What a pric k, I mean Im sure the argument will be he did know if she was dangerous, but I think it was a bit much. He practicly pulled her out of the car. He had to tell her put it in park. and the comment "now you wont see him, because you are going to jail" was Chat Icon

I understand that she should have never left when he pulled her over - but he should have been a little more understanding that her dad just had a heart attack Chat Icon

Re: I can't believe this story...

I think they are both idiots!!Chat Icon

She is an azz for pulling off, and he needed to recognize her "state of mind".
She was obviously distraught and not thinking clearly.

I'm biased as my DH is a cop but he didn't know who this lady was, she took off on him 1x he was ultimately protecting himself but he clearly used excessive force.

Now... if this lady had a knife or a weapon, could have been lying etc. his behavior would have been warranted.

You just never know what kind of person you are dealing with.

Exactly. I haveto wonder what kind of excuses cops hear these days, not saying he is right but she drove away whenshe shouldn't have. If she could have just been calm for a few little minutes.

Re: I can't believe this story...

it seems that i'm a minority here.

i saw it on good morning america. she was on this morning.

i fell that SHE is the one who was wrong! he doesn't know who/what she is or if she's lying. his life is on the line every day.

yes, he was a bit rough, but put yourself in his shoes. how many cops don't get KILLED when they pull someone over.

she should have just sat there and let hime do his job quickly. it's not like she could save her father's life at that point.

I do agree that she did need to be cuffed and restrained at that point without questions asked.

Was he supposed to have a conversation with her @ that point?Chat Icon

I also saw her this morning.

She was turning into the entrance to the hospital so that is your first clue that she is not lying.

And her reasoning was that he had all her info and they could give her the ticket later.

I would not have sat there and waited for him to write a ticket while thinking my father was dying.

I think she only had her father on her mind and him possibly dying not the cop.

The cop was suspended so obviously he was in some wrong.

that's circumstantial evidence

that's not really proof that she isn't lying because she pulls into the lot

not necessarily - this is just a formality of a slap on the wrist so that they don't get sued

so did she, which caused him to react, because there was no way for him to know if she was lying and she did nothing to help her case

Re: I can't believe this story...

cops must hear every excuse in the book and if you think about it that is not a very original one. (even though it was true).

But she was wrong for driving away...that was way dumb.

I think he was a little harsh for pulling her out of the car and the comment about her dad was not so nice, but technically regardless of circumstances she was wrong.

I just feel that some cops throw around there power and use excessive force way too often.

i'll agree with that - but in this case, it was justified, because he had no way of knowing what he was dealing with.
