The Police Want To Search You… (Should You Consent?)
Показать описание
What should you do if police want to search your car during a traffic stop? In this short informational video, U.S. Concealed Carry Association Director of Content Kevin Michalowski and criminal defense attorney Tom Grieve discuss Constitutional rights and police search and seizure. The main takeaway is to remain calm and respectful while raising your rights.
00:00 If you’re pulled over for a traffic stop and tell the officer you have a concealed carry permit and a weapon on your person, should you comply if he or she asks to search your vehicle?
00:40 Kevin sets the scene of a simple traffic stop and raises the question. What is Tom’s response as an attorney?
00:57 Be polite and respectful yet clear: “No. I do not consent to any searches.”
01:30 What would give police “reasonable suspicion” to search your vehicle without your consent?
03:07 If you do consent to a search it will be very difficult to have any evidence dismissed in court at a later date.
03:48 You have a Constitutional right that protects you against random search and seizure. We fought and won a war to secure that right.
04:19 All law enforcement officers took an oath to defend and uphold the Constitution, so they should understand that your right to deny unlawful search falls under that.
06:45 Officer safety exemptions introduce a gray area in vehicular search and seizure, but your rights are still your rights. That is why we have courts.
07:56 Even if you get out of the vehicle, make it clear (again, politely) that you do not consent to any searches.
08:45 You will do yourself a favor in the moment and down the road in court if you remain calm and respectful while raising your rights during any encounter with police. Do not swear at or threaten officers.
09:02 Never physically try to stop an officer from searching your property. Let the courts handle it.
