It should but time and again SCOTUS and the circuit courts have ruled it does whenever the facts of a case does _not_ match the preciseness of the facts of previous cases where the courts found the cop clearly broke his qualified immunity! 😠😡🤬👿
They might go over that at trial, but right now, we're at the procedural posture of simply figuring out which court to go to, and people have lost their GD minds over a normal court process. It makes me wonder if we should just make a law saying. If you don't have at least more than a bachelor's degree, then you can't see any court proceedings other than the main one. People forget not being educated comes with a cost.
Qualified Immunity is literally a cop-out constructed by SCOTUS. It needs to be either explicitly eliminated entirely or VERY narrowly defined to eliminate baseless complaints against public officials.
No urgency.......no immunity! He killed an innocnt woman! Surveillance of a drug dealer and speeding through a neighborhood and running the stop sign is negligence! Keep it in the state court! He needs to be held accountable for negligent homicide!

That’s what sucks about all of this. The news has very broad rights under the First Amendment, but saying the cop killed the victim could open them up to a defamation/libel lawsuit since it wasn’t officially declared by a court.
Let this serve as an example at how “The Ministry of Truth” manifests itself in American society, even when we have the First Amendment to fight against such suppressions of truth.
Surveillance IS NOT an emergency.
Nor is the war on drugs. We lost the war, the cartels are in control.
Its about murder not drugs.
The agents business and what he was doing, has ZERO to do with his negligence.
Catching up to other vehicles in a surveillance team does NOT constitute an emergency. Even when ANY LEO is going code they are still REQUIRED to practice due diligence.

@@jondoe406unfortunately you’re exactly right.
Being on duty shouldn't mean the agent can commit negligent homicide. This is a state crime.
@@jondoe406 Qualified Immunity is actually at its core a pretty sensible doctrine that you can't sue an official like a clerk for doing legitimate work that happens to negatively affect you, but it has been warped and twisted by our utterly corrupt court system into a special protection for any public official against any kind of damages in any situation regardless of the facts and responsibility.
They don't need that much protection though
Nobody should get immunity for ignoring public safety like that.
They only care about officer safety. They aren't here to protect anyone other than themselves, per the Supreme Court.
Absolutely, if you or I blew a stop sign and killed someone we'd be in jail... his line of work has nothing to do with it.

No government agencies should have qualified immunity. Everyone should be held accountable for their actions without impunity. End qualified immunity now.
In one of the articles of the constitution says that no one is above the law not even the president. Everyone will be held to the law equally and fairly. This is what makes everyone equal according to our constitution, equil and fair treatment under the law for everyone!
I agree. They also should not be legally allowed to lie to people under the authority of their badge. These officers and agents are granted a great amount of power there for they need to be held to a far greater standard.
Never forget that Ms Amy Potter, a federal _prosecutor,_ is defending this DEA agent. This case is not just about one DEA agent trying to get away with murder. The entire system, including Potter and Judge McShane, is trying as hard as it can to make sure that average citizens can be slaughtered by law enforcement with absolutely no consequences. Amy Potter only cares about citizens being killed if it means she gets to step on the neck of a peasant. She is the worst of humanity and would feel very much at home in totalitarian North Korea.
This isn't even about qualified immunity. Qualified immunity only deals with civil lawsuits. This scumbag federal agent is trying to say he's immune to criminal prosecution, which definitely isn't a thing.
Qualified immunity does not mean they can break the law, it means you can't be sued by a criminal while doing their job.
So if you are a federal agent, you are allowed to be criminally negligent? That is messed up.

Sure looks that way!
What you're not aware of is that the so-called government went private in 1933 and declared war on the American people. It has always been a corporation chartered in 1791 to manage foreign trade and protect individuals' property. What's more is the fact that the District of Columbia usurped the constitution that bound them when the CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES was counterfeited in its place. The Bill of Rights attached to the original was also usurped in place of amendments that look and sound the same but have different definitions and interpretations of language. When one claims an amendment, one claims a privilege , not a right. For some reason, i can't seem to get this "verifiable " information into the thick indoctrinated minds of the masses.
Your employer should be irrelevant when it comes to civil and criminal accountability.
What if a defendant/tortfeasor has zero money and other assets and no insurance? You want an employer with deep pockets standing in his shoes in a civil trial.
So these federal agents think they can kill anybody and get away with it. Truly despicable. All LEO's need to be held accountable.

Did he not have a radio to contact his team? Running a stop sign is not part of the job description. He needs to be held accountable.
Actually he gets paid by taxpayers so he can commit crimes without accountability
u must be an expert on federal job descriptions. sorry u recently got a traffic ticket. Maybe u should have ur license revoked. Seems a bit much now doesn't it.
I’d like to know a bit more information about the incident. If it was critical to speed and run stop signs, why wasn’t he utilizing a siren or lights? Was this “fentanyl dealer” an immediate threat to the public? Did the agency know the “dealer’s” home of record? Had the rest of the team lost the “dealer’s” whereabouts? If the “dealer” was that much of a threat to the community, why was the dealer out free? Negligent homicide for sure. If I am operating a forklift and I drop a load on a customer or customer’s vehicle, I am responsible for those consequences even though I am acting in my work capacity.

There are cases that immunity is needed. But this one definitely needs to be tried. He did not need to be running stop signs. This was not an emergency and he wasn’t using lights and sirens

Gross negligence doesn't qualify for immunity.
if a police officer runs the stop sign with no lights and siren he is charged. this guy had no lights and siren and it wasn't even an emergency he was going to.
He gave no warning. Sirens and lights are exactly for that purpose.
Exactly!
Not true. Sometimes officers also roll without lights and sirens. If they are actively conducting official business, they can also have a claim to qualified immunity.
Not saying it's right, or even should be allowed, but your statement is categorically false.
@simsreject5925 whether operating emergency lights and sirens or not they are still obligated to make sure an intersection is clear before proceeding through it.
My sister in law was almost killed by a cop that ran a red light while off duty. It took almost seven years to settle the case because of this immunity crap. And no one paid for the new vehicle that was totaled and only a partial payment of medical bills. Government offices only pay the public for their actions when forced to by courts.
The UK provides a compelling example of how law enforcement can effectively function without a doctrine like qualified immunity. In the UK, police and other public officials are fully accountable under both civil and criminal law for their actions. This includes the possibility of private prosecutions, where individuals can initiate criminal proceedings, a mechanism not available in the U.S. This system promotes accountability and public trust, demonstrating that law enforcement officials can indeed perform their duties effectively without the need for broad legal protections such as qualified immunity. The absence of such immunity does not impede their ability to do their jobs but rather ensures that their powers are exercised responsibly.
So he ran a stop sign which he committed an infraction and it resulted in the death of an innocent citizen? What is the difference who he was employed by? This is disgusting
So they can commit a crime to allegedly stop a crime!?
Only in America!!

@@StarHunter28 you're a big fan of movies aren't you.
So flip it around. What would happen if a civilian, say a frightened mom, was speeding her child to the ER, ran a stop sign, and collided with a bicycle officer, tragically killing them? Y'all reckon the law would say "well, she had an emergency so we won't hold her legally accountable"? Any wagers on how that one would play out?
This is a fantastic point. The woman in your scenario would be screwed. I also think rushing your child to the hospital is far more urgent and popular amongst citizens than the war on drugs.
They may not get jail time though.
You assumed an emergency. The only emergency in this case was after the DEA officer struck the bicyclist and not before. He created the emergency by ignoring traffic laws.
Mom would never see the light of day.
Under no circumstances is it reasonable for a person to drive a vehicle on public roadways while not being fully in control of the vehicle. Neither the cop nor the mom are doing their emergency any favors by getting into a collision along the way.
Police want to hold you accountable for your actions but want immunity from their own actions.
The attorney is arguing that there should be NO consequences for ANY action as long as the officers/agents “perceive” they are doing the right thing at the time? INSANITY!
He ran the stop sign WITHOUT LOOKING at the intersection to see if it was safe. He also didn't have his lights or siren going so the woman had NO, REPEAT, NO chance to avoid getting run over. This is Negligent Homicide, PERIOD, Immunity does NOT APPLY!
I guess the “lights and siren” are state requirements. But no one is going to use “lights and sirens” on a surveillance. He was simply negligent!
Depends on his training, maybe this is normal
Im not sure about that
Shhh, you weren’t supposed to notice that.
Exactly. He would not be immune if he accidentally shot his commanding officer, so why is her life more expendable?
You don't need immunity if you are innocent.
Well, any jury would find the DEA agent guilty of either homicide in the second degree or vehicular homicide.
Jury trials are unpredictable. Why risk it if you could have immunity instead
But he isn't innocent.
Not true. Lot of situations where qualified immunity makes sense but it’s oftentimes being abused and used to protect bad policing

Qualified Immunity needs to go away
And the unions and the officers need to pay not the taxpayers.
@@Dmanderic1979 It should come right out of the police pension fund so they understand that they can't just violate people's rights and get away with it
Agreed
@@OnlyGetty why should good cops pay the price for bad cops?
@@andy_182 People always respond with this but can you think of a better way to ensure police hold themselves accountable even as they abuse the system?
Qualified immunity needs to be abolish from all state actors
Blue lives don't matter
Some qualified immunity is a must. Every society has those. The only question is when does it end/start. I'd imagine we would fail as a society, if we cancel QI just because a law enforcement officer ran a stop sign
without immunity, every cop would quit, or at least just stop enforcing the law, because he would be putting his life at risk just by carrying out duties. Cops would get sued 24/7 and they would be attending court hearings from every arrested individual, rather than doing their job
This is not qualified immunity. This is about whether federal criminal law supersedes state law. Qualified immunity is only about civil liability.
@@artyomarty391 what society? Does common people have immunity? Did Trump get it
Absurd. No lights, no siren, no yield; thats reckless homicide.
"allegedly" no, he did kill him. That is a fact that even the DEA agent doesn't argue with.
The fact that he wants to fight this shows you how much the government, federal agencies, and law enforcement in general value you as an American citizen.
Truth 👏🏽
I have more than enough other examples that proved that to me a long time ago.
I dont value them at all they are phycopaths
Protecting a murderer just because he wears a badge. No one should be immune from murder no matter what their job title.
How about no immunity from prosecution regardless of employment?
Manslaughterer I think.
Y'all say sing a different tune about immunity with badges when the victim is black.
@@4minute60Please continue to assume that about everyone and every situation you encounter. Everyone on earth is prejudiced except you.
You mean like the one who shot a woman on Jan. 6 for climbing through a window? Now that was straight up murder, but he was protected by the government. Or the FBI sniper at Ruby Ridge that shot the man's wife while she stood in her kitchen door holding her baby. Yeah, the MSM likes to forget about things like that, don't they?
Reasonable people know driving and ignoring safety signs in a residential area could lead to hitting a pedestrian/cyclist.
Even as an Agent he has the responsibility of operating safely while doing his job. He FAILED.
☹😣😭
Accidents sometimes happen that aren’t anyone’s fault. You don’t know the specific circumstances of the accident.
Yes we do he ran a stop sign and killed someone during a non emergency @TBrl8
Thats common with feds
@@TBrl8 If you ran a stop sign that is intentional and not an accident.
End qualified immunity!!!
I didn’t know we had immunity??
You mean, federal agents are just giving immunity ??
But we don’t give it to the President of the United States
Running a stop sign is breaking a law, as simple as that may sound. You shouldn't get immunity from breaking a law.
Seeks immunity? Now that there in itself is absolutely grounds for not giving him any immunity whatsoever
the fact that our society even tolerates the fact that claiming qualified immunity is possible in situations like this is absolutely absurd
It's not society. It's the ones who are supposed to enforce, uphold, and have the power to do so that fail everyone. Aka the law enforcement and the "justice system"
You can thank the "back the blue" crowd (that is, people and politicians who are pro-cop) for the situation we're in.
@@JonathanLedbetterhe is a federal law enforcement officer little boy he does not answer to local or state authority have some respect!!!
@@user-qz8km2qr8g Law enforcement deserves zero respect, and neither do you, Walter.
@JonathanLedbetter this isn't qualified immunity it's federal immunity. It's an entirely different thing.
This is why the legal fallacy of qualified immunity never should have been allowed and should be completely destroyed.
Yes, “Qualified Immunity” is nothing more than another Court Invention just like when the Supreme Court approved Obama’s illegal use of the, Executive Order of DACA.
Thank the corrupt Supreme Court.
Disgusting how they consistently put police failures above innocent life.
The ability to even ask for a federal immunity!!! The audacity and ego!! 🤬
The two tier justice will end violently one day.
Not by you.
YOU NEED TO STOP RESISTING SIR!! STOP RESISTING!!!!!!
@tjewett1967 Over your ___ body or something, right?
@tjewett1967 oh you sound big too there keyboard 🤣
Yes when Jesus returns to reign. 🙏✝️
DEA agent just randomly drives over an innocent citizen, while driving high speed and recklessly though a residential neighborhood?
Why are they not being charged for murder at the state level, where the crime was committed?
No jury would ever find him guilty of murder, murder is a legal term which denotes intent. Everyone agrees he didn't purposely run this poor lady down...... They charged him with the correct crime....
But yes, he should stand trial in the state
my point exactly! he thinks hes mark meadow lol
You are are a little off on your definition. The charge of " murder" or homicide doesn't require intent to kill. You're thinking of first degree murder charges. Which requires you to show the killing was premeditated. Most states will have felony murder or negligent homicide laws. @@KF...
@@777biggs
I live in Cali.....
"Murder is the unlawful killing of a human being, or a fetus, with malice aforethought...." (intent)
So I guess it might depend on the state you are being charged in, and there legal definition of murder....
The bottom line here is obviously the prosecutor had no cause to believe that the killing was intentional.....
@@KF... Not intentional, but recklessness and negligence are applicable to murder charges. He ran a stop sign, we know running stop signs and speeding are against the law. His actions caused a death. Ignoring traffic law makes murder charges pretty easy to apply.
People talk about Sovereign Citizens well these are the real Sovereign Citizens.
we need accountability
he killed somone and should be held accountable. period
"If we hold the police accountable, they won't do their 'job'" - bootlicking cons
"If we hold the police accountable, they won't do their 'job'" - bootlicking cons
Police won't do their job if they can't have fun" - bootlicking Americans who were frothing at the mouth demanding the blood of people protesting the unjustified murder of George Floyd.
It’s always the same thing. A wife of an American federal against killed a young boy on his bike in Britain. She fled the country back to the U.S. and wasn’t held accountable due to her husbands federal immunity
Yes, he should be held accountable. The question is what is accountable? Prison? ... How long? We know it is an accident but was he reckless. I don't think he should be locked up for years and years but he does deserve time.
someone who puts people in prison for victimless crimes wants immunity for killing someone? what a hippocrite
Drugs like fentanyl are not victimless in any way. It’s impacting a lot of people and especially when mixed into other cocktail drugs. Remember George Floyd? He swallowed a speed ball which had I recall 3 times the safe limit. He did it to himself. But it was not victimless. It got cops who were following job guidelines put in prison because he was black. That impacted 3 cops lives right there. Not an over fan of cops these days, but this case was text book.
Most under valued comment I've seen here.
EXACTLY!!! Killing under the color of law. They always think THEY should be excused! Total hypocrites!!
The hypocrisy!!
The irony is that the war on drugs is the reason we have Fentanyl everywhere because they found it easier to smuggle due to it's potency. Imagine if we spent the trillions of dollar on treatment for those that want it. Every penny has been a waste fighting the war on drugs. Big Pharma started this opioid epidemic.
