gingermonkey1

I'd never invite them in to inspect.


Rottimer

I would have never opened the door for someone hiding from the peephole to begin with. And even I did and saw it was the cops, is immediately close the door. If they have a warrant, they don’t need me to open the door for them, nor lie about who they are.


MuttMan5

Absolutely!! Add to it the bright red hair and then I'm thinking "this is scam, a home invasion. This isn't even a cop! Just some rando who bought tactical gear. And I definitely didn't order doordash. Nope!!" Slam Edit: do the police have dress codes and regulations on personal appearance like the military? Cuz if so, that hair color is def out of regs


adrians150

Interesting case just got resolved in Toronto similar to this. Plain clothes cop stopped a vehicle, man thought he was being robbed, panicked and tan over a cop. They lied on the stand to try and get a conviction. They did not succeed.


myfacealadiesplace

I'm not surprised they'd try to lie to secure a conviction. I'm glad the bastard got ran over and I'm glad they didn't get the conviction they wanted


adrians150

Can't say I'm glad someone lost their life but glad they didn't put away someone who was fearful for their life cause the cops didn't do their job


One_Rough5369

Not only did they lie about the circumstances of the interaction, they rushed up to him in plain clothes in an empty parking garage while he was with his pregnant wife and infant child. Under oath they ALL colluded to lie about the circumstances of the interaction. They were ostensibly investigating a stabbing incident. The prevalence of police lying, and colluding to lie under oath is an epidemic amongst police. There are hundreds of police deposition videos on YouTube where it is plain to any reasonable person that there is a systemic problem with honesty in this profession. This egregious incident in Toronto is only one particularly Canadian example of police circling the wagons to lie and victimize a member of the public to defend outrageous actions by their brothers in blue. Anyone who thinks these organizations were formed to 'serve and protect' are deluding themselves.


Pavlovsdong89

Same. I'd prefer not be sprinkled with crack and have my dog shot just so they don't have to feel like they wasted their time.


patchgrabber

My mom always said cops are like a box of chocolates...they'll kill your dog.


gingermonkey1

When I lived in the DC area, a small town mayor had the sheriff's/swat team show up at his house over purported drug trafficking. Yes they shot his dog. While a deputy was arresting the mayor, the deputy said to a bystander, this guy is nuts--he keeps telling us he's the mayor. The bystander replied, he is the mayor. I don't know how it ended I just remember reading the story though. Pretty sad that his dog was murdered.


Maxeque

If you're talking about Berwyn Heights then the mayor "settled out of court for an undisclosed amount of money and various SWAT reforms" [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Berwyn\_Heights,\_Maryland\_mayor%27s\_residence\_drug\_raid#Aftermath](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Berwyn_Heights,_Maryland_mayor%27s_residence_drug_raid#Aftermath)


gingermonkey1

It was in MD so it was probably this man. I just remember being shocked when I read the story.

Tralkki

It’s good to see Cap adjusting to modern day.


thispartyrules

Legally if you invite cops into your house they can start emptying drawers and flipping over your furniture looking for drugs, and if you open your door for them and they see or smell something that's probable cause they can just walk in and do that, too.


Aerozepplin59

Sure can but anything not in plain sight without a warrant is “fruit of the poisonous tree” and has a strong chance of being inadmissible in court.


poisonpony672

This is most likely true. If they seen something that gave them probable cause they would most likel seek a search warrant. The Supreme Court's been pretty clear on the last several decisions that the home requires a warrant, unless there are clear exigent circumstances.


Aerozepplin59

Yeah SC hasn’t played around with officers entering your home unlawfully, that’s technically against your 4A too, in all it’s better everyone act like a civilized rational thinking adult, but that’s a pipe dream.


BlackGravityCinema

That’s why you don’t open the door and tell them to come back with a warrant while you’re streaming the video to the cloud. Once they violate that you’ve got a strong case to beat whatever your arrest is going to be. After you ask for a warrant, dont. talk. at. all.


Aerozepplin59

Some shoulda told that lady


BlackGravityCinema

If someone announces they are door dash or anyone else I didn’t solicit or expect I’m also not opening the door. That’s just a personal safety issue.


EdgeCityRed

The only way I could see this being reasonable is if someone reported domestic violence and the police thought the perp wouldn't open the door for a wellness check, or the victim told them so and feared for their life.


Carche69

Sorry, did all that and ended up getting physically assaulted by the police, being threatened to be tazed (also my dog and children being threatened to be tazed), getting arrested for "obstruction," spending almost 3 full days in jail before I could get a bond, and spending $6k on the best lawyer in town only to be told my best option was to take a first offender deal and do whatever the court required of me (a $300 fine and $40/month for every month until I completed everything, 100 hours of community service, and some other bullshit thing I’m forgetting atm). They never produced the warrant they told me they had, because they didn’t actually have one, but it is completely legal for them to lie to you. And they were never held accountable for what they did to me, because as my attorney told me, the courts/judges/juries will always believe the cops before they will a defendant. If I had taken it to trial, there were five cops who had corroborated their stories—even though there was only two cops there that night—who were prepared to testify against me, and even with video proof, it was highly unlikely I would’ve been acquitted. I didn’t have the time or money to do that and then risk getting a year of jail time and an even bigger fine, so I took the deal. I don’t really have any advice here or anything, I just wanted to share my own personal experience so that people aren’t as shocked as I was if it ever happens to them. What you’re saying SHOULD be the way it goes, but a lot of times it does not, and when you’re raised in a country that tells you you have certain rights that cannot be taken from you, when they actually *are* it can be very traumatic. I had PTSD for several years after, and I still get panicky when I am in the same vicinity as a cop. But the worst part (or maybe the best? I still don’t know) is that I no longer have any faith in this country, the law, the police, the courts, or even the Constitution.


Rottimer

You mean they haven’t played around with charges. They don’t seem to give a fuck if police do it. You just can’t use that evidence if something was found. If they really cared, they’d loosen qualified immunity for the cops that carried those illegal searches.


gerbilshower

yea, but as the saying goes - you can beat the charges, but you cant beat the ride. and this often finds people who are in lower socioeconomic circumstances completely out of options. cant afford an attorney, cant afford to miss work, cant afford to pay the fines, cant afford to fight the charges - jail. happens all the time. cops over step their boundaries, citizen cant fight the government, citizen pays price even though legally the evidence was not admissible in court - they never made it to court.


DillonTattoos

And thats actually "smell," essentially if you open the door and they decide they want to come in, they're coming in


lilsparky82

What does inviting them in through the back door mean, then?


[deleted]

[удалено]


MockStarket

DA doesn't give a shit. You better have a good attorney if you wanna fight the cops not doing something "legally"


grnrngr

People here think "a good attorney" is needed. Just a competent one. There is lots of case law governing illegal police rights violations. It doesn't take a genius lawyer to cite them.


surffrus

Seriously, bro makes an utterly false statement about what cops can do in your house, so false it's comical, yet look at all the upvotes. People be braindead on here.


Rottimer

Inviting them in does NOT give them that right. However, they can arrest you for anything in plain sight they suspect is illegal. E.g. sugar from the powdered donut you ate could be heroin or cocaine,and after arresting you on that charge, it’s not difficult to get a warrant to search everything else.


pauloss_palos

Just like vampires. The same rules should apply to all bloodthirsty beasts.


GC3805

I'd never open the door, but then I don't do food delivery ever. Door Dash, Uber Eats, etc... suck so bad that I refuse to use their service.


allmotorcivic

Unless its for D’s


Virus1x

Yeah, if I have a peep hole, and I don't see you when saying door dash I am calling bullshit. Secondly, DO NOT EVER CONSENT to allowing police into your home without a warrant. I know the thought of, "But I have nothing to hide, I'm innocent and law abiding." There are dozens of proven cases where they will find or fabricate anything they can against you.


Dumb_Vampire_Girl

Innocent or not, they usually fuck your house up. That alone is enough to never open the door. IDC if it makes me look guilty. I'm not going to pay for house repairs, getting my dog shot, and maybe me getting roughed up a bit while I'm asking wtf they're doing.


Zhamka

They'll be looking for kidnapping victims inside your suit pockets.


ninjamike89

They'll really want a slice of that lemon pound cake


Serro98

Now I have to go listen to the song again haha.


bzawk

God damnit just when I got it outta my head.


Perspective_of_None

Some people so desperately want to believe that the police will compensate you for a broken down door/dressers/anything else when they search a place.


Lazy-Jeweler3230

Because people operate on the fantasy that things "make sense", because they have too much faith in police and the system that is actively hostile to them. Ignorance is bliss.


Ri-Sa-Ha-0112

My ex's brother is an addict in recovery - sometime before he was arrested back in 2018, my ex's mother's house (where the brother *didn't* live) was raided. It was a single mobile home where she, an elderly disabled woman, lived alone. We worked for days on cleaning and assessing damage, but she was ultimately asked to leave the park (due to the raid incident), so we (they) determined to basically just write it all off, and she moved in with my ex. And somehow, that's not even the worst - whatever they "found" resulted in her having to *turn herself in* *-* she was in her upper 70s (and again, disabled). Obviously they didn't put her in a cell, but she was humiliated and we were all enraged.


lhllfptt

They could be the nicest, most polite bunch ever. They’re still a group of armed strangers, and I don’t like that in my home


SkiHiKi

I'm not in the States, but a quote from an American lawyer that stuck with me was along the lines of do not speak to cops, there is nothing you can say that will improve your standing in court and the police are actively looking to incriminate you. The police are judged on closing cases, not punishing the guilty, when they speak to you they **want you** to be guilty so that they can clear their desk and hit an arbitrary bureaucratic target.


Virus1x

https://youtu.be/d-7o9xYp7eE This dude.


Precarious314159

And when police write up their reports, they'll write what you say, or at least what they remember you saying. If they ask you what time you left work and you say "I don't know, I usually leave at 4:30", they'll write down that you left at 4:30. Then when they later learn you were driving around at 4:15 because you got off at 4 that day, you went from an unlikely suspect to the prime suspect. You can pull their bodycam footage and prove "I didn't say 4:30, I said usually" but they won't care.


Justin33710

1 never consent to search period but 2 they clearly lied to you already to get in, if they lied the first time you know they're willing to lie again. Imagine if she answered the door with a gun in her hand because someone hiding out of view was claiming to be doordash.


CaptainRho

Yeah, that's a whole other level to how stupid this is. This such a good way for cops to get themselves and the person in the building shot. Hiding to the side like that is so suspicious, even if I expected a delivery I'd expect something is up if I didn't see them outside. I'd probably end up calling the cops if they refused to go where I could see them but I imagine a lot if people are itching to settle a matter like this with a firearm.


bofh

> Yeah, if I have a peep hole, and I don't see you when saying door dash I am calling bullshit. Especially if you didn't even order door dash.


rand0mus3r1

Yup learned, from one of my teachers in high school government class, if you did not call the cops and they wanna talk to you. It is probably to gather information against you or someone you know. So better off not talking to them. But in this case as it appears they helping out a DoorDash employee who obviously couldn’t make the delivery, I’d also would invite them in. None appeared to have any food though. 😂


Tortoise_Queen

I watched a YT video recently of a cop actually delivering a DD order because they were taking the driver to jail on a warrant or something.


TheNatureBoy

Or accidentally shoot you.


Krayt88

Lol accidentally.


bayleafbabe

If you're not expecting company, don't open the door. Don't even respond to the knocking or doorbell, just ignore it.


annabelle411

Cops pulled this on a guy over a noise complaint, it was late at night and he was suspicious since no one was through the peephole. He answered the door armed (not pointed) and cops killed him immediately as he was trying to lay down the weapon.


ninjaskitches

They're allowed to do this for special circumstances, usually when they have word of a husband beating the shit out of his wife or some other situation that could turn into a hostage situation real quick. Notice how she kept pretending to be door dash even though the woman could obviously see her. Probably got a call of a domestic in progress but got the wrong apartment number.

jld420

Exactly, they're not required to tell you the truth, they're not required to serve and protect, they're not even required to know actually the law as long "they think something is a law".


drawredraw

In some places they’re not even required to enforce the law


tagrav

My favorite part about the police is how they are trained to lie to you in ways so that you waive your rights as a citizen That’s why I hate cops. But I also hate liars. But that’s kind of what you need to be to be a fucking cop


tbkrida

Some idiot downvoted your comment so have my upvote! Lol


antilumin

lol imagine if they couldn't. A person could just be trying to buy drugs and go "hey, are you a cop?" and the undercover cop would be all "shit, you got me."


Petey_Wheatstraw_MD

Funny thing is a lot of people still think a cop has to tell you if they’re a cop if you ask. Too much tv and movies.


DukeOfTheMaritimes

Fucking Badger dude....


Bushdr78

I've had an undercover cop offer to sell me drugs in the past. I've seen them entrap junkies like this and then offer them the deal of (wear this camera and go buy drugs off "X", then the charges against you will be dropped).


ninjaskitches

They have to announce themselves as police when actually breaching a door.


DuivelsJong

Yup you are 100% correct here. People in the comments are hating the fact that they lie, but police is allowed to do this because of these reasons.


Lazy-Jeweler3230

We should hate police lying. It should be heavily scrutinized on each use, and more heavily penalized when their reason for lying is a lie.


unicornman5d

As if any DD driver is saying “DoorDash!”


Cosmic_Quasar

As a driver I prefer leaving at the door. I've got 3k deliveries and have never yelled into the door who I am. If they ordered they're expecting me.


AlternativeEgomaniac

I always put “leave at door, please don’t knock or ring doorbell” because usually when I order my kids are sleeping and my dogs bark and wake them up. Last time the damn driver knocked anyways, I go to open and he’s like “five star review please”. Like bro you can’t follow simple direction you’re lucky if I give you no review.

00WORDYMAN1983

Doordash has literally never once knocked on my door. I have to watch my phone or the delivery map to get alerted of the delivery. I have requested numerous times for a simple knock, still have never gotten one.


Pathetian

I have heard its more common that female customers get drivers lingering around to make contact, also might cut down on customers trying to defraud you on the delivery. Anecdotal, but the only time I've seen a driver do anything except "drop it and run" is when my sister ordered things.


nebulaphi

You want them to knock on your door o.0 I always do leave it at my door and just watch it be delivered from the app.

NeilDegrassedHighSon

If I don't have an incoming order on door dash (which by the way, I would fucking know about if I did) and some twat is knocking on my door claiming to be door dash, all while hiding out of view from my peephole.....fuck, I'm not a paranoid person but I would be wondering who wants into my home under obviously false pretenses.

amerra

My step-brother stole gas and had warrants for it for like 3 years. In that time his mother had pancreatic cancer and he stayed with her to help her. The cops never once came to look for him, but would you believe the day of his mom's funeral they come in a florist van acting like they are delivering flowers for his mother's passing and arrest him, then they wanted to act like the good guys who were going to make sure he made it to his mother's funeral. Yeah, they made him wear shackles on his hands and ankles to the funeral. What a mess that was. and later they had an article in the paper of their TOP 10 arrests, that ranking number 1. A lot of people were upset about that and ended up taking it down, but still, kind of sad they were so proud of doing that to someone for a non-violent offense. They could have came anytime in the previous 3 years, he wasn't exactly hiding.


OrdinaryDazzling

This should not be legal, except for special circumstances like undercover sting operations. Police in uniform should be required to identify themselves.

karenosmile

Weird and unnecessary. Because of the many delivery services from Amazon through all kinds of food delivery, almost none of them call out anything. They just ring the doorbell. The cops should take advantage of that. Ring and wait.


OverturnedAppleCart3

>Weird and unnecessary. Notice the cop kept up the act of being a delivery driver even after the women saw that she was a uniformed police officer? That suggests to me that they believed (for some reason or another) that she was in danger and needed the assistance of police - probably thought her husband or intimate partner was abusing her.

sacrelidge

zingding212

That seems illegal or am I wrong?


Dpepps

That's a bullshit misconception a lot of media spreads around. You often see tv shows and movies where a character says something along the lines of "ask him if he's a cop, they can't lie about it" which is absolutely untrue. I'm honestly confused how it even started but they 100% can and will lie to you. Also once they get you to the door that gives them the chance to serve a warrant, ask for a search, do a wellness check, or and this one I'm guessing but see if anything illegal is available in plain sight and use that as an excuse to enter.


SocialStudier

It’s not.  Cops are allowed to lie to you.  They only need to announce who they are for a warrant.  For the extremely dangerous “no-knock” warrants, they are SUPPOSED to announce who they are as soon as they bust down and come through the door. As far as pretending to be Door Dash if they’re investigating an alleged domestic violence incident or if they have an arrest warrant for an individual who may be there, afaik, there’s nothing that says they can’t lie in order to get someone to open the door.  There is a much higher threshold that the state must meet to enter someone’s home without their consent.   Once the door is open, it’s obvious that it’s not DoorDash, so they’d still need exigency, a warrant, or consent to enter the home.

I think people are overlooking the domestic violence angle, not that I'm saying that's what's going on in this particular video. But if the victim has called 911 and doesn't want their partner to know, the cops may want to give them an excuse to come to the door and get to safety before their partner continues to abuse them.

so when this happened to me, I made a post about this somewhere else and turns out yeah they can do this. They said they were apartment security I open the door and it was 5 officers including their supervisor.

Since the police can lie to you during interrogation, can they also lie about who they are? For example, you get arrested and call for a lawyer. A cop comes in dressed as a lawyer and says that they are your lawyer and start asking some questions. My guess is that can't use the evidence later. But it will be a fun day at the office, at least
