These officer's need to be held accountable for their lie's under oath in the court's, they should be made to pay all fee's incurred, not the tax payer.
As far I'm concerned it was the Prosecutor AND Preliminary Judges that should be held accountable for taking this to trial with NO evidence. They pursued it only to publish the driver for not playing their game. Everyone but the driver and the jury was being paid to participate in this farce. (Even our good guy Larry)
Actually if they lie in court, they should be held accountable for perjury. That would be jail time and fines. No doubt it would cause an officer to lose their job when convicted. Of course the DA won’t charge them since the DA and police are bedmates. In addition, every arrest the officer made should be brought into question. That will cost the DA office even more time and money if they want to fight every case.

A cop arresting someone for DUI with no evidence is bad enough, but the fact this was prosecuted with no evidence is even worse. Literally the only evidence was that the cop smelled alcohol from the car? Really? I like how he testified he smelled it from the guys breath, but never wrote it down, AND when asked, said "it's been several months since this incident occurred, I can't recall it off the top of my head." So he could recall specifically that he smelled alcohol from his breath on direct, but couldn't recall any other relevant or important detail not noted in his citation because it was several months ago? How convenient!
Current DUI defendant here. I'm being charged in retaliation to staying silent on other matters. Was never accused of DUI during the initial arrest nor offered a blood/breath test at the time although the police report claims I denied 2 of them.

Yes. The Ride is what's important, the police don't care about the law. They barely study law at the "academy" and in fact, train more on firing their weapons than the law. Getting citizens in cages is what it is about.
All the people in America who constantly think only a tiny fraction of the LEOs are corrupt need to watch videos like this. These officers are taught from the beginning to misrepresent the law to achieve a charge even when there is no evidence.
4:54 He smelled alcohol and suspected the driver could be under the influence but he asked the driver to stay behind the wheel and drive to another spot. How stupid is this cop? I am just at this part now, so I don't know what happens.
Watching Larry Work is like watching Bob Ross paint. Starts off with a few strokes of the brush and next thing you know you have a full beautiful clear painting in front of you. 🖼
When I say the rich can get away with murder I say this because it is hard to find an attorney worth hiring and when one is found the cost normally is very difficult for the average person to afford. I would argue the matter is too important not to get the best but honestly, if I was pulled tonight I would not have the money to be represented properly. Larry, you are a credit to the profession and I love watching you turn the screws on not just the police officer but in many cases the prosecutor as well.
cops know they can lie in contacts on the street, and they do. The worse problem is the suspicion that cops also lie in court under oath even, as this cop seems to have done. Is that not purjury, and is it not a criminal offense, and should this cop not face those charges ?
The judge and prosecutor allows cops to lie while on the stand as long as they can get your money, this is how courts in America operate, and this is why more people need to know how rigged the system is.
I’m going to be honest, it could be a small town. Small towns don’t give a fuck about the law or even human courtesy. If they can fill their quota they will.
Without a good lawyer this guy would have been convicted, so basically if you’re poor you’re fucked! And public pretenders are a fucking joke because they work for the courts ! No wonder they didn’t allow the man to get a blood test let’s say at the hospital because he might have passed!
@@angieroxx1006right.. yet that dumb song in a "small town" he acts like they hold so much pride and ALL look out for eachother, when in. Reality smalls towns equal small minds and smaller morals
@@nini_noone3351you’re equating small town people with small town police forces. That’s completely illogical. Small town people are often on the receiving end of tyrannical small town policing. I’ve lived in various areas, from a population of 700 to a population of 1.5 million. Small towns are much more friendly and do look out for their own more than big cities, in my anecdotal experience. That has nothing to do with the type of ppl who are attracted into LEO.
It's so fun to watch these cops go from calm and confident, to realizing they have been tricked into making themselves look quite stupid. And the lawyer does it so easily. They don't even see it coming. But of course, the cops get their education from "the academy" and it's obvious they don't really teach them much.
NEVER take the tests no matter what. The tests are specifically designed to make you fail. I have year round hayfever/allergies and 3 banged up discs in my back. I would have NO chance with them based on their criteria. I'm 11 years sober. And they'd have me in a cell. NEVER talk to the police unless it is the absolute bare minimum that offers NOTHING. And if you have nothing to say, PLEASE KEEP YOUR MOUTH SHUT. The COPS tell us this.
@@joshdavis3743 How about you don't drive...then you never have a cop problem. It may shock you, but drinking and driving is not illegal. Driving IMPAIRED is illegal.
Good Lord, watching that prosecutor try to use Google Earth during the trial was the most cringiest awkwardest pointless things I've ever seen. I can't believe a judge allowed it. Wait of course they did because they have no idea how technology works.

I always find it interesting that your barber or hairdresser (cosmetologist) needs one year of training to be certified, but cops need only weeks to be on the job.

As someone who hasn't had a drop of alcohol in 32 years and hasn't driven since 1997, rhetorically speaking, why do I get so excited when you win these cases?? Whatever the reason may be, you're a real professional and I love these videos!! Saw the livestream the other day, during which you and the former cop were commenting on various videos. It was really entertaining, except for the poor girl who was killed at the beginning. That was horrendous!! Thanks very much for all of your videos!! 👍 🎯
@@thomasmills3934 people who film police will often ask the officers that approach them what their name is, and the cops almost always give a sarcastic response by pointing at their name badge and say "it's right here"
The guy refuses to take a road side test or a breathalyzer because it's "he doesn't have to" but is willing to take a blood test which is more accurate and intrusive. The cop doesn't want to give him a blood test because "he doesn't have to" give him the blood test.
the road side test is pointless. if the cop wants to arrest you for DUI, it doesn't matter how good you do on the test, or even if you do it perfectly, he will arrest you for it (it's often done so the cop will have an excuse to arrest you). he should have agreed for the breath test, if he was in fact clean (and I'm guessing he was, because he wanted a blood test). good for him that he got out of the dui, kinda strange that the cops didn't come in with any evidence for alcohol.

they stop you and the more charges they can pile on the better for their career...he had a valid DL and the cop proved it...he wasn't driving on a suspended DL, he just forgot it at home...which almost everyone has done at some point in their lives...shouldn't get a ticket or arrested for that...especially these days when they can prove it in a minute on scene
I also thought you were allowed to produce a valid DL within a certain amount of time in case you forgot it. All they really need is your name and DOB and they can prove in their system that your DL is valid.
These days, prosecutors have a very difficult time getting a jury to convict if the case relies primarily on law enforcement testimony. Even if one were to stipulate that cops are sincere and of good moral character, they demonstrate that they are sloppy in their work and only have a superficial understanding of how the law applies.
The last time I was called for jury duty I was told that the only evidence was police testimony and asked if I could convict on that (or something to that effect). “No”. I was excused.
This cop has likely just learned to pad his police reports, just like the rest learn to do. It is instances like these that lead to shouts of "stop resisting" when you are not, etc.
Yelp, he did not play their game and the cop and prosecutor were pissed. But the funny part is the cop and prosecutor was done the exact same thing in the driver's place.
You don't need to and shouldn't answer any questions from an officer on a traffic stop. They are fishing for reasons to arrest you. Why would you help them, especially when you aren't required?
In my experience with LEO'S if they want to arrest you, they are gonna do that regardless if you answer their questions or not. REMAIN SILENT AND RESPECTFUL AND FIGHT IT IN COURT. NEVER INCRIMINATE YOURSELF IF BEING QUESTIONED. THEY ARE NOT YOUR FRIEND EVEN IF YOUR 100% INNOCENT
The best is the closing arguments with groves come off and gentleman manners are abandoned as Larry calls a lying cop, a lying cop, and a corrupt prosecutor, prosecuting a nothing case. Then the prosecutor has to try to convince the jury of he and the lying cops are righteous and honorable men despite what the jury saw them to be.
This police officer told us lies under oath. I believe that he didn't have any remorse or pay for this violation of trust or desertification of his law enforcement standing by his superiors a clear and present danger to our society.
My sworn testimony today is that I can't say that he was driving carefully because I don't know what was going on in his head. For all I know he was doing everything in his power to drive recklessly, but he might have been so drunk that it was imparing his driving to the point that everything he did was completely safe. *blink blink*
The DUI Guy has great followers, we all need an organization that we can get together and defend each other from corrupt public servants, One for all and All for one
Why would you arrest me if you just said you were just trying to check and see if I was under the influence but soon as I refuse all of the test that your trying to get me to take to incriminate me you're going to arrest me what?!?
Usually I only a play a lawyer on Twitter, however after learning the Forman method, I feel prepared to defend DUIs in Kentucky as long as defendants never consent to any tests. My prediction is that Larry Forman will be responsible for Kentucky finally getting around to requiring body cameras so these prosecutors don't have to keep going through this same humiliation time and again, lol.
It's really hard to believe with the huge advancements over the past 20 years in video and audio technology that a government building would have video and audio equipment this bad in 2022. If this were the 90's or early 2000's I would expect it, but there's really no excuse in 2022.
Really my states systems are extremely old our Dept of Labor, DMV, ect are old, we just learned how old after breaches, The 51-year-old mainframe uses F-COBOL, a code that was around before Combined Business-Oriented Language, or COBOL, the language created in 1959 by Grace Murray Hopper, was standardized. Yes you heard that right 51 year old system finally taken out of service as a Dept of Labor mainframe. Because they had a breach of 180,000 people losing bank acct information and social security numbers, our states population is under 650,000 so it definitely covers a large percentage of the population. You'd be surprised how many state controlled branches including the court are just as old and outdated.
Yes, no camera and it is either false or didn’t happen. A police report should be, date, time, GPS location, and see videos. Simple and truthful as long as no editing is allowed.
I think it's ridiculous that they give a time limit on trying to contact a lawyer. Most lawyers are not going to answer the first time you call if after hours. And of course they don't allow you to receive a call back to speak to your lawyer or if your lawyer were to come down to the jail would they allow him to speak to you. Your rights don't end after 10 min of having representation. This kind of statute should be fought at the highest level of court.
@@useridgaf-p6b it’s a way to not commit perjury the legal way. Nobody can really do anything about it when you don’t recall,it’s when you tell a complete lie that you get busted for perjury,and yet cops and politicians lie hourly.
So wait, he smelled alcohol on his breath, thought he was impaired, so he... told him to keep driving? Down a street, through a traffic light, into an intersection, around a corner, and into a parking lot? 🤔 As far as taking 30 seconds to open the glove box, Tesla frequently updates the car and changes the location of where certain functions are on the UI. On top of that, it can be configured with a PIN. One thing I'm wondering, as a lawyer, following a jury trial, are you given the opportunity to ask the jury what exactly they found compelling abou lt your arguments or what facts of the case were essentially slam dunks? That would be interesting to learn after each verdict.

I cut ties with him and never spoke to him in 30 years. Scumbags.
what I would say. Q: you refused to road side DUI test, answer yes. Q: why is that? answer : I belive those test are made for you to fail. Q: how so?, answer I`ve seen alot videos of cops deny those test in same situasions, if the cops who do those test say so. I belive they have more experiense to say so.
@@glee21012 that isn't hearsay. That's him stating facts. He believes something. He believes it because of videos of real events he saw. He believes something.
And this is why you refuse every test offered by police, even when they threaten that by refusing you MAY lose your licence. All the tests are designed to elicit more evidence against you which is why almost every copper, to a man, refuses to participate in any tests. They are not designed to prove your innocence but are to help them build a case against you.
The problem with refusing a blood test is that, not only can you lose your license, but then the cop can get a warrant for a blood draw in a few minutes from a judge. All they have to tell the judge is that they have "probable cause" to believe that you are impaired. You should definitely refuse all road side tests and not answer any questions!
Seems that our judicial system today - police officers, city and state attorneys, even judges - are actively and enthusiastically “on the hunt” for supposedly PRESUMED INNOCENT citizens! Seems to me a better and more faithfully adherent to - if not the letter of the Constitution, then at the least, “spirit” of it - would be for those government agencies and agents to observe the average, hard-working American citizens struggling to make a living with calm and overall “trustful” eyes. It should be well understood that our Founders had VERY LITTLE trust in governments and their agents, which is why they put in place the supreme law of our land, the Constitution and The Bill of Rights! They knew full well of the ravenous nature of governments and its insatiable hunger it has for its citizens, having recently experienced such tyranny, going so far as to spend the blood of thousands of those same citizens fighting its ambitiously “policing-hungry” evils. America was birthed for the very purpose of eradicating such hostile degradations and centralized depravity toward regular everyday people, bringing about in their place God-given Liberty and Justice! In view of such realities and our hard-won history with wildly over-reaching federal, state, and local agents such as police, judges, and prosecutors, I believe the afore mentioned should practice restraint with regard to a voracious and overbearing “drive” to, in want of a better term, “preying upon” the American citizen.
I thought it was a complete and skillful defense. DWI/DUI are serious charges against someone. I think sometimes the police make these arrests too routine.
Bingo. You totally right. If the driver had any accident on the way to the parking lot cop would be liable for it because he let suspected drunk driver drive on public road.
the citation does not need to be an accurate adaptation of what happened it is an approximation if the prosecution is happy taking a man's livelihood and possibly his home on an approximation, that is totally unacceptable (approximately). The law and pregnancy both deal in facts it is either right wrong she is either pregnant or not she cannot be a little pregnant
Why this cops are not ashamed of themself? How they can sleep at night? Being able to look honest people in their eyes without feeling like shit? Lying, lying, falsifying arrest reports, just making staff up.

Yes. The Ride is what's important, the police don't care about the law. They barely study law at the "academy" and in fact, train more on firing their weapons than the law. Getting citizens in cages is what it is about.
@@kevindunlap5525 Cops, like storm troopers, are notoriously inaccurate with a firearm.
Malicious cop/prosecution!
Muppets, looking to get his figures and promotion.
All the people in America who constantly think only a tiny fraction of the LEOs are corrupt need to watch videos like this. These officers are taught from the beginning to misrepresent the law to achieve a charge even when there is no evidence.
YES ! FINELY WE HEAR THE DECISION OF THE JURY !
DON'T YOU MEAN FINALLY?
I've seen several with the jury's decision.
4:54 He smelled alcohol and suspected the driver could be under the influence but he asked the driver to stay behind the wheel and drive to another spot. How stupid is this cop? I am just at this part now, so I don't know what happens.
it's hilarious watching the confidence of all the cops drop when the DUI Guy gets ahold of them 🤣. what a beast! Wish you did more than dui's
He does now , He just expanded his practice to criminal defense other than DUI and has more Attorneys
One of the oldest tricks they teach in the academy, "I smell alcohol" "I smell weed".
And sometimes it's them.😊
Ya I hate that it is enough for "probable cause" any cop can walk up and say oh I smell weed, and your property is getting searched.
Thank you for including the verdict!
Watching Larry Work is like watching Bob Ross paint. Starts off with a few strokes of the brush and next thing you know you have a full beautiful clear painting in front of you. 🖼
Perfect analogy
@@CarharttCowboy thank you 🙂
When I say the rich can get away with murder I say this because it is hard to find an attorney worth hiring and when one is found the cost normally is very difficult for the average person to afford. I would argue the matter is too important not to get the best but honestly, if I was pulled tonight I would not have the money to be represented properly.
Larry, you are a credit to the profession and I love watching you turn the screws on not just the police officer but in many cases the prosecutor as well.
So pausing before answering police questions is a sign of intoxication
Trooper was fishin' and the jury wore polarized glasses!
cops know they can lie in contacts on the street, and they do. The worse problem is the suspicion that cops also lie in court under oath even, as this cop seems to have done. Is that not purjury, and is it not a criminal offense, and should this cop not face those charges ?
The judge and prosecutor allows cops to lie while on the stand as long as they can get your money, this is how courts in America operate, and this is why more people need to know how rigged the system is.
I’m going to be honest, it could be a small town. Small towns don’t give a fuck about the law or even human courtesy. If they can fill their quota they will.
Without a good lawyer this guy would have been convicted, so basically if you’re poor you’re fucked! And public pretenders are a fucking joke because they work for the courts ! No wonder they didn’t allow the man to get a blood test let’s say at the hospital because he might have passed!
@@angieroxx1006right.. yet that dumb song in a "small town" he acts like they hold so much pride and ALL look out for eachother, when in. Reality smalls towns equal small minds and smaller morals
@@nini_noone3351you’re equating small town people with small town police forces. That’s completely illogical. Small town people are often on the receiving end of tyrannical small town policing. I’ve lived in various areas, from a population of 700 to a population of 1.5 million. Small towns are much more friendly and do look out for their own more than big cities, in my anecdotal experience. That has nothing to do with the type of ppl who are attracted into LEO.
It's so fun to watch these cops go from calm and confident, to realizing they have been tricked into making themselves look quite stupid. And the lawyer does it so easily. They don't even see it coming. But of course, the cops get their education from "the academy" and it's obvious they don't really teach them much.
But they'd be there if you needed them
@@AmyBaxter-l4sLate and to make the situation worse
@@AmyBaxter-l4slame line and blatant lie for many. Cops murder people who ask for help.
So never submit their tests and let your GREAT attorney solve it in court.
He agreed to a blood text but the cop's ego of not taking the test he wanted is the reason the cop didn't agree to it.
NEVER take the tests no matter what. The tests are specifically designed to make you fail. I have year round hayfever/allergies and 3 banged up discs in my back. I would have NO chance with them based on their criteria. I'm 11 years sober. And they'd have me in a cell.
NEVER talk to the police unless it is the absolute bare minimum that offers NOTHING. And if you have nothing to say, PLEASE KEEP YOUR MOUTH SHUT. The COPS tell us this.
Or how about just don't drive if you've been drinking?
@@joshdavis3743 Look Josh, if we're going to start injecting common sense and logic into this........
@@joshdavis3743 How about you don't drive...then you never have a cop problem. It may shock you, but drinking and driving is not illegal. Driving IMPAIRED is illegal.
There should be a law against continually clicking your pen in court.
its a trick used by people, its like training a dog
Hey Now -- I am the world's worst offender of that one.🤔
It was the cheap mouse...bc the court won't buy a decent mouse.
An arrest is warranted.
Good Lord, watching that prosecutor try to use Google Earth during the trial was the most cringiest awkwardest pointless things I've ever seen. I can't believe a judge allowed it. Wait of course they did because they have no idea how technology works.
I swear he all but said "I'm moving the cursor here" a couple of times. Facts not withstanding, The DUI Guy is NEVER going to have trouble with any Kentucky prosecutors or police. They just don't have it. This guy got a Bachelor's.....sheesh. Or did the police just help arrange it.
I always find it interesting that your barber or hairdresser (cosmetologist) needs one year of training to be certified, but cops need only weeks to be on the job.
I'm not sure what purpose the system serves if the police are actually expected to amend their reports later. It boggles.
theres like 15 threats for not taking the test but he refers to it as an "offer" these guys are word magicians
DUI guy just out here crushing prosecutors just by reading facts and pointing out errors in the policing lol
GET THE PIGS IN COURT. That's ALL we have to do. NOBODY back down from them. NEVER talk to them. They'll lie in court and once they see your video in combination with the lies, it's done and then you sue them.
Lmao, that prosecutor put a couple more nails in his last redirect coffin.
With the hey we are the Holy Administers of Justice, we would never do anything wrong. comments.
Interesting how this trooper recalls very specific details then magically can’t recall, has very selective memory.
Just one thing that I do not understand. If a witness lies in court, they can be charged with perjury.
Why does this NEVER happen to a police officer who blatantly lies ??
That's assuming that police have credibility to begin with.
This is like a comedian doing a set. He has his whole act fine tuned and ready leading the audience one way letting them think they figured out the punch line right before pulling them a whole different direction and getting a way bigger reaction and laughs.
He was a rookie, he still thinks he should tell the truth, give him a few years practice, he will be testilying without a thought, Takes some cops a few years before they get on board with corruption,
As someone who hasn't had a drop of alcohol in 32 years and hasn't driven since 1997, rhetorically speaking, why do I get so excited when you win these cases?? Whatever the reason may be, you're a real professional and I love these videos!! Saw the livestream the other day, during which you and the former cop were commenting on various videos. It was really entertaining, except for the poor girl who was killed at the beginning. That was horrendous!!
Thanks very much for all of your videos!! 👍 🎯
Have we forgotten about, "The right of the People to be secure in their persons, houses, papers and effects shall not be violated'?
It seems like a majority but not all law enforcement let their ego supercede the constitution.
“I really had no reason to arrest him as there’s zero evidence for his charge of operating a vehicle while under the influence.”
...the DA essentially said. And they say the system is corrupt, oh come now!!!
First question from the DA State your name. I noticed he DID NOT point to his name badge and say it's right here. I wonder why not?
?
I THOUGHT HE SAID HIS NAME WAS " RIGHT HERE " AT THE STOP ? IT'S A HUGE FAMILY OF RIGHT HERE !
@@thomasmills3934 people who film police will often ask the officers that approach them what their name is, and the cops almost always give a sarcastic response by pointing at their name badge and say "it's right here"
😂😂😂
Hilarious! It's right here, your Honor!
The guy refuses to take a road side test or a breathalyzer because it's "he doesn't have to" but is willing to take a blood test which is more accurate and intrusive. The cop doesn't want to give him a blood test because "he doesn't have to" give him the blood test.
the road side test is pointless. if the cop wants to arrest you for DUI, it doesn't matter how good you do on the test, or even if you do it perfectly, he will arrest you for it (it's often done so the cop will have an excuse to arrest you).
he should have agreed for the breath test, if he was in fact clean (and I'm guessing he was, because he wanted a blood test).
good for him that he got out of the dui, kinda strange that the cops didn't come in with any evidence for alcohol.
Never ever take a roadside test....most fail! Insist on a blood test!
That re-direct examination was so freaking petty xD I hate prosecutors almost as much as I hate cops
Absolutely and totally. Neither of them are to be trusted a hundredth of an inch.
Lukapaka...how old are you? You sound like a snot nosed brat..try and live in this world without police and lawyers..or just move to some lawless country. Good luck.
@@kevinsimpson8686 just get out of prison? Yeah blame the other guy. Moron. It's just like saying everyone named Kevin Simpson is an ignorant loser????
@@kevinsimpson8686 🤣 You get your point across absolutely and completely.
they stop you and the more charges they can pile on the better for their career...he had a valid DL and the cop proved it...he wasn't driving on a suspended DL, he just forgot it at home...which almost everyone has done at some point in their lives...shouldn't get a ticket or arrested for that...especially these days when they can prove it in a minute on scene
I also thought you were allowed to produce a valid DL within a certain amount of time in case you forgot it. All they really need is your name and DOB and they can prove in their system that your DL is valid.
These days, prosecutors have a very difficult time getting a jury to convict if the case relies primarily on law enforcement testimony. Even if one were to stipulate that cops are sincere and of good moral character, they demonstrate that they are sloppy in their work and only have a superficial understanding of how the law applies.
We still have too many that Support Blue because they haven't done it to them yet.
@@DanOKC back the blue until it happens to you
The last time I was called for jury duty I was told that the only evidence was police testimony and asked if I could convict on that (or something to that effect). “No”. I was excused.
Great cross. I have tried several DUI cases and many DUI hearings. Good work counsel.
I just wanted to say Larry u r the man I watch all your vids 👊🏻
This cop has likely just learned to pad his police reports, just like the rest learn to do. It is instances like these that lead to shouts of "stop resisting" when you are not, etc.
If no camera, it either didn’t happen or is false.
@@terrybritton1355 that’s why I advocate for always on body cameras.
This cop ego charged the defendant
Yelp, he did not play their game and the cop and prosecutor were pissed.
But the funny part is the cop and prosecutor was done the exact same thing in the driver's place.
How long was he at the lying academy.
So this cop is a liar and a criminal? Id defend myself against this if i lived there
It is 2022 and we still have crappy videos and cameras in these courts
You don't need to and shouldn't answer any questions from an officer on a traffic stop. They are fishing for reasons to arrest you. Why would you help them, especially when you aren't required?
In my experience with LEO'S if they want to arrest you, they are gonna do that regardless if you answer their questions or not. REMAIN SILENT AND RESPECTFUL AND FIGHT IT IN COURT. NEVER INCRIMINATE YOURSELF IF BEING QUESTIONED. THEY ARE NOT YOUR FRIEND EVEN IF YOUR 100% INNOCENT
You are awesome, very tactful as you break these people down. Well done!!!
The best is the closing arguments with groves come off and gentleman manners are abandoned as Larry calls a lying cop, a lying cop, and a corrupt prosecutor, prosecuting a nothing case. Then the prosecutor has to try to convince the jury of he and the lying cops are righteous and honorable men despite what the jury saw them to be.
This police officer told us lies under oath. I believe that he didn't have any remorse or pay for this violation of trust or desertification of his law enforcement standing by his superiors a clear and present danger to our society.
Awesome job. Congratulations to you and to your client!
My sworn testimony today is that I can't say that he was driving carefully because I don't know what was going on in his head. For all I know he was doing everything in his power to drive recklessly, but he might have been so drunk that it was imparing his driving to the point that everything he did was completely safe. *blink blink*
😅🤣😂🤣😅
The DUI Guy has great followers, we all need an organization that we can get together and defend each other from corrupt public servants, One for all and All for one
He paused because he was thinking of what to say to the lying trooper.
Why would you arrest me if you just said you were just trying to check and see if I was under the influence but soon as I refuse all of the test that your trying to get me to take to incriminate me you're going to arrest me what?!?
Usually I only a play a lawyer on Twitter, however after learning the Forman method, I feel prepared to defend DUIs in Kentucky as long as defendants never consent to any tests. My prediction is that Larry Forman will be responsible for Kentucky finally getting around to requiring body cameras so these prosecutors don't have to keep going through this same humiliation time and again, lol.
It's really hard to believe with the huge advancements over the past 20 years in video and audio technology that a government building would have video and audio equipment this bad in 2022. If this were the 90's or early 2000's I would expect it, but there's really no excuse in 2022.
I agree, was thinking the same.
Really my states systems are extremely old our Dept of Labor, DMV, ect are old, we just learned how old after breaches, The 51-year-old mainframe uses F-COBOL, a code that was around before Combined Business-Oriented Language, or COBOL, the language created in 1959 by Grace Murray Hopper, was standardized. Yes you heard that right 51 year old system finally taken out of service as a Dept of Labor mainframe. Because they had a breach of 180,000 people losing bank acct information and social security numbers, our states population is under 650,000 so it definitely covers a large percentage of the population. You'd be surprised how many state controlled branches including the court are just as old and outdated.
Yes, no camera and it is either false or didn’t happen. A police report should be, date, time, GPS location, and see videos. Simple and truthful as long as no editing is allowed.
@@girlinvt Common Business Oriented Language
he drove successfully hahah I cant believe copper said that
I am glad you included the jury verdict. Did they deliberate long?
The time stamp on the video indicated it was about an hour when the judge read the verdict.
I think it's ridiculous that they give a time limit on trying to contact a lawyer. Most lawyers are not going to answer the first time you call if after hours. And of course they don't allow you to receive a call back to speak to your lawyer or if your lawyer were to come down to the jail would they allow him to speak to you. Your rights don't end after 10 min of having representation. This kind of statute should be fought at the highest level of court.
Do they ever “Recall”? Sure as hell seems like there are a lot of “I don’t recall” !!
Almost like politicians when they know they are wrong
@@useridgaf-p6b it’s a way to not commit perjury the legal way. Nobody can really do anything about it when you don’t recall,it’s when you tell a complete lie that you get busted for perjury,and yet cops and politicians lie hourly.
Bravo!!! Cross examination was marvelously done!
So wait, he smelled alcohol on his breath, thought he was impaired, so he... told him to keep driving? Down a street, through a traffic light, into an intersection, around a corner, and into a parking lot? 🤔
As far as taking 30 seconds to open the glove box, Tesla frequently updates the car and changes the location of where certain functions are on the UI. On top of that, it can be configured with a PIN.
One thing I'm wondering, as a lawyer, following a jury trial, are you given the opportunity to ask the jury what exactly they found compelling abou lt your arguments or what facts of the case were essentially slam dunks? That would be interesting to learn after each verdict.
The juries are often instructed that they can talk to the parties with whom they want to but are not required to.
This Po-lice was jealous that this man was driving a Telsa .I had a childhood friend, we grew up together, attended school together , then he became a Po-lice and that was the end of a 25 year friendship, the things he told me they ,the Po-lice did to people wow and he was part of it .he said that they stopped this man with this 2 hundred thousand dollars sports Benz for speeding and the guy said it's only 5 miles over the limit could you give me a break , he said you could smell the leather in this rich man car and I would give him a break I found two other things to ticketed him for. I cut ties with him and never spoke to him in 30 years. Scumbags.
Well done DUI Guy.
Makes me feel bad for the people who cant afford a lawyer. They're just screwed.
what I would say. Q: you refused to road side DUI test, answer yes. Q: why is that? answer : I belive those test are made for you to fail.
Q: how so?, answer I`ve seen alot videos of cops deny those test in same situasions, if the cops who do those test say so. I belive they have more experiense to say so.
I don't refuse. I require payment in advance to do work for strangers. He can find someone else to work for him if he doesn't like the terms.
That would be hearsay evidence, the prosecutor would object, it would be sustained.
@@glee21012 that isn't hearsay. That's him stating facts. He believes something. He believes it because of videos of real events he saw. He believes something.

The only crime committed here is by that court that has 360p video quality.
Great work! Thank you for being the voice of the people who feel have no say👏🏽👏🏽
You are the man ! I don't drink but you are a pit bull in the court room.
A defense Attorney ought to have the Officers take the DUI test in court
"I travel around trowling for cash"
I dont think this guy can even recall his own name
Lying cop....He learned fast.
Sad part is the thugs in blue don't learn. He will be right out there trying it again
If he assumed he was drunk and smelled alcohol on the initial stop why would he have him drive AGAIN to pull into a parking lot?
And this is why you refuse every test offered by police, even when they threaten that by refusing you MAY lose your licence. All the tests are designed to elicit more evidence against you which is why almost every copper, to a man, refuses to participate in any tests. They are not designed to prove your innocence but are to help them build a case against you.
The problem with refusing a blood test is that, not only can you lose your license, but then the cop can get a warrant for a blood draw in a few minutes from a judge. All they have to tell the judge is that they have "probable cause" to believe that you are impaired.
You should definitely refuse all road side tests and not answer any questions!
Love your videos and the work you are doing sir. This channel is a gem.
This lawyer is a beast…I’ll make sure I call you whenever I get in trouble lol
Moral of the story don’t take any tests and always film the police.
Stayed up until 2.50am watching this, couldn't stop watching.
Love your work, but time for sleep.
Cheers and have a great day..
I think the most insane thing about this entire case is the quality of video from the inside of the court room.
Seems that our judicial system today - police officers, city and state attorneys, even judges - are actively and enthusiastically “on the hunt” for supposedly PRESUMED INNOCENT citizens!
Seems to me a better and more faithfully adherent to - if not the letter of the Constitution, then at the least, “spirit” of it - would be for those government agencies and agents to observe the average, hard-working American citizens struggling to make a living with calm and overall “trustful” eyes. It should be well understood that our Founders had VERY LITTLE trust in governments and their agents, which is why they put in place the supreme law of our land, the Constitution and The Bill of Rights!
They knew full well of the ravenous nature of governments and its insatiable hunger it has for its citizens, having recently experienced such tyranny, going so far as to spend the blood of thousands of those same citizens fighting its ambitiously “policing-hungry” evils.
America was birthed for the very purpose of eradicating such hostile degradations and centralized depravity toward regular everyday people, bringing about in their place God-given Liberty and Justice!
In view of such realities and our hard-won history with wildly over-reaching federal, state, and local agents such as police, judges, and prosecutors, I believe the afore mentioned should practice restraint with regard to a voracious and overbearing “drive” to, in want of a better term, “preying upon” the American citizen.
These are the kind of cops we don't need.
I thought it was a complete and skillful defense. DWI/DUI are serious charges against someone. I think sometimes the police make these arrests too routine.
They don't care what happens later. They have to get us in a cage, that's what they breathe for.
Love your videos. So very interesting 🧐🧐🧐. I really love to learn about laws and how our system works. Thank you!!!
Smells like contempt of court by the police...
IF HE THOUGHT HE WAS DRINKING AN DRIVING WHY WOULD HE MAKE HIM DRIVE TO THE PARKING LOT
Bingo. You totally right. If the driver had any accident on the way to the parking lot cop would be liable for it because he let suspected drunk driver drive on public road.
just wondering why when the cop said he refused field sobriety tests, you didn't ask if citizens are required to perform FST's. ?
He did ask. Specifically he asked if they were required. The officer responded that they were voluntary
When I was a Deputy Sheriff years ago, we could administer the field sobriety tests, but KSP had to do the breathalyzer if we weren’t certified.
the citation does not need to be an accurate adaptation of what happened it is an approximation if the prosecution is happy taking a man's livelihood and possibly his home on an approximation, that is totally unacceptable (approximately). The law and pregnancy both deal in facts it is either right wrong she is either pregnant or not she cannot be a little pregnant
Why this cops are not ashamed of themself? How they can sleep at night? Being able to look honest people in their eyes without feeling like shit? Lying, lying, falsifying arrest reports, just making staff up.
