Drunk Off-Duty Cop Flees Police at 100 mph
On June 12, 2022, a Monroe County deputy observed a speeding vehicle in Key Largo, FL. When he attempted a traffic stop, the vehicle fled at a high rate of speed driving recklessly through traffic. After several miles, the vehicle finally pulled over and the driver exited saying he was a police officer.

Through this whole video the sheriff and all the other police are giving this drunk police officer special treatment he shouldn’t get special treatment he should get the worst treatment considering he’s a criminal police officer
Nothing like a cop arresting a cop to show you how crucial it is to keep your mouth shut when you are in trouble. They went out of their way to NOT have him incriminate himself.
what ?
They also wanted to do this as by the book as possible. They wouldn't want the whole bust to go south on a technicality.
Exactly!!!

@@guntereh2271 What part got you mixed up?
Don't worry everyone, the drunk off duty officer has investigated himself and has found no wrong doings
Facts that’s why the officer kept telling him not to say another word..simply yes or no’s to save his career🤦🏾♂️
@@ZillaZonee not to save his career, but because he understands that if he's a cop, he's been through rigorous background investigations, and this is most likely his first offense. He knows that cops deal with a lot of shit, and if he's drinking and driving, it's not because he's reckless, but probably because he's struggling. Many first responders fall into alcoholism after seeing the shit that happens in the world. No excuse for his actions, but yeah, he is respecting his rights (the same as normal) and being careful to remind him that this will affect the rest of his life.

@@OustFox lol he understands that he needs to help his "brother" have the best fighting chance in the courtroom so he doesnt get the punishment that any of us normies would get for drunken driving, fleeing and speeding 111 in a 45. We all go through shit and if anyone should know better than to behave like this it's law enforcement. All the vets in prison who went down the wrong path because of a situation in their past or a woman that might've experienced something horrible and set her on a destructive path definitely dont get that treatment. The officer was advising him to remain silent without having to say too much but we all got the hint
The fact that he tell’s him to not say a word really goes to show how talking to the cop’s goes no-where in most situation’s.
And goes as far as to shut the door on him so he doesn’t hear anything he might say.
Also refusing the sobriety tests without hesitancy
Exactly. He is allowed to speak. Also drawing a gun on someone who pulled over as soon as you caught up to them is extremely overdramatic.
@@donbeck8835 "Who pulled over as soon as you caught up to them" ... AFTER FLEEING at dangerous speeds while intoxicated. People are worried about guns but cars are really the most dangerous weapon in America. He was endangering the life of everyone else on the road. It is a very serious situation.
@@trevordonaldson7634 LOL, where I'm from, speeding does not constitute drawing a gun but lick that boot harder I guess

The fact the he would drive drunk at 100 plus mph and flee from cops THEN think he’s entitled to a free pass shows he has no business being in law enforcement
He was going to a call. Did we watche the same vidoe? He was cleared of all charges!
Or it shows that he's just a bog-standard cop.
In a lot of similar situations, (Black) people have been shot. Also, the Deputy first said that he had "Mirandized" the man. Then he asked for a Miranda card.
Because it's Miami / Flordia police. He probably has gotten away with this before in his district with his buddies. Lots of corruption in the entire state there.
@@mervyngreene6687 I just saved a bunch of money by switching my car insurance to Geico.
Honestly it's frightening how corrupt this guy sounds... "if you're a cop I'd let you go". Like WTF!?! It's the good cops who take down the bad ones...
Makes me never want to visit that part of Florida... If a cop like that would give a drink cop a ride, what would he do to an innocent citizen?
I'd do that too lol
He was fired, charged with multiple felonies, and they're refusing to let him use their lawyers. They weren't going to let him start saying things without being mirandized, as anything he would've said prior to being read his rights would've been thrown out. Were you see officers giving special treatment, I see a group of officers providing due diligence so a criminal doesn't walk away due to a clerical error.
@@nordaxglass6572 Incorrect. Miranda rights only apply to questions asked. If the suspect is making statements, they are still admissible. He was protecting his fellow pig.
It's Miami - Dade... Lower your standards.

So, the bodycams ensured justice here. The officers could not wave this off, as the footage would be reviewed regardless. Excellent technology. The way they tell him not to speak, to ask for a favour, and mention 'by the book', it shows how this would have gone twenty years ago.
You mean five years ago
"We protect our own" This guy is exactly why there are trust issues between the public and police.
No there are issues between the public and police because of the media
Hold on!! It was the drunk bad cop that was ARRESTED sitting cuffed in the back of a police car that said that, not the officers arresting him. If anything, the fact he was arrested, cuffed behind his back, and booked should increase the trust between the public and the police. There was some harmless banter talk (like calling him brother) that changed nothing, he has been charged, but the cops did the right thing here and you act like they did something bad!!

Cop to the suspect: "Be quiet. Don't say another word, do you hear me?" This is corrupt AF.
I've seen/heard Cops say the same thing to other (non-police) suspects. It's not rare.
I don't know, it really sounded to me more like he was so pissed that a cop was speeding, evading, DUI, etc, that he was saying it more for his own benefit. To be less pissed off. Like, the other cop clearly indicates that this guy was *pissed* after he shoved the dude into the car. And he just gets more audibly angry when he sees it really is a covert police vehicle. idk how you can watch this and come away with "main cop bad" instead of "main cop is so doomguy angry that he is strictly following procedure to the utmost to have the best chance of getting this dude's career destroyed"

That's not corruption, corruption is turning off their cameras and taking the officer home.
The discussion about how they're supposed to look after each other is shocking. As the arresting officer points out, this guy is only getting booked because of the cameras.
He pointed out that there were cameras. Not that they’re the reason he can’t let bro walk

Ohhh this guy is dirty, no question. Just his statement of “we protect our own” gave me chills. He thinks there is 2 tiers of justice. One for police like himself, and the other for the rest of us. That’s corruption and tyranny.
i bet everyone likes to party with you
and there is as the arresting officer says shut up don't say another word, you hear me? trying to help him out
The cop that blows coke with you and busts you
And the other one agreed so................More chills?
Yup he’s down hella corrupt shit I bet
This video really pissed me off. I've been binging your videos all week and never seen any of the cops treat ANYONE like this, unreal.
They have to do a dance because if they piss off another agency, or shine negative light on their own agency, the cop could receive negative publicity in their community. Because he is an employee of them, anything he says/does reflects poorly on their judgment.
the only arrest videos i watch are cops arresting other cops for drunk driving. it's so telling just how every situation is handled. it's always "unfortunatly with all the techonology we have today..." "i know i want to help you out dude but you have to understand it's all on camera" "...youre putting me in a really difficult position" "i dont want to do this" "dont say anything'"
Shut up Meg…
Watch some more. Many Police are quite polite with suspects who earn it. 👍
I completely agree with you!
It’s gross listening to them regret stopping, and arresting him. Bending over backwards to help him during his arrest. Disgusting.
It's disturbing when people feel they're above the law, it's disgraceful when it's someone who has a standard to maintain that law. Thank God he stopped and nobody was hurt.
It is. Not just picture how many of those in our federal government think the same way except they have way more power and access.
most of police think they are above the law. even if its the SMALLEST things... like going a bit too fast on a road, maybe 5 miles per hour over (not like this guy) and wont care, yet will pull you over the second you go a mile over the speed limit. cops in america are a joke.
@@jj-fk9ez Also notice how the cop who is conducting the arrest calls him "bro" and "boss" along with some gentle talk, like some kind of a buddy buddy conversation. An ordinary citizen will suffer far worse consequences even for smallest things. American cops are extremely corrupt and have an us vs them attitude, so they'll always do anything to protect their own.
Nailed It
Laws for thee but not for me
“Let’s do this by the books” as if anything else should happen regardless of who they are arresting
They said that because another LEO can't get special treatment
It was done that way to prevent a way out for the drunk cop, if he is arrested and booked improperly he could get off with a light sentence.
The "by the books" statement means "Let's not fu*k this up." If the officer began his questions before reading the Miranda rights none of those answers would be admissible in court. So pretty much cross the Is and dot the Ts.
If you're implying that he was tempted to help out a fellow officer (which he absolutely wanted to do) this video shows that there is a real pressure on the cops to hold themselves accountable or risk getting fired.
@@elijahtucker7938 the cameras show that, are the likely reason for that. They even talk about how this likely would have been different if there we no cameras.

Body cams are one of the best things. They prove what happened and keep shenanigans to a minimum. They protect both the police and public.

Disagree. They always call in plates when they're pulling someone over, and he was more than happy to tell him he's no longer a cop anymore. The camera would've changed nothing.

@@cedricnicholson7446 Keep living in fantasy land.
The general public really doesn't realize what a brotherhood is. More than likely he isn't sad because he is being forced to arrest him because he has a bodycam, he's sad that one of his brothers was stupid enough to recklessly drive drunk and endanger lives and he has to arrest him now. Grow up and think critically or don't speak unless you have more than half of an idea of what's going on next time.
The stark difference in the arresting officer's behavior before and after he learned the guy was a cop is completely inexcusable. That's infuriating.
EXACTLY!
He was unprofessional to begin with, even the other cops weren’t speaking like he was. You can tell when it’s a reg civilian he prob abuses his power.
Cops need replaced by Ai
He absolutely approached it like an ass. And then stopped being an ass after he found out.....which in the end...makes him a bigger ass, because he stopped being an ass...
Yes. Black man would of had 3 officers on top of him to get him handcuffed. Also would have been forced into the cruiser. FACT
The fact that the drunk cop would "take care of his own" the way he said he would makes me worried about what else he covers up for others
You can tell he was also a drug dealing cop and a cop for all the wrong reasons, guarantee this dude ran a criminal enterprise while being a cop in Miami of all places....
These guys would have if not for the body cams. That's why he told him not to talk etc
Well unfortunately he does exactly what most other cops do for each other. They are loyal and forgiving towards each other even if they know that its wrong and they will still reluctantly participate like a pack of wolves, pussyfooting around. Its one of the main reasons why there should NO immunity from them catching some justice when they fuck around like they do
Until you carry a badge you won't understand we're a Brotherhood and when one falls its painful.
@@wildwest5436 Oh I get that it's sad. I love police. I will never understand that feeling because I was rejected when I applied to be one. I'm just saying he shouldn't feel above the law like that.
Thank you for not letting him off the hook. How he expected a fellow police officer to let him go shows how reckless he is
or how normal it is to expect that, every time one of these videos gets out its so clear how common this is. Utter corruption how he advises him to be quiet etc.
Of course he was let go. We just don’t see it on camera.
@@pjjj8117 💯 Oh Absolutely! “We protect our own” “Keep it under wraps”
@@pjjj8117 Do you really believe that ?
The complete demeanor change after they confirm he’s a cop is ridiculous to me. Either someone is breaking the law or they’re not. Cops don’t talk nice to us like that when we make mistakes. They treat us like shit, they don’t afford us the same kind of sympathy this man received.
Rejecting the ACAB mentality that's prevalent in our culture for the last ten years might go a long way. I've had one encounter with an officer who acted as you describe. One. And I did some dumb shit in my 20s like a lot of the people in these videos.
I've been arrested 8 times and every single officer that arrested me was polite and respectful. Some of the officers that arrested me would even have a conversation with me while I was handcuffed sitting in the back seat. Last time I got arrested for DUI on 5/14/23 I was arrested by California Highway Patrol (CHP) I was actually sitting in the front seat handcuffed. I forgot the reason I was sitting in the front seat I was hammered and I actually spit in his car because he arrested me and I was pissed. Anyway on the way to jail I mentioned that I have family that use to be cops and we just had a conversation while going to jail he was actually pretty cool. His cruiser was a dodge charger.
@@User_92020 you want a cookie. like tf?
It really depends on the city, i got arrested for domestic violence charges in mesa AZ and the cops that did it didn't raise their voice once even when they had ARs aimed at my head when i was coming out of the house. The dude that took me to jail even asked if i was ok and we ended up getting in a conversation about fentanyl, i learned that day that a single pill in my state goes for around 75 cents to a dollar and that he usually busts people at least 3 times a week with it. Ive never met a douchbag cop in my city but ive seen them on channels like this typically in the midwest or southeast coast.
They don’t want him to say anything before he was read his rights because they wanted to make sure the charges stick so they could get him convicted and not let go on a technicality. They’re trained on how to arrest other officers. South Florida isn’t a place where this kind of behavior of another officer is tolerated, despite the past. If they didn’t know who he was and they saw those guns in the back of his car they could have possibly shot him.
This guy is not only an embarrassment to his department, police everywhere, and to himself, but I guarantee you his momma is disappointed as hell.

Eh, I can understand it to an extent. If you as a cop were to arrest another cop, it is a harsh reminder of how you must not conduct yourself, and a realization that this guy may have been broken by the job. That is not a justification for his behavior and choices, but it is a show of respect, but the guy still ruined his life in the end regardless, the arresting officer even told him he isn't a cop anymore, so there was no bull crapping through this from the get go.

Cope 😂😂😂, women are the most privilege people there are in America. Especially attractive ones.
I know I wouldn't have gotten the same treatment because I'm not a policeman. A 73 years old and I've been driving for 56 years and never injured anybody or cause an accident but I have almost been killed by a reckless driver. However, this was as close as you get to it didn't happen. I've been stopped once for not giving a lane change signal when I thought there was no one behind me ... and given a sobriety test but I wasn't drinking and I was told that I failed. I stopped drinking alcohol socially 50 years ago.
I’m from a retired law enforcement family and I’m so grateful for body worn cameras. For bad cops, they’re the only thing keeping them honest and often the thing that weeds them out of the force.
They've also cut down on bogus complaints from people who are just pissed they got arrested. But yeah I'll always remember the video of that Baltimore cop recording himself planting drugs because he didn't know about the 30 second buffer
Yea but a lot of departments don't have body cams and many don't require that they be on at all times so there is a lot that happens that never gets recorded
"for bad cops" lol
Any cop who treats other cops more favourable than the general public, is a bad cop. People look after their own in all walks of life, human nature.

That's terrifying. One law for them another law for us.
Drunk driving is infuriating, especially when it’s a cop who you would assume should know better.
Imagine how many cops were 'let off' before body cams.
I know a cop who was let off for speeding so many times, then a highway patrol pulled him over going 90 in a 70 and he did not let the "I'm a cop" influence him in anyway, if you get caught with an infraction against you it's your job! He lowered the amount made it a warning so this cop could keep his job! Happened in a time when cops are hard to come by.
"be quiet, don't say another word" Wow. I've NEVER heard a cop say that to a civilian before. He said that like he was giving advice, not giving a command. He knew the guy's best chance was to not say ANYTHING. Remember this people. NEVER speak to the cops when you're in custody. NEVER!!!!!
I have. "Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law".
That’s common sense, no? Who in their right mind would talk to the cops lol
I always tell my older kids to never speak to the police with out a lawyer if they are going to question you about a crime!
Fish would never get caught if he doesn't open his mouth
Def advice. Pos..all of them.
The amount of special treatment is concerning.
He felt so bad for his drunk buddy :(
That's strange. I've never heard an officer whisper under his breath like that to a perpetrator and advise them not to say anything. I wonder why he did that?
Why do you think
If I were him I'd tell him to stfu too. I wouldn't want to be dragged into an internal cop-on-cop drama.
he told him to shut up loudly three times, obviously when you are in a high speed chase your adrenaline is going wild and it is an incredibly dangerous situation.
@Victoria F The guy was drunk and driving dangerously with all sorts of tactical gear in his car. Any officer that turns a blind eye to this sort of blatant disregard for the law and human life shouldn't be a cop. Loyalty and brotherhood have nothing to do with it. Anyone who thinks otherwise shouldn't be in LE. Sincerely, someone in LE.
definitely defiant 2 different meanings..
The most disgusting part is that he pulls the "We're supposed to take care of our own" card. It is also insanely unfair that he got "a written warning for speeding". 111 mph is more than just speeding, that is reckless driving.
Usually when a driver is charged with bigger charges they let go of the original smaller charge. It’s not just the professional courtesy.
That's outright dangerous driving, 111 mph!!! Goodness, I can't even believe he pulled the "we take care of one another" card!!!! By him saying that he makes all the countless good men and women of law enforcement look remarkably bad!!!
not only that but probably a felony just by running away from the cops
...and also "misdemeanor drunk driving" , what the hell is that? drunk driving is a criminal felony charge to the rest of us!!!
@@MrDandaman137 in most states drunk driving is a misdemeanor unless someone is hurt
Imagine how this would have gone if they didn’t all have cameras. The main arresting officer even said as much towards the end.
“A WRITTEN TRAFFIC WARNING FOR SPEEDING” 100 miles an hour!!!!!!!!!!!! Unbelievable
Their conversation in the vehicle… disgusting, if there were no cameras there would have been no trace of this happening
The fuck? Drunk cop asked to get let go, the cop says no. Are you dead ass stupid? Plus THERE ARE CAMERAS. And always will be from now till the end of time so take your head out of ur ass for me for a second
Exactly that’s why body cams are super important
This is why it's said cops act like gangs
You're not biased at all
Wrong. The officer knew it was being recorded so it would be admissible as it came AFTER the Miranda warnings. He read the Miranda off a card instead of memory, and by keeping the guy quiet before Miranda ENSURES EVERYTHING the idiot says will be used against him.
The fact that they insist on a bad cop getting caught not saying a word should say everything you need to know about speaking to the police.
agreed - "keep everything under wraps" the arresting officer said...
The officer wanted to make sure he was read his rights first before he said anything or was questioned. He wanted to be sure that this guy didn't get out of this with an attorney. This officer did the right thing.
@@davidlewis3072 kept under wraps as in confiscated equipment. It’s not meant thrown under the rug it meant they kept away from him. At least that’s how iv heard the expression used
@@algray8389 and your exactly right. It taints the investigation to have him speak before his rights are read and since he knows better they actually would prefer a attorney with him as well.

@@douglasfrankel9566 what kind of wishy washy procedures do they apply to non-police officers?
Or maybe it changed out of shame and fear of one of their own committing such crime. Listen to their voices, they are disappointed and angry. I'd say they were more taken aback by the claims. Why don't you try to humanize the ones who at least TRY their best to keep us safe and stop labeling every cop as how the media does.

The only reason this guy got in trouble is because of body cams. This is a PERFECT example of how bodycams keep cops accountable.
Body cams keep them accountable as long as it is kept on and rolling throughout the shift.
Complete BS. I’ve seen cops lose their jobs for DUI way before body cams.
They keep both cops and citizens/media accountable. Many lies are silenced after body cams reveal the truth
@@MrRolyat98 Yes that has happened, but it doesn’t mean his statement is false. The way he told him to not say another word tells you he doesn’t want another cop to get I. Trouble. Do you have examples of cops saying that to normal citizens? Learn how logic and fallacies work.
no camera no crime
This is why cameras are good, the police need to be policed. A strong moral code is required to be in a position of power but not abuse it.
In the 1980's-90"s, it would have been a 50/50 whether they took him home or charged him.
Eh, I can assure you this guy would have been arrested regardless of the cameras. As a cop myself, this attitude and what he did makes my blood boil. I would throw the book at this guy, and based on the arresting officer's attitude, he would too. There are many however that would have been let go if not for the cameras. That said, just because you hear a cop say "I would let you go but this is recorded " that doesn't mean that statement was true and that it's a corrupt cop being held back by the camera. When we arrest our own, it's an extremely convenient excuse to shift blame.

Unbelievable. If anything, off duty cops should be held to a higher standard!
Yep, agreed. We used to have a place we could go to drink, dance, have a good time like anyone else. Cop bars are as real as you can imagine them. Almost no "cop bar" is ever "JUST" a cop bar. One thing David and Sarah the owners/bartenders always said. Have fun, cut lose, have a good time, there's a tab. But if things go south, you're out of here and people will find out you are a police officer. Made sense even in 92. Imagine getting in trouble even at a cop bar and somehow keeping that information under a rug? There is some social media detectives that really should be getting a salary lol.

He fucked is life more than anyone else ever could. Now you think they should get a harsher sentence? Sounds like hypocrisy to me
It concerns me that the arresting cop is so conflicted about arresting another cop. And I was a cop for 10 years. If his supervisor wasn’t there this dude makes it sound like he’d let him go.
@BadMuther That's what really pisses me off here, this "we're brothers, we take care of each other" attitude. Take care = Let cops get away with committing crimes.
No he doesn’t. The cop getting arrested says that’s what he would do. The arresting cop says well unfortunately that’s not what I’m going to do. Something along those lines. And of course he’s conflicted. As officers they should know better. They seem disappointed and rightfully so.
But the arresting cop was so horribly aggressive on the initial intake.

Wrong, he had not mirandized him yet. Anything said beforehand may not have held in court.
Exactly, cops are above the law and that's what every single one of them believe, they also believe if they break the law there brothers in blue always get them out of it, fuck the thin blue line and fuck all the cops. There's a reason they are hated.

The amount of times they told him to keep quiet, but if its ANYONE else they get MAD at you for not answering questions.
Cuffed in the front, he got to keep his phone because " he's a cop" such BULLSHIT!!!
Do cops forget the responsibility they have to uphold both on and off duty? They should know how dangerous this is for themselves and for others, especially the officers in pursuit smh
He was drunk. Not that that’s an excuse; he has even less of an excuse as any random citizen because he knows the dangers involved and how incredibly illegal fleeing at extreme speeds while intoxicated is.
I’m sure he actually does. Life choices and life events can ruin anyone
As if the majority of cops do the exact same as this guy. Ok reddit
Cops don’t really think period lol. Can’t expect great decisions from high school rejects
Absolutely they do. He should have complied instantly
Telling him to be quiet and saying, "I'm not gonna ask any questions," to help his case is absolutely ridiculous. If he were anyone else, they wouldn't be treating him so kindly. They serve and protect themselves. Disgusting.
Once he said he didn't want to answer any questions it was kinda over at that point. Take the dude to jail, draw his blood and do everything by the book. That's exactly what they did and as a result the other cop didn't get away with it. Do it all by the book to make sure he does not get of on a technicality or something. And dude got fired and trialed. Probably will never work as a cop again.

The not asking questions is a standard requirement after the right is invoked to my understanding
@@miikavuorio6925 You are correct, but what angelo is referring to is the arresting officer specifically telling the suspect to stop talking so that he doesn't say anything stupid.

His first words were very telling “I’m a cop” meaning he fully believes that cops don’t have to follow laws. Far too many of his fellow officers share that view.

At least the response he got was "You used to be".
Right, he was shocked that he was even being pulled over. You can tell he's done this several times before and they just let him go.
Firefighters can be jerks too. Had one that bullied a small business because he thinks he is entitled to free shit. His kid bullies other kids at school but gets away with it.
AMEN .
You can tell the responding officer is extremely disappointed that one of his brothers in blue made such a poor decision...thank you officer for your integrity and standards to uphold the law no matter what!
From the beginning of the stop that Sargent you could tell wasn't wanting to do anything. One of those "we take care of each other" cops that make things bad for the rest and bring people down on cops.
Yeah but notice how protective he became when he found out he was a cop. Directing the drunk to remain silent and not to say anything. Normally cops love when you start blabbering. He made an exception here.

When cops do things like this they should face harsher penalties then the general public.
When Cops commit a crime they're supposed to get a harsher sentence because they are held at a higher standard.

@@outlawbrian9873 must not be common sense since you just said, “fail and you’re screwed.” If you didn’t know this, there is no passing or failing these tests, from the moment you step out of your vehicle they start noting every piece of evidence/every action you do to incriminate you. Hence why you can look up videos of ppl completing these tests “successfully” and still get arrested bc their behavior/movements indicates impairment between each test. They say over and over again “but I passed” which only proves my point
The whole point of the tests are for the police to build evidence. It’s up to your digression, but more than likely you won’t pass and they know that. It’s just to protocol.
If you are watching these kinds of video you would know that even law officers advise against taking field sobriety tests as they are totally at the discretion of the officer in charge .If he doesnt like you he can fail you and vice versa. The test is subjective therefore there is no set pass or fail. watch more police stop videos and you will come across the subject

There's countless videos on KZhead showing drunk/impaired officers who are only being taken in because there was absolutely no way to sweep it under the rug, and they imply as much on the recordings. 99% of the time, they do just call someone to take them home and never report a thing.
