Honestly why give her the attention. These people are best forgotten.
Shit, this cop was so nice and patient.
She looks and sounds exactly like I would imagine.
"I'm not even black and you threw me down"
What a piece of garbage.
Her experience being black would've gone sour way more quickly.
It's really sad to see someone at a very low point in their life.
I’m not doing this right now.
You think this is still optional. Fuck cops generally, but as soon as they’re engaged, you’re out of options until court. This guy was pretty patient.
This guy was pretty patient.
That lady was pretty white.
"Get your hand off my penis!"
I see you know your judo well
Are you also waiting to receive my limp penis?
What an utter waste of public services.
This is a textbook argument for just sticking this type of bonehead in the stocks overnight. Imagine the current supply of lettuces available to be launched at them!
I sentence you to pink eye!
My wife is addicted to this type of video. I think most of them are skits that people act in to make a point. And they stretch it out longer than it has to be. Woman is trespassing, give her a set time (say, 60 seconds) to vacate the property. If she does so, take her information so the restaurant can bill her. She doesn't pay, they sue her in small claims court and win, plus she pays legal fees. So "buy now pay later" with more steps. She doesn't, it's criminal trespass and they're in the right to sit her in a jail overnight. And the restaurant still sends her a bill for the meal. Not rocket science. Not a cop, not a lawyer. Certainly not a rocket scientist.
My argument is we have a social agreement as a society, you see the establishment, you see the prices, you agree to dine at the restaurant and pay for your food. It's not a buy now pay later setup, no sending her a bill.
An exception can be made if she came forward and was like "I fucked up", can I come in an hour or tomorrow and pay my bill.
But her entitled ass acted like a child, then got racist and wasted so much time and energy. No sale. Pay your shit and leave, or go to jail for theft of services. Complete waste of oxygen. I've seen children and pets act better than this bullshittery.
I go out of my way to not inconvenience others, then people like this exist and make me want to kill them for being utter ass holes. Zero sympathy from me.
And I hate cops, so that tells you something.
1/3 people are assholes.
This is why we have so many problems.
fully agree. i tend to be a lot harder on people who do things intentionally, even basic shit. littering, damaging property. intent matters, but yes, fuck everyone who makes someone else's life or job harder for "funsies". die in a fire. you get like one chance to clean up your act or you're done. no sympathy for this type of behavior without some sort of medical diagnosis that shows a negative disorder.
Idk where this video was shot but it doesn't seem she was trespassed before the arrest. You have to be told you are trespassed and be given the option to leave before you can be arrested for trespassing. They never told her explicitly she was trespassed and just told her she can either pay the bill and leave, or go to jail. After the arrest the officer went into the property and then came back to tell her she's been formally trespassed. That's not how that usually works. At the beginning the manager just said they wanted to press charges if she didn't pay, and she said she'd pay but needed to use restroom first.
But if you like videos like this then look to "audit" videos like "audit the audit" youtube. This is where people intentionally test their legal rights and are prepared to sue the city if the cops violate their rights to hold them accountable
Edit: found full video which gives the update that she pleaded not guilty but then didn't show for her hearing so she's got a warrant out for her arrest lol.
and she said she’d pay but needed to use restroom first
Yeah that's not how that works. She was given many opportunities to pay. Saying you're going to pay means nothing when you've demonstrated repeatedly that you're not going to pay, especially when you were given an ultimatum by the officer to pay or be arrested
fuckin hate auditors. it's such a cringy subset of influencers. they're just as bad as sovereign citizens.
much prefer lawyer reviews of bodycam footage or just raw bodycam footage. it's a great way to learn and identify how interactions with American police are trained to go and what to expect.
They never told her explicitly she was trespassed and just told her she can either pay the bill and leave
If somebody asks you to leave their private property and you stay, that is trespassing. I’m not aware of the need to use the word “tresspass”. Not a lawyer.
Someone asks you to leave and says they’re calling the cops? Staying is a game of chicken you’re going to lose.
It was contigent on her not paying. If she paid, which she claimed she was going to after using the restroom, then they wouldn't "press charges". Therefore she was not told explicitly she needed to leave immediately.
And once she's been told in no uncertain terms she needed to leave and she refuses at that point then it's tresspass.
Don't get me wrong shes an intolerable drunk but it's an important distinction. If i show up to Flock's headquarters with a shirt that says "fuck your privacy" while recording them on my phone camera they can't immediately tell me "youre trespassed" and then have me arrested with their standby cops. Instead if they tell me i need to leave then i have the chance to leave. Same thing goes with going to stores. Let's say a store uses AI for loss detection (theft) and the AI wrongly flagged you as a shoplifter at another store. Now you walk into your favorite store and they call the cops, they cant immediately arrest you for just showing up to the store and telling you after you've been arrested that you needed to leave aka trespassed. Instead they would need to communicate to you to you need to leave, and they could only have you arrested if you refused. It would still suck because their AI labeled you as a shoplifter even if you aren't but at least you're not arrested.
This police officer very clearly gave her the opportunity to leave, however if she left without paying the bill, he planned to arrest her for theft of services. When the restaurant owner stated he wanted to press charges (which I think includes an assault that happened prior to this video), the officer was obligated to make the arrest
Police officer gave her time to leave before she was "trespassed". She needs to be given time to leave after being tresspassed. The cop can't decide to trespass either, it needs to come from the owner and cop can communicate it if needed. In this case the conditions were clear-- pay or charges are being pressed. She asked to use the restroom and officer then turned to the manager and asked if they'd like to press charges. At that point the officer arrested her and went back inside and confirmed that they wanted her trespassed. He communicated the trespass to her in the cop car.
And it looks like I'm right, her charges were battery (unseen footage before cop arrived) and resisting arrest. Not violating trespass. There's no way they could've made that one stick.
Nothing against you or anyone else but im over this convo and won't be following up here anymore.
I don't think this was stretched out at all, he has her outside the building in cuffs within 2 minutes of engaging her. When he was getting a statement from the restaurant, they said "if she had just left when we asked her to, we wouldn't have even cared about the bill." But now she gets to sit in jail for theft, trespass, and resisting arrest.
don't forget assault.
She doesn’t pay, they sue her in small claims court
That's an enormous hassle, practically speaking.
One of the reasons the Australian "What is my crime, officer?!" guy got away for so long. The crimes are so petty that they aren't worth the effort to pursue.
