>> Under ‘arrest’ only means that you are placed in handcuffs while the officer does further investigation.
I think you are confusing “being detained” and “being placed under arrest”.
You can’t be placed under arrest just upon the whim of the cop, for no reason. There are rules and standards and such for arrest. Hence, the concept of “false arrest”.

“You don’t know what the man said to the officer.”
And it wasn’t recorded because of a Thug cop listening to Rapp Music. Any cop caught listening to that on duty should be fired because then we already know what kind of person they are.

We Americans just DON’T know how LOW standards are for police in those countries and how HIGH our standards are.

From a LEO aspect, some parts, generally local, have been for a long time.

It’s a dealer tag, no sticker required.

I grew up up in a foreign country and dealt with that country’s police force many times growing up as a “foreigner” there.
I will say that there are LEO’s and departments in this country fast approaching that nation’s level of “professionalism”.
Cops on duty don’t get to have “bad days” and abuse citizens because.
If my contrarian statement makes me a “hater”, so be it.
But the truth is the truth and blanket statements on both sides of these debates/discussions, whether they be for or against cops, don’t do anyone any good.

I think you are confusing being detained and being placed under arrest.I won't argue with that.
Was he 'being detained' or 'being placed under arrest' ?

Here is what I don’t understand.
If it doesn’t require a sticker, why did they say it had an EXPIRED STICKER on the plate ?

I have been reading all the articles relating to this incident, and if all the statements are true, then the officer should not have pulled him over to begin with.
However, once he did, regardless to why, it’s not a good idea to resist arrest.
Anyway, the Police Chief seems to think the officer screwed up, so it’s probably a settled issue.
I still wonder is there wasn’t some ‘misuse’ of the dealer tags going on. I see that quite a bit. Employee’s cars with Dealer tags on them.
I have been in a situation where the cops pulled me over and said my license plate LIGHT was out. They ‘detained’ me for a while and searched the car. Then they let me go.
Had I argued with them, and decided to handcuff me, and I had fought back with them, what do you think would have happened to me ?
(When I got home I checked. The license plate LIGHT was working just fine)

Thanks for your follow-up. I don't claim insight into a policeman's rules of behavior, in particular in this situation. Like most, I know it from the other end - the guy getting pulled over. But here, they had arrived at the dealer, and he should simply have let the guy explain, which it appeared he tried to do, and then speak with the manager, or whoever that other guy was who came over and called him Gestapo. He could have acted low-key until something warranted physical force of whatever degree. The driver pointed to his license plate, tried to explain, and it was then the cop lost self-control and grabbed for the paper in the driver's hand. Why couldn't he have let the guy call the manager out to explain? End of incident.
Yes, a cop commands, we obey - or else. But why in so many situations must cops command, when simple questions would suffice? It's that initial hostile, superior attitude that spirals a situation into physical force, in so many of these youtubes.
I would train cadets that: 1)innocent until proven guilty and 2) the person is your neighbor, grandfather, mother, son, etc. and should be approached as such. Of course there are a slew of red flags that will put a cop on guard, but lacking these, he should be civil.
I am intrigued by a two-level police force: one utilizing "Mayberry" community members who are nonetheless fully-trained police, and the other a full-force squad ready to mobilize quickly when called. It seems when we combine these roles, which is increasingly evident with the hardware now coming into play, the default position moves inexorably toward greater immediate aggression. That is a worry.

And what exactly are those facts? LOL! Then we must have been watching two different videos bootlicker, because what I saw was a punk ass cop who couldn't wait to show an old man who was in control. It was a missing inspection sticker Pete's sake ... not a suspected armed robber. It was clear the punk-ass cop had an attitude when he got out of the car.
