Towing A Police Officer In Gatlinburg | Irate Couple Shows Their True Colors 

I am a retired police officer. Guys like that are embarassing. You keep doing what you are doing. My motto always was the following: The answer to anyone else's bad behavior... is NEVER your own bad behavior. Love the channel!

saying "I'm gonna get my truck back one way or another." can be taken as a threat, and that ring tone is a crime against humanity

"I'll get my truck one way or another" speaks volumes about how he conducts him self being in a position of power.

have never heard such a clear butt dial in my life! Glad I saw the update first so I know the outcome.

It's a shame that a police officer is so racist! You held your composure well

Jeff you are a very respectable person. You calmness and professionalism is what we need more of in society. That man and his wife need to realize his badge doesn't give them privilege or make them superior. I know many officers and he is the type that gives them a bad rep. If you ain't paying your vehicle ain't staying. Figured that out my first time in Gaitlinburg. Keep the content coming.

Y’all handle things very professional. Thanks for being a great road warrior! Had a great time watching and thanks for letting us tag along!!

You're a good man for calling them out on the racism!

No matter how many times I see a tow truck operator in action I'm always like "damn he got that up quick" Kudos on dealing with that guy the way y'all did.

Hey Jeff I just want to take a moment to thank you and your wife and your daughter and son for all the great work on your towing videos I absolutely enjoy your content I have been watching for a couple of months and just now decided to become a member you guys do such great work thanks again

Sickening, ugh. 2 scummy, racist, ignorant people who were meant for each other. Kudos to you for handling it like a professional and not engaging in their ignorance. Keep up the great work!

Jeff, it reminded me of what dolly parton’s dad taught her, when she was a little girl if u can’t say anything nice about someone keep u mouth shut 🤐, he was definitely out of line I admire how u handle him. My wife and I will be spending next week in Gatlinburg hopefully we a least see u go by in ur wrecker. Thanks for another great 👍🏻 video. From Kentucky

I have been coming to Gatlinburg for 27 years and I always pay to park because I have common sense . Those people felt privileged

I know this guy personally. I use to work with this guy. And he USE to to be an officer. After watching this I'm so glad he isn't anymore.

I'm getting sick of hearing the "one bad apple" nonsense when I'm not seeing any good apples in the barrels anymore. The casual racism of both the officer and his wife were deplorable.

I JUST FOUND YOUR CHANNEl a few days ago.❤ I'M astounded as to how impartial you are. Your self control, impressive. Thank for being such a great example of what a man's CHARACTER should be. No one is perfect but striving to do your best is good enough. I have my 16 year old grandson watching you as well. Thanks, I appreciate you both. ❤from California ❤

Man you are awesome dealing with these people. I wonder if this man gives people he pulls over a break. I believe he puts a black eye to the police force that he is part of. Yall just good people and keep up the good work.

I'm new to your channel and was watching this video from about a year ago. Thank you for picking up on, and calling out that cop's blatant racism 👏🏾.

Why do police officers expect special treatment? Because when they’re doing their job, they’re brutal to citizens offering no slack. If anything they go on a fishing expedition to look for more charges. But they expect special treatment. This is one of the major problems we have with police officers in this country.

There are reports on March 18 that this guy is not currently employed as a Law Enforcement Officer. So it appears his comment that "I am a police officer" was a lie. He used to a be a police officer....10 YEARS AGO. "A man who tried to get out of paying for a tow by claiming to be an Augusta law enforcement officer and then making racist remarks is not currently employed by the department, according to the Richmond County Sheriff's Office." "A Richmond County Sheriff's Office spokesman confirmed the man in the video was employed by the department more than 10 years ago but said he is not currently working for the department." " I was disturbed by the comments - it’s not something we would tolerate from any active duty people that work here." Internal Affairs Sgt. William McCarty said. "We have no jurisdiction in Gatlinburg, but he’s falsely impersonating a police officer and if that’s something they wanted to pursue they could."

Guy has a $60,000 pick up and can’t park like the rest of the people then acts like a ass when he gets towed. If he worked for me he would be fired . Tells you a lot about his personality and that he should not be in law enforcement. Whether it is a issue of non payment or parking somewhere you are not allowed own it and politely apologize ,pay the ticket and tow and learn your lesson.

I live 30 minutes from Gatlinburg. It can be difficult to find a parking spot close to the strip. But if you will walk a few blocks there are 2 large lots.

Reminds me of when I was a security guard. It was a shopping center right next to the beach. People would always try to use our lot for free parking. I felt bad for calling it in, but at the same time most people knew exactly what they were doing wrong, and would literally just leave most times I even attempted to advise them...

Unreal. Thanks for all you do Jeff. Stay safe

Any cop caught parking in the wrong spot needs to be charged double every time

He did not want to pay the ATM fees??? What a bad example for the police. No raise for him!

This video needs to be sent to his supervisor and see how that goes over for him.

Kudos to you brother. You did MUCH better than I would have with that officer and his wife. As soon as the ignorance started pouring out of their mouths I would have kicked them off my property.

Karen's face most definitely thinks it's your fault, lol. And they're so entitled, you'd think they're the only tourists who ever visit, lol. I wish I had your patience.

Hopefully people of Gatlinburg will pull together and do something about this guy, It's the good name of Gatlinburg that is being tarnished by Him, he needs to be taught a lesson. He should no longer be serving in the police. Oh, PAY TO PARK!! Best wishes from Scotland. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

The funny part is, as a police officer, he would say the same thing you did to him if the tables were turned. Great way to handle the guy. He blatantly lied and both he and his wife twisted the story even though they knew exactly what was going on. Both the husband and wife were acting like they were entitled and everyone else was at fault except them. The negative racist attitude was really awful. So I wonder if the Augusta, Georgia police department will see this. He needs some retraining. The rudeness and disrespect based on their perception of race was disgusting.

“Police discount?” “Nope.” Liked and subscribed

As a police officer I notice the sky is blue.... note: I am not a police officer.

WOW so professional. Thank you for representing the towing operators in a great way. 25 years in the business as a operator for a couple companies in Tacoma,WA.. I just totally respect your attitude and work ethics. Subbed and Liked.

Guys racism doesn't exist in America anymore lol. Yeesh.

They don't get it... Being a officer of the LAW means you are held to a higher standard than a civilian, they are expected the KNOW the law and more of them simply for the fact they are the ones that enforce the LAW, it's so sickening to think that they can have "Qualified Immunity" and get away with whatever they want thanks to the "blue wall". Any cop worth their salt should report and hold accountable those POS's that think their above the law. and that should be the bottom line

The cop being racist knowing he is being audio video recorded tells alot.

Just watched this video you handled it well. What he did and said was so wrong. Maybe his chief needs to see that. Thanks so much we enjoy your videos. Take care and stay safe

Well it seems that his butt dialing showed what a butt head he really is.. I hate to say it but some of the Cops and people in an authority position are the worst offenders when it comes to racism. His wife looked like she could chew up a cord of hard wood and spit out a pile of sawdust. YIKES!... Jeff and Kristin you two are always respectful and kind to everybody and for that I have a lot of respect for you two. 👍

I want to thank you for the adult content warning. What you are doing should be the standard for RU-vid. My kids are reaching teenage years, so I know they hear bad language from some peers at school, but there was an instance several years ago when they were very young... I was watching a metal detecting video which I thought should be quite tame... My kids were in the room and the video started and the man making the video had a sailor's mouth. F'in this MF'in that, SOB, etc. I was caught off guard and was very angry. So, from a father that loves his kids, thanks for how you conduct your videos. You sir, are a class act.

VERY well handled on your part. Very poor on their part. He's one of the reasons police get all the hate they do. Thank you for being a good person & having integrity. ❤

I've dealt with criminals that have better manners than some of these cops. Tell a poorly behaved idiot he's special long enough and they'll start to believe it.

That “cop’s” language was disgusting. Thank you for blocking out what you could.

We don't police officer like that law does not apply to him

These people weren’t irate. They were annoyed, but far from irate.

This cop is even if he’s off duty perfect example of why we need to defund these departments, and find a better way.

Hopefully someone in Augusta GA sees this. No one deserves to be treated like that.

Cop that demands a discount, lies about seeing a sign, brings race into his complaint, and his wife who brings up how the staff dont speak English... Speaks volumes about them.

Never thought towing would be so great to watch. and Jeff and his wife are lovely people. all the best guys Paul in the UK 🇬🇧

Don't ever apologize for doing your job! Cops throw around the fact that they "have" to arrest you, their just doing their job. Well, so are you!!😊

Those darn “some lady’s” always giving bad advice!

You would think a police officer Would try to watch his language My goodness dude sounds like a criminal Not a police officer

He said he left and came back and there were still no parking spots I think he's a liar

Let this be a wake up call to the officer and his wife after seeing and hearing themselves being caught trying to be above the law, lying, being rude, and being racist. Doesn’t matter who you are where you’re from, etc. No wonder law-enforcement are getting/have a bad reputation it’s because of officers thinking they’re above law, start lying to get their way and thinking they can get away with racist remarks. It’s sad that the officer and wife are bad apples.

"I even asked some lady and she didn't speak good English"

Dude was worried about a $3 ATM fee, lmao. Maybe he should drive a chaeper truck if he's worried about ATM fees.

Hopefully this video will get back to his dept. & they will deal with it. Or the local news in that area will pick it up.

I’m so surprised that a cop would be married to a Karen. They are trying every excuse and even testing the waters of white privilege. Tow truck driver handled it like a champion.

When she says that she thought it was church parking, I'm surprised God did not strike her dead. She is obviously lying. Have you ever been to a church where there is assigned and numbered parking? I don't want to say that it is 100% impossible, but it is 99.999% impossible. Why would a church have numbered assigned parking spots?

Not all liars are cops, but all cops........

Now the cop knows how we feel when we don’t get special treatment.

Yeah him being a cop and being racist it’s a clear view of how he police’s

Blaming the foreigners but the signs are in English 🤨🤨

that guy "SAID" he was a police officer, that may be a part of his BS also

Another cop who thinks he's entitled to break the rules.

I do not believe that the cop butt dialed anyone he was simply laying his groundwork for a crooked case

And if it was anyone else, the cop would say “ignorance is no excuse!”

Accepting favors completely goes against ethics in law enforcement. Any cop that expects special treatment based solely on their occupation is a corrupt cop.

UPDATE: The man in this video has been identified by internal affairs and is NOT currently an officer in the state of Georgia. The sheriffs department is aware of the situation as it stands currently. We will be posting an update video here shortly. Thanks for tagging along! Link to the update video: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-KUgSusbQhcE.html

Its crazy when people drop racist remarks around people they dont know assuming they feel the same way....

This officer revealed his true self and he is a danger to his community. The threat and justification is somthing he would never accept from someone he towed. Took an oath, given respect and the ability to take human life but unable to crawl out of his play pen and behave like that responsibility means anything to him.

He is the reason police get a bad name. You did nothing wrong! You keep being honest Jeff we do appreciate you . Rick

Bro bravo to you, as a business owner you have no idea how well this makes you look. No jumping in on the bandwagon, but de escalating and keeping him moving along. Tip of the hat to you.

I have got to defend Country Inn and Suites. None of the staff would tell that liar to park in the numbered spaces. We have stayed there many years and been warned every time not to park there. The staff are great hard working people I have never noticed what color they are. Everything Autos did a great job handling this situation.

Wow! Just wow! I can’t believe he’s a cop and talk like that given that he’s from Georgia even. You’re right everyone has to make a living. He just flat out lied to you and would arrest someone for the same thing. Not cool dude! Great video Jeff as always!

“I’ll get my truck one way or the other”. I love the calm in control response “OK”. I snickered out loud.

Type of cop who believes that wearing a badge gives him free coffee and donuts at Dunkin donuts for life.

I am a wrecker operator in Arkansas and deal with very similar situations. Good job man for staying professional! I know it’s hard to stay professional with irate customers but it’s part of the job and in my opinion you done a great job!

Amen!!! Thank you for treating this couple with the same level of professionalism and respect you would provide anyone else! It speaks volumes about your character and how you run your business. Cop or con, if you choose to ignore the rules you pay for rolling the dice!

You did an amazing job handling this guy! He is the reason so many police officers 👮‍♀️ get bad names! We do not need people like him as police officers. Integrity and intelligence should be displayed at all times, not just when people are watching. Thanks for the warning for the language, it helps! We hope to one day meet you while we are in the area! Take care!! Give the puppy doggies a treat from us!

Imagine being a minority in front of that guy “cop”. Trying to explain the exact same situation to him, but being a minority…..what a pos

You handled them great. Yes a police officer should never act like that. As my great grandmother would say it only takes one bad apple to ruin the barrel. You do a wonderful job and are the calmest when people act like this. Enjoy your videos!!

I like the way you videotape everything, that is very smart if the person who was towed tries to blame you guys for damages or whatever. You make a great team!!!!

As a police officer he thinks he’s privilege good job Jeff

People will show their true colors when they feel free to do so, I respect you sir!

Thank you for making sure to record his comments during that butt dial! I'd find out what department he was with and make sure to let them know how he was acting while trying to get discounts for his mistakes. Also, thanks for that little jingle and dancing of the camera. Got a good chuckle out of it!

As a (retired) LEO, this saddens me to see such a disregard for the law, then add a racial remark. "Black ass" isn't the issue. It's the way/context he used it that made it racial. Unacceptable. He better hope someone doesn't call the employing agency. Y'all just pray for this man. Thank you Jeff for being such an upstanding guy!!

I bet if you were in Augusta this cop would abuse his power and cause you real trouble. He seems very unqualified to be a cop and gives the good ones a bad name.

You're professionalism and the way you handle heated situations are superb sir. I'm sorry you and your wife have to deal with difficult people all the time. Great job! Love your videos 👏👏👏👏

I was furious listening to this man….regardless of his profession get over the race issue. He is the one who made the mistake of parking where he wasn’t supposed to and then acted crazy. If people would quit blaming others for their mistakes, you made the mistake….own it and move on!

I like how he “casually” drops that he’s a cop several times trying to get special treatment.

And people wonder why certain people have a hard time trusting those who are supposed to protect and serve.. prime example of why! Love your work bud. Keep on keeping on! ✌️❤😊

"You don't take cards? Well, that shit ain't happening and one way or the other I'm gonna get my truck." Yeah, OK, Jethro.

If I ever get towed I want a tow business owner like you. Your character, integrity and sincere heart are great traits to possess but more than that you are a great human being! That couple especially the public servant should be ashamed. Thank you for calling out the blatant racism.

Makes me feel good to see someone call someone out for racist actions .... no matter what the situation they bring race into the picture .....when actually race ..the color of our skin ,,,country we are from...or our nationality ......changes nothing about what we're trying to resolve ! ...We'll never make it through those pearly gates ppl ...with a heart filled with hate !!!

I’m so glad you pointed out the racism too many people today cover for idiots like that daily…. You definitely earned a subscriber off that alone

the cop's supervisor needs to see this video-and on his hometown news needs to show it-you just know that he is the kind of cop that thinks he will do whatever to whoever he wants to

17:12 notice how she walks away when he mentions being a police officer 😂

I appreciate you speaking up at the end. I am Southern and I heard a lot of racism growing up, (even within my extended family.) My parents didn't allow that in our household, and taught us that we are all equal in the eyes of God - black, white, cop, non-cop, rich, poor, etc. My daddy grew up in Sevierville, so I spent many a day in that area, and I know there are still people around that may not speak up. You have character my friend. Good for you. I wish that more modern Southern Men, would read the bible (or the golden rule) more than they claim to. Times they are a changin'

I really appreciate your integrity and ability to stay professional. It’s truly disappointing that a police officer would speak of other humans just doing their job that way. I have a lot of respect for you bc ik towing can be a rough industry
