Gove this video a like… That's an order! You hear me? An order!

A person with power threatening police should be a crime in itself.

It’s disgusting how he tries to leverage his ill wife for sympathy. If he loved his wife he wouldn’t be drinking and driving.

The fact that the officers even considered that they could be fired for stopping and arresting the drunk mayor is insane. It shows how terrible the mayor is and possibly how terrible their higher ups are because they have no faith that their bosses will have their back.

Threatening a police officer in the course of their duty is a criminal offence. How did these mayors NOT get charged !!

People in positions of power should be held MORE accountable for their actions than the average citizen.

"At the end of the day I have to do my job regardless of who it is." Those are the words of an honest cop. Thanks for guys like that upholding the law and protecting the public from drunken, corrupt public officials.

It’s actually heartbreaking how the cops have a mental breakdown, huge respect

It's simple: people who abuse their authority this way should be held accountable by losing their positions on top of the legal consequences of their actions. These people are not worthy of having these positions in the first place.

Imagine a work environment where ur scared to do ur job because you’ll get fired. No wonder our current system promotes so much corruption.

Pro Tip: If you don’t want to be treated like a “common criminal” you probably shouldn’t commit crimes like one.

I am an officer and there was a time when I stopped a reported erratic driver. When I made contacts with the individual I saw it was the fire chief for my town. Luckily for me the chief was a stand up man and told me he made a bad choice and would do whatever was needed. Had zero issues at all and even after his arrest ordeal he found me and thanked me for being professional and not attempting to handle things differently. I will remember that forever. Even people with integrity make bad choices it’s all about how you handle it. That encounter could have turned ugly. It is a very difficult position to be in but at the end of the day it is just another person. Can’t handle things in a different manner because of who it is. I understand the fear of the officers though.

They need to be removed IMMEDIATELY. What a disgrace these people are. That first guy, the MAYOR, is pathetic. I would be FURIOUS if i lived there. That woman cop is amazing, not taking his BS.

the woman pleading to be taken instead of the mayor has me rolling.. she had the whole hero sacrifice arc in her head for a mayor who endangers his citizens by driving drunk.

I hate this. It's so dirty that politicians can threaten cops like this for only doing their job.

The mayor was essentially given a slap on the wrist. His fine is inconsequential to the amount of money he has.

The officers talking amongst themselves saying like "they are going to be fired" or "will have to go back to school now" isn't negative conversation. This is a very difficult situation and the way government works you never know what will happen when you are trying to do your job as a law enforcement! These officers operated superbly!!! No indicators that they were trying to circumvent their duties!!! Great job officers!!!

A $25 fine for drunken driving and threatening police officers, crazy. Isn't it amazing how politicians seem to be above the law.

Asplin - you did a damn good job, respect to you for not being intimidated by this criminal

The fact that they were all so timid around the mayor speaks volumes. I'm sure he'd be driving home if they didn't have body cams.

“Do You Know Who I Am” Clown 😳 Lmao 😂🤣🤣🤣🤣😭

The mayor should be charged with DWI and all that, yeah, but the fact that he's low key trying to threaten the cops jobs should be one of those "Under color of authority" threats. Charge him, arrest him, and sue him. Then FIRE HIM.

To anyone who believes his concern for his wife is genuine, its not. This is a very common tactic people use to distract from a situation their in. It's a power play.

The fact that the police waffled over this so much exemplifies exactly why the public doesn't trust them. If they don't have faith in the law protecting them for doing the right thing, why should we?

Third video is the literal "weak people create hard times" situation. Chief, Manager and all bending to a corrupt mayor.

There should be a law that a mayor can't give orders while under arrest. So ridiculous. And they should get bribery charges when they ask them to turn the cameras off.

body cams are the best thing thats ever happened

I find it absolutely unbelievable that both cops would even mention the risk of loosing their jobs only because they did exactly what they get paid for. If any politician like this guy in the country where I live would even threaten cops for not giving him special treatment, they would first laugh at him and then take him to jail, and add the threat to the list of charges.

The fear of the police in the first part shows how deep are the root of corruption in the system. Those guys deserve a promotion

This is why body cams are so important. It can protect the cop just as much as it can protect citizens. The second Mayor only said "I am not in trouble" to calm that woman down, in all fairness. That's why he also only said that his brake light was out.

Wichita Kansas resident here, I remember when this incident with the mayor happened, it was pretty despicable. Watching him conduct himself this way by calling his goon over the phone and acting like the one in control. The media didn’t do much to report this either, just tried sweeping it under the rug.

"take me to jail, not him. He's a good man." 😂 That's not how it works. I can't stand in for somebody on criminal charges.

Really?? Being fired for doing your job??? Thats just sickening to me. What an awful major this man. He should go to jail.

I am horrified that the cops think they will lose their jobs for doing their jobs. What kind of system is this?

I have a massive amount of respect for officers who, even knowing they could potentially lose their jobs, still do the right thing to protect citizens both on and off the road. It's people that like that that we NEED in our law enforcement system. People who aren't afraid to do what's right, even when it's hard. Props.

He's already being given more than anyone else would, and he's still outraged. Whew, the arrogance.

I've always wondered why the breathalyzer tests are voluntary, and they instead rely on some ancient tests which is hardly fair or accurate to determine if some is drunk or not. In my country the police just forces you to blow, and if you are over the limit you either walk the rest of the way with a ticket, or get to spend the night in jail.

If someone tell’s you “I’m the mayor” the officer should reply with “please smile 😁 you’re on camera” 😆

I hate how there’s so much hesitation anytime a police officer and any politician needs to be arrested. If all police officers treated every single suspect the same way, regardless of social status, there wouldn’t be worry of being fired. This is what decades of corruption produces.

The mayor being a smartass while fumbling around in his wallet providing the wrong cards is just magical.

Bro couldn't have gotten a more condecending officer too.

If He was this worried about the health of his wife, he would not be out with her in a vehicle while intoxicated.

It’s so sad seeing how scared they are of people in power

Politician- "I took the turn a bit wide" Woman he hit- "bitch you were going the wrong way" 😂😂

People in power should get longer sentences

The first supervisor was great, saying he will take the responsibility of the situation and the officers are doing their job well.

I am a police officer, and I would have arrested him on the spot for DUI and booked him in the jail on those related charges. He is still a citizen and subject to any and all laws as anyone else. Being fired by the mayor for doing your job would lead to a GIANT lawsuit. Shame on these police officers for second guessing.

Gotta respect the officers in the first clip. They knew they had to do their jobs, despite knowing that may be their last calls. They still did their jobs. They didn’t deserve to be fired, they deserve a raise.

All these guys need to be taken far away from any position of real power. Corrupt af.

The fact that Tom Henry is still in office and was re-elected after this is gross. Internet needs to do their thing.

Last dude is the worst of the worst. Dumping stuff from a rental when it’s for community residents only is basic theft. Why he was allowed to do this is disgusting and beyond preferential treatment. He’s the type of jerk that knows how to get away being cheap at someone else’s cost. It’s impossible to understand why anyone would ever vote for a crook like that but it’s happening every day.

I don't understand the logic. They think they're above the law because of what the do for work or which position they have? That's like a thief say "you can let me go because I'm a career criminal and the head of my gang" 🤦🏼‍♀️

My repect to those officers who think they are getting fired and still went ahead and do what they think is right

"You're under arrest for driving under the influence" , "...but I'm the mayor", "oh, so you should know better?" If it were up to me, anyone who serves the people should get way harsher punishments for breaking the law and taken out of their role immediately. If you can't follow the same laws you are responsible for upholding then you aren't fit for the position.

I love how the mayor kept saying “that’s an order” 😂 I don’t think your in the right situation to be making orders right now. I’m glad he had to spend six hours in a jail, he needs to know what it feels like.

I bet that lady that the mayor hit had one hell of a story for her family when she got home. "YOU WILL NEVER GUESS WHO I JUST WATCHED GET A DUI"

Lots of good stuff!! Thanks!!

You have to love how these politicians completely forget the reason they are in public office. It is to serve the people not themselves. Damn I hate corruption.

imagine what it was like in the old days before cameras.

Your videos are amazing, make more!!! Love the content, it's not the recycled junk that everyone else does.

As someone who lives in IN, Tom Henry certainly does not make me feel any safer being anywhere near Fort Wayne lmao

In the military (or at least the Marines) we were taught and reminded multiple times, if you see someone who is wrong, you call them out no matter how high their rank is and how low yours is. As long as you do it with a certain tact, you are basically immune to retaliation. The police should be taught this rather than turning a blind eye and creating corruption.

Being drunk clouds your judgement, but no one should think them self above the law just because of their status. I hate that "I'm going to punish you for doing your job without discriminating" mentality

I love the way Tom immediately thought he was in charge! 😂

"Take me instead of the mayor!" That women seriously thought she was going to offer herself as tribute. Living in her own Katniss fantasy.

These scumbags might get to avoid criminal punishment but I am glad you are sharing their faces on the internet so people know what they are doing.

These people should have their names shamed across the country. No one deserves to be under the leadership of anyone who thinks that their wrongdoings are above the law.

"THATS AN ORDER" He should be prosecuted for unlawful attempt to influence an officer

Dang it. Those coppers instantly shat their pants😂😂

This looks like a pretty damn stressful situation to be in as a police officer. Respect to the officers that said "regardless of who it is, I've got to do my job" that's an officer that is fully aware that just doing his/her job may cost him/her their job but went forward regardless.

I feel so bad for the officers. They were so afraid but i love that they talked it out and supporting each other

Much respect for those officers. Takes a strong person to go against the grain in such a field.. Soo much corruption.. disgusting how he can threaten them for doing their job.. anyone else would have the book thrown at them. Gad damn he should be absolutely fired and even jail time for corruption..

Being a politician sounds nice. Being able to say you’re going to do something then not do it. Being able to use your power to get away, when the average person would get thrown in jail. That’s the life.

Can you imagine how bad things were before body cameras

The fact that someone came out of their house and offered to be arrested is very telling of how corrupt that guy was.

a 70 year old drunk driver. That is the worst combination... The corruption of police and politicians is like this in every country.

i was not expecting to see my mayor on the channel LMFAO

At least the girl had some guts with the mayor. Why they so scared anyway?

The fact that they even hesitate to do their jobs just because the criminal is some old ass politician is crazyyyy

If the mayor was so concerned about his wife, maybe he should be in a condition to care for her.

That female cop has more balls than all the other cops put together.

It sucks living in a country with people like this. Everyone seems to believe if they get appointed to positions of authority they are not held to the same rules as the rest of society.

"how much have you had to drink" "me?" lol

Just the idea that these officers were fearful for jobs means a lot of officials should be fired.

This was really great to see. Especially the conversation among the cops showing how moral they all are.

If it weren't for the cams the mayor would have never been arrested.

That mayor, the first guy, I hope he got ousted from his mayor’s office.

Bring back public floggings for corrupt politicians.

I really appreciate the cops putting their jobs on the line to do the right thing.

It’s flabbergasting that once someone is an elected official, they think they’re given a Monopoly ‘Get Out of Jail Free’ card. It’s absolutely bonkers!

I always find it funny when someone gets asked how much they've had to drink and their answer is "me?"

"unfortunately (the mayor) left unharmed" you got yourself a sub my guy

These corrupt entitled officials are poison in a society and make me sick.

Body worn cameras are the BEST thing that ever happened with law enforcement. Police officers should be respected when they are trying to do their job not bullied by politicians who try to use their entitlement to get out of trouble.

If people re-elect these corrupt clowns, it's their own damn fault!

Man I feel bad for the four officers in the first case. They're just doing their job, arresting someone on suspension of drunk driving which is a very serious thing.

If i were a cop i would have a field day explaining to these "high and mighty" people how they are just a regular citizen, like any other, same laws, you are going to jail now buddy!! :D

In that last interaction with the neighborhood cleanup, why tf are there so many wheels and tires all over this neighborhood??

You know he is a sergeant because he uses the horns to point out 🤣

So basically, if you are the Mayor, you immediately outrank every police officer, what a lovely system we have built here. 😵‍💫
