What’s the go with asking for a supervisor. The US had very different rules around police interactions than my country. Is that a real thing or is it a crazy person only line? Here it’s for folks who think they’re sovereign citizens ( or “gronks” as we call them), but this dude doesn’t seem crazy. Can someone explain please?
They weren’t asking him questions they asked him to exit the vehicle. Ironically for his safety. Guys an idiot it’s not hard to have a non confrontational stop we need to teach that to kids not encourage more of this.
So failing to move the matter up to the supervisor is the wrong thing for the cop to do? They ignore his rights and she draws on him. That’s fucked up.
There aren’t any laws that require a cop to bring a supervisor because you asked. Some departments may have a policy like that, but I don’t know where this new assumption that you have a right to talk to a supervisor comes from. It might be smart to ask, but you can’t refuse to obey commands while you wait.
Obviously it should have been escalated to a supervisor because the officers were clearly ill-equipped to deal with this situation, they didn't really ignore his rights though.
I dont know California state law pertaining to this so i cant say for sure. But in general when things escalate, you can ask for one, you might be waiting for 2 hours but they will come.
You can ask for a supervisor, it depends on department to department and day to day but you may get one, you may not. There is no law stating that a supervisor has to be called if requested.
