No. He didn't do bad on the test. He nailed it.
He's suing them for rights violations and they are trying to sue him for putting the public accessible body cam footage out for the public. Dirty and corrupt department.
So if it’s already publicly available that’s an easy thing to defend against
@@calebshotsauce Still will cost the dude money up front for a lawyer. Granted, he should be wealthy after this BS.
He got a phat cheque out of it and it paid for his entire college education and he didn’t have to work at all thru college
@@allison4976 hell yeah
@@dicky7600 Ahh, americans and their "american rule" where all parties pay their own legal fees. Meanwhile, almost everywhere else in the world the rule that is followed is called "costs follow the event" which means that the losing party will also pay the winners legal fees. That drastically reduces the amount of frivolous lawsuits like these because it's a huge risk.
I watched the whole video, bro he proved them wrong in the most respectful ways. He didn't even get close to losing his patience.
where is the full video.. I couldn't find it.
I hope nothing like this ever happens to me because I know I don't have that level of patience. Would they drop assault on a leo if all other charges leading up to it were BS?
@@JSAFIXITNope. You’d be cooked on that one.
No matter how impatient you are, bite your tongue and keep your hands by your side or wherever the cop says.
Cause I’ve seen tons of police body cam videos and resisting arrest (let alone assaulting an officer) is the charge that never gets dropped. Ever.
It's very spykful and polite and patient. And you could definitely tell the kid wasn't high on anything or drunk. He was just too clean and they wanted him for something. I didn't want him to outsmart them.
@@krisfriederich610I think I saw it on the lackluster channel
Fabricating charges like this should be a felony
15k likes, guess everyone agrees 🙏
it isnt sadly... however in some cases it can get you suspended or even kicked from the force if its severe enough.
It’s typical for cops to lie on their report
@@Confused_Masterand then they go to the department in the town next door
It is…it’s called false arrest
I am like number 1k.
They counter sued him because he legally and lawfully shared public record which made them look bad because they did the bad things that made them look bad. The literally sued him because their actions made them look bad
It's an intimidation tactic. Nothing more.
@@a-human-interface4991 it is a crime as well.
They're throwing a hissy fit
They are being criminals trying to silence the victim they already committed crimes against.
the lawsuit was technically in regards to him saying the cop was a wife beater when he posted the vid. the cop has not been convicted of DV but has had a protective order placed against him multiple times, so it's not even defamation it's just true even if the thin blue line prevents his wife from getting justice.
still retaliation and the cop is defo part the 40%
They get real mad when you show their corrupt behavior.
Psychopathic minds act on impulse, ego driven
@@michaelnix6574and what kind of minds have we seen in America become cops? Those.
Its why they hate cameras.
The problem is that many of the cops get really mad for any reason whatsoever. The moment they put the badge on, their ego starts to inflate and they think that "they are the law" so they can do anything they want.
This
The fact that they can just take you in with no hard evidence is sickening. We’re all guilty until proven innocent.
The idea is that they can detain you if they suspect you of a crime so you can’t keep committing it while they obtain proof. This is frequently abused though
Innocent until proven guilty is a fantasy. It only exists when you are on your private property and heavily armed so nobody will take a chance arresting you until after a court has issued a judgement against you.
My friend, this is Russia. We're all guilty and waiting to be arrested.
Wait till you find out that men accused of rape often spend years in prison without a lick of evidence.
Land of the free....
The kid was super respectful and obedient. He passed EVERY SINGLE TEST. The officer still arrested him and accused him. Just watch the video, you'll be blown away
No I won't! They nailed me similarly. Only they got away with it! No evidence was even needed.
That's why you NEVER consent to a test by an officer. They can't legally force you. All the police are looking for is something to confirm their suspicion, they don't really care about the evidence
@@bigdipper620yup! That’s how it is. Their opinion is always taken more seriously… even thought they FUCK UP ALL THE TIME
It's sad because if they'll do that to cooperating citizens, think about the scared and/or uncooperative. This is WHY a lot of people don't cooperate 😢
ACAB
The cop is literally doing everything he can to get this guy to prison. Tayvin, i hope you win
Of course he will win “oh no our own body can footage makes us look corrupt and incompetent it must be the victim’s fault”
@@mmhhjj34 yeah well with the current justice system we have right now, it decreases the chances of winning
Operation while intoxicated 1st offense is a serious misdemeanor. You might get 2 days in jail. Idk where the fuck you're getting prison from.
And probably seize the car
Police are the enemy of freedom
Gotta point out the cop definitely got his ego hurt and arrested him. Because he was answering with so much confidence that the officer got intimated.
*If you are stopped by a cop! Say this 1 thing, ONLY*
"Am I being detained? Am I free to go?"
Don't get out of your car! Do not submit to any tests or searches! Just show ID/reg and keep repeating, "Am I being detained? _Am I free to go_ " Cops are incentivized to get away with anything/everything they can, DON'T LET THEM! Not you, not today!
Even if you _have_ been drinking, play it cool, repeat the phrase, and don't submit to field tests. Eventually, they may try to detain you. They might bring you to the station and make you wait, but that's a _good thing_ bc it gives you time to get more sober. 3hrs later when they're testing you at the station, you're clean and they have to let you go.
But usually, if you're this kid's situation, cops are just being bullies & trying to trick you bc they think you don't know your rights!!
KNOW YOUR RIGHTS!
AM I BEING DETAINED?
AM I FREE TO GO?
If you're not being detained for a legal reason, they have to let you go.
Source: Several defense lawyers, including one who drives drunk but has no DUI on his record bc he uses this technique when cops try to bother him.
@@DLlama Its usually a better idea to say hello first. Break those questions out when they start asking you anything beyond "Do you know why I pulled you over?" and say "No."
@@ashleythompson7879100 percent. Yep
High beams got him all this harassment? Slow night, officers?
Males and their egos 🙄
“What do you mean none…” has to be just about the dumbest thing I’ve ever heard come out of someone’s mouth. It was a perfectly logical response to the question he posed.
What he meant to say
"Liar"
He had decided he was drunk the second he pulled him over. Even went so far to say he slurred his words when that never happen and the kid consistently spoke clearer than the officer. Cops deciding people are guilty and working backwards to find evidence to support their assumptionis a massive problem with police. When this cop couldn't find evidence, he just made shit up, and this is not a unique situation.
Smh yup believe everything online......the kid was stoned af so the cop thought he was drunk still a DUI
@@cedoboston2616 he literally passed a drug test back at the station if you pay attention…

@@TechneMakre bruh
The CIA actually did that when they were accused of assassinating JFK.
Capitalism and politicians got us into this mess and I bet capitalism could get us out if we set up a business that competes with police forces.
The company will make most of its profits from having lawyers sue corrupt cops, holding their own employees accountable when they go too far, and bodycam livestreams with either in the COPS show style or VTuber reaction commentary.
In some areas the company wasn’t successful or the police stop getting funded or they’re both still around either working together or SPY VS SPY.
you act like yttie doesnt have rights

That corrupt officers should face charges for false imprisonment.
More likely they'll be immediately rehired somewhere else to continue doing this crap.
The NERVE to counter sue him after a false arrest like that is completely mind boggling
There was no false arrest he was guilty. The video shows it.
@@timrosencrans7955 He wasn’t guilty I saw the full video and there was no indication he was intoxicated he also blew zeros. Bro did you even watch the video? The piggy got his ego hurt so he decided to waste more of his time filling paperwork.
@@timrosencrans7955The breathalyzer showed he wasn't drunk and the drug test showed he wasn't on anything else. You should rewatch the video.
The cop arrested him unlawfully.
@@timrosencrans7955in order to be arrested for a crime - you have to commit a crime. He didn’t. He got dragged away against his will and against his 4th amendment right. High beams are just a simple traffic stop and do not allow for arrests.

Additional info: he was part of his school's football team. They do weekly drug tests, he stated this as well.

Same thing happened to my daughter. They pulled her over in alittle hick town she was driving through to get home. Accused her of DWI. She doesn't drink. They arrested her. She blew 0 on the breathalyzer & nothing found on blood test either. She was jailed all weekend and it cost $3000 for a bondsman to get her out. They STILL tried to charge her with DWI even with no evidence. Finally the judge dismissed it but she was still out the $3000 & 2 days jailed for doing nothing wrong.
You should sue them in civil court to recoup the costs. No lawyer needed.
It's crazy why they even try doing this stuff.. are they just on a power trip? Stupid? It boggles the mind.
Federal Civil Rights lawsuit (Bill of Rights #4 and/or #5, I think).
@edgeldine3499 Small towns use it as tax revenue and they use bullshit charges against every out-of-towner they can pull over to pad the budget.
I thought the whole idea of Posting Bond is that you only lose it if you don't turn up to the court date. Turn up to court, get the Bond back. That's the whole point of posting bond...
His speech is clear, He walked a straight line perfectly. These officers are so disappointing to put him through this. These are the officers who do not need to be on the force.
He also blew a 0 watch the full video
They claimed he failed because he misheard how many steps to take. If I remember correctly, the officer also initially claimed to have smelled the overwhelming smell of Alcohol coming from the vehicle (PC for the Sobriety Test in the first place), but there was no alcohol. Cop either straight up lied or his brain is fried smelling stuff that isn't there.
@@LC-uh8ifI'll take "he lied" on that one.
@@LC-uh8ifcops lie. They can also lie about the FST performance. If you get a cop claiming to smell alcholol or weed and you know you don't have it, he's a liar and you should not do any of these tests except the chemical ones the state may require. No state requires the physical FSTs, that's a myth. The worst some states allow is for refusal to be used as evidence in court, but CA decent lawyer can argue that away.
Just comply, right?
The convo the cop has on the sidelines away from the scene was really telling. Cop simply didn't like his attitude and was looking for any reason to fuck with him.
Way too many cops gonna teach somebody a lesson. “Respect my authority!”
@@peacefulpossum2438 as Cartmsn says “Respect my authoritah”
As someone who has seen and known extremely respectable and professional police officers, the kind in this video make me really sad to see

Most likely not they did nothing that they were not allowed to do.
Cops can take you in for any reason they want and all they have to say it you acted a little funny to get off.
@ryanclemons1 when it's thus blatant, and on camera and the video goes viral... you know there's bound to be a settlement of some sort and they're getting chewed out behind closed doors at least for the negative PR brought to the department.
@@Spartantag676 I guess we will see but my money is on nothing really happening.
if a 19 year old sober athlete didn’t pass the tests
neither will you
don’t consent to sobriety tests
It's pretty telling that other civilized countries don't do the roadside humiliation circus at all. Breathalyzer and if drugs are suspected a quick-test mouth swab.
I mean ive been put through a field sobriety test and passed it. They made me cuz they smelled my vape in the car when they pulled me and thought it might be alcohol on my breath. Let me go no issues when i did the check and passed it. Its just a matter of if the cop wants to mess with you and if they do refusing to do a field sobriety test is NOT gonna help you. It gives them MORE reasonable suspicion to pull search warrants for your car or escalate it however they choose.
@@quappoNo you have every right to refuse and plead the fifth, it's your right. If they smell alcohol then ask for a breathalyzer and that's it, if they insist you're on drugs then the cops are corrupt anyways so one way or another you'll be getting detained anyways..
In some states refusing to take sobriety tests is actually viewed as an admission of guilt, so it’s so stupid bcz there no way out. They should just take what the breathalyzer says bcz that’s not subjective
@@tylisirnI failed a quick mouth swab test for methamphetamine, when I've never even been around the stuff... Luckily it was a pre-employment test and they just redid it to a negative result, but still...
Because they have to be right. Their ego gets bruised.
They be like, "I'M the one with the uniform on!" Like my mama says, uniforms cover up a lot.
Youre supoose to pee in your pants when the officer says anything
They’re probably narcissists
They have nothing better to do
@linda... Exactly. They don't want to look bad so they'll come up with anything they can just to save face & not look like the fools that they are. 🙏❤😡
So maybe it's time to start making public these departments information.
This is a perfect example of why so many people don't trust or flat out hate cops.
Same mentality as racism. "I met a bad one, therefore they're all bad".
Ehhhhh..... I dont it think this is quite why.
Ehhhhhh, hating all cops because some are bad is kinda immoral, generalization never helps anything
@@_yoshivolts_115Your logic goes both ways. Trusting all cops because some are good is similar to blind hero worship
Especially considering it’s a government job that gives you power and authority over everyone else in society, the benefit of internal investigations done by peers in the brotherhood of police, qualified immunity, working relationships with prosecutors, etc etc.
The high school bully to police officer pipeline is a known phenomenon for a reason
@@_yoshivolts_115I bet if the pigs had dog shit on their boots you would still lick them
Dirty cops need to be held accountable
accountable means fired and blacklisted
That's hard to do when it's dirty cops that are supposed to hold them accountable
Accountable means promotion
so most police
Of course sir we’ll suspend them with pay of course!
I saw this whole video. The cop just refused to admit that he was wrong and just kept doubling down, never once considering that he would end up looking worse than if he just admitted he made a mistake. Total D-bag.
How much have you had to drink tonight?
_None_
[He does a negativeon the breathalizer]
I can smell an odor, when did you smoke weed last?
@@Thule21 - I have never understood this whole “I can smell an odor of alcohol.” Weed, ok 👍 since that’s quite pungent. But, I’ve been around many friends when they were drinking and I wasn’t, and I have never smelled this elusive odor of alcohol from more than a couple feet away.
These days, cops smell an odor of alcohol 15 feet away immediately after a split second of encountering the person. They’re like X-Men. 😂
A dirty cop will never smell the truth
Being placed in a position of power and authority as for instance a police officer has severe mental effects and can skew someone's behavior, which the US fails to train for
Typical cop behavior
Criminals always get angry when someone exposes them to the world.
When I got my DUI 14 years ago, my lawyer was an ex state trooper and he told me that those field sobriety tests are designed to make you fail. Even if you're sober, there is a high chance you will mess up. When they make you do the line walk, the trick is to listen to every detail he is saying on how to walk the line. Most people think as long as they walk straight they will be fine, but in reality most people fail by not putting your heel right against your toe. Most people leave a inch or two gap between the feet and fail. The lawyer said to always decline the field tests, agree only to breathalyzer
Would just saying "no, I'm not doing the sobriety test, take me to the station and make me do a drug test" work? I'm not gonna have charges for no good reason
My school did D.A.R.E when I was in 5th grade. The officer actually accused one of my classmates of being drunk at school. My classmate volunteered to try the test in front of the class. The kid had a break down and that was the second to last straw for the program at our school. Cherry on top I went to a private Christian school.
@@d_the_great”I do not answer questions without a lawyer and I do not consent to the field tests, get a warrant and I’ll happily take a blood test at the station.” Easy peezy
Edit: They don’t need a warrant for breathalyzers! But they do for blood tests for drugs. Yes, you consent automatically to a breathalyzer when you get your license, but they can’t use force to do the tests without a warrant (which they can get pretty quickly over the computer in the car) If you know you’re not drunk, take it but you can refuse to take the breathalyzer and they can’t force you, so they’ll get a warrant and take you to the station for a blood test.
No. Any basic functioning human being should easily be able to pass all tests completely sober
@OberWanKenobii you don't have to fail the tests for the cops to say you failed
Blatantly corrupt cop

Those cops are now suing this kid for "defamation" lmfao you cant make this shit up 😂
JFC. Id add another counter suit on that for harassment. That poor kid
oh well, maybe shouldnt have made a fool out of themselves and they wouldn't have been in thew situation. besides to defame someone is to spread false rumors about them in order to hurt their reputation. they did it to themselves and all he did was post the body cam footage, the whole thing/ nothing was left out nor taken out of context, this defamation case will be thrown out so fast
Defamation is Damaging the reputation of someone by liable or slander. He is only showing what they actually did. So they just gave him a case that is won by showing the evidence that he already has online. He can of course counter sue that defamation claim for costs and emotional damages. Which should net him another good payout... Do these 2 cops just want to dig themselves another bigger hole to jump in ?
The kid should sue them for defamation, they almost ended his football career and the charges are still on his record.
@@albratgaming2348 let's see what these cops do. Imo them suing for defamation just hurt their own reputation even more
As government employees operating in an official capacity, they shouldn’t be allowed to sue for defamation. Any person should be able to speak freely about their government without fear.
So, to clarify, if you get a paycheck from the government, then people should be allowed to call you a rapist, a murderer etc with no comeback? I can see no way in which that could go wrong...
Plot twist the officer was the one who was intoxicated and high.

Lawyer is the first thing you say when they first arrest you and the only thing you say is that you want a lawyer from that point until you have one with you.

Exactly.
Yeah, ask any black person.
They need to be fucking FIRED.
Every arrest they made without hard evidence; especially for sobriety issues will be questioned. Lawyers are eyeing this up i figure.
Take away qualified immunity and I guarantee you there won't be stuff like this.
That’s bullshit, everyone thinks getting rid of qualified immunity will change this. You have the city and the department to go after. Imagine for a minute the left wing funded groups suing every cop they wanted to for the stupidest shit just to bankrupt them. That’s not how the law is supposed to work where legit cops can’t do their jobs.
I hate to see shit like this and yes there are some cops who do shit like this. At the same time there are cops that go above and beyond who do good work that don’t deserve to have their personal lives threatened every time they do their jobs.
Look at the soros sponsored DA who don’t do their jobs and allow crazy acts to go unpunished. We don’t need groups suing cops for no reason in an effort to influence them.

@@cochran321you do not know what qualified immunity is
@@chromiumearth I do in fact know exactly what it is, you must not.
QI is not the issue, QI when not used properly is the issue. QI should not apply for what the cops did to this kid. (I'm not sure it did)
Also when they get rid of QI (a few states and cities have) they create a new worse version of QI and call it something else.
The only way to get rid of the insanity that this kid went through is holding cops accountable for bad police work. Period.
He posted his own video and PUBLICLY ACCESSIBLE footage and they are suing?
NEVER trust any law enforcement officer as long as shit like this happens.
Keep in mind that the officer’s supervisor was at the scene and allowed the false arrest to happen. The kid passed all the tests at night in the rain. The cop was mad the kid was playing college ball and he never made it.

@@yourstonersensei1907 super sorry man, hope you can get something good out of it
i saw that video- he did really well. He didn't challenge the officers or give them any reason to add charges, he just complied with instructions, said why he wasn't impaired., and asked for a breathalyzer. Now he has a great case for a lawsuit and the support of millions.
the issue is the cops get no punishment besides some bad press while us the tax payers get stuck with the bill, i think he should take them to court to get an investigation done and of course a payday for damage's
Yeah Millions from taxpayers funding municipal insurance for cops. This false accusation is why people distrust cops to be facilitators of justice.
That's the precise issue here. They're looking for issues over a trivial thing I see many drivers do. And all the taxes that go to their equipment and vehicles and services that support their endeavours... What a waste of resources to spend on harassing a guy when there are reckless drivers, traffickers, abusers, murderers, thieves, and coordinated crime rings to stamp out? If he were more suspect, then I'd understand, but he was as cooperative as you can be and the pigs still treated him like they expected him to be guilty.
That's a little thing called profiling, and it's against the law.

@@fluviusgaming1125 There's lots online if you search his name.
The case is still working its way through the courts.
This happened in Aug of 22. In Feb 23 he sued.
The cops countersued for defamation. most of their case (whining about the bodycam footage being uploaded to the internet being an invasion of their privacy) was dismissed.
The parts that weren't, were accusations that officer Winters was guilty of DV. (if he has proof, it's not defamation and he'll win that one.)
If only the mayor, city administrator, and chief of police didn't cover for power tripping cops arresting a guy because he wasn't using drugs . . . .This wouldn't have gone this far.
“How many drinks have you had ?”
“NONE”
“What do you mean none ?”
The cop sounded like he had more than a few and needed a drug test
The right answer to that question is "I"m not talking about my night officer." and if they push it plead the fifth.
For this exact reason.
"What do you mean one?"
"So where did you drink these 2 shots at?"
"Where you alone when you drank the six pack?"
"Which bar was it you emptied?"
Dude literally doesn't know what none means.
“None”
“But what does that mean? Can there ever be truly nothing? Is there ever _more_ than nothing? Are we all just something made of nothing? Are we even something?”
“Bro just let me go home”
never do a field sobriety test. they are subjective. the results can be whatever the officer imagines. The only test that is required by law is the breath test.

Classic example of why you SHOULDN’T DO FIELD SOBRIETY TESTS even if you’re not intoxicated.
sadly some states declining will automatically get u charged with dui and arrested. even when ur not drunk which is a beyond messed up law. like yeah ill decline but then yall automatically assume that means im guilty? i can understand i guess the one for refusing breathalyzer to a small degree. but the arrest and automatically being guilty for refusing field tests?! so dumb
@@autumnwillows7942sounds like a 5th ammendment violation to me.
@@autumnwillows7942I think it depends on the state, I’ve seen some where if you refuse to do field sobriety tests, they take you to the station to do a blood test (maybe they don’t have breathalyzers?) if you refuse to take a breathalyzer, I can see why they’d want to take you to the station (again, probably to do a blood test). So I think even the smaller details about the laws differ from state to state. And absolutely it is fucking stupid to take somebody back to the station after a breathalyzer showed 0 alcohol, even if it was pot, they had nothing showing that he smoked pot or had any in his possession.
@@autumnwillows7942 you won’t get in trouble for refusing a field test. You can however for refusing the breathalyzer or chemical test. You have the right to refuse the field tests but not the chemical ones because when you get your license you sign a thing saying you’re willing to take them

I had something similar happen to me when I was 19. Pulled over. My eyes were red because I wasn't getting any sleep from previous days. So then the cop says " I smell marijuana" To which I said, "You need to get your nose checked, no one smokes in this car." They are always looking for ways to harass citizens.
This is so important to do when they claim the smell of alcohol or marijuana is to verbally object. If you do not verbally object and in court, they can try to claim that since you didn't object verbally that you are basically accepting that the officer is correct. Don't incriminate yourself but do dispute any assumptions that are being made that are flat out false.
Okay but you also shouldn't be driving while sleep-deprived. It's nearly as bad as driving under the influence.
Okay mom. Missed the point entirely. I was 19 then and seems like you are dismissing the officers actions. I wasn't swerving or driving recklessly. I got pulled over for not having working taillights THEN he saw my eyes were red and ASSUMED I was under the influence. So clearly, he was mistaken and I explained what my situation was and STILL HE accused me of smoking and was still was given a field sobriety test with a breathalyzer test. If you are the type that likes wasting your time with nonsense and getting harassed all the time by law enforcement then by all means, be my guest. That's how people get shot by "mistake". By making fake assumptions and accusations like: "HE'S got a WEAPON!" only to find out later that the child was really only carrying the remote control to his TV and now he's dead.

Yeah that's tests are extremely subjective and inaccurate. I've failed one completely sober and I've seen blind tests done to prove the point. It's bad science if you want to be extremely generous with the definition of science. There are a lot of archaic systems still used by LEO that should be retired.

I live in the same county. Cops out here don’t really like to follow the rules and I’ve been told by my friend that’s a cop that the older dudes on the force started quitting, as soon as they were required to wear a body cam, because “back in the old days, you could hit a guy a few times and send them on their way, instead of arresting them.” That’s verbatim what a lieutenant told him.
