A 16-year-old boy was running for his life after being shot at in downtown San Diego. He was not a threat and not a suspect, yet he was shot in the back by a police officer who only saw him for ONE second before deciding to pull the trigger. Sadly, that young man lost his life that night, which I detailed in a video back in March. Now it has been announced that the City is set to agree to THE LARGEST police settlement in US history – 30 million dollars.
Over two years ago I showed you a video about a 62 year old grandfather named Kevin Hinton. He was driving late one night on a road trip, returning from meeting his brand-new baby granddaughter in Oregon. He was too tired to continue driving. He couldn’t keep his eyes open. So he pulled over in a public parking lot in Spokane, Washington to take a nap. He was awakened by the arrival of Sgt. Clay Hilton with the Spokane County Sheriff’s Office. Three minutes later, he would have 8 broken ribs, a punctured lung, a severe concussion, a shoulder injury, and a disfigured lip. Why? Because Sgt. Hilton thought this 62 year old grandfather was rude to him. Now, over 2 years later, there’s a huge update on my original video. Sgt. Hilton has been fired, and is now facing federal criminal charges.
This is Daniel Waltson. He was arrested for allegedly threatening to shoot police officers while they were at his home the previous night. A judge signed an arrest warrant after cops told him that Daniel “threatened to shoot the police for being on his property.” His house was besieged by police officers aiming guns at his home, where his two young kids were inside. He was arrested at gunpoint and placed in handcuffs. He spent 3 days in jail, lost his job, and was later indicted by a grand jury. Yet the entire time, there was video footage of the alleged threat, that completely exonerated Daniel, proving that he never threatened to shoot police officers. Rather, he threatened to “sue” police officers.
This is Braden, a blue collar guy who saw a state trooper violating traffic laws in his small town of Rigby, Idaho. He’s considering making a complaint, because it’s a double standard. He snaps two photos of the cruiser so he could ID the officer in a complaint. But then the officer stops and detains him, accusing him of being a possible terrorist… forces him under threat of arrest to provide his ID, openly hoping he had a warrant; he then looks for his vehicle, hoping to find a reason – any reason – to take Braden to jail.
When the trooper finds out Braden has a concealed weapon permit, he harasses him further, putting his hands behind his back and generously frisking Braden – again almost hoping for any reason to escalate the situation. The trooper claims that even though he, as a police officer, gets to look into the windows of our vehicles, that we can’t do the same to a police vehicle. Because they’re special. Fortunately, Braden had a dash cam that captured the trooper’s driving, and additionally, there was a good cop there, who documented – with his bodycam – the trooper’s open and defiant retaliation against this citizen exercising his First Amendment rights to document police misconduct.
This video was recently posted on the Sgt. Pepperspray YouTube channel, titled “Cocky Teen Driver Gets Chewed Out by Dad After Fleeing Police.” It shows a 19 year-old girl’s father confronting her on the phone (in front of the police, as they were in the process of illegally arresting her) and insulting and berating her (for all to see/hear), helping Officer Scott Riera of the New Smyrna Police in his attempts at ruining the young girl’s life over what should have been traffic citations. Instead, she’s facing a felony charge, due in court tomorrow.
In June of 2024, a woman called police and claimed Charles Read kicked down her door and assaulted her, then fled on foot. Officer Mark Bellotte obtained an arrest warrant for Mr. Read. The only problem was… Mr. Read has been in a wheelchair for 25 years. Now there’s been an update. Someone’s been fired… but also someone hasn’t been fired.
An innocent 19 year old college student, who doesn’t drink, doesn’t do drugs, is studying at the library and he ends up getting arrested by some cops who apparently have something to prove. He did nothing wrong. He complied with everything they asked him to do. He was polite. And most importantly, he was completely sober. Yet that didn’t save him from these cops and local authorities, determined to ruin the kid’s life. Even after his innocence was completely proven, every authority figure in this kid’s life, chose to back the blue over him – the police over the truth.
Imagine that you’re just at home minding your own business… you hear a large crash outside. You run and look outside to see one of your town’s marked police cars had just slammed into the vehicles in your driveway. As you go outside to see what in the world happened, you see that marked police car flip on his emergency lights, and then flee the scene, leaving behind a trail of destruction. So you call the police, right?
Then the same police department shows up. They see this trail of destruction that you just saw caused by one of their police cars. So you tell them what you saw. But they don’t believe you. They know nothing about it. They tell you that you did not actually see that police car that you thought you saw, slam into the vehicles. Nope, that was nothing… You must be crazy. In reality, it was a police car, driven by a cop, who had just left a cop party, who crashed into these cars, then fled the scene and went home.
This police officer’s ego just cost the taxpayers of his county $80,000. He saw a man videoing him from a distance… and he just couldn’t deal with it. That man was actually also a police officer and had a reason to video this deputy. But because of his ego, or perhaps ignorance, the deputy abused his authority, retaliated against the man, arrested him and placed him in the back of his police car. But within 20 minutes, the man would be out of handcuffs, out of the police car, and receiving an apology. So what changed?
A 27 year old mom with a 6 year old little boy safely buckled in the rear seat pulls into an Arkansas gas station in a white Lincoln sedan. Suddenly multiple police cars speed towards her, slamming on their brakes. Multiple Arkansas State Troopers (Troop “L”) jump out aiming rifles and pistols at the mom, as well as her innocent 6 year old son. But it was the wrong car and the wrong suspect. And the worse thing about this incident is what these cops did after they realized their mistake.
