Not showing your ID is not complying. The officer has a right to know who he or she is dealing with.
Not knowing both sides makes any other observation speculative.
Incorrect.
The only time a officer may demand you identify is if they are going to arrest you, and they need reason beyond you did not want to identify, or if you are behind the wheel of a vehicle.
You need not identify under any other circumstances.
Actually, no, you don’t have to show your ID. only if you’re being charged with something. It’s amazing how many cops don’t know that.
Tasing a handcuffed person requires no speculation.
It’s intolerable cruelty every single time.
Not knowing that and casting doubt leaves folks knowing exactly with whom they’re dealing reply after reply.
You do not under ANY circumstances have to show your ID or identify yourself unless you are informed that you are being detained and for what purpose you are being detained. And also, women should not be in the field. PERIOD. I watch dozens of body cam footage that are released daily and it’s horrifying to watch how incompetent female officers are and how much danger they place themselves and others into by walking the beat. Police no longer ride in pairs and as such women can be easily overpowered and are much quicker to implement deadly force as a result. If true, this woman in no way should wear the uniform. Pfffft show an ID when no order of detainment or declaration of suspicion of a crime has been announced. I too would tell the cop to pound sand.
In some states you are required to identify yourself. You are not required to show ID.
> The officer has a right to know who he or she is dealing with. <
Sure, the officer would like to know. But the Fourth Amendment says the officer does not automatically have the right. We are not a “papers, please“ country.
The officer must be able to articulate probable cause.
The stop being legal, so also would the requirement by the officer to provide an ID be lawful under the stop and frisk principle that officers can require ID in order to determine who they are dealing with and in case there are any wants and warrants. That leaves the issue of whether the officer used reasonable force.
In favor of the officer is Washington's failure to comply with a lawful command to provide ID, her disparity in size compared to Washington, his possession of a gun, and his outstanding fentanyl charge. In favor of Washington is the officer's abusive language, which suggests an intention to inflict harm on him.
My guess is that the case will never go to trial. Washington will get a settlement offer of about $25,000, while the officer will get a minor ding in her record as to professional standards for abusive language and being too quick to use the taser.
Few will make the point that a large, strong male officer of Washington's size -- a traditional but no longer permitted requirement for police work -- would likely have been able to get him to comply and would never have felt a need or desire to use a taser.
If he wasn’t the driver, he has no obligation to show an ID, but your comment doesn’t even apply here, as he did give the corrupt cop his ID.
Show me your papers?
She doesn't have rights she has privileges.
You are wrong.
No person is required to produce identification to any police officer unless that officer can “ articulate a reasonable suspicion a crime has been committed or is about to be committed”
See Supreme Court, she belongs in PRISON
Aggravated Assault
Felony Kidnapping
And I would add 20 years for the FALSE Drug Charge she made.
No the cop has no right to demand ID unless they have articuable suspicion of a crime. You can tell them to eff off. They can’t touch you either its assault.
This guy will be getting a nice fat settlement and deservedly so.
If Washington not ID state he doesn’t need to show unless detained for possible crime.
IN Texas, the officer has that right ONLY after a lawful detention for a violation of the penal code or traffic violation. Not just because of a hunch or a “feeling”. They can’t demand ID “just because”.
“Not showing your ID is not complying. The officer has a right to know who he or she is dealing with.”
She wouldn’t have been “dealing” with him at all if she hadn’t approached and demanded to know who he was when he was just working on changing a tire.
Wow! Have you heard of the 4th Amendment? Probable cause? And a “Papers” demand is totally Gestapo. And taking multiple times when he was not charged with resisting? This cop was out of control. Perhaps that is why she was releived of duty. If the PD thinks you were in the right you usually get a desk job until you’re cleared. If your bust was suspect by the PD you get paid leave like she did.
