The RIGHT Way to Handle a Police Stop

Before asking "If you have nothing to hide, why refuse?" Read this. http://wreg.com/2013/01/03/mid-south-...

A challenge to anyone who thinks this is "bad advice." Find a law firm or defense attorney's website that advises you to consent to searches and answer questions. Just post the attorney's name or law firm in your comment.

Before you comment, I suggesting reading AZ v Gant. If you want to tell how the cops in your area are badass and this would never work with them, just save it, it'll be deleted.

I'd suggest reading Arizona v. Gant before making any comments.

**THIS IS NOT A VIDEO ON HOW TO BEAT A SPEEDING TICKET. IT IS HOW TO REFUSE A SEARCH.**
In this video reenactment, some college students are stopped by a police officer. The driver exercises his constitutional rights and goes on about his way.

Check out my other videos to see what could have happened if he waived his rights.

Could the officer's threat to throw the driver and his male friend in a jail with "some bad men who would love to do something bad to your skinny ass" be construed as a threat? How about the description of having the dogs "tear the car up"? Does the driver have the right to subpoena the interview video if he were to take this to court?

[bart40330]

Yes you have the right to all videos, but the officer didn't do anything wrong. They are trained to use tactics such as this. Do "bad things" happen to young boys in jail? Of course they do. Do the dogs tear up cars? Yes they do. There's nothing illegal about speaking the truth. Unless the cop directly threatens you to get a confession, there's nothing illegal about scare tactics.

What advice would you give if the police officer was smart enough to suggest that he had detected the smell of cannabis coming from within the vehicle and intended conducting an emergent search of the vehicle for drugs (which would be lawful where I'm from)

[bart40330]

I would say "Officer, there's no cannabis in my car and I DO NOT consent to a search. However, if you are going to search against my will, I will not resist you, but you DO NOT have my permission and you are not going to find anything." That's really all you can do if he lies and says he smells something. 

[bart40330]

That's right! Police NEVER prosecute people who confess to crimes....

[bart40330]

And when the cop puts something in his pocket while you're sitting in the back of his police car, who replaces that? If you wait for them to bring dogs, then it's your own fault. You are under no obligation to sit and wait for them to try and find a K9 unit that can respond to a speeding ticket.

some cops are pricks some cops are people and kool.it's that simple.

[The Kb]

How do you know a friend doesn't have somthing and drops itbu accident or on purpose.

[Doug Garrou]

Don't say anything other than "I don't consent to a search."

[Viking102938]

There's tons of videos documenting the brutality and illegal detainments all over Youtube and the news. Reports of those same activites appear in papers all the time. I've known people that have had these problems.

Where else do you possibly want to hear it from? If it happens and isn't recorded or spoken about, of course you're not gonna hear about it.

[jason madigan]

you do not need to give consent if an officer detects illegal drugs. your rights are bypassed then.

[funkinstein]

well the only place I ever hear of it is in these videos. Now cops pulling someone over and getting shot in the face and then that person raping their family... That happens every day in every city on earth.

[TheCityBoy310LA]

WHAT???

[Viking102938]

XD

Either you're joking or you don't realize this video is fake.

I hope they are frustrated. This (hopefully) temporary solution to law enforcement by tricking people into giving up their rights is despicable.
