Austin traffic Bluetooth#
An example of Bluetooth traffic analysis is tracking how a city’s population moves over time. In the past decade, institutions began to analyze trends in Bluetooth data for traffic analysis. One technology currently in development for urban planning applications is Bluetooth technology. As technology continues to grow, new applications in geography and city planning will continue to develop. With the explosion of the internet of things, large collections of data hide unforeseen patterns waiting for future research to uncover. It is necessary to aggressively drive the front of the (Taser) into the subject for maximum effect."Įspinoza's body is covered in what looks like snake bites from the drive-stuns, Mehr said, and he had to be treated at a hospital for the Taser barb that caught his lip.There is a growing field of research surrounding geography and big data. "The subject is likely to recoil and try to get away from the (Taser). "Simply “touching” the (Taser) against the subject is not sufficient," the company's website says. In all, Mehr said Espinoza was stunned by Tasers 35 times, the vast majority being in the drive-stun mode, described by the maker of Taser as "a pain compliance option."

You're going to do what you're told to do and that's it," Trujillo tells him. Soon after getting him in the car, Trujillo asks for Espinoza's ID and then forcefully removes him from the car, dragging him down on the icy road. When Espinoza hesitates to get in, saying "Give me a second," and then seems to resist getting in, Trujillo deploys his Taser, which is when one of the weapon's barbs hits Espinoza in the lip. The officers get Espinoza out of the car and handcuff him before leading him to Trujillo's cruiser. Noel gets into the passenger seat and uses his Taser's drive-stun mode on Espinoza multiple times. "You're gonna get lit up," Trujillo tells Espinoza after repeatedly telling him to get out of the car. Noel continues to aim his gun at Espinoza while Trujillo pulls his Taser.įrom there, footage shows Trujillo forcefully grabbing Espinoza's arm and twist it backward outside the truck with him still inside. Instead of getting out of the car, Espinoza slowly parallel parks the truck next to Trujillo's cruiser. Immediately after Espinoza starts to pull away, Noel shouts, "Stay! Stay!" He grabs the door handle on the slow-moving truck while shouting and pulls his gun and points it at Espinoza, screaming at him to "get out the (expletive) car!" Things escalated after Noel joined his fellow deputy and told Espinoza to leave twice. Americans have the right to record and observe traffic stops and other police activity as long as they don't interfere. Separate body camera footage shows that Espinoza was sitting in his truck a safe distance from the traffic stop, which is not illegal. Trujillo responded: "You need to leave now or you're going to get charged. "I don't need to do anything, I'm on a public street," Espinoza said. "You need to leave," Trujillo told him in a conversation that escalated after Espinoza resisted the idea that he had to move his truck. Henry Trujillo, immediately took issue with Espinoza waiting for his son's traffic stop to wrap up. Espinoza's son, Nathaniel, was pulled over for what Deputy Mikhail Noel told him was driving too close to his patrol vehicle, according to body cam footage of the entire incident.Įspinoza pulled his truck over behind the deputy but not closely behind him. One of the most disturbing aspects of the case is why the police were even concerned about Espinoza in the first place, Mehr said in the lawsuit.Įspinoza was in his truck following his son, who was in a separate truck, as the pair headed to a mechanic on Nov. "I could talk for hours about all of the things that were done wrong in this situation," Espinoza's attorney, Kevin Mehr, said Friday.

Navarette said in a separate news release last week that Espinoza was only tased once, which Espinoza's attorney says is a lie. Sheriff Derek Navarette declined to comment on the lawsuit Friday and only said that the two officers involved were placed on leave last week pending an outside investigation of Espinoza's arrest. The lawsuit, filed last week, accuses the officers of excessive force, false arrest, and malicious prosecution, among other claims. Kenneth Espinoza of Colorado Springs filed the lawsuit in federal court against the Las Animas County Sheriff's Office and the two officers who pointed guns at him and tased him. A Colorado man is suing police for using a Taser stun gun on him repeatedly while he was handcuffed, including the face, and throwing him onto the icy ground after he had already been put into the back of a cruiser.
