"i have to get the tazer back"
"why"
that is *such* a lawyer question
I know right 😂
Lol I can't believe he asked why 😂
He doesn't want the reason for himself, he wants to highlight it so it's clear to everyone
I was eating and choked when he said why, I'm like WHY DO YOU THINK??
Well he wants to make sure that the jury knows the guard thought he was in danger
I’m glad everyone can see what kind of a psychopath this guy is. He’s acting all innocent in court but in prison he attacks a guard for a situation he created.
cruz has very bad emotional promblems when growing no body help him out whats going threw his mind
@@springstud f all of that
@@springstud 🤡🤡🤡
I would imagine he's "acting all innocent" in court because it's a rare chance at visiting the outside world again, and seeing normal people. Even a violent inmate can suppress their emotions for a taste of a non-prison setting, even if only for a little while. Think about it. Any time they get to wear normal clothes and show up in court, it's almost like a mini vacation.
@@Connection-Lost man stfu ur a weirdo defending a school shooter they should lock u up with him as well
Look how compliant he is once he realised he lost the fight for the taser. This is pure psychopathy, he didn't attack in a fit of rage or mania, this was a calculated attack for the sake of violence, pure and simple.
Great observation!
No. This is rage.
@@klauskeast9475 nah, he's trying to get put in the hole to stay away from the other inmates
This isn't uncommon in a jail. It wouldn't go as far as to say psychopathy.
@@oscarkoop2548 Could be. Not uncommon.
This is why you have to put them to rest. These individuals won't change. What are they waiting for? Waiting till he actually hurts or kills a guard?
I agree he should die but the death penalty system in this country wouldn’t do the situation justice. He’d likely be on death row for a long amount of time living off of taxpayer money and getting treated fairly well. I really wish people like this were taken care of with the cost of a box of .223
He probably was trying to get out of that pod for w.e reason I’m sure it’s inmates in there that want to hurt him
@@adaraholisticdrilmatar2684 good
He doesn't deserve rest tho.that would be to easy.he deserves to be caged like a animal for the rest if his life as he should be
He should have got the death penalty and been in solitary confinement till put to death .
He is not crazy, he’s pretending to be crazy so he can get an “insanity plea”
Exactly what I said and some people are just falling for it!
Makes sense.
So nobody is crazy? listen to you bro...
@@lafrecuencia2627 listen to yourself. I don’t get the point your trying to make
Is that his dad they keep showing, like at 5:36? That guy, whoever he is, seems very off
He hasn’t changed, he’s not sorry, he’s a monster. There is no excuse for what he’s done, and no adoption caused this. He deserves the full sentence of the law, he has NOT changed nor will he ever.
@@realcritical-kr2dd idk why you think your edgy but I recommend you seek help
@@Beth-gq9yj how does his comment equal to him needing help because at this point you legit have no point to make
Don’t really think your comment gonna change anything
@@HydzDaNPC i mean it wouldn’t change anything anyway its a youtube comment section tf 🤦🏾♂️
@@trueeast who said there was a excuse
“He reached for my taser, so I tried to get it back”
“Why?”
🤦♂️
Bro the guard was like wtf do you mean "why"
🇨🇳
lmao was gonna make this comment . WTF you mean why bro.. Its a taser!
You people don't understand how courts work, everything has to be on the record.
the cop was getting whooped at first lmfao
The fact that he assaulted a prison guard and took this guards taser show how dangerous this guy truly is. He’s dangerous even in prison. When he was tased, this guy knew he lost. He fought the prison guard only to stand down when he lost that taser. Cowardly and pathetic.
Not uncommon. He was playing brinksmanship with the guard. He acted out up to the point that he would have gotten taze'd and then submitted. The guard would have gotten in trouble if he tase'd the inmate once he had submitted like that. It's all part of the game.
He wasn't tazed.
This was NOT a prison guard and it was not a prison.
It is utterly alarming that his lone officer had no backup! Like nobody appeared to help him. That is unacceptable. Actually getting tired of this circus.
Imagine if he went up against a full grown man. He is luck that kid is a scrawny rat.....
Jails are infamous for being understaffed, so can’t say I’m surprised.
He's lucky it was a tiny biich that attacked him and not a prison swole inmate.
@@brettstarks1846 That's **ALL** civil service jobs because the rich won't pay taxes, and expect those with barely enough to feed themselves support every and all services (police, fire, jail, prison, roads, ect) that the rich utilize without paying for.
Standard cell block.
I ran cell blocks with up to 200 inmates at a time all by myself for 15 years. I would quickly identify the problems and the allies and if the problems acted up I had the control officer roll the cells of the allies (who did **NOT** want their cell block disrupted or locked down, impacting their 'business' interests) who would quickly quell the problem child.
And if I couldn't roll the allies out, I dealt with Problem on my own - with extreme prejudice.
The fact that nobody came to his aid shows a lack of staffing. This could have gotten so much worse if the poor guard hadn't gain control.
ReAlLy!?!?!
There's normally more guards spread out throughout prisons like this, it's usually one guard per block, and more at security stations, the lobby, walking around the facility, the cafeteria, etc. If the officer did radio for help 2-3 other guards likely would have showed up.
@@pandaman3367 ya, buddy system should be required, it is more than just worth it, it should be required. feels like for every tax dollar meant to fund necessary personnel , we see it going to ultimately line the pockets of politicians. seriously 2 should be required or more period when dealing with unstable people like prisoners. it is simply irresponsible to not have a buddy system in place for these facilities or hazardous environments. honestly it is straight negligent not to do so and anyone who is hurt because of this lack of oversight gets a huge early retirement and those of whom are responsible for the negligence are removed. it is not that much more cost for a much more safe environment.
@@Daytruin yeah, maximum security prisons do have buddy systems from what i've seen, but yeah, we could definitely use another guard or two in the cell block at all times
But think of the profit margins of the prison.
You know he was paying attention during that taser unholster demonstration
He already knew how to do it 🤦
Clearly he took it, the cop even mentioned “he was trying to press the button”
I hope all the people defending him watch this.
He's not some poor, bullied kid. He searches for chaos.
Is he in search for chaos? Remind me where he was put? In heaven according to you?
i agree
@@yousinnedfirst8078what
You can't judge somebody by their prison actions. You shouldn't judge anyone at all
@@yousinnedfirst8078wtf are you talking about
It's amazing how long this one officer had to address the situation by himself with no backup. Absolutely atrocious that he had no backup. he is lucky he is alive
This guy doesn't get enough pay, that I'm sure. The sad fact is that in most scenarios, the violent prisoners far outnumber the guards, who literally put their lives on the line daily just to keep the prisoners from harming themselves or one another. Can't say enough about this man's bravery and professionalism. That's what you call manhandling the situation.
There is definitely people who are "supposed" to be watching the screens in the surveillance room. The c/o did handle it amazingly, he's very professional. He deserves a raise.
There are a lot of witnesses that wish they got this chance to break things down so clearly, rather than steamrolled and then muzzled.
That is just how it is. He might not have pushed the emergency button in his radio in time. Even if you manage to hit the button it just depends how close another officer is to you. They could be there in 30 seconds or they could be there in 2 minutes. I was a correctional officer and it was a hard, and thankless job. I still have nightmares about some of the stuff I had to deal with inside the walls. All said and done he managed to survive and that is a win.
There's always someone that writes "he or she is lucky to be alive." It ain't that serious.
R.i.p to all the kid's who lost their lives in the parkland shooting
Let him pace in his cell, he doesn’t deserve any freedom whatsoever. This is what this society is creating. Sad times
@E 🙄
exactly
yeah, we all know there was no violence or mental illness before "this society" ruined everyhitng
Yup we’ve traded god for money and sodomy sick world we live in.
There should be at least two guards at all times around a violent person like that.
if u pay for it... why waste money? 1 should be enough as long as he is not lazy and sleeping like this one
Derrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
As long he doesn't have weapons he's just a skinny kid in the locker room.
Not a threat especially considering he has no combat training of any kind.
Dude they have a whole building and guns and stuff... They need to stop hiring people who don't wanna endorse the job
@@jjbuschpokemon6846 I would've loved if he attacked me so I can hit him back alot harder.
For anyone saying, “Oh I can’t imagine what’s going through his head” just know that he’s already been exposed for faking insanity during his interrogation. There’s a whole video breaking down his entire interrogation.
Yup, JCS criminal psychology
He attacked the guard because he knows it's more consequences attacking a prisoner.
yeah he is definitely mentally sound. normal people kill a bunch of people all the time
Yes he is obviously completely mentally stable
i’m sorry but anyone that shoots children in a school is insane and has serious mental issues
Why is the guard being question as if he killed the guy?
Maybe he’s the only witness to the assault
The question is very reasonable, and it was the prosecution doing it, so the jury would understand what was going on.
the real questions is where was his back up officers
This kid is just sickening to watch. I can’t take it anymore and I cannot imagine how the families of the victims go through their days knowing he still walks the earth with absolutely no remorse. Disturbing.
Nicolas Cruz should be in an asylum for the criminally insane, not in a facility like this one.
This young man was screwed up since his early childhood and is unable to function normally.
Right!
Total agreement..and people falling over themselves to say " oh but he's not been proved guilty yet" huh?????
The kid is mentally ill he needed help and the system failed him
Yep. a true little psychopath.
This officer is fighting for his life and no one noticed for all that time that seems like forever, until he had to subdue the madman by himself. WHY????
Severely understaffed due to low pay and situations like this where inmates are constantly plotting your demise. Some facilities are staffed at 1/3 of full staffing roster.
IKR? Guard is lucky it was weasely assed little Nicky. What if it had been an actual hardened con who knows how to and enjoys fighting? I imagine the guard figured he had little to fear from Cruz, but what if he had a weapon? He's kinda known for that....
@@psychedforlife7176 Thats BS , Cruz is an exception, they could easily have two Guards present for the small amount of time it takes for him to Exercise , he is then put back in his Cell.
Don’t forget we are talking about a child mass murder. This kind of person is capable of anything therefore there should’ve been multiple guards watching him or lock him down until you do. This kid is completely insane and one guard playing angry birds is watching him? Come on
@@tradeladder146
It's NOT bs, it's a fact.
This guy is an actual monster. He should’ve received the death penalty
don’t give him the death penalty let him suffer for the rest of his pathetic life in prison
right like I don't want to be paying taxes for the government to keep these kind of people alive.they should bring back the electric chair🥰🥰
@@emilianaao they shuld bring back torture
@@JanekWL1 yes!!!
@@emilianaao No.
Imagine what it would be like if your only recreational time for the rest of your life was walking in circles for an hour before going back to a cell 🤣
And during that time the guard says "your shoes are broken, fun times over. Back to your cell"
He did it to himself! He went to prison, not a resort.
@@queenbee3647 I said imagine what it would be like to walk in circles for one hour the rest of your life. What part of that reads like "he doesn't deserve what he gets" to you?
@@justenbenally522 I'm confused how at all queenbees comment translated to her being in disagreement
@@2thumms487 then you're really bad at reading.
Where was this guy's help? The fact that this officer was alone with this guy blows me away.
Does it really blow you away?
same thing I said!!!!!!!!
The close proximately of the single guard with a mass murderer is surprising. This a great risk to the guards safety and better safety protocols should be started.
Either have two guards present or have that psycho exercise in a bigger cage by himself. This was a fight for his life, the guard showed way too much restraint.
@22ks On average there is a 5:1 inmate to staff ratio
Usually its 3 inmates per gaurd, could have ended worse if the rest were out
This officer did an outstanding job. It's not easy to try and reach for your radio or spray while fighting.
I am surprised, from reading these comments, how many people are shocked and disappointed to see officers working alone- when this is very commonplace. This officer was professional and did a great job of getting a high stress situation under control. Nothing but respect from me for him.
Not about respect but the lack of safety
Prisons are short-staffed. Nobody wants to work.
@@easymoneyrad again...that would be Admin's fault not the officer.
@@kathenley2811 the officer never should’ve been sitting down in the first place. Those 2 seconds it took him to get up is a lot of time in a fight. All that could’ve been prevented
@@Jason-bc4qx respectfully, I disagree. If the officer was standing then would it be interpreted that he was in a confrontational stance? There is no way to predict how this could have been prevented. There is only the knowledge and training that these things happen. This officer was keeping an eye on him. The best way for this to have been made better is for better staffing procedures. By this officer testifying on this experience, he is trying to ensure there is documentation on the offender's behavior so that it will be easier to place certain in-custody restrictions on his free time in the future.
Props to the guard, he handled the situation so professionally and also in court how he carried himself. 10/10 sir
I wonder why they let a single security guard watching over a dangerous murderous criminal all by himself! Shouldn’t there be at least two guards watching over a dangerous criminal at all times whenever they are being let out of their cell?
This punk is only dangerous with a gun, his barehand skills are of no real danger to anyone.
Why guard is in court?
Yes indeedy bravo sir
@@grandwonder5858
Jails and prisons in general are dangerously understaffed. Most have over 100 long term vacancies at any point in time.
I worked a level 5 state pen for a time. Some of our shifts overlooking 1100 inmates only had fewer than a dozen officers on duty. Mandatory overtime was insane to the point of turning all of us into semi awake zombies. On the worst nights a single dorm officer would also be the supervisor for an an entire side of the pound. We would have to go dorm to dorm doing security checks all shift long. When that happened we only enforced the most important rules while having to ignore everything else.
The good news is that this little terrorist is going to an even worse camp than I worked in that is just as grossly understaffed. He isn’t going to survive long in a barely supervised gladiator camp.
I feel like this guy is intentionally doing everything he can to get the death penalty so he doesn't have to serve his entire term. I hope his plan doesn't work if that's what he's actually trying to do.
That's what we should give him. If he wants it, send him off to the shadow realm.
If you wanna test out your fun theory, you should apply to be the prison guard who has to watch him every freaking day, I guess that'd be a fun job.
@@JIGWIGPIGthis really is one of those things where I personally don't see a right or wrong answer. On the one hand you can argue death is too easy of a mercy for him, better to let him suffer a painfully mundane existence, isolated from society for everyone's safety. On the other hand, if the death penalty ever has exceptions, this would certainly be a valid one for someone who handed out death and tragedy so freely.
@@LEARNING-67locking him in a cell and throwing away the key so he wouldn't need to be guarded 24/7 is preferable imo. Let him rot and suffer in the existential HeII of isolation.
Soooo a whole life worth of tax payer dollars wasted to keep him alive ?
death is not really justice i want Tor_ure for these evil criminals. but that will never happen sadly
I have never thought I would say this about anyone, but I welcome the day that we all hear that that murderer was taken out in prison for what he did. He is not a sick or mentally broken loner; he is pure evil, PERIOD.
At any rate, @anishkrishna8255, that makes at least two of us! He'll get what's coming to him, guaranteed!
evil itself is illness. Satan is sick, wealth comes from God, not from evil.
pure evil? he just some pathetic loser
This is a discussion about intelligence not your bible thumper quotes. Be gone 0 intelligence man!@@yousinnedfirst8078
VERY PROFESSIONAL GUARD. He didn't get angry or try to take revenge. He just did his job, and very well at that.
A fine example of use of force. He escalated his force only when necessary and immediately reduced his force based on the aggressor's actions as he handcuffed Cruz. Notably, he didn't take any cheap shots after he was cuffed. Excellent training material for others around the country to see.
Well, the guard knows how high profile this dude is, and he knows he himself is on camera. Believe me, Cruze is not going to have a good time in jail.
*CORRECTIONAL OFFICER
@@Riaa666 *Guard
Not Jail guard! Corrections officer!
This dude is literally psychotic. Kudos to this officer.
Too bad it wasnt any audio to the video
He is literally not psychotic. He doesn’t have psychosis.
@@larazanz bro its whatever he still a crazy mf
like to see him be psychotic to anyone that can fight. This little weasel will be dead.
I think you mean that *in your opinion* , he is a psychopath. Or that he suffers from antisocial personality disorder, with psychopathic traits.
It's interesting seeing how those "demons" he spoke so frantically about are still haunting him. What a joke.
The guy in the suit was (rightfully) in awe at this officer lol. I feel him.
Such a waste of taxpayers money. If you know without doubt somebody committed a heinous crime like he did why go through trial and let somebody like this continue to waste oxygen and food? The fact that him living out the rest of his life in prison is on the table is disgusting to me.
I really, really hope he gets the DP
@@sandhanitizer15 I feel the same way
Because there have been many cases where people "knew without a doubt" but were in fact wrong. He's a POS but the justice system is important regardless.
@@baxterandcotton That and the fact many of these killers want the death penalty because they know their life is effectively over. Personally I'd rather they were punished. People say the death penalty is a detrrent but then I wonder why countries with the death penalty like Russia and most of South America and Africa have the highest crime levels while countries with no death penalty like most of western and northern Europe has vey low crime levels. Anyone who goes on a mass shooting wants to die, they don't want to spend 60 years in prison.
He's a POS but everyone deserves a right to trial
OMG!!!!! This is completely disturbing that this kid will not stop hurting people NO MATTER WHAT !!!
Put him in general population and then see who gets hurt.
There is something seriously wrong with our system if they are more worried about protecting the coward killer than the victims and their families.
I mean he's in prison now so it's just business as usual.
@@sozoxd3754 in pc I hardly call this prison the 23/24 could be long for some but for me it’s just a normal day. Real prison (gen pop) you can get stab for a bag of Ramon it’s the real jungle
Death. Death can stop it from hurting people.
This is what happens when you don’t deliver a capital punishment to a serial killer. An officer who was lucky to be alive, has to come before the court and defend himself, along with his life previously. Pathetic.
He was NOT a serial killer.
Even then, most live on death row for over 10-20 or more years before being executed
this guard did a really good job : being attacked and reacting with no violence in return, only the necessary force...
Well done to Sgt. Raymond Beltran for gaining control of a life threatening situation. He showed incredible restraint after being attacked.
Absolutely, believable restraint. i would have beaten the SOB to a pulp for attacking me.
For real I would've stepped on his throat 70 times
Perfectly said Harry.
He should’ve never lost control.
Death penalty is for monsters
I am a retired correctional Lieutenant, you NEVER sit when an inmate is walking near you. You are at a disadvantage when attacked as shown in this video.
Not only that but why would you put your head down as you’re being rushed🤦🏻♂️
choke to death with the entire america :)
Glad you said that. Because that’s exactly what I was thinking. Why tf would you be sitting down when an inmate is pacing around you? You’re at a clear disadvantage if anything pops off. Typical lazy American cop.
They always do though
Much respect to you and the others in your profession. The stress and physical demands are more than most people can handle. Every second of every day you have animals playing mind games with you and at any given moment anyone of the animals could try to end you. They don't pay you enough to do this important job that few can do and most don't want to. I worked with a guy who worked for 20 years in one of America's most dangerous pens. After the third time that he narrowly escaped with his |ife, he took early retirement. The many accounts of his career in the pen were shocking to many. His strong will and kindness were all that saved him.
And still didn’t get the death penalty. It’s really amazing what people can get away with.
Eh, let him suffer. Bring back torture
@@ElixerS5No, that violates the 8th amendment.
He didn’t get away with it, he’s locked up for the rest of his life
i love how in court you have to explain the same thing a hundred times.
And, you have to explain the same thing a hundred times in court.
Court lawyers and suits are basically just angry idiots. Barely even human.
I like how they are asking him as if they have never heard of a taser before
It's crazy how the same thing needs to be explained 100 times in court
America
Great job on the officer very well spoken and detailed the experience very professionally
Guard: at this point, I am trying to get my taser back
Lawyer: Why?
This is a circus, there should be a faster way to deal with individuals like him. Wasting court time and tax payers money. Just ridiculous.

As a corrections officer for 13 years I can honestly say that both the way the officer conducted himself and the lack of response from there rest of the prison are both very very concerning.
What did the officer do wrong?
@Anthony Rubio Two very, very, different situations
Florida didn't do too well with Epstein either
Officers's conduct !!!! You have to be kidding.
@@alekhinesgun9997 his situational awareness is very poor. You should never be seated in close proximity to prisoners even if it’s just one.
As soon as the prisoner stops walking everything about him screams assaultive behaviour (body language, stance, what he’s doing with his hands) yet the officer remains seated, he should have been on his feet instantly.
During the fight he gets the prisoner on his back and has a clear opportunity to mount him but instead comes around the side which is an extremely weak position to try and hold someone from, it worked but purely by luck rather than good practice.
“I had to get the taser back”
The judge: “why” 💀
It wasn’t the judge.
How in the world was he given an opportunity to attack the guard... horrible criminal justice system.
Of course after this show of unprecedented and unusual professionalism within the jail system and you still came to this conclusion. You are clinically brain dead
Even worse when you realize a jury saw this and still did not give IT, the death penalty IT deserved.
All these questions are pointless. We all know what he's done and see with our own eyes how violent he still is now in prison towards guards. This is despicable
Looks like he wants to be executed by his behavior. He doesn't care about anyone. Just end this already
@Tiny Princess for god sake. People like you are so irritating. You know what she means. Jail. Hardly worth splitting hairs over ffs
This happened 4 years ago.
@Jessica Brennan I understand what you're saying, but there has to be due process and a fair trial under the rule of law, even pieces of human garbage like him are entitled to that. The victims deserve the dignity of things being done properly. Having said that though, I wouldn't feel in anyway uncomfortable about him being slowly torn to pieces by dogs after the guilty verdict
He’s actually very afraid of being executed. Cruz attempted to get the death penalty removed through a plea bargain that was denied.
@@silacka3114 I wasn't aware it was 4 years ago but regardless. He needs to be wiped off earth. It just makes me sick seeing him sitting there while all those kids are dead and the victims who didn't die are having to go through this. I'm sure some want to go against this monster but it doesn't make it any less traumatic. Just seeing this video infuriates me
Nikolas Cruz has nothing to lose, that makes him ultra dangerous. There should never be just one guard with him and he should be put in solitary confinement while he's on trial. It's unbelievable that no one was alerted to all of this going on, clearly Cruz is not being treated like a murderer, they're not taking this guy seriously.
He is in solitary confinement. He only gets to “exercise” 1 hour or less a day.
That is solitaire confinement… otherwise you would see 50 people walking around
There's no such thing as solitary confinement anymore. Thank your bleeding heart reforms for that.
Exactly.
He is forced to play solitaire all day and that is torture
5:36 we can't make a MEME out of this already? Come on people.

This corrections officer shouldn't have been working alone. No corrections officers should be working alone.
Thank God the officer is OK.
This video absolutely proves this confessed killer should be given the death penalty. The officer was looking out for the killer's safety, and he gets attacked.
Ok. So what's the solution if you can't find enough staff? Let all of the inmates out?

Why aren't school shooters executed on the spot? A school shooter is standing over the bodies of his victims, is there ANY doubt that he's GUILTY? What do we need a trial for? What, is it because we want to "understand"? All these trials, did anything useful come out of them, ever? There is nothing to understand. Justice is what victims and their families need.

*"You'll be passed around like an inanimate object. Your protection will be paid for by your commissary and probably with your body." - Michael S.*

Omg, I'm so glad I don't have to spend any time at all around people like that, well, monster. I'm sure he'll never change
My respects to this correctional officer. He had to keep watch on this psychopath and could've lost his life. I'm glad he is safe. Job well done.
I agree whole heartedly.
Job well done??? Maybe for staying in a fight that could have been easily avoided and or stopped. a complete sitting duck...probably kept the same routine every shift....lack of manpower and burnout I am sure...but for the love to sit down and watch a murderer doing hot laps while you are completely shut off making yourself a sitting duck and easy target...just took him back to corrections training 101...he should be thankful he is okay, alive and no doubt his ego is bruised.

@@merericaac unfortunately it does every single day…he was a very lucky officer. He wont do that again, I can promise you that. 🤷🏼♀️

Why is a guard put in the position of being one on one with an inmate?!
Guards are usually pitted 1 or 2 vs 20 or more
Literally happens all the time with suicidal, high risk, or high profile inmates.
Because it's jail
Cause Cruz weighs like 90 pounds
If you have any more "intelligent" questions you can put them in a binder and sell them on Ebay as a collection.
That doesn't look like exercising it looks like he's pumping himself up to attack someone
Look how he is pacing. He has a lot of anger in him. He is nuts. Even if he is on the spectrum, he should know right from wrong.
He's not on the spectrum, He has fetal alcohol syndrome
I cant tell if that grey haired man is laughing,crying,smiling or frowning every time he’s shown on camera
He looks like Jeff Dunhams puppet
He is a wimp
Who is he and why do they keep showing him? Is he the father of a victim?
He is the father of one of the victims
That one weird lookin creature
As a former correctional officer I can tell you that it is very common to work alone. Even if you hit the emergency button on your radio it can still take minutes before backup arrives. Also, fights in prison are not the same as on the streets. A person attacking an officer has only a few possible intentions. They might be a "check in" (trying to get sent to solitary or just off a specific unit) they will most likely hit you once or push you than immediately cuff up. Or they want to hurt you bad, or kill you. If you have never been in a fistfight with your life on the line it is hard to understand what happens. All in all this officer did a good job, there were a few things he could have done better, but that is something you think about after the fact. Correctional officers have a very hard and dangerous job. The coward on trial here is nothing compared to some of the people who they deal with on a daily basis. 90% of street cops would quit within a few months if they had to work in a prison. All I had was a radio, pepper spray, and my own hands while I was often alone with almost 200 inmates.
: I edited the comment to fix a mistake that was causing confusion. Replaced the word formal with former.
Jesus Christ. Glad you are okay man!
It’s not an easy job but I admire you for what you do.
@@zenamariex I appreciate it, but I do not work for the department of corrections anymore. I meant to say former correctional officer. I work in the industrial/technical rescue field now. Confined space, high angle, water, stuff like that. Working for the department of corrections was not very rewarding, and was causing problems with my family life. I was worried that if I stayed I would just become a cold, bitter, alcoholic with anger issues. Our prison system is completely messed up and it turns people who simply made a mistake and got in trouble with the law into hardened criminals. The idea is rehabilitation, but that's not what happens.
Everything you said is correct. I too worked in corrections, alone in a unit with 160 male penitentiary inmates and I’m a woman. The threat to correctional officer is an everyday thing. It’s dangerous. We didn’t have tasers, weapons or pepper spray…just a body alarm. You fight or talk your way out of a confrontation.
I’m a prison officer in the uk, I don’t even have pepper spray or cuffs. Stay safe man
Cross examining the guard on how the taser works against this POS is the definition of stupidity in a courtroom.
Not a psychopath but a sociopath
That guard handled that with amazing efficiency. His life was literally in danger.
Efficiency? Lmao clown. He did horrible. He sat there while the guy raged out and flicked him off instead of standing up and preparing his taser immediately. As soon as Cruz stopped walking a good cop would’ve identified a huge threat. When the wrestling began the cop performed pathetically too. He looked horrible and weak and was lucky the parkland shooter is a puny little weakling himself. The officer proceeds to conduct one of the most laughably inefficient takedowns in history and loses his taser in the process for a brief moment
Nothing about that was efficient fool it was laughable
Unlike him, the guard showed mercy. He fought someone who had training, not an unarmed kid, and he didn't have his assault rifle, surprise, surprise, he got owned.
@John OK, first round goes to the guards, now I'm waiting for the no rules cage match with the prisoners.
3:30 look how STRONG that "kid" is! holy crap. The guard looks big, but this monster shoves him around like it is nothing. Some other comments here complain that inmates should not be called "animals", that it's our thinking that makes them behave that way... well case in point: this piece of work here attacked despite being treated VERY respectfully.
I believe a guard should be allowed to kill an attacker on the spot. Why aren't school shooter executed on the spot, anyway? A school shooter is standing over the bodies of his victims; clearly he's GUILTY, no reasonable doubt, not any doubt: so what do we need a trial for?
Guards should use taser once he put finger on him
such monsters dont deserve anything but straight getting death penalty
hopefully the guard recovers fast and completly in any way from the attack
As a wrestler the guard has good wrestling and control
One officer on his own, with no chance of calling for help in life threatening situations, is disgraceful. Why were cameras not being watched, and why was his backup so long, and so far away!!!😡😡
What backup ? They left him to fend on his own.
More guards cuts profits. Make no mistake, it's always about money
The real problem here is that we are hiring guards that cannot defend themselves from 130 pound, 5'7 kids.
@@h.a.l.3980 facts
@@katiekane5247 a lot of people don’t get how America, and a lot of countries really work. They don’t understand that commerce, numbers and profitability is always the bottom line. From our medical system, all the way to the legal and punitive systems. You hit it right on the head.
GAURD: " at this point I have to get the taser back"
LAWYER: "why?"
That guys face right after he says that 😂
5:34 That’s infuriating, “Why?”, *Why the fck do you THINK he should grab his taser back from the criminal!?*
This is just laughable . What even is this “case” ? Why is the guard having to explain clear justifiable actions. My lord
because lawyers exist
Lawyers can't accept this man killed tons of people
Because in our country due process is a two way sword it's ugly but it's the best we have right now...
… it’s so people can’t interpret what he’s saying or misunderstand the functionality of the tazer, most people are brain dead so you can’t assume they can make a proper assumption of the situation
kind of like the inaccurate assumptions you fools are making 😅
I think calling him Mr Cruz gives him way more respect than he deserves
Right! More like “This POS”
you deserve no respect. he deserves real respect its just you wouldnt understand a real Man🤦🏿♂️💯💁🏿♂️🔥
@@AverageHvac-rMillionaire - If your example of a "real man" is that whiny pnssy Nikolas Cruz, then you don't understand a real man either.
Imagine being the cop who got beat up by a kid
*Damien
“He got the taser and i had to get my taser back…’Why?!’” Bro really?
Sometimes it is asked because explanation needed for everyone to hear that’s why they do ask these simple questions may not make sense however in wider spectrum it does.
Officers should never be alone in a unit with these types of prisoners.
He is responsible for 17 dead, it bothered him so much he went to McDonald's immediately after murdering 17. Life isnt going to change him ever. He will just continue
Agree. Going to McDonalds to eat doesn't show a lot of non-psychopathy about this guy. Pretty chilling and callous.
@@catherinewylie6959 How do you rehabilitate this guy?
Jail is too nice of a place for him.
The guy asking questions seriously asked..."Why would you need to get the taser back?"
It’s for legal record. Must be extremely thorough.
So other people can hear it too
My thoughts exactly. It's like it's pure common sense.
It's not " why in the world would you even need the taser back?" It's " please explain to the court why it's important to need to get the taser back?" You read the question wrong. We're in court and he's a witness to the prosecution, not an adversarial witness
@@openlybookish It's a trial though. In court, you construct a chain of logic.
Too bad police officers can’t all be clear , precise and as professional as this guard.
Well this guard did nothing wornf and has nothing to hide. Sadly, plenty out there have plenty to hide...
17 People dead and now he gets all this attention. Why was the guard alone with him? Surely it should be a minimum of 2 staff given his record of violence and aggression.
It’s scary to see how dumbfounded some are in the court audience. People need to have more situational awareness and know the capability of those who might do harm in this world. This country needs to realize you are your own first responder. Always take measures to keep yourself and loved ones safe.
Yeah that's the most shocking thing in this video is the wide mouthed audience who just are shocked at how violent criminals behave. This is actually a very tame attack, because he's a scrawny kid. I'm happy people have been sheltered from violence but you gotta educate yourself before it surprises you one day
are they overacting in hopes of being on tv? I didn't know why they kept showing that couple unless it's his parents, but they dont appear to be in the same genepool
@@Haddley333 i was wondering who those two people were as well, especially the man with the ever changing facial expressions
That dude has been so expressive thru out this trial. After the initial attack, when it transitions to this man, you can see he was smiling (not at the attack itself, but when the guard is punching Cruz). Needs to better control that, bc the camera is fully on him at all times it seems..(which I don’t think these cameras should be, let these victims families have a lil privacy here to continue to mourn, especially having to hear such horrific detail over and over throughout this entire thing..)
@@sns22895 i think he cared more about being on camera than anything, as he keeps glimpsing at it, fixing his hair, overly expressed, etc.
Imagine being a prison guard and being attacked by a psychopath who is trying to take away your weapon and the entire court proceeding regarding the attack is curiosity about how a taser works.
It's to prove the guard is competent
@@Ifoundmyoldacc acting or not he’s still crazy Period
@@ceoatcrystalsoft4942 there's no doubt in my mind that he is competent. He just got surprised attacked by psycho boy in the beginning.
Attacking a prison/corrections officer is never a good idea. They hold all the cards... And pepper spray
Why would Nicholas Cruz attack a prison guard when he can’t escape?
"I have to get the tazer back."
"Why?"
"Well, since my earliest childhood, I always was very passionate about not getting tazed."
"Why?"
Tazer go bzz
I was so confused when he asked why. LIKE HUHHHH.
They have to explain this to the jury, victims, etc 😂 for the record
I hate when these shooters are taken alive. Everyone has to put up with their bullsh*t. This guy has pleaded guilty. Enough already.
I think they should be tortured death is too easy
I don't. I want them bashed by real men every day. Death is to easy.
@Paul they do it so they can interrogate them
Shout out to the correctional officer for maintaining his professionalism. Even after being attacked punched in the face and having to wrestle on the ground as soon as Nicholas complied he stopped using Force. I would say 90% of other officers in his position would have not been able to control themselves and would have hit him a few more times or maybe even seriously injured him. But this officer kept his cool and only use the minimum amount of physical force needed to make him comply.he should definitely commended for that and I think you should be a supervisor. training officers on how to do this part of the job. I haven't had many positive interactions with law enforcement in my life but I know a good man when I see one. Respect bro
90%?? they are dealing with criminals first of all. you can see endless videos of people "stop attacking" just to fool the cop and get in another attack.
Just Watching this video makes me want to beat him
As a correctional officer myself we deal with this type of stuff everyday, literally having moments exactly like this probably once a month, so I agree with you he did an awesome job but don’t say 90% of people wouldn’t have done that because me and all my co-workers do it everyday, don’t talk numbers if you don’t know the community you’re talking about
The officer made excellent calls. Just curious if tasing him to incapacitate him from a 2nd attempt until backup arrived be considered excessive force?
Bro jail and prison are like that. When I was in Wake County jail for 43 days on 2014, it was one correctional officer to 65 inmates in a pod. If something went down, SRT: Special Response Team would've been in the pod within 30 seconds to a minute at most. It's sad but that's the way it is. If a CO was cool to us inmates and polite then we would most likely protect that CO until help arrived from a rogue inmate. It's all about respect in jail and prison.
The bjj skills from the jail gard 👌🏻
"at this point I had to get the taser back"
"Why?" Is he for f*cking real.... I WONDER WHY!!??
Wait, a mass murderer is just walking freely in the general area. Shouldn't he be locked in isolation, with a straitjacket, shackled to the floor. 🤨
No, they do that to shoplifters
That's sick America. Why this don't hepen in Europe? Because you are giving him popularity
@@JaJa-12345 Florida State law requires this all be public. They have a "sunshine law" because they had/have pretty bad corruption issues. And to OP, this is his daily exercise, he's alone because he's been segregated.
As terrible as he is he is still human and needs to be treated like one. That doesn't mean he gets privilege just human rights. If you were locked up you would want the same.
It's actually good that he's in Gen Pop, when the inmates find out that he murdered a bunch of kids, they'll brutally execute him
I can’t understand: NOBODY IS WATCHING THE CAMERAS AT ALL TIMES? Nobody came to this officer’s rescue???? Unbelievable 😡
Maybe nobody likes him at work.
He had an opportunity to get his hands on this guy, millions of people would pay a fortune for that chance.
Guard reverses, gains side control, beautifully.
Good job teaching a phsyco how to get the taser out of the holster quicker next time. He was definitely paying attention.
exactly what i was thinking, like wtf?
Exactly
He gon do it again
He ain’t a “psycho”, he was feigning insanity
@@BetelgeuseBetelgeuseBetelgeuse well a psychopath isn't someone who is insane.
Man that officer showed alot of restraint.
Dude I would’ve went for the eyes and nuts lmao if I was the guard
@@BlarginBro I don’t know if he could have. He was in danger of getting reversed or him getting the taser from him
I can’t tell if he’s expressing restraint or not. I can’t hear anything in the prison video.
I can’t tell if the guard is instigating or not, all we have is his testimony
you can see the expression on Max's face.. this totally validates every thing that he said about cruz being a monster
