yes. i find that anytime i have not been brushed up on something i know of from the past of over 5 years, certainly 7-10 i am hesitant to state certainty about it. things are changing so fast its best to realize that you likely dont know the current state of affairs, esp with tech or regs.
Deleting data from your phone is helpful to law enforcement. If you understood how it was extracted on the back end you'd know that all you're doing is basically creating single recoverable file that contains everything you don't want them to see in one place.
Im convinced that the longer and the more senior you become in the police force, the more scrutiny you should fall under. It inevitably becomes a tyranny.
I'm over 15 minutes in, he's been served with the papers and still the phones haven't been handed over. Not a chance in hell any regular person is afforded that kind of leniency. Crazy.
SMH...the Sheriff thinks HE gets to dictate how things go..... "You'll get my phones AFTER I clear it with my lawyer"...... imagine you or I saying that to this Sheriff if he showed up with a warrant for YOUR phone. He'd probably violently take you down and arrest you for obstruction.
He DID dictate..temporarily. That's why public officials be treated with stronger hardship than the public, because their authority was ENTRUSTED to them..and they abused it.
In fairness, the warrant was to search his phone, not to force him to unlock it, which would be unconstitutional depending on how its locked. As noted in the video, the obsturction charge didnt stick.
70 years old! Just imagine the amounts of lives this corrupt and despicable being has destroyed and with how much criminal activity and corruption he has gotten away in all those years!
People don't realize how much power a small town sheriff has. I used to work for one that was crooked as hell. I dared to question one of his decisions once and that was the end of my career. He tried to frame me for all kinds of crap because I stood up to him.
For that you need overwhelming evidence, and they know how to destroy evidence. Every precinct will typically work together on the same crimes, and they have absolute immunity if judges and neighboring law enforcement are supporting them. @@jaysonwallker1648
Sheriff is a County level, not town. Police = Town, Sheriff Office = County, and State Troopers/Police = State. The power dynamic depends on the state who supersedes who and in what instance of jurisdiction. For my state the Sheriff, an elected position, holds highest priority within their given county over both local Police and State Troopers operating within it spare specific circumstance or metro area police departments per a County ordinance. The most common specific circumstances are disciplinary actions against the Sheriff issued by the state AG or when there is a operation of a Federal Agency with another Agency involved. Federal agencies, ie the FBI, typically under most circumstances that operate within it's own limitations, supersede any local jurisdiction. So while Sheriffs can hold a lot of power due to being a County level enforcement, they still must adhere to the will of the County Executive (an elected position most voters overlook), State AG and Judiciary, and of course Federal power.
Love how the guy talks himself into getting arrested. "Am I under arrest?" "Not now, you're not." "If I'm detained and not free to leave, I must be under arrest, and therefore I invoke my right to an attorney." "Cool, you're under arrest. Book him." "Book me for what?!" Dude... *you argued that you were under arrest*. How are you then going to yell about "under arrest for what?"
Imagine an innocent citizen dealing with this sheriff... that is scary... he thought he was above the law... wow, how many of these situations exist elsewhere?
Madison, Indiana only its worse, the fire dept goes and burns folks they don't like homes down for speaking against the corrupt law. The state fire Marshall's are even dirty. The fire chief Robert Black helped burn our house down. He was there before hours before house was on fire. The fire Marshal Joshua Watterson was part of the corruption. I've been a fire fighter in Texas for 20 yrs. I seen what caused the fire. It was oil thrown on roof. They said it was electrical. We turned power off when my family went out of town from outside breaker switch and locked braker housing. The lock was still on braker box and power switch off. Yes, I'm exposing the dirty fire Marshall and the chief, the fire dept is mostly drug abusers anyway. Never thought I would run into a corrupt fire department who would let meth heads be firefighters.
The under sheriff saying "I'm not going to get involved" as he's holding both phones, refusing to give them over. These small town sheriffs are legends in their own minds.
I'm surprised this isn't a bigger issue in the video. I realize that the PD is trying to play nice because they need to maintain a professional relationship with the SD, but the warrant is for the phones, not for the person who is holding them. Passing the phone to a second party does not invalidate the court order, and the sheriff treating it like its some kind of protection against compliance is ludicrous. The Undersheriff is obstructing justice by refusing to hand over the phones, and I wish the PD had simply told him so.
Right...and why was HE not charged with obstruction as well? Withholding material evidence that is spelled out in a warrant is the definition of obstruction.
The corruption in that dept starts at the top and goes all the way down. The Sheriff went to prison if that tells you anything. The under sheriff should’ve been arrested for obstruction too.
It's amazing how considerate these cops are of a fellow LEO even when he's being arrested. Anybody else who acted like him would have been thrown to the ground and tasered and charged with Resisting Arrest and Obstructing An Investigation and maybe even Assaulting A Police Officer for doing the same things he did. I guess charges of corruption don't mean much to a bunch of other corrupt people.
If this CLEARLY CORRUPT cop is finally being brought down this late in his career, we can only imagine how many crimes he’s committed throughout his years in law enforcement.
That sheriff office is about as corrupt as it comes. This Sheriff got three years in prison and the Sheriff before him got a ten year prison sentence and multiple underlings also are currently serving time in prison. We know how hard it is to get law enforcement officers prosecuted for their crimes and yet two Sheriffs in a row and their deputies ALL went to prison🤔
@@cletusaschoff7475 You can, it's covered in the 5th and 6th amendment. Once you invoke those rights, police can't do anything else without your attorney present, so in this case, it meant taking him straight to jail because the warrant is a legal court document, an attorney can not stop it, the only advice they would give you is to comply to the terms of the warrant, which the sheriff refused to do.
Excellent that you expose this sort of carry on…, I’m super glad that here in NZ we have very different & professional policing …, still always need to keep an eye authorities
Imagine if a civilian acted like this Sheriff. There would have been no patience and no respect. Face down on the ground with pepper spray and tasers. It's amazing how someone can be blatantly in the wrong and his buddies still back him up.
@@kathyinwonderlandl.a.8934was just gonna say anytime they show someone say the cuffs hurt it's always the same answer, "WeLl, ThEyRe NoT mAdE fOr CoMfOrT!"
This entire video was an absolute rollerocaster. The fact they didn't arrest him sooner really blows my mind and makes me fearful of the other corrupt cops and politicians in charge.
At the time he was not under arrest. All he had to do was give his phone to the officer. Then later when he refuses to unlock his phone and comply. Then he was arrested.
There is no way to completely remove corruption from any law enforcement agency. Who guards the guards is a classic problem. Even the DOJ and FBI are full of corrupt agents. The only good thing is that it's better than most of the world. Tell a cop he should 1. Serve the public trust, 2. Protect the innocent, and 3. Uphold the law. He will laugh in your face, it's just so sad.
@@2nickles647Not the conclusion you should take. They showed him nore patience than they would if he was a regular civilian. They should've arrested him way earlier for obstruction
@@dextersbeard3472 yes, it can be shocking. Like, being shot at by locals while camping and police protecting the attackers. Then there is the Battle of Athens. Honest people are sandwiched between gangs, one of them being police. At least unlike in my Australia, American police don't have a monopoly on violence. I read one story of an aristic liberal type woman moving to her mother's manor in a German country town. She wasn't a cultural fit with the locals, so to say, and eventually she was taken to the station on alleged DUI and beaten bloody.
The undersheriff is the sneakiest person out of everyone. Siding with them saying “I’m not surprised you guys are doing this…you gotta do what you gotta do…I keep way out of it all” and as soon as his boss steps back out he’s back on his side again telling them to leave. I know people like him. They’re the worst. Side with whoever they are around at the time.
God this is SWEET justification knowing that the prick sheriff has probably done this to dozens of innocent victims. Thank you for posting this Detective Williams.
Undersheriff should be indicted too and anyone under LUJAN should be fired.. they stood by a man instead of following the law.. they swore an oath.. they broke it.. FIRE THEM
@@N1120A im referring to the undersheriff. he received NO jail time and was allowed to retire with his pension in tact.. Lujan got a jail sentence but these unions are powerful and as such he will very likely lose NONE of his pension
There is something poetic about the chief crying that his cuffs hurt and the other deputies telling him they are loose. You know he's heard it a thousand times and never bat an eye 😅
"During my time as a Secret Service agent, I was all over the world working with different law enforcement agencies - big ones, small ones, rich ones, poor ones," Maez said, "and I have never, ever had the experience of dealing with a law enforcement agency like that of Sheriff Lujan's.
@@Falcon-um7vo It's difficult to be convinced otherwise when you have personally witnessed atrocities being committed by the police. I also have seen many clips of police officers who get special treatment if they've committed a crime and some lengths police departments go to defend their reputation. Many people have good reasons for believing in what they believe in, including you. I by no means think that most cops are evil- most cops are trying to do the right thing but there is a handful who unfortunately ruin it for the rest of them. Cops are human, humans could do better.
Seeing law enforcement take down _corrupt_ law enforcement is the *NUMBER ONE* thing they can do to restore faith in police. Not PR, not volunteering, not anything else. Just apply the law to their own people and do it immediately and publicly. They could change the ACAB opinions in a month of hard work.
They need to change how they interact with the public as well. The hate they justifiably receive didn't spring up from nowhere. There is a reason it's there, and it's growing. I'd say ask Orlando Castile about that, but you can't. He's dead. Pulled over for a broken tail light, died on Facebook live in front of the whole world, for nothing.
Just IMAGINE the cops showing up to a CIVILIANS house, with a search warrant to seize cell phones...and YOU claiming you refused until you spoke to your attorney...you going in and out of unsupervised rooms, etc? LMAO, there is NO WAY they would allow that.
@robertbarker5474 no you would be on the floor tased and shackled, charged with resisting, obstruction, and endangering the other clowns arresting you.
@@courtneylindsay7052 I'll explain because you're dumb. You have a right to an attorney when you are under arrest, which he wasn't. They had a WARRANT and it was signed by some high rank officials. If you do not comply immediately you should be arrested for obstruction but because this guy is a COP they showed him more patience than they normally would for a civilian

@@cb-tz8og Sheriff Lujan was sentenced to 3 years in jail plus 1.5 years probation on two felony convictions and plea bargained a third charge. He was taken into custody on Dec 2nd 2021. It was the Undersheriff that resigned to avoid a felony charge.
It is a shame these cops don’t have the nerve to treat him like they treat the common, everyday citizen! he would have been face down in the dirt in a heartbeat. The undersheriff needs to be fired as well!
That's 'cause standing up to your boss in LE can lead you to getting fired or worse. Which means you can potentially get less or lose all of your benefits at the worst. In other words, these people aren't in it for the job, just the benefits in the end. That's how the police unions work - don't mess with your own kind and you'll be fine. Mess with everyone else and you'll still get your retirement and medical, etc. Perhaps even if you're busted for murder of a civilian.
It;s simple the USA is a police state. So what matters is how much power you can project. If you are powerfull they will thread you nicely. If you ain't they will use you.
I understand why they have to be careful, things could scalate in such situations since the sheriff has power and bruised ego. It's definitely a sensitive situation, not because they want to protect the sheriff, but because things could get violent and unsafe.
The amount of effort it takes this police department to arrest just one corrupt sheriff is insane. I see why it’s so hard to hold police accountable in this country now.
"This is our house"... actually that department belongs to the people. They think that they can operate without any oversight and do whatever they want. It's disgusting but they've been allowed to act like this since the inception of law enforcement in this country.
That's House, with a capital H. I understand that it reall is how they think of it. Not too surprising when you figure how much time they spend in there with their 'family in blue'.
Yeah for real. And either way, even if it was “their house,” it doesn’t matter. If a normal citizen said “this is MY house,” to them they would just bust down the walls to get in.
not really though, you clearly have no understanding of most pricincts and are just going off your emotions and what you hear from other CZcams comments. Lmao, internet lawyers make me laugh
This lengthy "negotiations" would never happen with the general public with such a court order. He should have been arrested within the first 5 minutes!
the whole concept of them allowing him to "clear it with his attorney first" is pitiful. if they came to any of OUR houses with those warrants, we would have to hand it over immediately.
yeah this is what killed me he was served the warrant and then handed the phone over maybe he coulda gotten away with it if he handed his deputy the phone before they showed up, but he had no right to give it to someone else after being served
If he defies the court order he needs to go to prison for that and then add on the extra charges - 3 years is not enough just for intimidating a witness besides the aiding a felon. My next question would be looking at how many other felons he has aided!
Undersheriff Martin Trujillo was arrested following this incident for directing his deputies to point their fire arms at the officers serving the warrants. He was forced to retire in lieu of receiving any legal penalties.

yes. i find that anytime i have not been brushed up on something i know of from the past of over 5 years, certainly 7-10 i am hesitant to state certainty about it. things are changing so fast its best to realize that you likely dont know the current state of affairs, esp with tech or regs.
Deleting data from your phone is helpful to law enforcement. If you understood how it was extracted on the back end you'd know that all you're doing is basically creating single recoverable file that contains everything you don't want them to see in one place.
@@yungzynofficial2055 really good point! You’re basically putting the most relevant evidence into a neat little folder for them
@@yungzynofficial2055 Wow I had no idea of that. You might as well write a paper with attached foot notes.
Im convinced that the longer and the more senior you become in the police force, the more scrutiny you should fall under. It inevitably becomes a tyranny.

Exactly!!
I wonder just how much he was able to get rid of .. off his phones?
Hey it's amerika 😂😂
I think it’s because he’s armed and they’re trying to be civil
@@davidhuett3579 Its all recoverable
@@kcototheyoyoyo nah, if it were a civilian who was armed and not complying with a warranty, it'd be fucking go time. he'd be dead on the pavement.
SMH...the Sheriff thinks HE gets to dictate how things go..... "You'll get my phones AFTER I clear it with my lawyer"...... imagine you or I saying that to this Sheriff if he showed up with a warrant for YOUR phone. He'd probably violently take you down and arrest you for obstruction.
Undoubtedly! Then he’d tack on more charges after roughing you up a bit, and treating you like an animal inside of his jail.
I think there's evidence of a murder on those phones
He DID dictate..temporarily. That's why public officials be treated with stronger hardship than the public, because their authority was ENTRUSTED to them..and they abused it.
I know I just robbed a bank officer, but I won't give you my guns and the money I stole until after I clear it with my lawyer!
In fairness, the warrant was to search his phone, not to force him to unlock it, which would be unconstitutional depending on how its locked. As noted in the video, the obsturction charge didnt stick.
Watching his reaction to becoming powerless is epic. Shows what he really is inside.
Get it cleared through your lawyer??? LMAO 🤣 A warrant is a warrant there Barney! 🙄

People don't realize how much power a small town sheriff has. I used to work for one that was crooked as hell. I dared to question one of his decisions once and that was the end of my career. He tried to frame me for all kinds of crap because I stood up to him.
Should have brought some state troopers in.
It's not just small towns.
For that you need overwhelming evidence, and they know how to destroy evidence. Every precinct will typically work together on the same crimes, and they have absolute immunity if judges and neighboring law enforcement are supporting them. @@jaysonwallker1648
@@jaysonwallker1648for real they don't play
Sheriff is a County level, not town. Police = Town, Sheriff Office = County, and State Troopers/Police = State. The power dynamic depends on the state who supersedes who and in what instance of jurisdiction. For my state the Sheriff, an elected position, holds highest priority within their given county over both local Police and State Troopers operating within it spare specific circumstance or metro area police departments per a County ordinance. The most common specific circumstances are disciplinary actions against the Sheriff issued by the state AG or when there is a operation of a Federal Agency with another Agency involved.
Federal agencies, ie the FBI, typically under most circumstances that operate within it's own limitations, supersede any local jurisdiction.
So while Sheriffs can hold a lot of power due to being a County level enforcement, they still must adhere to the will of the County Executive (an elected position most voters overlook), State AG and Judiciary, and of course Federal power.
Hell ya 😭😭😭 this is hilarious on both sides! The patience with each other and not citizens is amazing
Love how the guy talks himself into getting arrested. "Am I under arrest?" "Not now, you're not." "If I'm detained and not free to leave, I must be under arrest, and therefore I invoke my right to an attorney." "Cool, you're under arrest. Book him." "Book me for what?!" Dude... *you argued that you were under arrest*. How are you then going to yell about "under arrest for what?"
Imagine an innocent citizen dealing with this sheriff... that is scary... he thought he was above the law... wow, how many of these situations exist elsewhere?
It goes on daily, anywhere these criminals are put in charge.
POC Don't have too imagine they live it every day
I think the more appropriate question is, how many situations are honest and free of this garbage?
"I am the law" - Sheriffs for centuries
Madison, Indiana only its worse, the fire dept goes and burns folks they don't like homes down for speaking against the corrupt law. The state fire Marshall's are even dirty. The fire chief Robert Black helped burn our house down. He was there before hours before house was on fire. The fire Marshal Joshua Watterson was part of the corruption. I've been a fire fighter in Texas for 20 yrs. I seen what caused the fire. It was oil thrown on roof. They said it was electrical. We turned power off when my family went out of town from outside breaker switch and locked braker housing. The lock was still on braker box and power switch off. Yes, I'm exposing the dirty fire Marshall and the chief, the fire dept is mostly drug abusers anyway. Never thought I would run into a corrupt fire department who would let meth heads be firefighters.
The under sheriff saying "I'm not going to get involved" as he's holding both phones, refusing to give them over. These small town sheriffs are legends in their own minds.
I'm surprised this isn't a bigger issue in the video. I realize that the PD is trying to play nice because they need to maintain a professional relationship with the SD, but the warrant is for the phones, not for the person who is holding them. Passing the phone to a second party does not invalidate the court order, and the sheriff treating it like its some kind of protection against compliance is ludicrous. The Undersheriff is obstructing justice by refusing to hand over the phones, and I wish the PD had simply told him so.
Right...and why was HE not charged with obstruction as well? Withholding material evidence that is spelled out in a warrant is the definition of obstruction.
The corruption in that dept starts at the top and goes all the way down. The Sheriff went to prison if that tells you anything. The under sheriff should’ve been arrested for obstruction too.
It's amazing how considerate these cops are of a fellow LEO even when he's being arrested. Anybody else who acted like him would have been thrown to the ground and tasered and charged with Resisting Arrest and Obstructing An Investigation and maybe even Assaulting A Police Officer for doing the same things he did. I guess charges of corruption don't mean much to a bunch of other corrupt people.
If this CLEARLY CORRUPT cop is finally being brought down this late in his career, we can only imagine how many crimes he’s committed throughout his years in law enforcement.
It's sickening to think about it 😔
well hes clearly got a bunch of his lackies in on it, so id say hes been doing shady stuff for awhile.
How is it clear to you?
He could literally be set up.
@@Asfanboy1 uhhhh innocent people don't act like this.
@@jolane3591 how would you know
The sheriff and every other deputies in the office need fired and charged for disobeying a court order
The courts should be disobeyed. And why should they bow down to cops? Cops are nazis.
That sheriff office is about as corrupt as it comes. This Sheriff got three years in prison and the Sheriff before him got a ten year prison sentence and multiple underlings also are currently serving time in prison. We know how hard it is to get law enforcement officers prosecuted for their crimes and yet two Sheriffs in a row and their deputies ALL went to prison🤔
The undersheriff turned himself in as well several days later.
@@darkside_xposure I actually think once detained a person should be able to talk to a lawyer once warrant given before search
@@cletusaschoff7475 You can, it's covered in the 5th and 6th amendment. Once you invoke those rights, police can't do anything else without your attorney present, so in this case, it meant taking him straight to jail because the warrant is a legal court document, an attorney can not stop it, the only advice they would give you is to comply to the terms of the warrant, which the sheriff refused to do.
Watching the sheriff be confronted in his own shop, every action he took is the action of a guilty man. Couldn't have played it worse.
Excellent that you expose this sort of carry on…, I’m super glad that here in NZ we have very different & professional policing …, still always need to keep an eye authorities
The smugness and sheer arrogance of that Sheriff is mind-blowing
He's infuriating beyond belief to watch. He is why people hate cops.
Sheriff is likely trying to protect his informant. Just my guess.
I wish it was mind blowing. But instead it's just expected.

How do we know the sheriff is the corrupt/guilty one?

Yeah but in the end SWAT was there along with the press to capture his walk of shame.
At the time he was not under arrest. All he had to do was give his phone to the officer.
Then later when he refuses to unlock his phone and comply. Then he was arrested.
There is no way to completely remove corruption from any law enforcement agency. Who guards the guards is a classic problem. Even the DOJ and FBI are full of corrupt agents. The only good thing is that it's better than most of the world.
Tell a cop he should 1. Serve the public trust, 2. Protect the innocent, and 3. Uphold the law. He will laugh in your face, it's just so sad.

Just apply the law to their own people and do it immediately and publicly. They could change the ACAB opinions in a month of hard work.
True, it's incredibly satisfying to see the rot removed.
They need to change how they interact with the public as well. The hate they justifiably receive didn't spring up from nowhere. There is a reason it's there, and it's growing.
