Police have released body camera footage of “The View” co-host Sunny Hostin’s son, Gabriel Hostin, being detained by officers and cited for trespassing as Sunny tries to talk the cops out of citing her son last month. 

The 57-year-old mother referenced her past career as a federal prosecutor and her son’s Harvard credentials repeatedly while pleading with police to let him off without a ticket.

Gabriel Hostin is seen in the footage, dated June 16, being handcuffed after police found him jogging on the MTA tracks in New Rochelle, New York. He explains that “the gate was open,” but police released photos of the no trespassing signs he claims to have missed, according to TMZ.

During the encounter, he was on the phone with Sunny, whom he notified of the situation. “This cop is putting handcuffs on me,” he told his mother before telling police, “My mom’s a lawyer, by the way,” then asking for the arresting officer’s name and badge number.

“This is considered trespassing; it’s criminal trespass. The reason why it’s such a big deal, people get hit by a train all the time. We want to prevent it, obviously,” the officer explained. Sunny Hostin then could be heard on the phone, saying, “Tell them your mother is a federal prosecutor” before talking to the police herself. “I’m a former federal prosecutor; that’s my son, he’s a Harvard graduate,” she said.

It was previously reported that Hostin also tried to use her status as a television personality to get him off. “I am Sunny Hostin, I am on ‘The View,’” she said, according to sources who spoke to the New York Post..........more.........
