- Trooper's Report:
On February 5th, 2024, I was stationary in the median on Interstate 40 in Pulaski County near the 157 milepost observing
eastbound traffic. I noticed a White Mercedes Sprinter Van bearing Rhode Island license plate 86074 traveling east following a
Dodge Charger too closely in the left lane. I caught up to the van and made a traffic stop at 4:02 p.m. on the van near the 158-
milepost. The van took quite a few seconds before finally deciding to pull over. I came in contact with the driver whom I
identified as Paul Magda DOB: by his New Jersey license. I asked if he was hauling anything, and he told me it was
just a personal van. He told me he was just passing through and that he went to California to see some friends. He gave me the
registration and insurance card. The registration showed the van to be registered to David Scialo and the insurance was listed
as commercial insurance to a company called “Cousin's Freight”. I asked him who David was and he told me David was the
owner. I could see his jugular vein pulsating on the side of his neck. I told him to stand at my passenger window while I
checked his license out.
He stepped outside with his hands in his pocket, but he stepped in front of my patrol vehicle even after I pointed specifically to
my passenger-side window. I had to tell him again to come to my window. While at my window he kept chewing on something
very fast. He told me he went to Novato, California. He told me he was taking the work van back to "him" whom I assumed to
be David, the owner. He told me that “he” brought it out “earlier”. He told me he flew out to California and spent 3 or 4 weeks.
He told me he used to drive over the road when he was younger. I had trouble getting a return on the Rhode Island license
plate but was able to run it by the VIN and get a return. I asked how the van got out to California in the first place. He told me
"his uncle lives in Nevada”. He told me it was just a "family thing" as he stared back at the van. He told me he was just working
for “his uncle”.
I asked if I could check to make sure he had nothing in commerce. He told me “Sure, yeah.” He opened the van’s back door
without me asking. I noticed a couple of pallets with multiple brown boxes stacked on top of each other and wrapped in blue
plastic. The boxes had no markings on them which raised my suspicion. He told me "This is what I'm hauling for him." I asked
what was in the boxes and he said, “It’s uh, it’s uh, solar inverter parts.” I asked if I could check the boxes to make sure that
they were solar inverter parts. He started stumbling on his words and told me "You sure can." I asked if he had Bill of Ladings
for them and he told me no. I could smell what smelt like coffee beans inside. He stood and watched me unwrap the plastic and
cut open a box. He never said a word. I opened one box and could see black vacuum-sealed packages of marijuana.
I advised Troop A dispatch that I had one in custody. I detained Mr. Magda and read him his Miranda Rights. He stated he
understood. I told him I had been watching the vein in his neck pulsating this whole time. He admitted to me he was taking the
marijuana to meet someone in Roanoke, Virginia. He told me he picked it up in California a few days ago. I asked if there were
any guns or cocaine in there or "just marijuana" and he told me "Just marijuana". Inside the top box was a packing/flavor list of
different flavors of marijuana. It showed to have 17 boxes in total. That's the total number of boxes there were on the two
pallets total. There were approximately 241 packages of marijuana total weighing approximately 1 pound each. He admitted he
had made a few trips before.
He was transported to Troop A Headquarters and placed in a holding cell while we unloaded the boxes into the evidence vault.
He was then transported and booked into Pulaski County Detention Center on the following charges:
Possess with Purpose to Deliver Controlled Substance Schedule VI = 100 lbs 500 lbs- Class A Felony,
Possess Drug Paraphernalia-Class D Felony,
and Following Too Closely-Violation.

Let me guess before I watch video... He is following too close... ill be back
4:54 4:59 8:18 8:22 8:23 "He told me "his uncle lives in *_Nevada"."_*
No, he didn't. He said he visted *_Novato, CA,_* and "...his uncle lives in *_Novato."_*
Nothing to do with *_Nevada._*
well, wheres my prize
He sure was a polite guy. Hope when he gets out of prison, etc. he will change his ways and do something legal for a living. And Trooper Price you were also a very polite guy and we need more just like you. God Bless you while you are traveling those roads.
I'm watching this as I just got back fromthe cannabis store on my corner, I picked up 2 grams of bubble hash by a company called Carmel, 57%THC, for $40 CDN, Tax included!!! So glad its fully legal here in Canada, its sad to watch people's lives ruined trying to traffic in this substance, up here the black market for weed is pretty much dead, I don't know of anyone that still buys from " street" dealers, almost everyone buys from the legal stores now, black market can't compete with the price, consistency of quality, and definitely cannot compete with the selection available at legal stores, its too bad all states have gone fully legal, this is heartbreaking to watch people go down for a long time for trying to run weed through Arkansas of all places!! 🤦✌🇨🇦
If you’re planning to drive a van and/or rental vehicle and trafficking any drugs, AVOID ARKANSAS by all means!!!
Yeah BY ALL MEANS NECESSARY avoid as much as possible pay for the extra gas and enjoy your day fuck Arkansas 🤣🤣🤣 im sorry dude ill spend whatever in extra travel fees to avoid old Mr. Following to close
Agree totally they think marijuana is the big big bust there's nothing wrong with marijuana whatsoever won't they focus on the real drugs that's killing off the American people not marijuana
When will they learn 🤦🏾♂️ 😂
Yeah Arkansas does have some big bust of marijuana bust 90% of the times all they really get when they try a bust in the real stuff that kills people then I'll be impressed
No kidding then you got Tennessee next it's just as bad at least jump up into Missouri and cross through Illinois and Indiana etc states that won't put you in prison for the rest of your life over the bud I just go down to my local dispensaries to get mine
Trooper Price knew everything before the actual stop. ASP have good informants.
whisper stop
Honestly some days I feel like one of the coffee beans. Overlooked and uncared about.
Nah
You know it. They aren’t pulling people over for following to close unless they already know. I seen about 30 cars following to close just in this traffic stop. Out of everyone doing it he just so happens to pull the one with a big load doing it. Not a chance.
Side note this guy looks creepy. Really creepy!
@@byronrobinson8633 he’s interdiction this is not a undercover or wasn’t informed
Everything said is exactly what NOT to say “He pays me very well”, “He takes care of me “ , “I drove from California”. He begged to go to jail 🤣
That’s exactly what I thought. He spoke too much and gave the worst answers 😂.
All b3fore willingly allowing the trooper to search the van, smh.
The chewing of teeth was a big sign looked like he was tweaking
"Driving from California" is all trooper needed to hear
The "he pays me very well" comment told the trooper everything he needed to know!
Agreed
Also the part where he said, I don’t know what he hauls
Lmao seriously what an idiot
"He takes care of me"
Right?!? 😂😂
The ole “following too closely”. Yeah right.
It’s true he posted the police report
bro, WATCH THE VIDEO! you can CLEARLY see that the van was right up on the cars ass in front of it. so, yes the van was following wayyyy too closely. it was a legit stop.
They also think drug trafficking crimes are related to driving clueless they are
He was seriously right on their bumper. Could be
@@-Merkuleezyou are right, they are not. But when on the traffic stop I begin to find reasonable articulable suspicion that there may be an additional criminal activity a foot is when I begin to search deeper into just a traffic violation.
😂😂 He’s thinking that he’s got this officer right in the palm of his hand and they are all the sudden old friends 😂😂
😂
You got to give the guy credit. He didn't act nervous at all. Obviously, not his first rodeo. The officer certainly had some inside information and saw signs of nervousness that a lay person such as me would not pick up on.
@@explorenakedhe said "he saw the vein in his neck pulsating". Hell I get nervous and anxious when I get pulled over too even without anything illegal in the car 😂
@@explorenakedPlease. He went fishing 🎣. Caught a hungry 6 lb bass. The double digit bass was behind him in the semi.
😂
He blew it right away by saying it was a personal van rather than commercial. That gave away the game. Especially when Cousins Freight appeared.
Arkansas state troopers are something else. I’m from Louisiana and was taking my dad to Memphis to get him a new truck. And we had a rental car from Texas. Came up on a state boy and I wasn’t speeding had my cruise on like 3 miles over the posted and pulled us over. He said you know the reason why I pulled you over I said no. He said I clock you 10 over. I said no sir the car still was showing what I had my speed at. He said do y’all have any drugs and guns I said naw bruh I have cdls I work for a living just like you. He said well can I search your vehicle I said no sir. He came back and said y’all have a good day😂😂
That’s crazy!
That’s some sad/crazy/funny shit all in one
That’s always the correct answer. But, Then they’ll call out a dog so you’re still screwed. Best not to mess with drugs period .
@@bobbydee1187 even if the dog doesn’t tick they can just lie and say they did 😂😂😂
@@mustbemeechfacts
He went from happy to sad like switching a light. Never talk about the weather when pulled over.
Classic #1 way to let people know youre a liar
Thats what i said. Dude couldn't have been anymore obvious
Just answer what they ask u nothing more nothing less don't talk about what a beautiful day it is
I wouldn’t make chit chat with a cop.
@@timthompson8297Nope, Never.
Policeman playing 10 questions. It gets worse with every question.
Do Not Answer any Questions period. Id play like I can’t talk.
Always it should be" I don't answer questions." Period.
I never talk to police during a traffic stop, if my license, registration and insurance is what's being requested there's nothing for me to talk about!
If you are doing nothing wrong, there’s no reason not to
@@robjenstreet not so.
As a former trooper, he would get busted regardless of answering or not. He would have been asked if he could search. he could have said no they would have just brought the K9 unit. And if he claimed he's commercially driving, then Trooper has the right to search shipment because he is DOT
True
To all drug traffickers, if an officer asks you to stand by his car it’s a bad sign.
Yeah, I have never in all my years seen any cop tell someone to come to the cops car and talk to them while he sits inside the car like that. Either an informant or he was close to the real semi hauling shit and he was the fall guy 😂
Not really.
Man this guys story was horrible…. Tipped off or not… this is definitely another dummy driver
I would've just said I'm traveling the country stopping at all the Buc-ee's
@@tryppwyre that’s a horrible story haha
@@Gnarawrr i'd def be in jail
Funny, one just opened up in Northern Colorado, and my friend can't stop talking about going haha
Always remember trafficking drugs or not you don't need a good story if you don't talk to police. They aren't there to have a pleasant conversation with you. They are doing their job which is to gather any and all evidence against you. Being cordial with them will not dispel any suspicion they have. Even completely innocent talking openly with them comes with a chance of being erroneously charged with a crime. If you wait until they read you your rights to remain silent it's too late. If after they read you your rights you confess to everything you deserve all that's coming to you and more out of sheer stupidity.
These, Arkansas, law-enforcement officers ain’t nothing to play with
LOL if you're not doing anything wrong FUCK THEM. I would of said I don't answer questions, grabbed my phone and started recording, waiting for my rights to be violated on camera so I can get a fat paycheck. But like I said that is only cuz I ride clean and not doing wrong.
They always pull that following too close shit bro had at least 2 cars distance😂😂.
They have informants that tip them off and they have plain clothes officers in the drug areas! They aren’t slick……. Just avoid Arkansas and be smart key 🔑
@@AA-ji2my damn 🥺
I think they play with each other's booty in the locker room.
Officer Price humming the lyrics to “nah nah nah nah, hey hey, good bye” from the beginning of the stop! Lol. “I do this for a living sir”, is an understatement!
When the pig radios in he says "I have THE sprinter van loaded".
Definitely tipped off.
as a resident of California and Texas its crazy how you can get arrested for something so small in 1 state and order flower and get it delivered like a box of pizza in another..
Except you can’t have 240 pounds in either state, not like this at least unless you’re running a grow house or dispensary
@@wingstop7021He said he's a resident of California and Texas. You shouldn't expect him to know anything past basic addition and subtraction.
@@wingstop7021 and if he did that would be horrible 😂
Even more of a stark contrast is states with medical marijuana, where you can legally buy it at a clean dispensary and drive home as if you stopped at CVS, or risk jail/prison for many years
@@DavideousIII California does have medical marijuana, you can’t have 240 pounds of thc tho
He must have watched ol’ Clint Eastwood in The Mule.
exactly what I was thinking, just watched it again a few days ago. Damn Clint makes crimes look cool AF!
😂
Oh boy, that is what I thought as soon as he said he has very clean record. Loved that movie with Clint Eastwood. Real version of character on this video!
😂 playing nice old man with extremely wrinkled face 😂😂
He forgot to bring the Ben Gay...........
You know he shit his pants when trooper said "can I search those boxes"
No he just farted a few times…
He had to change his depends!
He probably shit as soon as he saw blue lights
Once he said that he took a flight to get to the van that sounds suspicious the officer knew something aint right!
This has got to be the most cooperative criminal I have ever seen. Nice Mercedes Benz van - probably thought he wouldn't get pulled over in such a nice car. These mules need to learn to change their routes and NOT go through Arkansas.
When your van smells like coffee beans but you say you’re carrying solar parts. lol His story was super weak but it wouldn’t have mattered. Trooper Price was gonna get in the back of that sprinter van, no matter the story, more than likely.
I swear he has some bloodhound in him.
he wouldnt have got in if the driver remembered the first rule of being stopped drivers license and insurance, then keep your mouth shut, also the cop even said it he opened the door,no to a search get a warrant
@@allankwiatkowski8217 The moment he had the puke walk to his side window is the moment the bust happened. Whether he got permission or had to call a K9 it was popped.
Be surprised what the human nose can actually smell when they know what it is they are smelling.
@@allankwiatkowski8217 likely another car with a K9 nearby to call in if needed.
I agree nothing that man could have done except kept his mouth shut which he didnt DUDE DUMB AS BOX OF ROCKS ADMITING HE KNEW ANYTHING;HE HUNG HIS SELF FOR SURE
Oh he was waiting on that van.
Yep, and the charger the van was following drove off into the horizon with coke, fentanyl and handguns aboard

SUCK, SUCK tha 🚓
Definitely knew in advance.
Either way they still got the drugs, good job
It's just pot. The federal government just needs to legalize at 100%
The van was a tip that was called in so the semi with the real load could pass right by. I’m just saying
Semi coming straight from Mexico 🇲🇽 loaded with goodies 🦜
They wouldn’t let 240 lbs just get pulled over they would sacrifice a 1-2 but not that many
@@Pawnshoppoppersthat ain't shit that 240 they caught it was 6,000 of em went by
was it weed or?
The cops really dont care, they get paid the same no matter what they find or dont find
this is absolutely crazy. Do you have 240 pounds of drugs and you drive in the left lane at 60 miles an hour? This is exactly the definition of stupidity.
He’s dumb 😅
What was the speed limit ? Isn’t 60 the standard speed limit on a highway?
@@UnbrokenWillll no it’s not

This was my neighbor and the whole block was out of product for a month. Really hurt some of us dependents
Move to a state where it’s legal then.
😂😂😂
First off that trooper leaving him free while he searched the van was crazy all that buddy had to do was kick that rear door closed and take off in the patrol car. You don’t ever ever ever willingly allow them to search your car. The whole idea of “coffee beans” is to throw a dog off the scent it doesn’t work when you say sure open my stuff and go through it. Every question should have a one word response…….”lawyer”
sureee..
Only to get pitted out a few miles down the road and more charges piled on to the ones he already had.
Man ASP has got some pretty good Intel on these guys there's no way no way that this is a random bust
They're just good at their job, they know what they're looking for.
@65cj55 yeah cuz somebody told them but yes they are good at what they do
he did spend a lot of time fishing
It was not random. And it is always for following too close lol.
In the current year, when anyone says 'random,' we can relax in the knowledge that it wasn't random.
Psychedelics saved me from years of uncontrollable depression, anxiety, smoking, and illicit pills addiction. Imagine carving heavy chains for over a decade and then all of a sudden that burden is gone. Believe it or not, in a couple of years they'll be all over for treatment of mental health related issues.
Psilocybin is legal in some states and mushroom therapy is allowed in many states as a legitimate medical treatment. So I believe soon it'll be globally used as a treatment for anxiety, depression, and more.
To be honest, mushrooms are one of the most amazing things on the planet and it is natural, they serve in many ways not only for mental related issues.
Can you help me with a reliable source I would really appreciate it. Many people talk about mushrooms and psychedelics but nobody talks about where to get them. It is very hard to get a reliable source here in New Zealand. Really need!
Yes, Sporeville. I had the same experience with anxiety, depression, PTSD, and addiction... Mushrooms definitely made a huge difference to why I'm clean today.
I wish they were readily available in my place.
Microdosing was my next plan of care for my husband. He's 59 & has many mental health issues plus probably CTE & a TBI that left him in a coma 8 days. It's too late now I had to get a TPO as he's 6'6 300+ pound homicidal maniac. He's constantly talking about killing someone.
He's violent. Anyone reading this Familiar w/ BPD knows if it is common for an obsession with violence.
Good job ASP you seize 240 pounds of a drug that won’t kill a single person.

That is one strange way to get from northern California to New Jersey. I 80 would have been the quickest route.
I wonder how many of these cases end up getting dropped for illegal search and seizure? Not only was he not following to close, an excuse many of these officers give for pulling people over, but there was no reason to have the guy get out of the van. He gave the officer his license, the registration and proof of insurance.
I-80 is to desalint. Easier to blend in on i-40
The driver wasn't too smart speeding with drugs that van was new has a cruse control he is tailgating and speeding. Then after he is cuffed and told he has a right to remain silent and to an attorney what does he do tells the officer everything.
Why don't you try it yourself and find out. Make sure to smile to the judge for extra points.
@@8.-.3desolate
After he got cuffed, he said he was going to Roanoke, VA. Also, cops can legally tell you to get out of the car during a traffic stop.
Giving permission to search and answering questions for a basic traffic stop. He should have shut that down early
Doesn't matter. He had shipment paperwork. That makes it commercial. Trooper was searching it because he's DOT
I had a friend of mine in the early nineties get busted with 600 lb of weed sentenced to 35 years, meanwhile another friend of ours had two different capital murder charges did 10 years of Peace for both and now he's out of free man and our friend with the 600 lbs till this day is still incarcerated for the 600 lbs of marijuana. Go figure weed is more important than capital murder

Feel bad for the poor old guy. Current state of the economy will drive some people to do whatever it takes to survive, and this is no exception. He was super nice, and didn't resist, seems like a decent guy. Too bad he got tangled up in that business at his age.
For a plant that grows out of the earth.. what the fuck is wrong with this world man 😣
Blaming the economy is crazy haha this guy was trying to take a short cut in life and got caught
He’s a boomer and should’ve had millions in home equity after buying it for $40😂 that’s his fault. He had the best economic opportunity available to any generation in America and he squandered it. That’s his fault. Maybe he should pull himself up by the boots straps!!!!

Man but when its a black guy its a drug dealing thug
This is clearly a targeted stop, no question about it.
The officer owned him. He played him like a cheap harmonica. Don't get out of the vehicle unless you're ordered to. He had you by that window where he could read your body language... and certainly don't answer his questions so freely, if at all. Then you consent to the search, and talk like a parakeet. If you're gonna be hauling something like this, at least have some basic, common sense knowledge of how to behave after you're stopped. ( Of course, the first and most obvious way to avoid this, is to not take part in illegal activities)
take notes drug dealers and mules this man is teaching how to be a career criminal
Let me guess before I watch video... He is following too close... ill be back
well, that was an easy guess...These Cops go off tips, not a vein in the guys neck, too funny
@@jeffreygeorge219absolutely and it is always following too close BS
😂😂😂
Actually, he was following too closely! Go back to the beginning when Trooper Price was sitting in his unit! You could see the van 🚨 coming into view- he was following close to the car 🚗 in front,
Literally the same thing every single time lol. I just want to know who is dropping these tips. And for all the meat riding boot lickers that need to touch grass, no cop asks you to step out and walk back to their car during a routine traffic stop (to check you out and make you feel nervous)
Just make the whole van from pot like Cheech and Chong did.
Grand film 😂😂😂👍
Completely los, due to incompetence
Operation Hardhat! HARD HAT!
I was just about to comment ... have these big dummies learned nothing from Cheech & Chong !! Kiss that "impeccable" record goodbye for his "good buddy who takes very good care of him" 😂😂 At 70 years old, not his 1st rodeo & still can't tell a lie to save his life. And at 70 years old that would make his supposed "Uncle (that he works for) how old exactly ?? 😂 I was also curious how much these morons make to take this huge risk but he wouldn't spill the beans on that one. 😂
Open up, man, it's me, Dave...
The trooper usually says 'i got you' 'I got you' but the person doesn't know it has a double meaning.
I hate watching these cops turn their backs on these criminals without searching their person first. I know that cops want to appear like they aren't suspecting anything but there's a point where it becomes reckless.
I loved that the trooper was humming!
Glad it's not my heart when that cop pulled out after passing by with any weed much less 240 lbs.
My man's was thinking about hopping into traffic there for a second 😂😂😂
alot of people probably dont know this but its common knowledge between truck drivers that the cargo area of any commercial vehicle in the us can legally be searched at any point in time with absolutely zero probable cause… why do u think the officer was hovering over the vehicle being commercial? because he knew he could search it regardless what the driver was saying.
what about if the van like that is listed as passenger van (but seats were removed) does the plate have to be different?
That’s true. On semi trucks they can search anytime 24/7 without consent.
He said it was a Private vehicle tho....not commercial. You can't search a private vehicle without consent
Aha! Registering it commercial was Mistake #1.
@ninobrown5363 he also said the boxes had solar inverters. Who cares about what he said lol
👍👍🦊 Lets all say a prayer for the Coffee beans who sacrificed themselves ! That is a sin! ☕☕

Sur autrement ils ne feraient jamais d’arrestation en France 🇫🇷 c’est pareil pas d’indicateurs pas de prise !!!!
Nah. This video just follows the "availability heuristic" which biases viewers like yourself to believe that they have an unbelievably high success rate at doing this. In reality they have been fishing for a win for a while, but no one posts those on CZcams. Also, all of these guys have a tell or are bad at talking. You could tell by around the 5:45 mark this guy had stuff by how his story was put together. This is how state police operate on major highways like i40. All of the stops are the same. All of the stories and tells are the same. All of the vehicles are out of state sprinter vans or rental cars. Not one of them know how to invoke the 5th...
I'm amazed at how this officer allowed the suspect to stand over him through the passenger window. (Advantage ..suspect) and then to turn your back on the suspect who is Not handcuffed or restrained and crawl blindly it to the van is asking for a disaster.
Charges could've been thrown out if he had handled it differently, but most people in his position roll over as soon as the get the chance 🦧
Coffee Pot !!!
I see what you did there !
Lolol
wake and bake flavors LOL!!!!
As soon as he told the trooper that it was a 'commercial' van it was all over. That idiot had no idea what he was saying, and the ramifications of doing 'commercial' interstate transport. At that point the trooper doesn't even need probable cause to search. This guy's not so bright, that's why he's doing the dirty work.
That wasn’t close. They probably got tipped off
Number one reason, people get pulled over while smuggling is following too close, people pay attention.
Keep good distance while Transporting As long as you don't break any traffic Laws, you'll be okay.
U will have a better chance at beating a case
The 240 pounds seized were a decoy vehicle so 240000 pounds could get safely delivered.
Bullshit almost as bad as the informant comments
Same old tired excuse. But ain't happening.
That’s moronic
was thinkn that also,speshally when the driver stated that the price was still negotiable...i mean really...🤷
Noppe
You know it's a good "bust" when you need a trolley and extra people to help you unload the contraband.
wonderin if he will get the van back,askin for a fiend...i mean friend.
"Care if I check these boxes make sure theyre solar inverter parts?" 😂
"I've got an impeccable record." And I was over here like, Not after today. lol.
Legalize cannabis in all 50 states. What a waste of resources, for something so much less harmful than alcohol!
You're forgetting the illegal transporting part. It's going to be like they even even they make weed not a crime. Everything has to be taxed remember they
It does damage fr y’all just addicted to your master plant
It stinks like hell and beware ....many dealers are putting in fentalyn in with their weed "filler" .Its odorless and tasteless.IT CAN KILL YOU
Was a trucker but doesn't know what a CDL is
@maxxw7327 that's not accurate. CDL started in 86 before that itp was regulated by each state
If there was a tick that could tell police you are questionable, this man had every single one of them. His body never stopped moving, hummed at slight breaks in conversation, and the amount of umm's...
Imagine how many parties are going to be boring as hell without this stash!! But the sheriff and the whole precinct is going to have a party to remember TONIGHT!!
Keep snitches on watch your best buds are always the ones 😂
Best buds... I see what you did there
U can’t spell or read he posted the police report
@@-Merkuleezyou see these sorts of people in these videos all the time. I think it's an ego check. They can't possibly fathom the police doing a random traffic stop and uncover drugs during the investigation. They are always "tipped off" apparently
One of the easier arrests I've seen, no fighting, struggle or arguments. Guy actually seemed somewhat cooperative too. ASP killing it as usual, nothing gets past them
Really it’s the opposite. Most everything gets passed them. Besides the ones they get tipped on. Very few.
@@byronrobinson8633 So they were tipped on a white Sprinter van with N.J. plates but he had to tell his supv on the phone what it was and what he got when he placed the call.
OK.........
You just don't get it@@Ray56z
@@Ray56zActually it had Rhode Island Plates. And yes they were tipped. Happens all the time.
The mule will testify he didn't know what he was carrying, and it is even possible that he intentionally didn't know. (he knew it was dodgy, but not specifically)
That is why they use mules.
I hope everyone knows these troopers have already been tipped off. They're not randomly stopping people and "reading" them.
I've been pulled over speeding on rental cars a few times around the country, including places like Arkansas. Sometimes with one way rentals. Never had issues. If anything they oddly let me go with just warnings.
did you happen to be carrying 240 lbs of weed? if not how do you know how your body reacts in that situation.. I play poker for a living people act wayyyy different when they are nervous
I’m from the town over from Novato California and this dude looks crazy familiar 😂 Was shocked to hear him say that he was coming from Novato
On a side note… it’d be great if officers enforced the passing lane law. Nothing irks me worse than not being able to pass traffic in the fast lane because some chomp won’t move over. I ride their bumpers too.
It does my head in. Either overtake and move right or sell your car and catch the bus.
Impeding either the left lane and left lane camping should be a felony
Take note mules: Bypass Arkansas at all cost. 😊
trooper fantastic job ,outstanding work
As a former trooper in missouri you're trained to look for vehicles for possible transports. Rental cars, box trucks etc with plates from hot zones such as Oregon. Texas. California. Florida etc. Any state that has a high number of Trafficking. Arkansas is by far the best troopers. Them and Indiana will catch you every time. Go up into Oklahoma and into missouri. Just skip Arkansas all together. And of course they will hit you with following too close. But he had you at a different state plate
Wow! Great Discovery! I love the part where the officer said, "The veins in your neck pumping away were enough to give you away." When this guy gets out of jail, I guess he will be wearing turtleneck shirts or sweaters...!!! 😅😂
😂😂😂😂😂❤❤❤❤ lmao
He might not make it out of Arkansas alive. There pension are brutal and there judges don't play either.
He’s goin to federal camp. Mandatory minimum on 100kilos is 5 years.
I have probably cause to search your vehicle because of that pulsating vein in your neck
Know they pissed! Bought all that coffee and still didn’t work!
0:53 Dude said he was living in New Jersey, had just visited California and was on his way to Rhode Island. They are in Arkansas. So tell me this, what are the chances that the green car that was in front of the van and pulled over to let the ASP car by, is also from New Jersey?
The ASP pulled the van over because he said the van was following too closely to the car in front of him; the green car with a yellow plate (New Jersey has yellow plates). If you look at the sequence of events before the cop pulled the van over, the green car had no reason to pull over. There were four vehicles in the left lane moving past the semi in the right lane. Two of them passed the semi and continued on, but the green car pulled to the right behind the semi, the same truck he was trying to pass just a moment before, and for no reason. He was making progress to pass the truck but then slowed and pulled over in the right lane. The ASP had not yet turned on his lights or sirens so once again, why did he pull over? It wasn't to let the van by since if he had continued on, he could have pulled over in the right lane in front of the semi instead of behind it.
The green car with yellow New Jersey plates pulling to the right makes no sense considering what he was doing just seconds before.....UNLESS, he was also involved in the transportation and saw the cop car coming up behind them and wanted to see if the ASP car would pass them.
Dude driving the van said his boss sent him there by plane to pick up the van, but I think he drove to California from New Jersey in that green car with the New Jersey plates and was just driving it back because it was his turn to drive.
Shit happens that's why you should never take the chance to ruin your life
@8.-.3 exactly and this guy was a retired 70yr old he had no business driving from California to Virginia with 240pds of weed good grief 🫢
@@stacyjohnson42 Probably some homeless dude living on the streets agreed to haul it for cartel. Problem is he, or his family will be required to pay for the cartels losses or they will murder him in prison.
Good catch
Yo good catch that's crazy
Drove a semi over 30 yrs ..loved it , never went to school …
Wow, this ASP trooper is amazing, he should be a medical doctor, he is better at diagnosing people than anyone I ever saw, how great a policeman
At 14:50 the cop calls someone on his cell phone and says "I got the Springer Van Loaded" so YES. This was a tip off and an intended stop. Who ever he called already knew about a sprinter van and what it was hauling.
He said “I got a sprinter van loaded”, not THE van, just a van.
I like this ASP Jacob Price, calm, cool, dedicated, just like my favorite ASP Anna!
15:13 i could swear hearing Anna screaming at him over the phone saying "HOW MUCH"
Keep up the good work ASP! If more police departments did their job like you guys, the price of bud would go back up :)
They say the dumbest shit to say your nervous "your vein in your neck was throbbing" 😂
I love the police officer s accent
Marry him
Its crazy...the cops have full long-winded convos with u during the fishing expedition, and the 1st thing they say when u fuck up: "u have the right to remain silent" 🤦🏾♂️ just stop talking to these officers man. And most definitely dont consent. Jesus Christ
I know JESUS CHRIST as you said His name.
He has truly changed my life.
📖 John 3:6
Never ever talk to police EVER, that’s how they get you, all highway stops they ask “Where you coming from” “where you headed to and how long were you out there for” just say here’s my license insurance and Registration and oh by the way I DONT ANSWER QUESTIONS!!!!
Although this is 100% the correct way to handle it, I swear they will use that as probably cause to search your vehicle
Great job by Trooper Price! Note to self...don't speed/do anything stupid in AR!!
I’m from Chicago, & even I know this…
It’s literally the guy from the movie “ The Mule “ 😂
Yes literally .. clint would be proud
These people need to stand up for their rights more. Should’ve never gotten out of the car or explained where he was going. The cop can fish all he wants for as long as he wants and the more he does the better a chance of the case has getting thrown out
I was thinking the same thing… where I’m going or coming from is none of there business… give me my ticket or let me go… And no you can’t search my vehicle call the dog…. I’m definitely not making it that easy for them…
Yea best case scenario tell ‘em no you can’t search & hopefully there isn’t a dog available or on shift!
For people saying that they wouldn't let him search, hes in a commercial vehicle. Leo has every right too just by it being commercial.
Lol my neck vein is protruding, and you're going to use that line on me??? Gimme a break
- "I don't consent to any searches"
That 3-second sentence could have saved him from a 10-year sentence
K9 officer would have showed up
@@natedowns5 You are correct, but if the weed was triple vacuum sealed the same day, it's unlikely a dog would smell it. Especially if it was packaged in a clean environment and everything was cleaned with alcohol wipes after sealing.
Smells can leak through vacuum-sealed bags but it takes time. It should take over 24 hours for the smell to leak out of the 3rd sealed bag.

@@greg4172a dog would smell it , but it doesn’t matter , according to Supreme Court an officer cannot take a period of time past what it takes to write a citation in order to wait for a K9. If the officer said he was going to call for a K-9 unit all he needs to say is “I don’t want to wait any longer than I legally need to , please give me my citation so I can leave , am I arrested or legally detained?” If it takes any longer than 10-15 minutes from that point to get your citation it’s obviously too long to keep a stop going , and them being on a highway it’s likely longer then 15 minutes for a K-9 unit to show up , unless of course this stop was called in by a tip and the k9 was already there
Not gonna be 10 years. If feds pick it up since he crossed state lines it would be 60 months. do rdap programing he will get out in 30 months.
@@greg4172 The voice of experience 🤣
That old age will hit him like a ton of bricks now that he's in prison
NEVER let them search the vehicle. And there’s zero need to get out of the van, legally you don’t have to exit. Know your rights
There are hundreds of videos on CZcams of officers pulling amateur lawyers out of vehicles that are repeating this nonsense.

What is with the
CHEWING ?
Typical meth user

Bird nuts
That's what I want to know!
4:08 The driver could have shot the Trooper. The Trooper didn't look to his right to make sure it was safe when the driver got out of the vehicle.
only a crim would think of that,im jus sayin.
@@dmystify1381I was thinking the same but I’m not a criminal lol I was just like yooooo don’t turn your back too much lol
This guy David has just lost a nice van. He should be arrested too. Maybe this mule can work out a deal with the authorities. These are hard times we are living in. People resort to doing things it seems that they would probably never do in their past. Glad that haul isnt going to get out on the streets. Thank you Trooper for all you and all the others do daily. Please be safe out there.
A lot of people seem to think the cop was tipped off about this. I think State Troopers are pretty well trained in being skeptical when pulling over vans and trucks lol. They’ve seen all the signs you could find during drug busts. It happens all the time.
