I used to watch a lot of these self-proclaimed "auditors" back in the day and eventually had to stop because I was getting annoyed with the rise of really bad ones who didn't have the maturity to do it properly. Your channel is great because it calls out rights and wrongs on BOTH sides.

Lieutenant gets an A. He did his job professionally. Need more cops like this.

LT is a rockstar. Was super impressed by his immediate de-escalation, professionalism and knowledge. If he was common this audit community wouldn’t be nearly as popular. Let’s hope for more police like him.

I remember walking my son to main street to shop because it was such a nice day. We passed by the police station and he got so excited to see their cars I had to take him to see them up close. He was only 5 or 6 at the time. So we walked right into their parking lot and he set his eyes on a brand new cruiser - our town was small and would only upgrade a few cars at a time. The other cars were a bit worn but that cruiser really was beautiful AND shiny! How could I not let him get a better look at it?!
A few minutes went by and 2 officers came to see what we were doing. I told them we really just wanted to get a close up look at the new cruiser. They saw how my son was excited but polite and one of them said, "Okay. Let's get a real good look." He opened the car door so we could climb in. My son sat in front first, then we switched and he sat in the back. The officer was SO awesome. My son got to turn on the lights and even the siren for a few seconds and the other officer was also smiling ear-to-ear.
It was one of the best days EVER for my boy. He couldn't stop talking about it for days. I thought he might even have an interest in law enforcement after that but he liked the fire engine better (the school took him there on a field trip).
Still, while we were having such a great time checking out their new ride the officer asked if I knew if any of my son's friends would react the same way. This lead to an annual event in town incorporating the newest cruisers for every day citizens to check out - inside and out. Sometimes, they even had the fire truck and/or an ambulance. It really was fun.
That parking lot didn't even have a fence around it - there was no NEED for it until years later when our little town became a much larger city.

Lieutenant was a class act, I'm glad he's leading by example. He's definitely owned his title as a Lieutenant.

“Why does no one trust cops”

Supervisor turns up and all of a sudden the story changes. Cops will lie in a second to help themselves

[hotcrazycatladyme]

That cop looked so confused when his boss offered to take him out of the situation, and immediately showed the kid respect. That was fun to watch.

[みそラーメン-me]

I'm impressed by the power of the lieutenant. He was able to immediately surpress the situation.

[jimmy]

I like the second guy, remaining silent and observing the situation until he found a place to insert himself to say something to help the situation

[Sidni]

Of all the first amendment channels this is by far my favorite. The care you take in looking at these types of incidents rationally from all sides of the conflicts is stellar. Keep up the great work.

[mr.dudebro]

The LT employed some of the best de-escalation I’ve seen, good man.

[ritebcreative]

LT was probably like "am I seriously having to deal with this shit right now? There are real crimes being committed. These officers are such idiots"

[ctakitimu]

The Lieutenant also had a really good instincts to be able to judge what was going on so fast and realizing that the cops pride was the only thing damaged, then proceeded to be a great civil servant and offer assistance! This man needs to be promoted, or sent to instruct new trainee cops on how to serve their communities

[DrYnroh]

That LT is a hell of a cop. He knew it was an audit, knew there was NO malicious intent, and steered the situation in a way that benefited the auditor, his employees, and more importantly, his community. Officer Delgado needs to be educated heavily; her accusation could have EASILY caused serious trouble for absolutely nothing

[andrewjohnson]

The female changes her story to fit the sgt detaining the cameraman. Covering for other cops is the reason for the disconnect between the public and police

[AC-jhpn]

I absolutely hate the fact that police are internally investigated. There needs to be a 3rd party review board and it should be much easier for cops to get fired!

[fallingsky]

Feel bad for that cop with the beard, I could tell he knew this whole thing was bullshit but didn’t want to speak out against his supervisor

[asprucetree]

What I like about this channel is that you are very even handed in the way you assess the audit. There are no preconceptions that taint your analysis of each individual.

[sufferedlearnedchanged]

There's lots of officers that could learn a lot from just watching this channel.

[jordanlove]

So I came across your channel a couple days ago and let me tell you … I am HOOKED ! I love how you stop and educate and so clearly spoken, I’m learning a lot just from these videos ! THANK YOU 🙏🏽
