A recently released police dash camera video reveals the truth about an “altercation” between Oklahoma Highway Patrolman Daniel Martin and EMT worker Maurice White on May 24.
Released dash cam video
The video, released by the Oklahoma Department of Public Safety, clearly shows Martin assaulting White on the side of the road in Okfuskee County, Oklahoma. A cell phone video of the assault posted on YouTube received well over a million views and was the second most-watched video on May 30.
Cell phone video of the incident
Fox 23 in Tulsa filed a Freedom of Information request for the dash cam but the OHP stonewalled the request. Late on June 12, the department finally released the video. It was posted on YouTube on June 13. Earlier reports in the media claimed police had turned off the dash cam before Martin assaulted the EMT worker.
“We’ve been well aware of the fact that this incident has drawn enormous attention, but made the decision to protect the integrity of the investigation, any and all relevant evidence, as well as the rights of the department employees,” Oklahoma Highway Patrol spokesman Capt. Chris West told Fox.
In fact, police did not release the video because it shows Martin assaulting White without provocation. After threatening White and putting him in a chokehold, Martin called for backup. He repeatedly threatened the EMT operators, unleashed obscenities, and pinned White against the EMT vehicle.
The police video confirms what witnesses on the scene reported — Martin was out of control and assaulted the EMT worker.
Police initially said the EMT vehicle failed to yield and this was the reason Martin confronted White, assaulted him and threatened to arrest him. But the police video reveals that the EMT was unable to immediately yield due to a car pulling over in the breakdown lane on the side of the road.
“He slowed down, and as the car was getting over, that’s when he passed us,” Kenyada Davis told News 9 in Oklahoma City. The EMT was transporting Davis’ elderly mother to the hospital when the incident occurred.Martin claims the paramedics not only failed to yield but they also flipped him off. White and EMT driver Paul Franks said it was a gesture of surprise and Martin misunderstood.
Martin claimed he was responding to a stolen car report. It was later revealed his wife was in the police car. After the cell phone video appeared on YouTube and the OHP came under withering criticism, Martin was put on paid leave.
The Okfuskee County District Attorney’s Office initially said it would charge White with obstructing a police officer. On June 5, however, Okfuskee County decided not to charge the EMT or the trooper and announced the case would be dropped. The dash cam video clearly shows White did not obstruct Martin and the cop assaulted the EMT worker.
“After careful consideration off all fact and circumstance, it does not appear it would be appropriate to file charges against (Maurice) White or any other person involved. Although, I do not condone their actions, I do not believe that filing charges at this time would serve the best interests of the public or interests of justice. It has been my experience that emergency service providers generally work well together, and it was disappointing to see a situation where that clearly did not happen,” district attorney Max Cook told KTUL 8.
The OHP attempt to stonewall requests for the police video demonstrate the lengths the state will go to cover up the violent behavior of police officers who are nothing more than jackbooted thugs ruthlessly preying on not only emergency workers but the public at large. Increasingly, police departments around the country are hiring thugs – many veterans of the war in Iraq – who are expected to act like brownshirted gangsters and react violently when citizens question or resist their criminal behavior.
Trooper Daniel Martin needs to be fired and a message sent that this sort of behavior will not be tolerated. If you believe Martin should be fired, sign the “Fire Oklahoma Highway Patrolman Daniel Martin” petition and send the OHP and police around the country a strong message.

Heres yet another look from way outside the box, because people seldom see the situation theyre in for what it is. The big picture so to speak.
Lets say that the evil agenda that faces us succeeds, and at some point all of the free thinkers, freedom fighters, and freedom lovers are dead or re-educated, and the sheeple are all being good and obedient slaves I mean proles. The need for all but a small force of “thought police” will cease. Where will that leave you? Im talking to the police, military and para-military who willfully use excessive force on and go along with what you know is training towards illegal acts on your own countrymen. Do you really think that in the possible future world of totalitarianism and its docile slaves that is covertly being thrust upon us there will be room for trained killers? People who were probably promised and assurred rewards and a safe prosperous lifetime if you just helped in their conquest over your brothers and sisters. Why would they keep promises to betrayers like that? Violent aggressive reactionary hotheads trained to use force and kill, will not have a place in their new society, and they wont even ask you to drink the kool-aid. Think about it…

yeah, i just signed the petition and said essentially the same thing. ultimately the only answer -for all of us- is people power. consider that -as the unable ones (psychologically) die – the percentage of those who know goes up. at some point we will have a core majority. it’s attrition.
as far as the police go, yeah i said “what kind of world do you want your children to live in.”
that’s the big picture. NWO is going forward. they are not going to stop.
if they are the future, we know we aren’t going to take it. so, this scenario must play itself out.
we will not be in the NWO future. even if they offered me -and i came from a wealthy family- i would not do it. material things are neccesary, but not at the expense of humanity.

the mayans recently opened up their ceremonies to outsiders. they invited us. when the elders were asked what we should do they said ,”patience.”
patience means take action that is in balance with your life and be aware. it means change what you can change and prepare. the decisions you make naturally -knowing what we know- will be different than the decisions you would have made otherwise. just realizing something and being aware changes you and your decisions.
we do not want to get into the situation of running around “terrorizing” people. there is no solution except thru the mind. who controls your mind? other people have other minds.
be respectful and it is a mistake to believe you can change someone’s mind by arguing.
the right question at the right time -with respect for yourself and the other.
that is my way. i bashed about 911 for a long time in the states and i worked out my karma there. people -we- are dreamers. can’t beat the dream directly.

He has stepped outside the law on various occasions to insult, threaten, try to frame me for ridiculous crimes I did not commit, and to use this position to bully me in general. The whole situation has left a really bitter taste in my mouth concerning the attitudes of law enforcement officials.

Well as soon as you took on CITIZENSHIP and agreed to be SURETY then look out….you are GOVERNMENT PROPERTY and they didn’t force you to contract with them.
You all need to wake the hell up and start paying attention to all the ways you have contracted and entered into trusts with the ‘government’ and other organizations. You think you have a constitution? You have signed away all your rights and willingly placed yourself in the position of indentured servant.
Wake up people….these guys running the show are brilliant. You wonder why theres no justice as you see it ought to be? Thats because non of you have a bloody concept of what justice os or how law operates.
You people willingly signed under the dotted line or at least by silence agreed to their terms, agreed to be the surety for the national debt….now you BITCH and COMPLAIN about the contracts and the results of them that you signed without protest and without duress and without any conditions.
No wonder they want to exterminate you…you are being fraudulent in your contracts.

The idea that anyone can enter into a contract with a tyrannical government who forces you
into said contracts at the point of a gun is silly.
Contract law is clear that you cannot enter into a contract that is valid, if there is a threat of violence if you do not comply, and contract law is clear that you HAVE to recieve compensation for goods and services provided or the contract is not binding.
There is no place that the general citizenry can go to avoid the slave contracts of the government, since failure to sign birth certificates, marriage certificates, or any of the sneaky tools the government uses to usurp the constitution, and take human rights, and turn us into chattel for some government debt, will result in deportation and violence, in the case of no birth certificate, and no recognition of marriage rights and children’s rights, in the case of marriage contracts.
There is no compensation of any kind for the removal of our rights, and no benefit for being a government slave, so the law of contracts is being twisted and warped in the same way that extortion people feel justified in beating you up if you do not pay impossibly massive interest on mob loans.
The law may make sense to an inbred toady of the new world order, who accepts feudalism, slavery and forced labor, but contract law that allows tyranny is never justified.

I see this as more of the wrath of man , not serving the right doing of God. This officer is miffed because he thought this driver was deliberately not yielding , and then misconstrued , a hand gesture as the middle finger. Rather than evaluate this situation rationally he was feeding off 50% emotion and 50% insecurity. Had White reacted in the same way it’s likely someone would have been hurt. White showed cool and concern for his patient and was willing to go to jail so that the patient could receive the attention she needed. ( self sacrifice and love) This cop needs to not wear his emotion on his sleeve especially in his line of work, he’s supposed to be the level headed defuser of irrational behavior .

As a Citizen of the United States, or even as a citizen of the Corporation known as the United States, the tax code does not specify an individual deriving income from within the 50 States is required to pay a Federal Income Tax. If therefore the Federal Government attempts in any manner to force you to do so through their foreign entity known as the Internal revenue Service, they are in violation of both the Constitution and the Tax Code. That is self evident tyranny, all the more reason to “pack a gun”! The United States was seized by foreign enemies a long time ago, like it or not the fact remains that the Jesuits, other Vatican based entities, secret societies, and agents of the British Crown, as well as other enemies to the United States such as former Nazi’s, have all infiltrated and usurped the Republic. The first shots were fired decades and decades ago, the only question is when will the people hear them? Death to the New World Order.

That’s because they know they can get away with murder even when video proves beyond a doubt that they are guilty. The courts keep allowing the police to walk away from murders, assaults, rapes and many other crimes against the people without so much as an apology. They know they’ve been given a license to kill and they have no problem using it. The decent police officers that are left are probably going to wind up paying for the behavior of their evil counterparts. Fairly soon the people are going to reach the breaking point and it will be too late for them to repent.

the judge almost always sides with the police. the judge is SURROUNDED by police in the courtroom or LAW ENFORCEMENT personnel. any judge that steps out of line is ususally REMOVED from their position.
we had a trial in ithaca ny of friends who protested the invasion of iraq. the first trial was local and the judge was really helpful. they were not found guilty. i saw him for a brief second in the hall after the trial and i said “thank you.” we looked at each other briefly in silence, both of us knowing he was taking a chance for decency and facing whatever retribution would come.
after this the local da told the feds to prosecute and we went thru another trial in federal court.
the judge said, “you cannot mention the constitution in this court or you will be held in contempt.”
lots of other stuff. the jury convicted them. mind control my friends. mind control and secret socieities. and us. only the few may survive.

June 14th, 2009 at 12:25 pm
Another of the growing examples of the police will stick together at all costs, no matter WHAT the evidence shows. If it was clear to the public from the initial video that this cop went beyond the boundaries he is sworn to uphold- then it was very very clear to the OHP the same day from the dashcam video. The OHP and DA act like they are doing a favor to the EMT by not filing charges. Nothing could be further from the truth. They KNOW it would be a legal massacre of the OHP in the courts. I hope that the EMT decides to file against the “officer” and OHP for endangering the life of the person in their care as well as the atrocities commited against the EMT.
Now knowing that his wife was in the car, it would not be too far fetched to speculate that he was grandstanding for the benefit of his wife. Maybe she can now call him her “little” man.
Try visiting some cop forums and signing up as a ‘civilian’ where allowed at them and voice your opinion about the ‘few’ who give the ‘whole’ a bad name. You’ll quickly be banned no matter how well reasoned and polite your opinion is. It’s ’stick together at all costs’.
G’Day
Captain Trips Reply:
June 14th, 2009 at 1:37 pm
You’re 100% correct.
If they want to stick together then they will be punished together. I hope th EMT sues the OHP and the officer gets fired. The D.A. is just as much a criminal as the police are. They routinely cover up the crimes of police officers and go after innocent citizens by making up charges as they go along. It’s not about justice and it hasn’t been in a very long time. District attorneys only care about their careers and will often prosecute an innocent man in order to make a name for themselves. There is no lower form of human being than someone that holds a position of upholding justice, their duty being to find the truth, and instead of sincerely seeking the truth they bear false witness against the innocent for personal gratification.
One day they will all pay for their crimes.

there are a lot of people that should be fired. i am not joking here. of course i would fire the whole lot and permanently remove their ability to own a firearm in oklahoma. would that put things more right? yes. i am serious. this cop is not enuf given the current situation in the country.

You’re right, it goes much deeper than just the police. The whole justice system in this country has turned into a corrupt and evil den of vipers. The only thing I disagree with you on is removing the guys ability to defend himself and his family. The Constitution is very clear, no infringement.

Once again, the black man is in direct conflict with a law enforcement officer. And of course, because he’s a natural victim of color, it gives him the authority to disobey each and every command the officer gave him, causing a complete escalation of the situation, working it everyway he could, never shutting his big mouth. Steadly and completly disrespecting the law officer, just running that mouth. Acting like he’s a law enforcement officer himself, steadly refusing to just get back in the ambulance and keep his big god damn mouth shut. But no, its what we have come to expect and allow from big mouths like him, always ready to confront true authourity. like an emt is the same as a law officer.

@rogerdodger: Don’t be a cock. That cop had no justification for pulling them over in the first place and you know it. An emergency vehicle is precisely that. Incidentally, they did give the officer’s car plenty of room. You’re darn tootin’ the EMT disobeyed the officer. He had a life in his hands. He absolutely did the right thing. The cop was entirely out of line and should have escorted the ambulance to the hospital and taken up his complaint with the EMT AFTER the patient was secured and being looked after. Not one excuse in the world can be offered for the bad behavior of the officer involved. NOT ONE.

The right to pull him over was they were not running code. (Lights and Siren) If it was an emergency, they would run code. If they are not running code they have to follow all the rules of the road like everyone else. I have to agree that guy was a loud mounth and was trying to piss off the cop because he can get away with it. All of you have fallen for that bulls---. I hope that loud mouth spends some time cooling off in a cell. Again no ones life was in danger or they would run code. I would trust that jerk with my life.

Code, you are clueless. As a former 15-year LAFD Firefighter/Lead Paramedic as well as a Paramedic and EMT 1A instructor, I can tell you that the guys transporting the patient may have opted not to use the lights and sirends due to proximity to the hospital, lack of traffic, or because they didn’t want to further excite the patient, who I understand had chest pains. They could even just light up to get through intersections, then shut back down if they want to, if they feel it is in the best interest of their patient.
God forbid it’s YOUR mom in the back of the ambulance someday when the cops pull the same thing.

The sight of courage in the face of intimidation must frighten you fiercely.
You said The EMT was; “Acting like he’s a law enforcement officer himself, steadily (sp. corrected) refusing to just get back in the ambulance and keep his big god damn mouth shut.”
No, the EMT was acting like a public servant, too bad the trooper was not doing the same.

No one automatically deserves respect because they have a badge.
If a cop is out of line then you do NOT have to obey him. In fact, you and your other citizen friends can take the dirty piece of s--- cop to the ground, incapacitate him, and arrest him. If the piece of s--- pulls his gun then shoot the motherf---er to the ground and make sure he is f---ing dead, shot to kill always. I strongly recommend doing this when the situation calls for it. They are not above the law and they are not our Gods. When they violate your rights and freedom, then you have nothing to lose so don’t be a pussy waste of air and f---in go for it. Be a man.
Do not be afraid of these f---ing hot head cops. If they start assaulting you, kick their ass. If you get killed defending yourself, so be it, then you die like a honorable free man on his feet, rather than live like a pathetic slave on your knees. NOBODY OWNS YOU. NOBODY, OK ROGERDODGER??

Rogerdodger.. you talk about “true” authority like you have any idea what it is. There is no such thing as “authority” unless someone voluntarily grants it to another. It appears the EMT did not grant any armed thugs the authority to interfere in carrying out his life saving job so no one had authority over him. If you think a shiny badge and gun somehow grant you authority – you are completely insane… a gun merely makes it easier for stupid people to commit a crime… oh and the video just proves that! Moron!

Had the officer not been grandstanding and being the ‘little’ man for his wife, the situation you accuse the EMT of escalating would never have happened. The officer (I use that loosely) created a big piling steam of shi|t and if he ends up off the force, it will be none too soon.

The EMT worker did very well not to fight back considering the physical provocation by the cop(s). Showed his cool and maturity in the face of emotionally retarded, very possibly racist cops. If this had been a brawl between 2 civies the cop would have been prosecuted for starting the physical violence…
June 14th, 2009 at 1:05 pm
Reminds me of the video of the cop who arrested a fire captain at an accident scene. The fire engine was parked for the safety of the accident scene to protect it from other motorists and for the efficiency of extracting the victims. A cop told the captain to move the fire engine off the road, while the firefighters were working! When the captain refused the cop arrested him! The captain filed charges against the cop and won.
As a 28 year veteran firefighter myself in Michigan, we have had similar experiences with state troopers while at accidents on the highway. They think they are Gods and try to tell firefighters what to do. Legally, they cannot tell us what to do while we are saving lives or just doing our job on the roadways. These types all need to be fired.

I signed the petition . My mothers family had a 160 acre ranch 5 miles from Paden , Oklahoma . One of the reasons I liked my granddad so much was, he taught me early in life what the government was really
like . Half Cherokee and Half Irish he was not to be messed with . He would tell me ( back in the 60’s ) that
there was really very few politicians that actually cared about the people . One good example was a turnpike between Tulsa and Oklahoma City ( Turner Turnpike ) . They said it would be a free road once the
tolls had paid for it’s construction . That was over 30 years ago . If you were to count the number of cars ( at
$3.50 ) and semi’s ( at $ 13.00 ) in one hour . You would see that someone is making a TON of money . Yet,
the turnpike is constantly under construction ( near the highway patrol station , FINES DOUBLE IN WORK ZONES ) has no public restrooms ( except at the McDonalds ) and is narrow and dangerous .
Oklahoma as far as the average citizen is a descent place . But , as a citizen of this state you can only be
expected to send your tax money down a rat hole . No money for schools , police , emergency services , and we still have DIRT roads in rural areas ( can you believe that ) . It’s a shame because the state has been crippled by our government . We are central in the country . We have two major interstates I-40 and
I-35 . There is plenty of water ( man made lakes make us the largest lake shoreline in the country ) . And , at one time , we had a population of smart hard working people . But, since our state government decided to funnel and rape every dime and resource to their advantage . We have become a poorly educated defeated people who only hope to keep what we have left . I can just hear the scum come out and proclaim that it is just the opposite , in their best used car salesman face . Yeah , Oklahoma was a
good place and my heart still jumps when i hear the strong winds come over the hills . But . it makes me
sick to see what those in charge have done to it .

I say fire the trooper immediately but that won’t solve the problem. The only reason we’re talking about this is because there was a cell phone video that captured the incident. It took a FOIA request to get the dash-cam video, which they originally claimed did not exist (I offered to take bets that there would be “problem” with the dash-cam). For every incident caught on video there are 100’s that occur in secret. This is the law enforcement equivalent of “busy work”. It’s a lot easier for pussy cop to pretend he’s actually doing his job by pushing around an EMT or a 72 year old woman or a 15 year old girl in a jail cell than it is to man up and go out to confront real criminals. After they fire this thug, there needs to be a massive formal public investigation of police misconduct followed by debate over what measures need to be taken in procedure and recruitment to prevent this kind of thing from happening. There needs to be an immediate moritorium on police ordering people to shut off cameras that is enforceable as obstruction of justice on the part of the officer giving the order. Wre don’t need police to act like this to have a safe society.

June 14th, 2009 at 1:47 pm
What a crock of bulls---.
The brother had the courage to stand up for himself. The cop escalated the situation by pulling the ambulance over in the first place. Keep your racial insecurities out of the equation and maybe you’d be able to discern the truth. You talk about disrespect after what that police officer did to the man? The police don’t automatically deserve respect and as a matter of fact their track record has earned them nothing but contempt and distrust from all peoples in this country, whether purple or pink.
True authority? Give me a break. A police officer has no right to interfere with anyone as long as they’re not committing a crime. A police officer does not have the right to force anyone to obey their commands unless a person is directly endangering themselves or other people. A police officer does not have the right to question a person after a person has told them they do not wish to answer any questions. A police officer is not above the law nor are they above the people of this country. We pay their salaries and it is they who are answerable to us, not the other way around. If anyone needs to learn how to respect people it is police officers.

If nothing else, the cop has NO right grabbing someone’ neck like that unless he is fighting for his life. This could be catagorized in the attempted manslaughter category as the cop was hyped up on adrenalyn. No, this cop needs to fry. He’s lucky noone (victim) didn’t have a concealed weapon. I would think that would fall under the protection of self defensive had the cop been capped. Our public servants really need to be more careful.
June 14th, 2009 at 1:50 pm
I am SO glad that this dash cam came out and confirmed what we all already knew was the truth. I hope this serves as a wake up call to all police officers that they are not going to get away with treating everyone like garbage. Then again, look at what the outcome of the case was: The trooper got away with it because the county prosecutor felt that it would “not believe that filing charges at this time would serve the best interests of the public or interests of justice.” In other words, it did not serve the agenda of promoting jackbooted behavior by charging the trooper who was the clear aggressor and assailant in this case.

It appears that the powers that be are trying to drive a wedge between the police and the citizenry. One is left to guess the reasons why.
What is a shame though, is that the police are such willing accomplices.
So willing to harass, bully and fine ordinary people who display the temerity to freely go about their business.
So willing to defend their fellow officers when they break the law.
So willing to lie in that defense.
So willing to switch to black uniforms for the purpose of psychological intimidation. (thin blue line, anyone?)
True story – in seven parts.
1) An old man is shackled by police to a wheelchair. 2) A cop beats the old man with his club and fists. 3) The cop files assault charges against the man, and swears an oath to the false charges. 4) The force defends the cop’s actions, while those other cops at the scene act as accessories to the crime, also by bearing false witness. 5) Video of the event emerges. 6) The force continues to defend the cop, even in the face of false reporting by these “honorable” people. 7) The jury does not buy it and sends the cop to jail.
A sad tale, with a happy ending.
There may well come a time when the people (CITIZENS, not civilians), and the police will need each other. Let’s hope that by that time, the damage will not be so severe that common ground cannot be reached.

This “cop” was acting outside his authority. Therefore, YOU have every right to defend your self. AND that includes killing said “cop” if YOU BELIEVE that your life is in danger. I used to believe that cops were good. No longer. Lock and load.

That cop would have his block knocked off so damn fast you have no idea. He’d be lying on the side of the road with a broken neck while we drive to the hospital. Sorry, I respect authority but that was NAZI thug skinhead bulls--- that I don’t put up with under ANY circumstance.

I am not saying that you should become violent. I am saying you should take this matter into your own hands. Signing the petition is a good start. Letters and phone calls to the department would also be helpful. If you live in the vicinity of the department, stop by and ask what is being done. Let your local paper in on the story.
Or, are you saying you would not put up with it if it happened to you? I am jumping on you because I’m tired of seeing these posts. Guesing by your post, you went right back to your recliner.

I didn’t say I would kill the cop, obviously there are some bad posts by some stating things that they would do to the Police as a whole. Fortunately I’m not so privileged to live in the States but I am saying that I would have done what I said. Your tired of seeing these posts eh…then may I suggest not reading them, that’s a start. What is this Recliner that you speak of ?
June 14th, 2009 at 2:27 pm
What happened is, the law enforcement officer pulled over the ambulance without apparent cause, but then the victim of color takes the center stage, steady running that mouth at the cop, like somehow, thats gonna work. His refusal to obey the LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICER is what escaladed the problem. Its quick and easy to see the steady passive aggression from the emt towards the cop. Not one single time did he make a statement or guesture to defuse the situation because he, apparently has the right to argue with law enforcement officers. Good luck with that. Nowadays more than ever, we need each and every citizen to respect and obey our law enforcement officers, and to remember, they have the last word. This pretending that you can disrespect and disobey orders from a cop is rediculious and stupid thinking. The emt should be fired immediatly for disrespecting a LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICER! Thats the petition I want to sign.

Had there been an actual reason for pulling them over in the first place you would be right. In this instance it was merely a hot headed cop looking to push his weight around. I hope he gets the axe! He is an embarrassment to all good people who have EARNED the right to wear their uniforms.
Code Reply:
June 14th, 2009 at 5:45 pm
The cop had the right to pull them over because they were not running code, and disobeying traffic laws!! How hard is this for people to understand. Then the cop is confronted with a loud mouth prick and gave him plenty of chances to get back in so he could talk with the driver. The cop most likely would have explained the situation to the driver and one minute later they would be on there way. Again….. if this was a life leathening situation they would have been running code. The cop is not at fault! The big jackass in the back is what started the problem.

Code, I guess you thought you could just post your same argument without responding to the rebuttals to your previous post above.
The “running code” is NOT as black and white as you keep insisting, yet you blatantly ignore the facts. Again, running code is TOTALLY at the discretion of the EMT’s or Paramedics, in fact, it isn’t even something that is in a curriculum or in any protocol. It has to do with expediency and safety, and is determined at the time of the transport. There are plenty of times an ambulance travels on a highway or freeway wit hno lights or sirens because they can cause more confusion and hazard than just going at speed without them.
The cop would know if the ambulance was transporting someone or not. If passing from the front, he would have seen just a driver in the cab, meaning his partner was in the back with a patient. One behind the ambulance, this would be easily confirmed, as shown in the dash cam pictures. Additionally, if there were any question, he could simply radio in and ask the status of the ambulance.
How hard is THAT for YOU to understand? As Rik correctly said, he could have simply followed them to the hospital and spoken with them after they delivered the patient.
Do you actually think that a cop should be able to pull over an ambulance transporting a patient any time they don’t have lights and sirens on? That’s jut plain nutty, my friend. I can’t tell you how many times I transported patients with unstable fractures, especially those with suspected neck or back injuries, very slowly and with as few bumps and turns as possible. Does that make them a “non-emergency?” Apparently so, in your simple minded world. You see, sometimes you have to think before you speak or act. Again, God forbit it be YOUR mom being transported the next time this happens.
WakeUp Reply:
June 15th, 2009 at 1:09 pm
Let me ask you this, Code … If police are entrusted with public safety, what in your opinion should take precedence: Someone already requiring transport to a hospital, or a “potential” traffic safety hazard the cops felt was caused by the ambulance?
You need to get your priorities straight, amigo.

He’s probably on a steady diet of MSG/Aspartame food/drink, fluoridated water, many vaccines and other big pharma, tons of TV and many hours on his cell phone. Add that all up with a few head injuries, possible recreational drug use, including steroids, then divide that by a 98 IQ and ergo you get this behaviour.
He’s a disaster in a uniform and he’s exactly who they want as a cop today.

If you notice, everything was fine up until a certain point on the call where he is at that gas station. Something happened that made him backup and pursue the ambulance. He was either stalking his wife who was on the call and she flipped him off when she saw him, trying to get on the scene first to show his wife just what a man he IS when he saw his wife staddling the suspect, or another deputy constable grabbed his wife’s a$$ then turned around and gave this fella the bird and when he saw his wife laughing at him … well you get the picture.
Gray Days Reply:
June 14th, 2009 at 7:59 pm
here’s my take:
whilst showing off to his wife by driving at breakneck speeds, thus raising his pulse to approximately 160-180 bpm for an extended period of time, Officer Dribble approaches the ambulance and as is evident, it moves over for him. However, it didn’t do it in a manner deemed responsive enough for this clown, so he takes a glance into the cab to give the driver the thousand yard stare. Innocent Medical Professional notes this, and holds his gaze a split second too long and Supertrooper drops his rusk, accelerates past and glances in his mirror only to see the ambulance driver’s mildly apathetic single-fingered victory salute.
Fuming at such insolence, and realising it’s a misdemeanour and hardly worthy of even getting out of the car, he feels frustrated. it begins to eat at him, u can tell by his driving, until he pulls into the call and takes a cursory glance at the scene before deciding NO, I AM NOT GONNA LET THIS GO UNPUNISHED, IM DARTH VADER I AM.
the rest is history.
incidentally, flipping the bird is merely an expression of someone’s opinion. You are perfectly in your RIGHTS to say to a cop “i think you are a slimy c * u * n * t, this is my opinion” and u are commiting no crime.

They hurt the poor cop’s ego in front of his wife and made a hand gesture, how dare they!
Then again, why the hell was the guys wife in the damn police car while he was running “hot” as he states it? What if there was an accident and the wife was hurt? I know what, the tax payers would pay all medical and prob pay the lawsuit the wife would no doubt file. That actually happened where I live and since the f---er didn’t die and was paralyzed, the people have to come up with over a million dollars a year for his care,… BS
This cop needs to be fired!

Why couldnt his dumbass drive in the fast lane where it was obviously wide open? He just wanted to be an ass. Fire him, the state probably could save the money then.

After watching both video’s and reading the article above there is no one with eyes that could dispute that this cop lost his flipping mind. I think that his wife being in his sqad car with him was partly to blame on his display of ignorance show of force. I think that he was trying to show the little woman what a bad ass mother clucker he was. There were several statements he made to these EMT guys that just blew me away. Like, ” You don’t understand, I was going to help the Sheriff’s Department and your not an emergency. If being taken the the ER in an Ambulance is not an emergency then I’d like someone to tell me what the heck is. At the gas station he never even opened his door to get out of his car. As soon as the EMT’s drove by he turned his car around and pulled back out on the road just to go after them. Sadly this is becoming more and more common.
Should this young man retain his job, he’d better pray to the good Lord that he never has to be taken to the ER in an Ambulance in that county. He may find out that the ride to the hospital will be the scenic route and take an extra 20 or 30 minutes to get there. Hope his injuries aren’t too bad. Someone should explain to these guys that you don’t make enemies of the people that may someday save you life. DUHHHH

If only Offficer Martin knew how to drive, his error was in 0:20-0:40. Uphill in a curve limits the already restricted rear visibility of the ambulance.
and if the cop was doing his job, why would he be looking at the driver of the ambulance, instead of keeping his eyes on the road.

so what emegency was the cop going to, he drives in to the petrol staion sits there for 30 secs till ambulance goes by then decides to go after it. the police used there lights and sirens without it being an emergency that i could see in that video or else when they got there they would have and should have been out into that service station not worried about some marcho road game they where doing to some ambulance.

Lol wow, he thinks he’s slick, see how he drove ahead and stopped at the gas station, and waited for them to pass, HYPO’s are always like that here in Oklahoma, when u see them past ahead of u like that, better jus find a dirt road. They tried to cover up, but that guy with phone cam, was right on it, so hopefully(but doubt it) he gets fired, but just like most OKHP officers, they probably have a family member on some sort of council.

He’s going to arrest him because “You don’t talk to a state patrol officer that way”. Since when did the State Patrol have authority to swear at another human being for no reason. We have to take the power back and the only to do that is arm yourself. With a Video cam at all times and know your rights.

Its bad enough they sweep it under the rug. to add insult to injury they blame the victim
June 15th, 2009 at 12:07 am
I know you are watching this. The point of this is a police force completely out of control. The real crime is the police officer blocking the innocent by-standard from getting health care in a critical moment.
Obviously the organization that trained the officer if responsible for this. This is nothing but posturing and harassment, border lining on hardcore assault.
This has to stop. Was it necessary to apprehend the ambulance ?, why not follow them to the hospital at the very least.
!st mistake , was to pull them over, second mistake was to assault the individual in the back of the ambulance which honorably took responsibility up front.
BUT THIS IS NOT A FIRST. THIS IS HAPPENING ALL OVER THE UNITED STATES. WE ARE SEEING THIS BEHAVIOR MORE AND MORE ENDING IN THE DEATH. THIS NEEDS TO STOP.
The end result weather tomorrow or next year is fear and fear will turn to anger and anger to rage. Do you not see this ? Have you no historical education ?
all of this has happened before and end the end. the punisher will be punished.
when hate for police reach a certain level there is no turning back.
Here it is.. Everyone has been lied to and they are starting to figure it out. they are beginning to see past our now puppet government and its deeply disturbing.
Sooner or later the its going to be very bad. Hell look around, the rich are leaving the US. The politically wealthy are fleeing, large business owners have mostly left already
My entire family is planning on leaving the united states for good. they are old and can not defend them selfs against the new world order militarized oppression force.
You know who you are, and it don’t matter what you think, its all about perception and man the cops have a very very bad rap.
but its not just cops, it swat, its dea, fbi, cia, ria. You name it. OPPRESSION FORCE AND THEN heap on 50+ taxes a year and you have a very bad situation waiting to explode.
they are forcing people into a revolt, why can’t the police see that ?
answer, because all they do is take orders, thats it. the real criminals are the ones holding public office all around you.
telling you what to learn, how to act, how to look, hell the entire judiciary has been manipulated into attacking the population.
They have launched a full on war against the civilian population.
June 15th, 2009 at 12:20 am
I try very hard to avoid using unfortunate language on the comments page. But this matter seriously tests me.
Daniel Martin is a complete and utter racist moron. The decision of the district attorney not to charge hiim “or anyone else” (I assume that means the paramedic who was driving?) is yet another example of the corruption in the justice system.
Friends, we know what has to happen to Martin. I just can’t suggest it here.
Good work to everybody involved in getting this tape out. Thank God the internet is still free. For now.

You mean to tell me, that after watching this dash cam video, the district attorney believed it was appropriate to file charges on the EMT? Clearly the officer was losing his temper and attempted to arrest the EMT for no just reason and ended up assaulting the EMT. The EMT needs to press to file for civil damages against this officer for assault.

Remember police are just people like anyone else, they respond to how you talk to ,and treat them on a personal level. nearly all mistreatment I’ve seen throughout the years as a police officer could have been easily avoided by simple common respect. That may not be the case here, but that’s vary rare, and should be punished…

Check out my pastor and good friend. “Pastor Anderson Border Patrol” video up on youtube. Watch as the guy tries to search and arrest based on hearsay from the B/P then the Pirate says “because I said so” wait a minute, you can’t arrest someone based on another officers hearsay and because “you said so” it has to be within law. I’ve been through 11 years of police brutality on a weekly basis and even had firearms drawn ready to go on many occasions. Many times the local FBI had to tell the NAZI county sheriffs department to cool it and stop messing with us all along refusing to do anything about the Pirates. Watch the video, clear abuse of power.

The state in which I live the police officer would have been criminally charged with obstructing an emergency vehicle,which is a very serious crime,had the lady died the officer would have been charged with murder as well as the family bringing a civil action against the officer as well,the ladies family should sue the officer for damages,the EMT should file assault charges at the very least,the police officer was totally out of control,he even illegally pursued the ambulance after he had stopped when he pulled out of the store to follow he never turned his siren back on,the officer should be given a permanent vacation at the minimum.

You all keep forgetting that “Nazi” is a compliment to these cops. That old WWII Nazi masterpiece propaganda, especially the films of marching troops and swaggering Field Marshalls really gets them pumped-up and motivated to be “elite” and ruthless.
If you really want to insult, and set these guys off, in person, asked them how many times did their drunk father or mother beat them, or molest them. Or “you don’t have to hit people like your daddy smacked you around.” That hits home with those psychopaths.

rofl I was thinking the same thing. He was surrounded by 8 people at one point. He is lucky they didnt beat him to a pulp or worse. Clearly this officer was enraged at the fact that someone did not submit to his authority in yielding the right away and his anger was clouding his judgment. In his blind rage he was totally unaware of what was going on around him. In a different environment and with different people this officer could have ended up dead.

Not only should this asshole be prosecuted, but he should be sentenced to a unique sentence unlike other sentences. Because this douche tank was pullin this s--- with an EMT, he should spend the next 5 five years getting forcibly sodomized at least 3 times a day by pissed off EMT’s who are hung like horses, then he should be tazered for a minute or two, followed up with a good choke job and a boot to the head.

June 15th, 2009 at 12:56 pm
That was assault. Plain and simple assault. The language that the officer used was offensive and he wasn’t representing the state at that point. He was on his own, assaulting another person. Deadly force would have been appropriate by this point.
June 15th, 2009 at 1:01 pm
The more I watch the new video, the more ridiculous and out-of-line that cop’s behaviour appears. First, the cop absolutely “blasts” up the road, right up to the rear of the ambulance, which is in the process of *navigating safely around a car*! It is completely nonsensical that the cop is “angry” at the ambulance.
I watched much of these videos thinking “this guy is completely out of line”. I can draw no other conclusion except that he was seriously, seriously out of line, and on a real power trip.
Some questions:
1. Why is this guy doing driving around with his wife in the passenger seat?
2. Why does he drive up to this gas station, sit there for a moment, then tear-off back down the road after the ambulance? I mean, what is this guy’s problem?
3. Why, at the first hint of actually having to engage in conversation does he go into “rage mode” / “you’re under arrest” mode?
4. What’s with all the static at the end of the tape?
The unacceptable nature of this cop’s arrogant aggression needs to be pointed out to him or his bosses. The District Attorney was also very weak on this issue — for instance, he did not even mention Martin by name in his words (as presented in the article).

The actions of this uniformed thug are repugnant, beneath contempt and befoul the reputation of the ever decreasing number of honorable Peace Officers who actually take the job to “Serve and Protect”. This lying punk needs to be thrown out on his ear if not prosecuted and convicted for his irrefutably criminal behavior. This being said the more disturbing aspect of this incident is the willingness displayed by the Oklahoma Highway Patrol to paint the whole department with the same brush by first trying to conceal the actions of Daniel Martin then not even acknowledging his criminal actions or even firing him never mind bringing him up on the criminal charges he is guilty of once they were forced to reveal the truth. This patrolman is clearly guilty not only of the criminality he is committing on camera but discrediting the entire department which wilfully followed where he went and therefore the entirety of the Oklahoma Highway Patrol is discredited as well. Not only should Daniel Martin be fired but his superiors should be thrown out of the OHP as well. It is time to clean house in this department and every other one on the North American continent.

This officer shows the high level of misconduct in the entire police force in this country. It is now a good thing that most people have access to information reporting tools no matter how raw it may be.

you would think this is an isolated incident but there have been instances where cops follow ambulances to hospitals and arrest the driver for speeding.

“Some writers have so confounded society with government, as to leave little or no distinction between them; whereas they are not only different, but have different origins. Society is produced by our wants, and government by our wickedness; the former promotes our happiness positively by uniting our affections, the latter negatively by restraining our vices. The one encourages intercourse, the other creates distinctions. The first is a patron, the last a punisher.
Society in every state is a blessing, but government, even in its best state, is but a necessary evil; in its worst state an intolerable one: for when we suffer, or are exposed to the same miseries by a government, which we might expect in a country without a government, our calamity is heightened by reflecting that we furnish the means by which we suffer.”

Ah? The black dude should of been arrested for Obstruction of Justice and da white dude should of been giving a ticket for failure to yield to a authorized emergency vehicle. Whats the big deal? What I saw on the video was a police vehicle responding to a call, a ems vehicle in front ( with no lights on ) the had plenty of time to pull over to the side of the road. I saw the ems vehicle parked, again without lights. I saw the police vehicle pull up behind the ems vehicle. I saw the Police Officer get out and he was confronted by the black dude. Who was told by the officer to get back in the vehicle. He didnt, he should of been arrested after that. The driver of the vehicle should of gotten a ticket. So in essence, it was the officers fault for not arresting the black after the second warning. It is what it is people, the ems unit should of pulled over to begin with. The black dude should of shut his mouth and turned around and stepped back in the ems unit. If the ems patient was in such distress at the time, she should sue the black dude for leaving her side at a time of need. The police officer was right up to a point, both ems persons were wrong the entire time. Jesus, any person with a brain knows that.
June 15th, 2009 at 5:54 pm
This cop is a CRIMINAL and should be treated like one.
He is a BULLY and needs to be FIRED ASAP!
Notice how the DA was talking about pressing charges BEFORE the video was released but now that it is released he changes his mind. Hmmmm. Can we say that the DA was willing to FALSELY charges and arrest Maurice White? I think so.
The DA is just as CORRUPT as the cop and police department for trying to cover it up and FALSELY charge an INNOCENT man.
It is NOT a crime to flip off a police officer or to curse at them, although it was the COP doing all of the cursing and ASSAULTING!
I wonder why the DA does not feel the need to charge and arrest the cop.. I heard the cops dad is a judge, could this be the reason why? I smell TOTAL CORRUPTION!

The trooper had no justification for performing a traffic stop on the ambulance. Based on the totallity of the circumstances of the situation, the emt’s cannot be held liable for any crime. The DA knows this, that’s why though the trooper requested charges be filed, nothing can legally be done to the emt’s. There is not enough evidence to support the troopers claim that the ambulance failed to yield appropriately. Those are the facts. The emt’s can file a list of charges as well as the patient in the ambulance. It’s because of idiots like this trooper that I left law enforcement years ago. People don’t hear sirens or see lights sometimes, that’s just the way it is. Send the trooper to North Korea.

Since when is going after call about a stolen car more important than the an ambulance taking someone to the Hospital! People are to pull over when they see an emergency unit behind them UMMM what is an ambulance is?! An emergency UNIT! Since when is an ambulance to pull over for a cop or even slow down when they are rushing to the hospital?! I would have given him a rude gesture as well! This is just yet another show of a egotistical out of control cop doing what he wants to do cause he has a gun. And ummm if it was such an emergency why was his WIFE in the car!
Did not need for me to take a look at the son’s video to see that this cop has issues and needs to be taken off the force before he seriously hurts someone or kills someone!
I hope both ambulance drivers sue, I hope the children of the woman who was in the ambulance sues for causing more distress.
That cop had NO right to put his hands on this guy for speaking his mind! He kept telling him LOOK I have a patient in route the cop should have let them go. OR IN FACT NOT EVEN Pull them over!
Good Luck with getting this jerk fired!
