Do you think the officer would have gone hands-on this quickly with just anyone? How could he have treated Malik differently in the very beginning?

This was a targeted attack.
As lawful orders are concerned, a cop can ask you to step out of your car. But can a cop ask you to go back in your car? Does PA vs Mimms apply here?
How about Commonwealth vs Barr? Because odor does not give probable cause to search..
Is "get back in the car" a lawful order? Maybe. They love to make us do Stupid Human Tricks, just because they can. They can "detain" while they investigate, but does detainment give them the right to search?
That officer was scrambling to get out of his car, like this was a known desperado, before the man was even out of his vehicle. He couldn't possibly have smelled "odor" at that point. So he got out trying to make trouble where it didn't exist. Sometimes I think that "racial profiling" is an excuse. Not this time. This "officer" is going on the idea that "he's black, so he must have been smoking weed".
@@JackFromLeivasy The driver had just come from a "high crime" area. The cop did this with no other information other than he was parked in that area. Even if this guy was a drug kingpin, this was straight profiling with a guilty until proven innocent mentality. All for the way this "peace officer" handled the situation.
In fairness to the cop he did tell Malik to get back in his vehicle twice. This isn't about a cop overreacting. It's about Malik and other "auditors" who over dramatize every interaction to get a response for likes on their YT channel.
Smelling marijuana or alcohol seems to be the first attempt at covering up poor police work with a conviction.
Smell is not Probable Cause
i Agree ahhh the old i smell Marijuana trick.
@@Poppa_Capinyoazit shouldn’t be, but it is anywhere pot is illegal. Corrupt cops only need to claim they smell an odor and there is no way to prove otherwise.
I wonder if they have a certified nose or they are part German shepherd?
Of course they always want you to stay in your vehicle because that gives them a "stronger" reason to demand your ID.
"Stay in your car" for police safety.
"Get out of your car" for police safety.
I am so tired of officer safety.
Yep. It’s all about control.
*...and you do the Hokey Pokey - that's what it's all about!*

To: texdevildog9174,
HERD UM IN HERD UM OUT RAWHIDE!!
I love how police record their own crime but get away with crime. Abolish qualified immunity.
No officer should have a badge if it means using it as a shield from the law.
I know, right bro?
Three patrol cars within seconds of being blue lighted over a seat belt... definitely profiling
This “I smell marijuana” exception to the 4th amendment needs to end. There is no way to “prove” the cop is not lying.
Doesn’t matter. Cops aren’t held accountable for lying. So why would they care? That’s why the cops don’t care.
That's a damn good point!!
If we had a fair system, records would be kept as to how many times an officer claimed to smell marijuana, alcohol or whatever, and a later search or blood test showed no evidence of either. Such records should be (but probably are not) admissible to challenge an officer's credibility in court.
Well, statistically they do lie.
Smell is notadmissable in court
I don’t get the point of supervision in law enforcement if it’s just going to be a buddy system
You actually do get it.
@@ALL-Lions so your saying it’s planned
Like overcharging cops just so they can beat the charge?
You try to supervise a 5 year old that also happens to be heavily armed.
The joys of requiring you to stay in the car, and get out of the car "for officer safety". 😂 arrested for scaring the poor policeman.
But supervisors would watch their staff rape a child and then explain to the child why they didn't show enough respect to the officer.
@@Ndqarhaving been in the army, I would be on sh.t detail, or in cells for lying to my supervisor. And I was armed with a machine gun and grenades.
I've stated for 60 years, after getting my diver's license, that we live in a police state! And after coming home from Viet Nam, I lost all respect for the Judicial System
I will never understand the ppl who cheer on an expansion of state power for non crimes
I have “freedom loving” friends and relatives who will applaud this in loco parentis garbage
SMH
People either don’t care or WANT to live in a police state. I cannot believe this is Amerika
When a cop claims that he smelled the odor and never finds anything, that cop should never be trusted when he claims that he smells the odor. This cop should be fired.
And they all say th exact same thing, " I smell the OVERWHELMING odor of alcohol/weed!" Then they go on to blow trip zero and no weed found. But it was overwhelming, right,
Yes. Marijuana has a very distinct and strong odor. 100% reliability is not realistic, but at least there should be something else that can explain the smell. It doesn't come out of nowhere.
@@jbird4478 Many times it comes out of the cops imagination .,.. and an overwhelming desire to search a vehicle (remember if they find money the police can take and keep it ... a new cappuccino machine for the precinct)
If the Supreme Court has ruled that they aren't responsible for our safety then all seatbelt laws need to be deleted.
Excellent point.
YES!! This has got 2 b the absolute best comment!! Not only 4 this video, but for all like this!! ❤️
The difference is seatbelts actually save lives, while police escalate and abuse their power. One is a perfectly reasonable safety feature, the other is tyranny.
They won't because its a money grab. Its not about safety. Safety is used as a guise to infringe on rights all the time.
@@MichelleH-ti7fb Thank you!
The fact that two other canines turned up within seconds without a call for back-up just proves that this was an ambush. Just lowlifes.
At least it provides proof they targeted him
2 back up units , lights on before 1st cop even got out of his car!!
I see this case as karma catching a racist
3 police cars for a seat belt ticket?
It’s not about qualified immunity, that itself stems from the Patriot Act, which is the main problem for our freedoms and these tyrants.
pretty sure this was going on before the patriot act
Qualified Immunity was introduced by the Supreme Court (not Congress or the President) in 1967 ( Pierson v. Ray). The Patriot Act was introduced in 2001.
When cops are getting 3-5 days paid leave as a punishment I dont see how things can change and if ever will.
They incentify the cruel behavior. Rough somebody up a little and get 3 days paid vacation. Rough somebody up a lot and get 2 weeks paid vacation. And if you cause injury, you get a month's paid vacation or more.
@@victoriabarefoot7434in Tacoma, WA they killed a man, got two years on paid leave AND $500,000 to quit.
@@Gangster_Elmo OO7 license to you know what!
lying to a supervisor used to be a termination offence

@@dadsapp at a minimum
Putting someone in handcuff and in the backseat of a patrol car for a seatbelt violation is INSANE
3 cars for a seat belt? I smell something, and it's not weed.
“You look like a f’in clown bro.”
Truer words have never been spoken.
Imagine walking up to a stranger, putting hands on them and when they ask “why?”, you say “because I don’t know who you are.” This is some twilight zone vibe harassment. Truly sociopathic and insane.
When this guy's lawsuit goes to trial in front of a jury, it would have been better if he didn't talk "ghetto." Stop saying "bro" and stop dropping so many f-bombs. Talking like an intelligent, educated adult will look better to a jury.
It's disgusting how cops just run around with the minset they can just use force to get their childish compliance for absolute BS ! No crime , no touch ! I am surprised people just don't attck police because " they don't know who they are " !@@jonstone9741
bro, I totally agree bro, you know bro. I'd bro, be bro, mad bro, too bro. Right bro?
Twice, the cop illegally tried to access his phone. Once when he took it off him probably to see if it was recording and again when he told siri to call someone. To me that's a 4th amendment violation.
Yeah, they need a warrant to access anyone's cell
What part of the PNW? (Gig Harbor and Whidbey Island, here)
@@PlaysInTraffic1 Yeap they need a warrant, and they can't compel speech so don't use biometrics to unlock you phone, you a passcode or password.
There needs to be severe consequences for this stuff.
The small town I live in, you can't even walk out in public without being harassed by them, asking where you going, where you come from, why you walking, etc.., it's crazy
He should be fired for lying to his supervisor.
100%, it should be a felony for a cop to lie to anyone. Cops can't do their jobs without lying so that ain't happening.
If you watch the full video, there's a portion where:
1) that officer said, "Found a gun... and I know he's a felon." He's NOT a convicted felon
2) a dispatcher says to that officer, "UNFORTUNATELY, all these charges were dropped and he has no warrant or convictions"
...in the end, he was released with only a warning for seat belt.
And he called someone on his watch too
Unfortunately ... they earn the hate.
"InspiredByMalik Unleashed: Surviving Injustice with Savannah Police
ua-cam.com/video/ziQ25_gabZo/v-deo.html
Civilians need Protection from the Police. Escalate, Retaliate, Illegal Search and Seizure. Police don’t serve the Public. They Fabricate Charges escalating their narcissistic psychotic tyrannical behaviour to justify their Illegal Actions. This Officer and Dispatch CLEARLY have distain for NOT finding anything illegal nor Felony Charges against this Man.
Perhaps they should be “tested” for illegal substances, ie testosterone, steroids. This IS NOT Normal Rational Thinking.
"I know he's a felon" I clearly heard that officer say "I don't know who you are" several times
So they need three cops, simultaneously, to pull a guy over for a seat belt. Lets get the recording from their radios to find a conspiracy!
C'mon everybody, It was nothing less than 'Driving Whilst Black'.
Right, he made that clear after the "crackers" comment. GTFOH.
How to say you're black without saying it 🙄
Unprovoked aggression, unlawful seizure by taking his phone and illegal search of his person. Rude, arbitrary, and irrational.
The officer definitely escalated the situation as well as exaggerated the situation which to me is akin to lying.
Yeah but the pig thinks he's doing a good job of work, stepping on the black man.
He didn't exaggerate it. He told the supervisor things that never happened as if they were fact.
That's a lie.
I’m so shocked that an officer would lie they are paragons of virtue is this not true, baaahahaha
He flat out lied. Period.
You can tell when a cops lying there lips move.
Just another example of abuse of power
I smell standard racial profiling and standard escalating any situation.
Wow,
who would have thought. A lying police officer 🤷🏽
First time for everything.
But I'm not losing my trust in them.
Just because one cop lies a little don't mean they all do😅😅
Never met an honest cop personally. I had a good friend that a cop in my 20s and he drove drunk constantly, pulled his gun just for fun. He was the biggest bulls$&!?er I ever met and he's Sergent now at my local pd.
NOT "OUR " SCOTUS? FACT CHECK! SCOTUS HAS ENABLED THIS LIE TO ARMOUR LEO'S IMMUNITIES AND QUALIFIED EXTENDED TO THE "AT THE SCENE PERSONEL" WHO REFUSE TO UPHOLD US CITIZEN'S CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS.
This is the exact reason why under no circumstances should you ever trust a law enforcement officer
I agree so much I have to say. That goes without saying
The cop would not be able to tell if he had a seatbelt on or not, as he was wearing black clothes.
😡😡😡😡 what is wrong with these idiots? Lying on camera in plain sight!! His makes me furious!!!!!!
This is way Qualified Immunity needs to be removed from Police.
They need to be held accountable for their actions.
Oder. The smell of Courrption from Police
They need to get fired for lying...
Get the "racial" issue out of this, the cops abuse everybody.
Nope sorry. These pretext stops are par for the course . Seatbelts blinkers tail lights that get escalated. The new racism is pretending that racism doesn’t exist. I’ve literally had white cops admit to me that they PURPOSELY pull over black people because they truly believe all black men have warrants. And use drugs.
Good luck the professional victims don't like facts
Yall can’t be serious

That's a fight you can't win . They will Escalate force until you loose . Multiplying bodies and weapons . Just look at Waco Texas and the FBI as an example.
You want to be unalived by 50 cop firearms? Only in America. People just do not think rationally here at all.
This Savannah police officer doesn't deserve to be called "bro." He is below anything like that level of respect.
Going into his pockets, before arresting him.
Another case of a cop enforcing imaginary laws like not being allowed to get out of your car.
Terry v Ohio: Officer safety, it's the bane of the freedom of Americans.
If he had remained in the car, they would have demanded he get out of the car. Frankly, this man is lucky to be alive. Police are losing many of the controls they used to oppress for decades. The smell of cannabis is one of the few left.
@@Poppa_CapinyoazTerry v Ohio is the stop and frisk ruling. You’re thinking of Pennsylvania v Mimms officer safety ruling.
Come on. Everybody has figured it out now. If you want to stay in your car, you get out of your car. Then the cop will tell you to get back into your car, and everything is as you wanted it to be. If you don't do this, the cop will tell you to get out of your car. It is all about the cop experiencing being in control.
Same if they lean all over you car. Don't ask them to get off the car, demand they keep their hands on the car until you tell them they can remove them.
@@victorsingery2811😂
This probably would work
For this reason:-
Reverse psychology works better on people with a stronger “reactance” trait.
People who have a great need for certainty or need to be in the “driver’s seat” are more reactive (and more ‘reactionary’) to do the opposite of what the reverse psychology ploy is suggesting.
Same way if u look at them that's suspicious an a threat, but if u don't look at them thats suspicious an a threat.
I’ve said that. Just hop out . They tell you to get back in. One of their power moves gets taken off the table.
Escalate every situation and then arrest.
If a policeman states that they 'smell drugs' and then no evidence is found to back that up, the officer(s) should be drug tested to prove it wasn't them who had brought the smell of drugs onto the scene of the crime.
And I don't think the dude "jumped" out of the car neither. He didn't look like he was in a big hurry, or moving quickly (unlike that cop who seemed almost sexually excited by the chance to manhandle someone). We only have that cop's word and, as he so aptly demonstrated, his word ain't worth spit.
Malik does this for YT likes (and a living) and over dramatizes interactions much like "auditors" do. Click on the link to see his "work." LMAO
@@daveb2280 Okay. So he's a semi-professional a-hole. Shame on him. Whatever. Doesn't change a thing about what I saw from that lying cop, or anything I said about it.

lol
They are all stupid.
They just tried to ham him up. Because they knew they fked up. I would not have even stopped. I don't comply to illegal laws.
He should be thrown in jail for saying "bro" more than 12 times in a minute
Two most common lies told by cops: "Well, we got a call..." and "I smell a strong odor of..."
If he had stayed in he would have threatened to drag him out

The goal of these departments *IS* to escalate to higher charges. They are rude, they lie and they will grab and push in the hope that the suspect will fight back.
The true reason for seatbelt laws becomes very evident when getting pulled over by an officer on a motorcycle. Peace/JT
You don’t even have to fight back. You just have to try not to fall down. If they want to slam you down face first onto the pavement you’re expected to let them and ignore your primal instinct of self-preservation.
Famous "resist" line!
I think the best counter to the "I smell Mary Jane" claim by police is to clearly state on the THEIR body cams when they say it, is to reply "Yeah man I smell it on you really badly, did you just smoke a blunt in your cruiser before you got out? You stink of weed". Now their claim is rebutted right there, and there is no way to prove either of those claims.
I am in a state that was decriminalized and now legal for cannabis. I’ve been at the gas station and had a under cover come up to me and say “you listen to rap music do you want to buy some weed”. They definitely profile in every instance but they do it to the lower class & black people and again I am black.
It physically impossible for police to tell the truth...
SCOTUS says they have legal authority to lie to us, how could anyone trust any of them? Ignorance
You can’t spell “police” without L-I-E.
Another word is L I C E, the insect that they don't want in schools. Could that be what happened in Euvalde, TX?
💯% FACTS
can't spell 'slaughter' without 'laughter'. see how that really works.
Or lice!
I’m black and they definitely racially profile with the weed smell allegations but they also profile by class. I’ve seen this happen to white people on UA-cam too. It happens to us blacks on a larger scale but it’s also depends on class.
This is so sad. they swarmed him immediately. Then escalated, then lied on him. This is scary tf...
How is it that three cops/police vehicles are on scene literally within seconds of pulling into that parking lot? Pretty suspect. Also, wouldn't the statement made to his supervisor be the definition of a false report?
That was my first thought 3 cop cars in seconds... they were all getting out of their cars at the same time.
FOIA all radio communications
Conspiracy to deprive civil rights
No matter how ridiculously minor a situation cops are enforcing their egos and escalating everything to a outrageous end.

More proof of the COMPLETE lack of proper training.
Let's STOP reciting the "training" excuse. If you ask 1,000 Parents if they _Want_ their children to grow up to be Police officers, 998 would respond "Hell No!" Almost all agencies can not recruit enough. Thus, the root of the problem is all agencies must scrape and accept those recruits the bottom of the human psychosocial barrel. By definition, almost everyone - today - who wants to be a LEO, has a demented hero complex...among other severe mental issues. Bottom line; you can't "Train" a sociopath.
Not a lack of training. A lack of ACCOUNTABILITY

Definitely treated with suspension. The cop should be fired for escalating the stop and also for lying about the circumstances to his superior.
We all need the Supreme Court to define the difference between detain or to arrest! Because police are saying detain but are arresting people!
Seatbelt violations used to be a secondary offense and should stay that way.
Why do cops think this is ok? It should be a crime. When I went to FLETC, we were taught to be truthful in our report writing. If we were not, the case could be thrown out of court.
It is a crime. But cops don't get charged for their crimez
It is also "perjury" to lie or to submit untruthful reports.
It is a crime.

It is NOW called "Standardized Police Policy"!! E.g., Courts ARE ruling that whatever police do, it does not violate any Constitutional right IF it is conducted pursuant to a standardized police policy. Here is an example.
STATE OF NEW MEXICO, Plaintiff-Appellee, v. LEO JIM, Defendant-Appellant.
"In light of the foregoing, we agree with the parties that, on the record before us, the inventory search of the locked gun safe in Defendant's truck did not violate the Fourth Amendment because the search was conducted pursuant to a standardized police policy."
SEE!? IT IS STANDARDIZED POLICE POLICY POLICY POLICY! STANDARDIZED!!
I thought the Supreme Court ruled that the simple odor of Marijuana does grant probable cause to search vehicle
Odor of Marijuana. Oh, of course.
There is no law that requires you to stay in your car at a stop... they just use the standard "officer safety" horse schiff...
The supreme Court has ruled that the police can order you out of a vehicle
AND
Order you to stay in the vehicle
So yes it's a lawful order
Oraficer: "When did you last smoke?"
Law-abiding citizen: "Ask your wife ... it was her weed."
Cop lied about his detaining of the guy. Why wouldn't the mysterious smell of marijuana also was a lie?
I got my driver's license in 1976. Then and every time that I renewed my license, I never read a law that indicates that it is illegal to step out of your car if a cop pulls you over.
Probably a good time to pull this departments arrest history over seatbelt violations
I'd love to be a judge because i'd let it be known far and wide that a police officers word alone is worthless without corrobarating evidence!!!
Judges are in on it
The problem is that they lie to get the evidence. The "I smell" lie is just a 4th Amendment work around. And until a Supreme Court Justice has to deal with the consequences of their rulings, nothing will change.
They'd kick you off the criminal bench and put on the civil bench. This was done to a Judge down in Florida. How DARE you hold coward cops accountable? UNACCEPTABLE!!!
Thanks for the heads up, in that case i wouldn't let it be known, i just wouldn't take a cops word for it .@@tbbigrocker149
He was treated like all of us. However if you comply you don't die!
This officer is full of B.S., plain and simple. I say that because of his hostile approach to this citizen, demanding he gets back in his vehicle, placing him in hand cuffs, and inappropriately points a taser at him. The law enforcement officer could have toned it down, introduced himself as an officer, stated crime or violation of the criminal code he was observed doing, and wrote the appropriate citation. Instead escalate by going into his vehicle and then ask his back up officers do you smell SOMETHING. After the fact of entering his automobile he announced he smelled something and nothing was founded to confirm the alleged smell, I called B.S., it is classic racial profiling.
