He's not just a little drunk, he is completely hammered. Well done the officer for holding him accountable
Slurring words was a dead giveaway and he could barely stand up, much less walk straight.
"Not much"
@@ableton909 Yeah, makes you wonder what other laws he has just chosen to ignore in the past, the man is supposed to be a leading example for the officers below him. Not all police are bad guys but the few bad apples like this one spoil the whole barrel. The power associated with that little gold badge is a major draw for narcissits and sociopaths.
I'm
Captain
He kept saying he wanted to talk to him but he couldn't even talk😅😂🤣
He said “ I don’t care if you’re a gangbanger or the president of the United States”. That’s a real cop!
Yup, real cops know exactly what to say when the video is rolling...
Agreed
This is why bodycams have become so important. Not only does it hold those in power accountable, it keeps the officer accountable too.
It also protects them.
Imagine if the sergeant pulled this prior to body cams. His captain would have gotten a call the next day about his boy was out of line blah blah then it's all based on hearsay.
100%
How those Paul Pelosi body cams? Oh wait...
Problem is even with the bodycams we have documented evidence of cops turning them off to have secret side conversations during an arrest. We like to think these cameras are the great equalizer but until turning them off becomes an actual criminal charge then it doesn’t change much.
@@NandoswitharandoYes, and that's exactly Why he asked.
It's so wrong for him to put another officer in that position.
"I don't care if you was a gang Banger or the president of the USA I don't give favoritism!"
We need more officers like this who hold other officers accountable give this man a raise!
I agree with you
100
could be doing it for the camera as well, have to take that into consideration before making assumptions
@@thelifeofsantiii maybe so but at least he still held him accountable so it's a start in the right direction
@@thelifeofsantiii You got that right... So many are dumbed down and blind to what is really going on and have been in a deep slumber for that past few years on 1 subject.... This right here is like the Chip & Dale stripers, cause it's all a Stage/Show...
Glad to see the captain wasn't above the law! Kudos to the arresting officer for extreme professionalism.
We’ll see if the judge upholds the law too.
He has been until the body cam was invented!
@@davebryant8050 😂 I was thinking the same thing!
He messed up by not asking the captain if he was willing to do the field sobriety tests.
Hope Captain gets out fr fr
Cops should NOT be able to turn body cameras off.
Politicians should NOT be able to participate in insider trading
@@germanshepherd6638 Agreed. the govts are crooks
@@germanshepherd6638Are you trying to argue or are you adding to the conversation?
@germanshepherd6638 Either you are as drunk as the Capt. or we are watching two different videos
I’ve been in law enforcement for 14 years and not once would I ever shut my camera off or cut a break to any member of law enforcement because they know better. No excuse.
Thank you for your service sir! I’m 21 years old and want to either become a semi truck driver or a cop. Which one do you recommend me? Is it easy to become a police officer or not? I’ve only had 1 speeding ticket but paid it off back in 2019 would that affect me?
@@LuisSanchez-vu6uv please do not become a police officer. I’ve know many and every single one tells me to avoid it like the plague. Especially in 2023
@@LuisSanchez-vu6uvget a regular job for a few years, get some life experiences, grow up some more then see if it's really is for you. @ 21 ur just a kid imo and the stress is pretty high believe me
Some probably do tho
@@billlam7756 I’ve been working with my dad at a landscaping company since I graduated from HS (2019). I’m already tired of working outside in the sun, I find myself enjoying driving and heard truck drivers make good money, but being a cop also catches my attention a lot.
"I took an oath to uphold the law, I don't show favouritism to anyone, regardless..." Wow. The people of that city ought to be proud that you wear a badge on their streets. Honour and integrity. You're a good man and deserve all the respect in the world sir. God bless.
Most excellent short speech stating everything that he and all police are to stand for.
No camera and this never happens. Give me a break.
He's literally doing the bare minimum of the job he's paid for. That's giving praise to the server at maccas for not spitting in your burger.
all cops need to act like this. Also nice PFP i love A7X!
@@noahkrause2835 Same here haha good to see it
The way he thought he could just nonchalantly tell him to turn off his body cam was sickening
Are you really that blind to reality? This is how police have operated for decades!!!
Makes me wonder if he's gotten away with it before.
@@rosebud8646 I'm sure he has
@@rosebud8646 corruption and greed are diseases in so many nations, on so many levels. Unfortunately including our own nation🤕🦅🇺🇸
I mean..even though he wouldnt outright turn off the camera he did get wayyyyy more chances to try to kinda pass the little subjective tests, i doubt your average person would have been given that but he ended up having to cuff him 🤷♂️
This officer showed a lot of integrity. It’s refreshing to see an officer that helps himself to a high standard. He was polite, patient, and professional. This is the type of officer that should be getting promoted.
I can't even begin to imagine how much these people got away with back then when there were no body cams and nothing to prove they were acting like this
Makes me sick thinking of what they got away with
Back then if an officer tried to hold someone higher up accountable, that officer would get bullied, turned against, set up or fired.
Exactly...You know they never arrested officers back then for DUI..
Probably murders too
Worst case you’re probably got into the trouble for arrested the captain
Bravo to that Sergeant! Finally a cop that upholds the law with one of his own.
@@mattgotsskill bingo
@@mattgotsskill exactly would’ve folded like some laundry as soon as he’d see who it was.
His on his own property not the public highway
@@mattgotsskill @XrpAndy @Don Dada Sorry to burst your biased bubbles, but the Lieutenant WAS from his OWN department. 🙄
@@michaelohehir3779 the officer followed him from the public highway into his driveway after observing him swerving and failing to indicate
As a Captain, he should be held to a higher standard, does he think he can't kill someone on the road because of his status? This officer is amazing, Thank you!
Before bodycams I wouldn’t be surprised if cops were letting their fellow officers off the hook in instances like this
Me as a normal citizen knows that.

@@fightsportspace7327 They did... Especially their higher ups...
@@fightsportspace7327 Still happens even with these cameras. The only thing that stopped this officer from turning his camera off was his own integrity and moral expectations. He may return to work the following day shamed by fellow officers for arresting a captain, but there's always gonna be the "good ones" (i just put that in " " cuz every officer is supposed to be a good one) that will respect him. They say that cops are the biggest gang in the U.S. and if you think about it, they all have each other's backs. Lots of scummy stuff goes on that gets hidden to protect one of their own. This is a general statement. My father has been an officer for nearly 30 years now and I look up to him so much. My heart filled with respect as soon as the officer refused to turn his camera off. Always do the right thing.
Good people like this never ask for recognition and they rarely ever get it. Thank you for having the strength to be who you are, other good people know how difficult it is and you have our respect.
Kurt? I thought you were in heaven waiting on me?
He made a DUI arrest. He didn’t cure cancer. Chill out.
Well said ❤
Everytime an officer legit catches another officer like this they should get like a 1-2k bonus or something.
@@rememberingminnesota ehhh cant really disagree but at the same time I still think bonus to break the patterns,
@rememberingminnesota That part.
@rememberingminnesotaso how come politicians are allowed to raise there salaries without doing anything for the taxpayers?
They don't get bonuses. They give each other professional courtesy all the time
It must be a real shock to the system when you find out the law applys to you too.
about time! such people in law enforcement should be held to higher standards
Love the news report on the radio accompanying this arrest and drive to the substation.
Especially for older guys like this that didn't come up with body cams.
@@justthatgirl-ct4jo 👍
Can you imagine if the laws they enact on us also applied to the government??
"I don't care if you're a gangbanger, or the president" amazing cop right there
Seen more videos of Some high headed people of power they would’ve said this is a harassment treatment and call their supervisors so on and so forth and have the cops get in trouble
That Sergeant should be promoted directly to Police Chief...
The sargeant is amazing. Bravo for upholding the oath he took!
As a former cop, the only thing I can say is that I hope that Captain is prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law as well as being sanctioned in accordance with police department policy.
He sets a bad example. He HAS to be. All he had to do was catch an Uber home or call a cab. Asking the officer to turn the cam off is not something the rest of us citizens can request. I respect this officer who pulled him.
@@mommom3172 And you know that wasn't his first time driving that zonked. Poker nights are usually a regular thing.
yep. then give the sergeant his job.
Won’t be bothered. Never happened. Trust me.
That sergeant will probably lose his job over this. If not, certainly any promotions he had coming!
You know you are smashed when you think the camera won't hear you whisper to turn off the camera. It really makes you wonder how many times this man has gotten away with things because of his ranking.
Was thinking the same thing.....makes you wonder how many times a guy his age and his rank got away with this stuff in the "pre-body cam" days???
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 LOL ,this made me laugh as you are 100% right.
If he could drive AT ALL as hammered as he appears to be, he has done this before (and likely will again)!
Lmao
Hundreds
I felt so much anger at this arrogant captain having the gall to "beg" the officer for special treatment. It is corrupt officers like him that put our honorable officers at more risk and stress.
Absolute respect to that officer.
Thank you Sgt. for demonstrating the integrity we trust you to have!
Thank the cameras they and their unions fought against.
He chose not to openly engage in corruption while making an audio and visual recording that he knew would be seen by everyone. Zero integrity required. It just shows how low our expectations for law enforcement have become.
Shouldn’t be able to turn off body cameras. Totally defeats the purpose. If they’re on duty, their camera needs to be on.
We are all slaves to our employers. Mutual mean nothing to these big companies they are leaches that run the world. Government for the big companies not be people it’s so sad that it has come this far. Monopolies are the lobbyist’s. You have to obey everything your employer tells you to do you have to obey everything the government tells you to do or they will both use force. We are being tracked by the government and by the companies to the point where if you step out of line you will find out social credit is right here and now
@@j.rewing635 Thank god somebody else is thinking this. The true test of his integrity would be to see how he would have acted in the absence of the body cam
Dude, this officer better have gotten HUGE kudos. He is the definition of INTEGRITY 👊🏼
He's only talking that way because he's required to wear camera and knows he could lose his tax funded gov't job
Sad thing is he’s probably getting it hard for not protecting their own
@Steve Urkel, how do you know that's "only" why? Believe it or not, there are LEOs out there who do their jobs well.
Kudos to whoever made the cops wear cameras. They're all dirty at some level.
@@steveurkel1487 💯💯💯
shame on him for putting this officer in that position , I hope he's been held accountable .The officer deserves a big well done .
Good for this cop for not showing favoritism. If the Captain is drunk, he is drunk and being arrested like anyone else good for you officer!!!
Big huge props to this police officer!! So nice to hear him
Say it loudly “I will not show favoritism and I will not turn off my body camera”
that one cop did his job the People got lucky for once
but what IF he hadnt arrested his colleague? (you know, like in 99.999999999999% of cases)
what would've happened to either of them? nothing?
legally the SS do have the right NOT to do their job (for w/e reason) right? it's not like they risk any legal consequences
to be clear there's nothing in your laws that says that "NOT arresting a criminal" is a crime right?
🤡 I love how the captain keeps asking for the Sgt to give him special treatment (asking him to turn off his camera, and to let him get away with DUI), then denying that he's asking for special treatment! It's like robbing someone, then saying "I'm not robbing you".
@@blackfalkon4189
That's a gross exaggeration to say that 99.999999999999% of govt employees are allowed to get away with crimes the rest of us would be arrested for! I think we _ALL_ know that it only happens about 99.9999999995% of the time! 🙂
Yeah considering other videos on here showing other cops not following procedures and not being fair and just because of someone's status.
@Rose Dramajunas OK Rose Namajunas 😂😂
I would like to buy this officer lunch. Thank you. I have said this so many times. Being an officer doesn't give you the right to break the law. Being a politician doesn't give you the right to break the law. Being a judge doesn't give you the right to break the law. If they try to use their power to get out of charges, LOCK THEM UP.
@@nhlpens583 Common sense was the largest casualty of 2020.

OK Mr. French.
That was very embarrassing to hear him say turn your camera off. Very cringey
Congratulations Sargeant. We need more just like you
What was his name?
It's an officer like you in which the people of the United States of America are proud of and you set the perfect example to all officers who serve this nation.
lol yeah...try this again without the camera. You may be surprised. One crook doesnt arrest another crool
@@stefanc5048 you're right in the assumption that some officers would only arrest the captain if they had a camera on, but you seem to be implying that all cops are crooks just because they are cops, which is obviously wrong.
Thank you, officer. Fine job, sir. I really appreciated the " lowest gang banger or the president of the United States"...
Integrity. Thank you, officer.
Yeah sure all talk with the lowest gangbanger or president of the United States. These guys are so full of talk and pomp and puff it ain’t funny. And goofballs like you eat it up all day. A sucker is born everyday. What would it have been if there were no camera’s on? Would your wonder boy hero have come through with honor and integrity then?
at the end of the day police are all bad
I will admit hearing that line is exactly the delusional belief we all have but
at the end of the day when police are given orders no matter how immoral they will do them
make no mistake they will drag your loved ones by their hair and drag them into your yard and force them to get a microchip implanted or any other thing the government tells them.
So you are complementing him for not being corrupt. Okayyyyy....lol. I don;t think most cops are corrupt.

I like how he whispers to turn it off as if the mic won’t pick that up. Dude is so drunk he’s not even able to think.
I really give this officer kudos, that couldn’t have been easy situation. He shows no favoritism whatsoever. Wow, that sgt deserves a raise!!!!
I give the body cam kudos.
Honestly I'd rather have a person standing next to their vehicle than sitting in a vehicle with the door closed
the amount of times officers did let people like this get away is sickening.
It's always so disappointing seeing law enforcement officers driving while intoxicated.
People who live in glass houses Pal
it is deplorable pathetic to see such behavior from a person in law enforcement! fine him and send him to jail. he could have injured or killed someone. Snd he wanted it covered up? What despicable pos….my goodness….he felt he was above the law? Absolutely disgusting 🤮
Good old boys mentality they need to retire or get fired!
It seems to be a lot of the good old boys who do the drinking and driving in higher positions.
😒.....💭 No it's not it's good seeing lawless cop's getting busted driving drunk and breaking the law!😏
Love that this officer didn’t show favoritism towards this guy. We need more cops like him
It's sad we're so used to police corruption that people are praising this cop for doing his job!!!
Exactly. Shudder to think what sometimes happens in departments where there are no body cams. I find it crazy that it’s left to each municipality to choose its own policy

Turn the camera…. NOPE.
Held accountable just like everyone else.
A DUI should automatically be escalated to a felony if it's committed by a cop.
Major respect to this sargeant. Major disrepect to this captain looking for special treatment. He will never realize how blessed he was that he did not take or damage lives driving drunk.
"Like, I can't do these tests, I'm too drunk!" Great job on the Sergeant's part getting this intoxicated, I don't care who he is, off the streets. He saved his life and other lives. The Sergeant is a hero!❤
He didn't save any lives. The guy was already parked in his own driveway for the night, LOL.
@Idiots In Cars yeah? Ya think after being humiliated globally, he'll do it again any time soon?
I wouldn’t say “hero” but he took his oath seriously & did what is expected of a Police officer, regardless of Who he’d pulled over 👍🏼

Right? He wanted him to turn off the camera so they could make a deal and act as if it never happened.
And to think we had decades without bodycams
exactly…imagine what went on without them……
You’re right.
It should be a crime for law enforcement to request or turn off body cameras during a stop for another officer.
Sergeant sounded worn out by the situation. Shame to have to go through such a traffic stop. He knows his right from wrong, and stayed true to the oath. Bravo!
Needs to be published how many DUI busts the Capt has in his career.
Cant even do one count of the first test & seriously thinks begging for the camera to be turned off is a good idea.
It should be illegal for cops to turn off their cameras.
It is
As a law enforcement officer i am proud of your integrity and service as a police officer. Stay safe!!
Majority of cops think they are entitled to a free pass. Good to see ones on here like you who want them held accountable.
dude is he didnt have the camera that captain would have gotten a free ride back to the bar. Cameras are the worst thing that ever happened to cops
Ftp 😆
I fully disagree with stefan c. As a officer do you think cop should have cams on as long as they are on duty and not just during a investigation?
Complete joke. Do cops usually do sobriety tests without the suspects consent? Clown show
This officer deserves a pay raise, this is the example of what every law enforcement officer should be!
Why a pay raise for doing his job? That makes no sense..
@@youdontknowme2915I was going to say the same thing lol

Good for him! Finally a cop with integrity!
This man infuriated me so much. But I appreciate that you upheld yourself to such a high standard. Thank you
Well, that's cops for you! They are always getting each other out of trouble. Long standing history of this. A cop I worked with found his drunk son after he plowed into a telephone pole and surprise! no charges! No arrest! Shocker. Long history of not being charged and convicted.
God bless this fine officer. I hope he is patrolling our streets today and tomorrow and certainly wish he was patrolling in my hometown!
Unfortunately, this type of officer will be the one to lose his life over a traffic stop by some scumbag piece of trash!
He put that Sergeant in a difficult position due to his own poor choices. The Sergeant acted admirably and deserves much respect leading by example.
Once again, the officer was as nice to him as the officer could be. But he broke the law

Body cams to cops are like Kryptonite to Superman.
Definitely not going to be liked by his fellow officers
lol he really thought he was being discreet when asking the cop to shut off his bodycam
Notice how he immediately asked him to turn off his camera, almost as if that was something he's done before, or that he had a reasonable expectation that the officer would do that for him.
Notice how in every single video like this they all do that. If memory serves, I've literally never heard a cop not ask/demand special treatment during a DUI. Not being hyperbolic, literally every single time. And there are hundreds of examples. Great job this cop did, but there is so blatantly a problem with police culture in this country. And it's crazy too, because it's largely considered to be 'anti cop' when you try and change things so good cops like this can do their job without fear of retaliation.
Almost as if this is the type of thing that has been going on in law enforcement for decades. Oh wait, it is...
Don’t you love how people presented with evidence of cops doin the right thing - still try to weasel something bad out of what they’ve just seen. You guys are really something

Dude was sloshed to the point of alcohol poisoning. Maybe those are just his normal mannerisms, but he seemed extraordinarily drunk.
A+, 10/10 performance from this sergeant. It's not easy to do the right thing and hold your colleagues accountable. I'm sure he's talked about behind his back at his station and lost the respect of a lot of coworkers, but this is justice, and this is what all officers should strive to be. The police - and every other occupation - will never be perfect, but this officer's actions brings them closer to it, and that's heroic.
the fact that cops would lose respect for other cops because of that is unfathomable
Cops that don't respect other cops for holding their fellows to the same standard as a member of public are the rats that don't belong on the force in the first place.
Sadly, while some might treat the arresting officer unkindly, it's not his fault for following the oath he took. It's the Captain's fault for putting him in that position. That man should be ashamed of himself
How do you know that his colleagues have resentment towards him because he made this arrest? Did you see that in some day time cop soap opera? My assumption is that they’re glad they got a sloppy cop out of the force. That’s how I’d feel. Stop living in Hollywood’s imagine narrative.
If he lost the respect of his peers over his actions, then the opinions of his peers are not worth respecting.
I love how subtle he is being whispering “turn off the camera.” 😂 Police who break the law, especially when it poses such a huge risk to public safety should face enhanced sentencing. This certainly isn’t the first time he got smashed and drove home through his own city.
Don't tell them to get back in their car. Tell them to give their keys to you first.
Just whisper "turn the camera off" , worth a shot 😂 How many has he locked up for less
I admire the massive balls on the on duty officer. To not only arrest a fellow officer, but a freaking CAPTAIN in his OWN DEPARTMENT, man that’s courage. He’s almost certainly going to face hostilities from within his department for his integrity.
Doing proper procedure isn’t “massive balls”.
lol he cant just turn off the camera....
Courage. These are balls 🏀 🏐🏈🥎.
He was not from the same department. The amount of pushback be minimal I was a Cop for 23yrs and thecony ones angry are the ones like him who ask guys to turn off the camera
@@DudeCapone uhh yeah it is. Bet he doesn't keep his job much longer
This Sergeant needs to tour the US instructing fellow officers on how the job should be done!
WHAT AN OFFICER.
You can hear the disappointment in the officers voice good job officer
How embarrassing for any family he has, and his department!
Just goes to show you are not above the laws.
Love how he whispers to turn the camera off like the mic wouldn’t pick up the noise but the officer would be able to hear him. Drunk tyrants🤦🏽♂️🤷🏽♂️
I absolutely can only have respect to the man holding the law up to whomever he sees breaking it.
Entitled men should not ever be in charge of anything in the law enforcement department.
