Hi @OIGLABOPC,

From my understanding, it’s against LAPD policy to photograph a person in handcuffs. Can you ask the Lt why they’re breaking LAPD policy.

Also, let this serve as a formal complaint. Please send receipt.
Why does this LAPD Lt feel the need to mention the person was homeless?

We taxpayers cover $255,678 in pay and benefits for this cop. I’d rather that quarter million dollars go to housing people. This cop probably doesn’t even live in LA. Image
Ensley was attached to the command that handled the 2015 Special Olympics.

During that time, they LAPD *lost* three of the participants. How did mismanage the event that badly?

Total incompetence. ImageImageImage

Wilcox & Hollywood Blvd, Friday, 10:52 PM:

I was at the LAPD station documenting cops’ illegal tints when I heard this stop on radio. Got there are saw kids handcuffed.

Reason: TINTS.

How do we go from a minor infraction, to handcuffs? This does *not* happen if you’re White.
I begin interviewing the kids. They confirm they were stopped and immediately ordered-out and handcuffed over the *tints*.

But the front windows were rolled-down. How can you tell if the tints are illegal if the windows were down? On top of it, they were *legal* tints. 😒
Not the first time I’ve seen this LAPD cop handcuff someone over tints. One time he stopped Black kids walking, handcuffed and searched (mistakenly thought they were smoking weed) and released. Then same cops immediately pulled them over and handcuffed again (citing tints).

Hi Ladies,

If an LAPD cop pulls you over, orders you out of car, then back in car, and makes you drive to the other side of the neighborhood (to park in a hidden construction zone on a dark street) it is ….. totally allowed. 🥴

LAPD complaint dept admitted it on tape.
I taped a cop tell a woman she couldn’t drive because her license was suspended.

Then he gave her an *illegal order* by putting her back in operation of the vehicle and making her drive to the DARKEST STREET on the OTHER SIDE OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD.

The LAPD says this is fine:
This complaint supervisor said the cop had the *unlicensed* driver take the car to the other side of the neighborhood because they were blocking traffic.

But they weren’t. They were parked in the parking lane. See for yourself:

We all think the cops or their fanatical supporters were responsible.
My son was shot 17 times by three masked shooters. That’s an assassination.
The detectives are trash.

Other than a call asking if Moore could call me, I talked to the detective ONE fucking time (and that was when I WENT LOOKING FOR HER). During that convo she asked if I had my sons passwords. You waited a week?

These fuckers left casings at the scene.

Meet LAPD Frank Lopez (@frank_slo). This out-of-control cop is actually a supervisor of other cops.

Imagine that?

He gives us two directions to leave. We chose one. He then changes his mind. Then says “you have one minute to leave.” But he arrests after 4 seconds.🥴
In this video Lopez says she has *one minute* to leave. In this video he arrests her. But the video is *nine seconds* in total.

Lopez’s math is wrong.
The cop who picked up my phone hit record by accident. 😁

LOPEZ: Take it up with the judge.

Going to demand the City Attorney *not* drop this charge. I want to take it to trial. I want Lopez on the stand. I want to *personally* cross-examine him. Then place him on a Brady List.

Real talk: I’m *not* convinced the LAPD or their lovers had nothing to do with my son’s murder.

I lean that way more and more each day.
People around me wonder the same.

My family knows how I was constantly being followed by different cars — especially after filming shitty police stops.
I think the LAPD has no business investigating my son’s murder.

Someone else needs to step in.
