And Schefer didn’t break any rules. Ok.
“A Louisville, Kentucky, police detective violated department policy by not turning on his body-worn camera while arresting Scottie Scheffler”
I suspect they deleted the video because it made them look bad.
Overzealous DEI cop
Helluva price to pay for being stylish.
Cop training 101: in any situation always issue conflicting commands.
Scottie is lucky he didn’t get shot!
“And Schefer didn’t break any rules. Ok.”
Did you just assume he was black? Or is it that cops are ALWAYS right?
The more things change, the more they stay the same.
The golfer will pay a fine and the whole episode will be swept under the rug.
imho, the best law enforcement officers are believers (i’ve been blessed to have three as close friends). they never allow emotion to rule them. they think of themselves as servants to the people. i’ve also rarely seen them show emotion under pressure once they became cops. always calm and collected.
Another article mentioned there was a fixed camera nearby that should have caught the initial action. Won’t know definitively till that is seen but an eye witness has already contradicted the cops statement in charging documents on several points of fact.
The video is on X, the cop lied in his report.
“I suspect they deleted the video because it made them look bad.”
I’m no expert but I read once that body cameras are always on partly because by the time a cop realizes he needs the video, important events prior to his turning it on might have not been recorded.
The camera is running, but it retains only the past few minutes unless explicitly activated by the cop.
Dirty Harry predicted the DEI disaster 50 years ago.
“The golfer will pay a fine and the whole episode will be swept under the rug.”
He won’t pay.
Miss Gray was perfectly cast. :)
Thanks for the heads up. Watched the video and it’s pretty hard to see what was going on but to me it appeared that the cop grabbed the side of the car, was pulled a few feet, let go and then ran up to the window as the vehicle stopped.
There were many other cops on scene, I wonder why none of them contradicted the lies supporting a felony charge that would have jailed Scheffler for years.
I guess Scottie doesn’t have to use the excuse he can’t breath ..?
Make him take a stroke and a bad lie and be done with it.
