Sargento, El Podcast: Issues with Neighbors and Self-Defense

• Summary of the first episode of Sargento, El Podcast: Police and neighbors
• Neighbors, a topic that has much to discuss.
• Cases where personal defense is necessary.

We present to you the summary of the first episode of Sergeant Cornejo’s Podcast, in which the central theme was neighbors and self-defense.

We all know that neighbors are a part of our lives whether we like it or not, and that our relationship with them is important.

Who hasn’t had a situation where a neighbor hasn’t helped them? Or on the other extreme, who hasn’t had a neighbor that causes problems all the time?

Because of that, Sergeant has made the decision to share key information: when can you call the police for neighbor issues?

Police and neighbors

Sergeant, with his characteristic humor, mentions a couple of stories of people who have contacted him for reasons that the police cannot really do anything about.

For example, if your neighbor is having a loud party… That, he says, is not a valid reason to call the police because they cannot do anything.

He comments that there are cases where people call the police, but in reality, they cannot do anything to make the neighbors stop doing what bothers others.

For example, living in apartments and the people above making noise… People call the police for that and it’s not something they can intervene in.

Applicable cases

One of the cases mentioned is when your neighbor makes some kind of threat to you or when there are weapons that pose a danger to people.

But he says that is very rare to happen, but unfortunately, it could happen.

They also mention what can be done in certain cases where the police can intervene, such as harassment, a restraining order against a person.

It never hurts to know more strategies to know when the law can intervene and the ways in which you can act to protect yourself.

Recordings

Surely you have seen one or more videos of people being recorded or recordings in places considered private or public and you have heard the phrase stop recording.

Can you ask for that? What risks are there? Where can I record? All those questions are answered by Sergeant Cornejo once and for all.

You will also be surprised by the cases he has experienced and that show you situations that could happen to you and you will already have a couple of answers to act.

But that’s not all, there’s one more topic that might interest you.

Self-defense

What if, in a hypothetical case, someone breaks into your house and you shoot? Are you acting correctly? Would you go to prison for that?

Cornejo mentions a real case where someone tried to steal a truck and the owner shot at him and then the legal situation was complicated.

He mentions clear differences between property and people’s lives, something that many people do not take into account and is key when facing the law.

All this and more you could learn with Sergeant Cornejo in his first broadcast. We want you to have information so you don’t get deceived and also be calm. Without further ado, see you next time!
