‘ICE Agent’ Busted for DUI with His Kids in His Truck: Cops

I'm federal. Okay. I'm trying to get home. I got my. boys with me. Who do you work for? DHS. Do you have your ID with you? No, I don't. This is an unusual. situation. You have deputies in the. Florida Keys who stop a truck that they. say was all over the road and a father. and his two sons were inside. So, immediately concerned about the. children's safety and the driver's level. of intoxication, the deputies get him. out of the truck to do field sobriety. tests. But, based on body cam footage of. the interaction, which we have and which.

we will play, it seems he would rather. argue about whether he should get. special treatment as an alleged fellow. member of the thin blue line. Welcome to. Sidebar, presented by Law & Crime. I'm. Jesse Weber. [Music]. 42-year-old Scott Thomas DeSerres was. arrested in August for DUI and child. endangerment after a higher-up in the. sheriff's department noticed him. allegedly driving recklessly. And I will. tell you we got our hands on the footage. to see how this all played out and you. will see for yourself.

So, this is around 3:30 p.m. August 13th. and DeSerres is pulled over on the. shoulder of this long overpass. When. Deputy Jonathan Lane approaches the. truck window, that is when DeSerres. brings up pretty quickly that he works. for a US government agency. Hello. Uh can you roll down the the back. windows for me, too? Sorry, you got you got real dark tint. Hello. Uh. So, Scott, where are you coming from?

Miami down here to Islamorada and then. back. So, you're coming from Miami to. Islamorada and you're going back to. Miami? Yeah, I live in Miami. Okay. Do you know where you are right now? Yeah. Where are you? We got the overpass over here. 18-mile stretch. Overseas Highway. Okay. Where Where did you Where did you. do today? Where'd you go? Did you go. fishing? Did you go.

to a restaurant? But, you're you're you're you're about. 100 miles off of where you think you. are. I'm not. You are. Who's the guy in the white. shirt? That's the colonel. Colonel, tell me. What kind of. Uh I'm federal. Okay. I'm trying to get home. I got my. boys with me. Who do you work for? DHS. Do you have your ID with you? No, I don't. Okay. But, if I called them, they'd.

verify that you're a federal officer? >> 100% bro. Okay. You don't have any type of. credentials or anything that say you're. DHS? Not on me, no. Okay. All right. >> bring my weapon with me if I'm. if I'm Okay. But, you don't have any. weapons on you right now? No, I don't. Okay. So, what I want to do, I want to. talk to you away from the kids. So, I'm. going to ask you to step out of the car. and we're going to walk back to the back. of your car, okay? Are you serious right. now? Yes, sir, I am. Now, here's the. thing. Court paperwork that was filed. after his arrest confirmed that DeSerres.

works for ICE, Immigration and Customs. Enforcement, that he's an Army veteran. He was reportedly honorably discharged. at the rank of enlisted staff sergeant, by the way. And here's the thing. Based. on the body cam footage from Deputy. Lane, DeSerres seems to be hoping, I. think the argument would be that this. brotherhood of law enforcement. may help him out of his jam. So, you. said you're coming from Miami, going to. Islamorada and going back to Miami. What. are you going to Islamorada for?

Guys, seriously, are we. are we really doing this right now? I'm just asking you a question. You said. you're going to Islamorada. What are you. What are you going to Islamorada for? Lane. Yeah. Are we really doing this right now? Sir, I'm just asking you a simple. question. You don't have to answer if. you don't want to. But, you said you're going to. Islamorada, so I'm just asking what. you're going for.

Guys. Scott, how much have you had to drink. today? About four. Four what? Four drinks. Like water, alcohol, beer? What'd you. drink? Kool-Aid? Now, obviously, this is a story that we. wanted to bring to you. And the reason. that we can cover something like this is. not only because of the amazing support. that we get from all of you out there, but also from our incredible sponsor.

Are you guys really trying to me right. now? I'm just asking what you you look like. you're impaired. I smell alcohol coming. from you. So, I'm just asking how much. you had to drink to make sure you're not. too impaired to drive that vehicle. Okay. How about this, Scott? So, again, I think that you might be impaired. You. You look Your eyes are bloodshot.

They're kind of glassy. >> really? Yes, sir, they are. Show me. I don't I don't know how you want me to. do that. Take a picture. Okay. We get We can do that in a minute. But, the other reason why I think you're. impaired is just the way you're walking. You were kind of stumbling a little bit. >> walking anywhere. Okay. And then also the way that you. were seen driving, you're like kind of. swerving and stuff and then the the. colonel tried to pull you over and you. didn't immediately stop. You stopped. here on the bridge. He tried to stop you. at a safer spot a little bit back there.

Okay. Doing this. Okay. Okay. So, again, I believe that you may. be impaired by alcohol and/or some type. of chemical substance, which may inhibit. your ability to operate a motor vehicle. safely. So, I'm going to ask you voluntarily. participate in standardized field. sobriety exercises to dispel my belief. you may be impaired. Are you willing to do those exercises? >> Yeah. You'll do them? Yeah. Okay. So, what I'll have you do, you can. just sit on the on the bumper of your. car right there. You're a little bit.

taller, I just need to look at your. eyes. Guys, look. Huh? I'm SFST certified. Okay, so am I. I'm a drug recognition. expert. Do you know what that is? Okay. Anyway, so what I'm going to have. you do, if you can, uncross your feet. and just put them like side by side. Perfect. And then your arms, if you. could, just try to put them down by your. side like that. Okay. So, what I'm going. to have you do is just keep your head. straight and you're just going to keep.

your head like aimed straight at me, basically, and then I'm going to look at. your eyes, okay? Do you understand? Yep. Are you. diabetic? No. Are you epileptic? No. Okay. Do you have any brain injuries? I'm a disabled veteran. Okay. Have you ever had a traumatic brain. injury? Yes, I have. Okay. Does it. affect your ability to operate a. vehicle? Guys, come on. Okay. Well, I'm just asking what your. brain injury is.

Does it affect you in your everyday. life? Do you know what nystagmus is? Onset of. onset of nystagmus, yes. Okay. But, do you know what nystagmus is? Yes, I do. Okay. Do you have nystagmus? Guys, are we really doing this? Okay. Do you have any medical issues. that I need to know about? Are you on blood thinners, painkillers?

Lane. Yep. Talk. I'm talking to you right now. Don't do this. I'm just talking to you, man. It's It's. It's all right. It's It's all right. Take Take a deep breath. If If you're If. you're If you haven't drank too much to. to not be able to operate a vehicle. safely, then, you know. Yeah. >> Come on, guys. We are both law enforcement. I'm just I'm going through a divorce. Don't take my kids, man. I'm not taking your kids from me, man.

I'm just making sure that you're safe to. drive the car. Okay. Do you have any other medical. issues that I need to know about? I don't know. Just any medical issues that might. blow up around me. I've been shot at. Okay. Sorry, man. Take a deep breath. >> Don't tell my kids. I'm not. You're all. right. Take a deep breath. You're okay. I've been shot at.

People have tried to kill me. I just want to go home, guys. Come on, man. I got you, man. But We've been. We've Come on. We know what's up. We've been. We've been down this road before. Problem is is that we're at this point. right now. I understand that. And you know that I have to do what I. have to do. I understand that, but my.

boys are everything. Okay. Where is their mom at? I don't. Do they have anyone down here that would. be able to take care of them? I'm not saying you're going with me, man, but you're you're all worried about. this stuff. I'm just trying to figure. out, you know, if there's someone else. around here that. you know, maybe they could come drive. the car if you think maybe you you drank. too much to drive. Guys. No. No. They're my everything. Okay. So, no medical problems that are.

going to affect your ability to follow. my finger? No. Okay. So, again, what I'm going to have. you do is just keep your head straight, and I'm just going to have you follow. the tip of my finger with your eyes, and. I'm just going to go side to side, and. then I'm going to go up and down, and. I'm going to do a circle around your. head. Do it. And I'm going to tell you. what I'm doing before I do it, okay? I'm. not going to touch you or anything, but. again, I just want you to follow my. finger with your eyes and don't move. your head. Do you understand? Yep. Okay. Ready? Yep. So, Deseroth and Deputy. Lane, they go through the eye test. And.

when it comes time for the walk and. turn, that is when Deseroth still seems. kind of resistant. So, Deputy Lane opens. up, and this is when he reveals that he. himself was arrested for DUI. Yeah, we. double-checked this. We double-checked. the records, and Lane was indeed. arrested in 2023 when he was found. sleeping in his car at a gas station. while off duty. He had to go through the. same field sobriety test as everyone. else. His case on the Monroe County. court docket is marked confidential, so. it's unclear what came of his arrest, but obviously, he's still on the job. And again, he brings this up. Okay.

Um so, the next thing that I'm going to. have you do is the walk and turn. We can probably do it right here. I don't know how easy this would be for. you to do in flip-flops, or if it'd be. easier in your. uh. Lane, I just want to get my kids home. I got you, man. Come on, dude. I'll tell you a true story. I went. through the same thing 2 years ago. You divorced? No. Lane, This. I'm going through a divorce.

right now. Look, man, you I. You drank too much to drive a car. No, I. haven't. You did, okay? Let me get my kids home. You can't drive a car right now, man. [Applause]. Ba- Based on what I'm seeing so far, unless, you know, if you do good on. this, maybe I'm wrong, okay? That's why. we're doing these so that you can dispel. my belief that you're impaired. Okay? Because right now, when I'm seeing. the the stumbling and stuff, I want to. see if you can do this stuff. >> I'm not doing anything. I'm sitting.

right here. Well, no, no, when you. walked out of the truck at first, you. kind of. It it looked like it. Maybe I'm wrong, okay? But that's what this stuff is for. so that we can dispel that belief that I. have that you're impaired. Now, Deputy. Lane explains the instructions for the. walk and turn exercise multiple times, but Deseroth doesn't appear to be having. it. Do you understand those. instructions, sir? Yep. Okay. Could you get back in the starting. position for me, please?

Just left foot on the line and right. foot in front. >> got you, Lane. Okay. Give me a minute. Okay. The deputy does give him a minute, but. Deseroth's excuses, they're kind of. adding up. Okay, man, we it's either a. yes or a no. Just Give me a minute, all. right, Deputy? I I did give you a. minute, sir, but we can't we can't stand. here for for this long, okay?

>> Lane. Yes, sir. Federal law enforcement, I'm going. through a divorce. My. wife, she's trying to take my kids. I'm. just. Give me a minute, all right? Okay. You. know what it's like. You know what it's like to be law. enforcement. >> Well, how long do you need, buddy? Just. give me a minute, all right? Guys, I.

If we give you a minute, are you going. to do the exercise? I will do it. I'm here. Okay. Like I said, I just don't like us. standing here in the road, man, for. >> either, but you know what? My kids are. my life. I got you. No, you don't. Do you got kids? Exactly. Do you have kids? >> No. Exactly. So, you don't know what. it's like. [Applause]. And things take kind of a strange turn. when another deputy on scene tries to.

explain something to Deseroth, and. Deseroth notices his accent. You know. what? Call my supervisor. Okay. Do you want to do the exercises or no? I'll do it. But you know what? What's homeboy doing down there? You. know, guys, come on. Make sure. Are you Haitian? That's not to take with. my wrist, buddy. My question was, are you Haitian? It it doesn't matter. It doesn't matter.

where he's from, okay? Look, man, I really need you to do the. exercise. If you don't If you don't do. it, then I'm going to say that you're. refusing to do the exercise. I get it, you need a minute. I gave you a few. minutes, okay? But Can we talk to your. supervisor? Not right now, sir. Yeah? That's not how this works. You can talk. to him at It is how it works because you. guys are local. Okay, that's not a statute or a law or a. policy or anything that we have. He's. the second from the top underneath of. the sheriff, okay? He's the one that.

pulled you over. Okay? If you want to talk to him, we can, but. right now I'm in the mid- I'm in the. middle of a of an investigation, and. you're not going to talk to my. supervisor in the middle of my. investigation. When I'm concluded with. my investigation, with whichever way. that goes, whether it's you in your car. driving away, or you in the back of my. car in handcuffs, if you want to talk to. my supervisor then, then by all means, you can. But when I'm in the middle of. an investigation, it's you and me, no. one else. Okay? So, this is this is the last.

chance I'm going to give you, okay? Do. you want to do the walk and turn. exercise? Yeah, I'll do it. Okay. So, again, put. your left foot on the line, and then put your right foot in front. touching heel to toe, and your arms. straight down by your side. Okay, I'm. going to show you the instructions again. real quick just to to. refresh your memory, okay? So, left foot. on the ro- line, right foot in front. touching heel to toe. Six, nine heel to toe steps. One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine. Keep the front foot on the line.

Take the back foot off the line, and. you're going to take a series of small. steps with the back foot to turn around, and then you're going to take nine heel. to toe steps back down the line. Do you understand the instructions? I. do. Okay. I want to talk to your. supervisor. Again, sir, once we're done. with the investigation, you are more. than welcome to talk to anyone that you. would like. Okay, you may begin. Okay. Now, Deseroth. doesn't really do well on this exercise. He holds his arms out to steady himself.

as he walks along the painted line, but. still wobbles, stumbles his way through. He continues to seemingly, arguably, be. belligerent and uncooperative, but the. deputy does really a great job of trying. to stay calm here. Okay. Awesome. Uh so, for the next one, the one leg stand, we can come over here. just so we're not in the road anymore. Scott, can you walk over to me, please? Do you want to do the one leg stand. exercise?

Why are you. All right. So, just take a couple steps. forward, like right here. What is first? Okay. Well, in order for me to instruct. you on how to do the exercise, I need. you to stand over here. Awesome. Thank you so much, Scott. When. Deputy Lane questions Deseroth about. where and what he was drinking before. getting behind the wheel, he can't seem. to get a straight answer, and.

eventually, that is when things reach. the point where Deseroth is placed under. arrest. It's all right, Scott. What What. did you do there? I had three drinks. Okay. What What did. you get? I don't know. The bartender made it up. Was it like a cocktail, like a mixed. drink, or a beer? >> Come on, guys. Like whiskey, vodka, tequila, rum, gin? I don't know. Okay. You don't know if it was like I. have not drank in weeks. Did you eat. anything today? Yeah. What did you eat?

I made the boys some pancakes. This morning? Dinosaur pancakes, and. What else did we have? I can't guess. That's all I remember. Okay. All right, Scott, I need you to come. back here with me, please. I'm not going to do this in front of.

your kids, man, but you got to come with. me. I'm not going to do it if. Now, you can put your hands behind your. back. If you're going to pull away, then I'll. do it in front of your kids. Okay. Don't. squeeze my hand. Let go. Guys, I am law enforcement. Okay. I was. going to I was going to do this away. from your kids, man, but if you're going. to pull away from me, then I'll do it in. front of them. Moving. Just relax, man. You're spinning me right now.

Try to keep your hands turned the way. that I have this one, your your left. hand right now. Okay. Try to get this. Okay. Sit.

You're going on the left side. Guys, Lane, why are you doing this? It's uh it's clear to the right. Yeah. You can go to my hood. Just right up against my hood, sir. Do you have anything on you that's going. to hurt us? No, man. Okay.

So, Scott, unfortunately right now you. are under the. you are under arrest for driving under. the influence, okay? >> Lane. Scott, I believe you're impaired. Guys, don't do this. I believe you're too impaired to operate. a motor vehicle safely, Scott. Deputy Lane reminds him that he knows. exactly what Deseroth is going through, that he knows this isn't something fun, but that it's best right now to just. suck it up, push through, but Deseroth doesn't seem keen to be.

taking that advice. Lane, come on, man. Scott, man, dude, please don't do this. to me. I got arrested for DUI 2 years. ago. Lane, I get it. Do you have kids? Own up to. your mistakes, man. You're you're you're. you're a grown adult. I tried my ass off. too. Own up to it. You're going to sit. in jail tonight. It's going to suck. >> Are you serious? >> Yeah. You're going to sit. >> Lane. It's going to suck, man. It sucked. for me, it's going to suck for you, too. It is what it is. Be a man, suck it up.

That's what everyone tells us. I know, I. get it. Whatever. If you're a cop, whatever. Y'all. I'm on parole, dude. >> then stop talking and sit in the back of. the car and stop. No, come. Stop this. >> What about my kids? We're going to We're. going to take care of No, I'm not going. in there. Let me talk to your supervisor. Again, you can talk to him in a second. >> No. Not going in there without my. supervisor. Okay, let's go to the other. side. Come here. Come on, man, don't pull against me.

Let's go over. >> I'm not moving, bro. do this. Lane. Okay, I'm going. Hey, come on, buddy, we're not doing. this. So, YOU GUYS. COME ON, PUT YOUR FEET IN. STAND UP. >> STAND UP, COME ON. Stand up. Put your. feet in. No. Man, don't be a kid, come. on. Where are my kids? >> Stand up, put your feet in. What? >> Put your feet in. Put your feet in. You. don't want to make this worse already. Come on, come on, man, let's go.

>> You got to sit in the car, man. >> to jail for DUI, what you think they're. going to do to me if I don't cooperate? You go to jail for resisting. We don't. want to make it worse. Come on, put your. feet in, buddy. All right, your kids will be fine. This. will pass. Listen to me. Come on, let's go, man. Okay, we we we. got to sit down, Scott. You guys Thank you. Okay, Lane, you really me, man. man, I'm not the one that drank today. and drove. Here's something interesting. From the body cam footage, we learn that.

it was actually a colonel within the. Monroe County Sheriff's Office who first. spotted Deseroth's truck, and he tells. Deputy Lane what he saw and what. happened when he tried to get the man to. pull over. And the And the two lane? Yeah, yeah, he's straddling the middle. Stopped down. the southbound lane in the two lane. area. I go you turn on him, got a couple of. cars between me and him. I passed them, do not have lights and. siren. I catch up to two or three cars, probably about a mile, half a mile No,

half a mile before the bridge here. Right here, he is all over the road, taking all lanes, taking all shoulders. Obviously not paying attention. You got. people waving me by, yielding over. I. don't even have lights on at this point. Right, I hit the lights, hoping to get. him stopped before we got on the bridge. Followed him for probably 200 yards. before Bay Harbor entrance. Right all. the way here before he stops, and. obviously when I went up to the car, you. smell the odor. He's all over the road, he's not paying attention. All right, sweet. Well, thank you very. much, Colonel. It's a Thank you, appreciate it. Good case. Appreciate it.

Like I said, unfortunately you got two. little kids, but they're probably alive. because of you. Yeah, yeah, I mean I. Yeah, like I said, and I think I told. you, I asked him where he going cuz he's. going to buy an He had a. He had vertical nystagmus, which you. only see above a .15. He had onset at. about 25°. If I had to guess, he's about a .25. I I. wouldn't I wouldn't surprise cuz like I. said, when I told him you can't get to. Miami going this way, he wanted to argue. with me. Watch, if he blows and I'm. right, I'm going to I'm going to send. you an email. Thank you, Colonel. Yes, sir.

With Deseroth now in the back of the. police car, Deputy Lane then checks in. on the two children in the back seat of. the truck. He learns they are only 7 and. 9 years old. So, look, that your dad made a little bit of a. mistake, okay? I'm guessing you guys probably. know that because you were in the car. with him for the ride. Can you tell me Do you know where you. guys went or anything? Or what his What your dad was doing. today cuz. I don't know what's wrong with him, but. he I think he's drunk.

I don't know if he drank something or. He what? I can't hear you. A resort. What resort were you at? You don't know? Do you Do you know if he was Has he been. okay today? Has he been acting weird? So, what happens here? Well, neither of. the kids has their own cell phone, but. the good news is fortunately one of them. knows their mom's cell phone number, so. Deputy Lane gets in touch with her. She's in Miami. She agrees to meet up at.

a substation to collect them. That's the. good news. We go back to the defendant. here. In the meantime, the other officer. on scene reports to Deputy Lane that. Deseroth is out of control in the back. seat, allegedly banging his head against. the interior of the patrol car and. demanding to speak to Lane. What, man? Lane. Put. me up front, then. No, dude, the way you're acting No, cuz. you're cuffing me. Bro, you're trying to like destroy the the.

Sheriff's car right now. No, I'm not. cuff me up front if you're going. to cuff me. Look, if you really still. want to have your job after this, you. need to stop this. Then cuff me up. front. >> No. That's not our policy. Our policy is. that you're handcuffed in the back. Then take me somewhere. I I am. We're. trying to work out how we're going to. get your And you're making it a lot more. difficult cuz you're sitting back here. acting like a child. Stop, man. Then put the air on. The air. is on. No, it's not. >> Well, every time I roll the window down.

and open up my door, what do you think. happens to all the AC? I get some Exactly. I get some air. Watch your hand. No, stop stop banging on the windows. If. you want the AC to reach back to you It. doesn't. Lane. It will eventually. So, you'd rather have the window down like. this? Yeah, I would. Okay, fantastic. Lane. Yeah. What? Dude, there's nothing to talk. about. And there is. There's not, man. We don't have anything to talk about. after this. Yeah, we do, Lane.

Lane. Hey, um so, this is an ICE agent out of. Miami. [Music]. Uh he's DUI, he's pretty drunk. Um he's. got two little kids in the back, 7 and. The mom is going to start driving down. from Miami. Um Markins said he would relay the kid. north. I was going to see if you could. help set up a relay with Marathon to. relay this kid up north and just like. meet with the mom halfway.

Deputy Lane takes Deseroth to this. processing facility out in Key West, and. this allegedly drunk dad. just seemingly continues to argue with. him along the way, convinced that Deputy. Lane can somehow get him out of this. situation. And while the deputy doesn't. let Deseroth off the hook, he does give. him some tips about being locked up as a. law enforcement officer. Scott, do you. want to call your boss on your phone? Do you want to call your boss on your. phone?

If you make a phone call on the jail. phone, it records the conversation. So, if you want, I I have both your. phones and your wallet. If you want, I can call your boss for. you like on the hood of my car and you. can talk to him. Or you can get your. the phone number out of your phone. inside the jail, but. again, any calls you make inside the. jail, that's recorded, so.

I just don't want to make I want to make. sure you don't say something dumb. Anyway, what what happened, we're going. to go to the jail. We're going to go into the breath test. room. There's the Intoxilyzer 8000, the. breath test instrument. Uh we'll do two. breath tests, and then after that, I. will turn you over to the jail staff. They are going to take the handcuffs off. you, and they're going to sit you by. yourself since you're law enforcement,

and a cell by yourself in the clothes. you're wearing right now. And then after I'm done with my arrest. report, I'm going to turn that into the. jail, and then that's me officially. turning custody of you over to the jail. The jail will then take your mug shot, fingerprint you, uh. tattoos, they'll take pictures of. tattoos. Actually, I'm not sure if they do that. for misdemeanors, but. um they'll book you into the jail, basically. You'll get your own cell by.

yourself. Um. Scott, I I swear to God, I really am. doing everything that I can. That's why I'm saying that the best. thing, just the less talking as. possible, the.

There you go. Got it. All right. Now, according to Monroe County court. records, Deseroth was originally charged. with felony DUI and child endangerment. in circuit court, but the charges were. apparently downgraded and the case was. moved to county court, so he faces. charges right now that are listed as. misdemeanor DUI and resisting an officer. without violence. Many of the court. documents themselves are more. confidential in this case, but according. to local reporter Gwen Velosa, who. reviewed or apparently reviewed his.

arrest report, Desireth's blood alcohol. level came back as 0.17. That is more. than double the legal limit. One of the. documents that wasn't sealed is a motion. to lift pretrial conditions. In that. motion, Desireth's attorney laid out the. steps the defendant has taken to. essentially straighten himself out. And. this includes apparently attending. numerous AA meetings. As part of his. pretrial release, Desireth can't consume. alcohol, has to submit to being tested, and the motion reads, "Quote, recently.

we had the defendant volunteer to use a. portable breath device three times per. day to show that he's not drinking. The. device is a Soberlink device." The. September motion also gave an update on. his employment. "Quote, the defendant is. an ICE agent. ICE has not terminated. him, but is expecting alcohol. treatment."
