COVID leads to man's wrongful arrest 

@Gillian Finch or he was suspicious the guy stole his identity. When mine was stolen i knew exactly who it was behind it and we were NOT friends!

Like cops give a fuck whose lives they ruin. Arrest is an arrest to them. Let them figure it out in court and go into financial ruin. No sweat off their piggy backs.

@Gillian Finch he didn't know how the suspect got a photo of his ID, he heard about it later. And what does whether he supports BLM have to do with this incident at all?

Hope he sues

It's OK. The cops investigated themselves and determined they followed proper procedures. 😆

Agree100%

My mom said that. I told her that they string up innocent people every day.

Yep. They’re either plain ignorant, lying, or delusional…..

Exactly

Anyone who says that will never believe this could happen to them, *until it does.*

Yep and they know it...sue the city and state and perhaps us a citizens get tired as this hit our darn pockets! Reform is desperately needed!

SO TRUE.....WITH MULTIPLE DEGREES IN THE CRIMINAL JUSTICE FIELD....STILL CANT GET HIRED!!!🤷🏾‍♀️🤷🏾‍♀️

That's exactly why the government & the police need to make sure their records & pictures are removed from the main sites & any other sites they see it on . They should annotate what happened explaining that it wasn't him . Someone used his id . And they also should give him copies of it just in case he need to show anyone that he's innocent .

He can never qualify for section 8 housing either.

😡

Not only fired but lose their certification!

The cop isn't the problem it's the whole system. I wanna see every cop in America fired until mistakes like this can't possibly happen.

Jan 6 roiters. 100% innocent until proven guilty and still praised ( organizer of the riot Nancy Pelosi still innocent and NO one is trying to prove that she was guilty, why? everybody fears her )?

@@andrewandretti7379 🤡

Kind of like Kaleif Browder.

@@andrewandretti7379 grow up Andrew...it's not even slightly funny anymore that you lunatics believe any bs you're fed, it's really boring now.

He's too stupid to sue. Talking about his goofy hair. I can't feel sorry for someone this stupid

Just goddamn wrong.

Lawsuit I don’t care what they do they accuse you of the wrong person therefore lawsuit big-time make them pay for what they did you could’ve sat there and did time for nothing I’ll because they made a mistake will guess what buddy time to step up don’t let the system for you they’re nothing but a bunch of jokes

If you listened and watch, his lawyer is trying to get it expunged and compensation

He must very adamantly pursue a remedy in order to EXPUNGE his Police records and COURT records. More importantly he must seek to EXPUNGE the Police and arrest records from the Police computer database including NCIC and FBI Database IMMEDIATELY if not sooner.

And his record is going to keep growing, because once you are in "the system" you never escape it's reach. It always get's you again eventually 😢 sorry my dude. You definitely need to sue that officer individually through Civic courts. So he pays for it himself not the citizens and he skates on with nothing

It is terrifying to know the police simply dont care if they have the wrong person or not.

@@ianbattles7290 There are cases where police know full well they're arresting the wrong person but then arrest them anyway, look at all the people who were arrested for supposedly stealing rental cars lol all of those people had a proof on their phones or in writing that that the car wasn't stolen and the cops always take them to jail anyway, they don't even get cited and released when they have proof that the accusation is false... but this guy is out here doing something that can get motherfuckers 40 years and they won't even take him to jail, Instead they do what's called a "hi and bye" which is where they book and release you without taking you to jail which also means that they don't get any fingerprints or DNA samples from you...

When this happened to me the lawyer said to let it go because I would be targeted and they (the police ) would make my life a living hell.

@@mrfish3971 It wouldn't matter the case....if it comes to suing the police, they're gonna make your life a living hell regardless. So go big or go home!

"Violent" threat to the public.

Thank white people for that. All of a sudden the dope friends shouldn't be jailed

@@kewlztertc5386 "Or otherwise pose a danger to the public or property". They said that, in quotes, then they released felony drug trafficker because he did not meet that standard.

Maybe they are involved

You caught that, too? (She quoted, "individuals who pose a danger to the public or property".)

Lol

This isn't unusual. Police only need your name and DOB. They can look you up including your DL photo. Same as if you get pulled over without your DL. A photo of your DL, is accepted in many states for some official purposes. Because things are so easily variable, there's a push to go digital. It's also crime to give false information.

@@kewlztertc5386 ; No , you're missing the point or trying to , the id of the male that they let go , this is why I stated that they let him go without a photo of him , that leads to the last line of my comment ,

It happens way more than you think but because this guy was working had a car was trying to be middle-class and couldn't be spun as a thug they had to release him, police do literally go to the hood and just pick any black male who vaguely matches a description send them to jail and collect their bonus for solving the case so quick. Now every single person in jail says that they are innocent so nobody even believes when people are actually innocent. And if you have any priors at all, maybe you had some weed maybe you got in a fight, you're now a criminal for life and whenever you need to be sacrificed to the for profit prison system you won't have the positive outcome this man has. And yes this is a positive outcome, heck even if he served a couple years he's luckier than most.

@@kennethlee8690 It's not unusual for police to accept a verbal name and DOB. It IS UNUSUAL for police to take photos of you outside of the booking room. Yes some police may do it, but it's not policy.

The cops took the law in their own hands open and shut case just like what Chapelle said. Because he looks black he fits the profile

Sue them

Oh but they can't compare fingerprints because they didn't arrest the guy that night it's called a "hi and bye" when they book and release you without taking you to jail

He should be given retribution compensation to his inconvenience and false allegiigation .Hopefully, someone will help you that this process of get justice ⚖

Totally agree 💯 the officers need jailed and stripped of ever being in law enforcement anywhere

Can't be done! In our connected society the record will be in more places than you can say places.

@@randysmith9715 so sad

Okay I understand what you're saying suing the police to make sure this isn't happening again but unfortunately the police will retaliate against his family more traffic stopped more patrols around their house low key harassment

@@2057ram so you’re saying be scared? Nawww sue they ass!

@@TheNyion912 👍

Your right that he should sue but don't think for a minute the police would learn from it. They never do because it costs them nothing. They view the taxpayers as a bottomless bank account to pay settlements for their lawlessness.

Yall are all missing the bigger picture theres qualified immunity so even if he wanted to he cant go after them legally

It's racist to ask for ID, or didn't you know?

@@kingphilwill oh

You mean like do their actual job? 😎

@@jackstrubbe7608 Simply running this young man's plates could have ELIMINATED him and they wouldn't be getting SUED for 'False Arrest!'

@@Ms.Byrd68 of course. There were so many discrepancies here it's embarrassing to call them law enforcement.

@@jackstrubbe7608 I know, right?! And I'm tired of them UNALIVING my sons, my countrymen and embarrassing our Nation. Nobody wants 'Criminal behavior to flourish'... NOONE! But we want them to stop hurting innocent people by playing 'Judge & Jury' and/or not following their own STANDARDS OF POLICING & PROFESSIONALISM! As 'Taxpayers' we tired of PAYING for INCOMPETENCE and their BIGOTRIES.

Douglas; The record will not be expunged! In our connected society by this time everyone from the TSA to the FBI, CIA, and every insurance company and all employers have his arrest record! Likewise I hope he sues for millions. Eliminate qualified immunity, make the cops either carry insurance, or have the PD pay.

@@randysmith9715 Afraid you are right. Once you are in the 'system' records, an act of God might not get you out.

They took him several days later not that night.

He can get it expunged and he still should sue

@@GrandMasterLynx A friend's nephew was arrested, charged etc and spent the weekend in jail. He was innocent. If the police had checked they would have known this young man was at work. It was a summer job taking care of grade school children. They had just returned from a school trip while the crime happened. Well this young man has graduated from high school and university. Guess what when a background check is done on him 10 years later this arrest still comes up. The police record is expunged it but other computer databases have not.

@@monarnyc that sucks didn’t know that

@@GrandMasterLynx Something needs to be done so all databases are notified about the person being innocent but have no idea how this could be done. I feel bad for him that he is still going through this. But if the police had done their due diligence this kid would not have been arrested. He left work, went and purchased 2 movie tickets for his girlfriend and himself since she got off work later than he did. He showed the police his job id, his paycheck stub he had just cashed his check (they emptied his pockets) and they didn't find $$ much more over his paycheck in his wallet. And he told them he took the little ones to X place. I used to work for a PD and saw so much I was forced for my own health to leave. Why ruin a person's life when it would only take a few minutes of phone calls. And now in these times much better technology. Thanks so much for understanding.

@@monarnyc Yea I thought once it was expunged it would remove everything and yes things do need to change but sadly I don’t think I would see that change in my lifetime I pray that I’m wrong about that

Truth! In Seattle, cops get 500 hours training to hire, but getting a beauticians license requires 2000 hours.

Agreed! But that’s only if cops actually do their damn jobs properly. So many dont…

@@generalohu7782 Yep...cops are people, too...some good--some bad...

@@rodmyyk That may be true be we the people hold them to a higher standard for a reason! They are given the power to arrest, to kill etc and if they can’t do their job properly they should be fired and lose their certification.

He let his friend take a pic of his ID to get into the bar.

@@jasonsherman5194 are you saying he knew the look a like? Or was associated with him?

@@J1WE yes they were friends. He even gave the police a picture of the real suspect standing next to the car.

@@jasonsherman5194 he says he doesn’t know how the suspect got a picture of his ID on his phone 2:47

@@jasonsherman5194 He said I think I know who y’all looking for & also said don’t know how buddy got his ID

Yea right in a real world he would have.

Because that makes to much sense and they do have it

Absolutely. If only more people studied law.

@@robertblackshear8963 yes indeed bro!!!

I hope you also study that money you win in the lawsuit doesnt come from the Police Dept budget. It comes from the tax payers. Its called qualified immunity. Which Im sure they are protecting the Officer who didnt arrest the subject that gave a false ID, too...

@@TrueSonofErin i just found out about it that's F××k up mann

@@deonakaogking5952 Yes Sir it is! Catch 22 but, still a necessary evil! They (Law Enforcement) dont seem to learn any other way. It also goes on their record, and a Complaint or Lawsuit will usually start an I.A. investigation. Which you can F.O.I.A. ( freedom of information act) in time for the reults of the investigation. Hope any or all of this helps!

@jason sherman: lesson which should be learned. Don't assume facts not in evidence. You don't know how he got that picture and the guy in the story also said he had no idea how he got the picture.

Biased is too soft a word. Try overtly corrupt.

Police Officers have qualified immunity. They wont be found at fault at all. The tax payers will have to foot the Bill for the Polices actions. A no win situation for everyone!
