A police officer (Trenton Garner) in (Cedartown) Georgia shot and killed HeeHaw, the one-year-old mini donkey, who lived at a children’s petting zoo in Cedartown, Georgia. A federal civil rights lawsuit has already been filed. These are HeeHaw’s lawyers, Solomon Radner and Chris McCormick.
The Gofundme is here.
The lawsuit:
Cops in Greenville, North Carolina showed up at a woman’s front door at 3am, asking if her Ring doorbell caught footage of a crime that had occurred. The woman told them her device had not been recording, so there was no footage. But they wouldn’t take no for an answer.
Officers with the San Francisco Police Department thought they had caught a car thief… Instead, they had mistyped his license plate number, resulting in them attacking, arresting and prosecuting an innocent man – who 14 months later, would be dead.
Complaint by the San Francisco Public Defender:
The findings:
A bank was robbed in Boulder, Colorado. But thankfully the bank robber didn’t even have a getaway car… He had to take the bus. And then he stopped off in a Starbucks to relax for a while. But… as the bank robber is sipping on his latte, the cops are outside chasing an innocent high school kid (Galileo Wise) on his bike who is late for his haircut appointment…
The lawsuit:
A mom called the cops on her 16 year old son because she was allegedly having trouble controlling him. Officers from the Melbourne (Florida) Police Department (my hometown) arrive on scene. They see a kid… One of the cops jumps out of his cruiser, threatens the kid, runs towards him and basically tackles him to the ground. The other cops then pile on. They pull the kid’s arm behind his back, dislocating his elbow. Only after they do this, do the cops bother to identify the kid. As it turns out, they just tackled and injured the wrong kid. So then they start to lie about it. One officer has already resigned. But should there be more?
Recently I posted a YouTube short about a video I did back in September of 2025: Man Buys His Dream Truck, Then Gets Arrested For Driving a Stolen Truck. That was the video where the Coast Guard officer buys a truck from a car dealership, and then the car dealership (Doral Volkswagen) falsely reports the truck as stolen, and he gets arrested at gunpoint and interrogated by clueless detectives. That short went over 6M views, with many of you asking, whatever happened to that situation? Is there an update? I reached out to Shane Sprague – the guy from the video. His lawyers agreed to an interview to tell you everything that’s happened since my first video, and also provided me with all of the raw footage, including some never-before-seen bodycam footage from that incident.
An entire police department in Utah turned on a Youtuber and it was all caught on video. And it only took me 5 videos to break it all down. I started with an interview of that Youtuber – Reckless Ben – and now, I just re-interviewed Ben – just as a judge finally lifted his gag order, allowing him to once-again speak. So this is not only the finale, and part 5 of my analysis of the Reckless Ben police interactions, but also a brand-new exclusive interview of Reckless Ben, where he tells me everything that is currently happening. Oh and you’ll finally hear from the lawyer who has agreed to take on this police department and file civil rights lawsuits. There’s a ton here, so let’s go through it.
We’ve been covering the story of how a single phone call between two drama queen grown men – Josh Johnson and Officer Tonga of the American Fork Police Department – somehow escalated into a worldwide internet phenomenon that has permeated every layer of content and discussion in our society. Everything from lawyers on YouTube to stand-up comedy – and even regular TV news. In my last video I explained how that one phone call turned into Reckless Ben and his friend Tyler being illegally detained by the American Fork Police Department that very first day. Now we’re going to use the unredacted bodycam footage to show what happened the very next day. And it’s much, much worse. I re-interviewed Tyler Shaw, who you’ll see was the primary victim of the American Fork Police Department’s abuse and harassment.

Since I talked with Reckless Ben about the stolen Lego situation and the ensuing harassment and retaliation he received from the American Fork Police Department in Utah, a lot has happened. I got the chance to talk to the other guy with Ben in the videos, Tyler Shaw, who was the one driving the car – the same guy the cops falsely accused of being on drugs. And most importantly, I now have access to the full set of unredacted bodycam videos, that believe it or not, make the American Fork Police Department look even worse than before. Whatever the truth is about the underlying dispute about the Legos, one thing is for sure. This police department chose to take sides in that dispute, and abuse their authority and trample constitutional rights in the process.
Hundreds, or maybe thousands of you, reached out to me about covering the Reckless Ben Lego videos. Ben reached out to me as well. Basically, he made a video about a stolen Lego collection that ended with him getting arrested and charged by the American Fork Police Department in Utah County, Utah. I was immediately intrigued and I wanted to help him. But before I could do that, I had to understand all of the facts. I needed to talk to Ben himself. I got a chance to interview Ben and review all of the court documents. This is Part 1, where I interview Ben. In Part 2, we’ll dive into the documents and the video of the interactions.
