A STATE LAWMAKER IN NEW MEXICO GOT ARRESTED FOR DRINKING
OR DRIVING UNDER THE INFLUENCE AND APPARENTLY, HER PLEAS TO THE
COPS AS SHE WAS GETTING INVESTIGATED FOR BEING UNDER THE
INFLUENCE HAD A LOT TO DO WITH HOW SHE HAS FOUGHT TO
PROTECT THE RIGHTS OF POLICE.
TAKE A LOOK.
I LITERALLY FIGHT FOR YOU GUYS EVERY TIME I GET A CHANCE.
WELL, THAT DOESN'T MAKE IT OKAY TO DRINK AND DRIVE.
I'M NOT DRINKING AND DRIVING.
I FIGHT FOR YOU GUYS EVERY TIME I GET THE CHANCE.
SO MANY PEOPLE TELL ME THAT YOU GUYS TREAT PEOPLE LIKE SHIT
AND I DIDN'T BELIEVE IT.
I AM NOT TREATING YOU POORLY AT ALL.
YOU GUYS TREAT PEOPLE OF COLOR LIKE SHIT AND I
ALWAYS STAND UP FOR YOU GUYS.
I STICK UP FOR YOU GUYS.
I'M THE ONE THAT DEPENDS YOU GUYS WHEN PEOPLE SAY THAT YOU'RE
ASSHOLES, THAT YOU TREAT PEOPLE OF COLOR LIKE SHIT, I DEFEND YOU
ALL DIE SAY THERE'S NO WAY YOU GUYS HAVE A REASON FOR TREATING
PEOPLE THE WAY THEY SAY.
LIKE I'M THE ONE THAT DOES THAT.
SO AS SHE IS GETTING ARRESTED FOR DRIVING UNDER THE
INFLUENCE, SHE IS TELLING THESE COPS HEY, I HAVE BEEN
DEFENDING YOU WHEN PEOPLE SAY ALL THESE NEGATIVE THINGS
ABOUT YOU, YOU SHOULD LET ME GO.
SO WHO IS THIS LAWMAKER?
IT IS MONICA YOUNGBLOOD, STATE REPRESENTATIVE AND NEW MEXICO.
THIS OCCURRED IN ALBUQUERQUE.
APPARENTLY SHE WAS DRIVING AND HAPPEN TO GO THROUGH A
POLICE CHECKPOINT.
SHE DID SEVERAL FIELD SOBRIETY TESTS AND FAILED THEM.
SHE REFUSED TO DO A BREATHALYZER TEST AND SHE WAS PROMPTLY
ARRESTED AS A RESULT OF DRIVING UNDER THE INFLUENCE BUT
SINCE SHE IS A PERSON IN A POSITION OF POWER, SHE DID
NOT SPEND THE NIGHT BEHIND BARS WHICH MOST
PEOPLE DO IF THEY ARE CAUGHT DRINKING AND DRIVING.
SHE WAS THERE FOR ABOUT 30
MINUTES AND WAS ABLE TO LEAVE AFTER THAT.
THAT IS A VIDEO WAS AMAZING.
THERE WAS A WOMAN SAYING I LET YOU GUYS BE RACIST AND YOU
ARE STILL GOING TO ARREST ME?
SHE SAYS PEOPLE CRITICIZE YOU FOR BEING AGAINST PEOPLE OF
COLOR, BUT I DEFEND YOU.
I LET YOU BE RACIST AND YOU ARE STILL GOING TO ARREST ME?
WHAT, I WANT TO GIVE CREDIT TO THE COPS HERE.
BODY CAMS IN THE VIDEO CAMERAS WORKED.
IF SHE HAD USED HER POWER LATER AND THEY DID NOT HAVE VIDEO
OF IT MAYBE SHE COULD OF LIED ABOUT WHAT THE COP SAID.
THAT IS RIGHT.
BUT BODY CAMS SHOWED COPS WERE RIGHT.
SHE WAS SAYING THAT STUFF.
AND THEY DID NOT PLAY FAVORITES AND THEY DID THE RIGHT
THING AND OF COURSE, SHE IS A REPUBLICAN.
SHOCKING I KNOW.
AND THEN HERE IS ANOTHER GREAT PART OF THE STORY.
SHE HAD INTRODUCED LEGISLATION THAT THINK GOD WAS UNSUCCESSFUL
ESPECIALLY FOR HERSELF, SHE IS PROBABLY THINKING DODGING
THE BULLET ON THAT ONE, THAT WOULD ARE PROHIBITED THE
RELEASED OF PEOPLE SUSPECTED OF AGGRAVATED DWI LIKE HERSELF
ON THEIR OWN RECOGNIZANCE.
LOCK THEM UP, RIGHT?
WHEN IT'S YOU, BUT I LET YOU BE RACIST.
BY THE WAY, WHY DID YOU REFUSES TO BRIDIE TEST IF YOU WERE
SOBER?
WHY ARE YOU CRYING IF THEY PULLED ME OVER FOR DRINKING
AND I HAVEN'T BEEN DRINKING, I WILL TAKE THE TEST.
WHY WOULD I BE CRYING?
ACTUALLY SHE DID ADDRESS THAT IN A STATEMENT THAT SHE
LATER GAVE TO THE PRESS.
LET'S GO TO GRAPHIC 60.
SO IT APPEARS THAT SHE IS DENYING THAT SHE WAS
DRIVING UNDER THE INFLUENCE AND SHE WISHES SHE TOOK THE
BREATHALYZER TO PROVE THAT SHE WAS NOT.
THAT IS NOT HOW IT WORKS.
YOU DON'T THE BREATHALYZER ONLY UNDER ONE CIRCUMSTANCE, IF
YOU ARE DRUNK AND REALLY, REALLY DRUNK.
IF YOU THINK YOU ARE EVEN ON THE BORDER, YOU WILL TAKE IT
JUST IN CASE YOU PASS BECAUSE THE COURT CONCLUDES IF YOU
DON'T TAKE THE BREATHALYZER THAT MEANS YOU WERE GUILTY AND
SHE IS A LEGISLATOR, SHE KNOWS THAT.
SHE HAS PROPOSED LEGISLATION ABOUT DRINKING AND DRIVING
AND I WILL GIVE HER CREDIT, SHE DOES TAKE IT SERIOUSLY.
SHE IS A SERIOUS DRUNK DRIVER.
I WANTED TO JUST COMMENT ON THE HYPOCRISY BECAUSE AS YOU
MENTIONED, SHE IS A MORE RIGHT-WING STATE LAWMAKER WHO
WANTS STRICTER PENALTIES FOR THOSE WHO ARE CONTRACTING AND
DRIVING AND I FEEL LIKE THIS STORY IS ILLUSTRATIVE OF
THE PEOPLE HE SAID ON THE RIGHT ON A REGULAR BASIS.
THEY WANT THESE DRACONIAN LAWS TO BE PASSED BECAUSE THEY
THINK OF EVERYONE AS THE OTHERS, THE CRIMINALS, THE PEOPLE
WHO SHOULD BE ON BEHIND BARS, WE WANT TO BE TOUGH ON CRIME
BUT THEY NEVER REFLECT ON THEIR OWN ACTIONS BECAUSE THEY
FEEL THEY ARE ABOVE THE LAW, UNTOUCHABLE.
OF COURSE I'M GOING TO DRINK AND GET BEHIND THE WHEEL.
BY THE WAY, DRINKING AND DRIVING IS ONE OF THE MOST, I TAKE
THAT SERIOUSLY.
I KNOW PEOPLE WHO HAVE EITHER LOST FAMILY MEMBERS AS A
RESULT OF DRUNK DRIVERS OR I KNOW A FRIEND WHO LOST HER
LIFE BECAUSE SOMEONE WAS DRINKING AND DRIVING,
CRASHED INTO HER CAR WAS SHE WAS ON HER WAY HOME.
PEOPLE LOSE THEIR LIVES BECAUSE OF DRUNK DRIVERS.
IT IS THE MOST NONSENSICAL THING EVER AND I LOVE THE FACT
THAT THERE ARE PEOPLE WHO ARE PUTTING ACTION BEHIND THEIR
WORDS AND THEY ARE FIGHTING TO CURVE DRUNK DRIVING BUT AT
THE SAME TIME, THE LAW ONLY APPLIES TO EVERYONE ELSE
WHEN IT COMES TO REPUBLICANS, EVEN WHEN IT COMES TO
THINGS LIKE SMOKING POT, FOR INSTANCE.
THINK ABOUT HOW THE BUSH ADMINISTRATION WAS WHEN IT
CAME TO THE ISSUE OF MARIJUANA.
VERY, VERY STRICT WHEN IT CAME TO MARIJUANA LEGISLATION
BUT WHEN IT CAME TO BUSH AND HIM SMOKING WHILE HE WAS IN
COLLEGE, THAT WAS OKAY.
AND LAST PIECE OF HER PUBLIC AND ONE-TO-ONE HERE, SHE
WANTS TO BE ABOVE THE LAW.
LOOK, I WANT TO PUNISH DRUNK DRIVERS BUT COPS, I AM ON
YOUR SIDE.
LET ME JUST NOT FOLLOW THE LAW.
THAT SOUNDS LIKE SOME OTHER REPUBLICAN I KNOW.
2ND OF ALL, DON'T TAKE THE BREATHALYZER SO LATER YOU
CAN SAY I DENY IT, I STRONGLY DENY IT.
NO, YOU DON'T TAKE THE BREATHALYZER, THAT MEANS
YOU ARE GUILTY.
SHE IS LIKE I AM LOOKING FORWARD TO A SWIFT AND JUST CONCLUSION.
I HAVE AN IDEA, HOW ABOUT YOU RESIGN IMMEDIATELY.
WHATEVER YOUR POINT OF VIEW IS ON PROSTITUTION, HE PROSECUTED
OTHER PEOPLE WHO FREQUENTED PROSTITUTION.
GREAT, BY THAT STANDARD, WHATEVER YOU THINK ABOUT
DRUNK DRIVING, SHE WANTED TO CRACKDOWN ON THE DRUNK DRIVERS.
GREAT, YOU GET TO ACTUALLY LIVE THOSE WORDS NOW.
CRACKDOWN ON YOURSELF.
IMMEDIATELY RESIGN IN SHAME AND THEN WE WILL SEE ABOUT
CRIMINAL CHARGES.
SHE MIGHT ACTUALLY RESIGNED BECAUSE SHE DIDN'T BREAK
ONE LAW THERE, SHE BROKE 2.
THE FACT THAT SHE MENTIONED HER POSITION IS A LEGAL.
A CRIME FOR PUBLIC OFFICIALS TO USE THEIR OFFICES TO OBTAIN
PERSONAL BENEFITS, SO SHE IS CURRENTLY BEING INVESTIGATED
BY STATE OFFICIALS AND WE WILL SEE HOW THAT CONCLUDES, BUT
SHE POTENTIALLY BROKE TWO LAWS THERE AND IT IS PRETTY SERIOUS.
IS SHOWS THE MINDSET AND THE THOUGHT PROCESS FOR MANY
POLITICIANS, THEY GET PAID BY CERTAIN PEOPLE AND THEY DO THEIR
BIDDING AND SO THE PEOPLE WHO DONATED THEIR THOUSANDS OF
DOLLARS THEM WILL BE LIKE A PAGE YOU MONEY, YOU DO WHAT I SAY.
GOTCHA.
NOW, SINCE SHE IS IN A POSITION OF BEING ARRESTED SHE IS
LIKE I AM DOING ALL THIS STUFF FOR POLICE OFFICERS, I DO
HELP YOU, ARE YOU GOING TO DO IT FOR ME?
ISN'T THAT HOW THE REAL WORLD WORKS?
IT DOESN'T WORK THAT WAY.
BUT CREDIT TO THE COPS BECAUSE SOMETIMES IT DOES WORK THAT
WAY AND CREDIT TO THE ATTORNEY GENERAL WHO IS ON
THIS CASE.
THE THING I HAVE LEFT TO STAY IS LOCK HER UP.
YOU DID THE DRUNK DRIVING, YOU THINK THEY WOULDN'T LOCK YOU UP?
YOU WOULD SPEND THE NIGHT IN JOE, THAT IS WHAT WOULD HAPPEN.
LITTLE AND WHAT ELSE WOULD HAPPEN.
