Jail Arc

Daniel's mugshot from his Evasion of Justice charge.

On February 3rd, 2024, Daniel Larson was arrested for evasion of justice and placed into Arapahoe County Jail, after repeatedly not showing up to court. This, being in violation of the terms of his PR bond, ended up getting multiple warrants put out for his arrest, which eventually led up to him being arrested. Unlike his previous arrests, the court had started to crack down on him after several failures to appear, putting him away in a jail with a $20,000 bond.

After several days, eventually adding up to weeks, of purposely missing court in favor of doing things such as going to UCLA college, and focusing on his "career" as a celebrity, Daniel was eventually arrested on the 3rd of February for evasion of justice.

Since his arrest, there have been many attempts to bond Daniel out of jail, attempt to make contact with him via phone calls, more so the former, though this has remained consistently unsuccessful.

The Arrest

Daniel went live earlier in the day of February 3rd, but just before the live stream ended, he claimed that a cop car went around the block 3 times looking for Daniel. However, he wasn't worried since he hadn't done anything bad. Abruptly, he said he's going into lockdown and the stream ended. This could have been chalked up to a simple delusion, but soon after, someone on the r/daniellarson subreddit claimed that Daniel got arrested whilst on the phone with Clark, his then manager

Daniel was arrested on a fugitive warrant, specifically Evasion of Justice which is commonly for evading a court prosecution which involves fleeing the state, such as a hearing. Daniel was booked in Arapahoe County in Colorado, where he would be placed into Boulder County Jail after a hearing on February 5th. His initial bail was set to $20,000. But due to it's high price, it is likely Daniel will have jail time.

On February 6th, user u/Impressive-Falcon856 posted body cam footage of Daniel being arrested, which was required after paying a sum of $174 USD. What is interesting is to note is that after more context from the footage was revealed that, while he had three already known warrants, Boulder went ahead and put the statewide warrant out for Daniel's arrest. The whole Aurora PD received an email brief about Daniel, along with his threats about shooting up a hospital, and were told to immediately apprehend him when seen. When arrested, his phone was also taken into evidence.

It is speculated that the authorities are they’re planning to make a case out of Daniel's various threats, public outbursts, and potentially, his Pedophilia.

How's your day going other than this? What kind of class? Oh, heck yeah, man, heck yeah. We're gonna take you straight up this way. You're gonna be good, man. What's up, baby sauce? This way? Okay. This is 21, thank you, sir. You got like three of them. The one that they want you for is the one that's out in, I believe, Boulder. Talking about a probation violation or something, so you clear that stuff out with them. It's gonna be all good, okay? Yeah. You got a bag? Do you know if my phone broke by any chance? I don't think, no, we got everything here. Your phone's right here, your charger's here. Do you know if the screen broke or anything? Nah, you're good, bro. Nah, it should be good, look. The phone. No, phone's right here. No, no, no. Okay. Okay, good. Here, I'm gonna lift your chair. Thanks for being cooperative, my man, I appreciate it, okay? We had a couple conversations at the mall, right? Yeah. Yeah. You're good, you're good. You got your, so you want to explain it to them real quick? Yeah. So what we're gonna do to you is issue a trespass from this mall. It is for life, so you're not welcome back. We have all your information here. We're just gonna get a picture of you, and then after today, you're just not welcome back here. Okay. So as long as you stay away from the mall, you should be all good, okay, brother? And it's for life? For life, yeah. Okay, so if you don't want to look at the camera real quick. So we got, you got a bag, property bag? I, oh, yeah. Okay, yeah, it's right here. You want to switch sides with me? Yeah, man, I got you, I got you. All right. All right, have a seat, bud. All right, Mr. Larson. You get those warrants and everything taken care of, and then we'll see you out here again, okay? Okay. All right, brother. I wasn't aware of the warrants. Okay. I am aware of the warrants. Okay. All right. All right. All right. All right. All right. All right. All right. I wasn't aware of the warrants. Okay. I just have been staying at a hotel. Okay. On this end of town. I got you. And I am, because I'm, like, self-employed. Okay. I didn't have enough money to get to the court. Gotcha. And all of my paperwork and all of my stuff is at the hotel. I got you. No worries. So the good thing about this is you're going to get one of these warrants cleared up, okay? Okay. There's two other warrants that's in the system for you right now. So make sure once you get... Denver and Denver, right? And Jefferson? Yeah. One is Denver and one is Jefferson. Once you get those cleared up, you ain't got nothing to worry about. Just if you ever in the future was to get a ticket, at least call them to let them know that you won't be able to make it and they can try to reschedule some stuff for you so you don't get those warrants cleared up. That's what I was actually working on doing as well. Okay. Already. Okay. I saw you guys in there. It's okay. And I was, like, I don't know if, because I was told that, like, I can't leave the state of Colorado. I got you. I thought I was following the rules. So I was, like, I am more than aware that you guys probably know about the warrant, but I didn't think that you guys could arrest me on the warrant. Some of the warrants are, some of them are listed, like, you know, either citywide or whatever, or statewide. The one that they wanted you on was a statewide. So anywhere in the state can pick you up on that one, which is why we can't charge you with the, or take you in on the other two. So that's why I'm just keeping you updated right now. When you get done with this one, make sure that you take care of the other two, okay? Because I don't want you getting jammed up again. Okay. All right? And do you know which jail? Yeah, our jail right across the street. Okay. Okay? And then I'll give you, since we made contact, I'm going to give you my business card or whatnot, okay? Do you know what type of warrant it is? It's a probation violation warrant. All right? Okay. Do you know if it's a bent warrant or? It's like a $20,000 warrant. Okay. All right? So just when you get down there, they'll probably be able to explain it a lot better than what I can. And then you just take it from there. Okay, brother? Okay. All right. I'll leave my business card inside the property bag or whatnot, and that'll be it. All right? Take care of yourself, brother. Do you know if it's like a PR or? I'm not too sure. Okay. Just when you get down there, ask them all that stuff, and they'll be able to tell you, okay? Okay. All right, brother. You take care of yourself, man. Oh, Lee. Hey, bro. Business card. Oh. What's the business card? Oh, it's garbage. I'm throwing it out. Oh, you got a business card? Oh, me? No. Well, actually, yeah, I do. Yeah. You want my business card? Yeah. Give it to everybody. Yeah. I got mine in here. I'm going to put it in the car. I appreciate you, bro. Yes, it's... Garbage. Hey, so I've got to sign this on the fugitive side, but if you have a report with him, I'd be... I mean, I can go down, I can book him, and I can do whatever you want me to do, or I don't know if you were planning on booking him or... I don't... Either or is fine. I don't... I'm okay. Bye, boss. All right. 2-18. We're off to the jail for the doorman. Copy. Yeah. Okay. Okay. Okay. Uh-huh. Yeah. Okay, do you want... Do you want to get checked out by medical? Okay. Okay. Yeah. Yeah, I'm guessing the main thing is they tell you that so you don't stiff up and raise your arms. Do you want a sergeant to meet us at the jail? It's right over here. You can tell them your concerns if you wish. You want to do that? Okay. 2-18 to Cruiser 21. Yeah. Here. I'll have him stop by here. 2-18, I'm trying to race Cruiser 21. 2-18, I'm trying to race Cruiser 21. Uh-huh. Out of Boulder. Okay. How what works? Yeah, so that means that at some point you were given some type of protection order with stipulations. You broke a certain stipulation, maybe more than one, and therefore they issue a warrant. Yeah, this is not one of those. No. Yes. Boulder, so they'll take you to Boulder. Okay. 2-18 to Cruiser 21 on channel 2. Okay. 4-44. 4-44, I just want to please say 2-18, go back to active angle over there. Great, 4-44. 2-18 on tag. Cruiser 21, are you here? Hey, Sergeant, can you meet me at the jail? Gentleman here would like to talk to you about the way he was arrested. Okay. Uh-huh. Yeah. So, I didn't really have time to really like message him. Okay. And, uh, he asked me to get him after I missed going to meet him as well. Okay, I don't think, I'm not sure this has to do anything with that at all. It could be. It could be that one of the stipulations is that you are to meet him every so and so. I can't really tell you. It's Boulder again, so I don't know how they do things there, you know? Right. Wow. What you got? I got a... Hmm. Yeah. What questions do you have? I'm Sergeant Davis. I was one that was there. So, hi. So, when I was met with the officers that arrested me... Uh-huh. They grabbed both my arms and put them behind my back. Uh-huh. It's called arrest control. Right. Okay. I feel like it was kind of aggressive. It may have been a little aggressive. Yes. Okay, do you know what kind of warrants you have? I do, yes. Okay. Do you think that due to the fact that you have a history of being violent with other people, that maybe that's why they did that? Because here's the thing. Right. If they do that, and then that keeps you from being violent, then that keeps you from being hurt, doesn't it? Right. Okay. And I agree. Okay. I just feel like it was aggressive for the meaning of what they were trying to do at that time. I feel like if I was being aggressive, then I feel like that makes sense. Okay, did you make statements that you were going to shoot up the Aurora Mall? I did not. Okay. On TikTok, you did not do that? No. Okay. Well, that's possibly one of the things that you got these warrants on, is because of that. Okay? So that's up for debate, but that's the information that we have. So we don't know if you're armed. We don't know what other weapons you may have on you. So what…What do you use to, what part of your body do you use if you're going to use a weapon? You would use your hands, right? I would use my hands. Exactly. So we want to have control of your hands. And so for our arrest control and the way that we do arrest controls, we gain control of the hands and there's certain ways that we do that. It's a twist lock and sometimes it's uncomfortable, right? It's not the most comfortable hold to have your hand twisted like this, okay? But what does that keep you from doing? Keeps you from fighting, huh? Right. Okay. Yes. All right. I, another thing is I am extremely popular on social media, so it doesn't surprise me that one of my fans would have called the Aurora Mall and then claimed I said something I didn't because that happens all the time as well. Okay. All right. All right. So I'll give you my card, my business card, okay? Okay. If you have a logic complaint, there's a complaint number on the back or you can call me directly, okay, from the card if you have any other questions, okay? I would tell you that you're probably going to get a better return as far as someone talking to you if you just call me if you have any other questions, okay? Okay. All right. Does that work? That works. Okay. Thank you. So, you good, Alexis? Oh, definitely. So we'll put this in your property, wherever he has, where's your property at? I'll go get it in the car. Okay. You lay right there, it's fine. Yeah. So he'll, this will be in there. Okay. Any other questions for me? Not really. I mean, I know how the jail process works. Okay. And it's kind of not great. But I was going to go ahead and also call my probation officer and let him know, like, this is why I can't do this. Okay. They'll probably do that for you. Okay. They'll call in and do all that stuff. But just ask them, make sure that they do call your probation officer, okay? Okay. All right? Yes. Any other questions for me? Nope. I think I'm good. Okay. Just hope I get out and I can go about my day or whatever. Do what I need to do and go back to my probation officer. Okay. That's my hope. Okay. All right. Thank you. Thank you. All right. He's grabbing stuff out of the car real quick. Okay. 26. That's swings. Crews 21, he's out getting something from the car. Do you know if I'm going to be transferred or I'm going to be booked here or I'm going to be booked here? What's that? Do you know like if I'm going to be booked here or transferred? Yeah, so you're booked here and then they'll transfer you to where that warrant is out of. And then I'll get booked there. Yeah, I don't know how that works. I don't know how the jurisdictions work as far as that goes, but that's usually what they do. They have their own booking process. So you'll go through that. I haven't been in here over here. It hasn't changed a lot. It's still the same nasty green color and well, actually, the color used to be kind of cool. But now it's so related to this dirty and nasty. Yeah, just like we're going back and forth, handcuffing him to the bench. So now we're back to handcuffing him to the bench at all times. Okay. Benches are kind of low. Okay. They are. Okay. Yeah, I got it. So I don't know if those are the new ones. So I have the warm one on the top there. So this is a wrap out and then wrap and then Adams. And Adams, we don't have to get the charges applied. Hopefully there isn't one. Yeah. No notaries. Of course not. Go ahead. They kind of simplified it. I don't know if they've, the last one that I looked at looked about the same, but it looks, it's supposedly a lot easier to fill it out. Warmest arrest affidavits. Is probation violation a felony or a mistake? Depends. Okay. This one is a mistake. Yeah. Okay. Yep. You good? Yeah. Okay. Thank you. Did you need any? So what was he calling you about? I guess 116 is dealing with a possible child abduction. And I guess everybody and their mamas there speak Spanish. So I'm the only Spanish speaker in the city probably. An actual abduction. It sounds like it. Yeah. Okay. All right. Let's see what we got on that. Shit. Yep. Sir. End of contact. End of contact. Okay. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

Fan behavior

Bond out Attempts

There have been numerous attempts made to bond out Daniel from his stay in jail by using GoFundMe. While many of these gofundme campaigns have been made, there hasn't been any money donated towards the 20,000 dollar bond.

Court appearances

Possible first appearance

On February 5, 2024, a "Daniel Larson" was scheduled to appear in court, which would have been live streamed. During the brief moments that the live stream was up Reddit users report a lawyer stating that this was not the Daniel Larson they were looking for. A lot of people believe that the lawyer was lying in an attempt to avoid having rowdy people in the live stream, however there does seem to be some evidence to suggest that it was actually different Daniel. Evidence includes him not being in Boulder county at the time according to vinelink, and Daniel stating that he didn't have a public defender in a leaked call that took place a day after this "court appearance". Nonetheless the live stream was shut down by the court due to trolls.

February 13 no show

On February 13, 2024, Daniel was scheduled to appear in Jefferson County Court at for case C302023M6716. The intent of this appearance was an arraignment but due to being in jail in Arapahoe County Daniel did not appear, the judge set a new date for March 27

February 14 appearance

On February 14, 2024, Daniel appeared in court for a hearing on advisement. According to Reddit user /u/EffectiveRun-8848 During the hearing Daniel's attorney stated that he had been diagnosed with autism and PTSD, and that Daniel had friends assisting him with finding shelter via motels. They also told the judge that Daniel had made money on TikTok through his fame. The judge ordered a psychological evaluation and a new court date February 23. Daniel's bond was set to $5,000 with a $500 cash option.

Future appearances

Performing a six-month search on the Colorado Judicial Branch website for "Daniel Larson" returns two future dates: an "Rtrn on Summ for Rev of Prob" for case C72023M1704 in Boulder County on March 1, 2024, and a review hearing for case D72023DR823 also in Boulder County on April 4, 2024. Without obtaining the case details, which are accessible for a fee, it is difficult to determine the alleged offenses associated with these appearances.

Due to being in jail not in Jefferson County and missing his court date he has a third set for March 27.

For his charge carrying the $20,000 bond there is a court date February 15

Time in Jail

First call

On February 8 2024 Flexburger shared a phone conversation between Clark and Daniel while he was in the detention facility. The call took place on February 6.

Call begins at 1:13

Transcript

Automated voice: Hello, this is a call from Daniel Larson an inmate at the detention facility Daniel: Thank god, okay, yeah so apparently this all pretty much Bob's fault, but it's because, don't tell him this...but it's because I haven't been going to my, um, probations meetings because he won't give me my money to be able to get there Clark: Okay so I have a couple of things to tell you I guess because I don't know have you had any contact with the outside world yet? Daniel: No I haven't Clark: Well uh, sadly Toby Keith passed away Daniel: Who? Clark: The guy who sings red solo cup Daniel: Right so Toby Keith passed away...what the hell? Clark: Yeah [laughs] well how's- well how's... so how are you doing so far? Daniel: Well sigh I am doing okay Clark: Do they have you in general population like with a bunch of people? Daniel: I guess it's considered protected custody general population Clark: Oh okay Daniel: Yeah so I am not quite sure, but everyone is friendly, everyone is kind, I'm getting some help from the inmates, you know, trying to cope but...Yeah I don't-I don't know why they put my bond so high Clark: I know! $20,000!? Daniel: Worst case scenario yeah, and I don't think I'm going to be here too long Clark: No, I mean max, is what I was looking into and I think 120 days Daniel: Well that's a 100 a max of 120 days is still a decent time but... Clark: I mean yeah that's scary Daniel: Um, yeah it is scary, but..yeah Clark: Your body cam footage just came out like 2 hours ago Daniel: Wait a minute so the fans leaked my camera footage? Clark: Yup, all of it Daniel: From the jail? Clark: Yeah they put hands on you...hard! Daniel: Oh yeah-yeah they did-they did Clark: And you also called me a minute before it happened so I placed all those pieces together Daniel: Yeah and did you see how the phone dropped? Clark: Yeup and you were asking if your phone was broken, yup Daniel: Yeah that's crazy the fans leaked all the camera footage Clark: All of it Daniel: Did they also leak the ones from the jail? Clark: Yup, when they are asking you the questions in jail, and they even leaked stuff you couldn't hear where the cops are talking about how you are big on TikTok, and how you pulled the fire alarm, and you have all these people on TikTok that follow you, and then there was an ununiformed police officer who I honestly think was MacDougall, was MacDougall there? Daniel: I don't- I don't think it was Daniel MacDougall, but I do believe it was somebody from the FBI Clark: Yeah, and I do- I did see your friend too, the like- the black security guard? They were telling, the other cops were scared to approach you. They were like "he could be armed and dangerous!" and the one guy was like "we could get this done in five minutes." It's like a whole thing, they like surrounded you in the mall! It was crazy. Daniel: Yeah, yeah. Yeah, I don't know why they were acting the way they acted. But anyways, yeah. So, *sighs*, I'm... I'm okay, uhh... Clark: Thank god! Daniel: Yeah, um.. my main concern is, you know, just how we're going to get this taken care of, you know? Clark: Exactly. Daniel: Um, I know for a fact Bob can't do it all, um, you know? I don't know if Grace can, I don't know, you know *sighs* I think it's gonna take a team effort, but... Clark: I mean, if we already got in contact so far, we're off to a good start. Daniel: Yeah, yeah. I probably shouldn't even say this, but it's not a problem, but whatever. But I also, um, haven't even a public defender yet. Clark: Geez! Daniel: They're saying that as far as safety goes, they are not allowed to tell me when I'm being transferred, which does make sense. < Clark: Sheesh! Well, yeah cause they don't want your fans coming to bust you out while you're being transferred. Daniel: Yeah Clark: And also, your mugshot's gone viral too. Daniel: (chuckling) My mugshot? Clark: Yeah, it's viral! Daniel: So, so, so... cause I'm in general population. Did they leak those those pho- those videos too? Clark: No, no, there's no videos of you with like other prisoners, just getting checked in. Daniel: Just getting checked in. Wow, okay. Well I mean the fans are go- the fans have done that before. Clark: True.Daniel: But... and I mean there's nothing I can do, you know? Clark: Have you been eating well? Or... Daniel: Uh, I've been eating OK. Is Grace OK? Clark: Yeah. Oh my God, she was shocked! And I was like, cause we didn't think- we thought you would be out by the morning and then everything just kept getting worse and worse. Daniel: Right. Clark: Um, you- so what have you been doing to fill your time? Have you been writing songs or working o- Daniel: I can, I can write songs, um, at the point I would probably, now that I have contact and I can confirm that. Clark: I was gonna say that! Daniel: My main concern is just trying to, you know, keep getting the bail stuff. Clark: Exactly. I mean, and I can also leave messages to the community for you. Like if you want to say anything to the Reddit or anything, I can like, tell them, you know? Daniel: Yeah. Uh, what I would- what I would say if we said anything to the community is, uh, if we could try to help, like all with teamwork to try to pay the bail? Clark: Yeah. I agree, I'm gonna try and get on that straight away. Daniel: What I would do is set up a Venmo, um, CashApp and GoFundMe, and I mean GRIND, you know? Clark: Yeah.Daniel: I'm pretty s- I'm pretty sure it will get up there fast if people grind. Clark: And, and..Daniel: You know, like, like give it like, 4 days max. Clark: Exactly, and another thing is you could even like, you know how the famous artists, sometimes they like, they pu- they do stuff over the phone, like music and everything. Daniel: Well, I don't- like we probably can't do that, but that doesn't stop me from.. Clark: True. Daniel: ...being able to publish lyrics. Clark: True! Daniel: You know how- you know how artists have done that before. Clark: There's no stopping. Daniel: Like, anyways, I don't- I don't wanna waste our... Clark: True Daniel: ...you know, time and money right now, alright? Clark: OK Daniel: I will, I will call you in the morning. Clark: OK Daniel: Alright?

But when I'm in the cell, I'm either just like, waiting or you know, very at the feeling thinking, you know, but... Clark: Geez! Daniel: I will probably start working on lyrics. I was- my big concern right now, just about college. I thought I lost contact with you. Clark: Don't worry, Daniel. I never give up. Daniel: Yeah. Clark: I- I knew what I had to do. Daniel: Is Grace freaking out though? Clark: Yeah, she is... Daniel: OK Clark: ...and so is the whole UCLA thing cause the votes came in later that day and you won, but then since you were nowhere to be seen, Cheng took over. So you gotta take your place back once you get out. Daniel: Well... well, yeah and that's not good because I mean, we already know his rules and stuff for UCLA for the government, Clark: Yeah. Daniel: Is like... technically it should be in violation of the US. Clark: It- yeah I don't understand. Daniel: Like, like I don't know why he wants to put like damn dog, even though it is legal to eat dog in like China, I don't know why he's trying to get that in the US now. Clark: Psh, yeah, that's weird. Daniel: And he's an international student. Who knows if he's lying or not to the entire school just so he can run for student government. I don't know. Clark: True, and then did you meet- have you met some friends? You said you were playing cards so... it's like war? Daniel: I... I haven't really, I don't want to call them friends, but I- I've met some nice people. Clark: Yeah... yeah. Daniel: I grew up myself with the people I... don't wanna say I trust, but I feel comfortable with. Clark: Yeah, and is your cellmate a nice person? Daniel: My cellmate is okay. Sometimes I- I feel like I would do better in my own cell but other times I feel like company is better. Clark: Yeah, yeah. Daniel: But, um, what i've been told, um... it's just what I've been told by the other cellmates th- Automated Voice: You have one minute remaining. Clark: Oh shoot! Daniel: Yeah, um... yeah, but anyways, I'll talk to you tomorrow, okay? Clark: Okay, I'll be ready. Daniel: Alright. Clark: Alright. Daniel: Bye. Clark: Stay safe, Daniel.
