Who cares? Cops can’t plant evidence. End of story.
If they did, even if the rest of the bust was legitimate, the entire thing goes out the window. If they had an actual reason to arrest him, they should have followed procedure and the law rather than going around trying to plant evidence.
That user is a straight-up Nazi. Look at their comment history:
I’m not. I’m just saying that it hurts my feelings to have this guy be called white. There are so many mixed race white supremacists out there, and they make white people look bad. Why are we calling this guy white?
There is a video of an officer planting evidence. That should be the end of the story. But for you it is not.
You trying to control the debate shapiro-style. You create a fictional story, first in conditionals (“if they suspected … then they had every reason”), and by asking questions (“Did he refuse a breathalyzer test at the scene? Was one offered?”). Now there is a vivid image in the readers head, that you use to derail the discussion into a completely different direction (“Bottom line here: What was this man’s blood alcohol level?”).
But the counter to this is very simple: Instead of following your tangent, I will simply un-derail the topic by asking something like:
“Why do you think the officer felt the need to plant evidence?”
Just for giggles I also asked GPT4 oppinion on the subject. His response
To support the officer’s actions and shift the blame onto the accused individual, leveraging the scenario as described would involve a number of stratagems, focusing heavily on hypothetical questions, assumptions, and diverting attention from the core issue. Here’s how such tactics might be applied:
Emphasize Uncertainty and Technicalities: Begin by stressing the complexities and procedural nuances of DUI arrests. Highlight the importance of blood alcohol content (BAC) testing and the legal protocols involving field sobriety and breathalyzer tests. This shifts the debate from the ethics of planting evidence to the technicalities of DUI arrests, muddying the waters.
Frame Hypotheticals as Probabilities: Use hypothetical situations—such as the accused refusing a breathalyzer test or having a reason for arrest due to a suspended license—as almost certain probabilities. This reframes the narrative, suggesting that the officer had just cause for suspicion, thereby indirectly justifying their misconduct.
Construct a False Dilemma: Imply that there are only two possibilities - the accused was either guilty of DUI or not, completely sidestepping the issue of the officer planting evidence. This narrows the debate’s focus to the accused’s potential guilt, diverting attention from the officer’s actions.
Utilize Red Herrings: Introduce unrelated facts (e.g., the suspended license) to distract from the primary issue of evidence tampering. By focusing on these details, you can create a narrative where the officer’s actions seem minor compared to the accused’s alleged law-breaking behavior.
Through these strategies, the conversation can be steered towards scrutinizing the accused’s behavior and the procedural aspects of DUI arrests, rather than the ethical implications of a police officer planting evidence. Such tactics, while effective in shifting debate focus, rely heav…
My marriage was a set up to force me to have children and then ruin my life after my children died. I wouldn’t be surprised if my husband killed my son while babysitting him, and then just swapped him for someone else’s baby. I was the only source of income and had to return to work six weeks after giving birth. He was unemployed and agreed to watch our son. Before we separated, he told me that he had me raped in my sleep to make our son. There were times when he would get so jealous of our son, even shoving his crib across the room with the baby in it, at one point. He ruined my life, but I can’t afford a lawyer, and there is nowhere to talk about it now, except Reddit.
Sometimes a country you perceive as dangerous is actually the last place some American gang will follow you. In 2020, I was stabbed by a white, female gang member who presents as a large frame male. I had years of threats and harassment follow me after meeting this person and being subsequently stabbed. That person doesn’t speak Spanish. I went to Ecuador to escape the bullying. No one followed me to Ecuador. I was not harassed or mistreated there. Everyone thinks Ecuador is dangerous. It wasn’t. I walked through the town of Guayaquil from my hotel to the airport, and no one hurt me or harassed me.
you mean the shapiro thing? I actually thought you intentionally used a shapiro-style argument. I didn’t think you’d take it as an insult.
No one has proven it was sealed. If it is revealed to have been opened, then this man is guilty of having an opened container in his vehicle, as well as driving with a suspended license.
Now this is a much more interesting line of thought. It doesn’t rely on reframing and red herrings. Instead this arguments directly attacks the central point. This is much better.
So it looks like you have some trouble understanding how conversation works. Someone accused you of being a nazi. A bit out of left field if you aren’t digging through someone’s comment history. Your defense to that was to say it was not World War 2. The topic at hand is whether or not you are a nazi and your defense is that it’s not World War 2. Not “I am not a nazi”, but the go to neonazi defense of “umm actually the nazi party was dissolved in 1945”. It’s just sad.
The women can’t be Nazis defense, that’s a bold move. Since you’re describing all the things you are that makes it impossible to be a Nazi, do you happen to be 36 years old as well? Or is the 88 in your name just your favorite number for some other reason?
I haven’t turned 36 yet. I will soon. There is an 88 in my name because I was born in 1988. There is also a dragon in my username because 1988 is year of the dragon. Are you done attacking me? Sorry you’re looking for a Nazi. I’m not here to fit your fetish.
How funny, I have so many men leaving me their frustrated comments, in which they call me a Nazi. I seem to attract a lot of men who are looking for a Nazi. You should find yourself a different subreddit.
Yeah, if it was opened, it definitely should not have been in the vehicle, without being stored in a locked glovebox, or trunk, according to Florida law.
And was he charged with “open container”? The defense attorney says they describe the container as open in the police report, if that’s true, and if the bottle really was sealed when the officer found it, then it’s misconduct despite the specific charges.
Yes when they turned off their body cameras it was interfering which is an additional crime to planting the evidence and the cops should be charged every time unless a third party unaffiliated with the police or courts can verify there was a valid reason to stop documenting the arrest.
Btw the sealed bottle is heard breaking when the police open it in the linked video in the article at 1:05 you silly billy.
What does the contents of the cup have to do with the cops breaking the seal and reporting it as open. That’s not a typo that’s misrepresenting the facts aka lying, an example of a typo is writing contets instead of contents not reporting the sealed bottle was open. From that point the report is suspect because we already know they were lying based on the video evidence.
And then on top of that turning off their bodycams to prevent saving further evidence of their crimes? It could be a cup full of lighter fluid and the cops still broke the law and tried to cover it up.
Well, I’m sorry you’re racist, but placing your statement of such views in a comment reply to my own comment, is not the place to discuss it. I suggest you find a therapist.
There is a lot of bullshit here… NAL, but you can make a case that they intended to drink, or if they had a non-0 BAC, you can make a case that they were too impaired to drive. While the 0.08% limit is a “standard”, it’s not a hard and fast line, from what I’m aware of, but NAL. I would assume it’d be hard as shit to make a case that someone was too impaired with a BAC of 0.01%… But that doesn’t mean you can’t try.
You’re literally arguing that they could drink it, so they were intending to drink it? Do you have any knives in your house? Shall we call the authorities because you could murder someone, and therefore intend to murder someone?
I think my intention got mixed up here. I think it’s all bullshit. But essentially what you said is closer to how the law is written.
To be totally clear, the ruling that an officers assessment of someone being impaired is taken as highly, if not higher, as an objective BAC here, is bullshit. It basically means that if they think you are drunk, you are drunk. That’s insane to me.
I had a former cop explain to me once that he had an absolutely fool proof test involving tilting sometimes head and seeing if their retinas jiggle or something. I kinda assumed that it was bullshit, but if he thought that was the case, then he had the “right” to issue a DUI.
My point is that the BAC being really low is not an instant case closed in the way that it should be. Which is highlighting just how ridiculous things can get in these cases and still go to court.

She’s not going to read any of that because she’s a white supremacist as evidenced by her comments on this post.
ETA: She came here when her Reddit account got suspended: Another Redditor accused me of not knowing my blood type, before trying to accuse me of being a blood type that doesn’t even exist. This is what it looks like to prove your blood type to a bully.

The trick is not to follow their tangents. They hate it when you point out their fallacies and rhethoric trickery.

Ahh. The “If it’s after 1945, it’s not naziism, it’s sparkling fascism” defense.
Nothing in this article, or my comments, has anything to do with Nazis. I think you should seek mental health care.

I’ve explained this to you in another thread, Nazi is an ideology. ANYONE can be a Nazi. Male/Female/Cathololic/German/Not German or otherwise.
Rule 2.
Source? This certainly applies if the container has been previously opened, but an unopened, sealed container should be fine.
Yeah, if it was opened, it definitely should not have been in the vehicle, without being stored in a locked glovebox, or trunk, according to Florida law.
You don’t need to be a Nazi
States do not have a law stating where alcohol is to be transported.
MOST states have laws regarding open containers.

You ever open a sealed bottle like that with a metal or plastic lid? You hear that crackcrackcrackcrack sound in the video when she turns the lid?
That’s the sound of the bottle being cracked open.

The fact of the matter is the driver had no open alcohol in the vehicle until the officer placed it there.
