1) Officer Confirmed no Crime was Committed ..

but Police knocked Black Man’s phone to ground, and allegedly Battered and Detained him for “Making People Uncomfortable,”  Remaining on Public Sidewalk and not Identifying

No Crime, but insist on ID after Unlawful Order to “Move on”

Officer tells black man he has committed no crime other than “making people feel uncomfortable”, but is police is alleged to have hurt man’s shoulder, handcuffed him, locking him in the back of a police vehicle, and illegally searching him because the man wouldn’t surrender his 4th amendment rights (unreasonable search/seizure of houses, papers, and effects) or comply with an unlawful order to “move on” from public sidewalk he had a right to be on.

Ignorance & Unaccountability

Officers seem not to understand than in order for a order to be lawful, the officer must be ordering the man to have a lawful goal, not that any order from an officer is automatically lawful simply because it was made by a police officer. Officer admits to throwing (?) man’s camera to the ground.  Officer seems to have the common misperception that that people can be charged with “failure to identify” (a secondary charge) even if they aren’t suspected of a crime.  1  When the man attempts to get the officer to accept responsibility for his actions asking him if he is willing to waive his qualified immunity, the officers seems impatient with a conversation about accountability and says “Young man, I’m not going to play this game.”  The Officer also refuses to call a sergeant who may be more knowledgeable of the law.

Bank Investigation.  Police Ignorance of Trespass Law

Officer took all this action before talking to bank caller to get the complainant’s side.  The bank teller knew trespass law better than officer, but the officer seemed to be angling to fraudulently use trespass law to coerce the man into giving his ID, a common misunderstanding of trespass law among law enforcement.2  For some reason, the bank called police anyway even though they seemed to know that there was no crime.  The officer does not tell the bank not to call 911 if there is not suspicion of a crime.  The officer solicits a trespass from the bank even though this is unlawful (?), and even though the bank teller told him the man did not leave the public sidewalk.  The officer will later falsely tell his supervisor that the bank may have reported (?) that the man was on the grass and used F-bombs to misrepresent the man’s verbal responses.  The man makes a point to remind the officers not to stop or mute body cameras, as he knows that this is a common way police avoid accountability.

No Crime: No Accountability

After their interview with the teller, the officers conclude there was no crime (which the originating officer told the man before he unlawfully ordered the man to move on).  When they release the man, they refuse to call a medic to attend the injured shoulder of the man they put in handcuffs and detained without grounds or a threat of violence from the man.   The initial officer copslains that “we’re not going to talk over each other” as a way of drowning out the man’s voice.  According to the police logic, the man was both “free to leave, ordered to “move on” and detained for suspicion of an unknown crime (they were likely also trying to unlawfully use their twisted understanding of trespass law as a loophole to get his ID (violate his 4th amendment rights).” 3

Police are Eager to Leave the Scene after “Suspect” asks “What did I do?”

All three officers now seem to be in a hurry to make a speedy departure.   Neither of these two other officers who joined the original officer made any effort to stop the rogue officer or apologize for their behavior.4

2) After a ‘Karen’ call, Police appear to Gaslight and Slander Real Estate Photographer

Even though they knew he was innocent, because he refused to be bossed around during an unlawful detention.

Woman calls the police because a professional real estate photographer is photographing neighbor’s house (for sale).  There is a fire going on, but police decide to “investigate” the photographer.

 

3) Todo: write account

Officer’s reason for the stop is constantly shifting
