Mr. Chamberlain, this is Candace Wade of Lifeguard Medical Alerts.
This line is being recorded.
We just received an activation from your pendant.
Do you have an emergency?
If you need us to send an ambulance, I'll dispatch one now.
Mr. Chamberlain?
Hello?
Okay, because I'm not getting a response from you,
I'm going to dispatch emergency services now.
Employee number 1674, Candace Wade.
Jesus.
What's the apartment number?
87 to Dispatch, can we get the apartment number on that well-check?
Copy, 87. 135, South Lexington, Apartment 2B.
Subject's emotionally disturbed and medically fragile.
Emotionally disturbed? Can we get more info on that?
Negative. Medical alert company just reported...
Copy that.
Like a damn third world country over here.
2B, here we go. Who wants to talk?
I'll do it.
Okay, good,
Be assertive.
White Plains Police.
We're here for a welfare check.
Okay.
This is when they come.
Can we help you?
Hello?
White Plains Police.
I got nothing...
for them.
Welfare check.
Hello? White Plains Police.
Welfare check.
Hello. White Plains Police.
Hello?
What do you want?
We're here for a welfare check, sir.
I'm not on welfare.
Uh, our dispatch received a medical alert call, possible emergency.
We're here to help any way we can, sir.
I don't have no emergency.
What, are you here to steal my shoes again, are you?
I'm gonna go back to sleep.
Uh, hold on, sir. Hold on, uh...
Do you have anyone else in your unit with you?
Are you by yourself?
Ain't no one else here.
All right, well, we got a call
about a possible medical emergency,
And I'm telling you,
I do not have an emergency.
And I didn't call anybody.
So, unless you
planning on giving me back my shoes,
please leave me alone and just let me go to sleep.
Maybe get a confirmation on the address?
87 to Dispatch, could we have a confirmation on the address for this well check?
Copy 87.
Well check address, 1-3-5, South Lexington, Unit 2B.
Sir, I'm not sure what to tell you. We were sent to your address.
This is, uh, 135, South Lexington, Apartment 2B, correct?
Yes.
You don't have any medical alert system that went off?
Heart or blood pressure monitor? Something like that?
Hello?
Everything's fine.
You can all go home now.
Nothing to see here.
Hello?
No emergency.
It was an accident.
Thank you for your trouble.
We've got to check you out, my friend.
Make sure everything's okay.
No, no, I'm fine.
Uh, I don't need nobody checking me out.
It's 5:00 in the morning.
87 to Command, I'm on that well-check
at 135, South Lexington...
Subject is telling us there is no emergency,
that the medical alert was a mistake.
Please advise.
Just try to make visual contact, 87.
Okay, copy.
Let us check you out and we'll leave you alone, sir.
Be out of your hair in five minutes.
Uh... No, thank you.
You can leave now.
Can we, uh...
Can you get a name? How about your name? What's your name?
Why do you need to know my name?
So you can come in here and steal my shoes again like you did the last time?
The hell's he talking about with these "shoes"?
VZDP. Shoes could be polka dot unicorns.
We-we just need to put something on the report, sir.
Look, we didn't come here because you're in trouble.
We came here to help you any way we can.
The more you cooperate with us, the sooner we can get out of here.
Kenneth.
I'm sorry. One more time.
Kenneth.
Last name?
Chamberlain.
Thank you, Mr. Chamberlain.
Is there anyone else in the apartment with you?
No! I told you it's just me.
All right, well, ahem, can you, uh...
Can you open the door for us?
We need to check you out. It's for your own good.
I'm not gonna open my door.
Now, I-I don't need you.
It was a mistake.
I did not call you.
Hey, Mr. Chamberlain, are you getting in any trouble?
Are you doing anything illegal in your home?
What? No, I'm not doing anything illegal.
What do you asking me that for?
Because we're trying to understand.
No, It's 5:00 in the morning.
I'm 70 years old.
I got a bad heart
and I want to go to sleep.
That's fine.
Then you have nothing to worry about.
But you won't open the door for us, sir?
I think
it's time to go.
It's time to go.
Hello?
Mr. Chamberlain. Hello?
Hello?
Lifeguard, this is Candace. Do you have an emergency?
Police are at my door.
And the police are outside
for no reason.
Sir, for confirmation purposes, can you give me your name?
Kenneth Chamberlain.
All right, Mr. Chamberlain,
I see that you activated your pendant at 5:22 this morning.
Are you okay? Do you have an emergency?
No, I did not have an emergency!
I... I'm fine.
Okay, well, the reason the police are there is because whenever a patient
activates their alert system
and we can't get in touch with them,
we immediately dispatch emergency services to check on the person.
Yes, yes.
But I did not call them,
and I want them to go.
Okay, Mr. Chamberlain, I...
Yes, I'm sorry. Go ahead.
Somebody...
Somebody's been
breaking into my apartment
and stealing my stuff!
And the...
And the police, they won't...
Mr. Chamberlain, I have your service history pulled up here.
I see that you're on our psychiatric watchlist.
Have you been experiencing any increased symptoms,
anxiety, anything like that?
What I'm saying is that I'm sure the police are there to help.
It...
It was an accident.
I didn't activate nothing.
I don't need any help.
CANDACE Okay. So, you don't have an emergency?
No, I'm fine.
I want the police to leave.
What do you think?
Blue bell lab in the kitchen?
That's why he won't open the door?
Mr. Chamberlain,
are you there?
They're still knocking at my door.
Hello?
I'm telling you,
they're here 'cause they want to hurt me.
That's our standard procedure...
...if we're unable to reach you via the call box or by phone.
We always dispatch emergency services.
And that includes police officers.
I see you have your sister listed here as a reference.
Would you like us to call her?
Yes.
All right, I'm gonna call her,
and then reach back out to you on your call box.
Okay.
Mr. Chamberlain.
We need to make sure you're okay, sir.
He's not there.
What did he do, jump out the damn window?
Look, I'm telling you
the alarm was a mistake.
I'm not sick.
Do you have any serious medical conditions, sir?
What the he...
So, now you're asking me about my medical history?
I told you I have a bad heart.
We're just trying to help you out, sir.
I don't know how many different ways
I can tell you this, but I do not need your help!
- Mr. Chamberlain, we just... - Leave!
Leave!
Excuse me.
I'm Kenny's niece.
My mama said he's having a problem.
Can I help you?
Yeah, I'm Kenny's niece.
That's his apartment you're banging on.
Did he do something?
That's what we're trying to find out.
You know, he has a heart condition
and sometimes he...
Sometimes he doesn't think right.
You know, he imagines things.
Does he have any weapons in his apartment?
I don't know. I... I don't think so.
Anyone else in there with him?
I doubt it.
You could talk to my mama. She might be...
No, thank you, ma'am.
- You don't wanna talk to... - Thank you for the help.
We'll handle it from here.
Hello?
Kenny, it's Carol.
What's happening?
I got a call from your medical company.
They said the police are outside your door.
Yeah. Yeah.
Look, i-it was an accident.
I set off my alarm.
So you're fine?
No medical problems?
No, I'm all right.
Well, I called Tonyia. She'll speak to them.
No. No. No, Carol.
Why not?
You know how to police are around here.
Yeah. I don't want her getting hurt or nothing.
I just told her what's going on.
Let her decide what she wants to do.
Call me when they leave, okay?
All right.
Get his ID. Let's run it.
Maybe he's got a warrant out.
Mr. Chamberlain, we have an obligation
to make sure that you're safe
and anyone else in your apartment is all right.
What do you say we start with an ID, huh?
Can you show us some identification?
- Mr. Chamberlain... - I'm not opening my door.
You can hear that I'm okay.
Why do you need to come into my apartment?
- What does he think's gonna happen, man... - Shh!
When they're here,
when they stop trying to get me.
I think someone else is in there with him.
Mr. Chamberlain, why don't you pass on over your ID?
Just slip it underneath the door.
Push it through, and we'll pick it up.
Put 'em on lockdown.
Shit.
Put them on lockdown.
Where is it?
Here.
Solitary.
Huh. Fucker was in the Marines.
Oorah.
Here, run it.
87 to Dispatch, we have VA ID for the resident here.
Copy, 87.
Marine Corps ID
"Alpha-Roger-1-6-4-6-7-8-3-0."
Mr. Chamberlain, we spoke to your sister
and she's aware of what's happening.
Mr... Mr. Chamberlain, are you there?
Hi, sir, can you hear me?
Hello?
The... The police is still outside my door.
They got my ID now.
Mr. Chamberlain, do you want me to call and cancel the dispatch?
Yes.
ID confirmed. Victim's disturbed, but no priors.
Received treatment for substance abuse in 99',
and involuntary psych hold in 05'.
See if he's got a diagnosis.
Uh, this is 87.
Do we have, uh, diagnosis on the subject at South Lex?
Alert company said bipolar with psychotic features.
If he's emotionally disturbed, we shouldn't be banging on the door.
I mean, it's just gonna get him more upset.
What difference does that make?
If he's EDP,
We just need to wait him out, right?
What'd you do before this Rossi?
What do you mean?
Your job, what'd you do?
I was a middle school teacher, why?
No reason.
I gotta go.
Hmm...
Hello?
Daddy, what's going on? Aunt Carol called me.
Oh! hey, baby! Everything is fine.
Uh, what did Carol tell you exactly?
She told me your alert went off and the police have entered our apartment.
Are you okay?
I'm fine. It's a...
It's just that damn alert system.
Is that officer there?
Your work from a few years ago?
Get on the ground.
Don't think about it!
Daddy? Daddy, you there?
No, no, no. No, he's not.
Don't worry. It's okay.
Alright. Oh, Ava wants to say, hi.
Pa-pa! Pa-pa!
Oh, well... Hey, goochi!
Peekaboo! Grandpa here.
Uh!
Look, give doodlebug a big kiss for me.
But the police are outside and, uh,
I got to go talk to them.
I'll call you when they leave.
- Okay. Love you dad. - I love you too.
They gotta go, they gotta go.
Yes, sir, may I break ranks?
No, you may not, Marine...
One, two, three, it's ready.
We've done everything we can. He said he's fine.
Special circumstances. Couldn't we put that in the report?
It's a liability. We need to make visual contact.
Besides, there's something going on in there.
Listen, he's talking to someone.
Look, I know you're new to this.
But you've lived here, you know what goes on on the South side.
Yeah. I'm with Sarge.
You can practically smell it, coming through the walls.
Ross, if you want to risk it, feel free.
But think about what you're hearing in there.
If you leave here, and he's got some hooker
tied up in the closet, or he dies of a heart attack,
you could have a hurricane of shit raining down on you.
I'm just saying we shouldn't be banging on doors
and yelling and screaming at emotionally disturbed people.
Okay, so what do you suggest that we do, teach?
And leaving isn't an option.
I say we wait him out. We would be patient, you know?
- I mean, the manual says that... - Whoa! What! Whoa!
Don't throw the manual in my face, okay.
It's the real world.
Not you're fucking fifth grade classroom.
Let me give you a piece of advice.
If you ever speak that way around a Lieutenant,
they're gonna stick your ass in a desk before you can take your next breath.
I will talk to him.
Okay? We're not gonna hurt him.
Just gonna make sure he's not hurting anyone else.
Mr. Chamberlain, let me tell you exactly
what's gonna happen when you open this door.
We're gonna come in, we're gonna check you out.
We're gonna make sure
that you're not in a physical distress.
Gonna make sure that there's nothing strange going on. And then we're gonna leave.
If everything checks out, we'll be out of your hair in five minutes, tops.
Then you can go back to bed.
Mr. Chamberlain?
Open the door right now.
Open this fucking door.
Hello?
- Mr. Chamberlain? - Yes.
I reached out to the department.
I did my best to cancel the dispatch,
but they said they may need to make the entry, anyway. Are the officers still there?
Make... Entry...
Into my apartment?
- Yes, sir. But it's just to... - No.
To make sure...
They cannot come into my apartment.
Alright.
Piece of shit!
Mr. Chamberlain?
They're only there to make sure you're okay.
Sir, you sound like you're suffering from some paranoia.
Possibly other increased symptoms.
Have you been taking your medication routinely?
Yes.
I have been taking my medications.
Okay, sir.
Did something happen with the police in the past?
Is there a specific reason you don't want to open the door?
Can you talk to them?
Explain to them that the dispatch has been cancelled
a nd ask them politely to leave?
Excuse me.
Hey, wait, wait, wait. Listen.
Yes. Go ahead.
The call was cancelled. You do not need to be here.
Please leave the building.
What do you mean, the call was cancelled?
I do not need you.
Please get away from my door.
Mr. Chamberlain.
Let them know that Lifeguard called the police department
specifically to cancel the dispatch.
The company...
My company, they called the police, and said I do not need help.
So please leave.
We haven't been notified of any cancellation.
We've been out here waiting for you for a half an hour.
We have other things to do.
You need to open this door so we can get this over with, sir.
I will not.
Mr. Chamberlain, we told you we did not come here because of a crime.
You have nothing to worry about.
But if you continue not listening to us,
we're gonna have to use force to get what we need.
Force?
Mr. Chamberlain?
Mr. Chamberlain, what's going on? Where are you now?
Bust to my apartment.
- What? - Force.
- They... They said, "force". - Force to do what?
I don't know.
Probably kill me.
What're you...
Why are they doing this to me?
Mr. Chamberlain? Is there a way you can hand the call box to them?
I'm happy to speak to them. If you think that would help.
Okay.
I'm gonna open my door now.
So, you can see that there's no emergency.
I got the company here
and they will tell you that...
That... That they canceled the call.
- I'm opening the door. - We're waiting.
See...
No emergency.
Alright.
Can you let us in so we can check you out?
No.
Mr. Chamberlain, take the slap lock off.
We need to make sure that you're okay.
- Mr. Chamberlain... - No.
Stop resisting the door.
Just get your foot away from the door, Mr. Chamberlain.
You can't come into my apartment.
Stop resisting.
Push.
Stop fighting, son. Come on, just let us in.
Who the hell you're calling "son"?
- Officers, hello? - I'm 70 years old.
Open up the damn door.
Mr. Chamberlain...
Get your foot away from the door and let us do our job.
Tell them. Tell them.
Officers this is the Lifeguard Medical Alerts company.
We cancelled the dispatch for Mr. Chamberlain's home.
He does not have an emergency. You're free to leave.
- Mr. Chamberlain. - Leave me alone.
God damn it.
Mr. Chamberlain?
Mr. Chamberlain, what was all that noise? Are you alright?
We've not come here because of a crime.
But you're making us think you have something to hide.
Hello? What's going on?
They... They're trying to force my door open.
Is the door closed now? Are you all right?
No, I am not alright.
The White Plains Police is trying to break into my apartment.
Hey!
Calm down. Calm yourself.
We've been out for 45 minutes, Sarge.
I don't want to hear another word out of you. Stand over there, now!
What are we doing here? We can't use force to get into this guy's place.
Like hell, we can.
Sarge, you heard him. He sounded like he was scared.
Should we even be doing this, if he's escalated?
He needs to learn, he's not the boss.
He doesn't have an emergency. What are we doing here anymore?
What do you mean? We just got the door slammed in our face.
I don't know what's going on.
- Sarge, he's... - Rossi!
I am done being patient.
It's gonna be our ass if we leave here and he dies.
Or if he's got some half-dead hooker locked up in there.
- He was... - Rossi!
Something's going on in there.
Okay, I'm not leaving until we get in that apartment.
How we're gonna do that?
Let's use the irons.
It'll take FD two minutes to get over here.
Break the seal with a Halligan.
If that doesn't work we'll take the damn door off its hinges.
Alright. Call rescue 88. Get them over here as soon as possible.
This is 87. We need rescue 88
at this well-check on South Lex as soon as possible.
Yes?
Sir, this is Parks. I'm on that EDP well-check on South Lex.
You make visual contact yet?
Not yet. He a... open the door a crack.
We couldn't really see anything.
Then he freak out and slammed it shut.
We're gonna need more support here, though. Maybe, SRT.
You have to be patient. You might just have to wait him out.
- Who else is with you? - Jackson and Rossi.
All right, I'll send SRT. Just stay in control and keep Jackson calm.
We don't want another Second Street mess.
Yes, sir. I'll keep him in line.
Good.
What's the word, Sarge?
We just gotta get in there. SRT's on the way.
Jackson, you stay here. Rossi, you're with me.
- Let's go talk to 88. - Yes, sir.
Freeze!
Our secret.
Where they keep...
Mr. Chamberlain, this is Candace again.
I spoke to my supervisor about what's happening. Are you okay?
They... I... I think they're leaving now.
- They are? - Yeah. Uh...
There's only... There's only one left.
Is...
Here we go. Go.
Officer!
What's going on?
Is Kenny, okay?
He's gonna be fine. As long as he listens to us.
Look, I can talk to him if that'll help.
Don't worry about it. We've got it handled.
Uh... My uncle is sick.
You're gonna break in his home.
He's gonna be fine, ma'am.
- No, no, you can't do that. - Ma'am, shut up!
Mind your business and get to where you're going,
or we're gonna have a big problem.
Hey, there's gonna be people watching us.
We can't break into this guy's place with an audience.
Rossi, where do you think you are?
Hmm?
This isn't The Hamptons.
If you knock on any one of these doors,
you're gonna find something illegal.
Whether it's drugs, prostitution, stolen merchandise.
You're going to find it. That is the job.
If you don't want to participate, fine.
Your stand over there and you keep your mouth shut.
- Hello? - Daddy, what's happening?
Carol said she talked to the company.
She's worried something's gonna happen with the police.
Oh, baby, I'm taking care of it.
I'm fine.
They got no warrant. No probable cause.
There's nothing they can do.
But... Wait... What...
- Are you sure, you're okay? - Yeah. I'm fine.
I tell you, I'm fine.
I'm fine. I told you.
I told you, I'm fine.
You're taking your medication?
Yes. I've been taking my damn medication.
What the...
What? What is it, Daddy? What happened?
Hello, Daddy, what's going on?
Something's happening out there.
What? What do you mean? With the police?
Daddy, talk to me, please. Hello?
Something's going on.
- What is it? Tell me. - Oh, look...
- I got to go, baby. I'll call you back. - No, wait, hold on...
Good.
What up, Sarge?
Oh, no.
Hey.
Go away.
- Bringing in the big gun. - What's up, big guy.
Alright.
What's up, man? It's been a while.
We've got a psychotic threat inside of the apartment.
What's happening?
So we got here on 5:30. Knock on the door.
He's telling us everything's fine,
but we're hearing some strange things comin' out of that apartment.
He's emotionally disturbed
and I think he's got someone else in there with him.
But you never got a visual?
Not a good one. He's been non-compliant the whole time.
We just need to breach the door and get in there.
He's been playing games with us for way too long.
Did you hear anyone else from inside?
We're hearing someone else.
It doesn't make sense to me any other way.
We can start with the irons, see where that gets us.
On a steel door? Good luck.
It's gonna take a while.
What's the rookie's deal?
He's bein' a crybaby. Thinks we're not bein'
emotionally sensitive enough.
Got it.
Let's clear up, make some room.
- Jackson? - Yes, sir.
Sarge, why don't you pop that taser open too?
This is 87 to Dispatch.
We're commencing the breach at 135 South Lex.
Copy that, 87.
- Sarge. - What?
With all due respect, you cannot use a Taser on this guy.
Why the hell not?
They said he has a heart condition.
What do you suggest we use?
I suggest we get the hell out of here, okay.
We don't need to be here anymore.
He poses no threat to anyone.
You think gettin' the door shut in our faces,
screaming all kinds of nonsense, isn't posin' a threat to anyone?
We are not leaving until we get that door open.
Look, now that SRT's here, I may just go back to the hub.
You're not goin' anywhere.
Yo, Kenneth, you remember me? It's Sgt. Flannigan.
Yeah, I remember you
from my walkin' post around here.
We're gonna give you one last chance to open this door, buddy.
Come on, Kenneth, we don't want to have to bust your door down.
No, thank you.
I...
I don't need your help.
You're gonna have to let us in some time.
Come on, you're a grown-ass man.
Enough of this crybaby stuff. Let's handle this like adults.
Just let us in, we'll check you out, then we'll leave.
I'm tellin' you, I'm fine.
I'm not sick, I do not need your help.
Thank you for your time.
But please, get away from my door.
Hey, hey, I gotta take a piss, you know?
Yeah, come on, let your old buddy in, let, let me use the can.
Come on.
Open the door!
It's your last chance, my friend.
All right, you made your choice.
Fire in the hole, boys.
Ready?
No! No! Oh!
- Hello, Mr. Chamberlain? - Yes.
- What's... what's going on? - The White...
- White Plains police... - What is that noise?
...is trying to break down my door.
Help me.
Come on.
You can end this by openin' the door!
Hold on. Please calm down, Mr. Chamberlain, it's okay.
I thought you said the officers were leaving, but they're still there?
Yes!
What is that noise?
That's the police at my door.
We're not gonna hurt you, Kenneth, Just open this damn door.
No. You are not coming into my home.
It's not up to you anymore.
Got ourselves one stubborn Cocoa Puff, huh?
All right, all right, all right, let me try.
Mr. Chamberlain, what's happening? Please talk to me.
I did not call you. I do not need you. I am not sick.
You're not coming into my home.
- Officers... Hello? - They're trying to...
enter my home without a warrant.
With... Without probable cause.
This is illegal.
- Agh! - What was that?
Wedge it. Wedge it. Get it, get it, get it! Get in there.
Get the hell out of my building.
- You leave! Now! - Officers...
Help me! Help me!
I need help!
Get out of here.
Sir, please respond.
- Help! - What the hell's going on down here?
People are trying to sleep.
Sir, please, you need to go back inside,
- or get down the stairs. - What's going on?
Sir, get down the stairs. Please.
Why is that man screaming like that?
Sir, please, you need to get down the stairs.
Mr. Chamberlain, what's happening?
All of this banging...
Hey! Hey! Hey!
Don't touch me!
I'm so sorry, ma'am. We have an unstable situation going on.
- Please move down the stairs. - Kenneth! Come on!
You're gonna open this door or what?
I told you, I gotta take a piss.
I'm gonna come in and take a piss.
This is illegal!
I gotta go to work in the morning.
All this fuss going on down here.
Come on, Kenneth.
Just leave!
Mr. Chamberlain, talk to me, please.
Hello.
Pa. It's Junior. Are you okay? What's going on?
Junior. Hey, look, I can't talk right now.
Kick it open!
The police are outside my door.
I'm coming over.
No, no, I don't want you over here.
I don't know what these cops are gonna do.
Kenny!
Come on, buddy, what you got behind the door?
Are you okay, Pa?
I'll take care of it.
Kenny! Take this damn lock off!
Let us do our job.
You're making this hard on your own.
Take this damn lock off, Kenneth!
What is all this noise?
Something's going on in that man's apartment.
They keep banging on the door. They're trying to break it down.
They've been calling him names, tormenting him. This is ain't right.
- Did he do something? - I don't know.
- Is he inside? - Yeah, he in there.
Tonya, you see this?
It's my uncle's apartment.
This is your uncle's?
Does he have a problem?
Y'all have been here all morning...
Please step back down on that ledge, please.
We're handling this. Thank you.
- Yeah, I see that you're handling this. - Step back down. Thank you.
Tonyia's there, right?
No, no. No, Tonyia is not here.
Why don't you talk to her, Pa?
Do they know about your condition?
They don't care.
You know how these cops are around here.
I've got to call Tonyia, to make sure she knows what's going on.
Okay, Pa?
- Okay. - Everything is gonna be okay.
Mr. Chamberlain, are you okay?
Are they still there?
Mr. Chamberlain.
What is going on?
I don't know.
Please, ladies and gentlemen, we need you to clear this area.
It's unsafe for you to be here.
You can't tell us what to do. We live here.
Police's always treating us like we don't belong here.
- This is our home. - Right.
For your own safety, I need you to clear this area.
- Please. Thank you. - I ain't going nowhere.
It's not gonna help if you...
All right! All right! All right!
Mr. Chamberlain,
You understand you're disobeying a direct order
from a police officer. You know, you could be
arrested for that right now.
No. This is no lawful instruction.
I'm allowed to be secure in my home
without unreasonable search or seizure.
No one shall issue without probable cause.
Read the damn constitution!
You have no warrant.
And you have no probable cause.
I'm a former United States Marine.
And if you enter my home unlawfully,
I will defend myself.
Be all you can be.
Please. Get out!
Mr. Chamberlain. What is that?
- What is that? - Undo that lock!
Come on, buddy!
Are you alright?
If you're doing anything illegal,
or you have somebody in there,
we're gonna find out. We're not playing games anymore.
I'm not playing games either.
- Sir, talk to me! - You're not coming
into my apartment!
See if you can find a way up on the roof.
Find one of his windows, distract him, get him away from that door.
I got it!
I'll do it.
All right, go.
You're not coming into my apartment.
Mr. Chamberlain. You need to undo that lock.
- I did not call you. - Mr. Chamberlain...
I've done nothing wrong.
These cops have broke my damn door!
Pull, pull, pull!
Talk to me, please. What's happening?
Get the bolt cutters, were gonna cut that slap lock.
Have your guys tack up. And bring in a shield.
Kenneth!
We got you surrounded, buddy.
You got no choice.
It's time to start listening.
No!
...without cause.
Mr. Chamberlain. Mr. Chamberlain. It's okay. It's okay. Look.
It's okay.
It's all right. I'm just...
I'm just here because I want to have a conversation with you.
I'm not gonna bang on anything.
I'm not gonna... I'm not gonna try to force my way inside here.
I'm just... I'm just gonna kneel like this.
I just want to have a friendly conversation with you.
Yeah.
My name's Rossi.
Michael Ross.
See my hands right here.
I know this is difficult for you, Mr. Chamberlain.
And I know that these officers, they're not making you feel safe, but you...
do me a favor and just... just... just put that knife down.
Can you...
Can you put that knife down for me?
Can you put down that knife for me, please?
And then you and I, we can have a nice, friendly, calm, calm conversation.
I haven't done anything.
I'm just in my... home alone.
I didn't do nothing.
I'm here alone in my own.
Ain't nobody else here.
Just me.
I just want to go to sleep.
I know, I know, I know.
Look, I'm just here alone too, okay.
Look, there's nobody else here with me, okay?
So if you could just...
You could just open up these bars for me.
Look at me. Just me alone.
- Just you? - I could come in there.
- Nobody else? - Nobody else, I...
I could come in there, just me, okay?
Just me. And I could just take a peek around, make sure everything is good
and I can go back to the other officers
and let them know that you're okay.
And you can go back to sleep, Mr. Chamberlain.
Put that gun away first.
Put it over there.
I'll tell you what.
- No, don't! - No, no, no.
Look, look, look, look, look.
See?
All right?
What do you say, huh?
- Yeah. - All right? So if you could just...
Could you unlock these bars?
Unlock ' em and I can...
I can come in. Just me.
Nobody else?
Nobody else. Nobody else at all. It's just...
They don't even know I'm doing this, Mr. Chamberlain.
So what do you say, huh?
All right?
- Nobody else. - Nobody else...
- Cornbread, enough with the bullshit! - No!
Get out of here.
Mr. Chamberlain.
- Hello. - Pop, it's Junior.
What's going on, did Tonyia come down?
I... I don't know.
They're still trying to bust into my apartment.
They are... They are outside my room.
They are outside my windows harassing me.
They broke my damn door with a fireman's ax.
What? Pa, I'm coming down there.
No, no, no, no!
You stay put. It's too dangerous down here.
I'm leaving right now.
I said no!
Pa...
I just don't want this to be another...
You know what happened last year.
Okay.
All right. I know.
Junior, I gotta go. I'll call you when they gone.
No, Pop, I'm heading down there now.
No, no, no, I'm fine, Junior. I love you.
Love you too.
Dad, hold on. I'll see you soon.
Junior!
Junior! Junior!
Junior!
Fuck!
So, Sarge is gonna cut the slap lock with bolt cutters,
and we're going to push that door open.
He's got a... He's got a...
chair or something in the entryway, blocking the doorway.
Once we get the lock, if we have to, we'll take the door off the hinges.
Now once that door is open, Evans, take the shield.
Jackson, you cover.
I'll take the bags and communicate, all right?
Okay, let's show this Angus, who's boss.
Rossi, get these people out of here.
Officer, officer, please.
I'm Kenny's niece. Please let me talk to him.
I could help you.
Officer, please, I'm telling you,
I can help you if you let me talk to him.
Hey, we don't got time to play these games, all right?
You all need to get out of the hallway.
I'm telling you, I can...
Ma'am, stay back and let us do our job.
Handle this.
Evans, come here.
Someone should call 911.
Tell them what's going on.
All right. Okay.
Okay.
No!
Kenneth, this is on you, buddy.
Do not cut that lock!
Go!
Put the knife down, sir!
Put the goddamn knife down, Kenneth!
Not until you leave!
It's for your own good, my friend!
Watch out! Watch out!
Kenneth, get away from the door
and put the goddamn knife down!
I... I do not want you here.
I have done nothing. You have no warrant,
you have no legal cause,
and you illegally broke my door!
Oh! Watch out. Watch out. Watch out.
Kenneth, come on!
I do not want you inside my apartment!
Sir, I'm begging you, I am begging you, please!
Please! Just let me talk to him,
my uncle can't handle this.
He has a heart condition, and he didn't do anything!
He... he don't have no emergency!
What did he do to deserve all this?
Please, please, just let me talk to him.
Maybe, maybe he'll open the door for me.
Hold on, okay?
Chamberlain's niece is right over there,
she's begging for her to speak to him.
Tonya! Oh, God, help me!
Help me, Tonya!
What for? So they can sing kumbaya?
- Not gonna happen. - He's not gonna open the door for us.
- He will never open the door for us! - Hey!
Maybe he'll open the door for her!
Hey! Hey! Stand down! Look at me!
We're not playing these games anymore.
He's been jerking us around for almost an hour now.
And you lost your chance
to contribute to this operation
when you decided to question your Sergeant's authority.
Now, you get her out of here.
I'm sorry. We're gonna have to clear this area, please.
Wait, wait a minute.
- Are they... - Please.
- Slam it. - Slam it.
- Get it. - Come on.
Get it!
Yeah!
- Stop it. Stop it. - Mr. Chamberlain?
It's not coming.
Stop it. Stop it.
- Knife! Knife! Knife! - Talk to me!
Knife! Knife! Knife!
No! No!
Got it!
All right!
Get the knife! Get the knife!
Talk to me, please. What's happening?
Get out! Get out!
You broke my lock!
Oh!
Mr. Chamberlain?
Fear not, for God gave us a spirit
not of fear, but of power and love...
Stop making a mess, Kenneth. You're doing this to yourself!
...and self-control. He's always with us.
He renews my strength.
Mr. Chamberlain? Hello?
Uh, he's got something blocking the door!
We're gonna have to get those hinges off!
No, no.
All right. I got the sledge. I got it.
- Oh... - Sir?
Even though I walk through the darkest valley.
I will not be afraid, for you are close beside me.
Your rod and your staff protect and comfort me...
Mr. Chamberlain, please...
- I can't leave until you pick up, sir, please! - No, no, no!
Do not break down my door!
This is on you, buddy. It's your choice!
- Mr. Chamberlain... - Don't you take my door off!
No! Oh!
Please, Mr. Chamberlain!
It's over, Mr. Chamberlain! It's over!
Goddamn it, leave me alone!
Stop! Stop it! Don't you take my door off!
911. Here. Talk to the police. Here, take it.
Yeah. Hello, I'm at 135 South Lexington,
um, White Plains, New York.
The police are trying to break down my uncle's door!
Sorry, what was the address?
Yes, 1-3-5 South Lexington!
Sorry, ma'am...
I know they're already here. Can you send somebody?
- Ma'am... - Please!
He didn't do anything. They are harassing him!
He didn't do anything!
- Leave me alone! - I see him! Get him!
Sir? I need you to pick up.
No. No, no... my...
Hello? Mr. Chamberlain?
Hello, President Obama.

This is Kenneth Chamberlain. President Obama!
- The police have broken down my door... - Mr. Chamberlain,
- w hat's going on? - Without probable cause, without a warrant!
Please help me!
Please try to stay calm.
Stop fighting us, Mr. Chamberlain!
You are being recorded.
Your actions, they will be remembered!
Sarge, take a break, get out of there!
This is a crime!
I don't give a fuck, you fucking nigger!
What is that?
Hey! What did you just say now?
What the fuck did you just say?
What's the fuck is wrong with you, man?
- Come on! Let's act like adults! - What's wrong with you?
Calm down!
I am 70 years old, I have a bad heart.
You say that shit one more time. Okay?
- Okay. - Just, say it again!
All right. All right.
- Hello! - This is my sworn testimony for the Department of Justice.
Do you hear me, sir?
What the hell is the matter with you?
I'm trying to get in that goddamn door!
Who the hell do you think you are?
You're getting a 5-80.
- Act like a fucking police officer! - Okay.
Calm down.
Without a warrant, without probable cause!
This is my home...
Shut up!
Take the shield.
What's fucking wrong with you?
You are being recorded. Your actions will be remembered!
Sir! Please pick up.
Now lock it up, and let's act like police officers, now!
Are you ready to do this?
- Open up the fucking door. - On my count.
One...
Two...
Three!
No! Oh!
Hello? What is going on?
Go, go, push, push, push!
Mr. Chamberlain, can you hear me?
Are you okay?
Leave me alone!
Just tell me what's goin' on. Mr. Chamberlain.
Please talk to me!
- This ain't right. - Back up.
Just let me...
- Please tell me what's happening. - Leave me alone!
Sir? Mr. Chamberlain, what's going on?
The police have broken down my door.
They're in my apartment!
Now they're coming at me with tasers and shotguns.
Drop any weapons you have, and lay still on the ground!
Leave me alone!
Just listen to us, Kenneth!
Mr. Chamberlain, we're not gonna hurt you.
Leave!
We don't want to do this, Mr. Chamberlain!
Just listen to us!
Lord, I trust in you.
Just follow their instructions, Mr. Chamberlain. Just do what they say!
- Just do what they say! - Never let me be disrespected...
We don't wanna do this!
Give me your strength and give me your protection...
Save me.
- Mr. Chamberlain, just do what they say! - Save me.
Leave!
- Hit it! - Hello.
Grab him.
Mr. Chamberlain, please talk to me.
Mr. Chamberlain?
Oh, Lord, have mercy, because I am in misery.
Stay down!
All right, all right. Now, everybody, just stop!
All right, this is over.
You're not fucking listening!
Oh, my God!
Don't do anything!
Get his arms!
My eyes are weak...
Put your ass down, cornbread.
Stop fighting!
I'm using up my strength.
Get off of him. This is over.
Get off me!
Kenny, I'm over here!
I cannot breathe!
Mr. Chamberlain, stay down, before you get hurt.
Get off me!
All right!
What are you doing?
Ahh! I can't breathe! Stop!
Mr. Chamberlain, are you okay?
No! Stop! Stop!
I tell people, good, bad, or indifferent,
my father loved me. I loved him.
I did plenty of things that he didn't agree with,
that he would really get on me about.
But one thing that I can always say is
that no matter what I went through,
my father supported me. He encouraged me.
He let me find my way.
This is your help center for Life Aid.
Kenneth, do you need help?
Mr. Chamberlain, you pressed your medical button.
Do you need help?
Mr. Chamberlain, I'm not getting a response.
I'm going to notify someone to come by and help you now.
White Plains Police Office.
This is your help center for Life Aid.
Mr. Chamberlain, do you need help?
Yes. It's an emergency.
I have the White Plains Police Department,
banging on my door.
I did not call them, and I am not sick!
You're going to kill me, huh?
You're gonna beat my fucking ass.
Leave me alone. I didn't call anybody.
Now leave!
Oh!
Oh, they have shotguns, y'all.
They have stun guns and shotguns.
They're planning on taking me
to the White Plains Police Department and beat me.
And then kill me.
Don't do that, sir.
Don't do that. Don't do that, officer.
Don't do that. Don't do that. Don't do that.
