@@tonym6193Absolutely false and highly Incorrect. 20 year police veteran now retired and now prosecutor for our DA’s office. 🙋♂️ The average academy back then was around 4 months of time at 600ish hours of academy time and only a few months of field training on the job. Now it is by federal mandate 860 hours minimum (6 months) and now a required one full year of 2080 work hours of on the job training. Back then was a full six months at most now it is a year and a half at the quickest. There is no cop anywhere in the nation that can be trained for only “six months” as the infamous quote is always stated. That is literally against federal law and just can’t nor does happen. Secondly…….crime rate per capita back in the 1960’s at its highest between 1966-1991 and then eventually dwindled down. Sheer crime rate per capita has decreased, however, deadly force incidences with police with violent individuals towards police with their actions has increased over 300% since 1999 alone. In histories past only 1 in 440 police officers were involved in a deadly force incident between the years of 1965 to 1995. Between 2010 in 2022 it is now 1 in 89 that will utilize deadly force at some point within that time frame. People are randomly more violent now than they ever have been and I saw it first hand in the final three years of my career. I want my whole life without ever having to shoot and kill anyone it may be pulled my gun six legitimate times about two in someone’s life until they decided to cooperate. I shot and killed three people within a year and a half in the final years of me doing this I was not involved in a shooting with other people, I am the one that pulled the trigger three separate times and killed three individuals on three separate incidences. People have absolutely lost their sht in this society and even making $170,000 per year could not keep me in that useless line of work. I completed my degree and walked out and quit while being unemployed for two years before coming in as a prosecutor. It’s significantly worse now.
The cool crime jazz starting at 1:40 is a cut above the usual shlock heard in these FBI films. Those cool 64 Plymouth cruisers also make this worth watching!
@The Flying Roo You put him in the front, and have the guy crawl through to the back. Back then, it wasn't uncommon for arrestees to be put in the front passenger seat, beside the officer. But since it's unsafe, they don't show that as much on training videos.
Almost a Kubrick-level scene in this thing a la Full Metal Jacket. And probably a good lesson too, don't underestimate anyone, especially if they are at the end of their rope. They were already too casual with that can opener. And you have to figure, this guy was old enough to have been drafted from one of the recent wars. Probably a much higher-than-normal percentage of the white collar work force had firearms training (e.g. Boot Camp, even if they ended up in office jobs in the Service) compared to earlier, and later, periods.
Back then, it was easier to the police to sit a suspect next to the driver (if alone) and make sure his weapon was AWAY from the suspect. CHP has a great training video showing the how's and why's for transporting a suspect. Back then MOST officers rode alone and in far to many instances, their closest backup was miles away.
Believe it or not I don’t think the police were even taught (on a mass scale) to do that until the late 80’s or early 90’s. I couldn’t tell you for sure though.
15:37 This is the city: Los Angeles, California. Even in the City of the Angels, sometimes a few halos slip. When they do, that's when I go to work. I carry a badge.
The officer in the first arrest should have impounded the suspect’s car. The department is responsible to safeguard ALL his property so leaving it in a parking lot, locked or otherwise, won’t suffice. I made hundreds of arrests over my 30 years and no two were exactly the same.
How many were innocent? How many were for revenge? How many were for financial gain? I'm not calling you anything, but most police just follow orders ,not the Constitution or laws.
It looked to me that the room was still covered. Once the known suspects were moved out of the way, two officers entered it, presumably to further clear it. I agree that it should have been included in the voice narrative.
2 cops arrest the guy with the silver convertible. 1 cop stands there with his finger on the trigger. If that was today, the perp would be black and he would run from the popo
Poor Alfred....
He didn't deserve that
The greatest danger is carelessness. Golden words.

@@kdawson020279 He also played that rather dark character in the movie Network, totally opposite of what he played in Deliverance.
I can’t believe it took so long for cars to have something as simple and necessary as a cup holder.
Or a back door
Or Sirius/XM satellite radio.
The officers in this film are so honest to the suspects in every encounter, definitely can see why things change.
yeah power is corrupting and they became more incentivized to protect property and corporate interests, trained to be completely paranoid and viewing everything as a threat
Nice to see the one officer doing the talking, In some of the newer videos of arrests, there seem to be twenty cops all screaming something different.
they were better trained back then. and their job was far more dangerous back then than now.

He should have let kitty live. Open the window or something....lol
Cars will never be even relatively as cool as they were in the 60’s ever again.

Reminds me of the cool jazz of Peter Gunn, bestest music for TV ever.

No way a cat would just be sitting there after he blasted them lol
I'm sure this is relevant and valid today 👍

He was ice cold.

He wanted no witnesses, and was afraid Alfred the Cat would have cracked under interrogation.
@@PlasmaCoolantLeak I never thought of that. Alfred seems like a "stand up" guy now but a few hours without the catnip, it's stoolie time.
The music is from Courageous Cat and minute Mouse .
Love the neon signs... Nothing like night scenes in the 60s...
Anthony Zerbe as a uniformed officer! Cool!
The 60s looked clean and colourful.
As true now as it was back then. Some things never change.
People were different back then. Dude tried to saw his throat over a manslaughter accusation which probably would of been tossed out
I can't believe that they had a two door police patrol car. Kind of hard to make a handcuffed prisoner climb in and out of the back seat.
Back then, it was easier to the police to sit a suspect next to the driver (if alone) and make sure his weapon was AWAY from the suspect.

@@MrTommyboy68check out Highway Patrol tv 1955-59. All the cruisers were 2 door sedans
Great stuph, thank you.
Is that Alan Oppenheimer as Detective Sergeant Case, arresting Alfred's suicidal owner?
Stay alert and stay alive! Conduct your arrests to a background of the swingingest big band music!
How about the early stars, that went on to make major movies and tv, what we all enjoyed!
Wow the FBI was so groovy in the 60s
AND, THEY WERE PROBABLY A LOT LESS CORRUPT.
Mead was no joke...
.RIP Alfred
4:45 The "professional" police officer has the finger on the trigger. Was that teached back in the 1960s?!
Believe it or not I don’t think the police were even taught (on a mass scale) to do that until the late 80’s or early 90’s. I couldn’t tell you for sure though.
It might have been taught back then.

1964 Dodge 330
@@n310ea Thanks sir!
This poor Alfred ! 😿
Thimpson had a great jigsaw - proper solid body stuff - they dont make um like that now.
That’s why you don’t cuff ANYONE in the Front!
At that time all FBI's agent look identical... It called my attention the telephone sets!!
Anthony Zerbe in first one.
Yes
Lol, “I’m arresting you for robbing a store last year.” Meanwhile in 2023 property crimes are no longer crimes.
Yes, believe it or not, Law and Order was expected by the American people fifty years ago, not the lawlessness tolerated in many states today.
"Illegal transportation of tuna-fish"
At the 22:17 mark when the suspects leave the motel room. No one checked the room.
Back in 1953 the FBI was looking for me,but never found me,I had stole a candy bar,I was shocked!!
Me too. I peeking out my window right now. Only I stole bubbleyum....

Did any US police force requisition US Army M1 Carbines after WW2? I'd be surprised if none did...
Humboldt NV did if I remember correctly think in the 70's
Yes they did. Thompson submachine guns and Reising 45 caliber sub guns were also given to police departments at that time.
...in the first film in the parking lot?
Not Alfred
Hot Dog , Coold Alfred .
With the amount of guns out there now, who would want to be a cop?
someone who wants a safe job where you sit around in your car all day
You meant "illegal guns", right?
They were sloppy in that last scene. Can't assume once you got your two guys it's all over - still could have been someone else in that room.
It looked to me that the room was still covered. Once the known suspects were moved out of the way, two officers entered it, presumably to further clear it. I agree that it should have been included in the voice narrative.
