Hello,
As you can see in the POV, I was at the Black Market. I was about to get back into my car when, for no RP reason, ID 448954 tasered me and handcuffed me. However, I had already pressed F to enter my vehicle, so he accused me of "black magic." He then tasered me a second time to force me back out of the vehicle.
Tasing someone for absolutely no IC reason isn't RP even with a corrupt bio they still need an RP reason to interact with someone.
and being near black market isn't one. Therefore I believe, this is Fail RP.
At that point, I simply assumed he was a new officer who didn't really know the rules. Because of this, I had no issue telling him he was being an ass. Apparently, calling him a "dickhead" was taken as an OOC insult, although I was referring to his IC character and his behaviour, not him as a player.
When he drove me to the airstrip, I realised he had to be corrupt. At that point, I had a good idea of how the situation was going to play out. He told me I had two options: either pay him a $100,000 bribe or receive $300,000 in fines and five months in prison. I agreed to pay the $100,000.
At 06:04, he said he was going to call his friend for backup, but nobody ever arrived.
At 07:14, while I was transferring the money, you can clearly hear him say "600k okay." Because of this, I cancelled the transaction to confirm what he had just said. He then treated this as though I was refusing to pay, despite my POV clearly showing that he was the one who said "600k." In the end, I successfully transferred him the agreed $100,000 by bank transfer.
After receiving the bribe, he then drove me to a separate location behind Los Santos Customs. He told me that, "for messing with him," he was going to put a bag over my head, fire a gun next to my ear, and then make me run for my life. I complied with everything he instructed me to do, but I don't understand how this was justified.
After the interaction, I checked to confirm whether he had a Corrupt Bio, which he does:
Approved - LSPD Corrupt Bio | Harryy MaddisonFlow | 448954
However, one of the conditions of his approved Corrupt Bio states:
In this situation, tasering someone who was simply walking back to their car is not an IC reason and, in my opinion, clearly constitutes random targeting. He never interacted with me or attempted to roleplay with me beforehand. The first thing he did was taser and handcuff me.
I'm also unsure whether a corrupt officer is permitted to continue abusing someone after the bribe has already been paid. To me, what happened afterwards was unnecessary torture and served no beneficial purpose to the officer. The entire purpose of a Corrupt Bio is to provide some form of benefit to the corrupt officer, such as accepting a bribe. Once he had already received the $100,000, forcing a bag over my head, firing a gun beside me, abandoning me, and making me run for my life did not provide him with any further benefit. It simply appeared to be an abuse of his powers.
The entire interaction is visible in the POV. You can also see that I was left stranded with a bag over my head for around four minutes. The only way I was able to remove it was by finding my way to the road and intentionally getting another player to stop by allowing them to hit me with their vehicle so they could remove the bag.
In my opinion, this is a clear misuse of his Corrupt Bio and also appears to breach one of the conditions under which it was approved, specifically the condition prohibiting random targeting without a valid IC reason.
