This is no coughing matter.
An intoxicated 28-year-old New Jersey woman intentionally hacked on a cop after crashing her car — telling the officer he now has the potentially deadly coronavirus, police said Tuesday.
Lea Piazza, of Wayne, NJ, was arrested Thursday and charged with driving while intoxicated after a single-car accident a few towns over in Hanover, police said.
When officers were processing the woman at headquarters, cops asked Piazza to cover her mouth while coughing.
“Oh, by the way, I have the coronavirus and so do you now,” snapped Piazza, before telling cops her New York boyfriend had the bug.

Once upon a time, the cops would beat people with sticks if they felt so inclined. I miss the old days.
Play her little game and book her for attempted murder.
The Greaseman used to refer to that as a “wood shampoo”.
That is considered assault, the same as spitting on someone.
At least assault with a deadly weapon.
Bill her for medical tests as well....
good old hickory shampoo. It saved so much time in the courts
I remember him when he was a DJ in Jacksonville, Fl.........................
What’s the big deal. It’s just a cold, just a mild flu bug. The cop is presumably young and healthy so he has nothing to worry about. No worries at all. /s
“Bailiff, give her a swirly.”
Some people should never drink.
The end of February, Washington State legislators voted to reduce the penalty for intentionally exposing a sexual partner to HIV. It hasn’t become law yet, but give it time. I doubt anything will happen to this woman.
And overtime costs for time to cover their isolation.
When the cops start shooting people that cough or sneeze, that’s when it’s time to panic.
“Bailiff, give her a swirly.”
A dirty swirly too.
Doncha just LOVE Millennials!
Three of the officers who came into contact with Piazza self-quarantined until Piazza’s boyfriend told authorities her comments were “100% false,” police said.
Piazza was also slapped with a charge of causing a false public alarm over her comments.
For some reason I don’t see cops jumping into crowds of over 50 people to disperse them. They will just fire tear gas if they can’t be verbally persuaded.
Cop should have coughed on her and ask her guess who has TB now.
