Upon my arrival on the scene, I observed a blue vehicle, NJ registration J97FXY stopped in the Court of Deptford 1 lot. I spoke with the stopping officer, P/O Bullock #5248 who advised me the reason for his stop. P/O Bullock also mentioned as he was speaking with the driver his hand movements were slow and he immediately overtaken from the odor of an alcoholic beverage emanating from the vehicle. After being briefed, I approached the driver now identified as Charles L. Walker 2nd. When I asked Charles if he had any drinks tonight, he slurred “No homie, I’m not drunk and what’s the reason you have me stopped.” During my further conversation with Charles, he started to become irate over he was “surrounded” by three white police officers. To help levitate the problem, I asked the other officers to take a step back so I could speak with Charles. I advised Charles that I was going to administer SFST’s and the first test was the HGN test.
HGN TEST:

After Charles advised me that he did not, I explained to him the instruction, to which he advised that he understood. I began the test and Charles moved his head as I moved the stimulus. I stopped the test and explained to him to follow my stimulus with his eyes only. I began again and Charles moved his eyes the opposite direction of pen as if he was attempting to deceive the test. I stopped once again and advised him to “move his eyes in the same direction as my pen and keep following it until I tell you to stop.” I started the test again and observed a lack of smooth pursuit in both eyes. There was a distinct and sustained nystagmus in both eyes also. I also observed nystagmus prior to forty-five (45) degrees in both eyes with no
The police responded to a tip that a home was being used to sell drugs. When they arrived at the home, Gant answered the door and stated that he expected the owner to return home later. The officers left and did a record check of Gant and found that his driver’s license had been suspended and there was a warrant for his arrest. The officers returned to the house later that evening and Gant wasn’t there. Gant returned shortly and was recognized by officers. He parked at the end of the driveway and exited his vehicle and was placed under arrest 10 feet from his car and was placed in the back of the squad car immediately. After Gant was secured, two officers searched his car and found a gun and a bag of cocaine.
On June 26, 2006, a Sheriff Officer of the State of Florida, William Wheetley and his drug detection dog, Aldo, were on patrol. Furthermore, Officer Wheetley conducted a traffic stop of the defendant Clayton Harris for expired tags on his truck. As Officer Wheetley approached the truck, he noticed that Harris was acting nervous/anxious, more than he should have, and he also noticed an open can of beer in the cup holder next to him. At that moment, Officer Wheetley knew that he was hiding something, he requested to search
The symptoms of a right-hemisphere stroke are very much similar like the symptoms Mr. Fix-it is experiencing. For example, both suggest that functions on the left side of the body are completely neglected; therefore, the left visual section of the body does not respond effectively to stimuli due to the neglect. Damage to the right occipital lobe is very likely. The patient may have experienced some damage to areas 18 and 19 of the occipital lobe. “Damage to these association areas resulted in the patient’s failure to recognize items even when they have been seen before”, such as Mr. Fix-it’s deficiency to recognize geometric shapes (Carlson, 2010). Moreover, the patient could have also experience damage in the frontal lobe, specifically on area 8, in which it could have r...
On 01-01-17 at 0023 hours I was monitoring the radio and heard that Officer Harrell #3441 and Officer Thebeau #8402 were involved in a vehicle pursuit in the area of Fair Oaks Avenue and Corson Street. I responded to the above location to assist. They advised responding units that the suspect was involved in a traffic collision on the eastbound 210 Freeway Fair Oaks Avenue off-ramp.
Then, when she was finished reading, she stopped at a particular line and I wrote down her results. I also tested her other eye, which is her right eye, which had different results. After, she finished and I wrote her results down, I tested her vision field by sitting in front of her and placing my finger near her ear and she then told me when she saw my finger first. Next, I tested Jazmine Cooley’s oculomotor, trochlear, and abducens nerves by looking at the pupil of her eye and briefly shining a flashlight into her eyes asking her to look up, down, left, right, and side to side. Then, I repeated the same test, however, I did not use a flashlight this time, but I had her follow along to my clenched fist with my thumb held up.
may also be affected in deleterious ways. They can have blurred vision, decreased sensation of limbs, unable to locate them without looking, decreased sense of taste, ringing of the ears etc. 2. What is the difference between a '' and a ''? Two ideas about the nervous system that can be better understood from these observations are the concepts of having and locating the I-function. It seems that the I-function here is very often affected in terms of voluntary movement.
Officer Ryan’s perception of the situation at hand was one that led to an escalation. He pulled over Mr. and Mrs. Thayer though his partner warned him they did nothing wrong. His response was simply, “they were doing something.” Officer Ryan’s initial perception of Mrs. Thayer was incorrect, as he perceived her to be a white woman that was engaging in fellatio with a black man. Once Officer Ryan engaged in a conversation with Mr. Thayer and noticed how lightly he and his wife were taking the current situation, he became aggravated and asked Mr. Thayer to step out of the vehicle to perform a sobriety test.
Many State Troopers were being investigated for a variety of discriminatory stops. An attorney, William Merton, has been a part of the investigation of the troopers and found some very interesting information. A man named John Mean was pulled over by the troopers, where he was driving the same speed as the cars around him and he was pulled over. He then was threatened, with the probability of a search warrant, to give up his privacy rights and be searched. His car was then searched and he was release with a warning, twenty-five minutes later. This incident, like many others, was not reported, which shows a suspicion in the data collected from the department (Bouie 2014).
At that call the one officer spoke in Spanish to the people in question so I did not understand a thing that was said. We did pull over a vehicle that was swerving. Officer Todd was nice enough to let me go up to the vehicle with him because of my background of being an officer many moons ago and knowing about officer safety. There were to subjects in the car, a female driving and a male passenger. He asked for driver’s license and registration we took that back to the vehicle and the female was driving on expired driver’s license. Officer Todd also could smell the odor of alcohol in the vehicle. At this time a fellow officer Banks came over to myside and opened the car door and talked with the male passenger. He found open containers of beer and made the male pour everything out. Also Officer Todd asked the female how much she had been drinking and she stated “Two Beers” (the standard answer) we left the suspects in the vehicle and walked back to our

Mental retardation or suspects with low intelligence quotients (IQ) are easily manipulated by police comments and interrogation tactics. Those suspects usually do not understand the law or the consequences of a confession. They may want to please the police officer by being accommodating or agreeable. They may just wa...
I observed the officer claim that when he questions the defendant, he felt as if he was off. The victim gives a full detail report to the officer, describing what the person looked like and everything. One of the officers had taken his picture, and sent one to the transit police, to see if it was the same person they were looking for. In the meantime, the woman officer was interrogating him about where he has been and of prescription medication that was discovered in his bag. However, the defendant lied about why his taking the medicine. I observed that the police mentioned the defendant was very yielding and being extremely corporative. The officer mentioned that he took him to the hospital for psych assessment being that he was acting odd, so they kept him because of strange behavior. I observed the officer mention that from there, they got a report that the defendant was the same person they were looking at in the pictures. It was at the hospital that they arrested the defendant.
As we cruised around the community, he pointed out countless minor traffic violations, both moving and non-moving, but opted not to make any stops. At this point he stated his main concern was to spot any impaired drivers and get them off the road. Eventually, as we came up behind an older civic (the Civic had a broken brake light) on Centreville Road, the officer stated that he detected the scent of marijuana coming from the Civic. The driver of the Civic noticed Crutchman’s police cruiser behind him and dropped his speed to 5 mph under the posted limit. Officer Crutchman began tailing the vehicle which immediately turned off on the next available road. We proceeded to follow the Civic for a couple of miles. I could tell that Officer Crutchman wanted to make the stop, and I inquired why he hadn’t done so already on account of the Civic’s faulty brake light. He responded that he is cautious about making such stops because he does not want a “new law named after him” on account of the controversy surrounding pretextual stops. It is possible that this careful attitude has developed as a result of the rising public outcry against police and
The machine, “designed with the purpose of impinging upon a moving luminous goal,” tracks the proverbial goal by tracing its direction and noting the brightness of the light, an indication of its proximity. Should the machine make even one miscalculation in regulating its following of the light, that error would result in a series of subsequent misjudgments and, ultimately, the machine’s inability to reach its goal. The patient with cerebellar disease experiences this disconnect in attempting motor activity, particularly in Wiener’s example of carrying a glass of water from table to mouth. He writes that “the hand carrying the glass will execute a series of oscillatory motions of increasing
