A Marion County (Florida) Sheriff’s Deputy saw a couple sitting in their car, on their own property, where they were building a new “barndominium” in the middle of a large field behind their home. The deputy pulled onto the property, got out of his police cruiser, approaching the couple, who were sitting in their car eating a meal, as it was raining. There had been no report of criminal activity. The deputy just thought they looked suspicious and that they could be trespassing.

He was trying to cause trouble from the get go. And the thug was the one acting stupid. The thug should be the one to be cuffed and sitting in the back of a thug police car.
It’s a good thing he doesn’t deliver pizza.
You would think all this would be in training procedures. 6 months to become police officer and know law rules policies is just non sense. Takes lawyer years to become lawyer
i think your beard is nice ✌️
80% of the people in any trade suck.. sometime I'm in the 80%.
This cop is wrong. The mailbox has the address that matches his 🆔. The cops mess up just bought them their house.
How stupid is this idiot goofys like this dumbell should NEVER BECOME COPS they have the i.q of a rock 🪨 and can't think on there own this moron couldnt fathom he was wrong
Plus in the state of Florida anybody can carry a weapon concealed without a permit. And who in the hell puts a gun in the crack of there ass. He thought he had drugs.
Thank goodness a more reasonable and experienced police officer showed up to save this guy's career. 😂
"How do I know its your property?" Lol
Awesome cop education! Thank you!
These people should be happy the deputy was looking out for their property. What if these two weren’t property owners and was up to something nefarious. You anti-cop people are clueless.
16:02 is this cop clueless? The new construction address wouldn’t have an official address yet, as it’s still under construction. That’s why he has the original address on the drivers license. Are these cops this bad in Marion County?!? Like this should be common sense. And yeah the cop is pretending like he tried to have a consensual conversation at first when the first words out his mouth were “do you own this?”
through the entire event the cop pretends the two people are stupid
I haven't checked but Marion County is an upscale FL County and I'd bet they have a register of deeds website and/or Tax Collector site that lists the ownership of properties. A simple online search can be run and avoid all this calamity.
Oh it was racial profiling. I bet if it was a white couple this would have gone down differently. He was just aching to find a charge. What a disgrace.
Cops are infuriatingly stupid.
Crazy story
Like why do cops roll up on people inside their own vehicles just minding their own business
Cops would avoid a lot of lawsuits and Ridiculous videos of themselves. If they would just leave people alone just leave people alone. Go fight crime real crime do better. You guys are absolutely ridiculous on a regular basis !!!.
LEO's earn the hate every single day.
Cop went to detention because he was black.
Disagree that it wasn't racial profiling. He went onto the property with suspicion, as you say, and with intent to investigate. The second the window rolled down and he could see who he was dealing with, that suspicion went through the roof. You could hear it in his voice when he questioned him about whether he owned the property. He absolutely did NOT believe that this man could own that property. Profiling.
How does he know it's not there property?
I don’t think there was any racial profiling going on, police just treat everyone like crap!
This shit gets worse everyday! Who do they think they are. 😓😡🙏❤️🇺🇸
Would and ID have to be provided?
I guess state issued ID that matches the property your on isnt enough to prove you live there these days
I must have been SO difficult for this idiot cop to apologize!!
I'm at 24:26 the man is upset, ok… understandable, but no where is this racism, questionable approach, but our officers are proactive in our country and it's perfectly fine. You wanna know how, guess who's moving in. This case if brought, should be thrown out. I'm betting it will.
The only place the cop has integrity is on the side of the patrol car
Lucky at least they got the construction paid for 😅😅😅
Racial profiling still exist and will never end.
If you aint white, you aint right.
They have cut off the Facebook comments
