A Florida woman claims that police pulled her over for a minor traffic infraction, strip searched her on the side of the road, and “forcibly removed” a tampon that she was wearing....

The woman... filed a lawsuit against the Citrus County government, Sheriff Jeffrey Dawsey and six unknown officers last week seeking damages....

The policeman, the lawsuit says, then pulled her over, approached with his gun drawn and put Tarantino in handcuffs while her two small children — ages one and four — watched...

Over the next two hours, five other policemen arrived, including a female officer, and Tarantino was “frisked and strip searched twice at the side of the busy road, in plain view of passers by.” During one of these searches, the female officer “forcibly removed” the tampon...

managed to miss the entire two-hour show

Two hours for a rolling stop? Your own defense of them indicts the cops.

You believe, at face value, the perps allegation

You obviously didn't read just mouthing off. That makes you null and void.

You are a riot - going around commenting w/o reading the posts and telling others what not to believe, yet you believe six cops is OK. You just want to be ornery and add nothing.

Exactly. But either way, until the trial, is over - her life will be closely watched by, at least, all six cops for ‘anything’. They need to make her look less than admirable w/whatever and make it hit the local paper to taint the minds of the future jury. They have the upper hand now. She knows it and that alone is stressful to cause a ‘whoops!’.

Rest assured, I want justice here.

That would not include this woman being treated unfairly.

It wouldn’t include the officers getting off if their guilty either.

dash cams would, as you said, 'back up the perp or the cops'. So where are they?

Exactly. But some are here only to be argumentative.

Right now, the sheriff knows where those cops were at the time and has any back up - he should present it if he has it to prevent a costly trial. I'm sure if the Sheriff had enough 'amno', the lawyer would advise the woman to drop the case, the lawyer wants to get paid plus he does not want to be accused by the judged of taking on a frivolous lawsuit.

The least we have is one overly zealous cop for a rolling stop.. The policeman, the lawsuit says, then pulled her over, approached with his gun drawn and put Tarantino in handcuffs.

You said the dash cams would show who was telling the truth, yet you seem downright incurious about what they show. Care to tell us why?

You didn’t read the story or the lawsuit at the end. It’s a frivolous case in civil court. No problem at all with 6 cops being on the scene

Maybe one day, you’ll learn what you can’t do while handcuffed. Experience is the only way someone as clueless as you learns.

We don’t have rocket science here, they ‘imagine’ they can do anything while handcuffed.

I don’t have to assume anything about you. You have shown you are an idiot

This is a “CIVIL” suit. If there was a shred of evidence to back up the wild claims of this woman, it would be criminal. This is an old story from over a year ago. If her claims had any merit, the media would have been all over it. This story isn’t a story
