Drunk Driving Suspect Sobs, Apologizes for Death of NYPD Officer
epoch times ^ | 28 April A.D. 2021 | Jack Philips

A woman who allegedly crashed into a New York City Police Department officer during a drunk-driving incident, killing him, apologized as she was led away from a police precinct in handcuffs.

Jessica Beauvais, 32, was charged with two counts of vehicular manslaughter, reckless endangerment, leaving an accident resulting in death, and driving while intoxicated, the NYPD told news outlets on Tuesday. The crash left 14-year NYPD veteran Anastasio Tsakos dead.

The Epoch Times has contacted the NYPD for comment.

Beauvais was driving on a suspended driver’s license during the time of the crash, officials said, adding that in all, her license was suspended 14 times and she had been cited for violations in the past, reported Fox News

When she was approached by reporters as she was being taken away by officers in Queens, Beauvais appeared to apologize.

“I am sorry that I hit him and that he’s dead,” she said, crying. “I didn’t mean to. I’m sorry.”

“I was coming from the studio,” she added to the reporters. “I do a podcast.”

Beauvais was seen on Facebook Live apparently drinking alcohol and uttering anti-police epithets while listening to the N.W.A. song, “[Expletive] the Police.” In the video, she appears to be wearing the same clothing she was wearing outside the precinct when she apologized.

“What bothered me is that we had to go through a trial to prove that George Floyd didn’t [expletive] kill himself,” Beauvais says in the video, according to the New York Daily News.

Officials told the paper that Tsakos was a father of two young children.

She was driving on a suspended license?
That should be considered a murder.

Since she apologized we should send her to free college and give her a home. Plus, $26m.

The perp.

Beauvais was driving on a suspended driver’s license during the time of the crash, officials said, adding that in all, her license was suspended 14 times and she had been cited for violations in the past, reported Fox News.

I guess she must have been expressing her white privilege. /sarc

She’s not sorry about killing the cop, she’s sorry she got caught.

Depends on how she is connected. With the right connections she will never see the inside of a prison.

“I am sorry that I hit him and that he’s dead,” she said, crying. “I didn’t mean to. I’m sorry.”

The first step toward exoneration in New York City.

Sad to say I used to listen to that garbage. At least then NWA was new, hip and edgy and I was just a stupid kid less than half her age following my peers.

For her it was a statement of political views. Won't be surprised if those political views get her off light.

Most likely nothing will happen to this garbage heap of a human being. Frontier justice needs to be imposed.

Only after she learned that she wouldn’t be considered a hero of the revolution by the police, and released without ID, like the murderer of Ashli Babbitt.

How did she even manage to get a license to get it suspended? I thought DEMS told us it is too difficult for minorities to get any form of ID.

Finally, a situation she can’t intimidate others to get out
of.

Must be a harsh reality to wake up to, for the first time in
her life.

She can’t blame this on the officer, society being unfair,
racism, or some other canard to confuse the issue.

She screwed up, and everyone will see it as her screwing
up.
