re: Police release video of Bucks player Sterling Brown arrest

Most here, but not all, will see whatever fits their agenda or bias.

Sure, Sterling Brown wasn’t parked correctly. Some would say it warranted the officer’s actions in calling for backup, and not allowing him to move the vehicle. Others might say, the officer already had the plates, and if he was concerned about the vehicle not obstructing the pathway of a relatively empty parking lot, he could’ve told the guy to move it while he writes him a ticket.

Regardless, my questions are based on whether the escalation following take your hands out of your pockets” and subsequent arrest was a means to trigger a search of the inside of the vehicle. Prior to the arrest, the police were looking inside the vehicle for items in plain sight through the windows. Prior to the handcuffs and taser, at points it appeared to me he put his hands in his pockets numerous times, with no incident. With the circumstances considered, I don’t believe the officers believed that he was a threat.
