Defense asks if Rivera's "being afraid for his family," was fear of the police. Rivera just says that he was afraid of what might happen to his family.
The discussion then returns to the minutes of the traffic stop. Rivera recalls Lindsey telling him of the problem with an "open container" unit. Rivera, when asked, says again that he was not afraid of the drugs.
Defense asks if when he was arrested if he was scared of being charged with killing a police officer. Rivera says yes.
Rivera says he thought Lindsey was trying to help him out by offering to follow Rivera back to John Street.
Defense asks if it's true that the officer, despite the open warrant container, was going to allow Rivera to drive without a license to John Street, where Rivera could have left the car with Diaz and follow Lindsey to take care of the warrant fine. This offer from Lindsey came when Rivera couldn't get through to Diaz, Rivera said.
