Moody yells athim “Ernie don’t you move…I’m gonna shoot you!” According to family and eyewitnesses,Duenez’ leg was caught in the seat belt and he moved to extricate himself when Moodyopened fire. Moody is heard telling Duenez to “drop the knife” though no knife is visible inthe video. A knife was found in the bed of the truck but eyewitnesses say it was there priorto the stop.

Police initially claimed the video showed a knife but then changed their minds. They THENclaimed the knife can’t be seen because Duenez ‘threw it so quickly’, though a forensicexpert hired by the family attorney concluded no knife is visible in the video.

The killing was ruled within policy by police chief Dave Bricker, so the family filed a federalcivil suit against the Manteca police department. The suit will be heard in the EasternDistrict Court in Sacramento by Judge Lawrence Karlton on March 25, 2014.

Ernest’s mother, Rosemary Duenez stated: “We feel that we’re not just fighting for our son,but for all the families who have lost loved ones.

EDUCATIONALIF THE POLICE COME TO YOUR DOOR

Knock Knock, Who’s There?The cops will want to talk to an owner of the house or apartment, so if your name is on thelease, that's you. If you're not an owner, go find [the] owner and tell him/her that the cops arehere.

Meet the cops outside on your porch or in the hallway of your apartment building. Also,bring one or two friends out there with you to witness everything. Your friends don't need tobe a part of your conversation with the cop, but they should be close enough to hear whateveryone is saying.

Do I have to let the the cops in?No. The cops can only come in if:

They have a search warrant or arrest warrant There is a real emergency going on (e.g., someone is screaming for help inside) You let them in

Most of the time, cops get into parties because hosts let them into parties. All the copshave to do is get you to consent to letting them in. So, they might say something like,"We're going to check around inside to make sure everything is OK in there. OK?" If youdon't want the cops to come in, then graciously say something like, "No thank you officer. Idon't consent to your entering my house/apartment."

Am I required to show ID?Technically, you aren't required to show ID unless you're being arrested, ticketed, or you'redriving. In fact, the ACLU recently sued the East Lansing police on behalf of a person whowas arrested merely for refusing to show a cop his ID. Always ask, "Am I required to showyou my ID?" Nevertheless, we advise that you do show your ID if you have it.

What do I say?You aren't required to say anything or answer the cops' questions. But, you should at leastspeak to the cops to find out why they have stopped by your party.

What will the cop say?The cops will ask questions to try to confirm that a crime is going on. So, they might asksomething like, "You're serving alcohol to minors in there, aren't you?" If you get a question

like this, do not lie to the cops, and don't try to give a long explanation. Instead, when thecops ask you this kind of question, just politely decline to answer. Speak in aconversational manner. Don't be confrontational. Don't be rude. Don't ever get physical witha cop.

What if the cop gives me a ticket?Accept the ticket, and don't make a fuss. There's nothing you can do about it now, so saveit for the judge.

What if they come in even if I dont give consent?The cops have no right to do this. But, if this happens, simply say, in a voice loud enoughfor witnesses to hear, something like, "With all due respect, officer, I don't consent to yourentering my house/apartment." But, do not become belligerent or physically confrontational.

WALL OF SHAME

Sgt. Daniel McLaughlin

McLaughlin is the star of a recent video in which he pulls the hair of a hysterical woman whohad arrived on the scene of her burning home. The woman can be seen in the video beingrestrained by her husband as McLaughlin violently pushes her shoulder. The woman reactsby swinging at the officer who then goes into full attack mode, grabbing her arm and thenher hair as he tries to pull her to the ground. Her husband holds on her and after a briefperiod is able to wrest her from his clutches. McLaughlin’s conduct is now underinvestigation.

This, of course, is not McLaughlin’s first time being in trouble. In 2009, a jury ruled thatMc Laughlin used excessive force on John Ross, a homeless advocate. Ross was passingout water to the homeless when Sgt. McLaughlin pulled up and threw a homeless managainst the wall. Ross’s attorney said when Ross approached the officer, McLaughlintwisted Ross’ arm. “Mr. Ross is about 73 years old; he picked him up and he threw him onthe ground,” said Miller. The claim also said McLaughlin continued yelling and begankicking Ross. Jurors eventually awarded the homeless advocate nearly $3,000 in medicalcosts.

“I am surprised that he’s still involved in patrolling certain areas of our community,” Millersaid.
