- The lasting impact of Richmond Police publicly accusing two men of plotting a mass shooting on July 4, 2022, is undeniable if you ask Rolman Balcarcel and Julio Alvarado-Dubon.
Only sociopaths would do this to complete strangers
All based off anonymous tip
What do you think they’ve been doing to Black Americans for decades?! They have to keep the private prisons at capacity to make money. Until we get rid of private prisons this will always be an issue and they’ll keep filtering through different communities. I noticed that even more white people are starting to experience what we have for generations. No one is free until we all are!
Ironically the clear definition of what the police did is domestic terrorism themselves . Back the blue line swine until you're the next in line.
@user-gs5fc4oy8h I hereby make an "anonymous tip" that these cops have a kidnapping victim in their basement.
Yeah the police really wanted to bust a terrorist plot in light of recent shootings and police misconduct around the nation to make themselves look good. It's kinda like that hemp farmer in South Carolina that police raided despite knowing he had a valid permit. Police love to look good at any cost.
More *ACORN GESTAPO* cops standing on the wrong side of the prison bars.
Somebody can claim someone gonna do something with no proof,and they gonna get arrested?
Sorta like red flag laws.
Red flag laws
"We got a call" is the usual cop line.
I wonder how we can use this against the police... Can I have these cops arrested simply by making an anonymous tip about them???
@@ianbattles7290they will do their jobs and wont arrest their coworker without an investigation
Frame them and claim them. Americas police policy
Fascist Police State. We have turned into the USSR I was taught to fear as a child.
Yeah its zionism. You can call it fasicsm or communism but its all just judaism.
When I was a kid, I was told that communist countries were the lands of the midnight knock when police come to take you away and in the US police didn't do that. Now they do.
@@unbreakable7633Same with the Fascists. They're one entity today, CommuFascists is what they are.
@@barrybb5409Judaism??? Sound much like a Fascist are you?

We live in a police state.
America has fallen.
The Police!
It's abnormally them, vs us ... (The United States Taxpayers)

You're just now figuring that out?
When the people fear the government you have tyranny. When the government fears the people you have liberty. When is the last time any of us weren't afraid of our own government?
Not unless you quit on it.
You know how they could've avoided this? Stayed in there own country and no be here illegal
Wow this is terrible police work. I hope that they sue.
Hard to sue when you've been deported.
Ones in jail and will be deported, the other is deported .
Illegals have no grounds for any suit. @@bluethunder5694
Wow I'm positive that no one in law enforcement was held accountable but the taxpayers will pay 😢😢😢
And that right there is the reform people are demanding. When there are no consequences for breaking the law there is no incentive for them not to break it. Justice Sotomayor just said something similar regarding another immunity claim. All of us live every day with the backdrop of consequences. This is what establishes us as a law and order society. Now give virtually unlimited power to people with no consequence. And this is the inevitable outcome.
sounds more like someone didn't like the guy and LIED to police in order to get him arrested and being the low-intelligent people they usually are, the police decided to fabricate charges in order to get him in jail, regardless of whether or not he was going to eventually actually STAY in jail, since they knew they didn't have any actual evidence.... like police like to say, 'you may beat the charge, but you'll still take the ride'.. meaning they can punish you if they don't like you, EVEN IF they already know that the charges will never stick... they can arrest you, strip search you, cavity search you, and cage you with other violent criminals, which increases the likelihood that you'll be assulted while in jail, AND it'll be on your record for any potential background checks... so they get to punish you and MOST times, NOTHING is done back to the police that ILLEGALLY do this to citizens. they get promoted instead and teach other cops that this is acceptable behavior and thus the cycle is continued... and people wonder why so many now hate cops....
These cops are sociopaths who don't care about the truth or reality.
They were not citizens dumbass. Try illegals. There, fixed it for ya.
And no police officers were charged so they can go to the next town and do it again.
Yeah, why is accountability so important for the average citizen if it doesn't seem to matter for the cops???
Horrible Police work! How disgusting!
"We don't want cases coming through [the courts] that are void of this [reasonable doubt]...", WOW really? Not only does our crappy judicial system allow this multiple times DAILY, our crappy judicial system allows innocent people to be convicted daily. I blame stoopid, lazy, and vindictive government actors for this problem.
Thank for this reporting. Not enough news agencies are covering police misconduct and incompetence. It is an epidemic in the US.
Glad innocent are free
Would you like to explain exactly who and what many of these so called tipsters and informants are. Many are criminals trying to gain favor with police.
So an anonymous person calls in a tip, the police investigate and find no evidence of a crime or that the tip even had any credibility. So then they decided the next step was to make arrests, have multiple press conferences and claim they thwarted a terrorist plot based on the evidence they didn't find. With only consequence for the lies being the chief resigning, and I expect he just moved to a different town to be chief or retired with his full pension. It's difficult to decide if it's down to malicious intent or incompetence but ego is definitely a big factor.
“Unfortunately” means they are targeting him
The police chief should have been charged. Violating someone's rights by naming them in terrorist related indictments should get that person a 5 year rap. He should have been hounded by the MS News for answers as to "why" and "how". Their answers should be sent around the world just like the accusations! He should never be allowed to work in the Public Safety sector ever again.
Heck... talking about "OVER PLAYED" There are charges made by certain government agencies ALL the time and ruining people's lives... Lawyers cost a lot of money and the average person can't afford to fight for their rights. It is very , very sad what is going on in the judicial system especially when it comes to the juvenile part and children being stolen from their father to get SOLD !!!
I concur the exception that we can make this far more specific as nearly all these cases start at local law enforcement and fall apart at federal levels. Nearly all.
@@loganskiwyse7823the really sad part is they get promoted and free vacations for bogus charges.
We are just quota numbers to them!
Sounds like state sanctioned human trafficking to me.
😂😂😂😂 all lies
@@billyyank5807you and your buddies are always in a war with regular,and senior American citizens but cowards with real men that can protect themselves against your ideology!
By this logic, I should be able to have these cops arrested by making a single "anonymous tip" against them.
Tipsters lied to the police! That hardly ever happens. 🙄 Id like to say that one day the police might realize this but we all know that they dont want to.
Police likely ARE the tipsters.
IF the “tipster” ever existed, at all.
Yet the Police will not be held accountable.
So if people have rights per the Constitution as soon as they enter this country, why wouldn't they have a right to own a fire arm? That's the second amendment.
They do. Unfortunately we are living in a time of self entitled xenophobia where people think they own exclusive sovereignty of the country. Lest they forget that our country was founded by immigrants. The founding fathers wrote the constitution with the words, "All men are created equal. And are endowed with certain inalienable rights by the creator." How many were actually citizens at the time of that writing?
@@ygrittesnow1701The Founding Fathers wrote many things. Like “Observations On The Increase of Mankind” written by Benjamin Franklin. In the document points 23 through 24 are poignant about his thinking. Like it or not the Founders only wanted certain folks who were compatible with their values. Compatibility and values that have long since been lost.
What happened to questioning the tipster about the statement. Where and when did you hear this statement? Do you have any personal grudges against this person?
How does the tipster have any right to privacy The person negated it when they decided to contact please so I are they censoring it
The fact that the cops haven't displayed any guilt/remorse for their error *proves that this was done maliciously.* If this was just an honest mistake, they would own it & apologize.
The police cared more about posting their work than actually investing!!
Keep saying it's just a few bad police. Every day this is happening and it keeps ramping up. Why? Does anybody have an answer? Why do this? Answers please.
Increased reporting because it's easier to distribute news?
But we want our names in the news! We found pictures of guns in a sports magazine in his bedroom.
We need to start treating the pursuance of dubious charges like the criminal offense it is. Using the force of law to assault and incarcerate a person without sufficient evidence of criminal conduct is an assault on society.
The shameful reality is that you can be subjected to violence and have your life turned upside down well before you get your “day” in court. Punishment is preemptive, extrajudicial and automatic, not dependent on successful conviction.
4:37 it couldn't meet a mattress level for probable cause since it was an anonymous tipster once again a tipster that's anonymous is not a reliable source it can't be anonymous for reliable tip
How can we be certain that the zealot, I mean "tipster," didn't also accuse him of loading bullets into a pellet gun?
Is there a LAW in the US that you need citizenship for firearm possession/ownership/purchase?
The second amendment and most of the constitution applies to any adult IN the US, and in many cases, even non-adults, not just citizens.
total set up, the police that did this should be in jail.
The chief resigned so he can go get another job and mess up somebody else's life just like he messed up their lives, The chief and every officer involved in that should be held accountable for the slander defamation of character false arrest and taking a rumor as legitimate evidence the person who made the report initially needs to be going jail for swatting.
Never talk to the cops. For any reason.
The law enforcement officers who made these false statements need to be held accountable instead of resigning
Okay, how'd they get the arms and what was the purpose in ownership while expressly proscribed.
We got a call about you, so we will arrest you on whatever charges we can make stick. Nothing has changed much.
😡🤬😡🤬Outrageous. Unacceptable.
I live in southern Texas, let be the one to assure everybody. Nobody alive "used to work for the Mexican drug cartel." This should have been a clue for the police.
LoL, they just made it up. The whole thing was fiction. 😂
Because they are doing the color of law not the 2a or the constitution.
Maybe the only person who should have been charged by their “ tipster”. This entire affair sounds like a beat up and the cops were looking for a crime to fit them up with, this should never had seen a courtroom and all involved in this sordid affair should be fully investigated for the part they played. Severely restrict immunity to police, DA’s and judicial staff and see how quickly nonsensical cases disappear, once people know they are accountable for their actions they tend to do their job within the confines of the law.
WE JUST KEEP SEEING OVER AND OVER AND OVER THE CRIMES OF THE MOST VIOLENT CRIMINAL STREET GANG IN OUR COUNTRY TODAY AND IT'S THE ONES WITH THE BADGES!! ##RealizeTheTruth 😢
This is why you NEVER show anyone outside your family what protection you have. Never tell them what protection you have.
If anyone sold a firearm to the one who is believed to have been deported, THEY should go to jail. Illegals are breaking the law and shouldn't be able to own firearms. They get caught, that's their problem.
Seriously, the tipster needs to be charged.
Lawsuits
I guess those "God given rights" only apply if God made sure you were born in this country? Rights are rights.
Well, they managed to completely screw up those people's lives.
When he said let me be clear I knew he was full of crap
Shows what these red flag laws and surveillance without a warrant is going to take this country where just the accusation is proof of guilt
What "great investigation" was done? Once again, Virginia, Peoples Republic of, does whatever the hell it wants regardless of the laws. Hopefully, some mega lawsuits will follow.

But, but, po-lice are our heros... Right.
As someone who lived in Richmond the cops are very racist
Probably a ficticious person who reported this!!
Blue Line Gang thugs.
Liked and link shared with John Bryan, aka The Civil Rights Lawyer.
Because you are guilty until proven innocent
well, as I was born and raised in VA, go figure a democrat ran city like Richmond would fubar something.
Classic coverup based upon false accusations, ovet charging, and abuse of authority by intimidation.
There are a lot of people saying nasty things about cops as a result of this. I think the other side is that they received a complaint of a possible shooting, responded to that complaint, gathered evidence, presented a warrant affidavit to a judge, and made an arrest after a judge decided that probable cause existed and actually issued a warrant. Warrants are based on probable cause which is considerably less evidence than that needed to convict a defendant in court. Prosecutors decided that they could not prove beyond a reasonable doubt that this defendant intended to commit a mass shooting so they did not charge him with this. Instead, he was convicted of a firearms violation and was sentenced to prison as a result. People would have been outraged had the police not taken an allegation of a mass shooting seriously.
Based purely on this video, it sounds like the chief of police significantly and publicly overstated the case against this suspect. People in these kinds of positions are politicians. They have a tendency to overstate their accomplishments and understate their mistakes. This appears to have cost him his job.
With the sole exception of the chief’s statements, the handling of this incident arguably demonstrates the system working as intended. Law enforcement investigated, obtained an arrest warrant, and a suspect was convicted of a crime he did commit but not convicted of a crime for which insufficient evidence existed.
Paid liars gonna lie
Richmond police train so hard to be Hero’s they look like a bunch of Barney 5 so stupid
Everyone crying in the comments😂 it's actually pretty funny.
If you hate living in the U.S. so much,you can leave. Go live elsewhere, see how it goes. Good luck! 😂
Racial Profiling much!!!!
how did an illegal pass a background check to own a gun?
They don't need to pass a background check any more. Your president made it legal for them to.
Laws are only for white Americans.
How are they allowed to get jobs how are they allowed to get driver's licenses... Democrats that's how
He didn't actually possess them, apparently. Guns are such a ubiquitous part of our culture, you can't make it a crime just to be near someone else's legally owned firearms... I mean they could, and you guys would support it wholeheartedly, but they haven't yet.
People aren’t illegal. Actions are.
Let us know if you earn that GED.
Always film the police they lie
So they came here illegally and had guns but the daughter got fired from her job in Ven , lol ok
2:36 yea,he shouldn't have had firearms. Non citizens aren't allowed to purchase firearms or possess firearms legally.
That's not true at all
Amazing the guy was deported. Almost unheard of these days. Must've been a CYA move to get some kind of action from all the smoke with no fire.
Non citizens can own firearms
Yes if they have Green Cards. Im a retired county law enforcement. West Michigan. Many permanent residents have guns legally here. Im not worried one bit if they are legally bought,registered. ,
@@alphaomega5909sorry bud but the constitution only applies to legal US citizens. While you may allow them to carry they DO NOT HAVE THE RIGHT.
@@dozersdady How many people were actual citizens of this country when the 2nd amendment was written? The constitution is not a permission slip just for US citizens. It is a statement of principles. All men are created equal and are endowed with inalienable rights by the creator. See how that statement alone encompasses all of us.
@@dozersdadyGoogle it and find out for yourself. You're farting in the wind.
@@alphaomega5909 seems like they did not want to bring up the fact that they were illegal Criminal aliens
FAFO! Wouldn't happen if they had stayed in their country instead of breaking into ours...
Gun charges should not have been dropped.

How did their big fat informant get any information whatsoever.

Hey @@JoshyJosh, give it up bro because people like this have other agendas that literally have nothing to do with logic and reason! 🙄🤣🤪
Showing bias against people in the U.S. that don’t speak English?
I bet your ancestors didn't speak it either when they came here.
If the border was not wide open, this never would have accrued.
Lol? First of all, if the border is an issue, why have Republicans consistently blocked all legislation meant to fix it? Second, you clearly don't care about the border since you don't even understand the problem with it. You're a complete joke of a person. Do at least a tiny bit of research before you make yourself look like more of a freak.
It doesn’t matter what is or isn’t found the cops will always get away with it, it’s a double standard for the government
DEI run-a-muck. 😂😂
Salacious accusations make headlines, exoneration is suppressed. Unless the accused is a Democrat politician or political donor, then the rules are reversed.
Lol? Surely you have an example for this wild claim, right?
Bottom line - we do NOT need non-Americans possessing guns in America!
Being a Citizen on the US should be a prerequisite to firearms ownership / possession.
Well, the most dangerous and irresponsible gun owners are law enforcement agencies of all type.
No it should not, that's disgusting. You think immigrants shouldn't be allowed to defend themselves?

A good police force is hyper suscpicious in my experience ......i like it ....but its a two edged sword ......the mistakes need to be rectified immediately by GOOD SUPERVISION 👍.... and yes ive been falsely arrested 😮
Suspicion, being an opinion without evidence, is lower than a mere opinion.
Hyper suspicious is good law enforcement in a country like China or Russia. But it is flat out useless in a police force for a country based on individual rights and freedoms.
@@alexritchie4586 Especially when suspicion can see you arrested with ramifications of possibly losing your job, house/apartment, and/or vehicle and then cost you hundreds, if not thousands, of dollars in legal fees only to finally find out it was never true. Now it is damage done and now you have nothing and if qualified immunity stays in place you can't even sue. Got to love suspicion...
That's all fine if you also believe in holding the police accountable for their actions.
Apparently, my reply was removed. So, I will repeat the obvious.
Hyper-suspicious is how "law enforcement" works in countries like China or Russia or North Korea.
It is not acceptable for "police" in a free society to be hyper suspicious. That's why we have so many "constitutional audits" going on, legal activity being treated as criminal.
Well at least we got rid of one illegal immigrant.
Better to be safe than sorry.. these guys were just sloppy.
