Copper Stopper
In 2024, Crimebodge released his highly anticipated book, Copper Stopper, a comprehensive guide to legal self-defence strategies against police misconduct, misuse of force, and abuse of power. Spanning over 340 pages and containing approximately 120,000 words, the book is a meticulously researched manual aimed at empowering readers to navigate encounters with law enforcement and related officials.
Copper Stopper addresses practical scenarios such as interactions with police officers, PCSOs, street wardens, security guards, bailiffs, debt collectors, TV Licensing agents, and local authorities. The content is specifically designed to assist readers in understanding their rights and protecting themselves in everyday situations, including:
- Handling police stops and interrogations
- Avoiding malicious arrests and illegal searches
- Removing personal data from police records
- Taking legal action against misconduct or corruption
- Identifying and securing competent legal representation
The book is unique in its scope and detail, drawing upon the expertise of legal practitioners, solicitors, and advocacy groups. Its release marked the culmination of two and a half years of full-time work by Crimebodge, during which he temporarily stepped back from creating YouTube content to focus on this project.
Published exclusively in paperback, Copper Stopper represents a significant step in Crimebodge’s ongoing mission to combat law enforcement abuses. All proceeds are reinvested into initiatives such as High Court cases, civil lawsuits, and free legal support services for the public. Future plans may include an audiobook version based on demand.
Subscribers to the Crimebodge website received early access to pre-orders, with the first print run reserved for this audience. For anyone seeking a thorough, no-nonsense guide to standing up to unlawful practices, Copper Stopper is described as an indispensable resource.
