I have a secret for you guys; the vast majority of small office buildings/similar have terrible security. It just isn't a worthwhile investment for most of them.
@@feverdream2661 who is going to be watching cameras all night? Also there looks to be a lot of large windows that can let all kinds of shadows and headlights through. Motion detectors would be going off constantly. Definitely should have been motion detectors in the admin room or somewhere dark.
The dude did the museum a favour. He revealed that they have security problems, unlocked doors after hours, open office doors, exhibition objects easy to grab; they have a cyber security issue, use USB sticks, which means open ports and the potential to transfer malicious data.
It's a museum, not a bank. Valuable, yes, but nothing this guy took would have amounted to anything because he was not really a criminal. He's got a serious mental health issue.
Very true... and this guy, feel really sorry for him, he obviously has some mental issues he's struggling with. Thought that the cops realized this pretty early on, and treated the guy respectfully having recognized this guy's situation.
I worked in psychiatric rehabilitation for twenty years with folks like Jason. The part when he told the female officer, “You’re more than just good, you have a PRESENCE” really hit me. He’s right. People with severe and persistent mental illnesses in the throes of psychosis can come out with some very accurate understandings of little things like that, the things we don’t all always notice or acknowledge.
@the7A7dude Thank you for your question and interest. ADD (AD/HD) doesn’t typically manifest itself in the delusions and hallucinations we see in Jason. These hallmark signs of active psychosis are characteristic of schizophrenia. Other illnesses that sometimes include this type of psychosis include Bipolar Disorder (the psychotic symptoms typically occur during a manic phase) and Schizoaffective Disorder. Jason seems to convey the belief that he’s a good guy, tasked with chasing down bad guys on private property. Incidentally, the way these officers did not attempt to challenge or negate his belief was the best way to handle this. Questioning someone’s delusional beliefs in a situation like this tends to only make them angry and defensive (it’d be like someone trying to tell you that you’re not who you say you are and that everything you believe is not true.) Kudos to these responders for their effective intervention here. I hope Jason is doing better today.
@@mleh2512 My BIL has paranoid schizophrenia. What you say is true. Best to keep them calm and not question what they believe even if it's not true. The him, it's the truth.
No one accused "a Florida man" of being a genius. Lol. Wonder if the judge had to say "ur OTHER right hand" if dude was sworn in to give testimony. Smh.
The call wasn't for an active shooter. It was for a dude sleeping in a museum. He could've done jumping jacks and scratched his behind for all I care, these cops aren't approaching a national security threat. They aren't soldiers in a warzone.
@@tomr3422 reading ur 1 word comment and picturing folks around the world seeing it and just nodding like "yep. That explains it all". Funny how only one word was needed and nothing more, to sum up the situation, isn't it? Lol
2 cops just asking different questions at the same time then cutting off his answer because he’s not answering their specific question is top tier policing.
I noticed that too I couldn’t tell if it was just the way it was edited but i assumed it was just cops being cops and giving conflicting commands like they do all the time lol

He needs mental health care and, regardless, should not be free to harm himself and/or members of the public. But “revolving door” policies just send people like this right back out to cause more problems.
Vets really need more love and care. Feel really feel bad for this guy...went through things we will never be able to comprehend. My brother had schizophrenia and acted similar to this until he died from OD....he was battling demons for decades and this man definitely in the same boat. I pray things turn around for him and his family ❤
He seems like a good guy that just really needs help, he was cooperative but messed up upstairs. Especially as a vet, I know there are services available that he really needs to get help from and I hope he gets it.
Did you not see when he was threatening the officers? @ 13:20 I agree he probably just needs & deserves some help but I fear I've seen many people on here mistake manic behavior as friendly & safe calling him harmless when in reality he's unhinged & potentially quite dangerous. He was yelling he'd cut someone's head off when he was weilding a butchers knife earlier. Imagine if some employees kid was in there & he happened upon them? This is all the more reason he should get the help he needs but again I just don't want people to mistake manic behavior (whether from drugs or illness) to be harmless & safe because the guy seems happy for a few mins. I had a bipolar mother & things could become violent at the flick of a switch out of nowhere. Cops came to my house over 100 times in less than a decade because of her Oh & appreciate your service btw
I feel so sorry for him. My ex-son in law behaved the same way and was diagnosed with schizophrenia. We all loved him dearly but it over took his life. Eventually he became a danger to my daughter and thier two beautiful little girls. He is now on disability and lives with his bother and mother. It breaks my heart!
A lot of people seem to be poking fun at this man in the comments, but he’s a veteran with mental health issues and this country often struggles with providing folks like this with the care he needs. This man’s story is just beginning and I see major problems in his future.
Don't worry, they'll put him on Zoloft and he'll be fine. No one has ever gone from relatively harmless to extremely violent on Zoloft, it fixes everything.
@@thesecretjuice I’m not sure that it really matters for the sake of discussion. He’s clearly mentally unstable and at 13:30 you can see that he has a serious, violent side. These guys often wind up committing horrible crimes and then people ask how did this happen? Hopefully he never has access to any firearms and is watched closely.
She was terrified because she didn’t know she was working in a building where some guy was in there illegally with a big knife. The other dude sounds like he has seen some stuff in his life and could care less.
Seriously, I see so many people clowning him but this is such a tragic failure from our government and our society. Really wish him the best, our country is letting him down.
He owns a fairly new Mercedes, is wearing clean, new clothing, is well-groomed, and has an expensive haircut. Looks to me like his family has money and does take care of him... but that he keeps getting himself into trouble. He needs mental health help, absolutely. The people I've met like him have always been living on the streets, and I don't think he is. Someone's looking out for him, but they can't force him to get the help he needs.
@@Kaxxonxbox, I worked at a VA hospital for 15 years. I'm also a vet. Believe me, once this man gets on his meds and feels better, he will be checking himself out ASAP. Of course, the plan isn't to stay on his meds and get squared away-including therapy. No, the plan is to do whatever I want because I don't perceive my behavior as strange. Seen it thousands of times.
I started crying at the end of the video too. Seems like this guy would be a riot to hang with. A real cool dude. But just needs some help with certain things in life. But who doesn’t nowadays with all this bullcrap going on in this crazy world we’re living in right now. A big shout out to all you vets who’ve fought for our freedom we have today because of yous. Love you all and enjoy every day to the fullest brothers….👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼❤️
They were like "is there anyone else in the building?" and he was like "I'm not sure, I was mid-way through my sweep of the building after the alarm went off when you guys came in!"
A vet with mental health issues. I know he broke the law, but my heart goes out to him. My father is a marine and was in Vietnam and was in Cuba during the Cuban missile crisis and it really affected him as it did many men. My heart felt sorrows for this man and all of our vets/military/police dealing with mental health issues.
@@benny6466 isn’t it funny how keyboard warriors can sit around saying shit like this when no doubt they never served a day in their lives! I mean, sitting around online was the much better alternative. I totally get it.
@@megadong2398 I encourage you to do your homework before you troll! I mean, are you so ignorant to go look up the information to see exactly who was there in 1962
I accidentally got locked inside my school after falling asleep in the lunchroom after an after-school class and the substitute teacher forgot about me. I knew enough because I was taught to, to try and use the phone in the principal's office, but I didn't know how to use the numbers to dial out of the school so me trying to call home didn't work. One of the security guards found me wandering around the school when he came on duty for the night patrol. I think the teacher must have got fired because there wasnt any more after school classes for anyone after that.
did you watch the same video? Dude got read his miranda rights, knew what they were, voiced that he was being detained, asked to speak with his lawyer, and claimed his innocence. He may have been having some kind of mental episode but he sure a fuck knew everything that was going on.
Coming from the spouse of a war time veteran with ptsd. This level of mental illness from a vet is the best you could hope for. He seems so chill and non violent, as well as polite and truthful(in his head atleast) I wish him the best and wanna give him a hug so bad.
For real...I live outside of fort drum. Some vets go nuts, shoot their their wives and shit. I went to my buddies house after work one night and his vet neighbor pointed a 12 gauge on me and was ranting and raving about something and I had to calm him down.
Extremely common symptoms of mental illness. His detachment from what is going on is really sad, and knowing he is a veteran is heart breaking. I’m a veteran, a person with mental health issues, and now a person with a psych degree. I got said degree due to what this video shows. Instead of putting this man down, calling him names, etc, you all should show grace to other humans walking the planet. It doesn’t hurt to be nice.
If this guy has been Baker Acted 10+ times? He needs to be locked up in a psych ward and getting treatment, not out on the streets. He doesn't seem particularly dangerous, but would you want to take that chance with your family working in that museum when they came in and surprised him?
that is actually impressive, that's a super legit Museum that seems like they'd have 'mission impossible' level security these days. Did you go in when it was open & stay til after close, or get in while it was closed?
He's an ex vet and having a manic episode. The mental health system has failed him repeatedly. That officer doing the crazy gesture is unprofessional and cruel. The door was open... and so were all the administrative offices...
Look regardless of the sympathy we may feel for the guy, he was having a mental episode and talking to no one in particular as well as talking about random incoherent topics. I'm surprised they were as gentle as they were. They generally tried to be kind and responsive even when the could have been otherwise.
Honestly, whoop-dee-shit, someone spends 4 years in a military job, more often times than not with 0 combat experience, and all of the sudden they're entitled to a protected status that turns everything against them as an injustice or a call for sympathy? Cops do just as much for this country on a daily basis, and whatever to the hand gesture, dealing with people like that is not easy. Do you think Military personnel stationed overseas are perfectly polite to the locals? Get real.
there are plenty of mental health resources, he could have gotten help a while ago, its still his responsibility. We can have all the systems in place, but you cant force someone to want to get help.
I used to volunteer and intern at this museum, I'm not surprised that a door was left unlocked. During the day a lot of those side doors were opened and closed by staff going in and out. With the public beach right next door, the fact that the alarm didn't alert the police to the building despite having millions of dollars worth of cars, motorcycles, and other stuff does surprise me.
If the management were any good they'd have simply installed an Automatic Access Control System (AACS) with token access for staff members a long time ago.
Hold on, so this guy: 1) Walked in an unlocked door, setting off no alarms, 2) Entered unlocked administrative areas, setting off no alarms, 3) Wandered the museum floor, setting off no alarms, 4) *Took valuable items* setting off no alarms, ... and *didn't leave* with probably tens, maybe hundreds of dollars in valuables? Worst. Burglar. Ever.
This is the best police cam channel ever. I love how you give all of the follow-up info. It is such a shame that he's experiencing this and our mental health system sucks.
...he was mentioned as a veteran...I knew a man like him who had done 3 deployments and was involved in some of the most brutal urban warfare in the Middle East and had lost 2 friends in the fighting...he so wanted to have friends and someone to talk to, but the VA kept shoving pills in his chest for him to take instead of doing the right thing and it cooked him up some...he would offset the effects of the VA drugs with crack and would get paranoid....I know that he ended up getting reconnected with his family and I pray that this man in the video is able to fully heal...from his conversation on yoga and spiritual feeling, I can tell he sought out answers...I pray he gets them🙏❤
You can't assume that. Often, military members are separated from service fairly quickly, before they see any action, due to emerging mental nealth issues, plus there are many military occupation specialties that aren't combat related.
@@evelynwaugh4053 and you also have the group of vets that were discharged for doing stupid things on the military and people want us to treat them all equally. Like if you’re not making it after service then you most likely weren’t going anywhere with your life anyways.
This looks more like a bipolar manic episode, which is not something typically caused by trauma. That said, since he's a vet, I'd like to see him getting treatment from the VA, because meds would very likely help him.
"He's a veteran, someone who served our country with dedication. Regardless of anyone's background, mental health concerns deserve attention and respectful treatment by authorities. We can criticize actions without disrespecting individuals. Many wouldn't consider military service, but that shouldn't diminish anyone's struggles. Let's focus on understanding and empathy instead of personal attacks.
Facts. They shouldn’t arrest him. He needs to be in a place where people care about him and his health. A safe place that doesn’t make him lose his mind. I feel really bad for people like this. Not just mental health issues like everyone has now a days. But literally autism/mental retardation. Idk if this guy could be classified as that. But the cops did a pretty good job with this guy. Just dont want to see him put in a cop car. Or in jail where he will be bullied.
12:15 “My football number in high school, 58…I told my dad it was 88 cuz the guy was Hitler and stuff, and he’s like “wasn’t it 58?” And I’m like, damn you’re good.” This is turning into Goonies when Chunk is being interrogated by the robbers and telling them “everything”…😂😂😂
“Then my mom sent me to the summer camp for fat kids and then once during lunch I got nuts and I pigged out and they kicked me out... But the worst thing I ever done - I mixed all this fake puke at home and then I went to this movie theater, hid the puke in my jacket, climbed up to the balcony and then... then, I made a noise like this: hua-hua-hua-huaaaaaaa - and then I dumped it over the side, all over the people in the audience. And then, this was horrible, all the people started getting sick and throwing up all over each other. I never felt so bad in my entire life.”
Hearing he was a veteran who has been baker acted so many times absolutely breaks my heart. We send our people to war to lose their minds then throw them away when they come home. And worse, if they have PTSD and lose their sh1t, we send them to jail. This was so sad to see.
I hope he gets the help he truly needs. Idk. Seems like a really chill guy, but he’s a vet, and deserves the after care that so many never receive. I wish him the best. Thank you for your service, sir. ❤

Crazy what people are doing nowadays. Who comes up with these kinds of ideas just randomly??? 😭
The Mad Hatter meets Night at the Museum lol. "Still haven't learned the proper way to stretch but there's this thing I heard about, yoga, you ever heard of it?"
There's good and bad in every situation. It's bad that this dude broke in so easily, but it's good that the museum now knows their security is pretty trash and needs an upgrade fast.
Poor guy is kinda likeable, and he's a veteran that served this country so I can't imagine what he's seen that made him lose it. I sure hope he gets the help he needs, but more likely they will just dump him back out on the street and give the housing and health care he deserves to some illegal.
I’m a veteran and there’s plenty of housing programs and health care available to us. Immigration is totally unrelated, comes from a different budget, and has zero effect on veterans benefits availability.
Jason happens to be my son. He is a 100% disabled veteran due to mental illness. He has been in and out of mental facilities for the past eight years never getting the long term mental healthcare he really needs. Had the door not been opened he would never have broken in. When the officers realize he had a mental issue, they should not have arrested him, but Baker acted him and sent him to a psychiatric facility for help. he is not a criminal. Just someone who served his country proudly and is now dealing with issues resulting from experiences he had while serving his country. Have some compassion.
@@cbowvboPost videos of him on your youtube since he's your son. Surely a parent has some videos of their children. Clearly you wouldn't lie on a youtube comment?
My paternal grandfather was a dentist and the Elliot Museum has some of his old equipment, dentures & stuff like that in there. It used to be a small building and now it’s a proper Museam. Really cool to see. I’ll have to go visit as I haven’t been there in four decades.
Way over-reacting, almost cringeworthy, you can tell she thrives for attention and told everybody on her Facebook friends list that she had a near-death experience at work and someone with a sword tried to stab her
Got locked in clinic a few years back as last patient. Stuck in lobby with no way out. Luckily i had my cell phone with me and called the afterhours number, they sent some back to let me out, very apologetic. I was so scared some silent alarms were gonna go off and police showing up thinking i broke in. Being a senior it was pretty scary. Guess they got lucky i wasnt after drugs, just wanted to go home.
She seems competent, and friendly. Once the immediate danger had passed, she seemed very patient and calm. Experience and character is a valuable resource.
