Full disclosure: I made this episode a couple of years ago, but UA-cam wouldn't allow me to post it. It appears they have changed their perspective on this so I re-edited the video and uploaded it for you all to enjoy. Watch this video to the end and show UA-cam that it was worth being posted!
Sup
ok
I'm not allowed to post comments about free information because UA-cam hates free information!
Whenever I post them, they get deleted seconds later!
Especially when I post about how to download youtube videos for free without the need for an account!
Was going to say, I swear I saw the bodycam footage a long time ago haha.
I literally remember this video lol. Damn that was a few years ago…
They spent $77,000 to do a investigation to see what is wrong with the department? I just watched it for free and I could tell you.
Ikr? And people STILL clamor for more gov't intervention on everything. Boggles the mind.
u can tell that money went into their homies pockets
opinions are free...paper work cost money.
@@purselmer5931 America has way too much government
@@issamkholoud2009 You ain't just whistlin' dixie.
Turning off and/or muting the body cam while on a call should be illegal. It is, quite literally, obstruction of justice when questionable actions have taken place.
The same as guilty
is it not illegal?
I think instant dismissal of arrests made or tickets issued where a cop muted his microphone should be mandatory
Yes, there need to be mandated punitive measures for officers who do that. Not only that, but ANY instance where the cam is off, or muted, should be used AGAINST the officer in court. Meaning, if someone says the officer was being physically abusive, and the body cam was off, it should stand almost as an admission of guilt, UNLESS there was legit malfunction.
Some severe measures need to be taken. Body cameras were all about people making sure the police aren't abusing authority, so they just turn them off.
Why would he turn it off, does he have something to hide ???
This is why "Duty to Intervene" laws must be a priority. The other officers on scene who didn't end the misconduct are as guilty as the sergeant.
Couldn't agree more. On top of ending qualified immunity, officers who see this and do nothing should be charged as well. For one: aiding and abetting as well as conspiracy are crimes, and for two: They are officers who chose their line of work and voluntarily took an oath to uphold the law, they should know better. Make it a crime to cover up your buddy's dirty work and maybe we'll finally see an end to this crap.
They actively engaged with it as well.
California just passed several laws for police reform. Including an obligation to intervene whenever another officer uses excessive force, deprives citizens of their rights etc. If the other officers on scene DO NOT intervene when they should, they can be charged with the same crimes as the offending officer. This is big change. I hope more states adopt these laws
Cops have zero duty to do anything. That kid could be drunk and drive off into maternity ward killing every baby in hospital. Cop would and could not be held responsible.
No these cops need to be held at gun point and these cops need to be stripped of their gun belts, cuffed and left in their vehicles without heat and windows rolled down.
I am very ashamed of the female cop for not standing up for this kid.
But she, as well as others that know her will quickly say that she's a "good cop". Yeah right...
She had every power to arrest the sargent but did not
Interrogating a minor under duress without a lawyer? That is incredibly evil.
@@ramn5054 Well obviously illegal.
Apparently 13-year-olds running off with golf carts is the new Murder Inc... smh
Firplay
Yet happens way too often.
Ya must say I'd have to disagree this is what's wrong with today's society in our kids look at look at our society kids need more discipline they're not getting it from home the cop checked on him and didn't put any Hands-On the kid
It's pretty amazing to me that muting or turning off a body camera isn't considered tampering with evidence.
^This!^
@The Program what situations come to mind?
I think if they aren’t with the suspect and are just talking with their colleagues then the bodycams shouldn’t be necessary to have the sound on but when they’re responding to a call or apprehending someone they should definitely have it on.
@@TandJgaming unfortunately criminal conspiracy and other evidence, such as the female officer's conversation in this very video.
@The Program
OK TO TURN OFF BODY AM:
1) Going to the bathroom
2) Off the clock breaktime
That's about it...
Did I forget anything?
There are really cops out there that think it is acceptable to use pain to get information out of a child in custody. That’s… horrifying.
Reading the constitution? Thats way too hard and TOTALLY not something law enforcement officers who enforce laws according to said constitution should do
Torturing children though? HELL YEAH! Thats DEFINITELY cop business!!
@@mud4309 When did he torture a child? It looks to me like he moved a kid from a cold golf cart to a cold car. So the kid was in exactly the same environment as he chose to place himself in, a cold vehicle without heat in the middle of the winter.
@Rafael Felan What's the biggest issue here? Is it the cold? Or the handcuffs?
I think I'm safe to say that thousands of people are handcuffed by police every day and nearly 0 of them are on trial for 8th amendment violations. So it must not be the handcuffs.
So the cold then. Well, It's quite likely that the stationary police cruiser was actually warmer than the moving golf cart regardless of ambient temperature.
Neither one of the issues you have with this scenario are even problematic.
@@CVMN-kf2qc The problem is that the heater was on and windows were up. The cop deliberately put down the windows and turn off the heat as punishment to get the kid to talk.
The punk kid isn't a child. He's a future felony candidate.
First off, let’s take a minute to appreciate that this man is trying to “freeze out” this kid who was driving an open air golf cart…
That and him being dumb enough to brag is the real crime. Definitely isn't torture when he was literally just in the same environment without zero enclosure and wind chill to boot. Furthermore, it wasn't a life or death hypothermia situation and they had no obligation to let him chill in a heated car. If the cop was smart, he would have done the same tactic (if that's his goal) by having the kid sit on the curb and never brag or mention intending to freeze the kid out. His ignorance is the real crime lol😂
The point obviously went over both of you bums heads.
I was wondering if anyone else thought that
If I'm stabbing my self should a cop come over and help stab me then say " well you were doing it". Two wrongs don't make a right
You're missing the point, it was arbitrary, unethical and unprofessional. It's not what they're trained to do. Two wrongs don't make a right.
I just find it humorous that they think they're going to freeze someone out who was just driving in a wide open golf cart with wind in his face.
The kid is a legend
He had no worries in his mind
that cops a real thinker..
Fr I'm glad someone said it
Dude said, "I can take it"
He’s so proud about his cold tactic and keeps repeating it over and over like a psycho
In reply to Halo Nostalgia Theater: The Officer is NOT a psychopath, he is a sociopath.
@@tacattac534 The lines between psychopath and sociopath are pretty blurry as they keep changing, but actually performing acts of sadism and harming others is usually seen as psychopathic.
@@tacattac534 the the one with the p is how you are born, one with the s is how you are socialized. so he can be anyone of them. but if he feel remorse he's neither he then becomes a narcissist
@@tacattac534 mmm... i thought "sociopath" and "psychopath" were combined into "antisocial"
In reply to Quare Percutis Proximum: You, as a person that uses "Latin" are likely aware that there is a ongoing revisionist/redefine "movement" within a certain segment of academia to continually "rebrand/recast" words, titles, names, phrases, clauses, and/or all technical diagnostic terminology. I prefer the more precise terms of yesterday/year that are more inherently truthful and not so overwhelmingly P.C. I am NOT concerned with "hurting the poor sensitive feelings" of the Sociopaths and/or Psychopaths. The terminology Antisocial Personality Disorder is I feel, one such misguided attempt at a non judgemental and less stigmatizing nomenclature. The individuals that actually do have these severe disorders are extremely dangerous and should not be made light of via less offensive terms.
The cop who stepped in, represents the type of person who deserves to wear that badge. I hope he continues to wear it for years to come.
AMEN!
@@Kippa617 you mean the peer who ended the literal torture and filed complaints after? Yeah he was useless...
He won’t we know how this goes one or two more good deeds and he’s fired or on desk duty
Some really like their jobs like any other professionals but you get the 1% who causes trouble changing people's perspectives.
Where was that?
How sick do you have to be to stick a child in the back of your car and allow him to freeze just because you don’t like the answers he gives you.. what in the world is wrong with these people? I’m glad this man called him out for this!
It’s cruelty against a minor. Honestly sickening. Aren’t they supposed to protect citizens. Especially kids who don’t know how to take care of themselves.
Allow him to freeze? The kid was a lot colder driving a golf cart, which has no windshield at all. He was fine.
@@Daiyuki117 Right?! It was at least 10 degrees colder when he was driving the STOLEN golf cart and he didn't sit in that cop car (with protective covering from the wind and elements) any longer than he had already been out cruising around. Bunch of damn snowflakes and their "gentle parenting".
@@Daiyuki117 you wanna tell me he couldn’t turn the heater on for him?? Regardless of him driving around.
If he has children, maybe protective services should pay his children a wellness check. Good Lord I hate to think of what he does to his kids when they lie about their homework.
Again with the muted body cams. Any officer that is currently on the clock should never be allowed to mute his or her body cam. That needs to be national law.
They should get paid by how long their body cam ia recording with sound.
@@GCAT01Living if they get paid like that, then they would only lose like 2 minutes of pay lmaoo. Your suggestion is worse.
@@juliosantiago7182 A better suggestion (although perhaps still not ideal) would be to remove an hour's pay for each second that it's muted. Or fine them for a similarly deterring amount of money. Or both. Just a thought; I'll leave the actual policy-making to people who have experience with this stuff.
@@mikeexits I have an even better suggestion. Remove the damn button to mute a bodycam. Why the hell does it need the ability to mute when its whole purpose is to be evidence that an officer is doing their job correctly and for evidence for everything he does. There doesn't need to be a complicated solution like removing pay or anything, just remove the damn button it should never be muted in the first place unless its turned off, and if it's turned off when it should be on that's a even bigger issue.
@@Zerathrax so I actually might have a BIT of an explanation. I have a bit of experience working with officer body cam footage. For context, I’m interning with my local State’s Attorney. Basically, officer microphones are all connected. When rewatching the footage you can literally hear every officer’s microphones all at once. If every officer had their microphone on at all times the audio would be basically indecipherable.
He's torturing a 13 year old to get answers....
Let that sink in...
Yeah anyone who can’t see that is a straight up psychopath. Just like that cop. But what else would the government be for if not to commit unspeakable acts and then to pretend to be there to protect us
How is this not top comment?
No thanks, I already have two sinks at my kitchen.
@speedytruck giggle a little, thanks aha
Answered about ... a golf cart
Such an exemplary behavior. It is not easy to warn a colleague of his wrongdoing in the Law enforcement system. The world needs more people like that.
Him getting sergeant of the year just proves his conduct is not frowned upon but encouraged.
Ofcourse! New Mexico LE is the most corrupt in the nation. If not second to R.I.
Who'd of thought?
@@timetraveler7 shut up hater lOL just mad the boss was black lol
I'm not surprised. Those are sick thugs mascrating as cops. And it's only getting worse. They don't deserve any kind of immunity. That's why they don't care what they do to us.
He should have gotten Asshole of the Year award.
I know this isn’t the main point of the video, but her being able to simply mute her body camera at any moment should not be allowed for any reason. They shouldn’t be given the freedom to have a private conversation whenever they want while on the job. That’s a recipe for corruption.
While I mostly agree with this, the problem is when a victim of a crime wants to talk in complete privacy with an officer about their situation. So maybe they should be able to mute it but must show valid reasons for every they do so, just like how they must explain themselves anytime they draw their firearm
@@Jbroker404 Yes, but that information should be reviewed by the relevant people and if it is deemed personal then it can be removed after the fact. The only time they should be able to mute or cover it is when they use the restroom or are on break. The camera is to protect us not them. What is the point if they can just turn them off? It is just a huge waste of money in that case.
WELCOME TO CORRUPTION
@@Jbroker404 In the UK, bodycam footage is a requirement in all police interactions according to force policy (not a legal requirement yet) and the microphone is never muted. When released to the public, the footage will be reviewed internally by several departments before being released, and will have any sensitive audio removed. There is no reason to do this during an incident whatsoever, aside from covering up a discussion which might be in the public interest from any external agencies investigating
@@Jbroker404 So they can beep over or over any sensitive information silenced after when &if it's made public= Exactly what they do when someone says their address.
If they’re doing this to kids, I can’t imagine what they’re doing to adults. Smh
Killing them....haven't you heard
You mean not arresting them for theft? Yeah, they’re doing that to adults too.
@@deloriajohnson3764 Nice fake account, bot. 1 year old account with no subscribers, totally a real person.
@@GMbowtie350 Yep, that kid stole a golf cart, drove it through town, lied that his mother had given him permission and refused to cooperate with the police. That kid's life is headed in a bad direction, but he got away with it - that's not service to him nor his mother. That kid needs boundaries and was far colder in that golf cart. The kid should have spent the night in juvenile hall because it's clear his mom can't control him (not blaming his mother). I know what it's like to have a kid like that and worse and each time they get away with it, the more they go down the wrong path. Been there.
@@sunshinelizard1 so u saying whose fault is it that teen is doing such stuff ? Government? Rep ? His parents must take responsibility for how they raise their kid...either he grows to be useful to society or a dead weight
THAT BOY'S PARENTS SHOULD HAVE SUED THE POLICE DEPARTMENT
For 30 minutes in the back of the car? The kid was colder driving the golf cart than he was in the back of that car.
I agree that it was a bad idea. Could have taken him to their office and let him sit there. But he was warmer in the back of that car than he was in the golf cart that he stole.
@@hankhooper1637 It´s not a bad idea... It´s illegal. And a much more serious crime than stealing a golf cart, btw.
@gabrielp9646 the two don't have to be mutually exclusive. I'm just saying he wasn't suffering more in the car than on the golf cart. Maybe he didn't have far to ride to get home or wherever he was taking it. I'm not pro leave kids in cold cars. I just not know the golf cart is colder than the car. 🙂
@@hankhooper1637 Yes... You´re basically saying he could´ve tortured him "better". I got it the first time.
@gabrielp9646 that's not what I'm saying. I don't support torture. Though you might think differently if you knew some of the sports teams I pull for.
If he does that to a 13-year-old, just imagine what he does to adults.
Actually it's probably worse with children because they are weaker mentally and physically than adults. Easier targets. Really quite horrifying
Yeah any self respecting adult wouldn't stand for this. The cop is a bully.
Or his own kids. He would b the type to go by schools when their going home. And taunt and bully them. Dispicable po.
@@midnightsan9917 Not always truth, minors sometimes don't understand the danger they are in on these situations. Sometimes adults can be terrorize knowing that the behaviour of these criminals with authority can ruin their lives, and they play with that too, of course.
This is the energy of "No ones safe."
"How old are you?"
"Thirteen."
"Do you have I.D. on you?"
Is that a serious question?
i mean the question wasnt that bad. It would have made things easier if he did xD, But I get what you mean
I mean, a thirteen year old could have a school ID on hand, to play devil's advocate. While not a legal government ID, it could still give them a name, verify approximate age, etc., and aid in finding where the juvenile in question lives.
That said, I assume it's more of memorized scripting for traffic stops than a thought out question lol

You can tell the female officer was scared to step up to her Sargent knowing he was wrong . I commend the other Sargent for stepping up and doing what was right . 13 year old ? Come on
@@smartstupidman She doesn't deserve to lose her badge as she seemed to be taken back by the sergeant's decision to freeze the information out of the 13 year old, she didn't seem to agree with it at all. She deserves to be reprimanded and informed that she has the ability to step up and prevent the misconduct though.
Radio communications can’t be muted. What she did was report on her superior officers misconduct in a way that wasn’t damming but couldn’t be ignored.
@@smartstupidman if she did that, she likely would have been fired. What could she have done other than what she did, report the situation to an officer who could actually do something about it
@@smartstupidman That's not how things work, questioning the actions of a superior. You could hear her asking submissive questions but she knew if she stepped on his toes, it would be bad for her career. That's why the LT showed up, I suspect she may have asked for his presence
@@smartstupidman I agree. We deserve officers with high standards, not a Lilly liver. This is not a job for followers.
13 year old kid and this cop is acting like a tough guy. It looks like that cop has some growing up to do.
Seemed like he was looking for validation and "respect" for his "clever" tactic. I've seen this sort of validation-seeking, it's a weird behavior born out of cognitive dissonance of various kinds. I think he knew on some level that it was wrong but was justifying it to himself while also seeking outside validation at the same time. Yet when he was talking down to the kid he seemed to have an air of moral superiority, like "I'm the good guy here, I'm going easy on him" or something of that sort.
That cop definitely suffers from TDS.. Tiny Dick Syndrome
Muting your body camera should be considered tampering with evidence / obstructing justice. People like this should not have a job anywhere near the public.
How would that Sargeant feel if he found out his underage family members were treated like that by law enforcement? It's like some cops forget about human kindness or decency once they earn their stripes 🤬
You just know he does worse to them. He wouldn't feel a thing.
@@drawnsequence I think his personal pride would be wrapped up in it, he'd be outraged that someone dared victimize HIS flesh and blood because he (obviously) thinks he's King Sh!t
O, all cops and their families are covered from any thing, they just hide it.
Sadly, police have a higher incidence of domestic abuse than the general public. Considering abusive behavior like this is acceptable to him, he probably practices it at home.
He was already outside, and in an open gold cart he stole.. logic helps.
I saw this case when it was first reported. The fact that the officer felt comfortable to do what he did around other officers speaks volumes !!!! 🤬😡🤬😡🤬
women are not officers, they are larpers, all mentally inform and therefor could never qualify to the office of men
If it's "brave" to stop misconduct in any industry of any kind, that tells you there needs to be serious reform to that industry.
Right!

Officer Dickerson also gets and F, for standing by and NOT speaking up while witnessing inhuman and potentially illegal behavior by her superior.
It looks like from the video she reported his conduct to another seargant or someone higher up which is why he came out there.
@@Tomatolover120 agreed.
I was wondering why she didn’t get a grade. She did mention it over the radio and appears to have been a subordinate officer, but this seems like she wasn’t given an order and, even if she was, she should’ve ignored it.
By her tone, it appeared as if she understood that it was unethical, if not outright illegal. She appeared to initially question the sergeant, but stopped herself. The context and tone makes it appear as though she refrained out of fear of the consequences.
I would give her a D+. She did report it, preventing an outright failure, but she should’ve stopped it altogether.
Yeah, this is the same department responsible for the infamous “coin flip” arrest, letting a drunk driving fellow officer go, and so on. Methinks it’s not just a few bad apples.
It always starts at the top
Holy shit, I didn't even realize that and I watched both of the other videos. Bro time to just throw the whole department away
Wish they’d coin flip qualified immunity each time too.
77,000 review of their problems. Silly, it is obviously the bosses. This guy was so comfortable with his crime. It was never in his mind there could be consequences
Methinks?😂
I don’t agree with the Sergeant’s conduct, however it is kinda ironic that he tries to punish the kid by rolling the windows down and turning the heat off. It’s not like the golf cart he was driving in the first place has heat or windows lmao.
my thoughts! I was like dude was just getting blow by wind driving that thing, that MAYBE has a basic heater
hahaha, its a known fact that inside a vehicle is hotter than outside and the same goes for when its cold.. the air gets trapped in the vehicle and the vehicle is made of metal which is now insulated ... so, they are not the same thing...
Doesn’t matter. It’s malicious intent to inflict pain. Dummy
Correction:. The golf cart he had stolen.
@@ScottieContact semantics and not the point
Would it not being stolen make it warmer or colder? No? Then there's no point in bringing it up
The fact that we hear about this is a sign that things are getting better. Good cops need much more praise.
It also proves why diversity is important. It clearly benefits everyone.
The news station that broke this story does fantastic work. You can tell the local police absolutely hate them keeping the public informed.
We need the accountability machine that is journalism, and less of the mainstream narrative-pushing tabloid crap.
Imagine acting that way towards a child. These officers should be absolutely ashamed and fired. Awful human beings.
Yea. I agree. It’s almost like GITMO where the “child”/“minor” was a terrorist. That was some white wash/black ops shit.
If that was my kid, that cop better keep an eye over his shoulder, or he'd find himself naked in the woods after a good clunk on the head one random evening.

You run into the wrong cop they turn you and your families lives upside down they move to another department...
Police departments have militant cultures, it’s not abt protecting and serving the public as much as it’s protecting the department. And what happens when the whole nation rightly calls them out on this? They punish the public by letting crime fester because they can’t abuse their power.
It’s vital for the public’s safety to air these types of videos and investigations. I bow to the officer that stopped the police officer from continuing his version of punishment to that 13yr old boy. Unbelievable that they didn’t investigate this incident much sooner and applied appropriate discipline. They should have rewarded the officers who complained of the boy’s treatment and put a stop to it. If that were my son I would have taken every single legal action possible to hold them responsible. Thank you ATA for re-editing this video so we could watch it! Hope UA-cam learns a valuable lesson. Great work as usual!
The "look at me when I'm talking to you!" is VERY telling of this clown's actual mindstate.

We need to look at both.
BINGO !
It's at the point where the bloody legislating body needs looked at, they keep making laws that give more and more power to the police, and the unions are just there to enforce the police abuse, and it's all being done in preperation for a police state! This is once again a prime example of government legislative overreach! Especially when a police officer is rewarded for bad behavour and another is passed over due to the fact he stopped the abuse from happening. It always seems to be the same. Congress is creating laws to specifically abuse the citizens.

Gee I wonder why the bad cop was promoted over the good one? The good Ole boy club strikes again. Even after just reviewing the situation those same people promoted the bad cop weeks later, and didn't even acknowledge the problem until the people came requesting body camera footage. This is the absolute definition of corruption. At that point the whole top ranks need to be fired and replaced.
Maybe I'm wrong, but his promotion came BEFORE his dastardly behavior in this video and the people who gave him a good score were unaware of this incident. Now that it came out to face the light of day, more appropriate actions are being taken (I hope).
@@MrBeevee5 it clearly states that his supervisor reviewed the body cam footage not long after the incident, did nothing, then gave him the promotion weeks after this happened. They also scored him higher than the lieutenant who called him out for his actions. 8:04

I like how the cop directs her to mute her body cam, as if the entire thing wasn't already recorded by both parties. And to that end, how cops believe they can get away with these crimes while wearing devices that record their actions as evidence is incredible.
Absolutely disgusting how they signal muting body cam and the other cop complies. They where not about to have a private conversation, it was absolutely about the investigation that was happening and the conduct of the officers.
Yeah there really shouldn't be a mute button on the bodycam and it should be a criminal offense to turn the camera off any time between making contact and arriving at the PD or releasing the citizen.
Yeah the sense of entitlement is ridiculous.They are paid public servants,they have no right to mute when they feel like they just want to hide wrongdoing or questionable behaviour or tactics.
It should be evidence tampering if they do,charges should be brought but that's too obvious as heaven forbid the cops actually faced accountability.
Why are they allowed to mute their cameras in the first place
Yeah body cams for cops should begin recording when disconnected from department computers and have no way to stop them again other than connecting back to the department computers.

I remember something extremely similar happened to me but I, genuinely, did nothing wrong. I was the same age, 13, I had been in the cop car because I needed to go to a mental hospital due to my depression getting horrible at the time, and the cop driving me literally didn't let me talk to my parents at ALL, he drove me away from them, and on top of that they were treating me like I did something wrong; they slammed me on the roof of their car and handcuffed me and started screaming in my face. It was pretty cold that day it was early December of 2019 and all I was wearing was pajamas because they had quite literally ripped me from my home with no warning
After he drove me away from my parents he turned the heat off, opened the door and stood there for a while, and asked me 'why I was doing this' and when I answered with depression he laughed at me and mocked me because I was so young. I felt even more hopeless and I felt ashamed after, and I didn't even commit a crime. the justice system is failing horribly.

By intentionally detaining that child and letting him freeze in a patrol car with the objective of soliciting information from him is akin to torture, plain and simple. The officer in question had no right to do that and should have been fired for misconduct - and then sued.
Shot. And then sued.
Capture the pig, then lock him in a freezer until dead.

The kid was dressed warmly enough to drive around in a golf cart.......... The cop's tactical genius was questionable.
Apparently the kid didn't care either for the fact he stole a gulf cart and drove down the road with that so called cold wind blowing in his face but ok
You can tell the female officer knew it was wrong when he described his plan, but calling out a coworker and superior is not an easy thing to do especially in a corrupt environment where such action isn't reprimanded without media attention.
At what level of corruption do we start calling her guilty because she just let something not just morally wrong but actually unlawful happened because it's 'not an easy to do'? I know you didn't say that she did the right thing but you also didn't say that was a wrong thing, to make us just focus on 'it's hard for her too'.
@@TheSiprianus I was more just pointing out, as others have, how difficult it is to take action against a coworker even if you know it's the right thing to do. Especially if you're at the bottom of the totem pole and are calling out someone who is your superior. Sacrificing your career isn't something that's ever easy to do and our perspective from behind our keyboards are more idealistic than what generally happens in reality.
She could have also been thinking "how is this clever when the kid was riding around in an open golf cart already?"
Regardless, if things were fair, all cops who participate in such behavior would face reprimand or be fired. They often protect their own, though.
Staying silent when witnessing child abuse is as bad as doing the abuse itself imo. You have to be a pathetic coward to do such a thing.
It’s not only intimidating, as a cop it’s downright factually dangerous. Look up “LAPD officer dies in training accident” you’ll see why. Every retired cop who’s being honest talks about hearing stories where a cop reported another cop and wound up dead. They really do operate like organized crime

@Fk UA-cam
Who? The cop or people saying how bad this is?
I can’t qwhite understand why?
The state should not say what age a person can drive. My child is 12 and because I trained her how to drive from a young age, she can drive better then almost all adult drivers. But my brothers kid who is 17 still does not have a drivers license because she’s very immature. Parents should decide what age their kid drives and if they can pass the driving test put up by the state if a 12-year-old 11-year-old 13-year-old wants to drive let them.
@Fk UA-cam I see your other comments, and you seem confused. This is a CHILD. He is not a criminal, he is a scared kid on a golf cart. I'd like to remind you that innocent people get treated poorly by police all the time, and I'd imagine you would be quite upset if this happened to you or your child someday.
I have a rare medical condition and I had to have something called a picc line, which is a more permanent IV in my upper arm, to get infusions 12 hours a day, every day. I was in my early 20s and me and my spouse went to Kroger. I always tried to hide my PICC line in public but somebody must have noticed it while I was putting my coat back on to go into the store. Some moron called 911 claiming someone had a IV to do drugs with. A PICC line doesn't look like a IV, it's purple and goes into a deep vein and was placed way up on my upper arm. Police pulled us over, treated us horribly and didn't stop once they realized I had a picc line and it was a misunderstanding. Instead, they asked to search the car and refused to give me my coat back. I sat down outside in the freezing cold(Michigan in November) while they searched our vehicle all because some idiot didn't know what a PICC line was. I weighed under 85lbs due to my medical condition. There was no reason for how I was treated and while I was too mortified by the experience to file a complaint, I really should have.
It doesn't make me a snowflake to believe that it's wrong to make a frail, seriously ill woman freeze outside and treat her like she is dangerous scum, for having a PICC line. I've never done drugs, I don't even drink, I'm so law abiding my own mother calls me a "goody goody" and suddenly I have two cops yelling for me and my spouse to get out of the car, refusing to explain why, aggressively pushing up my spouses sleeves with zero explanation and then being yelled at while I tried to explain what a PICC line is and having my car searched over existing as a infusion patient?!
I happened to be a innocent person, but had I been a drug addict? Even they don't deserve to be treated the way we were treated during that stop. After it was all over, the cops tried to be nice and it was so confusing. You can absolutely enforce the law, without making people feel like they are trash
There is no reason for an officer to be able to disable audio or video on cameras during interactions with people. Any private info can be edited out later when needed before publishing it or handing it over on request. There are too many examples of them doing that to cover their ass and it shouldn't even be physically possible for them to do so. Treat them like people with ankle monitors or treated. Always on and always working.
I know for a fact..a cop on my city killed a man. He was being held down by two citizens. The cop ordered him to be unhanded. As soon as they did, he stood up and the cop shot him 6 times. No gun. No knife. Nothing.
It's plain old f**king DISGUSTING!
I've lost count of the bodycam videos of unwarranted/blundered raid or arrest videos that end when a supervisor clearly yells for everyone to "shut off bodycams now!". They shouldn't be able to shut them off or handle/review internally afterwards at all, it should go directly to a judicial department to be reviewed.

Officers shouldnt be allowed to turn off their microphones. There should also be some kind of limit for the camera, like once you turn it on, you cant turn it off for 30 minutes. The cameras also need to display their battery life in the camera feed to ensure police arnt purposely leaving the cameras near dead on charge to get around that limit.
I was thinking of a similar thing - a delay off when the officer turns it off. I would go further and require it to be turned on the entire shift. Most take 8 GB to record an hour of footage, a 10 TB drive (less than $50) could store about 125 hours

What that cop did was not only cruel and unusable punishment but constitutes torture to intimidate. This Sgt needs to be charged with the FELONY of violating rights under color of law, Title 18 US Code Ss 242. He clearly violated this young man's rights by, in his own words, placing him in a freezing environment without heat and even rolling down the windows to make it as cold as possible so he'd talk. He even told the young man when he talked he'd get heat. Could it be claimed that the young man suffered injury from being forced to sit in the cold? If so, the punishment under the Federal law moves from up to one year in jail to 10 years in prison. If I were the parent of that child I would have been sitting in the US Attorney's office demanding those charges be file against that Sgt. I would also have file a Title 42 Ss 1983 lawsuit against him and his department. His qualified immunity would certainly be denied and all judgements would be his personal responsibility.
lets just think about this he put the kid in the back of the car, turned off the heat and rolled down the windows to make him tell the truth

Very smart officer 👌
It doesn't matter that he was driving a golf cart. I get what you are saying, that it's cold driving a golf cart. However, they had him in a warm car at one point, then decided to turn off the heat and roll the windows down. The rapid change in temperature could have caused a severe medical situation. If the child had severe asthma and this officers actions caused a life threatening asthma attack, then the officer and the department are liable. This is just one example I could think of, but not being a doctor, I don't know what other ailments could have dire effects from rapid temperature change. Maybe diabetes? I don't know for sure. At this point I'm sure you understand my point I'm trying to make.

You forgot to grade Dickerson. It's interesting that her approach was more measured, until Sgt. Elzy arrived and essentially coached her in abuse. That she went along with it is disturbing. That she later muted her body camera seems like a obstruction of justice or the destruction of evidence.
That’s how it happens. Corrupt departments go from the top down. You’d be surprised what people will be complacent with. You can hear her briefly think about objecting, but as he’s her superior she defers to him and then eventually accepts it.
It's obvious that Dickerson was a rookie cop, and Elzey was a Supervisor (he had a supervisor of the year award in his hands on the picture). Cops are humans too, and it's very hard for people to argue with a superior, unless they're in an environment where challenging your superiors is encouraged.
So I don't blame her. I blame Elzey.
@@Athinira and let’s be honest, PDs do NOT encourage you to question anyone, especially superiors.
As a woman, I'll add that women in nontraditional job roles have strong pressure on them to conform as they are already being watched for evidence they will rock the boat. Women need to be aware of this additional pressure and be prepared to resist it. Proving you're "one of the guys" by joining in on bullying a 13 year old does not make you a good law enforcement officer.
I do think that while her lack of direct action is not a good thing, she does indirectly try to stop what's going on. She does that by calling in and telling someone what's happening. It's subtle, but you can tell by her voice when he explains what he's doing that she's not comfortable with it.

that saying is that a few bad apples SPOILS THE BUNCH. I worked in animal racing, at the winning level in dog sled racing. I tell people how bad it is and people respond by talking about apples. Thats not helping anything. I feel like people use that saying incorrectly.
In this county's case, yes, the tree is corrupt. The problem is, people see this issue in Fulton County, Georgia and imagine or pretend it's the same in whatever county, completely different state they live in.
@@alkaliwreck2474 I believe a large majority of officers would overlook the transgressions of another officer, or at least show him favoritism. I believe at least 1 of these officers exist in almost every department in the country. *That's law enforcement corruption, and it exists almost everywhere.*
Imagine being the parent of this child. Hard to watch this without teeming with rage
Lol my dad would have laughed and probably given him a high five. He didn't hurt that kid. He taught him a nice little lesson though...don't play stupid games and you won't win stupid prizes.
@@A_Stereotypical_Heretic giving a kid hypothermia, potentially dangers his life, is not "stupid prize" for driving a golf cart. Your father is simply a child abuser
Imagine being the child of the sergeant! "You don't want to eat your vegetables? That's fine. We'll put you outside in the cold until you comply."
BTW, Lignum, I really wish UA-cam would show how many thumbs down your post received...
@@williamyoung9401 but stealing a golf cart and driving it on the road two felonies is fine.
This ladies and gentlemen is why qualified immunity needs to be demolished forever
When I went through the academy we had an entire course on intervening when another officer is out of line or when an officer needs removed from a situation. A lot of it focused on having a regular officer remove someone in a leadership role as the officer typically feels they can't tell a superior what to do. It was very beneficial and I've seen it used successfully multiple times.
and after you left the room, the teacher told you forget what he just said....only corrupt cops can be good cops!
"Needs removed?"
I hope you're a decent human being when you're policing. If not I hope karma catches up with you big time
@The Program
Hmmmmmm, I wonder who it was that reported this up the chain of command? That person's name wasn't mentioned here....
Treating a child like a criminal over driving a golf cart on a street. Traffic infractions are not criminal acts. Shouldn't freezing him out be considered child endangerment and child abuse?
Ask your local friends what they think. Unfortunately majority of society will side with the officer no matter what cause that’s what they’ve been brainwashed to do since birth
your logic demonstrates why you leave the police activities to the police.
@@mofo7689 🥾 👅
In no way does it justify the actions of the officer, it's pretty clear the kid stole the golf cart since they never located the owner.
@@mofo7689 Is it not considered a crime of negligence to leave a child in a hot car with the windows up?
So why is it not a crime to leave a child in a car with the windows down while entrapped in sub freezing temperatures?
You should leave your comments in the trash, where it belongs
Oh yeah, I’m sure this kid is really gonna want to “turn his life around” and respect the police after being treated like a terrorist.
Wonder how this guy disciplines his kids…and his wife.🤔
Kid didn't mind the cold when he stole a golf cart in the middle of the night driving down a main road way. Why so much pitty for him when he refused to give his guardians info for over an hour?
Who cares if he turns his life around? Law enforcement wasn’t designed for rehabilitation. It was designed to punish criminals harshly enough to discourage would-be criminals from following in their footsteps.
@@CVMN-kf2qc Nope. Law enforcement aren't the judge or jury so stop waffling.
The Laws job us to punish. The Police departments job is to Uphold the law. This is American not Iran!
this is what democracy looks like (in the disinformation age of no return).
Intentionally attempting to 'freeze someone out', especially a minor, would get you charged a trial before the UN for war crimes, but nah this dude got an award
This cop loves looking for trouble. You can just hear it. I'm glad there's a good one there that stopped him.
Yep thugs are like that
If the other officer was "good" he would have arrested the other 2
Yeah. Obviously. It's his job. Looking for trouble. What else are cops supposed to do?
We literally have them around for the sole purpose of finding trouble and stopping it.
Like a kid driving down the highway in a stolen golf cart for example.
@@CVMN-kf2qc still doesn't make cruel and unusual punishment okay. If u think its fine then I hope it happens to you mother or father because after all, its okay right?
@@wauft If my mother or father decided to steal a golf cart with no heating source in the middle of the winter, I would expect them to be cold. If they get pulled over for driving that golf cart on the highway, I don't expect the police to warm them up while investigating the situation.
I remember this video. I was disgusted by what I saw. This was so beyond cruel and dangerous I'm surprised they thought they could get away with this. I remember reading the sergeant was demoted after the media reported this, he should've been arrested for child endangerment he showed he was out of line and a danger to society because of his conduct. I'm glad another sgt put the other sgt in his place and saved that young man's life.
One thing that needs to change is regulations about body cams. They need to be federal law, and they need to be recording all the time. We have the ability to redact things that aren't pertinent, but they don't get the ability to scheme or do shady stuff by turning off or muting body cams. The redactions need to happen by a 3rd party as well.
Alternatively, 'failure to record' legislation where a mere suspicion of it being deliberately or negligently turned off, muted, or not turned on when it should have been is a mandatory fixed prison term. This would result in them being able to turn it off to use a toilet but they'd make sure to keep it running all the rest of the time. Being unable to turn it off while using the bathroom would likely violate their right to privacy.
I'm sorry, but they have been proven to have no significant effect except in a few cases. Lots of time they turn the camera off or cover it up. It doesn't seem to stop them from doing this either. Qualified immunity is what needs to end.
@@austinhernandez2716 that's why I said they shouldn't have the ability to mute or turn them off.
@@jessicataylor7174 yes the bathroom would be the exception. But that would severely limit where they could have shady discussions. And would be sus if two went in there together.
Good luck with that, they never wanted bodycams in the first place
That was not punishment , that was torture against a child. That prick cop should be locked up.
