@Copwatchtv obtained body camera footage of a bizarre way for a friend to try to get their friend out of a DWI arrest. A man was stopped by Eddy County Sheriff Deputies for drunk driving. He had a few of his friends in the car. A New Mexico State Police officer came to back up the deputy when one of the passengers claimed to be a Texas State Trooper.
The New Mexico State Police officer did not buy the man’s story and started to investigate the claims.

If you're ever thinking about
impersonating a police officer.
Don't Dewitte.
8:08 the state trooper seems drunk too.
Can't watch. Too much noise.
These cops are way too nice to him for impersonating a cop!
Thats a real friend, didnt wanted his friend to go to jail alone 😂😂😂😂
WTF was he thinking by saying he's a cop
He's with Metro state
He should not get in trouble for identifying as a cop because these days you can identify as whoever you want..
CRINGING
Before body cameras, you might be able to back away from a lie, "no, I said I applied to DPS 2 months ago, I want a job with them" or something similar and a judge would give you the benefit of the doubt. Now, with the cameras, your lies are on the record.
Like why bro? Your friend got pulled over drunk driving and you were good to go but no you want catch a felony
I am more concerned about the Chief that turned out at the scene, he seemed to be a bit unstable on his legs and a silly smile on his face , maybe they should have checked him for DUI.
All he hadda do was sit in the car and shut up dude got hiself arrested for no reason😂
2:36 it was at this point he knew he had messed up!
He's an illegal
8:09 anyone see this?
Why is the video sped up?
I'm a police officer and I don't disclose that information if I get pulled over lol
How do cops not have the Miranda rights memorized?? It’s so funny how they all have to bust out that card to read.
Why is fool passenger even talking to a cop. Keep it zipped.
Aw, cut the bro a break
Well that was dumb.
Rest assured if he had told truth the second time he still would have gotten arrested. Don’t talk to cops.
