There was that one man who was in prison for 17 years despite there being DNA evidence proving his innocence. He was kept inside because he refused to say he was innocent. He was eventually released this year I found out this year that they are awarded compensation in cases like this but out of that compensation they are made to pay for their keep. They get compensation because it's recognised that they were wrongfully imprisoned but have to pay rent to their captors. Wtf

Bro you and JCS are completely skipping over the racial factor at play. "Despite the suspect being described as a short white man" and while Mr. Dickson did not know that, he understood that he was a black man under control of police who were up to some bullshit. I've been in that situation a few times myself, I'm queer and white and it was in a very conservative town, and eventually you get an instinct for detecting bullshit. Much like the analysis of hindsight, you learn to identify certain behaviors that can only be a result of some bullshit going on. In this case, yes we can directly point to the detective ignoring the clear difference between the description of the perpetrator and the person sitting in the interrogation room. In that situation you don't know what's going on and you know that, so the most reasonable thing to do is be polite as possible while getting information and holding your ground.
@@misteral9045As a Black woman, I really appreciate you bringing up the racial factor here!! Thank-you for caring enough and being educated enough to speak on it! I'm so sorry you've been judged bc of your identity as well 💔
I was falsely accused of armed robbery when I was 18 years old and about to go into the military. The detective tried all kind of intimidation tactics to illicit a confession from me and said he had my fingerprints and video evidence. Fast forward to my court date, it ended up being a completely different guy who had the exact same name as me and lived in the same town. He was positively identified by his fingerprints and I was free to go. That took almost an entire year of my life from me.
They don't care about that the way you think they do so give it a break. They just want to bust somebody, anybody, and if you polite nice dude like this guy it makes their evening that much more pleasant. Bigger the bust the bigger the boost but any bust will suffice.
best part is when the police tell your entire family you are guilty and you have to disown your entire moms side of the family after they throw you under the bus.
Detectives don't actually give a rats ass if they get the right person they just need to get *someone* the dude even says in this video getting confessions without evidence is a badge of honor and gets them promotions
All they care is the case closure and the next promotion... or do you think he is the first innocent person in jail? Some will have to fight 30 or 40 years until they get justice, other will die in the process without the truth coming out at all. Cops are not good people, they don't care about you at all. It's a business
One thing to remember: the police are legally allowed to lie to you about supposed evidence they have against you in order to try and coerce a confession out of you. So if you know you’re innocent without a doubt, *DO NOT TALK TO THE POLICE AND REQUEST YOUR LAWYER IMMEDIATELY.*
how does that make sense tho? if u know ur innocent without a doubt u should just give them all the information u can so they realise it's not you they are looking for..? what do you think could that do bad for u in that moment?
@@crypton1782because police sometimes will try to get a confession out of you or make you look bad because it can lead to a promotion and it’s not always clear if the person you are talking to has your best wishes in mind or if they are looking to just put you in cuffs and climb the ladder, so it’s just better to play if safe if you’re completely innocent
They dont even hear that.. they dont care at all.. you and me find this important but cops dont... they just see a guilty person and want a confession..
That means nothing. You should watch the interrogations of the pedophiles caught in the old To Catch a Predator stings. Almost all of the mask if they should be calling their work the next day to let them know they won't be in. They all expect a little slap on the wrist and to be released that night ,despite driving to a minor's house to have sex with them.
One comment said he got accused of armed robbery at 18 right before he was abt to join the military, fingerprints of the real guy finally proved his innocence. It took away a year of his life.
"demoted and suspended without pay" yeah sorry, thats not good enough, not even close. They picked a man up off the street that didn't even remotely resemble the suspect, told him his guilt wasn't in question in an attempt to get a confession, threw him in prison for three days, and couldn't even be bothered to check his alibi in the meantime. At that point the "detective" has proven himself not only to be a useless investigator, but also a liability to the functioning of a criminal justice system. They should be permanently blackballed from any position at any police station or court anywhere. I know there are a lot of cops who have done a lot worse, but honestly our standards for law enforcement are far far too low, even something like this cannot stand
idk it's bad but 3 days of jail time isn't the end of the world. If this works 90% of the time to get an actual confession from a real criminal, then maybe it's more useful than not doing it. Michael was compensated massively for this and the detective was demoted and suspended without pay. It'll teach him to get his act straight.
@@thelastvbuck You sound like you'd back the blue until it happens to you. 3 days of jail could mean losing your job, your house, your car, your wife & kids, but surely it isn't the end of the world, right?
@@fftunes That's very extreme. Provided you can make phone calls, all that shouldn't happen. If some of that really did happen, then as we saw, he can sue for that money back. For the record it was 100% some bad police work, but being demoted and suspended without pay is arguably pretty bad. You could lose your job, your house, your car, your wife and kids, but that would be justified for accidentally putting someone in jail for 3 days?
This happened to me. Interrogator claimed they got me on video stealing what I was accused of. I told him “if you had video, you would know I didn’t do it.” Had a few panic attacks since then, of being falsely accused. It happened literally a month after my wife and I welcomed our son into the world.
*Don't trust cops, get a lawyer!* I've been in this situation before. Not only is being wrongfully accused stressful and depressing, what I was suspected of is vile and egregious compounding the emotions that comes with it. Not only that, but I'm from a small town and the 2 detectives who questioned me while 15 other cops searched my house, one was my former neighbor for years whom I've had beers with and the other was literally my childhood best friend that I had known for 40 years at this point. Still they lied and tried tripping me up just to get a confession.
Wish I knew who he was so I could send him a card. Luckily I’ve never had this happen legally, but in my engineering career, coworkers’ ethics has been a huge issue for me. It’s like people are happily and willingly delusional because it “gets the job done”
Yeah this happens way too often. There was another man who tried to turn his life around and started a family only to be wrongfully accused of murder and sentenced to life in prison.

I've been wrongfully accused by my teachers many, many times during my teenage years. Whenever some shit went down in my shool, I was the first to be looked at, which was really annoying, because I had never done any of the things they accused me of. My parents weren't really helpful, as most of the times, they seemed to believe my teachers rather than me. Then I went into reoccuring depressive episodes because of all that stress, which didn't help either. Being really pale and having racoon eyes (because of the depressions, lack of sleep, etc.) didn't help at all. Those mofos started rumors about me taking and selling drugs, which was BS as well. Nobody helped me, nobody sided with me and this went on and on until I finished school. It took a massive impact on me, because eversince then I am scared of getting falsely accused of something really bad, despite me being a perfectly law abiding citizen. Damn....if I'd ever get falsely accused of f.e. murder or rape or something like that and they check my internet history, I am SO fucked, because of all the true crime stuff I watch.

That's why you can't lie to suspects in many western countries. Even Canada has moved away for the Reid technique because it's not a good tool to determine guilt.
Sheer incompetence. The officers who made the arrest were not at fault. But for the detective to not check against the 911 description is dereliction of duty, with severe consequences for an innocent citizen.

I lived in the U.S. for a few and be falsely accused of something was my biggest nightmare. When I got pulled over for the first time for "following too close" (consequence of being nervous for having a cop follow me too close for ten minutes), I freaked out and knew I couldn't take more risks.

The moment that occurs though, they need to leave the force because they can no longer hold themselves as the impartial bodies that their work _requires_ them to be.
I was arrested and charged with 1st degree murder. The victim came and testified he wasn't dead but his testimony wasn't allowed in court because the victim cannot testify on the defendants behalf. It didn't take 2 years but I was in jail in the maximum security ward with murderers and rapist for almost 6 months before I was released with no charges pressed only after I signed away my rights to sue the state for wrongful imprisonment.
What amazes me is if a person has social anxiety or something similar then they can be assumed guilty by interrogators because of their pose and most likely lack of eye contact
Once I was made believe that I committed a crime that I never did. I was an innocent 18 year old foreign student and the police lied into my face saying that they saw me on the camera hitting and kicking their fellow policemen. They were so fierce that I started to doubt my own memory and ended up signing a paper saying that I agree with their allegations. I think that all policemen that manipulate people like this should be investigated, I can't believe how common this unethical practice is and how normal this is to people who work in law enforcement.

At a time in my younger day's, some 50 year's ago. I happened to look simular to someone wanted by the police, for apparently nothing but questioning. In regards to a crime that though he wasn't directly envolved in, believed he may have some knowledge about. I was maranded properly, and not just detained but arrested, meaning I was photographed, finger printed and put in a cell with other's who were actaull criminal's. It took two day's for them to determine, oop's, wrong guy, and simply stated "SORRY" and allowed me to leave. Which I did post haste. However, because I had been in my auto, they the police had it towed from the area and impounded it. I now have a record on file with my finger print's, photo, and was forced to pay the tow charge and the impound fee. And also had to face my boss for not reporting for work in any way shape or form for two days. This could have been a longer story, becasue it actually doesn't include some of the various thing's I viewed and almost had to endure myself while in the cell with other's who had actaully commited crimes. All were repeat offender's. But yes, today one is guilty until one has either proved them selves, or after a periud of time, the police somehow determine your not.
Yep, at that point any cop with an ounce of intelligence would know an innocent man, this guy moved to the area, seen a few cop movies & wanted to climb the ladder ... but, slid further down & now thousands upon thousands will see the incompetent fuck on youtube .. karma!
Can somebody actually be this dumb? It's really hard to believe these idiots are given guns to enforce laws that they just don't have the mental capacity to understand.
Arrogant detective: "You're not in a enviable position" Ends up getting sued, suspended, demoted and has to pay damages.... That's not an enviable position either, buddy.

@@aidanleung1298 Very easy, claiming you have video evidence or witness testimony when you don't have such, or any evidence at all for that matter, yet still try to blatantly coerce a confession. Even when directly being called out for his bluff maintained that he had this evidence. There is a point where testing to see if someone would crack, becomes blatant vindictiveness, which is what this officer displayed
These psych observations are fascinating. I do the eye contact one often and didn't even realize what it meant/how its perceived until now. Ill be on the lookout now for other "Non-verbal challenges".
Unfortunately not everyone will show confidence when innocent. Some people are 'soft'. Messed up and yet we're still advancing in being a just world compared to years before.
It was 2003 and the police officer was plainly from the UK. At that time and before it, the UK was rife with racial prejudice. A government initiated inquiry, headed by Sir William MacPherson, proved this to be the case (c.f. the MacPherson Report). This officer was plainly operating on the trusty principle of black = guilty.
@TheBull916 The white guy knew the owner of the house, had been in prison for the same crime, and he was (wrongly) identified by a witness. Though he was wrongly accused, there were reasons he was handcuffed and questioned. As for the black guy in Canada, where was utterly no reason to hold him...except he is black.
I saw a video essay/documentary on UA-cam about something like this about a little girl who went missing as a kid, and they went the whole video showing us evidence and it seemed like this one guy was the culprit, it ended with a plot twist, he was proved innocent, they ended saying something like how you shouldn’t make quick judgements based on evidence that may be biased or something like that, it was great but I can’t find it anymore
"Voiced his innocence but didn't resist the arrest" Just like how he supposed to do! Never, ever and ever resist your arrest! Especially if you're innocent!
The officer got so excited about finally using the interrogation techniques he learned at the academy, that he forgot to check the most important part of an investigation: the evidence.
@@juliusperseus8612 Jokes on him, if you watched the whole video, he got demoted and suspended for his lack of caring. The evidence he claimed to have "seen" was bullshit too, defenitely thought he'd get the job done quick, get his pay and ruin someone's life.
I have had 3 incidents where the police either falsely blamed me for a crime I didn't commit or where involved in the crime themselves and tried to implicate I had something to do with it. One of those found me in an interrogation room where they accused me of public urination. I found it an odd charge especially if you're trying to set someone up. They eventually told me if I admitted to it I would just receive a fine and they'd let me go, and if I didn't they would jail me. Being that I had a job and kids to get home to I gave them a false confession as they asked for. A few days later I got a letter in the mail saying the charges were dismissed. None of it made any sense. Another situation involved my then pregnant wife and I randomly getting robbed at gunpoint at home early in the morning. The guy left with $80. He kept asking where the drugs were which didn't exist. I always thought it was weird that they would choose our apartment and think we had drugs. Maybe a month later I was approached by detective who asked why I never retaliated against the guy who robbed me. I asked her how I would even know where to begin and then she said his name was Steven Wright from Chicago and if I asked around I could find him easily. That he lives in my neighborhood. There was this crazy smirk she made and the way she kept talking made me think she wanted me to kill this man. I was floored, confused and didn't how to respond. It was a really weird dream like moment asking myself, 'wtf is this?'. This also was around the time these two officers were going around and robbing drug dealers as well. And most everyone knew their names and yet they were never arrested and nothing was printed in the paper about it. There was no way the police didn't know about it. Realizing how corrupted the police were, ever since then I try to stay out of sight and always make sure I have an alibi, witnesses, cameras, phone location on, etc. They will just use innocent people to do their dirty work. And you have no power to do anything about it. One of my biggest fears is any day they could just end my life and no one would ever know the truth.

The fact that a detective is thinking “Guilty until proven innocent” is truly backwards thinking. Those detectives shouldn’t even be able to be detectives anymore.
That's how law enforcement are. They get called out and make a judgement call if your innocent or guilty on the spot. Have had this happen to me several times by people who just didn't like me. Actually once got arrested for my friend having drugs on him and all I could say was , it ain't mine. Spent 5 days in jail then spent $1000 bonding out. Luckily the guy went to cot before me and told them I had no idea he had the pills on him. Even crazier I think fact that he has just picked up the prescription and had sat 2 pills on his center console to take once he got something to drink. Cops didn't even care he had a prescription. F em .
the fact that he got framed and charged for robbery after he actively made change in his life to overcome his criminal past and to become a better person is fucking awful
Cop: *applies tactics to make person uncomfortable to mess with them and make them confess something they didn't do* Also cop: why are you acting so nervous?!
@go away by your logic, it is unfair to assume your parents are their to help you. It is impossible to generalize all investigative officers as completely unwholesome and robotic.
Let me get this straight. The cops are chasing a man who was caught robbing a jewelry store. They chase the small white man down the alley, lose sight of him for a second, then they regain sight of him and he's magically a 6'3 black man?
My guess? They were chasing agent 47 and he slipped into a new disguise just in time for them to see this bald guy and arrest him instead. A real 500iq silent assassin move.
What makes our judicial system so difficult is that even if someone is deemed innocent they may NOT be innocent due to lack of evidence or alibi's that work in the defendants favor.

In that situation you don't know what's going on and you know that, so the most reasonable thing to do is be polite as possible while getting information and holding your ground.
I know!! When he said, “ok, well…thank you “ I was done 😂😂
@@misteral9045As a Black woman, I really appreciate you bringing up the racial factor here!! Thank-you for caring enough and being educated enough to speak on it! I'm so sorry you've been judged bc of your identity as well 💔
I was falsely accused of armed robbery when I was 18 years old and about to go into the military. The detective tried all kind of intimidation tactics to illicit a confession from me and said he had my fingerprints and video evidence. Fast forward to my court date, it ended up being a completely different guy who had the exact same name as me and lived in the same town. He was positively identified by his fingerprints and I was free to go. That took almost an entire year of my life from me.

Being charged for a crime you KNOW you didn’t commit has to be the most frustrating thing. Especially as they try to gas light you into it
best part is when the police tell your entire family you are guilty and you have to disown your entire moms side of the family after they throw you under the bus.
Especially if they torture you into confession, imo that’s worse (even tho it may not be as common in your country)
Detectives don't actually give a rats ass if they get the right person they just need to get *someone* the dude even says in this video getting confessions without evidence is a badge of honor and gets them promotions
I am in this situation right now. Luckily dealing with Swedish police and not US police 😅
All they care is the case closure and the next promotion... or do you think he is the first innocent person in jail? Some will have to fight 30 or 40 years until they get justice, other will die in the process without the truth coming out at all. Cops are not good people, they don't care about you at all. It's a business
One thing to remember: the police are legally allowed to lie to you about supposed evidence they have against you in order to try and coerce a confession out of you.
So if you know you’re innocent without a doubt, *DO NOT TALK TO THE POLICE AND REQUEST YOUR LAWYER IMMEDIATELY.*
In my country confession in itself is not enough evidence.
how does that make sense tho? if u know ur innocent without a doubt u should just give them all the information u can so they realise it's not you they are looking for..? what do you think could that do bad for u in that moment?
@@crypton1782because police sometimes will try to get a confession out of you or make you look bad because it can lead to a promotion and it’s not always clear if the person you are talking to has your best wishes in mind or if they are looking to just put you in cuffs and climb the ladder, so it’s just better to play if safe if you’re completely innocent

@@rikuzonex This was in Canada.
"demoted and suspended without pay" yeah sorry, thats not good enough, not even close. They picked a man up off the street that didn't even remotely resemble the suspect, told him his guilt wasn't in question in an attempt to get a confession, threw him in prison for three days, and couldn't even be bothered to check his alibi in the meantime. At that point the "detective" has proven himself not only to be a useless investigator, but also a liability to the functioning of a criminal justice system. They should be permanently blackballed from any position at any police station or court anywhere. I know there are a lot of cops who have done a lot worse, but honestly our standards for law enforcement are far far too low, even something like this cannot stand
That's how it works

idk it's bad but 3 days of jail time isn't the end of the world. If this works 90% of the time to get an actual confession from a real criminal, then maybe it's more useful than not doing it.

*Don't trust cops, get a lawyer!*
I've been in this situation before. Not only is being wrongfully accused stressful and depressing, what I was suspected of is vile and egregious compounding the emotions that comes with it. Not only that, but I'm from a small town and the 2 detectives who questioned me while 15 other cops searched my house, one was my former neighbor for years whom I've had beers with and the other was literally my childhood best friend that I had known for 40 years at this point. Still they lied and tried tripping me up just to get a confession.
i feel so bad for the one guy who turned his life around only to be wrongfully charged.
Wish I knew who he was so I could send him a card. Luckily I’ve never had this happen legally, but in my engineering career, coworkers’ ethics has been a huge issue for me. It’s like people are happily and willingly delusional because it “gets the job done”
Yeah this happens way too often. There was another man who tried to turn his life around and started a family only to be wrongfully accused of murder and sentenced to life in prison.
Those cops probably beat their wives.
I could feel his emotions, hard not to get upset knowing this happened to him and will continue to happen to innocent people.
Anybody else find it strange that that guy was in handcuffs in the interrogation room? Usually they at least wait until after the interview to cuff him.
"Why did you do it?" is basically the bad detective version of "Are you gay?"
"No."

In regards to a crime that though he wasn't directly envolved in, believed he may have some knowledge about. I was maranded properly, and not just detained but arrested, meaning I was photographed, finger printed and put in a cell with other's who were actaull criminal's. It took two day's for them to determine, oop's, wrong guy, and simply stated "SORRY" and allowed me to leave. Which I did post haste.
However, because I had been in my auto, they the police had it towed from the area and impounded it. I now have a record on file with my finger print's, photo, and was forced to pay the tow charge and the impound fee. And also had to face my boss for not reporting for work in any way shape or form for two days.
This could have been a longer story, becasue it actually doesn't include some of the various thing's I viewed and almost had to endure myself while in the cell with other's who had actaully commited crimes.

last 15 seconds were so satisfying to hear!
"Suspect is a small white male"

Was so focused on the investigation and then first comment I saw was this. I'm dead bro
If an officer KNOWINGLY falsely accuses someone of a crime they should lose their badge/job plain and simple.
How would they prove they knowingly falsely accused though?
@@aidanleung1298 Like first incident. Looking for small white man, but instead arrest 6 foot black guy.
@@aidanleung1298 Very easy, claiming you have video evidence or witness testimony when you don't have such, or any evidence at all for that matter, yet still try to blatantly coerce a confession. Even when directly being called out for his bluff maintained that he had this evidence. There is a point where testing to see if someone would crack, becomes blatant vindictiveness, which is what this officer displayed
@@aidanleung1298 by getting actual evidence and not being braindead
And pension
demoted and suspended - glad to hear that. total BS what they put him through.
These psych observations are fascinating. I do the eye contact one often and didn't even realize what it meant/how its perceived until now. Ill be on the lookout now for other "Non-verbal challenges".
also always ask to view the evidence.
What have we learned today kids? Don’t talk to cops. Be like Jeff.
The ultimate conclusion after every video.

“Demoted and suspended without pay” - so there are happy endings
Should have been locked up and outright fired.
Typical weak ass slap on the wrist for the "brave heroes" of the so-called justice system
This kind of piece of shit needs to be locked up, given the treatment that who knows how many innocent people he's gotten to confess have dealt with.
@@dickcuntsler8742 I don’t think anything would’ve happened if they were American cops. This shit happens all the time

Unfortunately not everyone will show confidence when innocent. Some people are 'soft'.
Messed up and yet we're still advancing in being a just world compared to years before.
Put the so called investigator behind bars for his injustices.
Michael: A tall black male
The detective for some reason: Hmm yess, this is a short white male
I really expected a Michael Jackson joke there
@@zoe-jj6jc there probably is one somewhere
Hmmm yes this male is made of male
Hmmm yes this is 1934 right no one cares about this man***
imagine if he brought in a short white female instead haahahahaha
God the interviewer constantly talks about truth, but you arrest the first guy you see off a bus, GTFO.
Wtf oh shit proto HEY. Random celebrity in the comment. Wow. Omg I’m HII!!!
But...but...the guy off the bus was a BLACK MAN! It doesn't matter if the witnesses saw a white guy.
It was 2003 and the police officer was plainly from the UK. At that time and before it, the UK was rife with racial prejudice. A government initiated inquiry, headed by Sir William MacPherson, proved this to be the case (c.f. the MacPherson Report). This officer was plainly operating on the trusty principle of black = guilty.
HE WAS BLACK! i thought he did it too
@TheBull916 The white guy knew the owner of the house, had been in prison for the same crime, and he was (wrongly) identified by a witness. Though he was wrongly accused, there were reasons he was handcuffed and questioned. As for the black guy in Canada, where was utterly no reason to hold him...except he is black.
This guys composure was truly amazing
I saw a video essay/documentary on UA-cam about something like this about a little girl who went missing as a kid, and they went the whole video showing us evidence and it seemed like this one guy was the culprit, it ended with a plot twist, he was proved innocent, they ended saying something like how you shouldn’t make quick judgements based on evidence that may be biased or something like that, it was great but I can’t find it anymore
Cool story bro
"i'm innocent"
"That's exactly what guilty people say!"
good detective work.
That’s also what innocent people say
Especially in Among Us
IKR and it's not fair to the innocent...
@@LegatusMortis mad sus
Vote @@llx3559 out he accused me for no reason
"he is unaware that he is about to be wrongfully imprisoned for just over two years" that genuinely broke my heart.
I wish there was some follow up on the witness. Either she lied or she confused him with someone else.
So sad!
@@owie4070 it says in the video, during trial her story was picked apart and it uncovered it was a lie
@@nateclimer9876 Thanks I guess I missed that part, but I wish she paid some price for the guy getting locked up for two years.
@@owie4070 no problem :) yeah, hopefully something happened with that.
"Voiced his innocence but didn't resist the arrest" Just like how he supposed to do! Never, ever and ever resist your arrest! Especially if you're innocent!
It's so frustrating just watching that, I wonder how they were feeling
Cops: We lost him. Let’s just arrest the first person we see.
Pathetic isn't it?
A small white man is the suspect and they arrest a large black man WTF???????????
“That one!!! He’s black!!”
Him: It’s not me
Interrogator: That’s not up for debate
You're not far off there.
The officer got so excited about finally using the interrogation techniques he learned at the academy, that he forgot to check the most important part of an investigation: the evidence.
Nah he didn't forget, he didn't care about them at all. the system suit him perfectly though because it worked.
"...evidence? There's supposed to be... evidence??"
@@juliusperseus8612 Jokes on him, if you watched the whole video, he got demoted and suspended for his lack of caring. The evidence he claimed to have "seen" was bullshit too, defenitely thought he'd get the job done quick, get his pay and ruin someone's life.
What do you mean? If a woman says something it has to be true. No need proof of anything.
@@zae2193 ACAB
"Asserting his dominance"
I have had 3 incidents where the police either falsely blamed me for a crime I didn't commit or where involved in the crime themselves and tried to implicate I had something to do with it. One of those found me in an interrogation room where they accused me of public urination. I found it an odd charge especially if you're trying to set someone up. They eventually told me if I admitted to it I would just receive a fine and they'd let me go, and if I didn't they would jail me. Being that I had a job and kids to get home to I gave them a false confession as they asked for. A few days later I got a letter in the mail saying the charges were dismissed. None of it made any sense. Another situation involved my then pregnant wife and I randomly getting robbed at gunpoint at home early in the morning. The guy left with $80. He kept asking where the drugs were which didn't exist. I always thought it was weird that they would choose our apartment and think we had drugs. Maybe a month later I was approached by detective who asked why I never retaliated against the guy who robbed me. I asked her how I would even know where to begin and then she said his name was Steven Wright from Chicago and if I asked around I could find him easily. That he lives in my neighborhood. There was this crazy smirk she made and the way she kept talking made me think she wanted me to kill this man. I was floored, confused and didn't how to respond. It was a really weird dream like moment asking myself, 'wtf is this?'. This also was around the time these two officers were going around and robbing drug dealers as well. And most everyone knew their names and yet they were never arrested and nothing was printed in the paper about it. There was no way the police didn't know about it. Realizing how corrupted the police were, ever since then I try to stay out of sight and always make sure I have an alibi, witnesses, cameras, phone location on, etc. They will just use innocent people to do their dirty work. And you have no power to do anything about it. One of my biggest fears is any day they could just end my life and no one would ever know the truth.
Michael is the type of person who you'd want by your side in a crisis.
no he will pissed you of because he is so calm , the contrast will be unbearable
he'd be a sweet boyfriend too
@@RED01SEA But he would be able to logic his way out of the situation much easier than most people because he'd be more calm
Meh, in a way, yes but I'm gonna say no. Yes he's calm facing a crisis, however he doesnt seem quick to fully grasp a situation and form a plan as well as seems very passive. Yeah, i'm gonna say he'd probably get you killed.

@@timothygeegan558 are you having a stroke bud
@Gia I dont understand that detective, he didntfollow any potential lead to prove his innocence. That's his job. Is to make sure the Innocent *dont* get punished, and that the guilty get found. Not just the latter. He fucked up his life
@@pohorex6834 that is his job. However a lot like to just put the blame on someone or something to simply close the case.
@@shanebolger7802 they better have reviewed his actions on a false imprisonment and potentially had him fired, or at least demoted to a B-cop. Likely didnt though, unfortunately
The suspect is a small white man?
Grab the nearest black man and call it a day, I’m tired
The judge tore these cops a new one
“Prove you’re innocent to me” is insane to hear from a detective. Especially when you’re completely wrongly accused.
The fact that a detective is thinking “Guilty until proven innocent” is truly backwards thinking. Those detectives shouldn’t even be able to be detectives anymore.
The onus is on the cop to prove guilt - what a piece of excrement to pull that one...
They get real bitchy when you remind them it's their job to prove you did it, not your job to prove you didn't
That's how law enforcement are. They get called out and make a judgement call if your innocent or guilty on the spot.
Have had this happen to me several times by people who just didn't like me. Actually once got arrested for my friend having drugs on him and all I could say was , it ain't mine.
Spent 5 days in jail then spent $1000 bonding out. Luckily the guy went to cot before me and told them I had no idea he had the pills on him. Even crazier I think fact that he has just picked up the prescription and had sat 2 pills on his center console to take once he got something to drink.
Cops didn't even care he had a prescription. F em .
I know what u mean but unfortunately its exactly what u would here from a detective.
the fact that he got framed and charged for robbery after he actively made change in his life to overcome his criminal past and to become a better person is fucking awful
So sad to watch stuff like that happen, I don't know why that girl lied about him in the court
I hope he got compensated
@@SocksInAHat that never happens, it's always the legal system being "oopsy, sorry lmao"
@@danielmiyahara320 kinda fucked up but didn’t the black guy get compensated? Im sure this guy would too, especially for doing a few years
it happens a lot because once your in the system you later "fit the description"
Cop: *applies tactics to make person uncomfortable to mess with them and make them confess something they didn't do*
Also cop: why are you acting so nervous?!
Any cop who wrongfully put someone in jail for years should experience the same amount of years since this is stupid
"We have a video camera with the proof"
"Okay, then let me see it"
"No."
Shit like this makes my blood boil.
It should make you happy, that proves they don’t have it
Im on the fence here cos both of you make a good point🤔
one opinion doesnt mean everyone. @go away
@go away by your logic, it is unfair to assume your parents are their to help you. It is impossible to generalize all investigative officers as completely unwholesome and robotic.
He was lying at that point in time lol they don't have access to camera footage for the first day usually
Let me get this straight. The cops are chasing a man who was caught robbing a jewelry store. They chase the small white man down the alley, lose sight of him for a second, then they regain sight of him and he's magically a 6'3 black man?
Nah nah that’s a magical ally
racism and incompetence, what a fantastic duo
@@LuxConcordiae
Pretty sure incompetence explains everything. Especially because you don't know the color of the arresting officer.
My guess? They were chasing agent 47 and he slipped into a new disguise just in time for them to see this bald guy and arrest him instead. A real 500iq silent assassin move.
Cops don't give one shit about the truth, only closing cases.
This unfortunately isn't a rare occurrence. This is why they say you're not supposed to talk to police even if your innocent.
What makes our judicial system so difficult is that even if someone is deemed innocent they may NOT be innocent due to lack of evidence or alibi's that work in the defendants favor. There are so many variables and I dont know much except it's difficult to judge the quality of someones character just by looks sometimes. *SOMETIMES*
I hate these detectives that prioritize their own careers over someone’s freedom
Yeah!
Authoritarian Order Followers.
And lawyers..
@@torwne6964 lawyers are different. Some are definitely sociopaths, others sometimes have to defend the guilty, or make cases against the innocent. That is their job and even the criminal has the right to an attorney under law.
They should be buried under the prison. They are worse people than most run of the mill criminal that they try and lock up.
That ending was so satisfying - what a terrible ‘investigator’. Shameful
it was painful to listen to him try and use interrogation "tricks"
Right? He sounded like it's his first day on the job...disgrace
Lol, if this happened in the US, they'd get promoted instead. People go to jail for years while innocent and get nothing for their time. 40 grand for 3.5 days isn't bad at all. Canada, gets it right again, good job.
Was just gonna say. Ends with the perfect revenge sting.
Totally agree!!! Canada is a bit shit in that regard
The officers should be fired and given the job of picking up dog crap in parks. He really shouldn't be in laws enforcement
The most amazing part of this is that the officers at fault were actually punished.
The lead investigator who was "demoted" is now the vice president of the police association in his county and makes almost 200k a year. Police punishments are fake.
