You emasculated that cop 😂 Good job. He was speaking so softly, and without any confidence. He knew he ran into a lawyer who wouldn't let his normal corrupt and or lazy nonsense slide unchallenged.
This is a example of another smart-ass cop who just couldn't fathom that everything he says is not believed, you can hear it in his voice and you can see it i his demeanor. He needs to somehow be taken down a peg or two and i hope this defendant sued him PERSONALLY.. 01 18 17
@harrylongbaugh1 Yup guilty or not witness should even consult a lawyer but you should also take into consideration the crime some crimes make these steps unnecessary.
Why is it these cops tend to look and sound like a little boys getting talked to by an adult when in court. Especially when they know their actions were questionable.
He’s not. He’s trying to get to the point because he know where the line of questioning is going already and he’s wanting to get to the point. His job.
Ken Phillips yeah the judge is trying to knock the training wheels off this thing and the cop is just struggling lol and to add to it the defense attorney thinks he’s auditioning for law & order
rad4579 God damn judge keeps taking the wind out from the defendants lawyer’s questions. The corrupt cop should be old enough to explain his own bull shit.
He is an ADA, I bet the DA has an office policy to not drop certain charges or something and the ADA has to follow it or get a talking to. Seems totally uninterested, I am surprised he didn’t bring other stuff to work on during the trial
@@Tugyankreel This is the same reason the prosecutor and judge seems to be in Cahoots at times. For example I had a traffic ticket which was in Detroit, MI. Since it was a simple traffic ticket I decided to represent myself. What I notice was that the prosecutor was giving the defendants that were present before me legal advice by telling majority of them to plead not guilty to be set up for another court date in which they'll eventually end up guilty or paying off fines anyway. Now I'm not a brightest light bulb when entering a court house, but I knew that I was guilty of speeding so I didn't take the prosecutor advice and ended up pleading guilty, my reason behind that was to get this done and over with as quick as possible so I could get my license back. But when I pleaded guilty both judge and prosecutor seemed to have some type of animosity towards me.
You are good, counselor Rockind! I'm glad the legal system has people like you grinding away at ground-zero. Your work deserves to be elevated to a larger stage so we Americans can appreciate how you work to make the "authorities" play within the rules. And by the way, I personally believe your client did have an open bottle container as charged by the State Trooper.
Cop said he gave 15,000 traffic tickets, he also said he had been a cop for 15 years, That means on the average he issued 1000 traffic tickets per year..Thats 3 tickets every day roughly for 7 days a week, day after day, month after month, year after year. I don't know but that's a little hard to believe. No time off for vacation or holidays? Dedicated to his job?
He could issue more than one at a stop and many more than 3 over the course of his shift which for most officers is 10-12 hours. He could have wrote that many which shows he is not a police officer but that he is a revenue agent for the state.
You're showing your lifelong stupidity, moron. You can write five or six on one stop or numerous on one accident scene. He's a state trooper, he's definitely issuing more than three a day. Moron.
Can’t believe this judge gets up in the middle of an explosive interrogation moment to take a pee! The judge ruined the momentum that was building toward no reason to stop that driver! This judge has the worst style and temperament ever!
Why is the judge interjecting in the case Cross examining the witness, and the defense council? This is highly suspect as to weather or not this judge belongs on the bench!
I agree Judge keep your mouth shut!! God gave you two ears for a reason! Let the attorney do his job ! Do you really need the attention! Or Mabel a hug?
So if I get a license at my age it would be suspicious? I've never had a license due to the fact that I can't afford a car so if I was able to finally afford a car and got my licences it would be suspicious to police amazing.
Wait.......this cop arrested a man for obtaining a driver license later in life than others and for admitting to having received tickets? Disgusting. Cops are pathetic.
dam this defense is on point. the judge is explaining because he knows the law and the trooper just broke the law so the judge wants to be clear that you found something where there was nothing to be found so you presumed the defendant guilty of a crime with no crime being present.
I've watched this more than once - the whole set of these reinforce my belief that officers are selected from the lesser of us. always remember and never forget that the police fought in court to NOT hire the best and brightest applicants. they won. and it is obvious. peace out. Jordan vs New London No. 99-9188
Carl Malone let the individual be judged for the individuals actions. Judge not a whole state! That's the kind of shallow thinking that's led to the polarized world we live in today. "One cop thinks it therefore every cop within the geographical irregularly shaped state of Michigan must think the same way." You're jumping to a conclusion that this state trooper even did this because the defendant was black. Maybe he just gets a thrill from asserting his authority and overstepped his bounds this time.
And the judge interrupted when the arrogance of the cop came up with the fouled mouthed cussing at the defendant question was made. The cop didn't have to incriminate himself in court and affirm that he was vulgar to the driver out of bully attitude.
I submit, the cross examination showed the trooper is a poor excuse for a cop who is more than willing to simply "make up" an excuse too effect an arrest. He should be made to pay attorney's fee's AND court cost
It is obviously a judge trial. In civil cases, I saves the person money to opt for a judge trial In criminal cases, the defendant can ask for a judge trial instead of a jury trial. Examples why u would want a judge trial: u think u can't get objective jurors, extreme example you beat the hell out if a woman and you don't think having female jurors will bode well for you but a singular judge will... Often in a judge trial, the judge interrupts to ask questions to understand. Go back and listen to under these pretenses: sometimes the attorney has to walk the judge to the conclusion they are trying to make...and the judge can just cut right through and ask just like he did here several times. It's as if the judge is saying, "This is what you are trying to ask, and Tooper you are trying to say...."
Shaun Parker Open Intoxicants and a Fraudulent License is a Criminal matter cause it's illegal too have open alcohol in your vehicle and Fraudulent license speaks for itself as that's also a Criminal matter and not a civil matter.
Show me a defense atty who wins a bench trial (sans exclusion) and I’ll show you some respekt. Winning a prelim has more to do with the state’s incompetence than the defense’s skills.
Douglas W. Bonner, Jr. Attorney at Law. Defense attorney who won most of his cases based on fact, not games, not deceit. Probably 50% of his cases never made it past the prelim hearing because he could disprove the prosecutions evidence so easily with facts. I worked for him for over 30 years!
Katherine McMahon that means the State sucked. Sorry but the standard is only P.C. and most of the time the defendant gets bound over for trial. Think about it, the defense hardly gets to even call witnesses. Everything is stacked in the states favor. Shoot I remember back in my days as an intern we would get most of the prelims the ADA didn’t want
*10:30* The judge hears the trooper say that there were no tickets on record and doesn't toss out the case right there for lack of probable cause? Of course, I'm only half-way thru part 2, but holy hell, it baffles the mind that obvious bullshit isn't bein called bullshit
I got my driving licence at 34... Nice to know that is so suspicious to the police if I ever get stopped... Don't see what business of theirs it is even if I were to wait til I was aged 60 though!
The problem is practically anyone can become a cop with less than six months of training. That allows too many unqualified people to carry guns and act like god.
Is it illegal to have a provisional licence at any particular age? Because if not, it was an illegal arrest. The cop should be on the gallows, not on a witness stand.
So I hold law enforcement in super high regard they’ve saved my ass a few times. But I think it’s funny, every time I see a cop on the stand they always look super put upon, annoyed, and like almost offended that someone would question what they did or how they did it. It’s part of the job description if you wanna enforce the law.
Hate to inform the Cop. But not every state reports DL to other states. You can get one in Utah or Idaho and they don't give shit if you never had one or if it's been suspended. They issue you one after taking the test and passing.. Thank You
Sean Stewart People are amazed because in our system lawyers want you to plead out and do not like trials. This guy is doing his job however to most people who have been through the process he looks like a superstar.
The state trooper has the same polite condescension as the officers who testified in the Steven Avery case from Netflix's "Making A Murderer". One can't help but wonder if it's a tactic that cops are trained for when testifying in a case...
No, I think cops get accustomed to judges taking their lies at face value and slam dunking the defendant. They can't help but get arrogant about court.
BTW Steven Avery was a total shitbag and was caught again in criminal activity. He doused a cat with gas and set it on fire. Among other lowlife doings.
This guy is the man used to him a few times back in the day Before he blew up he did a great job for me work miracles really goes to bat for his clients I know him a lot Thanks Neal
Did anybody catch that the trooper said he’s had roughly 15,000 traffic stops in his 15 years. Is it normal for a cop to make 1000 stops a year?. He’s basically saying he stopped 3 to 4 people a day for the past 15 years. Talk about generating revenue. Can anybody comment on this if it’s normal or not ?
The judge is acting as the prosecutor! What happened to answering the questions with a yes or no? Judge went to cry in his coffee : no fine here boys! He abandoned his ship! Case dismissed
I hope this officer was fired and prosecuted for fabrication of evidence, falsifying police reports, and perjury! This is why Americans don’t trust the police or the judicial system. What if... just what if, this defendant did not have the $ to hire this great attorney and was provided a public defender? He would have been pressured into a guilty plea deal of some sorts and the facts of the case would have never been fleshed out! These officers get away with this behavior more times than not, and it’s disgusting and a disgrace to our system!
I know a bunch of 29-35 year old ppl without licences, its called a city bro, rail, busses, taxi's, and if they ever do get a license I hope they dont get harrassed for trying to get it... that's bullshit.
Is it common in Michigan for judges to intervene with commentary? There's another attorney I watch in Kentucky whose judges reserve themselves to speaking only when they are objections or it's procedurally relevant.
So this officer arrested somebody for having a licence and for having no criminal background was suspicious are you kidding me, Tell me the truth it was because he was black.
It's a perogative of his office. The judge is the one who's in charge of the order of the courtroom. He has the explicit right to do so where no one else does. The robe is conferred with a level of authority and respect that no one else in the courtroom has and everyone else must recognize. There is also great trust given to judges that they will not abused this right. This judge only interrupts to cut to the quick of an issue.
The judge in this case (instead of a jury) is the one who will make a ruling based on the evidence presented to him. In order to make a legit ruling, he needs to clearly understand the evidence presented to him - so at times he asks questions to clear up any confusion he may have. Perfectly normal in a bench trial. The judge is in control of the courtroom. I'm surprised the judge allowed this defense attorney to talk over him in part 1 and 2 of this cross examination. Most judges would've told the defense attorney "I'm speaking" or "don't interrupt me", but this one seems kinda chill. Probably already knows how he will rule in this case, and just ready to get this hearing over.
The inconsistency of whether he had previous tickets are not, and the cop fucking admitting that it did not show up in the database gave him 'suspicion' is one more reason to keep your mouth shut when pulled over or a police starts questioning you.
How is it suspicious that a person gets his/her first license later than usual? My brother is 37 and never had a license, if he gets a drivers license will he be treated like the defendant ?
Judge is working for the state here and it is as if it is common place. The judge is trying to coach the officer on cause for the suspicion for him to reach cause to search this man's car or whatever the cop did it this case. If there is no cause to search and the driver does not give consent , then if the cop searches anyway , whatever he fines is not , or can not be , use against him in court. Fruit of the poisonous tree.
As far as his record goes, just how is the defendant to know what is actually on there? It's not like he has open access to it. Here in Florida, you have to go to the Sherriff's Office and pay about $20 for them to print it up for you. I've had to do that trying to apply for a job. That's not something an average Joe is going to do.
People get very nervous when a cop pulls them over. The cop had no reason to arrest this guy. He had a legal license. What a waste of time and resources over nothing.
I didn't get mine at 17? Some parents don't want their kids getting a licence at 16 because it drives up their auto insurance whether they drive or not?
Thank The Lord that THIS Officer Never stopped me... He would’ve had me in Cuffs and dead based on his Logic....I went from MI to FL to MI to FL and BOTH STATES lost all my info at one point and neither would give me a License... this Trooper believes his Computer is perfect and with minimal info that was flawed along with his own “logic” he came up with Imma arrest this guy!
@9:50 not everyone has a car or can get their license at a young age, so the fact a license was recently issued to a older person should not be cause for suspension, pretty sure this cop profiled this guy, and when there was nothing illegal or wrong the cop felt as if he needed to arrest this person on the ground they had a recently issued license at a older age, how the fuck .....
So according to this trooper it’s suspicious, a major red flag, that a person didn’t get his license when he was young. I didn’t get mine until I was 24.
You emasculated that cop 😂
Good job. He was speaking so softly, and without any confidence.
He knew he ran into a lawyer who wouldn't let his normal corrupt and or lazy nonsense slide unchallenged.
Authoritarian taken to task. Nice to see justice is still a thing.
This is a example of another smart-ass cop who just couldn't fathom that everything he says is not believed, you can hear it in his voice and you can see it i his demeanor. He needs to somehow be taken down a peg or two and i hope this defendant sued him PERSONALLY.. 01 18 17
So he arrested him for having a new license and having no tickets in the system? Wtf? Another good example of not to answer questions.
Perfect example of why you shouldn't answer any an officer's questions.
Why do so many people screw that simple step up?
He said he didn’t ask any questions... lol
Fear and not knowing their rights @@JohnSmith-ol2qu
@harrylongbaugh1 Yup guilty or not witness should even consult a lawyer but you should also take into consideration the crime some crimes make these steps unnecessary.
Why is it these cops tend to look and sound like a little boys getting talked to by an adult when in court. Especially when they know their actions were questionable.
They tend to adopt the demeanor of a lying child who got caught with his hand in the cookie jar.
I am glad other people are paying attention to this as well. It fascinates me how often cops revert to this kind of behavior pattern.
Because that's what happens when a little boy gets caught lying... Lol
Stop testifying for the officer, judge!
is that officer fat? too many donuts
He’s not. He’s trying to get to the point because he know where the line of questioning is going already and he’s wanting to get to the point. His job.
Judge is trying to help the cop, corrupt judge grrrrrr
Ken Phillips yeah the judge is trying to knock the training wheels off this thing and the cop is just struggling lol and to add to it the defense attorney thinks he’s auditioning for law & order
rad4579
God damn judge keeps taking the wind out from the defendants lawyer’s questions. The corrupt cop should be old enough to explain his own bull shit.
The prosecutor is probably regretting his decision to bring all the charges forward!!! Lol 😂 probably wishing he had dropped some of the charges !!
He never objected. Not one time.
He is an ADA, I bet the DA has an office policy to not drop certain charges or something and the ADA has to follow it or get a talking to. Seems totally uninterested, I am surprised he didn’t bring other stuff to work on during the trial
Steven Non ya no because they get paid based on the duration and amount of charges. This equals county funding.
@@Tugyankreel This is the same reason the prosecutor and judge seems to be in Cahoots at times. For example I had a traffic ticket which was in Detroit, MI. Since it was a simple traffic ticket I decided to represent myself.

But when I pleaded guilty both judge and prosecutor seemed to have some type of animosity towards me.
Notice the complete change in the officer's demeanor when he goes from addressing the lawyer to addressing the judge at 9 minutes and 15 seconds.
Regarding the tickets, this is one of the reason why you NEVER anwser cop's questions. Anything response you give can and WILL be used AGAINST you.
You are good, counselor Rockind! I'm glad the legal system has people like you grinding away at ground-zero. Your work deserves to be elevated to a larger stage so we Americans can appreciate how you work to make the "authorities" play within the rules.

He could issue more than one at a stop and many more than 3 over the course of his shift which for most officers is 10-12 hours. He could have wrote that many which shows he is not a police officer but that he is a revenue agent for the state.
He said traffic stops, not tickets. Any cop who doesn't average at least three stops/contacts per shift is not really doing the job.
He's highway patrol. He probably issues more then a beat cop.
You're showing your lifelong stupidity, moron. You can write five or six on one stop or numerous on one accident scene. He's a state trooper, he's definitely issuing more than three a day. Moron.
He didn't say he gave 15,000 tickets, he said he made 15,000 traffic stops, but I agree that the numbers sound fishy.
15,000 traffic stops in his 15 year career, 20 tickets a week, one of Michigans finest extortionists!
Waste of taxpayer dollars and money from that man paying a attorney's fees....absolutely ridiculous what these damm police do in fact it's sickening!
I smell a civil suit coming followed by a new home paid for by the department.
This is porn for those of us who hate the popo.

Can’t believe this judge gets up in the middle of an explosive interrogation moment to take a pee! The judge ruined the momentum that was building toward no reason to stop that driver! This judge has the worst style and temperament ever!
So true
No ... this is "confirmation" for those who hate police lies.
This lawyer sounds like Howard Stern
I thought Alan Alda. Shows my age, I guess!
you must not listen to howard very much
I thought he sounded like a mix between Howard Stern and Alan Alda... Ha ha
Bababooey to you all
If you close your eyes, kinda..
Why is the judge interjecting in the case Cross examining the witness, and the defense council? This is highly suspect as to weather or not this judge belongs on the bench!
The fact he didn't dismiss the second the officer admitted to tampering with evidence, makes the judge a criminal. Gallows for him too.
I agree Judge keep your mouth shut!! God gave you two ears for a reason! Let the attorney do his job ! Do you really need the attention! Or Mabel a hug?
So if I get a license at my age it would be suspicious? I've never had a license due to the fact that I can't afford a car so if I was able to finally afford a car and got my licences it would be suspicious to police amazing.
Apparently you can be arrested for that. What bullshit
Wait.......this cop arrested a man for obtaining a driver license later in life than others and for admitting to having received tickets?

Jordan vs New London No. 99-9188
Maybe a silly question on my part, but if no infraction occured, wouldn’t the officer want to see justice served?
I have a real problem with police having access to so mich information about a persons life
I agree
The Prosecutor hasn't had to do much of anything. The Judge doing it all for him.
Simply put, it wasn't the prosecutor's turn to ask questions - it was the defense attorney's turn.
So him not having a record was suspicious..... You can tell the cop is just fuming. You can tell he’s not use to being challenged. I love it.
Driving while black seems to be a crime in that liepiglicon state.

The judge needed to STFU and let the defense attorney do his job.
I love how the judge interjects whenever he feels the need to try and steal the trooper into responding a certain way. Talk about impartial.
And the judge interrupted when the arrogance of the cop came up with the fouled mouthed cussing at the defendant question was made. The cop didn't have to incriminate himself in court and affirm that he was vulgar to the driver out of bully attitude.
Just another criminal cop
I submit, the cross examination showed the trooper is a poor excuse for a cop who is more than willing to simply "make up" an excuse too effect an arrest. He should be made to pay attorney's fee's AND court cost
Why is the judge explaining the evidence to the Trooper?

I'm not sure either cause i thought that was "leading the witness."

Officers should be trained to say yes or no only. He literally handed the attorney his successful defence.

How is an older person just getting his first licence suspicious? Unusual, yes, but why suspicious?
Show me a defense atty who wins a bench trial (sans exclusion) and I’ll show you some respekt. Winning a prelim has more to do with the state’s incompetence than the defense’s skills.

Lots of help from a Judge who seems to be "getting in way " every time scumbag has a memory lapse!
I think the judge is just trying to dumb it down for the officer whom seems confused when a word contains more then six letters.

No kidding
The problem is practically anyone can become a cop with less than six months of training. That allows too many unqualified people to carry guns and act like god.
Cop arrested a man because he got a licence later in life?
What?
Excellent defense work!
The city attorney at about 11:00 has the look of oh crap I am going to lose this case.
Is it illegal to have a provisional licence at any particular age? Because if not, it was an illegal arrest. The cop should be on the gallows, not on a witness stand.

A pleasure to listen to !
Another cop who has no clue what he is doing lying and assuming things how is he cop my 11 year old daughter could do a better job
Hate to inform the Cop. But not every state reports DL to other states. You can get one in Utah or Idaho and they don't give shit if you never had one or if it's been suspended. They issue you one after taking the test and passing..
Thank You
as far as bar attorneys go..thus guy is sharp.wish he was not a bar attorney..but a constitutional lawyer
I haven’t even seen the end yet, and this trooper is getting owned for him being a trooper for 15 years?!?!
this man is fukn amazing! thank you for these posts!
kelley williams he’s an average solicitor on a basket case
Sean Stewart
People are amazed because in our system lawyers want you to plead out and do not like trials. This guy is doing his job however to most people who have been through the process he looks like a superstar.
Sounds like the cop couldn't find where her had done anything wrong, so that was suspicious.
This judge is out of line trying to help the cop . ask for a break in the middle of the examination. Wtf

yes cops are trained to testilie
this cop shouldn't be in that job , or testifying ...totally amazing ,,, all charges will be dropped !!

The judge in this case (instead of a jury) is the one who will make a ruling based on the evidence presented to him. In order to make a legit ruling, he needs to clearly understand the evidence presented to him - so at times he asks questions to clear up any confusion he may have. Perfectly normal in a bench trial. The judge is in control of the courtroom. I'm surprised the judge allowed this defense attorney to talk over him in part 1 and 2 of this cross examination. Most judges would've told the defense attorney "I'm speaking" or "don't interrupt me", but this one seems kinda chill. Probably already knows how he will rule in this case, and just ready to get this hearing over.
The inconsistency of whether he had previous tickets are not, and the cop fucking admitting that it did not show up in the database gave him 'suspicion' is one more reason to keep your mouth shut when pulled over or a police starts questioning you.
This trooper only gave him the ticket because he was black. Just another bully with a badge, a disgrace to good hard working honest cops.
Judge is stepping on the defense and obviously favoring the the trooper, possibly risking the defenses case.
How is it suspicious that a person gets his/her first license later than usual? My brother is 37 and never had a license, if he gets a drivers license will he be treated like the defendant ?
Judge is working for the state here and it is as if it is common place. The judge is trying to coach the officer on cause for the suspicion for him to reach cause to search this man's car or whatever the cop did it this case. If there is no cause to search and the driver does not give consent , then if the cop searches anyway , whatever he fines is not , or can not be , use against him in court. Fruit of the poisonous tree.
Cop lying in court as usual. They constantly lie and don't give a flying fuck about what happens to the citizens.
As far as his record goes, just how is the defendant to know what is actually on there? It's not like he has open access to it. Here in Florida, you have to go to the Sherriff's Office and pay about $20 for them to print it up for you. I've had to do that trying to apply for a job. That's not something an average Joe is going to do.
People get very nervous when a cop pulls them over. The cop had no reason to arrest this guy. He had a legal license. What a waste of time and resources over nothing.
At 10:56 the judge threw up a sign
I didn't get mine at 17? Some parents don't want their kids getting a licence at 16 because it drives up their auto insurance whether they drive or not?
Why is the judge asking questions and giving statements? I would surely injection to this!
You'd think a LAW enforcement officer would have a decent grasp on the LAW
Why is the judge allowed to ask questions. Jurors can't...
This guy is good - best I have seen
im fairly certain after 7 years speeding tickets don't show up on your record anymore in Michigan.
This seems like Kangaroo Court to me. The judge kept interjecting and even asking questions to the officer.
I didn’t pass my test till I was 40! Ha ha ha. Seriously it’s surely not uncommon
Lol that defence attorney sure is paying by the hour isn't he? Lol
see how this cop's ego won't let him to answer with a simple yes or no/
It seems like cops hate when they are confronted with the truth, and get really arrogant when the case takes a turn to the favor of the defendent
I want this lawyer on retainer.
Red flag? I'm 39 and still dont have mine are you kidding me? I ride the bus the lightrail the train Lyft bike or walk
lol he tore the cop up......................
Thank The Lord that THIS Officer Never stopped me... He would’ve had me in Cuffs and dead based on his Logic....I went from MI to FL to MI to FL and BOTH STATES lost all my info at one point and neither would give me a License... this Trooper believes his Computer is perfect and with minimal info that was flawed along with his own “logic” he came up with Imma arrest this guy!
I didnt get my licence until i was 29...should i be arrested???
@9:50 not everyone has a car or can get their license at a young age, so the fact a license was recently issued to a older person should not be cause for suspension, pretty sure this cop profiled this guy, and when there was nothing illegal or wrong the cop felt as if he needed to arrest this person on the ground they had a recently issued license at a older age, how the fuck .....
hell I didn't get my liscense till I was 21 cus I didn't need it or care
So according to this trooper it’s suspicious, a major red flag, that a person didn’t get his license when he was young. I didn’t get mine until I was 24.
I didn't get mine until I was almost 49. Hadn't the need until I moved to the countryside here in UK. It was a bs reason for sure
Judge's testimony anyone?
