Phony Deputy Pulled Real Detective Over
Matthew Joseph Erris had the works on his vehicle: red and blue lights in the grill, light bar on the top, and Airsoft pistol. He didn’t stop there. He actually went out and tried to play cop. He ended up pulling a real undercover detective over. The real detective contacted 911 and reported the phony law enforcement vehicle. Not long after this, the phony deputy got pulled over.
From USA Today:
Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office (Facebook)
OOPS: When 26-year-old Matthew Joseph Erris decided to play cop, turn on his red and blue lights and pull somebody over, he had no idea the other driver was a REAL undercover HCSO detective! Deputies did a REAL traffic stop on Erris. They found an airsoft pistol under his passenger seat. Erris is now facing a charge for impersonating a law enforcement officer.
It’s unclear how many times he has done this in the past. Anyone who recognizes his vehicle and believes they may have been a victim should contact the Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office at 813-247-8200

A winner of the dumbass award of the month for this clown…..
Too bad he didn’t try to arrest the off duty cop and try to pull a firearm on him.
I would imagine that he will be receiving a Darwin Award at some time in the future…
Florida Man strikes again!
Idiot.
D’oh!
Ah, the continuing adventures of Floridaman, the world’s worst superhero™️!
Yep, the superhero we neither want nor deserve.
How? How do these phony cops seem to always manage to pull over a real under cover/off duty officer? Karma just wanting to have a giggle and make use of that extra large jar of lube?
Could be that because if you are a police officer, you may be more likely to be speeding so the person pulls you over.
Remember this video?

Of this one on an “investigation” by ABC?

It is no wonder that fake cops are pulling over real speeding cops.
Must be the Florida water and that is why I have a genuine super duper neato, boss(NYC term) under the sink water purifier so I won’t have any bad posts written about me in the comment section.
He does wear the wife-beater well, I’ll give him that.
Looks like he has enough gray mater between his ears to breathe…
He did it to support the Hillsborough County police officers. He loves cops.
Got caught pulling over a real Cop. ERR IS what he did to get caught.
Was there some sort of distinction between neuroses and psychoses about people who imagine things and those who act them out?
Perhaps: The difference between a psychotic and neurotic is that a psychotic thinks two and two is five, whereas a neurotic knows two and two is four – but HATES it.
Haha! Sounds like a symptom of transgender derangement syndrome.
Bubba, Tiny and many other inmates will be entertained playing hide the “nightstick” with him.
Who gets to wield the “nightstick” first? Bubba or Tiny?
And is that with or without lube?
They’re going in dry.
Both, they’ll try to meet in the middle.
Dumbass. My Baby Girl is a Teacher (remedial Ed) in Hillsborough Co. They gots them some real winners down there….and they gots them some Einsteins like this one too.
HEY Y’ALL. If you’re reading make a comment of some type. Anything. Let Admin know you here.

Ass hamster 1st class
Holy Shit! How do we get this many ass clowns in Florida? Am I the only normal one that lives here? I am beginning to think so, I see these stories all the time. Awhile back we had a 17 year old playing doctor at a local hospital and nobody caught on! He was actually treating patients, after that, he got arrested for playing a cop as well, teh stoopid is strong in Floriduh!!
