” Is it just your default position that every time someone makes a mistake”

It is not a mistake when you lie on the arrest citation.

Scheffler’s income is based on his reputation. He could lose more than the few bucks to have his lawyers clear him.

There's not one sponsor that would drop him due to this silly, misdemeanor traffic violation (if at all) and you know it.

Give it up

I do not see where he should pay ANY FINE.

HE was told one thing-—Cops were told another thing.

What did Scheffler do wrong???

He has a felony assault charge.

This reminds me of an encounter I had as I drove to work early one morning. I saw a couple of police cars ahead and one of them was parked diagonally in the opposing lane of the road I was about to head down. My lane was wide open, so I proceeded to turn in to it. The cop standing by his car nearly had a stroke jumping up and down, shouting and gesturing with both arms for me to get away from that lane and turn around now!! I suppose he thought it was very obvious that he was blocking the whole road - but it was certainly not obvious to me.

sounds like he might have been guilty of driving while while, but it sure looks like legal actions are going to continue.

Re: "Scheffler has a felony assault charge."

A Black, plain clothes detective, was trying to yank open Scheffler's driver door, after a uniformed officer told Scheffler to drive that exact route.

The Black female Chief of Police is playing the Race Card.
