Corrupt Cop Gets CAUGHT Lying on His Own Bodycam

Added: 2026-05-07

[00:00:05]There is nothing quite like watching an officer who thinks they're above the law get a serious reality check. And we've got a significant one here for you today. Before we get into the video, I would love to give a special shout out to Marcus Goodner from Dallas, Texas, Alberto Quinka from Argentina, Jeff from Indianapolis, Kevin from Illinois, and Ivet from Orlando, Florida. It is people like you who make what we do here possible. Now, let me tell you why this case matters. We're about to examine an encounter between officer Kaiser Urana and a local activist named Alberto Kones. And I should note upfront, I'm not a practicing attorney, but I have spent years studying constitutional law and police procedure. What I offer is informed legal analysis grounded in actual case law. The central legal question we're going to explore here involves the Fourth Amendment and its protections against unreasonable searches and seizures. Under Delaware versus Prrowse from 1979, the Supreme Court established clear boundaries for when officers can initiate traffic stops. That framework is going to be essential to understanding what we're about to see. What makes this case particularly instructive is the presence of body cam footage. That footage becomes our primary evidence in evaluating whether constitutional standards were met or violated. The camera doesn't lie, even when narratives get complicated. This isn't just about one officer or one civilian. This is about the legal principles that govern every single police encounter in America.

[00:05:35]>> Let me get your ID.

[00:05:36]>> I'm not going to show you. Hold on. Let me see. Let me see. Is there a reason WHY YOU DON'T WANT TO SHOW ME YOUR ID?

[00:05:40]>> And I'm going to because I don't have to.

[00:05:42]>> OF COURSE YOU DO.

[00:05:43]>> NO.

[00:05:43]>> YOU'RE YOU'RE A TRAFFIC STOP.

[00:05:45]>> THIS IS NOT a traffic stop.

[00:05:46]>> IT IS A TRAFFIC STOP.

[00:05:47]>> TRY ME, BRO. Try me.

[00:05:48]>> Okay. So, right off the bat, I need to address what we just witnessed because this is textbook. The officer is demanding identification and making threats about pulling Mr. K out of the vehicle. But here's what he's missing.

[00:06:00]Under the Fourth Amendment, as interpreted through decades of case law, an officer needs reasonable, articulable suspicion of criminal activity to justify a traffic stop in the first place. Now, Officer Urana claims there was a red light violation. Mr. Cone says the light was yellow and he made a legal U-turn. That factual dispute matters enormously because if there was no actual traffic violation, then this entire encounter lacks constitutional foundation. And here's what the footage doesn't tell you. Alberto Cone is a known police accountability activist in this area. He has been involved in multiple cases highlighting alleged misconduct, which makes the officer's aggressive approach here particularly interesting. Was this random enforcement or was there something more going on?

[00:06:45]Let me be clear about the ID demand because this is where so many people get confused. In most states, you are not required to produce identification simply because an officer asks for it.

[00:06:56]There must be reasonable suspicion that you have committed or are about to commit a crime. The Supreme Court established this in Hibel v6 judicial district court back in 2004. The officer repeatedly demanding ID without first establishing lawful grounds for the stop is putting the cart before the horse.

[00:07:14]What troubles me most is the escalation.

[00:07:16]Listen to the tone. The threats about dragging him from the vehicle. Under Graham v. Connor from 1989. We evaluate officer conduct based on what a reasonable officer would do given the totality of circumstances. Threatening force over an ID dispute during a questionable stop. That's a problem.

[00:07:35]>> This not stop.

[00:07:39]>> What are we?

[00:07:41]So you want his ID. He's refusing to give you this stop, man. You are you a rookie? Are you a rookie?

[00:07:47]>> Why did you stop him? He stopped.

[00:07:48]>> No, he stopped me. I want to talk to him. Are you a supervisor? Why don't you come and talk to me? Why don't you come talk to me?

[00:07:55]>> Why don't you talk to me? Come, come. I want to talk to you.

[00:07:58]>> I'm not a supervisor.

[00:07:59]>> BUT I WANT TO TALK TO YOU. You asking question to this guy. He doesn't follow traffic rules.

[00:08:05]>> Listen.

[00:08:06]>> Listen. He's asking for your ID. You got to give him your ID.

[00:08:09]>> I have to. If he don't, what happened?

[00:08:11]>> Oh, you're trying to record. Okay.

[00:08:13]>> No, I'm not trying.

[00:08:14]>> He's recording. He's recording.

[00:08:15]>> What happened is I don't show your ID.

[00:08:18]So, you're a police agitator, right?

[00:08:20]>> Oh, is this is that right?

[00:08:21]>> Is that where you are?

[00:08:22]>> Is that right?

[00:08:28]>> Oh. Um, >> is he requesting one?

[00:08:34]>> So, >> yeah.

[00:08:45]>> Okay. The supervisor.

[00:08:48]Okay. What happened is there was a green light to me the arrow. He told me I saw him going through a red light. This guy right here.

[00:08:58]>> Okay.

[00:08:58]>> All you have to say, I'm sorry. I won't do that again. It's over. Now you want to escalate. Pull me over.

[00:09:04]>> Albert. Albert. Just Just talk to me.

[00:09:06]I'm sorry. Okay. This guy went to >> Okay.

[00:09:10]>> It's not right. You should be a role model. It should be an honor for you to wear this uniform. You should be proud.

[00:09:15]>> I agree.

[00:09:15]>> Okay.

[00:09:16]>> I agree. Okay. So, this guy don't know the traffic rule. If you don't see for this officer, you might be a rocket. I don't know. But you need to follow the rules. That's all I want. And look, one more thing I want to tell you guys.

[00:09:28]Anybody who want to approach a police officer and want to disagree, want to disagree.

[00:09:35]>> What did he say?

[00:09:36]>> Whoever want to disagree with you, anybody who should be able to approach you and disagree with the things you're doing without risking arrest. that the difference between a police state and a free country. Okay? So you you keep that in your mind.

[00:09:49]>> Okay. That's it.

[00:09:52]>> If you're kidding for me over here on my ID, but you kidding me?

[00:09:55]>> If you're in a traffic stop, >> you are not This is not a traffic stop.

[00:09:58]>> It is.

[00:09:59]>> It's not. What are you going to do?

[00:10:00]>> You're in a traffic.

[00:10:01]>> What are you going to do? Tell me.

[00:10:03]>> I need to get your ID.

[00:10:04]>> You're not going to see my ID.

[00:10:05]>> Albert.

[00:10:06]>> Yeah.

[00:10:06]>> Listen. Talk.

[00:10:09]>> We'll just talk. Okay.

[00:10:10]>> What the reason? I honestly have no idea.

[00:10:12]>> Not stop.

[00:10:13]I'm heading southbound on on Fed. The light turns yellow. There's no more cars. So, I do a U-turn to get back here cuz I see that the units are over here.

[00:10:22]>> And I don't know where the heck he came from that he started like >> going towards my car. So, I'm like, what the heck is going on with this guy?

[00:10:31]>> Okay.

[00:10:31]>> And then, you know, now R's going on, right?

[00:10:33]>> What's going on? I have no idea what's going on.

[00:10:35]>> So, I saw you going through a red light.

[00:10:38]>> Did he commit traffic?

[00:10:40]If anything, he was driving erratic >> recklessly. Was he signal? Were you signaling when he was going in between lanes, getting closer?

[00:10:48]>> No, it it was right here. It was on >> Johnson. I'll make him I'll make him left to come here. I got a red a green light. Go. And then this guy just making a U-turn right there.

[00:10:56]>> Okay.

[00:10:57]>> Just in front of me.

[00:10:58]>> You people. You see people don't care about that.

[00:11:01]>> Where where you coming from?

[00:11:02]>> Why don't you be a good police officer?

[00:11:04]That's all I want. Be a good cop. So then >> I want to like you. I want to like you.

[00:11:08]A good police officer is going to ask you for your ID and you as a citizen, an obeying citizen are going to be like, "Here you go, sir.

[00:11:15]>> This is not a police state. I don't have to obey."

[00:11:18]>> It's not a police state.

[00:11:20]>> What are you talking about? Just one second.

[00:11:21]>> Okay.

[00:11:22]>> How is this not a police state?

[00:11:24]>> I don't understand.

[00:11:24]>> Police state mean dictatorship.

[00:11:32]>> Roger, you're drunk. Nothing's wrong with you, man. Something's wrong with you because you went through you just you just make a U-turn with the red light and people were coming too and I'm not going to I'm not going to say >> you were the only car then.

[00:11:44]>> There was two cars.

[00:11:45]>> You were the only car then. Huh?

[00:11:46]>> Okay. We'll see.

[00:11:49]>> Okay.

[00:11:51]>> Now, watch what happens when the supervisor arrives because this is where the legal picture gets even murkier. The supervisor tells Mr. Kona essentially, just apologize and show your ID and this will all go away. But that framing fundamentally misunderstands what's at stake here. Florida is what we call a stop and identify state. But, and this is critical, that obligation only kicks in during a lawful detention. Florida statute 911.151 requires you to identify yourself to law enforcement, but only when an officer has lawfully detained you based on reasonable suspicion. The supervisor is treating compliance as a civic courtesy when it's actually a constitutional question. And I want you to notice something in Officer Urana's own explanation to his supervisor. He says he made a U-turn and then Mr. Cone started driving toward him. He describes the driving as erratic. But wait, first it was a red light violation. Now it's erratic driving. The story is shifting in real time. And that's exactly why body camera footage matters so much.

[00:12:47]Here's context. The footage doesn't give you Officer Urana has faced prior complaints regarding his conduct during traffic stops. Internal investigations resulted in retraining sessions, but no formal discipline. That pattern matters because it speaks to whether this encounter is an isolated incident or part of something larger. The supervisor's approach here troubles me from a training perspective. Instead of asking his officer to articulate the specific legal basis for the stop, he immediately pressures the civilian to comply. That's backwards. Good supervision means ensuring your officers are operating within constitutional bounds before demanding civilian cooperation. This is exactly the kind of encounter that erodess public trust.

[00:13:23]When citizens see officers unable to clearly articulate why a stop occurred and supervisors who prioritize compliance over lawfulness, it sends a message about departmental priorities.

[00:13:32]And in an era where body cameras are supposed to ensure accountability, that message carries weight.

[00:13:38]>> This is the thing.

[00:13:39]>> Yeah.

[00:13:40]>> I need your license.

[00:13:41]>> Okay.

[00:13:42]>> All righty.

[00:13:43]>> Okay.

[00:13:43]>> You were swerving into my lane. All right. So, do you have ID with you?

[00:13:48]>> I'm not going to show you anything, sir, because you didn't pull me over. I don't want to talk to you. You >> I pulled you over. I pulled you over.

[00:13:53]>> You want You want I'm not going to receive a resist arrest or anything. I'm going to call somebody to come and pick up my car. Is that okay?

[00:13:59]>> Okay, Albert.

[00:14:00]>> What?

[00:14:00]>> Yes. You're not taking me to jail or something.

[00:14:03]>> You have ID?

[00:14:05]>> You have ID?

[00:14:05]>> I don't answer questions.

[00:14:08]>> Hey, don't don't do that, man. It's in my face. Please.

[00:14:11]>> I'm I'm just trying to shine the light.

[00:14:12]>> If you do that on my face, I'm going to do it to you, too. Okay. I got this powerful. This is very powerful.

[00:14:16]>> Albert, >> yeah.

[00:14:17]>> I'm going to explain something to you right now just to make it very clear to everything. So that way there's not any confusion on either side. Is that okay with you?

[00:14:24]>> Yeah. Let's see. Let's see if you know anything.

[00:14:28]>> Tell me >> the reason why the stop this stop has occurred is because you are failing to keep in your proper lane.

[00:14:32]>> Okay. No, no, no. I don't ask a question. I don't I don't ask a question. Have a good day.

[00:14:36]>> Hold on. Did you catch that? The footage description tells us something the audio doesn't. This dialogue resumes after the officer muted his body cam for several minutes. Several minutes. Let that sink in. Under established department policies across Florida and frankly nationwide, body cameras exist precisely to create an unbroken record of police civilian encounters. When an officer mutes or deactivates that camera during an active detention, they are eliminating the very accountability mechanism taxpayers funded to protect both parties. And here's what I know from studying these cases extensively.

[00:15:11]The moments officers choose to mute their cameras are rarely random. In pattern or practice investigations conducted by the Department of Justice, they have repeatedly identified selective recording as a red flag for misconduct. The 2017 Chicago consent decree specifically addressed this issue, requiring officers to record entire encounters without interruption.

[00:15:32]Now, when the audio returns, what do we hear? Officer Urina is once again demanding identification. He's explaining that Mr. KZ was failing to keep in his proper lane. But wait, first it was a red light, then it was erratic driving, now it's a lane violation. This is the third different justification we've heard. And each one emerged after the previous explanation faced scrutiny.

[00:15:55]The muted segment is where questions multiply. What happened during those missing minutes? What was said? What wasn't recorded? In any legal proceeding, those gaps become devastating for the prosecution because they create reasonable doubt about the completeness of the record. I should be clear. I'm not a practicing attorney and this isn't legal advice. But from a transparency standpoint, this footage fails the basic test of accountability.

[00:16:20]An unbroken record protects officers from false accusations just as much as it protects civilians from misconduct.

[00:16:26]When that record has gaps, everyone loses except whoever had something to hide. Man, >> you're not going to roll the window up on >> Oh, right. Close my door. Close my door.

[00:16:37]Uh 203 call my lawyer man.

[00:16:43]>> We're going to take him in.

[00:16:44]>> No.

[00:16:45]>> Let's do it. Let's go. Let's go. You want to take it to >> Are you kidding? Do you Are you like under medication?

[00:16:49]>> I think you are drunk, man. Because Hey, man. Please don't do that, man. Don't do it in my eyes.

[00:16:53]>> Anything?

[00:16:54]>> Don't do that in my eyes.

[00:16:54]>> I'm flashing the light.

[00:16:55]>> Well, don't do that to me.

[00:16:57]>> I won't do it. I won't. No. You're going to escalate this.

[00:16:59]>> He's pointing it down.

[00:17:00]>> You're going to escalate. You're going to escalate.

[00:17:02]>> Okay. I'm not doing anything.

[00:17:04]>> All right. You have on you. Are we? Are you going to take me? Are you going to take me?

[00:17:08]>> You have your ID.

[00:17:09]>> I'm not going to show you.

[00:17:10]>> If you don't give me your ID, you're going to guess you're going to get tickets.

[00:17:13]>> Okay.

[00:17:13]>> Okay. Let's do it. Bro, >> can we just take them out?

[00:17:15]>> Do it. All right. Get out the car.

[00:17:17]>> Jesus.

[00:17:22]>> Let me close my door, man.

[00:17:24]>> Turn.

[00:17:25]>> You cannot.

[00:17:29]>> You have any weapons on you?

[00:17:30]>> N me.

[00:17:33]>> Back here.

[00:17:34]>> Another city, man. I know. That's why you're standing right here.

[00:17:39]>> I got >> And this is where we need to talk about Graham v. Connor because what just unfolded on screen is precisely the kind of encounter that framework was designed to evaluate. In 1989, the Supreme Court established that all claims of excessive force during an arrest or investigatory stop must be analyzed under the Fourth Amendment's objective reasonleness standard. The question isn't whether the officer felt threatened. The question is whether a reasonable officer on the scene facing the same circumstances would have acted the same way. So let's apply that framework to what we just witnessed. Mr. Koness is sitting in his vehicle. He's not fleeing. He's not reaching for anything. He's verbally resistant, yes, but he's physically stationary. And yet, we hear officers discussing taking him out of the car. We hear accusations that he's drunk or on medication with zero evidentiary basis.

[00:18:29]We see a flashlight being used in a manner Mr. Kones perceives as aggressive. Here's what the Graham factors require us to consider. The severity of the crime at issue, the immediacy of any threat, whether the suspect is actively resisting or attempting to evade arrest. A traffic violation, if one even occurred, does not constitute a severe crime. Mr. Koness posed no physical threat while seated in his vehicle. His verbal non-compliance does not legally justify physical escalation. What troubles me most is the complete absence of deescalation. Modern police training emphasizes that officers have a duty to slow down situations when safely possible. Instead, every exchange here accelerates the tension. The accusations of intoxication without testing. The repeated commands overlapping each other. The decision to extract him physically when he committed no violent act. This is what I mean when I say proportionality matters. The response must match the resistance. Verbal defiance during a disputed traffic stop does not warrant the same response as physical aggression.

[00:19:38]>> It's too tight, man. Don't do it too tight. Please >> I'm not going to sit there and I dog. I can stand here. You don't have to stay lock down.

[00:19:50]>> I'm not going to not going to do that, man. Sit down. Why would I do that?

[00:19:53]>> Listen. Okay. Let's talk like regular human beings. Okay. Yeah, >> we're going to talk like regular human beings.

[00:19:58]>> We're in control now.

[00:19:59]>> You are You are not in control.

[00:20:01]>> We're 100% gangsters.

[00:20:03]>> Perfect. That's your opinion. That's your opinion, not mine.

[00:20:06]>> You're trying to intimidate me.

[00:20:07]>> I'm not trying to intimidate.

[00:20:08]>> Okay. What is it? What is it?

[00:20:09]>> Can you Can you listen or not? Or you talk over >> I don't have to listen to you.

[00:20:12]>> Okay, that's fine. Then we're going to do what we have to do. Understand?

[00:20:15]>> Let's do it.

[00:20:16]>> Okay, perfect.

[00:20:16]>> Okay.

[00:20:17]>> Okay. We're going to sit you down.

[00:20:19]>> Really?

[00:20:20]>> Yep. You're going to sit down.

[00:20:21]>> Why don't you do that, man?

[00:20:22]>> Because I told you.

[00:20:22]>> I GOT BACK PROBLEMS. I GOT BAD PROBLEMS.

[00:20:24]PERFECT. Then we'll take care of that later. But I told you to sit down, right? I told you that. Right.

[00:20:29]>> We're trying to be cool with you, man.

[00:20:30]>> Officer Perez, back 3604.

[00:20:34]You got that?

[00:20:35]>> I got it.

[00:20:35]>> Perfect.

[00:20:38]>> Give you his ID.

[00:20:39]>> I won't give you my ID.

[00:20:40]>> Listen to the language being used here.

[00:20:42]We're in control. You are not in control. That phrase right there tells you everything about the mindset operating in this encounter. What we just witnessed isn't policing. It's domination. And there's a fundamental ethical distinction the courts have recognized between lawful authority and raw power assertion. In Tennessee v.

[00:20:59]Garner, the Supreme Court made clear that constitutional policing requires more than legal permission to act. It requires that officers exercise their authority within ethical boundaries that respect human dignity. Mr. Con says he has back problems. He's asking not to be forced down onto the ground. And the response, I'll take care of that later.

[00:21:18]That dismissal of a stated medical concern during custody is precisely what the ETH amendment's prohibition on cruel and unusual punishment was designed to address. Now, I know the ETH amendment technically applies postconviction, but courts have increasingly applied similar deliberate indifferent standards to pre-trial detainees under the 14th amendment. Kingsley v. Hendrickson in 2015 reinforced that even before conviction, individuals retain constitutional protection against objectively unreasonable treatment.

[00:21:44]Here's what strikes me about officer Urina specifically. The research shows he's faced prior complaints regarding his conduct during traffic stops. Those complaints resulted in retraining sessions, but no formal discipline. And yet, here we are watching the exact same pattern. Escalation over compliance, control over communication. Sit down.

[00:22:04]We're taking you down. These aren't the words of an officer attempting to resolve a situation. These are ultimatums. The ethical duty of a peace officer includes proportionate response and respect for bodily autonomy when no threat exists. Mr. Cones wasn't swinging. He wasn't fleeing. He was talking. And for that, he's being taken to the ground despite voicing a medical concern. This is where public trust fractures.

[00:22:28]>> Perfect. That he's going to get arrested.

[00:22:30]>> Okay, let's go.

[00:22:31]>> Let's go while we got him on.

[00:22:33]>> Yeah, >> let's go. This is me right here already.

[00:22:36]One, two.

[00:22:37]>> All right. I'm not that heavy.

[00:22:38]>> Detain for now.

[00:22:40]No, no. You're taking me to jail. You're arresting me. I want that case now and everything. So, hey, my phone is on my truck. Please, can you don't lose my phone, please? Can you can you bring my phone on, please?

[00:22:50]>> Car's getting towed. Your phone is going to be there.

[00:22:53]>> What?

[00:22:53]>> Your car is getting to >> My phone is on there.

[00:22:56]>> Okay.

[00:22:56]>> Oh my Oh, you put in there.

[00:22:58]>> That's fine.

[00:22:58]>> Yeah.

[00:23:05]>> Huh?

[00:23:08]>> Oh, no. Okay. Okay. Yeah. Sure.

[00:23:10]>> Excuse me. You don't tell us.

[00:23:18]Yeah. Yeah.

[00:23:22]>> Stop resisting.

[00:23:24]>> So, after watching this entire encounter unfold, I need to step back and address what we've actually witnessed here because the legal implications extend far beyond this single traffic stop.

[00:23:34]What you just saw was the culmination of every procedural failure we identified throughout this video. Mr. Koness is now being arrested. His vehicle is being towed. His phone potentially left behind. And for what exactly? A disputed traffic violation that the officer couldn't consistently articulate from the beginning of this encounter. I want to be absolutely clear about something.

[00:23:54]I'm not a practicing attorney and nothing I've said constitutes legal advice. But what I can tell you based on decades of studying constitutional law and police procedure is that this case study represents a fundamental breakdown in what the fourth amendment was designed to protect. The founders who drafted our constitution understood something profound about state power.

[00:24:13]They understood that authority unchecked becomes authority abused. That's why the fourth amendment doesn't just protect us from unreasonable searches. It protects the very concept of a free citizenry that cannot be detained arbitrarily by government agents. What makes this case particularly instructive is how it reveals the gap between policy and practice. Officer Urana has received prior retraining for similar conduct during traffic stops. The department knew there was a pattern and yet here we are watching history repeat itself because retraining without accountability is just performance. The muted body cam footage we discussed earlier takes on new significance. Now, when an officer knows they can selectively record and face no consequences, the entire accountability framework collapses. The DOJ's findings in cities like Chicago and Ferguson demonstrate that these aren't isolated incidents. They're symptoms of systemic failures in supervision and discipline.

[00:25:08]Now, I should note that officer Urana remains an active member of the force as of my most recent research. No public disciplinary actions have been reported following this incident. The legal proceedings have concluded with no further appeals. And that reality should give every viewer pause. Because here's the broader lesson this encounter teaches us. Constitutional rights exist on paper, but they live or die based on enforcement. Every citizen who watches body camera footage like this becomes a participant in the accountability process that formal institutions sometimes fail to provide. The intersection of Mr. KZ's activism and this particular encounter raises questions I cannot definitively answer.

[00:25:48]Was this random enforcement or something more targeted? The evidence doesn't let me make that determination with certainty. But the pattern of escalation, regardless of the answer, violated established legal standards we've discussed throughout this video.

[00:26:02]What I hope you take away from this analysis is not cynicism, but clarity.

[00:26:06]Clarity about what the law actually requires. clarity about how to evaluate police conduct against established constitutional standards and clarity about why transparency mechanisms like body cameras only work when they're used consistently and honestly. The conversation happening nationally right now about police accountability isn't abstract. It's playing out in encounters exactly like this one. Just recently, we've seen the release of body camera footage from Chicago showing concerning conduct between officers. The Aurora Police Department faces scrutiny over use of force protocols. These stories connect because they reflect the same underlying tensions between authority and accountability. So where do we go from here? I believe informed citizens make better advocates. Understanding Terry v. Ohio and Graham v. Connor and Kingsley v. Hendrickson isn't just academic exercise. It's civic preparation. When you know the legal standards, you can recognize when they're being violated. And that recognition is the first step toward demanding better.
