake theref the man was kidnapped and the officer needs to be charged with kidnapping and the other officer aiding a kidnapping.
“I don’t know who you are…” Says the racist cop fabricating a BS crime and giving another weak excuse to arrest rather than assist. A lot of-this is about the character of the recruits to be cops. Protect and serve is ignored and too many seem to have the thug mentality that almost seems to be prerequisite and encouraged as the lack of accountability in many cases shows. We all know that in cases there citizens perform same crimes they would face life changing criminal punishments; cops with qualified immunity frequently get away with paid vacations, ready to find employment in neighbouring counties.
Officers should have to pay restitution on all these false charges, time spent and trauma. It's just ridiculous the things they do when common sense can tell it's simply wrong.
Mr. Davis seems like a nice, decent guy. I'm extremely sorry this happened to him. Police everywhere are getting worse, not better. They have turned America into a tyrannical police state which is only getting worse even when cameras are everywhere.
That is because politicians (all of them, it isnt party specific) want it that way, if it is hard for you to make a life for yourself you are far more likely to commit a crime, they call it a revolving door for a reason. Plus politicians make a lot of money off of this system, and over 80% of our politicians are lawyers. Then you have the actual laws which give exemptions to police, prosecutors, judges, etc. qualified immunity from doing wrong so there are no real meaningful consequences when they get caught. It is a perfect system for the rich fat cat politicians, police, judges and prosecutors, but the citizens are on their own. Thus is why I call it the Just Us System.
The idea is to make the rest of his life miserable. Otherwise, once you have been punished by society you shouldn't have to be subject to a special treatment because of your past. Sorry this has nothing to do with justice.
They 100 percent don't care. And neither do the judges, and neither does Congress. It's not even up for debate. They pass arbitrary laws to keep the working class productive, controlled, and eating their foods and medicines. The result of which are police humiliating, degrading, beating, killing. Courts costing fees no average person could ever afford. Onto jails that they know for a fact don't work. Don't deter crimes, make it worse in fact. Don't fix people, break them, and often the people didn't need fixing to begin with. They don't sit around discussing this because they know damn well. It's us who rack our brains trying to understand why they do it, trying to find some sort of motive behind it. Because they must have designed it this way for a reason, right? They can't all be evil, can they? Every single one of them knows it, just like you know it, just like I know it, it's a forgone conclusion and they use your reasonability as a shield.
i remember another video not long ago where the guy was arrested for not being on a sidewalk that wasn't there. that guy was filming an arrest taking place and they harassed him for that, told him to get off the street. but like this current video, stepping off the street puts you trespassing onto someone's private property.
I've had this happen to me and a few friends walking home from school when we were about 13. We were all on the sidewalk, it turned into dirt, and then picked up again within about 20 feet. A cop stopped in the middle of the road and SCREAMED at us to get on the sidewalk. We were all in the dirt, not the road. I pointed at the sidewalk and screamed back that we were. I've also been pulled over for things that never happened. These cops harass people out of not just bigotry, but boredom. I yelled at every one of them, but Lucky for me, I look white.
he HAS to move after reaching some type of settlement and getting permission from the state to be free to move to another state again. terre was nearly lynched, and he wouldn't be the first (by a long shot), nor the last. Praise Be To Live Feeds.
@@orinlee6123 makes a good point. BTW, Indiana is the home to the worse record for the mass incarceration of white folks so I dont think it would be a stretch to believe black folks might receive less desireable treatment.
The cop has no qualified immunity in this case, there is absolutely no way he can claim a "good faith arrest" because he clearly understood the statute he claimed he was arresting the guy for!
They will probably come after me for saying this, however, here in Terre Haute, IN we are in desperate need of some type of help with how CORRUPT our officers and goverment officials are. They are so horrible to ALL of us. I was pulled over for absolutely nothing, I was door dashing and he was following me and once I spoke to him, he came up with many excuses such as I was supposedly going 50 in a 30 which was untrue and when I defended that he said well why are you driving around and turning around when you saw me, I showed him my phone and said sir, I am door dashing, and he said okay, makes sense and ran all my stuff and then never had a reason to ticket me or arrest me, which proves to me its bull because had i REALLY been speeding I would have been ticketed or jailed for that speed, but I assume since he knows door dash tracks me and my other tracking app as well he coudlnt prove it. They always judge people on their looks as well and rough up people based on their looks. We are all afraid of these officers and we need help.
The power to take a man away from his family for not using a sidewalk is truly an abuse of power. Where is the judge and jury to find this officer guilty of knowing what he is doing is against EVERYTHING he claims to stand for. If something is not done about the amount of power officers have been given to change the course of someone's life for the hell of it whether they've actually done something wrong or not, the harm to OUR communities will only increase. Even after this man explaining this interaction could send him back to prison for years he exhibited no remorse for the abuse of his badge. This officer had nothing but malintent toward this citizen from time they came into contact and definitely needs to be investigated for the countless undeserving men and women I'm sure he's taken away from their families for the economic benefit of himself and his department. What this citizen says about not being able to fight a case effectively while incarcerated is mostly true, if you're not rich and you don't have a Public Defender who actually cares about justice you're 🤬.
Actually the statute of limitation for a FEDERAL suit is 4 years from discovery of the violation...they are stalling so that he wont be able to do a state AND federal suit
I just called their department, and at 5:32 p.m., 3/25/22, and whoever the desk officer was, hung up on me, so, monday, I will call back to file a complaint against the officer for dereliction of duty, for hanging up on me, after I asked to talk to a public information officer. Also, it's insane to think that they have a city ordinance that an Officer can walk up to you and arrest you for not giving him/ her your name. That's a secondary charge, and no city ordinance can be written that overwrites the constitution, unless you live in Indiana. This story is absolutely disgusting!
You nailed it on the head Taya when you rightfully called today's policing a business when most believe that it is a service. It is suppose to be a service paid for by the tax payer but sadly this is not the case any more. We the people still fund it but get little in the way of actual service.
It was never really a service. Police exist to protect property, not to protect people. They don't even exist to protect or defend the law-they're perfectly willing to violate the law whenever it suits their purposes. All of this goes all of the way back to their early roots in slave patrols and Pinkerton strikebreakers.
The misconduct issue is never even covered by any news network. But, the fact that those cities don't even keep record of officers responsible for civil settlements is crazy.
I live in NYC where we have nothing but sidewalks and I constantly walk in the street because the roads are smoother and usually not filled with debris or detritus. I’ve never been stopped by cops or even had them look my way twice while doing so. This stop was most definitely a mission to catch a body.
Perception is everything . When you believe others have authority, you're giving them yours . The whole purpose of law is to trick you into validaring it .
A friend of mine is retired OPP, he retired in the late 80s. I've mentioned to him cases similar to this and he said back in the good old days of Policing, they would never arrest somebody for a petty crimes like this, it would be a waste of time, back in those days that's when Policing was dangerous. Nowadays, it's all about making their way up the ladder so to speak.
In nyc arrest/summons are used in performance reviews. top brass encourages the worst impulses via monthly quotas. Officer can make like 40 arrest month & only 10 go to trail with 5 convictions. 20 of those arrest charges was dropped/dismissed due to lack of evidence etc The Idea is ALL actively is good actively
In my fifty-three years of living, I could not name one instance when I was happy or relieved because a police officer appeared. Then, last year, I witnessed a vehicle/pedestrian collision where two girls were thrown sixty feet from the force of the impact. I used my flashlight and direct traffic around the victims and responders. Vehicles continued to approach the scene at high speeds so one of the bystanders moved his vehicle into the lane where the victims were to 'block' them from the approaching cars. When the cops arrived, I thought, "Finally, a time when I'm happy the police are here." One officer immediately began fishing, interrogating the driver, wanting to know why this vehicle was blocking the roadway. 🤷♂
@8:06 According to my youtube law degree, not only do they want the man to pay the $160, they also want him to admit guilt. If he pays the fine, means he is guilty, which means IA wont find anything wrong with the arrest, and the guy would have a harder time suing. Courts seem to bank on the fact that lawyers are not cheap, so at times it seems "better" just to accept guilt and pay the $160, rather than spend $2k to $3k in attorneys fees just to get case dismissed.
Precisely how they keep marginalized populations impoverished! Make it cheaper to just plead guilty, then you have a conviction on your record that affects your ability to secure a decent job for the rest of your life! Then you fall back on illegal activities in order to make enough money to survive, & welcome to the revolving door of American slave labor!
@@kurtwetzel154 My understanding is that even "no contest" counts as guilty without admitting guilt. Also why pay $160 when at the same time getting DA to agree to drop all charges. If all charges get dropped what would the fine be for?
@@CancunManny Good point on the fine as it's invalid. I was trying to think of a way for him to pay without pleading guilty. The charge should be dropped and nothing paid.

He's absolutely right! Terre Haute Indiana Police Department it's Outta control. As well as the Brazil Indiana Sheriff's Department. I personally have never been arrested. I witnessed Terre Haute and Brazil Indiana lie and makeup charges on a person very close to me. It really makes them mad when you videotape them.

Thank you for another great show PAR Taya and Stephen. This shows just how powerful LE really is. On a whim they can destroy families and lives. This is a bad arrest. The discretion LE has been given is so often abused. It seems that LE finds a way to abuse everything they were given to benefit The People. #FreeEricBrandt💔
These insane cops that think they can invent laws on the spot that don't exist like arresting someone for not walking on a sidewalk where there exists no such sidewalk.
Taya & Steven...I used to just watch the 1A videos but I really love the way you dissect the violations and you interview the victims of police misconduct. It's so informative and more personal. Thanks for all you do!

@@kevinforeman4485 no! Even the so called stop and id states … they have to have RAS of A CRIME ! They can’t just go to anybody and ask for papers in any state !! There is no state that pigs can stop you for no reason just to find out who u are , remember that!
@@kevinforeman4485 very easy to get that answer on google ….. I don’t have time to explain it here . In every state of usa a police officer has to have a ras of a crime that happened is happening or will happen ….no cop can go to a member of a public and demand id just to find out who they are ! Just entered in search why some states are called stop and id state…. And you will see all of the states on it and when cops can demand id
That man they beat up in jail should stand up for himself and take legal action against them. The elephant in the rooms behind all these dubious convictions are the District Attorney's who views these cases and make a conscious decision to move forward.
Depends on location. In Texas you are correct(provided a false name wasn't given)since its an offense after lawful arrest. Some have it as an offense from a detention. For those, failing to ID during a lawful detention can result in being charged with it. Since some people lack reading comprehension, I must mention. I'm not saying they were correct in this instance.
Recording doesn’t always do much because cops protect cops at all costs. I dated a retired cop who broke into my house after I broke up with him. I recorded the whole thing and sent it to the police station in my town. They said I should press charges… UNTIL they found out he was a cop, then they told me there was no case.
Exactly! The cop knows that NONE of those charges are going to stick and that his qualified immunity is going to kick in to cover his ass for this false arrest

I don't know how long I can take this, but I am going to subscribe because you are saying what people need to understand. This is so triggering for a survivor from police "help". God bless you.
If an officer doesn’t have body camera footage there shouldn’t be any charges made against the person. There’s literally no proof he committed a crime. It’s just he said she said. He made an arrest for a petty crime impeding on the rights of a fellow citizen and has no evidence that a crime was committed.
Moreover, he willfully violated the department for which he work's policy. If the cop turned the camera off, at the very least he should be charged with destruction of evidence and placed on the Brady list!
I have done the same thing for years walk along streets with no sidewalks so I don't walk in people's yards. It's more suspicious walking in yards at night.
why are you in prison? - for not walking on a non-existing footpath That is a rosy correctional centre, having officers bring in citizens on such whimsical charges

This is beyond disturbing and ridiculous. When will these tyrants be held accountable?! So sad to harrass this man and try to continue to ruin his life. They don't want people to be successful after a previous arrest. Prosecutors should be ashamed as well. All about the money. Very suspicious that his bodycam magically was turned off.

My brother was one arrested for being in a cab of a driver with an expired license. My brother had just picked up cash from me to pay the rent that day. Suddenly the money, My Money which I gave him, is confiscated for evidence. My brother was a passenger in a Cab, and ended up getting treated worse because out of the two of us, he's a dark-skinned minority where I tend to pass for white back then.
You was on paper sir. You should check to see if officers get a bonus for being able to send parolees back to prison by violating their parole. Or if they get some kind of recognition for it. Because I have seen a lot times where if a cop knows you are on probation or parole they will do anything they can to get you VIOLATED and sent back to prison
They are not officers, the are revenue agents for the corporation they work for. They have quotas to fill and that is why they are doing these arrests.
No, this cop was probably bored and was looking for someone to screw with that night...but when a crowd started forming he needed to cover his ass from this illegal stop so instead of him just walking away his ego clicked in and doubled down to the point of making this illegal arrest...knowing that the not walking on the sidewalk will have a snowball's chance in hell of flying so by default the failure to ID wont as well. Side note...I think they probably already dropped the Failure to ID charge because if all they are asking him to do is pay $140 then he isnt be prosecuted for a Class C misdemeanor

21:25 What kind of business? Gang business and it's systemic AND STARTS AT THE TOP. Not all police are bad but it's the bad ones that get highlighted. As in any other employment, bad employees need to be fired because they are damaging the trust of the public, for whom they have taken an oath to protect.

It sad when people are afraid to speak against the police because they fear retaliation.
Bull shit crimes in a bull shit country.

It's not just irrational fear, they do retaliate and can make your life a living hell.

Then 1 week I get stopped and ticketed for a taillight. So I fix the bulb. 2 days later I get stopped for a taillight. It wasn't blown but they wanted to search my car. I did the rights thing so they called k9. K9 found nothing so they asked to search again. I said no, he got mad and got the dog again, this time he banged my car while speaking German to the dog. It barked. He said it found something and asked to search again. I reminded him a k9 indication is probable cause to search so they don't need my permission. He called me lawyer boy, and put me in his car cuffed. That's when things got interesting.
They ripped holes in the underside of my car. Then after 2 cops plain view searched my car the 3rd cop, the k9 cop, leaned in my driver side window and pulled out what he said was a pot seed in a tiny tiny bag. He said it was in plain view on my driver's seat and when I asked why the other 2 cops didn't find it he said he's just better than them.
1yr probation, $1000 fine, 1 seed that wasn't mine. The lawyer advised I just take the plea deal (before the days of body cams). When a cop asks you to step out of your car always put the windows up and close the door behind you. They will usually try to grab the door before you can do that so just politely and naively excuse yourself and say you are trying to close the door.
A civil rights attorney would have a field day with this.

There are also good cops who saved many people from abuse, or from medical issues. Some cop does videos about it.
Another cop said he was fighting about the mandatory tickets. In some departments they required cops to write a certain number of tickets every day for example 5 or 6...so the other cops have to write the same amount of tickets to prove that they do their job correctly, which some cops thought its nonsense because cops do also other stuff than writing tickets. And he said together with some other cop, he won the battle with the department and the city. Another cop said we are not required to write tickets if it's not necessary.. we write them only if a person has drugs in the car as proof for the court, etc. and he said some cops never write tickets in several years, or rarely.

It's not the system that is corrupt, it is the cops, prosecutors and judges manipulating the system. Cops/ judges get pulled over for DUI and get driven home, the citizens get fined and jail time.
If the body camera is not turned on, automatically assume the cop is guilty of malfeasance.
This cop should be charged. A few months in custody would give him a different prospective.

_What policy allows the police to arbitrarily detain someone for walking down a side-street with no sidewalk? I hope he sues and keeps us updated._ - no policy. The officer only has to be reasonable in his suspicions.

Judges caused this by being so lax with police officers who perjure themselves regularly on the stand. Many judges prefer to just believe what they know is a lie because it keeps them all in business.
Police perjure themselves so often that the police themselves came up with a word for it, they call it testilying.
@@ronnieowen5557 just like they unvestigate alleged officer misconduct. Billions paid out but they never find fault or wrongdoing.

She is absolutly correct. Abd they like to keep the poor down knowing this black man dowb
Police create crimes when there is no criminal activity. For departments, it means more revenue and job security. For the poor unsuspecting citizen, it means a criminal record and/or unnecessary dealings with the system. This is self perpetuating cycle that transcends throughout our society and must stop!
Exactly and they especially target people who film them.

This idiot chose to harass me vs contacting his suspect. Who had a skateboard. He lied about the suspect description then implied I had to leave public property. These maggots have this down. He implies he gave me a criminal trespass warning, then lies to another officer over the radio. The other officer will come along assume He can now arrest me based off the other jerks lies. (They do not even consider it's public property and he can't trespass me for filming in public)
Multiple arrests for this here at 515 s. Frio by SAPD. Multiple dismissed charges, yet the jerk offs keep doing it.
I had to call him out and get his stupervisor to re affirm I could be where I was. Worse his stupervisor lied and said I matched the suspect description. Another Sgt confirmed they both lied. I pulled the call.
First thing I found suspicious was who put in the call to dispatch. A police Sgt.
Yes that's right, instead of confronting the alleged suspect he calls it in. Because what he called in lacked Ras or PC to detain. Male ringing doorbell at magistrates. Has skateboard appears intoxicated. (If he did in fact appear intoxicated why didn't the Sgt contact him?). Blue lie bullshit.
Cops inventing crime.
The funny part is when I told internal affairs I had footage of this idiot officer ignoring his actual suspect and focusing on me for filming.
I said run his bodycam... You know the one that by policy he turned on before making contact with me,,, you will see the real suspect on that bodycam.
Or you will see he chose not to turn on his bodycam and we know why. So he can lie about the contact with me.

It's a big part of keeping blacks from getting decent jobs and eliminating the black vote.
The politicians in our towns and cities are the employers of the police. The town / city councillors the Mayors the people WE elect are all responsible for the way our police act they can fire the police chief and the cops if they want to . Think about that the next time local councillors and the Candidates for Mayor DA County sheriffs any one seeking a position of power in a public office are asking for your vote .
I think they must feel it, every time they come back from a patrol with nothing to report they can just feel their job hanging in the balance. I can see how they'd be more worried about losing their job from NOT making bogus arrests.
🌶You the people paying their salary with your tax dollars must stop this unlawful parasitic police activity.
🌶The powerful and wealthy Police Unions and the abusive police officers, NOT TAXPAYERS, must pay compensation for k!illing innocent citizens and violating citizens’ civil rights.
🌶Citizens must say loudly: "NOT IN MY NAME“ and “NOT WITH MY TAX DOLLARS!"
I wish they would stop calling these illegal arrests. Obviously you can't be arrested for not walking on a sidewalk that isn't there. There can be no mistake theref the man was kidnapped and the officer needs to be charged with kidnapping and the other officer aiding a kidnapping.
I think being ticketed at all for walking in a neighborhood street is oppression at it's finest.
“I don’t know who you are…” Says the racist cop fabricating a BS crime and giving another weak excuse to arrest rather than assist. A lot of-this is about the character of the recruits to be cops.

We all know that in cases there citizens perform same crimes they would face life changing criminal punishments; cops with qualified immunity frequently get away with paid vacations, ready to find employment in neighbouring counties.
Officers should have to pay restitution on all these false charges, time spent and trauma. It's just ridiculous the things they do when common sense can tell it's simply wrong.
Why is this false charge? The guy was stopped and refused to give date of birth. Indiana IC 34-28-5-3.5 requires it. So it's a crime.

This is why it is so hard for a person that has been in prison to get their life back together.
That's the straight up truth. I watched my father continue to pay for his crime even after he did his time for years.
Mr. Davis seems like a nice, decent guy. I'm extremely sorry this happened to him. Police everywhere are getting worse, not better. They have turned America into a tyrannical police state which is only getting worse even when cameras are everywhere.
That is because politicians (all of them, it isnt party specific) want it that way, if it is hard for you to make a life for yourself you are far more likely to commit a crime, they call it a revolving door for a reason. Plus politicians make a lot of money off of this system, and over 80% of our politicians are lawyers. Then you have the actual laws which give exemptions to police, prosecutors, judges, etc. qualified immunity from doing wrong so there are no real meaningful consequences when they get caught. It is a perfect system for the rich fat cat politicians, police, judges and prosecutors, but the citizens are on their own. Thus is why I call it the Just Us System.

They 100 percent don't care. And neither do the judges, and neither does Congress. It's not even up for debate. They pass arbitrary laws to keep the working class productive, controlled, and eating their foods and medicines. The result of which are police humiliating, degrading, beating, killing. Courts costing fees no average person could ever afford. Onto jails that they know for a fact don't work. Don't deter crimes, make it worse in fact. Don't fix people, break them, and often the people didn't need fixing to begin with. They don't sit around discussing this because they know damn well. It's us who rack our brains trying to understand why they do it, trying to find some sort of motive behind it. Because they must have designed it this way for a reason, right?

i remember another video not long ago where the guy was arrested for not being on a sidewalk that wasn't there. that guy was filming an arrest taking place and they harassed him for that, told him to get off the street. but like this current video, stepping off the street puts you trespassing onto someone's private property.
I've had this happen to me and a few friends walking home from school when we were about 13. We were all on the sidewalk, it turned into dirt, and then picked up again within about 20 feet. A cop stopped in the middle of the road and SCREAMED at us to get on the sidewalk. We were all in the dirt, not the road. I pointed at the sidewalk and screamed back that we were. I've also been pulled over for things that never happened. These cops harass people out of not just bigotry, but boredom. I yelled at every one of them, but Lucky for me, I look white.
Thank you, as always you guys are amazing and you're changing the world

@@orinlee6123 makes a good point. BTW, Indiana is the home to the worse record for the mass incarceration of white folks so I dont think it would be a stretch to believe black folks might receive less desireable treatment.
I'm on this guy's side, but he needs to learn to keep his mouth shut. Be very careful what you say to cops.
This good brotha would make a great advocate! His logic is spot on and he makes his case very well👍🏾👌🏾✊🏾
The officer , when found it was a bad arrest . Should have to personally pay the bail , fines , and lawyer fees for the defendant
The cop has no qualified immunity in this case, there is absolutely no way he can claim a "good faith arrest" because he clearly understood the statute he claimed he was arresting the guy for!
Being incarcerated isn't "pretty -much like torture" it is ABSOLUTELY torture and torment.
They will probably come after me for saying this, however, here in Terre Haute, IN we are in desperate need of some type of help with how CORRUPT our officers and goverment officials are. They are so horrible to ALL of us. I was pulled over for absolutely nothing, I was door dashing and he was following me and once I spoke to him, he came up with many excuses such as I was supposedly going 50 in a 30 which was untrue and when I defended that he said well why are you driving around and turning around when you saw me, I showed him my phone and said sir, I am door dashing, and he said okay, makes sense and ran all my stuff and then never had a reason to ticket me or arrest me, which proves to me its bull because had i REALLY been speeding I would have been ticketed or jailed for that speed, but I assume since he knows door dash tracks me and my other tracking app as well he coudlnt prove it. They always judge people on their looks as well and rough up people based on their looks. We are all afraid of these officers and we need help.
The fact that you commented this with your name showing is commendable👍🏾
Ask for help from auditors. Enough auditors show up and I believe things will change. Always record police interactions, ALWAYS
Here in fort wayne as well. We the people need to organize. Make calls. Emails. Dont give up.
Ch and ty audits. Look them up. They go all around Indiana.
Your only hope is to campaign against those in office - red or blue, they are all crooked
The power to take a man away from his family for not using a sidewalk is truly an abuse of power. Where is the judge and jury to find this officer guilty of knowing what he is doing is against EVERYTHING he claims to stand for. If something is not done about the amount of power officers have been given to change the course of someone's life for the hell of it whether they've actually done something wrong or not, the harm to OUR communities will only increase. Even after this man explaining this interaction could send him back to prison for years he exhibited no remorse for the abuse of his badge. This officer had nothing but malintent toward this citizen from time they came into contact and definitely needs to be investigated for the countless undeserving men and women I'm sure he's taken away from their families for the economic benefit of himself and his department. What this citizen says about not being able to fight a case effectively while incarcerated is mostly true, if you're not rich and you don't have a Public Defender who actually cares about justice you're 🤬.
They're going to put it off for at least two years because that's statute of limitations on a federal suit
Actually the statute of limitation for a FEDERAL suit is 4 years from discovery of the violation...they are stalling so that he wont be able to do a state AND federal suit
Taya, you are the best! Thank you for what you do, and you do it so well.
I just called their department, and at 5:32 p.m., 3/25/22, and whoever the desk officer was, hung up on me, so, monday, I will call back to file a complaint against the officer for dereliction of duty, for hanging up on me, after I asked to talk to a public information officer. Also, it's insane to think that they have a city ordinance that an Officer can walk up to you and arrest you for not giving him/ her your name. That's a secondary charge, and no city ordinance can be written that overwrites the constitution, unless you live in Indiana.
This story is absolutely disgusting!
If the D.A. sends this through, they shbe fired, too, for tying up the court system and not knowing the law of the land.
Indiana isn't a stop and id state
@N0Sheeple I was being sarcastic.
Great work Patriot sister!
You nailed it on the head Taya when you rightfully called today's policing a business when most believe that it is a service. It is suppose to be a service paid for by the tax payer but sadly this is not the case any more. We the people still fund it but get little in the way of actual service.
It was never really a service. Police exist to protect property, not to protect people. They don't even exist to protect or defend the law-they're perfectly willing to violate the law whenever it suits their purposes.
All of this goes all of the way back to their early roots in slave patrols and Pinkerton strikebreakers.
The misconduct issue is never even covered by any news network. But, the fact that those cities don't even keep record of officers responsible for civil settlements is crazy.
I live in NYC where we have nothing but sidewalks and I constantly walk in the street because the roads are smoother and usually not filled with debris or detritus. I’ve never been stopped by cops or even had them look my way twice while doing so. This stop was most definitely a mission to catch a body.
Perception is everything .
When you believe others have authority, you're giving them yours .
The whole purpose of law is to trick you into validaring it .
A friend of mine is retired OPP, he retired in the late 80s.
I've mentioned to him cases similar to this and he said back in the good old days of Policing, they would never arrest somebody for a petty crimes like this, it would be a waste of time, back in those days that's when Policing was dangerous.
Nowadays, it's all about making their way up the ladder so to speak.
In nyc arrest/summons are used in performance reviews. top brass encourages the worst impulses via monthly quotas.
Officer can make like 40 arrest month
& only 10 go to trail with 5 convictions. 20 of those arrest charges was dropped/dismissed due to lack of evidence etc

In my fifty-three years of living, I could not name one instance when I was happy or relieved because a police officer appeared.
Then, last year, I witnessed a vehicle/pedestrian collision where two girls were thrown sixty feet from the force of the impact. I used my flashlight and direct traffic around the victims and responders. Vehicles continued to approach the scene at high speeds so one of the bystanders moved his vehicle into the lane where the victims were to 'block' them from the approaching cars. When the cops arrived, I thought, "Finally, a time when I'm happy the police are here."
One officer immediately began fishing, interrogating the driver, wanting to know why this vehicle was blocking the roadway. 🤷♂
@8:06 According to my youtube law degree, not only do they want the man to pay the $160, they also want him to admit guilt. If he pays the fine, means he is guilty, which means IA wont find anything wrong with the arrest, and the guy would have a harder time suing.
Courts seem to bank on the fact that lawyers are not cheap, so at times it seems "better" just to accept guilt and pay the $160, rather than spend $2k to $3k in attorneys fees just to get case dismissed.
Agreed.
Precisely how they keep marginalized populations impoverished! Make it cheaper to just plead guilty, then you have a conviction on your record that affects your ability to secure a decent job for the rest of your life!
Then you fall back on illegal activities in order to make enough money to survive, & welcome to the revolving door of American slave labor!
The man could offer a plea deal. He pays the fine signing paperwork he is not guilty and all charges dropped. If not he does not pay.
@@kurtwetzel154 My understanding is that even "no contest" counts as guilty without admitting guilt.
Also why pay $160 when at the same time getting DA to agree to drop all charges. If all charges get dropped what would the fine be for?
@@CancunManny Good point on the fine as it's invalid. I was trying to think of a way for him to pay without pleading guilty. The charge should be dropped and nothing paid.

I recorded the whole thing and sent it to the police station in my town. They said I should press charges… UNTIL they found out he was a cop, then they told me there was no case.
With small cities like this, it's all about the money just to extort.
Same with big cities.
There's just more to steal from so it's not as noticeable
Fantastic video! So pleased to have exposure for the people. Thank you for your service! ❤
This cop does not want to be on camera to be transparent also....
They don't need to talk to these cops , they need to charge them with deprivation of rights and put them in jail .
No crime, don’t take a deal he wonted to arrest you he was bored wanted to beat someone up that why he got scared when people showed up.
Exactly! The cop knows that NONE of those charges are going to stick and that his qualified immunity is going to kick in to cover his ass for this false arrest
“I don’t know who you are…” Says the racist cop fabricating a BS crime and giving another petty and weak excuse to arrest rather than assist. A lot of-this is about the character of the recruits to be cops. Protect and serve is ignored and too many seem to have the thug mentality that almost seems to be prerequisite and encouraged as the lack of accountability in many cases shows. We all know that in cases there citizens perform same crimes they would face life changing criminal punishments; cops with qualified immunity frequently get away with paid vacations, ready to find employment in neighbouring counties.
I don't know how long I can take this, but I am going to subscribe because you are saying what people need to understand. This is so triggering for a survivor from police "help". God bless you.
Definitely a case of police misconduct, and I wish Joseph well ; plus, that the officer be properly disciplined.
Nothing is going to happen to this coward clown cop
If an officer doesn’t have body camera footage there shouldn’t be any charges made against the person. There’s literally no proof he committed a crime. It’s just he said she said. He made an arrest for a petty crime impeding on the rights of a fellow citizen and has no evidence that a crime was committed.
Moreover, he willfully violated the department for which he work's policy. If the cop turned the camera off, at the very least he should be charged with destruction of evidence and placed on the Brady list!
Bless her heart! Corrupt cops everywhere!
I would not pay them a penny for that bogus arrest! I don’t care how much it is.
All cops body cams should be on all the time no on and off buttons and no mute buttons...........
I have done the same thing for years walk along streets with no sidewalks so I don't walk in people's yards. It's more suspicious walking in yards at night.
why are you in prison? - for not walking on a non-existing footpath
That is a rosy correctional centre, having officers bring in citizens on such whimsical charges

There are so many laws that i feel like I break laws in my sleep. The police in Europe try not to arrest people. They work with you.
"I don't don't really want to say anything that I live here..."
That sounds as if he is afraid.
That was a unjust arrest
This is beyond disturbing and ridiculous. When will these tyrants be held accountable?! So sad to harrass this man and try to continue to ruin his life. They don't want people to be successful after a previous arrest. Prosecutors should be ashamed as well. All about the money. Very suspicious that his bodycam magically was turned off.

How about giving us the district attorney's contact information.
It's public information you can Google it
Yes folks, this is exactly who the police really are. Never speak to them. This guy should not have spoken a word.
they need get fired for their B.S.
Lawsuit against- unlawfully arrested- wrongly prosecuted- cruel and unusual punishment
How is this even possible?
Because too many people turn a blind eye! Instead of listening to the people, it's easier to dismiss then and just take police excuse!
My brother was one arrested for being in a cab of a driver with an expired license. My brother had just picked up cash from me to pay the rent that day. Suddenly the money, My Money which I gave him, is confiscated for evidence.
My brother was a passenger in a Cab, and ended up getting treated worse because out of the two of us, he's a dark-skinned minority where I tend to pass for white back then.
That's awful
These days, the real crooks are usually the ones in uniform and badges.
God bless you Joseph. Much love brother. Stay strong.
So unjust.
Sincerely hope there is a lawsuit forthcoming.
You was on paper sir. You should check to see if officers get a bonus for being able to send parolees back to prison by violating their parole. Or if they get some kind of recognition for it. Because I have seen a lot times where if a cop knows you are on probation or parole they will do anything they can to get you VIOLATED and sent back to prison
Abuse of authority smh
And then some
Love Taya’s work on this exposing these rights tramplers, and revenue getters.
They are not officers, the are revenue agents for the corporation they work for. They have quotas to fill and that is why they are doing these arrests.
No, this cop was probably bored and was looking for someone to screw with that night...but when a crowd started forming he needed to cover his ass from this illegal stop so instead of him just walking away his ego clicked in and doubled down to the point of making this illegal arrest...knowing that the not walking on the sidewalk will have a snowball's chance in hell of flying so by default the failure to ID wont as well. Side note...I think they probably already dropped the Failure to ID charge because if all they are asking him to do is pay $140 then he isnt be prosecuted for a Class C misdemeanor
Exactly . Revenue generating welfare recipients.

21:25 What kind of business? Gang business and it's systemic AND STARTS AT THE TOP. Not all police are bad but it's the bad ones that get highlighted. As in any other employment, bad employees need to be fired because they are damaging the trust of the public, for whom they have taken an oath to protect.
