When the officer approached the vehicle, he immediately smelled marijuana, later finding out that the driver was Atlanta City Councilman Antonio Lewis. Law&Crime’s Sierra Gillespie breaks down the bizarre bodycam footage and what happens next for the city official.

Arrested for having harmless plant matter.
waste of taxpayer dollars
nobody cares
Cop said he'll write a ticket and let him go… he left out a huge "detained" part. Smdh… hassled TF outta him
That’s crazy
Shame on the ppl that voted this dirtbag into office
Ayooo CHILL OUT OFFICER 😂 MY MAN IS TRYING TO GET HIGH💚
There is no need for the distracting, interrupting commentary.
Welcome to my home of Atlanta. City council been corrupt, just something we been used to i guess
He was gonna smoke it with his side piece
This was a case of theft by police.
still illegal in Georgia? wow, just legalize it natiowide..
These are the legislators in charge of US cities. Great.
Lol just seen him on the news for something else but he wasn't in trouble
Omg I like these videos but that commentary lady talks way too much. All she does is tells us exactly what we are about to see as if we can’t just see it for ourselves. She stops every other second to say the exact same thing the person says in the video. It’s so annoying.
Cop sounds like Roy Jones Jr 😂😂😂
God's 🌳 illegal 😂 who are we to determine that 😂🤣
This is a setup 👌
Well played councilman!!!
Imagine our country if we never brought them here
Great police work
Dude seems way under qualified to be a councilman
“This guys is nuts.”
Yeah man that’s the craziest drug addict behavior. It was like he was on PCP. Man our boys in blue sure are level headed and logical individuals.
Keep up with your tags people!
that aint no 4g lol that's not even 1
The Councilman was just trying just keep it Real. If i was the officer had noticed the driver was keeping it real, id made a deal.
Anytime your in a situation be sure to keep it Real, You will get the best deal.
2024 and still worried about marijuana. lol only in America
He talk too much. This shouldn’t even be video worthy.
that’s not 4 grams
cmon now. when are we going to grow up and start focusing on ACTUAL issues?
This is ridiculously sad. I don’t even smoke, but putting someone through all this nonsense for a joint is a shinning example of the “crime” being fought these days.
There's missing ppl u should have been looking for wow
Wow he got a joint
That why a lot of people hate cops…All this power tripping over a small blunt
I’m sure this cop smokes weed himself
feds be trash
why can’t he smoke? he needs sp
weed being a councilman is a tough job he needs to be level headed ❤
So cops a liar huh?🤡
🤔😒🥱🥱🥱
Weak sauce, he didn't even have to do anything, just let the man go…..😢
Weed? This is CRAZY
All this for a blunt smh
A BLUNT?!?! OMG THE HUMANITY!! HE'S THE MOST HORRIBLE PERSON IN THE WORLD!! 🙄😒
/s
why are we still making any type of deal over a plant? this country sucks
im just happy a Politician was only caught with Weed and not the Typical Coke and Pills …we're Progressing
Stepping out on the wife busted 😂😂😂
That’s Georgia for you smh gassing up a small amount of weed calling a skimpy blunt “4 grams” like we don’t know wtf that looks like
He probably needed that blunt 😂
Who wants one of their city councilmen breaking the law and driving around high?
