Harris.

Rule broken: abusing police powers
Date and time: 22/10/2025

Proof:
In the following clips you can see Harris leaving no distance and insta arresting me making it impossible for me to have a chance to even move off and allows her to farm arrests which I never consented to helping her do:

After being told by John to stop with the behavior stated in the above paragraph, Harris now continues to abuse police powers in another way by attempting to block the unload path as seen below on 24/10/2025:

Hi

I just wanted to clarify a few things regarding the videos mentioned in the report.

Firstly, the first three videos are actually quite old. As John mentioned earlier, those were recorded before I received proper guidance on the updated process. Back then, the instruction was simply to "Do not appear in the minimap , load and then chase," which explains the difference in how I handled things. I'm not sure why those older clips have been included again in the current report, as they don't reflect the new procedure I've been following since John's feedback.

Secondly, regarding the fourth video — I was aware of the loading process, but I didn't realize at the time that the unloading point was actually the SF hideout. If you look closely at the mini-map, you can see I was just arriving there. I was even reversing the bike slightly to give you space to enter. Also, you were a suspect during that moment, so regardless of whether I was blocking or not blocking the road, it shouldn't really be considered an issue or a rule break, if I'm not mistaken.

I hope this clears things up and gives better context behind those clips.

Even if the police were blocking the road, isn't it the thief's responsibility to escape and find another route rather than complain that a cop happened to be in the way and blocking a thief from stealing? That reasoning doesn't really make sense to me. If this is still being considered a valid complaint, I'd appreciate a clear explanation or reference to the specific rule so I can properly understand and justify my actions.

I'd also like to emphasize again that the first three videos were recorded before John provided me with proper guidance. As shown in the chat, John was online at the time and specifically advised me to "let him load and then chase." I followed that instruction, and John later confirmed with me that I wasn't making any mistakes and that I was doing everything correctly.

Also, I feel that the SF Doherty setup is unbalanced — by the time I manage to close the distance to reach the thief, the robbery is already over. I understand there's probably not much that can be done about it, but it basically leaves the cop just watching the robbery happen and moving around helplessly.

The first issue which John messaged you about I only reported now because you then decided to block the unload path, whether you reversed or not why you parked bike like that in the gap for any reason other than trying to block the entry there. I wanted to post all evidence from past few days of your actions as a result of this.

If blocking unload path is allowed, can a staff member make it clear here please because it doesn't make sense then as someone can just hover on unload spot / block path to unload with a large vehicle preventing mission completions. Isn't cop's job to chase and arrest fairly instead of blocking unload paths to try gain unfair advantage? I had no issue with you arresting prior to these events because you played fairly initially.
