BRUH I SAY THIS EVERY TIME. Man gets accused. Cop does something wrong or lone ranger style. Police department then released a statement "after further investigation OHH LOOK A BUTTERFLY....our guy did nothing wrong and went based upon his situation."
true, but in some situations, they kind of really have to handcuff first and then check the ID and 5 minutes later you're free to go. I'm not saying that all of these clips were like that, but sometimes they're looking for very dangerous people and they can't take any risks.
I feel like whatever they do to an innocent person that person should have the right to do to them like the first video those deserve to be roughed up and tazed
Cop in the 3rd clip is how all cops should handle these situations. He was cautious but also polite and calm, he did not jump to conclusions or automatically assume the guy he was talking to was the person he was looking for.
The cop in the third clip polished a turd and gave him lip service to excuse his behavior, that's why he blamed his sergeant for instructing him to detain the man. Don't be fooled by politically correct vernacular and a carefully choreographed activity designed to look harmless. Just because someone isn't slamming you to the ground screaming "Get on the ground Ni**er" doesn't mean that it's not a racially motivated act, and the same goes in reverse. Political correctness just hides the truth from plain sight. "Sir, please stop where you are, you are being detained for an ongoing police investigation. You match the description of a suspect, we need to confirm your identity and that you are not the individual we're looking for." It's that simple. The whole interaction about how they don't think it's him, but circumstances are whatever... That just makes the cops look unprofessional and shady af! Just be straight to the point, professional, and respectful. Patronizing people isn't respectful.
@@broobit7540Hopefully he’s NOT seeing how Patrick was NEVER even asked for an ID. Those POS cops were on a power trip and didn’t even follow proper protocol with the first being them properly identifying a person of interest.
"All you had to do was give me ID!"... well I am glad we have footage, because they never asked for ID. That is wild to me. Of course I am going to resist when you are UNLAWFULLY arresting me, and using a taser on me. Also, absolutely horrible that he was about to lose his LIFE all because of their mistake. Getting kicked out of school, and losing his job, just because they didn't ask for ID, and escalated the situation.
you're a little kid who watches little kid baby videos... don't come in here with your nonsense of "I'm going to resist" when you just learned how to dress yourself 🤦♂
And considering he was in his yard and they failed to properly identify who they’re suspect was, failed to ask for ID, homeowners should be able to pop them. That’s trespassing and gang mentality. They were every bit of a threat
Simple: Put the police officer in front of a jury, have them decide whether or not to proceed to a real trial, and what charges should be in that trial.
Very funny coincidence for a scary situation. I looked it up and it's a body builder gym. HEEIST stands for: Helping Everyone Experience Inner Strength Together.
Thats not why she said that, apparently a guy driving the same looking car drove away from them during a stop or something like that. So she thought it was him
So you're trying to tell me that Internal Affairs officers are not the same as a regular police officer. if I remember correctly they take the same oath as a regular police officer and they should be held accountable for their actions as well.
This makes my blood boil. I was falsely arrested and charged for controlled substance once. Internal affairs is a damn joke, how about external affairs??? Situations like these will make you look at things from a different perspective
“We investigated ourselves and found we did nothing wrong end of story” like what a fucking wild way to look into misconduct of any kind. That’s like me murdering someone and then I get to look into myself as a suspect and say ‘I investigated myself and found that I did not kill anyone’ and that gets accepted as fact just because I said so, even though I’m covered in blood, wearing a tshirt that says ‘I’m a murderer,’ and I have a body in my trunk. It’s the most bizarre, nonsensical thing ever. Internal investigations are useless.
I’m glad the interaction with Joseph Griffin was just a “we need to double check to make sure” mix up and not a “it’s 100% you, put your hands in the air” mix up. Edit: Holy moly 68 likes on this comment? I was not expecting that! Thanks!
14:56 If they truly suspected he was their shooter, sticking his face right up to the cracked window of an unruly suspect you believe to be armed with a gun is either brazen or straight up stupidity…
@@calvin6314 That would work.... Instead of being harrassed by 4 P.O.s, he'd end up with 12 P.O.s harrassing him as they'd all be from the same station.
He escalated the situation by being uncooperative and trying to get in the car and drive away. The police were wrong but i dont think they were being malicious - they had limited information and were trying to get more information from the guy. If both parties were willing to work together they would have quickly found out he wasn't the guy they were looking for. Police and criminals are people all the same, nobody is perfect. The general mistrust of both police AND felons does not lend to productive interactions between the two. At least no one was seriously hurt, and the system worked in this case because he was compensated handsomely.

@@pierrettelaf9728maybe some suspects or smt has identical twins but ill doubt that’ll be a coincidence. They should at least look at their ids cause some people look the same. Honestly the cops should get fired and arrested for assault and false accusations. My opinion 🤷♀️
When they arrest the wrong person, and or do an unlawful arrest, for most of those victims it’s most likely never to trust an officer again, period…. Way to go!
It's insane that even after they find out that they're wrong they never sincerely apologize to the innocent party and in some cases they even go as far as to steal attempt to arrest a person even though they've done nothing wrong just to cover their own asses. This literally makes it hard for people to trust law enforcement.
I think most people would even look the other way if the cops were more emphatic and did their best to make up for their false accusations or poor policing. In a lot of cases, the cops are like, "oh well, yeah, we got the wrong person, but if you didn't do such and such, we wouldn't have had to act this way." In reality, anyone being threatened with incarceration or faced with being implicated is going to have a natural reaction to defend themselves. It's like a human reaction to feel threatened and want to shell up and avoid being victimized. So basically, if the police hadn't provoked people, they wouldn't be in the siltation to begin with.
Ppl should never trust the govt. The police act like tyrannical rulers when their money comes from the public as a fundamental understanding that they work for ppl. The lack of human decency is so gross. If the govt. makes a mistake, they should treat you like they committed a crime. False imprisonment is a crime. So is making false police report. Qualified immunity is too much for them.
@@phillipmoses2513no, not anybody. I mean defend yourself with words yes but a natural reaction to resist arrest isnt true... my dad went to jail and hes almost racist himself with his view of caucasian people, but while the cop was arresting him he did everything the cop said while speaking to defend himself rather than acting like the guy in the 1st video as a natural reaction. Would have been mine too, to think fighting with police officers, especially with my skin color, is a natural reaction? Thats dangerous man, id get that checked because you have a family you need to go home to and protect. Thats not a natural reaction, it doesnt make sense to put yourself in more danger when scared, it makes sense to do the opposite. Its only a natural reaction 100% of the time if youre guilty of something because only then are you in danger.
I respect the way the cop at 6:39 handled things. I've been falsely arrested I was getting on the bus and a few feet away the cops stop the bus and pulled me off saying there was a guy fleeing the scene of a car accident matching my description, I told them there were people who saw me on my skateboard leaving my neighborhood they didn't bother checking my witnesses nor the license plate that would have shown I didn't own the vehicle also I had a bus pass but they didn't believe me held me for a couple of days.

(Idk their last names, so I'm gonna use their first names.) If you're talking about the cops in the video, a few of them are actually not corrupt cops. One of the cops handled the situation very well, the one with the burglary thingy. The sedan the friends were in for the attempted robbery part, the cop was somewhat right somewhat wrong. Cops only get a little information before they are dispatched. It looks like both of Mr.Aaron's friends were white, and it DID say that there was a black and white suspect, so the cop did have a legitimate excuse of not stopping Mr.Aaron's buddies. But the rest of them did NOT have an legitimate excuse to why the did their actions, so they should be sued.
@@victorious2863 You don't know they're not Corrupt Cops. You're not by their Side 24/7. When a Cop does something Wrong and the Other cops do nothing about it, they too are guilty! And every cop is Corrupt. If they don't do what they're told, they will lose their job. So they either do it or they're fired or they quit. Any cop who's been on the force for a while has definitely done enough to be considered Corrupt.
you are so smart bro holy fuck "This statement has not been found in Thomas Jefferson's writings, although it captures some of the ideas that Jefferson expressed in the Declaration of Independence,"
Well they didnt have the full description of the suspect. Only details were white tank top, shorts, beard and of african-american descent. Once they received the picture through the cctv of the suspect, they were able to identify that they clearly had the wrong guy. It wasn't wrong for the officers to have some suspicion since they didnt have enough details.

Correct translation: He's highly uncooperative with me. Seriously, the cops were just doing their jobs in that one.

@@milolomi9600 They were searching for a suspect after an attempted homicide. That's obviously a serious crime where the police would be expected to leave no stone unturned. Not just give up and let a potential suspect go because he doesn't think they should suspect him.

Hence, uncooperative.

That is a insane thing to say when you think about it. “He has every right to exercise his right to refuse to id himself but it isn’t always the best idea”. We are heading towards a world where you either get your rights violated or risk being killed for exercising them.
I think that's a perfectly reasonable statement. We have many rights - you can walk up to someone and shout profanities at them, you can flip someone off and insult their mother, their religion and their livelihood. Doesn't mean these are good ideas. I get your point though. However, choosing not to ID himself risks the possibility of escalating the situation - which it did. You have the right to refuse that, but you also have to accept that it's not going to make the situation any better.

@@Vittrich I don't have a problem with being detained, but ARREST? As in being thrown in a cell and facing charges you know nothing about? People lose their jobs, and some get sodomized or even assaulted, among all sorts of things that can happen to you in jail. Of course, I will not physically resist, but to expect me to calmly comply is unreasonable. Imagine right now someone knocks on your door to arrest you, right NOW!! Will you stand up and say okay, officer, here I am; you are welcome to F me over? That's why I understand those who resist physically, the law is flawed and being abused. There's a case of a cop who went and arrested his ex just to get back at her for dumping him and lied that she was mentally ill. She was detained in a mental facility for 5 days only for doctors to clear her...but she has ALREADY been subjected to the abuse. Who knows what effect that has on her private life and health? For how long? Will her employer lose confidence in her, seeing as this important law enforcement officer says she's got mental issues??? The trauma? No man!!

Its funny how that one cop said "other people wouldn't have been as cooperative" as joseph was, completely disregarding that most cops wouldn't begin the interaction that politely
The fact that he's cuffed, pinned and bent over, while the officer is '' scolding " him is Crazy. That means the officer had a choice to hold him like that even after knowing he isn't the person they are looking for.
😢😢😢 As a Black person, it is a sickening feeling to be pulled over by the police. At any time, we could lose our lives. Hour lives on literally in their hand.😢😢😢😢
We all could. I had cops trying their hardest to arrest me, all because my friend I gave a ride to earlier smelled like weed. Apparently, smelling like weed isn't even reasonable suspicion to be searched. They were going around trying to make up reasons to stop people. After harassing me and finding nothing, they still acted like I was a criminal. 😂 they literally should not want to have to arrest you or shoot you, but some seem to want to do just that.
Is that really true though? There care cases where that does happen (including to white people but those are on youtube footage, just not spread by media), but is it not pretty rare if the person does not resist or appear to be drawing a gun? When measured per police interaction vs race (prob the most accurate way i can think of), the stats don't back up the popular attitude as far as i know (source: social researcher Heather Macdonald, MAYBE Coleman Hughes idk he may know too it is partly his field and he is not an ideologue......???). With bodycam, they are in trouble if they mess up badly and they know it. Maybe a bit more common if your black & male, simply bc black people as a group, & all male as a group people both have higher crime rates and thus higher numbers of police interactions. It is not sexist etc to state the facts, though it is fair enough to argue what the facts are, based on have the data can be interpreted.
Same thing I said. I'm sitting there in my head like, "That's a hatchback!" I'm not even a cop, and I could tell Aaron's car didn't match the description, based on the fact that it wasn't even a sedan. I wish Aaron would've called them on that so I could hear their reaction.
Not really so shocking evil takes the form of police officers, they are also doctors, nurses, teachers, parents, pastors, firefighters, politicians, veterinarians, kids, business owners, family members, etc etc, I think my point is obvious. That’s why I’m trying not to be surprised by these videos anymore. The devil is everywhere, we must remember this. No one is exempt. It’s hard to face reality. 😞
Never thought I'd say this, but the FLORIDA cops look like they handled things pretty darn well. They were polite. They explained what they were doing and why they were doing it. They talked to the man like he was a person. They apologized at length for the inconvenience. They didn't take offense that he was nervous or that he was recording them as any sort of challenge. He was understandably nervous but they did everything they could within the bounds of their station to assure him that as long as he wasn't the suspect they were looking for he would be fine and when they let him go they debriefed him and explained that he was stopped because of how little information they were given to him. If more police were like this all the time we wouldn't have ACAB.
yeah, well I don't want to say he's stupid but yeah that's an stupid act of him he could have been cooperative and it would have been a calm and smooth situation just identify your self if you're not guilty as simple as that
“I don’t know if you got a warrant because you’re not who I’m looking for.” Meanwhile….. “You’ve got a warrant dude.” I feel like I’m not even allowed to be surprised anymore. All I can say is wow.
I've watched a lot of bodycams and this is an example why all cops should wear them. It goes to show that the cops didn't even bother to verify his identity and decided to arrest him on the spot. Patrick already got his settlement but it's stupid due to the fact that he has a non-violent first offense charge on him. Maybe the cops should learn for decent cops who ask for identification and verify if it is the right person, not straight up arrest an innocent person.
Eye witnesses are often quite terrible at identifying the correct person involved in a crime. It's so bad that we should probably never be arresting anyone based on such evidence. Perhaps with 2 or 3 or more eye witnesses things would be different, but never one.
Yes the trauma of being tased for doing nothing is worth 100k. Maybe if you saw that happen to your mother or child you would feel differently. Money is not a substitute for being treated like a human being.
Honestly, there was no other perfect way to handle that situation with Joseph. Everyone was pretty chill cause no one jumped to conclusions. They were honest and transparent, explained that he matched a description but are not accusing him. They were also sincere and showed that they know that it sucks having to hold the man there until they confirmed that it wasn't him, yeah it sucks and its a really crappy situation. And respect to Joseph for keeping calm and understanding the situation he was in, no one can blame him for being anxious/nervous, it's scary but he cooperated and everything went smoothly. This is the best outcome in a scenario like this, great job on all sides.
Are you done? They just presumed it was their suspect. Easiest way to not escalate the situation was to ask for an ID and match it to their supposed warrant.
