Please review this important DISCLAIMER.
  • Christian County, Mo. — On Patrol: Live caption: “Report of yelling.” Deputy Trevor Guinn makes contact with a male outside his home who is eating some Shepherd’s pie during the conversation. On Patrol: Live caption: “Taters & tantrums.” The issue allegedly involves a money dispute for “all kinds of stuff. ” Deputy Guinn: “I understand people owe you money, but you probably shouldn’t just cause a disturbance, yelling and screaming. So that’s why we’re here…you can’t let your pride get in the way of $60.” When the subject mentions that he just got back from work and “I got a lot on my plate,” Deputy Guinn quips “clearly, you almost had finished your plate.” The deputy also says “maybe” and/or “soon” when the man seems to wonder if he’ll be on TV. “I don’t want to be on TV,” the subject adds.

Deputy Guinn recap: “So it sounds like he admitted to everything…he just screamed…over — he said tattoos and stuff. I probably believe…a good chance it’s over dope…we’ve had issues for him for many, many years. So looks like he’s gonna go in and finish his Shepherd’s pie, and we’re gonna be on our way.”

  • Wheeling, W.Va. — Sergeant Jason Hupp and other units on a traffic stop. Two occupants. One of the occupants has a city warrant allegedly for missing a court appearance, and which apparently only requires a rescheduled court date. Sgt. Hupp has a somewhat contentious, circular discussion with the passenger about Miranda rights and other topics. “I’m not stranger. I’m Sergeant Hupp. Nice to meet you.” Car search. Both occupants are released. Abrams: “So looks like he’ll be able to go watch the game.”
  • Christian County, Mo. — Deputy Jacob Woodcock attempts to catch up to a speeding vehicle on the highway that’s also turning on and off its lights. He subsequently spots a vehicle in the Walmart parking lot that allegedly matches the description “and the plate matches except for one letter on it.” The deputy makes cordial contact with an older couple at the car who have a toddler in the vehicle. The wife/passenger seems less than pleased with the police contact. She also mentions that “I don’t watch too much damn Cops, but I know what they do.” It turns out that it’s not the vehicle in question, and they are released. Deputy Woodcock: “…we’re gonna keep looking for the correct vehicle. You guys are good to go. I just wanted to make sure you weren’t intoxicated…sorry to make a whole commotion and the whole scene…that’s our job…” The On Patrol: Live cameras spot an unrelated Ghostbusters– or Back to the Future-style vehicle passing in the background
  • Daytona Beach, Fla. — Officer Michael Siena makes a friendly traffic stop on a pickup truck for alleged careless driving. Lieutenant Richie Maher is on scene as backup. The driver informs the officer that she has a weapon in a bag in the vehicle. Officer Siena: “No worries…I appreciate you telling me…I have guns in my car, too. Nothing to be nervous about…” The motorist is released with a warning: “Drive a little safer going on, okay? I just want you to slow down, be a little safer. You’re good to go…”

Listen below to Officer Siena’s initial summary:

[The panel banters about #OPL footage of Dan Abrams awkwardly riding off on the back of a motorcycle at the conclusion of his October 17-18 field trip to Daytona Beach, a.k.a. #Dantona. Abrams: “I had a great time being down there. I didn’t meet that particular officer. I met just about every other one we’ve seen on the show. On Patrol: Live guest studio analyst Sean Larkin: “Including the guy that owns the motorcycle.” Abrams: “This is true. Sean Larkin gave me a lot of grief for riding on the back of a gentleman’s motorcycle…Sean Larkin wrote me, saying ‘dude, get off that guy’s motorcycle’…the funny thing…[the motorcyclist] actually said to me, ‘why don’t you ride with my wife?’…she was on a separate motorcycle, and I actually tried, but she didn’t have room in the back. We were running out of time for the end of the show…”]

  • Knox County, Tenn. (pre-recorded segment) — K9 Officer Brad Yearout conducts a traffic stop for allegedly not coming to a complete stop at a stop sign. Upon being asked, the female driver insists “no drugs in this car.” The female driver declines a consensual car search. K9 Bruin sniff; apparent alert. Car search. Crack allegedly found. Officer Yearout: “We ended up with about two grams of crack cocaine. She’s going to jail tonight. Don’t smoke crack; it is whack.”
  • Lee County, Fla. — Deputy Mike Knapp responds to a report of someone allegedly knocking on doors at a motel. The deputy makes contact with an individual who seems to say that he allegedly ingested 40 Benadryl. On Patrol: Live does not provide a follow up to this encounter.
  • Berkeley County, S.C. — Deputy Kaitlyn Barry responds to a report of an armed robbery in progress at a convenience store. Corporal Ronnie Russell also responds. At the time, it’s unclear if anyone is in the store. It subsequently turns out that someone was shot at the location. A large group of officers arrive at the location. The crime scene is cordoned off with police tape. Abrams: “We are required to stay behind it for now.

Listen below (before all the facts of the incident emerged) to the studio panel discussing the general police strategy:

Listen below to some further information from Deputy Barry and more studio commentary (Abrams: “So this will obviously become a high priority in this area, both based on the number of robberies and the fact that someone was shot…”):

Deputy Barry update: “So we responded to that scene. It was a confirmed armed robbery. We arrived on scene. We cleared the building. The suspect had already left in a vehicle. We located the victim behind the counter. We provided life-saving measures. Unfortunately, he passed away. So now we have detectives on scene looking at camera footage, collecting evidence. And as much as it would suck if it was involved with the three armed robberies earlier in Summerville [S.C.], it might have — give us a better chance of getting more evidence to solve the crime so that we can stop whoever was out here doing senseless crimes this evening.” Abrams: “Obviously, that is a heartbreaking update to get. Somebody died there…”

Listen below as Captain Tom Rizzo and Sheriff Johnson inn the On Patrol: Live studio describe the investigatory techniques that detectives will likely use in attempting to apprehend the suspect or suspects including vehicle data and cell phone pings along with video (“technology’s gonna be key”):

Watch a local news report about this fatal shooting incident:

 UPDATE:  Law enforcement authorities have arrested a suspect in the Berkeley County shooting.

  • Daytona Beach, Fla. — Lt. Maher backs up his brother, Sergeant James Maher, on a traffic stop for allegedly and “technically” running a red light. The driver is apparently a college student who is studying to become a pilot, which was also the scenario with at least one other recent stop in the city aired on On Patrol: Live. Sgt. Maher: “A citation with hurt him pretty seriously. He’s seems pretty upset…” Lt. Maher: “…you got be really careful with your driving out here, man. You got a long life ahead of you…”
  • Baton Rouge, La. — Corporals Andrew Carlton and Wendy George initiate a traffic stop. No license.

On Patrol: Live Hour 2

  • Triple Play #2 — An Indian River County, Fla., Sheriff’s Office SWAT deployment (Note: On Patrol: Live made the video unembeddable).
  • Lee County, Fla. — Deputy Knapp makes a traffic stop on a slow-rolling pickup truck that allegedly didn’t maintain the lane. The deputy allegedly smells alcohol: “I understand you’re on your way home…it’s not a big deal to drink and drive. It’s a big deal to be intoxicated and drive, okay?” The driver says he consumed “two drinks.” The driver is subsequently arrested for alleged DUI after field sobriety testing. Abrams: “He says he’s gonna take a breath test. We’ll see.”

Listen below to Deputy Knapp’s incident recap after which he adds that “we’re gonna take him down to the Marceno Motel, where he said he’s gonna provide a breath sample, and we will go from there.” Studio comments follow:

  • Richland County, S.C. — K9 Specialist Datron Washington pursues a car that allegedly fled from a traffic stop. Abrams claims that the car was driving on the wrong side of the road. Specialist Washington initiates a PIT maneuver. The car flips over. As other cops arrive to provide backup, the driver is detained. On Patrol: Live caption: “Suspect in custody.” OPL replays the PIT several times. Car search.

Specialist Washington: “Alright homie, you’re under arrest, just so you know.”

Listen below to the On Patrol: Live studio panel discuss the “textbook PIT maneuver”:

Listen below to Specialist Washington’s brief recap (“…he advised me he was scared, and scared is gonna get him put in jail):”

Abrams: “And his insurance rates are gonna be going up, I guess.”

  • Richland County, S.C. (pre-recorded segment) — Deputy Toddson Catoe and other units responds to a family dispute allegedly where shots were fired. One arrest made. Investigation ongoing.

Listen below to Deputy Catoe’s recap:

  • Christian County, Mo. — On Patrol: Live caption: “Report of prowler.” Deputy Guinn makes contact with the homeowner/reporting party on scene who says someone was banging on the side of the house.
  • Knox County, Tenn. — Officer Joseph Cordero responds on an accident call where someone may have fled the scene. With the help of some possible witnesses, he makes contact with a female motorist eating pizza whose car has front-end damage. Officer Cordero: “What happened before the pizza?” Driver: “Nothing.” Officer Cordero: “…it looks like something happened.” The driver is arrested for alleged DUI after field sobriety testing.

Abrams: “Remember, part of these field sobriety tests is how well you follow directions as well.”

Abrams irreverently quips that “wonder why Officer Cordero would have thought that that car was involved in any sort of incident? Looks fine….”

Officer Carmen Fairbanks incident recap: “So, I guess they were getting some food from around a corner. They were having like a mom’s night out, basically. They said they heard something. It sounded like scraping. And they came outside. They saw her car coming through the parking lot. And she’s dragging her front bumper. She kind of pulled off into this little gravel area behind me. And then she either had her car in neutral or park, but they said that she’s trying to take off. And so you could just hear the revving of the engine. And then she finally pulled back around here. And they went inside, bought her a pizza. And then brought it out to her and just kind of hung out with her to make sure that we got here.”

Abrams: “The good Samaritan pizza ruse, right? Getting her to stick around for a slice.” Rizzo: “I know I’d fall for that.”

  • Clayton County, Ga. — Deputy Shamari Davis makes a traffic stop for a tinted license plate cover. The driver seems to say that he’s never been stopped for that reason before. Deputy Davis: “That doesn’t mean that it’s not illegal, okay?” Abrams: “Guy said he bought a lottery ticket. Might have better luck. Could end up being a good night in the end. Never know, but the odds are not with him on a lottery, though.”

On Patrol: Live Hour 3

  • Triple Play #3 — An Alliance, Ohio, police pursuit of a bicyclist. In reference to the subject initially seeming to claim that he ran because he was exercising, Tom Rizzo satirically wonders “how many calories you burn running from the police…” Abrams: “…get the adrenaline going, et cetera. It is known to be an excellent workout. It prepares you to go to jail…”
  • Daytona Beach, Fla. — Lt. Maher searches the area on a report about someone possibly breaking into cars at a shopping plaza. Lt. Maher: “…at this point, it could be a potential loitering and prowling.”
  • Wheeling, W.Va. — Corporal Zach Stoneking provides backup on a traffic stop. The driver is detained.
  • Missing segment — Panorama City, Calif.
  • Richland County, S.C. — Corporal Tim Riley makes a traffic stop for no headlights on. The car has traveled 252,000 kilometers [about 157,000 miles] per the odometer. Abrams: “Still a lot of miles on that car. I hope it’s not a lease. It’s a 2018, so the lease would already be done…” It turns out that the motorist’s license is suspended. Cpl. Riley patiently explains to the argumentative driver how to get his license reinstated by the DMV. Abrams: “So this was a pretty simple request that got a little complicated here. And we’re hearing there about a guy who just needs to go to the DMV.”
  • Wheeling, W.Va. (pre-recorded segment) — Officer Zachary Herron with Cpl. Stoneking makes contact some young adults in a car for something allegedly hanging from the rear-view mirror. Abrams introduces the segment by asserting that “what began as a traffic stop took a very ‘twisted’ turn, actually dozens of them.” Alcohol allegedly found in the vehicle, including for Twisted Tea cases. “You guys gonna slam all that tonight?” An open container is poured out. The occupants are released with a warning. When one of the occupants learns the filming is for On Patrol: Live, he asks, “it’s gonna be on Peacock, right?”

Listen below to Officer Herron’s recap followed by some studio repartee about Twisted Tea and other topics:

  • Baton Rouge, La. (pre-recorded segment) — Abrams: “…as many of you know, buying a used car can be stressful. As we learning recently…selling a used car can come with its own set of problems.” Corporal Carlton responds to a disturbance involving alleged threatening of employees.

Listen below to Cpl Carlton’s incident recap:

  • Knox County, Tenn. — Officer Cordero and another unit responds to an alleged domestic incident inside an apartment. A male on scene is detained.
  • Baton Rouge, La. — Cpl. Carlton responds to a “public assistance” call involving a possible overdose. The fire department and paramedics are already on scene outside a motel. The subject is placed on a stretcher presumably for transport to a hospital.
