Cop gets caught lying in real time. Tried moving the goal posts to justify his actions.
We are in Midland Texas where Midland Police Department Officer Gill pulls the driver over under the absolute certainty that he saw the driver holding a phone in his hand.
The driver immediately points to his dashboard, showing the phone is securely mounted. Left with nowhere to hide, Officer Gill is forced to admit his mistake on camera, stating, "I stand corrected."
Under the Fourth Amendment, once the officer realizes the initial reason for the stop was invalid, the driver should be free to go. Instead, Officer Gill pivots immediately. Determined to salvage the stop and force the driver to identify, he suddenly claims the driver was speeding.
When the driver presses him for proof—asking if he was clocked on radar or paced—Officer Gill admits he has no data. Instead, he claims he "visually estimated" that the truck was going exactly "10% over the speed limit." Mind you, the officer was parked at a complete standstill. The driver calls out the absurdity, pointing out that his speed was a cautious 16 mph in a 20/25 (30 was the confirmed limit) mph zone.
Recognizing that the officer is fishing, the driver firmly refuses to hand over his driver's license. He rightly argues that because the original cause was a mistake and the secondary cause is completely fabricated, the officer lacks the reasonable articulable suspicion required by law to demand identification. He demands a supervisor.
Sergeant Wilson (Badge #330) arrives on the scene and initially tries to back up his officer with a classic legal bluff: claiming that the traffic code allows police to pull anyone over just to check for a driver's license. The driver holds his ground, refusing to be intimidated.
Realizing the driver knows the law, won't back down, and that Officer Gill’s shifting allegations wouldn't hold up for a second in court, Sgt. Wilson quickly de-escalates and tells the driver he is free to go—without ever getting his ID.
Know your rights, keep your cool, and always roll recording. What do you think about how this driver handled the shifting goalposts?
I will say that while the Midland police did a terrible job due to their lack of understanding of the law, I have seen these types of situations get much worse. Officers threatening arrest and pulling people from cars. These guys never once did any of that, so perhaps there is hope in Midland.
Dude rips into tyrant officer who lied about the reason he pulled him over.
The video starts with Officer Nablo pulling over a motorcyclist right outside his own home. Right out of the gate, the officer asks didn't you hear me when I was trying to pull you over? The rider said no, because he has a Bluetooth speaker in his helmet. The officer falsely claims having helmet speakers is illegal (spoiler: it’s not). So this was off to a wonderful start.
When the rider directly asks, "Why are you pulling me over first?" the officer completely deflects, stating it's simply "to ID who you are." That is a massive red flag. Officers need reasonable articulable suspicion of a crime to initiate a traffic stop—they cannot just pull you over to demand papers and see who you are.
It isn't until long after the confrontation begins, after the officer has already demanded ID, that he walks to the back of the motorcycle to look for a retroactive justification. He then tries to claim that the plate has to be visible and says he can't see the plate. The rider pushes back calling out it officer for lying.
After getting the ID and running the plate the officer did happen to get lucky as he discovered the vehicle registration expired , meaning it is expired.
The rider immediately calls out the absolute hypocrisy and shifting narrative:
The officer first claimed he couldn't see the license plate at all.
Yet, the officer simultaneously claimed he pulled the rider over because he knew the registration on that very plate was expired.
How can you pull someone over for an expired plate that you just admitted you couldn't even see until after you detached him from the bike? It makes zero sense.
Failure to Yield or Safe Stopping Point?
Officer Nablo tries to claim the rider was "failing to yield" and evading the stop because he didn't pull over the exact second the lights went on. However, the rider stands his ground, explaining that he did not flee; he simply continued riding a short distance to his own home where he felt safe and where he had multiple security cameras recording the interaction.
This doesn't seem to be a random encounter, either. The rider alleges a disturbing pattern of personal harassment from Officer Nablo, claiming this exact same officer previously came onto his property and threatened to shoot his dog just for barking inside the house.
Eventually, a supervisor/sergeant steps in to de-escalate the hostile officer. The supervisor confirms that the citations for the expired registration will be sent by mail and that the rider has 10 days to contest them. When the rider demands to file a formal complaint for harassment, the supervisor instructs him that individual officer complaints must be taken up directly with the Chief of Police.
The rider made it clear this is going straight to court and social media.
What do you think? Was this officer legitimately enforcing traffic laws, or was he a tyrant fishing for a reason to flex his badge?

It appears that a White female police officer was severely BEATEN by a mob of Black teens... including with what appears to be a Roman Candle.
This is hard to watch.
Kid owns 2 cops with his understanding of the law and the rights of his middle finger.
The situation began when an officer with the Little Egg Harbor Police Department pulled over after witnessing a pedestrian walking down the shoulder of the road. According to the officer, the individual flipped him the finger twice as his cruiser drove past. Refusing to ignore the gesture, the officer confronted the pedestrian, demanding to know what their problem was.
What started as a verbal disagreement quickly spiraled. The pedestrian immediately asserted their right to walk away, repeatedly asking, "Am I free to go?"
He claimed the pedestrian was being legally detained for "acting strange" and "causing a public disturbance." When the pedestrian tried to continue walking, the officer physically grabbed their arm, leading to a tense struggle where the pedestrian began shouting for help. A second officer arrived shortly after to act as a cover unit.
Throughout the interaction, the pedestrian fiercely protected his rights, arguing that cursing and flipping off a police officer are entirely protected under the First Amendment—and legally, he is correct.
The backup officer attempted to play mediator, explaining that while the pedestrian wasn't being charged with a crime, the primary officer had the right to detain them to investigate "behavior that's out of the ordinary" and ensure public safety.
After a lengthy back-and-forth about the Fourth Amendment and what constitutes an unlawful order, the pedestrian handed over their ID (which I think he should not have) to clear the investigation. The officers returned it, giving a warning to stay out of the roadway, and the pedestrian walked away—but not before taking down badge numbers and promising a lawsuit.
Federal courts have consistently ruled that expressing vulgar gestures or language toward police officers, while disrespectful, is protected speech under the First Amendment. It does not, on its own, constitute reasonable articulable suspicion that a crime has been, is being, or is about to be committed.
