A drunk Oklahoma State Representative was filmed telling cops they couldn’t detain him while the state legislature was in session after being caught drinking outside a closed bar at 2.11am last Thursday.

Republican Rep. Dean Davis, 50, had been drinking with friends at the bar in Broken Arrow, Oklahoma, when police officers arrived. The police say he and his friends were refusing to leave the bar, which had closed, and were drinking on the outdoor patio.

Bodycam footage shows the officers putting a befuddled Davis in handcuffs while he protested and told them to call their supervisors. He told them they weren’t allowed to arrest him, claiming he was ‘privileged from arrest during the session of the Legislature’.
