Your guy doesn't comprehend the case law he is citing. Mims requires officer safety to be a prerequisite issue during a traffic stop investigation to elevating it a removing the occupants & conducting a search. Notice how he doesn't cite ay issues of officer safety in his report, nor does he even mention it in the interaction in the cam. He misinterprets the ruling in the case that he cites as allowing a broad license to conduct a removal & search. That's not what Mims says. The vid demonstrates emotion & ego overruling substance & circumstance. Sorry, but your buy got this one wrong.

I know the officer in the video personally and will attest to the fact that he is a really good guy and deserves the opportunity for all of the facts to come out before the masses begin to rattle their pitchforks.

I obviously was not at this scene and I have not spoken to him about the incident, but knowing him and his character, I would assume there is much more to this story. I would be interested in seeing the body cam footage of the entire stop, not just the footage where the guy in the vehicle started to record.

Regardless of all of this, I feel that the comments about roid-raging and suggestions to the officer's steroid use were uncalled for. The guy loves to work out and frequents the gym often; the change in his physique being attributed to steroid use is reckless conjecture.

Penn v Mimms removal is almost always reasonable. To search occupants post-removal from vehicle requires RAS.

Meh, no. Case law says otherwise:

A stop may “last no longer than is necessary to effectuate the initial purpose of the stop…Authority for the seizure thus ends when tasks tied to the traffic infraction are—or reasonably should have been—completed.” A traffic detention must last no longer than necessary to resolve the suspected traffic violation, either by warning, citation or hearing an explanation from the driver. The detention and investigation must be reasonably related to the initial reason for the stop, unless other factors support additional reasonable suspicion (United States v. Hill, 852 F.3d 377 (4th Cir. 2017); United States v. Gil, 204 F.3d 1347 (11th Cir.), cert. denied, 531 U.S. 951 (2000)). Any further detention must be supported by reasonable suspicion of more serious criminal activity.


Stupid tricks such as walking away & then turning back to ask more questions after already issuing a ticket have been ruled to be a 2nd interaction attempt not justified by the original RS stop. In this case, there was nothing stated in the interaction or articulated in the written report to justify the removal of driver, per Mimms. Lacking articulable justification to play detention games here makes the decision arbitrary & capricious.

Maybe do some reading on the subject before commenting.

You are assuming that body cam video is actually available. There seem to be a lot of "malfunctions", both human and equipment, in these incidents.

The point is, young officers are taught, hey PA v. Mimms says you can remove people from the car. Then they want everyone to respect their authority, as they think it is. It's not always a bright line. Which is why cops should ask themselves, do I really need this ID? Do I really need this person out of the car? If you don't have a reason, maybe you should just go on w/ your life and do something useful. Honestly that would solve 90% of these encounters before they even begin.

Such as here, ok warning ticket for left of center. See you later... guy goes to work & officer does something else. Problem solved.

I’ve noticed that too.  Most of these videos are of officers that go to substantial to enormous WORK to fuck up.  I don’t get it.  Meanwhile some drunk needs pulled off the road, some kid is lost, some woman is getting beaten up by someone who said he loved her.  Yet here we are.

Assuming the officer/deputy/trooper articulates that he felt his life was in danger (not happening here on the roadside, might still be claimed in this case in a court deposition but it would be a hard sell), black robed copsuckers are reluctant to second guess the judgment of the guy who claims he was only trying to get home alive. Unfortunately, that all too often applies to murdering non-resisting citizens because you don't know for sure that they aren't a threat (Roger Fortson, Andrew Finch, and arguably Daniel Shaver, but I'd say Shaver was obviously not a threat).

I just went back and looked at the cell phone video.
The only thing I see on the centerline of the deputy's torso is the zipper pull for his ballistic vest.
I'm thinking there is no video of the traffic stop portion of the interaction, unless it's from a dash cam (but with the windows rolled up and the A/C on, you won't hear a word of the discussion from a dash cam).

It will all be released. But they will try to fuck this guy on the criminal charges first. If they do, then they're in the clear probably. They already got him suspended from his job, working as a nurse at a fucking nursing home. So yeah they will destroy your life to get themselves in the clear. He should beat the charges, but they may try to coerce him into pleading to something first.

Based on what was in the report (and maybe more importantly what was not) as well as the repeated references to Mims in the video, a judge might not feel too friendly towards the officer claiming his life was threatened.

What transpires between handing over the ticket, and the demand that the passenger exit the vehicle that led the cop to believe he was in danger?

Hopefully, but there sure seem to be a lot of convinient malfunctions.

Also, I'm becoming more of the opinion that there should be recourse in extracting similar punishment to what was exerted on the citizen.  Maybe if they have to live with the thought of getting stopped, ripped out, etc, bad cops would be less inclined to be the bad apples.

That goes for the DA as well, regarding such chickenshit charges as carrying his own prescription.  When there is no personal feedback, there clearly isn't incentive enough to behave.

The point is, young officers are taught, hey PA v. Mimms says you can remove people from the car. Then they want everyone to respect their authority, as they think it is. It's not always a bright line. Which is why cops should ask themselves, do I really need this ID? Do I really need this person out of the car? If you don't have a reason, maybe you should just go on w/ your life and do something useful. Honestly that would solve 90% of these encounters before they even begin.

Such as here, ok warning ticket for left of center. See you later... guy goes to work & officer does something else. Problem solved.

Is this rhetorical? Of course they need that ID. They need every ID within 100 yards of their location.

Ironically, in this particular video, the officer never requested this guy's ID, who was a passenger. Step 1. Mace; Step 2, obtain ID. Step 3, run the dog around the car, lol.

This is also the same jurisdiction (4th circuit) where there was recently an opinion re: passengers having the 1A right to livestream a traffic stop (from inside the vehicle during the actual stop). I probably should have mentioned that, as they shot down all the bullshit officer safety excuses they were throwing out there, as far as generalized traffic stop dangers. The constitution isn't suspended just because there is a traffic violation detainment. That isn't game on to do whatever you want, for as long as you want. You can do things, but there need to be particularized reasons, not just general fear and officer safety concerns.

I was mostly shitposting, but his order of operations was a bit suspect.

The 4th circuit opinion on the livestreaming is interesting. Have there been previous opinions from other courts on it? No doubt officers aren't fond of it, being a stream to offsite could be considered a "loose end".

I know the officer in the video personally and will attest to the fact that he is a really good guy and deserves the opportunity for all of the facts to come out before the masses begin to rattle their pitchforks.

I obviously was not at this scene and I have not spoken to him about the incident, but knowing him and his character, I would assume there is much more to this story. I would be interested in seeing the body cam footage of the entire stop, not just the footage where the guy in the vehicle started to record.

Regardless of all of this, I feel that the comments about roid-raging and suggestions to the officer's steroid use were uncalled for. The guy loves to work out and frequents the gym often; the change in his physique being attributed to steroid use is reckless conjecture.

Feeling anabolic about response. Maybe you should try be the most violent best version of yourself.

Your friend gives cops a bad name.

Let’s wait til body cam footage is released. I’m not convinced the search and seizure of prescription meds was illegal.

If they are taking prescribed meds, then where's the illegality? The pill box - is that sufficient PC? Is the mere possession of a firearm satisfactory grounds for PC? (Pro tip: Research before responding).

Machines malfunction. We are nothing but machines, albeit very complex machines.

How cliche of you. I bet everything else was working fine. Gun? Radio? Patrol cam? Check. Pepper spray? Check-check. Body cam? Oops!

Keeping speed detectors calibrated is a legal requirement, or else a case gets thrown out. I treat body cams the same way. Didn't work in this case? Oh well, there goes that one.

Unredacted/unedited cam evidence cuts both ways. As it should. I'm fine with it. But police don't always seem to be at select times, & this will always make the voracity of their charge(s) suspicious.

Part of the problem is, IMO, that cops are taught to NEVER back down, and ALWAYS defend other cops.

Part of it is asserting authority, and part of it is “if you’re not a cop you’re little people “.

This is how we get the escalations that end up in huge civil payouts and ACAB.
